Obviously, Xiao Han’s later remarks really had no market at this time, and even vulgar people like Liu Hongji sneered at them!
When you see the disparity in strength between the enemy and us, and it seems that we can't defeat you, do you really stop fighting? Surrender obediently?
How in the world can this make sense?!
If this were the case, then why would His Majesty raise an army or rebel today? The Sui Dynasty was so awesome, how many people did they have when they raised an army? It’s okay to just stay in your hometown in Jinyang all your life and never come out!
And Zhuge Liang, the Marquis of Wu in Nanyang City, don’t bother leaving Qishan. See how powerful Cao Cao is? How powerful is the Wei army? How can he fight for such a small land in Shu? Just disband on the spot and everyone goes back to their respective homes.
Forget it with your mother.
In the carriage, Xiao Han was rendered speechless by Liu Hongji for the rare moment. He could only lean in the corner and smoke hard, making the originally small carriage even more smoky. He could not even see the people inside clearly.
Only two points of uncertain red light could be seen flashing in the sky.
"Why don't we fight until the end to know who will win?! Remember this, Baldhead! Next time you drink, before you die of drunkenness, don't say anything about how you can't drink anymore!"
After taking a long puff of the cigarette and cursing angrily in his mind, Xiao Han, who was furious and angry, finally felt better.
After all, he is a small person in later generations, with a petty mentality that cannot be changed in his bones! No matter what he does, he likes to calculate the gains and losses first, but forgets that some gains and losses cannot be calculated before making a decision.
Furthermore, standing at the end of history and judging the predecessors is a rogue behavior.
Later generations only saw the demise of the Shu Kingdom, so they thought that Zhuge Liang's six trips out of Qishan was a waste of national money, and Liu Chan, who did not care about Shu, was a good emperor who truly cared about the people.
There are even radicals who feel that Zhuge Liang has an empty reputation and cannot decide in one battle. Instead, he wastes people and money due to successive conquests, and finally destroys the Shu Kingdom.
But they all understand such a simple truth, how could Zhuge Liang, who is almost as intelligent as a demon, not understand?
Just as it is said in "The Later Master":
"... Only by attacking the thieves will the minister be weak and the enemy be strong. However, if he does not attack the thieves, the royal family will also perish. If he just sits there and waits for death, who will attack him?"
Therefore, Zhuge Liang saw it very clearly from the beginning! If Shu did not attack Wei, then Wei would never allow Shu to exist peacefully. If the people of a small country live happily on the side of the powerful Wei, then it is called sitting and waiting for death.
!By then, Shu will also die, or it may die earlier!
Of course, Mr. Wuhou would never have thought of those self-righteous surrender factions in later generations!
Surrender? Doesn’t that mean that all the people under your rule are slaves to a subjugated country? And if you think about the feeling of being a slave to a subjugated country, how is it different from death?
"I would rather die standing than live on my knees! How many people today can still achieve the integrity passed down from our ancestors?"
I don't know if it was because he came to Wuhou's hometown, but Xiao Han's thoughts were obviously a lot more confused, and when his thoughts were confused, he smoked more and more frequently.
In the end, not only did the entire carriage become more smoky, but a lot of smoke came out from all the gaps in the carriage!
Although Liu Hongji, who was opposite him, was physically much stronger than Xiao Han, Liu had only just learned to smoke. His ability to breathe second-hand smoke was naturally not comparable to that of a long-time smoker like Xiao Han.
"Cough cough cough... Xiao Han! You are not afraid of choking to death!"
Staring, he forced himself to smoke out the cigarette in his hand. Liu Hongji couldn't bear it anymore. He rushed out of the car and lay on the frame, like a drowning dog, with his mouth open and breathing frantically.
The air is cool outside.
"Hey! What's going on!"
On the carriage, Liu Hongji made a lot of noise. Not only did the people who were amazed at the smoking carriage move backwards to avoid it, but the team entering the city immediately became commotion.
The few city gate officials not far ahead also noticed something strange at this time. They pressed the hilts of their swords one by one and rushed towards them.
"Stop anyone who comes!"
Just as several city gate soldiers were striding towards the carriage, a man riding a horse and wearing a bamboo hat suddenly stopped in front of these people. A pair of dark eyes looked at these people up and down.
Then he raised his hand to reveal the token in his palm and said in a cold voice: "We are officials from other places who went to Beijing to celebrate the New Year! Don't bother me!"
"Official?" The city gate guards who rushed forward in a hurry were stopped. They looked at each other, and then at the token in Ren Qing's hand.
They recognized the word "ling". The sign that the great-grandfather of the government office threw when he was making boards had the character "ling" written on it. But with just the word "ling", it would be a bit rash to say that they were also members of the government office.
"You said you are an official? What kind of yamen! Have you ever informed our masters?"
Several city gate guards hesitated. As low-ranking officials, they naturally did not recognize the token in Ren Qing's hand. However, looking at Ren Qing's style and the decoration of the carriage, they also knew that this was not an ordinary person, so they spoke
His tone also softened, at least he didn't seem to be arrogant and bossy like he was treating ordinary people.
"Six Military Departments!" Ren Qing was not in the mood to argue with a few pawns. He turned his palm, took away the token, and said coldly: "It will get dark soon, take us into the city! We will return tomorrow.
We must rush to Chang'an!"
"This..." Several city gate guards looked confused, but in the end, a fat middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said: "Please come into the city, sir!"
Outside the city, in the long queue, a group of people suddenly separated and surrounded a carriage. They slowly passed by the queue and walked towards the city gate. The other people who were lining up honestly looked envious.
And jealous.
People are like this, everyone hates privileges, but everyone likes to use them. In the final analysis, what they hate is not the so-called privileges, but the person who exercises the privileges, why can't it be themselves!
With the last rays of the setting sun, the carriage slowly sank into the city gate. Seeing this, the slightly fat city gate official carefully wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned around and asked his men to continue to strictly search the people entering and leaving the city.
"Brother Liang, you just let them in, what if they are fakes?" While he was busy, a skinny subordinate came over and asked the fat man curiously.
Hearing this, the fat man known as Brother Liang raised his head and looked in the direction of the city, and sneered: "They are going into the city, not out of the city! As long as they enter the city, are you afraid that they will run away? As for their identities
, this kind of thing is not for little people like you and me to worry about. I will send a message to Wu Cishi’s house in a while. Whether it is true or not, Wu Cishi will confirm it on my behalf!"
