I slept a little long this time, and when I came out to wash, I smelled the smell of lunch. This is the first lazy sleep that Hong Tao slept on this trip, and it was extremely comfortable. On weekdays, the sunrise and sunset camp, the morning to bed and early to get up do not seem to be very suitable for a night owl in later generations.

For lunch, the camel caravan brought its own food, because the shepherds also had two meals, and there was no habit of lunch. However, Hong Tao used a few pieces of caramel and his own scorpion crossbow to successfully deceive a few shepherd children, and also served them a lunch box of rice, and chatted with them through the camel caravan while eating.

The main thing is that he is saying, it is difficult for children to hear it, they are about to bury their heads in the lunch box, ordinary salted meat steamed rice, eating the feeling of a state banquet.

The leading party arrived just after lunch, and it seemed that he was not far from here, and it was more than half a day's journey back and forth, which also made Hong Tao raise his vigilance a few points. If it weren't the leading party who came, but a small group of Western Xia special forces, then the surrounding walled forts and shepherd tribes would be unlucky.

As for why the Xixia people didn't do this, Hong Tao couldn't inquire, and everyone said that it was unlikely, and even special forces seniors like Jiang Erlang shook their heads vigorously. He believed that harassment tactics were only possible near the battlefield, and that a lone soldier going deep into the rear of the enemy country was purely sending him to death, and no one was willing to do it.

Moreover, he was ashamed to talk about moral issues, saying that killing innocent people at will will be punished by God. None of the people he killed before were innocent, what is innocent and what is not innocent, the definition of the standard makes Hong Tao a little confused.

According to Jiang Erlang's standards, those within a hundred miles of the battlefield are not innocent, because these shepherds are not pure shepherds, and they do not usually live nearby.

They came with the army, a bit like supernumerary logistics troops, and after the battle, they followed the army again. The shepherds who actually lived nearby were far away long before the war. Therefore, killing these people, Jiang Erlang thinks it is reasonable and will not be blamed by God.

"There are so many problems, you have to find a reason to kill someone, no wonder you can't win all the time. When it was cost-effective, the Xia people only attacked the walled city within a hundred miles, so what did the border army do? If the border is vacated a hundred miles to the south, no people will be inhabited, no city will be built, and there will be no need for defense. Even if the Xia people have passed a hundred miles, even if they are foul, God will come down and beat them up immediately, right? Hong Tao's nose was crooked after listening to Jiang Erlang's moral standards, and he still had the face to be called a veteran of a hundred battles.

“…… According to the meaning of 203, we can kill at will, will it be against the way of heaven? ”

Jiang Erlang and Shi Tong couldn't answer the question of the horses, indeed, every time the Xia people, including the Liao people, went south, they didn't ask if they couldn't kill people a hundred miles away, they grabbed wherever they wanted, killed them, and kidnapped them as slaves if they couldn't kill them.

"What do you mean by random killing, am I like that kind of person? We are killing the enemy, the Song and Xia countries are enemy countries, and all Xia people are enemies, from newborn children to hundred-year-old people, both men and women are enemies. There are only two ways for officials to deal with the enemy, either surrender or kill. In fact, it is not me who chooses life and death, nor God, but themselves. If you surrender, you don't have to die, and if you don't surrender, it means that they have chosen to die. Of course, people can kill us or turn us all into slaves, it's as simple as that. ”

Why the ancient civilization was always destroyed by the barbaric flood is now a little clear, in the current stage of the development of the productive forces, whoever is civilized will carry more moral baggage, think too much and naturally hesitate, the more neat the cross-country barbarism is, and occupy the advantage and initiative psychologically.

For example, the northern ethnic groups in China, when they encounter natural disasters and famines, they go south to hunt grass valleys, and they never feel that this is a sin, but they feel that it is a kind of Guan Rong, just like going out to hunt whoever has more prey is respected.

However, the farming people of the Central Plains are always passively beaten, and they only know how to resist when they are beaten. But it's just a resistance, as long as the other party doesn't fight anymore.

When did you hear that when the farming people were slack, the villages gathered some people and went to the northern grasslands to take the herdsmen as prey and play? If this habit had been in place, the nomads would have been wiped out long ago, and they would not have been able to afford to exchange ten lives for one.

Hong Tao doesn't think that he can wake up all the farming people to become bloodthirsty wolves, but the people around him must change. In the future, fighting a war will no longer be a passive defense and counterattack, there is a reason to attack, and there is no reason to find a reason to take the initiative to attack.

For example, if the weather is too hot, it can be a reason for the Northern Expedition. We're going to the north to cool off, but someone is holding us back, so why don't we wait.

This is to heat us to death, how bad intentions are, more vicious than poisonous snakes! It's not enough to kill, you have to raid your house and destroy your door, so that poisonous snakes can never breed.

"In that case, except for the Song people, wouldn't there be no one else's way to live?" Jiang Erlang seemed to understand a little, but he was not sure.

"Your family is rich in food, so you can ride a horse to the north and distribute it to the Tibetan people, and see if they will not rob your family or kill your family because of your food when they go south. We are Song people, why should we care about whether others are alive or not? If he could, he hoped that there would be no one to the north from here, and the Song people would go wherever they wanted. Of course, we are readers, and we can't be unreasonable. In this way, discuss with others first, let them also become Song people, so that no one will have to kill anyone. Or what the official said just now, whether life or death is not up to us, it's up to them. I don't want to be a Song person, but I also block the way and don't let us go to the cold, and I think it's easier to kill us, otherwise sooner or later they will come and kill us. There is time on the way, think about it, and go! Don't just think about it, pay attention to the Fan people who lead the way, and don't let him play us. ”

Theoretically, whether this thing is right or not, it must be neatly packaged and taken out in sets, and everything that is missing is waste. Whether you understand it or not, whether you can understand it or not, Hong Tao thinks that it is not the key, the key is that this set of things must be said often, and from time to time it must be supported by strong facts, and then everyone will naturally believe it.

As long as they believe it, they will automatically join the group that perfects this theory, and they will tirelessly pick up the gaps from generation to generation until it shines with the light of truth.

"Da Lang, what 203 said seems to make some sense, don't you have to fight when Xia people become Song people?" Jiang Erlang's wisdom comes entirely from perennial practice, and he is not an opponent when he simply plays theory, and he is not even as clear as Jiang Dalang.

"Scholars don't use knives to kill people, our adults are not only the same as the seven stars, but also the stars of the heavens. Look at it, it won't be long before the Xia people on the other side will be unlucky. ”

Jiang Dalang's combat effectiveness is not as good as his younger brother, but he has a lot of eyes, and he mostly understands the meaning of this passage. What this person and that person, what is blocking the way in the cold is nonsense, the central idea is just five words, if you don't obey, you will be killed!

However, he was stunned and did not feel disgusted, but felt that the blood that had not boiled for many years was surging a little. The last time he felt this way was more than 20 years ago, when he had just followed the team to the sidelines, and this was the feeling when he thought of killing the enemy for his country.

It's a pity that his blood is cold after two battles, and fighting is really not as interesting and meaningful as the vernacular and commentary, especially when he catches up with a rice bucket boss, and he loses if he can win.

It is still too early to make a conclusion whether this Wang Shuaisi is a rice bucket, but he is by no means the kind of sour rot who will only arrange troops according to the sentences in the military book.

Now there is an answer to who the flower paste is, whether he admits it or not, just against what he said just now, this kind of lack of virtue with smoke tricks can't run out of Wang Shuaisi's handwriting. Looking at what he did after he left Kaifeng City, even if he was not a person in the officialdom, he could feel a significant difference.

"The Xia people are unlucky, they deserve it, who made them unwilling to be Song people, what's wrong with Song people?" Jiang Erlang was already a little poisoned, and when he encountered a problem that he couldn't figure out, he naturally moved out the theory he had just heard. This can only say one thing, and he thinks it's right!

"It's hard to say, Lord Shuai Si has this heart, and the court may not let him get his wish. It's not like you two haven't suffered this loss, so let's take a look. ”

Not to mention that people are old and treacherous, Shi Tong basically didn't speak, but he already had an idea in his heart, and sometimes it is a kind of wisdom to live a long time and see a lot.
