117: Market (Part 1) [Please give me a monthly ticket]
Shen Tang couldn't help muttering in a low voice.
"It's no wonder..."
Qi Shan's ears were sharp and he asked: "What is 'no wonder'?"
Zhai Le also heard the sound and looked over. Shen Tang said: "You said that a fifth-level doctor can start preparing to form his own private army. It's no wonder that more than a hundred countries will be carved up, and the world will be in chaos. Only brave warriors Isn't it easy to get into trouble if you are ambitious?"
Zhai Le couldn't help but rectify the name of the courageous warrior.
"The current situation really has little to do with warriors."
Praying for kindness is something I can’t bear to look at.
He said with a smile: "How good are you at being a warrior? You can separate one country by just forming a private tribe? How can it be so easy! If this is true, there will be not just hundreds of countries in the world but thousands of countries, one town and one village. They can all serve the country. Besides, how can private tribes be so easy to cultivate? How many warriors can’t even support themselves..."
Shen Tang: "...so miserable?"
Qishan said: "Well, it's very miserable."
Shen Tang said: "I don't believe it."
"Since Mr. Shen Xiaolang doesn't believe it, I'll settle the score for you."
A courageous warrior who wants to separate one side from another?
Do you need to practice your private army?
The first threshold is the expense of practicing martial arts and tempering one's body. Not to mention big fish and meat, but meat and fish is indispensable. If it is more luxurious, it should be supplemented with medicinal materials to maximize the potential.
The second threshold is the expense of hundreds of people eating, drinking, and sleeping. Military training and martial arts are the most energy-consuming. There is no oil or water in the bowl. How can you build up strength without eating meat? How can you win a war if you don't have the strength?
Just eating can make people poor.
Think this is the end?
No, no, no, there are still more thresholds at the back.
The third threshold is that private troops must learn various military formations and be able to respond to changes according to the commander's orders. This cannot be practiced in a day or two, but requires years of hard training and grinding.
The fourth threshold, the support of words and spirits, is not only the brave and courageous words and spirits of the generals, but also the literary and spiritual words and spirits of the scribes.
Only by combining the two can we leverage our strengths and offset our weaknesses.
Now that everything is done, can we go to the battlefield?
No, no, no, there is the last one that is most important.
Shen Tang listened carefully and couldn't help but say: "And the most important thing? We have trained our troops, but this is not enough?"
"Nature is not enough."
"What's most important?"
"The Great Seal!"
The first few thresholds can be solved with money, but the last threshold can make people dumbfounded and cannot be solved no matter how much money is spent.
"The national seal...is it really that important?"
Shen Tang heard Qishan mention the national seal more than once, but she never had much interest in this object and never learned much about it. She took this opportunity to find out more about it.
Qi Shan did not deliberately hide his head and tail this time and avoid talking about it.
How important is the national seal to a power?
It is so important that if a general goes to the battlefield, either the general has a national seal or the lord he is loyal to has a national seal. Otherwise, going to the battlefield is equivalent to sending warmth to the enemy. It is not only about the "way of princes", but also about defending against foreign enemies and the destiny of the country. .
How to defend against foreign enemies?
Based on the national spirit and national destiny, the national border barrier is condensed.
The stronger the national destiny, the stronger the national border barrier.
If you can't defeat this, you still want to attack the city?
Take a shower and go to bed early.
How to control the national destiny?
This is not a very substantive expression, and it belongs to the category of mystery and mystery. For example, to reduce the frequency of various natural disasters in the territory... Of course, it is limited to natural conditions.
People can control natural disasters but not man-made disasters.
If Sun Tzu in the upper reaches deliberately cuts off the river before the rainy season, causing drought in the lower reaches, and releases water again when the rainy season comes, causing the lower reaches to be washed away by floods, no matter how strong the national destiny is, there will be no way to operate Nassau.
Generally speaking, with the National Seal, you will have the most basic and complete buff. Without the National Seal, you will not have this part of the buff, which is a big difference from others. If you go to the battlefield and fight with others, even if you are a twenty-level warrior. Hou will also be beaten to shit.
If you want to occupy the top of a mountain, put up a flag and become king?
dream!
After hearing the description, Shen Tang: "..."
There is only one thought left in my mind - Good guy, this is a "City Founding Order" or a "Gang Founding Order" thing???
The above fully illustrates the difficulty of warriors separatist rule.
Zhai Le also added: "The real strength of a brave warrior is on the battlefield, not fighting alone, but fighting alone. The essence is similar to that of a ranger. At most, he can fight a little better than ordinary rangers, and he can fight one against ten, and one against a hundred." , even one against a thousand..."
Sounds scary, right?
However, in more than two hundred years since the birth of the Thief Star, only three people of the 20th level of Chehou have emerged! There are only more than a thousand people with names of the 15th level or above. This number is comparable to the population of the mainland for more than two hundred years. Comparison is just a drop in the ocean, how can it influence the overall situation?
If Qi Shan wasn't by his side, he would even want to pass the blame——
In today's world, it is obvious that literary scholars have a greater responsibility.
Shen Tang sighed: "That's terrible."
It can be said that the low-level martial artist is a martial artist with some martial arts value at most. The strength of the mid-to-high-level martial artist is completely beyond the scope of ordinary people, and they are rushing to become a high martial artist.
It is really difficult for ordinary people to survive.
Probably because he was too engrossed in chatting, it wasn't until he was about to go down the mountain that Qishan noticed that there was a cry in his ear. His face darkened, and when he lowered his head, he saw that the naughty child was still holding the two black pigs in his hands——
He actually led the black pig all the way down the mountain!!!
He glanced at Shen Tang, smiling superficially but not smiling at all.
"Shen Xiaolangjun?"
Do you really want to lead a big black pig to recruit people?
Shen Tang shook his head like a rattle: "No! It's still more than one hundred and two hundred pounds of meat, and I will never abandon it!"
Qishan: "..."
He can't even control Shen Tang, how can he control Zhai Le?
Qi Shan had no choice but to swallow his anger in frustration and headed straight to a small town near Xiaocheng with his two naughty children and two black-faced men.
It is said to be a small town, but it is actually composed of about twenty scattered poor villages, with a total of no more than a thousand households.
Today happens to be the "big market" held once a month.
Although it is said to be a "big market", there are not many serious products sold.
The most common commodity is people.
On both sides of the simple dusty dirt road, under the low mud-walled houses, there are "commodities" of different ages standing, sitting or lying, with straw in their hair. Some of them were brought here by Yaxing, and some of them were sold by themselves. itself, and part of it is a "small family workshop".
In the so-called "small family workshops", either parents sell their children, husbands sell their wives and children, and children sell their fathers and mothers... All kinds of things in the world are vividly demonstrated in this small place. They sell their relatives. , they are not all crazy about money.
Shen Tang then saw a mother who was so thin that her cheeks were so thin and her eye sockets were seriously sunken. She was holding her son tightly and begging passers-by to buy him away. She would beat him or scold him as much as he wanted, just asking for food.
The child was dressed in ragged clothes and was obviously very thin from hunger. His chest and ribs were all visible, his arms and legs were so thin that the outline of his bones could be seen, but his belly was as big as that of a woman who was six or seven months pregnant.
She couldn't bear to look back: "Yuanliang...he is..."
Qishan said: "There is no hope of saving this person."
Zhai Le also couldn't bear it, and sighed: "It should be because of eating too much dirt, which accumulates in the intestines and stomach, which will be detrimental to the future, and it was forced..."
The three Shen and Tang people were dressed in a way that was incompatible with the local people. The fat and irritating black-faced man attracted so much attention that even passers-by couldn't help but give way to them.
