Some people are born with obtuse angles

Chapter 403 Doubt

"General, you can't give it to them."

Although the earthy residents on the opposite side expressed sympathy, Eric still warned: "The condition of our troops is already very bad, and we have to go to rescue Kanya City. We can't live without these grains."

"Yes, General, this is something we bought with our lives! We can't give it to them."

"We need to replenish our physical strength in order to kill the enemy better!"

The soldiers reached an agreement, full of fireworks of revenge.

Li Tianxiu took a deep breath, lowered his head and asked, "How long can the counted food last?"

"The cost of so many people can only last for four days."

Eric replied in a low voice, and added: "There are still thousands of townspeople here, and the Lothraki people keep them from killing them, just to drag down our combat power on purpose.

Giving them food can't solve the problem, don't be fooled! "

Seeing this, the townspeople shouted one after another, trying to break through the guards' block.

"General, you can't just ignore death!"

"Without these grains, we can't live for three days!"

"Look at my baby, look at my baby..."

"Um……"

Although the two sides are strangers, Li Tianxiu can't help but feel embarrassed about this question.

Rationally speaking, in this emergency situation, the best choice is to preserve the combat power of the troops.

But if these civilians were allowed to fend for themselves, his conscience would not be at ease.

"It would be great if Zhao Miaomiao was here..." Li Tianxiu couldn't bear to sigh.

Zhao Miaomiao's alchemy can give birth to plants. Although it can't be done once and for all, it can solve many problems.

But there was no way, Li Tianxiu took out the map and looked at it for a while, thought for a while, and issued an order: "Give out half of the share to the townspeople, the space on the truck is just enough for people to sit.

Let's change the route, and we should be able to find other supplies along the way. "

"General..."

"This is an order!"

One sentence suppressed the objections of the soldiers, and they reluctantly unloaded half of the food from the cart and piled it in front of the mayor.

"Eric, you bring them here to maintain order, don't send out looting.

The rest, follow me back to put out the fire. "

Looking at the blaze that has not been extinguished, Li Tianxiu is about to take people away.

And just as he passed by the village head, a curse suddenly came from the crowd.

"It's clearly ours, so why take half of it away!"

"What's the difference between you and the Lothraki?"

"hypocrite!"

"robber!"

If there is one, there are two, more and more townspeople followed suit and cursed out, their eyes full of viciousness.

"What did you say!"

"Want to eat whip?"

The soldiers were furious, and subconsciously pulled out their long whips to drive away the prisoners of war.

"Soldiers and townspeople are dissatisfied with how you handled it, and your reputation is reduced by 5."

Seeing the reminder of the space, Li Tianxiu narrowed his eyes, raised his hand gently, and said, "Stop it all."

Human nature is not as optimistic as he imagined. These townspeople will not understand his situation, and they are unwilling to care about the future of the empire.

From the soldier's point of view, such ungrateful people must be severely punished.

Therefore, his so-called "rational" food distribution plan is not to please both sides.

"For the sake of losing your homeland, I forgive you for this offense.

But since you are so energetic, follow me to put out the fire, otherwise don't even think about receiving a grain! "

After finishing speaking, Li Tianxiu gave Eric a wink, and led the soldiers towards the town.

……

"Soaking rain."

Maeve raised her staff high, and icy rain suddenly fell from the sky.

It's just that most of the city is on fire, and the rainwater condensed by magic can't cover all the places, which is just a drop in the bucket.

It wasn't until the return of Li Tianxiu and others that the situation improved.

"ol!"

Violent water cannons sprayed into the flames, suppressing part of the external fire.

Although there is no sewer in this world, it also has specific water storage and special fire extinguishing props.

The soldiers pushed the water truck pulled from the warehouse at the town head, and put out the fire with high-pressure water hoses.

The firefighting operation lasted for a full five hours. Even though the soldiers had extremely high physical fitness, they were also panting from exhaustion.

However, due to the timely rescue, they snatched a lot of unburned food from the wreckage of the house, and they can decide to keep some.

"Lance!"

Maeve trotted over and threw herself into Li Tianxiu's arms.

Even knowing that the average person in this world is capable of carrying a car, Li Tianxiu still didn't dare to hide from such a pregnant woman running.

Until Maeve kissed her passionately.

"and many more."

Li Tianxiu ducked his head sideways, feeling a little headache.

This is where the soul wear is not good. If the original identity is particularly sensitive, or is imprisoned, it is very likely that the chastity will not be guaranteed.

"What's wrong?"

Maeve laid her hands on Li Tianxiu's chest, raised her head strangely, and narrowed her sapphire-like eyes.

"I'll explain to you tonight, you should rest first."

Li Tianxiu grabbed her shoulders to support her, and turned back to his army.

Maeve followed behind him without saying a word, tightly clenched the staff in her hand.

Li Tianxiu saw it and didn't say anything.

Although it's not impossible to act on the spot, it's impossible for him to follow Lance's original personality form, and sooner or later he will be discovered by the person next to him.

Rather than being discovered by her, it is better to take the initiative to solve this problem.

"Have you counted the number of people?"

After seeing Eric who had returned to the team, Li Tianxiu asked about the liquidation.

"Well, 16 of our side died in this battle, 12 were seriously injured to the point of being unable to march, 18 were slightly injured, 14 were captured, and 48 sets of weapons were seized..." Eric Hui reported.

"Does that mean there are 28 staff reductions..." Li Tianxiu sighed softly.

Where there is a battle, there will be casualties. Don't look at him suppressing four female sorceresses alone, but he is leading a group of tired soldiers.

The Lothrakis are well-equipped, and the vehicles are equipped with high-damage explosive crossbows. If the sorceress's battle is slower, at least [-]% of the troops will be lost in this encounter.

However, this is the case, and now he has only 208 troops under his command.

If another 67 soldiers leave the team, his main task will be ruined, and he will face the embarrassing situation of entering the countdown to repatriation.

"What's the reaction from the townspeople?" Li Tianxiu asked again.

"They... are the same as before, cursing and cursing after receiving the food. They don't know what will happen to them if they lose this war!" Eric said angrily.

"Don't demand too much from people who have problems with food and lodging." Li Tianxiu explained.

It stands to reason that when the invaders burn down their homes, the victims are usually eager to join the army and take revenge.

Seeing the arrival of the ruler's army, who had just won a battle, instead of being grateful, they cursed, either because the ruler was unpopular, or because of his nature.

In either case, trying to get them to change their minds is a big undertaking.

Therefore, Li Tianxiu didn't intend to be a good gentleman, and ordered that the rescued food be loaded into two trucks first, and the rest would be returned to the townspeople.

As for the consequences of letting the townspeople curse, let the king himself worry about it.

"General! There is a wounded man who wants to see you, and he is said to be the Demolition Captain of the Wolf Fort Guards."

After issuing the order, a soldier stepped forward to report the situation to Li Tianxiu.

Under the leadership of the soldiers, he came to the temporary medical tent and saw a man lying on a white cloth.

His face was burnt beyond recognition, his bare upper body was covered with blisters, and his whole body exuded the smell of burnt meat.

Normally speaking, with such a serious injury, he would have died in the fire, but this guy was so desperate that he woke up without receiving treatment.

"Princess...General..."

Opening his eyes to see the person coming, the scorched man turned his head with difficulty and made a hoarse voice.

"You don't have to get up, soldier, do you have anything to report?" Li Tianxiu frowned.

"Wolf Fort was... plotted by the Warlock, and it has fallen... We were scattered when we followed Duke Barov... to break through, and now they... are being pursued by Mitchlav's reinforcements... I hope we can With the support of the general..." the soldier begged with a painful expression.

"How many people are there in the duke? How many enemies are there?" Li Tianxiu frowned.

Their squad is now scattered, and the duke mentioned in the quest may be one of them.

Even if it wasn't, gathering up the road along the way could also replenish troops, so he was quite relaxed about this task.

"When we left the castle, there were about 3000 people...the other party's number is at least three times...more than us, so how many people are there now...I don't know...ha...ha..."

As the soldier spoke, he suddenly gasped for breath.

"Save him."

Li Tianxiu winked, and a military doctor immediately went up to check his condition.

"The soldiers of Wolf's Castle are all elites. If we save them, our combat effectiveness will be greatly enhanced." Maeve, who had been watching coldly, suddenly said.

"Oh?"

Li Tianxiu looked back at her, who was sitting on a big fur chair, looking at him sharply.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Li Tianxiu smiled, causing Maeve's expression to change slightly.

He rejected her kiss, and now calls her His Royal Highness in a strange way.

There is definitely something wrong with this abnormality!
"Then let me tell you something."

Li Tianxiu walked out of the tent with his hands behind his back, and said to her through spiritual voice transmission: "Lance is not dead, you can rest assured."

"Lance!"

Maeve's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly stood up from her chair!
