The injury on Ren Di's shoulder was not very serious, the bullet passed through the muscles of the shoulder and did not hurt the bones, which was equivalent to a blunt knife cutting on the shoulder. This is enough to shock the soul of an ordinary person.

War is a cost, and the nature of war cannot be whitewashed by reason, regardless of the reason for fighting. However, since this price has been paid, whether the reason for the war is insisted on or not, you need to torture yourself. As for this torture, people in this era may have thousands of reasons and doubts, but Ren Di, who has seen the future, has no reason to hesitate, and must give people in this era an accurate answer. If Ren Di is the person who is most qualified to give answers, in this era of whether you must get an answer or not, silence and failure to answer is tantamount to believing that your own person is sinning.

Ren Di's answer is to persist in this war, fight, and at least create stability and peace for this land for more than 50 years.

Zhu Yuerong took a look at Ren Di's wound and found no signs of infection. Her Royal Highness, the princess who accidentally blended into the revolutionary team, met Ren Di again. It seemed that Ren Di would also be injured when he saw it for the first time, and Her Royal Highness the princess couldn't help but sneak a few glances. Looking at it so closely, Zhu Yuerong felt that the current Ren Di was not as glorious and majestic as everyone saw before, and it seemed to be the source of the heavy atmosphere in the ward.

Zhu Yuerong, who seemed to feel Ren Di's two-facedness, was very strange, but Ren Di felt Zhu Yuerong's gaze, turned his head and looked at it and said, "Doctor Su, is there something wrong?" Zhu Yuerong was glanced at by this seeping gaze, and was a little flustered. Seeing this sister-in-law's cool appearance, Ren Di also suddenly realized, smiled randomly and said, "It's okay, I just thought about some tangled things." ”

Zhu Yuerong felt that her momentum had just been overwhelmed, straightened her face, and said, "You are in a sick state, it is best to maintain a good mood." Looking at this girl's efforts to maintain her momentum, there is a kind of arrogant performance that refuses to admit defeat. Ren Di felt that his mood was a little clearer.

From Ren Di's expression, he seemed to feel that he was being treated like a little girl. The 17-year-old said: "If there's anything you can't figure out, if it's not confidential, you might as well talk to me, and as a psychiatrist, I'll keep it secret for you." ”

Ren Di smiled and said, "I'm wondering if there is a god in the world?" Zhu Yuerong said: "The Workers and Peasants should be atheists. Why do you wonder about this? Ren Di saw a wisp of emotion hidden in the corner of Zhu Yuerong's eyes to find your fault. He smiled indifferently and said, "I pay attention to seeking truth from facts, if God did not really come to me, I would not be sure that God exists in this world." But that doesn't mean I won't fantasize and try to imagine in this direction. ”

Zhu Yuerong slept and said, "Do you have a need for faith in this regard?" Ren Di shook his head and said: "Imagination does not mean that there is a need for this, it is just a curiosity about fantasy, for example, you, you have newspaper clippings in your drawer, and the famous serialized fantasy novels in the Haisong Business Daily of "Son of Light" collected do not mean that you are exploring priest healing. Zhu Yuerong, who was discovered by Ren Di's keen eyes and discovered her little hobby, suddenly felt ashamed of being discovered in secret.

Ren Di said: "At our young age, to say that there are no illusions is against human nature. This sentence suddenly woke up Zhu Yuerong, the person in front of her who had commanded hundreds of thousands of troops in the southern and northern wars seemed to be only in his twenties now. Such a young face was made by an inexplicable temperament, like an adult in his thirties and forties.

Ren Di's eyes jumped with a strange light, and said: "I'm thinking that if there is really a god and ghost, a life form that is allowed by the physical meaning at this stage, and there is really the power of faith and the concept of Godhead, what am I now?" ”

Zhu Yuerong suddenly felt curious, she had a premonition that Ren Di was going to spit out some shocking language.

The smile on Ren Di's face turned solemn, and then changed to solemn. He said softly: "I am more and more aware that I am now burdened with countless beliefs, and I am a mortal who has been instilled with the power of faith but has no godhead. I've always been mortal, and now I seem to be living for those trusts. I really don't know what the gods are like who watch pious believers pray every day, but can live up to them without hesitation, I think this kind of god no longer has human feelings, maybe this is the so-called Godhead. It's really ugly. ”

Zhu Yuerong smiled wryly, originally thinking that Ren Di's heart was suddenly weak, and he began to be afraid of a god who raised his head three feet away. If Ren Di admits theism with this mentality, it is estimated that he will be loudly denounced by all the temple clergy as "blasphemous". This is simply the stubble of the gods that mortals claim to have raised their gaze to the same angle as the gods.

Zhu Yuerong said: "Are you dissatisfied with God? Ren Di said: "I can't talk about dissatisfaction, I haven't seen any evidence of its existence, and I am convinced of its existence at all, how can I be dissatisfied with an item that may be illusory." My grievances will only be directed at what I see as actual existence. For example, there are priests who persuade people to believe but do not secure, and there are priests who believe in response. The existence of these realities, which I ask others to believe with the help of unprovable gods, should be my dissatisfaction. For example, I am also dissatisfied with the system of unconditionally limiting death to the height that a person strives to reach in the world with the help of noble blood and birth advantages. I can tolerate my incompetence, after all, in this wonderful world, I am destined to make mistakes because of ignorance. But I can't tolerate people who are as ignorant as me who come to me can say that I am doomed, and that other people with color are doomed. ”

Zhu Yuerong said: "This is the reason why you have come to this point. Ren Di nodded and said, "That's the reason." This has always been the reason. However, when I really came to this road, the price made me, a small citizen, question my own reasons again and again. ”

Zhu Yuerong said: "So, do you regret it now? Still found out, it's not worth it. Ren Di smiled self-deprecatingly: "Worthiness must be worthwhile, there have already been pioneers who have proven the value of moving forward." It's just that I didn't expect the price to be so big, and I regret it a little, because these should have been borne by great people, and I'm just a mortal. ”

After being silent for a while, Ren Di said, "Thank you for listening to me talk about these boring things. ”

Zhu Yuerong said: "These are not boring. By the way, you are not mortal, since you are standing in the position of a hero, even if you are pushed up by the times, you did not run away. So you're not mortal. If you are mortal, then there are no heroes in history. ”

This dialogue will appear in the memoirs of Her Royal Highness Princess Zhu Yuerong. Ren Di, who was in his early twenties, defeated various armies one after another after his debut, and led an invincible army formerly a miner, facing the most powerful armed forces in the world. It's like an epic recreation of Alexander's ascension to the throne at the age of twenty and his sweep to India. When a person has a strong feat, there are always people who want to understand.

After three days in the hospital, Ren Di will return to the command headquarters to open a unique scene in the history of this industrial age war in the next year.

In November 1705, in the northeast of the country, the Hai Song Dynasty had gathered a huge army of 360,000 troops from 12 group armies, and a huge supply fleet broke through the waves and entered the Bohai Bay. However, as the fleet grew, so did the flaws in the supply lines. For example, now. An old turtle-like black object, suspended above the water. The marching fleet did not notice this presence that appeared and disappeared in the waves.

As the flotilla kept getting closer. The object finally collided with the bow of the ship. Mines, for Hai Song's incomparably powerful sea power, the Republican Army did not sit back and watch Ren Di fight alone in the Northeast. An electrolyte-triggered anchor mine was produced. A production line was formed, mass-produced in Shandong, and then sprinkled in the Bohai Bay, mobilizing fishermen to lay mines on the sea in the dark of night, and cut off their supply lines at sea. Create conditions for the victory of the Northeast Army.

A violent explosion is triggered under water, and the blast wave along with the incompressible nature of the water easily tears the steel plates below the waterline of the vessel. A large amount was poured into the ship along the breach. Soon the ship began to tilt, and after a while the bow of the ship was unbalanced, and it quickly sank into the horizon, leaving behind a deep whirlpool of black and swarthy whirlpools, engulfing the floating debris that had not had time to swim far.

In just 10 days, 56 ships were struck by mines and sunk, causing serious damage to Hai Song's sea supply line through Bohai Bay to Liaodong. However, at this stage, 360,000 troops had been transported to Jiaodong. Bring the Pioneer Group. In the northeast, Beiliang will soon taste the effects of this change.

Frost can be seen here in the morning in November, but snow has begun to fall in the northeast. Looking at the snowflakes outside, Ren Di asked Wen Sifang, "Sifang, is it cold in winter in the Northeast?" ”

Wen Sifang said: "Boss, in the winter of the Northeast, the old nose is cold." Ren Di smiled and said, "If it's cold in the snow." Wen Sifang said: "Then you have to bring a big hat, wear a cotton jacket, and be careful when touching the iron pipe of the gun." ”

Ren Di nodded and said: "The recruits have almost been trained, and this winter, I hope that our 200,000 recruits can become veterans." The logistics must be ready. Wen Sifang said: "The boss has a big battle to fight?" ”

Ren Di said: "Winter is the best time to fight with those southerners. It was also the best moment to make up for my lack of experience as a recruit. I also have little experience in dealing with winter. ”

The breath of war began to thicken, Ren Di began to prepare in the factory, a large number of bullet-making machinery was turned into machine parts under the suppression of the softening force field, and a thousand artillery pieces with metal edges and corners rolled off the production line. At the same time, the Northeast Republican Army began to collect cotton and sew military coats by women.

From August to November this year, Ren Di has been waiting, waiting for winter, and has been preparing for winter, and now winter is coming.
