Chapter 252: Suspicion and Stirring Up (2)

Joel had a sneer on his face and said, "I see...... It's you who really won't last long. ”

Hart was stunned and looked at Joel blankly.

Joel added: "Ai Sakura Castle is both the central institution of Ai Sakura City and the residence of the city lord, do you think there will be less supplies here? Even if our supplies are insufficient, there are many cooks and alchemists in the castle, and even if they rush to build it, they can still let us last a little longer." You have traveled thousands of miles to come from Meiguo, and how much have you consumed on the road? How much have you consumed in the past half a month? According to my estimate, did you never think that this battle would take so long before you came? In this case, I am afraid that your food will be very tight. ”

Joel had a look of loss on his face, as if he was feeling sorry for Hart, and said, "I was thinking, you can't take Ai Sakura Castle, I'm afraid you won't even have the food to roll home." ”

Hahaha!

After Joel finished speaking, an earth-shattering laugh erupted in the castle of Ai Sakura.

You......

Hart was speechless, Joel was right, and to the point, which was what worried Hart.

Since entering Ai Sakura Castle, Hart did not let the soldiers plunder frantically, but attacked the center of Ai Sakura Castle with great speed, until the two sides were stalemate in Ai Sakura Castle, Hart's military experience told him that this battle could not be fought in a short time.

So Hart ordered, and the crazy warriors began to plunder the city with impunity. But Hart is depressed, how is this love Sakura City not as rich as the legend?

Many shops, as if they had been plundered by others. Could it be that they had already moved beforehand? This is impossible, could they still have known before the prophet knew that we were going to attack the city?

In the entire Aiying City, only one-third of the shops and shops have goods, and they are all noble items and the like, and there are very few things such as food potions.

How could they have known that under the leadership of Sherma, an obscure civilian merchant, two-thirds of the merchants of Sakura City and their goods had already infiltrated the underground of Sakura City without knowing it.

And these aristocratic shops that have not been transferred sell too little grain. The nobles of Sakura City generally do not do this kind of low-profit business.

Hart felt inexplicable, could it be that the food in Ai Sakura City was bought from other places, so no one did the food business?

Hart felt that if it weren't for this war, he would really want to come to Sakura City to open a large rice shop.

Suddenly, Hart felt dizzy. He's afraid of failure, he's too afraid of failure!

He took a deep breath to make his voice more confident, "You mean you don't plan to surrender?" Hart stared at Joel coldly.

Hum!

Joel's face was hideous, and he glared at Hart fiercely, flicked his coat, and turned away.

Get out! Get out! Get out......

The next moment, Ai Sakura Castle erupted in an earth-shattering shout.

Damn it!

The commander of the three armies shouted angrily: "We fight!"

Hart hurriedly pressed his shoulder and said, "Don't be impulsive. ”

"My lord, the son of a bitch is right, we really don't have much food, and if we continue to consume it like this, we will starve to death." Instead of starving to death, it is better to fight them vigorously, and success or failure is here!"

Hearing this, Hart sank quietly, and after a long time, he said, "Let me think about it, let me think about it again." ”

Looking at the back of Lord Hart gradually moving away, the three army commanders shook their heads and sighed silently in their hearts.

Lord Hart is no longer the "god of war" he used to be, he has lost that kind of decisiveness and self-confidence, but has become hesitant.

The officer, who had been with Hart for several years, did not know anything at all, and Hart was not entirely thinking about the victory in this battle, but also about his own interests.

Although Hart is known as the "god of war" in Mei, it does not mean that his military status in Meiguo is unmatched. On the contrary, as a country of war, there is actually no shortage of generals like him, which can be described as fierce competition and difficult steps.

If this battle is lost, his status will naturally plummet. But even if you fight with them according to the advice of the three army commanders, these 10,000 people are Hart's family background, even if this battle is won, but his own people are almost dead, so in the days to come, why should Hart compete with other generals?

All sorts of ideas were swirling in Hart's mind, and he wouldn't make a quick move if he didn't come up with a clever plan. If nothing else, just because he is no longer the young man who only thought about fighting bravely in the war.

So far, the persistence of Sakura Castle has been smooth, and no one expected that it was Hart's inner world that caused this situation to a large extent.

"Miss, how is the city lord?"

Joel stood by the door and asked about the Ai Sakura in front of the bed.

Ai Yingsha glanced at the bed, turned her head, and said lightly: "It's okay, I haven't coughed these days, and I'm sleeping now." ”

Joel looked up, walked forward, and said, "I'll come and see him." ”

"Oh...... No. Ai Yingsha was a little flustered and said, "Father just fell asleep, so Uncle Joel shouldn't disturb him." ”

Joel paused, but still wanted to see what was going on, "I'll just look at him from the side." ”

"Didn't you hear the princess's order?"

Next to Ai Yingsha, the red-haired man held the hilt of the knife and stopped in front.

Menglameng stood behind Ai Yingsha and said lightly, "I'm afraid I can't disobey the princess's order as Lord Joel, right?"

Joel stopped, looked up at the dragon and the nightmare, his face gloomy.

He didn't say anything to the dragon and the others, just cast a vicious look.

"Okay, then I won't disturb the city lord's rest. ”

After turning around and walking a few steps, Joel stopped again and said lightly: "Actually, I came to the city lord to say that it is not easy for us to hold on until now, and the food of the Mei army will soon run out, and at that time, they will jump over the wall in a hurry, and it is very likely that thousands of people will attack." In this case, I am afraid we will not be able to hold it. ”

Ai Yingsha said: "What do you want to say, I will convey it to my father." ”

"I want to say, it's been half a month, where is Lord Yan, the commander of the Second Army of our Ai Sakura Guards? Hmph! I think he has already run away in style!"

"No, he'll bring troops to save us. Ai Yingsha said.

Although Joel turned his back to Ai Yingsha and the others, they seemed to see the sneer on Joel's face.

"Miss, you are so naΓ―ve, do you really think he has any soldiers? He is not even a nobleman, let alone a fief or army. I've checked his information, and he doesn't have any guilds or thieves himself, not even an adventurer, where did he come from?"

"You fart! What do you know! I'm going to be here.

The dragon shouted.

"Ridiculous, Boss. Joel shook his head and said, "You treat him as the boss, does he treat you as a brother?" He left you here as a hostage, but he left with his beloved beauty, I'm afraid that now, he and his beauty are happily playing in the mountains and rivers!"

"Miss, you're too easy to trust others!"

Ai Yingsha looked stunned, thinking of Zhao Yan and Emaya, she didn't feel good in her heart, and she didn't even open her mouth to refute Joel.

"That's how the world is. Joel said with added vinegar.

Meng Lameng knew that Ai Yingsha was uncomfortable, so he hurriedly leaned over, hugged Ai Yingsha's arms from behind, and said, "Princess, don't listen to him, we have to believe Yan, Yan is not that kind of person." ”

"That's it!" the dragon glared at Joel viciously, and said, "The boss is a man who stands up to the sky, not what he said." ”

Hum!

Joel snorted coldly and walked towards the door.

While disappearing from everyone's sight, he didn't forget to lose a sentence: "Then you just wait, I don't believe he dares to come." ”

Joel's words seem to have a deeper meaning.

After Joel left, the whole room fell silent, and after a long time, the voice of Ai Yingteng came from the bed, "Xiao Sha ......"

Hearing this, Ai Yingsha and the others hurriedly looked at the bed, and when they saw their father looking at them, Ai Yingsha hurriedly pounced.

It's been half a month, and Ai Yingteng has become even thinner, compared with him half a month ago, he is completely like two people. The bones on his face are distinct, and the hand that grabbed Ai Yingsha is similar to skin and bones.

Although I am with my father every day, I am not very surprised by his changes, but every time I see my father, a heart-wrenching pain rises in Ai Sakura's body.

"Father's ......"

Ai Yingteng's voice is no longer as majestic as before, but very low, a kind of powerless hoarseness, "Xiaosha, if you really like Yan, you have to believe him." ”

Ai Yingsha nodded, she didn't believe Yan, but Joel's words were on her heart, how could she feel good in her heart. Other women may not think so, but as a princess, she never thought that she would share a man with other women.

Thinking of Emaya and Radano beside Zhao Yan, her heart was not a taste. How could she know that in addition to these two women, Zhao Yan had other people by his side.

"Father, are you better?" asked Sakura anxiously.

Ai Yingteng grabbed Ai Yingsha's hand tightly, glanced at the dragon and Menglameng, and said lightly: "Father doesn't want to hide it from you, and I can't hide it from you, but you remember, you must not let Joel know my physical condition." ”

Ai Yingsha's eyes were filled with tears again, and she said lightly: "Father, I understand. ”

"Once he knew I was dying, I couldn't imagine what he would do. As long as I hold on, he won't dare to act rashly. ”

Ai Yingsha pushed her father's arm and said, "Father, you won't die, you won't." ”

"Yes, city lord, when the war is over and Joel is gone, the princess will invite the best priest to save you, and you will be fine." And Yan's eldest brother is the best pastor in Manchester City, Phomindos, and after he knows your situation, he will not die without help. ”

Call......

Ai Yingteng let out a long breath and said lightly: "There is no way, this chronic poison has corroded every cell in my body, and now that I stop taking him, it will be even more uncomfortable." ”

"Father, instead of that, I'll go find Uncle Joel and ask for some!"

"No, I can't be threatened by him anymore, I'm going to die anyway, and my father is going to die. ”

Father......

Ai Yingsha's face was full of tears, and she fell into Ai Yingteng's arms.

If Zhao Yan was here, he would definitely say that drugs are really harmful.
