Chapter 647: Endure the pain
In fact, the statement that there is no return is a bit too soft.
The Federation of Beran has always had the custom of "wolf packism".
Among the wolves, the head wolf is able to reign over the wolves, and it is not hereditary like some human societies.
On the one hand, it is because of its own strength, and on the other hand, because it is more experienced and able to lead the wolves to obtain benefits together.
For example, as a ruler, the territory grows and prospers.
Or properly organize defenses to resist the invasion of a strong enemy.
However, the Berans are more often aggressive than others.
In other words, it is a reason to lead the pack of wolves to hunt large prey, and then divide the flesh and blood.
If it weren't for the cooperation under the dispatch of the head wolf, they could obtain prey more efficiently and have a stronger ability to resist risks, there would definitely be few wolves who would be subordinates to the head wolf, and they would rather be lone rangers.
The loyalty of the wolf to the head wolf...... Even if it really exists, it will definitely not have much weight, probably no bigger than a mung bean.
And more wolves are just here for pure profit.
Once the strength and command of the head wolf are weakened, the wild young male wolf will be eager to try, thinking that "he can take his place".
If it weakens to a certain extent, it will inevitably be challenged by the young male wolf, and eventually it will always be defeated and ousted from the throne!
If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that there are many phenomena that occur among the nobles of the Beran Federation.
At least three times more likely to happen than in places like the Duchy of Lothar, which is one of the drawbacks of wolf packing.
If he fails to bring enough benefits, or reveals that he does not have enough strength to suppress his subordinates, many Belan military leaders will face the risk of betrayal by their subordinates, or even raise a rebellion to overthrow him.
Before the head of the Beran army took his soldiers into this war, he promised the soldiers a lot, and even bragged about some cattle to attract more people to join the army, saying that they would definitely make a fortune in this war.
Such things as eating wine and meat, and talking about the division of gold and silver, are probably not less.
Some soldiers even borrowed money to buy better equipment and horses, waiting for a big robbery to pay off the debt.
When they arrived at the principality, the soldiers found that the principality was not as rich as they boasted, but they were still able to grab some of their possessions, so they were barely satisfied.
If they don't get anything in return, they're afraid they're going to mutiny.
And now Vytautas says that if you take these trophies, you can't run fast, and you will only drag down the army?
Isn't the implication of this sentence that in order to escape, they must give up most of their loot? What are you kidding?
For a while, everyone was in an uproar.
Vytautas wasn't going to let them think too long, and it wouldn't be good if they started yelling.
So he immediately continued: "I don't think anyone can accept this ending.
If we were to throw away the loot we had worked so hard to collect, the hearts of the soldiers would immediately be scattered. When the time comes, both you and I will be in danger.
So, we have to take into account the worse and come to our senses. ”
Seeing that his face became solemn, the rest of the people couldn't help but be brought into such an atmosphere.
They whispered, "What kind of enlightenment is it, what can we do, and what should we do?"
