50 Menelaos, tired of war, regretted that he should not have thought about it
At night, the battlefield was silent, and it had become a grim graveyard, with the occasional sound of wild dogs and other carnivorous footsteps.
And those who were knocked down by the spear, because the spearhead was biased towards the heart, although the shot was fatal, but it was difficult to breathe for a while, and because of poverty, there was no family to follow, and no relatives and friends went out at the same time, or the friends had already died on the battlefield, and now he had become a lonely ghost before he died, and let out a faint lament in pain.
Also, on the edge of the battlefield, because the dead bodies are not concentrated, the wild dogs simply do not understand that as long as they go further inside, the corpses can feed it to death.
They learn to be like humans, no one wants to go one more step inside, as long as it is a dead body, the dog has a share. The first bite is not allowed to take a bite later, although the dog knows that he can't eat a corpse at all, but they become like people, as long as it is their own territory, they are not allowed to give an inch. (Corrupt officials and ruffians rely on eating their own territory.) )
The strong dog comes first, and that is to go with the flow. If the weak dog comes first, when the strong dog is one step late, the weak dog who goes in the next step will bite you to death. Between dogs and dogs, there can be strong and weak, but there is absolutely no difference between smart and stupid, and the weak will naturally run in with their pants up.
If there is another strong dog, then use the teeth as a spear to fight. Because the strong and the strong are all self-conscious, out of the delicate relationship of disparity, it is better to be a very obvious weak dog, who has already known his own weakness, and has already fled with his pants.
When arguing over things, it is better for the weak to meet the strong than for the weak to meet the weak, so that you can avoid fighting and admit defeat early. (This is the philosophy of life, and it is an absolute truth for both humans and animals.) )
The silent battlefield of death, because death has not yet broken its breath, and because of the sound of hungry dogs fighting for food, it is even more eerie and terrifying.
Menelaos lay on the ship, sometimes looking up at the stars, sometimes closing his eyes in mourning.
He wanted to stop fighting and go home, but he couldn't find a good step to borrow something good to save his face. knows that Helen's beauty is really worthless now, except for face.
The newlywed Yan'er of the year is now autumn wind and falling leaves. Women, no matter how beautiful and beautiful you are, you can't stop the progress of time, and youth turns into aging.
Menelaos also had a cousin whom his aunt and cousin had persuaded him before he went on the expedition.
"Menelaos, do you see if you can cross the sea to fight, disasters are inevitable from thousands of miles away." The aunt said to Menelaos.
"Cousin, if the light of your eyes can see my existence, I hope you don't do that stupid thing that is hard to collect, you can let her go as she pleases.
Even if she is the most loving couple, she has already made the bad deed of eloping with someone, this is her own destruction of her chastity, no matter how hard you repair it with all your heart, it will be difficult to return to the original, and she is not a little girl who is only three years old, under the pretext of being deceived by someone.
Although she is your bowl of food, but yes, when the tofu is about to be put into your mouth, unfortunately it is dropped on the ground, it is no longer your mouth food, if you pick it up from the ground and put it in your mouth, this is not only not full, but become a joke for everyone. My cousin's persuasion was bitter to the truth.
"The difficulty is to fight across the sea from afar, and it is difficult to know the outcome of the battle." Menelaos said.
"I heard that Prince Paris is also the king of a great country, and the king of all the countries with diplomatic relations, and the head of the Federation. We have united all the small nations, and all the tribal families, and we can only keep them even. It's not a good fight, my cousin. My cousin began to tear up a little as she spoke.
"Now that the warships have been prepared, all the countries with diplomatic relations have received letters of request for expeditions, and they are already training men and horses and preparing military rations." Menelaos said.
"Son," said my aunt, "you are now young and vigorous, and you rely on yourself as the prince of the country, and you will go on an expedition when you say it." It's like a winding arrow, once it's shot, there's no power to take it back.
You're not playing, my son. You are shooting a tiger, there is no certainty of victory, you must not let go of the shot easily, once you don't shoot eye penetration, it will make the tiger more fierce.
Things in the world have changed from small things to big things, and the more troubles they have, the bigger they will become. Rather than falling into the unpredictable outcome of the event, it is better to stop before the unexpected and not go up this one step, and it doesn't matter if you go down the next step. "My aunt's persuasion is more sophisticated.
"Why am I a man," said Menelaos, "and if it were for someone else, if I were a woman, I would persuade him in the same way: 'Why should a man be troubled without a wife?' 'Why should I be a prince, if I were a vagabond, even if my wife was snatched away, I could only watch. At least I wouldn't think of ordering the whole country to use coalition forces to fight across the sea.
Oh my God, it seems that it is a very good thing to be lucky enough to be a homeless person. If you fall to the bottom, you don't care about status and face. No face, no dignity, live freely, light as a swallow, fly at will. ”
"Cousin, drink this bowl of water first, don't worry about the expedition first, you will have a great fortune and freedom." My cousin said.
Menelaos said in his heart: "This is the so-called destiny! He leaned his tired body against the plank of the ship and stared up at the starry sky.
He fell asleep in a daze and woke up in a daze. He dreamed of his brother Agamenliu, and his brother was so old and skinny, just like his father back then.
However, perhaps it was the father who dreamed of him, saying, "My son, if the soul of the dead could crawl out of the grave, I would single-handedly shoot Helen back for you, my son."
It's a pity that I died many years ago, and my body has become a mess of mud, let alone resurrected from the dead, so I can only hand over the name of my previous life, along with the strong body of the past, to the underworld, and never return to the world. ”
"You go to bed early, grasp the armistice period to recover your body, when you fight again in the coming day, you will have a more robust body, and physical strength is the best weapon for a general in wartime." Menelaos was in a daze, feeling that this was not the words of his father, who had already died, but as if his brother had appeared in a dream.
