Chapter 457 Conversation
"The deputy general of your army, Marcus, seems to be very suspicious of this."

"If possible, please arrest him and torture him. Maybe there will be unexpected gains."

Chen Fan said it very seriously, which made Sharon couldn't help but be stunned. He looked into Chen Fan's eyes, and the two of them looked at each other.

It was only when he saw a hint of smile at the corner of his mouth that he realized that the young man in front of him was joking with himself.

"Hahaha, you are much more interesting than I thought."

Sharon laughed.

Seeing the other party laughing, Chen Fan wanted to touch his forehead. This general of the Iron Kingdom really had a low point of laughter.

Conversation requires skills. Starting the topic with a simple joke will always have more opportunities to turn things around than in a serious conversation.

"You haven't answered me yet. Why did you suddenly decide to come to the city to see me?"

Sharon seemed a little curious about this question and continued to ask.

"Because it was an invitation from Cook Seton Sharon."

This answer was somewhat beyond Sharon's expectations. He was stunned for a moment and then laughed again.

This statement contains several meanings.

Because it was Sharon's invitation, Chen Fan chose to trust him because of his reputation. This was trusting him personally.

And precisely because the invitation was in the name of Sharon, Chen Fan believed that this was not a pretense trick to trick him into entering the city.

reputation!

Some people regard these as more important than life.

People like Casey and Marcus would not joke about respecting the leader's reputation.

Of course, the reason why Chen Fan dared to come in now was because of the food in his hand.

He had made arrangements in advance. If the other party was so shameless and detained him, he would directly cut off the food supply.

Even if a fire burns all the food, don't leave it to the soldiers of the advancing legion.

Food and Chen Fan are tied together. If you dare to do anything to Chen Fan, you will be completely deprived of food.

Of course, this is also a last resort.

This is the advantage of building a temporary camp independently. You always have leverage against the other party.

"How about it? It's spectacular here."

"Every time I stand here, the sound of war horns sounds in my ears, and my eyes seem to be filled with overwhelming orcs attacking."

"So I often stand here, looking ahead, and I keep telling myself not to relax at all."

Sharon has a kind of power that is very contagious. His words are sincere and make people unconsciously believe what the other person says.

But for Chen Fan, who is more rational than emotional, these words seem to have no effect.

Chen Fan's attention was quickly focused on the doors on both sides.

Originally, the two gates were split into two halves from a huge tree that had grown for more than 10,000 years, and then the entire gate was wrapped with steel.

It can be called indestructible!

It's just that now many ordinary big trees are used instead, and the effect is not only reduced a little.

Walking to the railing and standing next to Sharon, Chen Fan lightly knocked on the railing.

"Deep Valley City is no longer a strong city. With the current morale and strength, it will be difficult to defend the next attack."

"I wonder, legion commander, do you have any other plans?"

Asking Sharon about his next arrangements was the purpose of Chen Fan's visit this time.

The logistics team in his hands was too small in number, and it was the advancing legion in Deep Valley City that really guided the battle.

The opponent's general's decision will affect Chen Fan's next arrangements.

If this is a coward, then Chen Fan is already ready to retreat. If the other party is still willing to continue fighting, then he will naturally need to make other plans.

If this question were asked outside the city.

Sharon wouldn't answer. He couldn't trust a grain officer who didn't even dare to enter his own city.

But now that Chen Fan appears here, Sharon will answer this question.

This was the answer he earned with courage.

After a moment of silence, Sharon gave the answer.

"I also know that it is difficult to defend, but I will still defend."

"Even if I defeat the entire advancing army, I will not take a step back."

When the other party said this, Chen Fan kept looking into his eyes, very firmly.

Chen Fan rarely trusts a person, but the intuition in his heart tells him that Sharon is not lying.

This person will really stick to it until the end.

"I will do my best to help you defend this city."

The other party gave a sincere answer, and Chen Fan also gave his promise.

As Sharon, he could have avoided abandoning himself, but he didn't.

How many people would value the promise of a mere food official?
Sharon also smiled and patted Chen Fan's shoulder gently.

The other party didn't seem to have any hope for him, but Chen Fan didn't explain.

No matter how much you talk, it's not as good as actually making some achievements.

"If you really want to help me, then help me get a few more sentry posts like yours."

"And let my soldiers eat well so that they don't continue to be hungry."

In Sharon's eyes, this is all Chen Fan can do for himself.

"Your requests will be met."

Chen Fan didn't say anything more, he just took out a pair of binoculars from his arms and handed them to the other party.

"It's a little gift."

After sending the telescope out, Chen Fan turned around and left.

The purpose of his visit this time was to find out what the top commander of the advancing army was thinking.

You must first confirm the other party's arrangements before you can continue to plan the following arrangements.

Chen Fan left quickly, and shortly after he left, Casey and Marcus walked out from another staircase nearby.

"Who is this kid? He came to question the leader's determination."

Marcus muttered, still looking unconvinced.

Casey next to him smiled and comforted his reckless colleague.

"In any case, it is a good thing for us to get the commitment from the Food Control Officer."

"Although this Chen Fan is a little arrogant, he is still much more capable than those previous grain officials."

"We are now able to ensure that the entire city's soldiers have three meals a day again, thanks to Chen Fan."

"After all, he is still our friendly force."

Casey's words made Marcus speechless. These words were somewhat meant to remind him.

Regardless of any conflicts between them, the other party still completed what he should do as a food officer.

It would be unjustifiable if our own people continue to hate each other.

Marcus was said to be a little embarrassed, so he couldn't help walking forward and his eyes fell on the metal rod.

"Humph, the young master is the young master, even the things he sent are so useless."

"Can this little broken stick crack an orc's head open?"
