糧不繼日 [liáng bù jì rì] [liang bu ji ri]—
Food supplies (糧食 [liang shi]) were critically scarce, making it impossible to sustain ourselves. From Chapter 43 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms (《三國演義 [san guo yan yi]》): "Indeed, even with incomplete armor and weapons (甲兵 [jia bing]), unsecured city walls and fortifications (城郭 [cheng guo]), untrained troops (軍 [jun]), and provisions (糧 [liang]) that would not last for days, yet at Bowang (博望 [bo wang]) we burned their camps, and at Baihe (白河 [bai he]) we used water (to defeat them), causing Xiahou Dun (夏侯惇 [xia hou dun]), Cao Ren (曹仁 [cao ren]), and their like to be utterly terrified. I humbly submit that the military strategies of Guan Zhong (管仲 [guan zhong]) and Yue Yi (樂毅 [le yi]) might not have surpassed this."

糧不繼日:糧食極度缺乏,無以為繼。《三國演義》第四三回:「夫以甲兵不完,城郭不固,軍不經練,糧不繼日,然而博望燒屯,白河用水,使夏侯惇、曹仁輩心驚膽裂:竊謂管仲、樂毅之用兵,未必過此。」

liang bu ji ri: liang shi ji du que fa, wu yi wei ji. < san guo yan yi> di si san hui: "fu yi jia bing bu wan, cheng guo bu gu, jun bu jing lian, liang bu ji ri, ran er bo wang shao tun, bai he yong shui, shi xia hou dun,, cao ren bei xin jing dan lie: qie wei guan zhong,, le yi zhi yong bing, wei bi guo ci."
