Chapter 459: Where Did You Find the Enemy?
Mu Chonglan was reprimanded by Xiao Xiantang, shrunk his neck at the moment, and muttered: "I just think about it, why are you so angry." ”
"I can't think about it!" Xiao Xiantang said unhappily.
Just kidding, Mu Chonglan's brain, how can there be any twists and turns, she can say such things as above, then it must be from her heart, so if you don't kill her thoughts in the cradle as soon as possible, maybe you wake up in the middle of the night and see her above herself.
was yelled at by Xiao Xiantang again, Mu Chonglan was a little aggrieved, she felt that Xiao Xiantang was really unreasonable many times, obviously it didn't matter if it was above and below, couldn't everyone take turns on it one by one?
Xiao Xiantang looked at Mu Chonglan's eyes, knew what she was thinking, stretched out his hand and pulled it on her ear, his mouth was also close to her ear, and said loudly: "If you dare to put the idea in your head into practice, I will pull out all the flowers and plants you planted, and Su Chengmo, I will let her leave, do you hear?!" ”
"Got it, got it! Don't yell at me so loudly, your ears hurt so much. Mu Chonglan covered her ears with a pitiful expression.
Xiao Xiantang rolled his eyes, although Mu Chonglan looked pitiful, but in fact, the poor person was actually him.
"My lord, my lord, something is wrong!" There was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, accompanied by the arrival of Zhao Yongkang.
Xiao Xiantang was still holding Mu Chonglan's waist with one hand and pulling her ears with the other, but when he heard Zhao Yongkang's voice, he immediately let go of her, and when he saw that as soon as she escaped from his restraints, he couldn't wait to run away, and he gritted his teeth angrily.
Obviously, Mu Chonglan liked him first, but in the end, he was always angry with him half to death, and he didn't know what evil he had done in his previous life, so he met this idiot to collect debts from him.
"What happened?" Xiao Xiantang was in a bad mood, and even his voice with Zhao Yongkang became not very pleasant.
Zhao Yongkang heard Xiao Xiantang's voice, looked at Xiao Xiantang's gloomy face, and wanted to cry without tears, he really didn't understand, why every time he came to find Xiao Xiantang, Xiao Xiantang was in a bad mood, so that everything he did seemed to be wrong.
It is said that when encountering such a time, the best choice is to say haha, say that there is nothing wrong with you, and then leave quickly.
It's just that this time the matter is not a trivial matter, so he has no way to leave immediately, so he can only say the purpose of his coming here. "Over there in the state capital, there is a move."
"What kind of action?" Xiao Xiantang asked.
"Naval warfare." Zhao Yongkang replied, after all, it is a relatively hidden matter, and it is more appropriate to shirk the infighting or fight with pirates, so those people in the state capital did not choose to use the tactics of 6 places, but chose naval warfare.
When Xiao Xiantang heard this, he sneered: "Oh, naval battle? Who gave them the courage to come to the naval battle? ”
Zhao Yongkang immediately said: "My lord, I'm afraid this time is a little different." ”
"Different? What's the difference? ”
"Those who came before were basically all fake pirates, and the fake pirates had limited combat experience, mainly some ruffians or officials pretending to be hooligans, but this time it was the navy, and the Ding Navy was the same, they were all battle-hardened navies, and they also had more supplies than ours, and the warships were well equipped enough, so ......" Zhao Yongkang said later, and he stopped talking a little.
When Xiao Xiantang heard this, he sneered and said, "Do you want to say that compared to the warships, we are not as good as those navies, and compared to the combat strength, we lose in numbers, or do you want to tell me that we are doomed?" ”
"My lord, I didn't mean that, I just felt the need to tell you about it, and you can't be overly arrogant and distort the facts because of the successive victories these days, right?" Zhao Yongkang said.
"Saying it so high-soundingly, it's actually covering up your gaffe just now, right? Zhao Yongkang, you actually don't have much confidence in this naval battle, because things are just like what you just said, this time it is not fake pirates, but a well-equipped navy, so you don't have much hope and think that we will win. Xiao Xiantang said lightly.
Zhao Yongkang immediately shook his head: "No, my lord, you misunderstood." ”
Xiao Xiantang: "Misunderstanding? ”
Zhao Yongkang nodded, and then after thinking about it, he said: "Actually, in some ways, those navies are also the troops sent by the imperial court to guard the sea line, and they are the people of our united front, even, so to speak, whether the generals above know or don't know, what they did, or what they didn't do, or what they decided to do, those soldiers below just obeyed orders, and didn't know that they were killing each other with us. Because they don't know what they're fighting for, that's what I'm really worried about. ”
After listening to Zhao Yongkang's explanation, Xiao Xiantang just looked at Zhao Yongkang, didn't say much, and after watching for a while, he directly let him out.
After Zhao Yongkang left, Xiao Xiantang looked at Mu Chonglan, who had been on the side, and asked, "Do you want to go out to the naval battle with me?" ”
"Naval battles?" Mu Chonglan looked at Xiao Xiantang.
Xiao Xiantang nodded: "Hmm." ”
"So...... Are we going to fight this time also heinous bad guys? Mu Chonglan looked at Xiao Xiantang and suddenly asked.
Xiao Xiantang understood that the reason why Mu Chonglan asked this was because Mu Chonglan heard Zhao Yongkang's words just now and went to his heart.
"Are you sympathetic to the soldiers who don't know what they're fighting for?" Xiao Xiantang asked.
Mu Chonglan nodded: "I think they are very pitiful. ”
"Then do you think that if we don't resist, we are waiting to be slaughtered, are we also pitiful?" Xiao Xiantang asked.
Mu Chonglan choked, not knowing how to answer.
Xiao Xiantang continued: "Your thoughts, in fact, there is nothing wrong, originally we were going to fight, it was not some heinous bad guys, to put it bluntly, those soldiers in the army, it is likely that they just mixed up and joined the navy, none of them really want to sacrifice their lives for the country, but many things are like this, they enjoy military salaries, these military salaries are the barley taxes of the people, and the people pay the grain they have worked so hard to plant, just to let them eat enough and have the strength to defend their families and the country, so you say they are pitiful." In fact, when they decide to enlist in the army and eat military salaries, they should realize that they are likely to be sacrificed, and this is a fair exchange, understand? ”
