The messenger looked in the direction of the Luxia County Government Office with slightly red eyes.

He scolded the refugees and thieves as beasts.

Although the world is in chaos, tragedies like this are not surprising, but seeing the messenger like this, many people were touched by the secret pain in their hearts, and felt sympathy for a while. They could only turn their sympathy into combat power, and go back to kill a few more thieves.

Only Shen Tang sighed quietly and stopped talking.

I don't seem to agree very much.

Chu Yao noticed his lord's mood, took a few steps forward on his horse, got closer to Shen Tang, and said calmly: "The clouds and mist will rise in an instant; the rainstorm will last only for a day. Thieves and bandits who commit too many unjust actions will be killed. Our army will surely win a great victory!"

Shen Tang's distracted attention was brought back by him.

He was stunned for a moment and said: "I'm not worried about losing this battle."

Shen Tang never thought that he would lose.

In addition to the thousands of second-class corps that the messenger mentioned, there are also a few high-level brave warriors. Most of the enemy troops are ordinary people who are hungry and emaciated, tenant farmers who have lost their land, and most of them have families to support.

It’s hard to say how much combat effectiveness it can really exert.

Chu Yao asked: "What is this, my lord?"

"The setting sun melts gold, and the dusk clouds merge together. I am admiring the sunset, but at the same time I feel deeply regretful." The sun sets to the west, and when you look up, you can see the gold-plated clouds. It is so beautiful that it is breathtaking. When you look down, you are brought back to reality by the devastated ruins. "It is really a pity." .”

Chu Yao looked at his lord with complicated eyes.

It's full of complaints about "it's so perfunctory to lie".

Shen Tang smiled awkwardly and lowered his voice.

"It's not that I don't want to tell Wuhui, I just feel that the situation is not right and it wouldn't be good if others heard about it."

Especially not to be heard by the messenger.

Their home has just been destroyed by refugees and bandits.

"This is easy to handle."

Chu Yao raised his hand and said "Dharma is not transmitted to the six ears", and the invisible literary energy surged up and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Shen Tang: ""

I almost forgot that Yanling can be used in this way.

Shen Tang can speak freely without any worries.

She hesitated for a while, and her usually energetic voice suddenly became confused: "I just think that compared to the hatefulness of the homeless grassroots, shouldn't the most hateful people be the powerful people represented by Zheng Qiao? If they can make a living by farming peacefully, Who is willing to tighten his belt and use a hoe and pole to fight against a good soldier? Being driven around like a bereaved dog, running here and there?"

land annexation is intense;

Landlords exploited cruelly;

The official corvee service is heavy;

Political corruption is rife.

Zheng Qiao allowed his evil dogs to be extravagant and wasteful. He built large-scale construction projects, indulged in licentiousness, and exploited the people. However, the people under his rule lived a miserable life of hunger and cold. They ate jujubes, bark, Guanyin soil, and were forced to starve to death.

If you don't want to die, you can only resist.

Survival is the innate instinct of every human being.

Who can say that their rebellion is treason?

These conclusions are all made from the perspective of the powerful landlords. Because what is harmed is their interests and what is shaken is their status. If the common people rise up, they will not be able to sleep peacefully and enjoy themselves without any worries.

Are the culprits responsible for the devastated situation in Luxia County really just the homeless grass bandits? Or are they the commander-in-chief who gathered them to plunder and kill? Or are they the powerful people who forced them to lose their land, unable to survive, and had no choice but to rebel?

Chu Yao asked: "Master, do you sympathize with them?"

Shen Tang thought that he was now considered the leader of half an armed group, and grinned inwardly, smiling bitterly: "Yes."

Chu Yao is extremely rational, without even a trace of emotion.

"But in Yao's opinion, the moment the common people take up arms and start killing innocent people indiscriminately, they are no longer innocent. The most deserving of sympathy now are the innocent people who are threatened by their butcher knives. Yao knows that my lord has a good heart, but your sympathy needs to be Leave it until they are defeated and captured, and can no longer pose a threat to you, then sympathy will be meaningful. Before that, there is only one identity——"

"enemy!"

As long as you are an enemy, no matter whether they are well-equipped soldiers and generals or a ragtag group with poor equipment and lack of food and grass, you must not be soft-hearted. This has nothing to do with justice and evil, and has nothing to do with ethics. The battlefield is only about victory or defeat.

Shen Tang naturally understands this truth.

Kindness cannot be without edge.

And her edge is not sharp enough.

Chu Yao asked again: "Master, do you want to save them?"

Shen Tang said honestly: "I want to, but I am powerless."

There was a touch of gentleness on the corner of Chu Yao's lips. He did not chuckle, but said softly: "My lord, it is enough if you have this kind of heart."

This is also the biggest difference between the lord and others - with this kind of heart now, and with more efforts in the future, the common people may truly be able to live a stable and happy life. Maybe those days will not be so rich, at least they will be better than now. Be good.

so--

"Repelling the homeless bandits does not require any forbearance. Even if their weapons are just poles and hoes, even if their rebellion is a forced choice. The only thing the Lord can do is to survive, go higher, and do justice to the world."

Chu Yao's voice became softer but more sonorous and powerful.

"Never make the same mistake again!"

These six simple words are more important than mountains.

Because Chu Yao knew in his heart that this was impossible. The general trend of the world has always been that if it stays together for a long time, it must divide, and if it stays divided for a long time, it must unite.

He doesn't expect to live long enough to "break apart", but he only hopes to see "long apart must reunite" in his lifetime. One glance is enough.

At this time, Shaochong came over carrying a gray eagle with an arrow.

This eagle is huge and has powerful wings.

In Shaochong's hands, it was extremely docile.

Chu Yao waved his hand to remove Yan Ling.

Shen Tang quickly regained his composure: "Who is this eagle?"

Shaochong held the winning wings with one hand and showed off to Shen Tang proudly, saying: "This thing has been flying overhead just now, and I knocked it down easily. Does Shen Jun want to eat it? If so, I will have it roasted. , I’ll give you half of it!”

In the past, the prey he hunted would either be eaten by himself or shared with several other sworn brothers. Shen Jun was the first outsider to receive such treatment. Shao Chong weighed it up, it was very heavy in his hand, and he could still fill half of it. Already.

"Always flying overhead?"

Chu Yao is very sensitive to this word.

He asked Kang Shi, who was a few steps away.

"Did Ji Shou see it?"

Kang Shi, who was named, shook his head.

Chu Yao asked Shao Chong how he discovered it.

Shaochong was at a loss and confused.

How was it discovered?

Of course you can find it with your eyes.

Shen Tang asked: "Is there something wrong with this eagle?"

Chu Yao: "Worry is a scout."

"Oh, scout?" When Shen Tang realized what he had said, he said in surprise, "Ah? Scout?"

An eagle?

As far as she knows, scouts are a special force, and they are scouts. Get as close as possible to the enemy before the war begins, understand the enemy's true strength, deployment, and types of troops, inquire about unfamiliar terrain, and find out where there are clean water sources.

These details can even determine the outcome of a war, but scouts are all humans, and this is an eagle.

On second thought, it seems not surprising.

Wen Xin Wu Dan has so many words and talents, and they are often used in all aspects of the battlefield, so it is normal to create a Scout Eagle.

only--

Shen Tang ruffled the eagle's feathers: "In this case, won't all our troops be controlled by the enemy?"

Gu Qi

Chu Yao said: "It doesn't matter."

They were originally rescuers.

The army did not carry much food.

The sooner you engage the enemy, the better.

This eagle should be the valor totem of a certain scout - some valor warriors have limited talents and extremely slow progress in strength, but that doesn't mean there is no way out. The valor totems of some of them can be used for battlefield intelligence reconnaissance.

The so-called valor totems are the shadows of various beasts that appeared on the battlefields of Gongxi Chou during battles between generals.
