A Night Of Planning II

As the morning turned to afternoon and afternoon turned to evening, the camp began to settled down for the night. 

Paeris walked into General Pho's tent to report about the supplies they got from the fort.

"Sir."

"Hmm?" Pho was looking over the route they will take in the Steppes.

"Lieutenant Gen. Bihice was able to give us everything we had on our list. We can leave whenever you are ready."

Pho smiled brightly at this news. If he had to send a squadron out to get half of their supplies, they would have had to stay here for four more days, at least.

"Good. Tell the soldiers to dress accordingly for trip into the Steppes. It's still winter time there though it won't be as cold."

"Yes, sir."

"...and notify the clan leaders that we will be leaving at first light, anyone who is not ready will be left behind."  I will not have these nobles ruining my plan because they want tea!
