Chapter 279: The Sleeping Nation

I don't know why I did it, I just knew that I wanted to do it, and it was as if a set of genetic code hidden in my body opened up in an instant at a critical moment for the survival of the nation.

"Brother, where are we going?" Chen Xiaoman was also packing his luggage.

"North!" I'll reply.

"Ahh Brother, didn't you hear what I said clearly! Everyone is fleeing to the south, but you are going north? Chen Xiaoman was stunned.

I nodded, "Well, the ethnicity is not a racial difference, it's just a cultural belief difference, I'm going to go to their tribe to meet their leader and explain it to them." ”

"But they're going to listen to you?" Chen Xiaoman asked.

"If you don't listen to me, you will arouse thousands of Han sons and daughters to fight them to the end, because this is no longer a simple territorial war, but a massacre of one nation against another."

I briefly took some necessities and planned to go out and rent a few fast horses, not wanting to see the fleeing civilians as soon as I got out, carrying their cattle with their luggage and carrying dry rations with their families and mouths.

"Young man, run away with your family, the rebel army is outside the city, and if you don't leave, it's too late!" An old man reminded.

"Okay, I'll leave right away."

I looked at the pedestrians hurrying by, including some young and strong men, grabbed one and asked: "Foreigners have stepped on their homes, robbed me of my finances and humiliated my wife and daughters and sisters, as a Chinese man, why don't you raise your weapons and fight hard?" ”

The man looked at me like a psychopath, shook me off and said, "I want to go to you, I don't want to die for those mediocre court nobles!" ”

"How can defending one's homeland against foreign enemies be said to be working for others?" I asked.

The man gave me a blank look: "Is there a difference?" Does it matter to me who becomes the emperor? I'm just a leek to be slaughtered! ”

I still want to say something but the man is far away, and then another brother reminds me: "Hey buddy, hurry up and run away with your wife and children, the general trend is the only one who can be injured if you don't run!" ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but ask myself, how can a nation that makes its people feel that it is none of their business can resist a united foreign enemy! How can we protect the rich and vast homeland land!

At this point, perhaps we should understand that history is not our shame, but a mirror through which we can see the problem. It was not our ancestors who caused the shame of my great country, but those imperial strategists who pretended to be human dogs! It is the end result of their oppression of their own people and the fooling of their own people all day long.

But even so, we should reflect on the bad things, because not all the national culture is right, and the things of the ancestors are not necessarily all the truth. Imagine if there were no villains who flattered evilly, shrewd people who lied and deceived repeatedly, and hypocrites who saw money, would our country have produced a lot of corrupt officials and corrupt officials?

As the saying goes, a thousand-mile embankment collapses in an anthill! So some complex problems are very simple, and the ancestors have summed it up very well, as long as we are diligent and use our brains more, maybe we only need to come up with a few words of caution, which is enough to solve all the problems we face.

As the civilians gradually evacuated away, they were followed by strangely dressed and fierce-looking alien soldiers, who killed and robbed people when they saw them, and many of them were also taken captive by young women who did not have time to evacuate.

This scene is familiar to me!

Because the same is true of modern Chinese history, it is a normal phenomenon of a conqueror to a conquered person!

With a "bang" I pulled out the Moon Devouring Sword and raised it above my head: "I am the Holy Monarch of the Underworld, I want to see your leader, and I will bother you brothers to report it." ”

The soldiers had already noticed me, and many of them had heard of the Holy Sword, and offered to introduce me to their leader.

I followed them along the way, and the road was littered with scarred corpses, as well as naked women who had been bullied. Then we entered a large manor, where the maidservants who had not had time to escape were being raped by these wolf-like vicious soldiers, and there were bursts of wailing cries for help.

I pretended to turn a blind eye, but a righteous heart longed to slaughter those soldiers with my own hands, and I had no choice but to ask for the law of three points of shortness in doing things, so I had to give up for the time being.

"Oh, I don't know if the Holy Monarch has lost his welcome, and I still hope that the Holy Monarch will atone for his sins."

Their leader was also a rough fellow, with a thick, messy beard and a little raw foam on his mouth.

I also politely said, "The chief is surprised, and I have something to discuss with the chief." ”

"Oh, Holy Monarch, please come in quickly, and listen to you."

I followed him into the hall, and it was filled with armoured soldiers, with liquor and raw meat beside them. In stark contrast, the daughters of the Han family, whose clothes had long since disappeared, were trembling and cheering them up.

"Holy Monarch, please take a seat!"

The lord beckoned me to sit down, and then commanded, "Come! Pour wine and meat for the Holy Monarch, the wine bowl should be the largest bowl, and the meat should be the freshest meat! ”

Immediately afterwards, a soldier hugged a large wine jar, poured a large bowl of wine and placed it in front of me, and brought a pot of fresh meat, and said, "Holy King, please use it." ”

I nodded in gratitude, but I felt sick to my stomach when I saw the liquor soaked in human ears and the raw meat mixed with human fingers in the jar.

The leader saw my discomfort, laughed a few times and said, "Hahaha, the Holy Monarch doesn't know, this is called celebration wine." Every time I capture a city, I will deliberately choose to go to the families of the generals in the city to pickle wine and take meat to reward the soldiers, boost morale and comfort the hearts of the army! ”

"Is your morale a boost? Is it glorious to take down an empty city? Do you really think that you have captured the Central Plains on your own? ”

My successive questions angered the chief, only to see him slap the table, and the shaking bowl spilled wine: "Holy Monarch, don't toast and don't eat and drink!" In my eyes, you are no different from those weak Han Chinese! ”

I nodded again and again, "Well, you're right, I'm originally a Han Chinese, and I'm really no different from them!" But haven't the nomadic herds you thought were strong for thousands of years been hiding in the frontiers where food and water are scarce? ”

The leader drew his scimitar with a "whoosh": "What do you mean?" ”

I waved my hand for him to put down his knife and said, "The leader misunderstood, I just want to say that your wildness is shaped by your environment, and our meekness is also shaped by our environment. What environment shapes what kind of people, and is the leader very different from me? ”

The leader put away his knife and snorted: "I agree with this, but what do you mean when you say that we are at the end of our lives in a desolate land?" ”

I took the bloodshot liquor and drank it down: "I just want you to know who is strong and who is weak, and you don't need to hurt anyone." ”
