Chapter 572 Siege (5)

Suddenly, Ye Rui was waiting for the Eighth Prince to say something, but when she heard a clang, Wei Daxun pulled out his waist knife and put it on his neck.

"Wei Daxun, what are you doing?" Ye Rui screamed.

But Wei Daxun cried and said: "The last general has a great trust from the Eighth Prince, and the last general deserves death! The only way to apologize is with death!" He actually wiped his neck.

No!Ye Rui was stunned, "No! Isn't it just food and grass?"

As she said that, she said anxiously to the Eighth Prince: "My lord, the food and grass have been lost. Do you really want to let a life die innocently because of these dead things?"

The Eighth Prince didn't speak, but just looked at Wei Daxun coldly, everyone held their breath.In fact, the grain and grass were attacked, and as the guard guarding the grain and grass, Wei Daxun was duty-bound. Even if he didn't commit suicide, he would have to be dealt with by military law, so the eighth prince didn't say anything, and no one dared to rescue him, because if he saved it, it would be in vain.

But at the next moment, with a flash of silver light, the Eighth Prince directly hit the waist knife in Wei Daxun's hand to the ground, Ye Rui's heart suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, it seemed that the Eighth Prince had let him go.

Ye Rui turned her head back with a smile, and was just about to comfort the Eighth Prince, but saw him walk away without saying a word, with a condensed expression on her face.

Ye Rui looked at the back of him leaving, she was so embarrassed, she didn't want to sigh, "He has high hopes for this battle, he originally wanted to use this battle to solve the perennial war at the border and give everyone a peaceful home. Maybe he thought too simply, don't blame him!"

Everyone heard what she said, but they were all a little moved and surprised. What was moved was that the Eighth Prince had been silent all along. It turned out that he was planning for everyone. This is a good prince who truly cares about the people.

Surprised, why did the Eighth Princess apologize to them?Is it because they did not do well enough, the Eighth Prince should be thankful for not blaming them, the Eighth Princess is too close to the people!

Of course, in ancient times, the prince was also life and death, and he is still the supreme leader of the army. There is no reason for him to apologize to others. People can kill whoever they want. If you don’t kill you, it is a great kindness. , but our Ye Rui is a modern person, she is used to apologizing to everyone and satisfying everyone.

Ye Rui quietly walked into the tent, only to see the Eighth Prince standing in front of the sand table again, looking into the distance with a gloomy expression, yes, his eyes no longer fell on the sand table.

Just as Ye Rui wanted to get closer, she heard him whisper: "Let Li Zeyou in!"

When Ye Rui heard it, huh?What does this have to do with Li Zeyou?Although she wanted to think about it, she obediently called Li Zeyou in.

Li Zeyou went in with the same apprehension. As soon as he entered, he knelt down on the ground without saying a word, "The last general is guilty!"

Well, he pleaded guilty before he said anything, although he didn't know where he was wrong, but since the Eighth Prince called him in alone, he must be guilty.

Unexpectedly, the Eighth Prince just breathed a long sigh of relief, Youyou turned his head and asked softly: "Is there any chaos outside?"

"All the battalions have gone back. Only a few leaders know about the burning of food and grass. The soldiers only know about the fire, but they don't know where the fire is. Everyone has agreed to block the news!" Li Zeyou hurriedly reported reports.

The Eighth Prince sighed again, and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to cover it up for a few days!"

Li Zeyou didn't answer, but he knew in his heart that he couldn't cover it up for not a few days, but even a day. Without food and grass, everyone would know soon.

"Is someone raiding the camp?" Suddenly, the Eighth Prince changed the subject again.

Li Zeyou looked at the eighth prince and the eighth concubine in embarrassment, and after a long time, he dared to speak: "The last general is incompetent, and he has not found the enemy!"

"Why didn't you find out? Didn't I tell you to place snipers in every outpost? They didn't find out either?" Ye Rui couldn't believe it.

Li Zeyou looked up at the Eighth Prince, and tentatively said, "Maybe they came in from a dead corner of the barracks, maybe..."

Maybe he didn't say it outright, and the Eighth Prince didn't ask, the two just looked at each other like that, but Ye Rui was even more puzzled, maybe what?Maybe they fell from the sky?It seems that there are no paratroopers in this era!
