The false prosperity of the North Vietnamese State was self-defeating in the eyes of Xia Yanfeng. What kind of "peaceful and prosperous age" is a "prosperous age" that even the hungry people cannot tolerate? There can be no "perfection" in the world, but if we have to demand perfection, we can only create a morbid beauty. naively thought that if all the poor people were killed, only the rich would be left in the country, but in fact, the rest were just devils in human skin, and those "devils" were all bright and shallow and foolish clowns, scum among the scum.

Smithton paused, he knew that the topic had been distant, maybe it was a matter of time before the Human Guild would use troops against North Vietnam, but there was no direct causal relationship with whether there was a famine or not, whether there were displaced people. If Sutren wants to use soldiers, he can find a reason to give the target of the crusade some unwarranted last, and then he can go out under the banner of guild orthodoxy and make a high-sounding appearance, but now, the famine seems to be a conclusive fact, although there are no secret agents of the human guild in North Vietnam, but this kind of thing, whether true or not, has nothing to do with the guild. Because, the criminal acts of these homeless people are true, and this is enough, and it is not their consistent style to get to the bottom of the grass people.

"Lord William......" Smith swallowed his saliva, and finally brought the topic of Xia Yanfeng's distraction back on track, "What should those mobs do? Whether they want to attack North Vietnam or not, the immediate situation must be dealt with in advance." ”

Xia Yanfeng saw that Smith was straight to the point, and he didn't bother to go around again, so he waved his hand at him casually: "Let it go...... It's all put ......."

"Huh?" Smith thought he had misheard, "What? Let it go? What are you kidding? Those mobs who rob grain and grass have violated the rules of the guild, how can they say that they will let it go?"

"Oh, then I won't let it go. Xia Yanfeng looked informal, and drank a little wine by himself, "Well...... Anyway, I don't plan to just let them go, let them go, then they will only starve to death in the end. ”

"So?" Smithton was confused, "Lord William, are you going to ......?"

"To tell you the truth, we don't need to execute them, these people are all bargaining chips for my future success. Xia Yanfeng said with a light smile, "Whether you kill them or not, whether they have committed a crime or not, President Su can't see it, if you are loyal to me, then do as I say." Open the granary and feed these people, maybe they only have a few people left, it doesn't seem to be of much use to me, but I still have to give them a good meal. This is my order, so if you are my Xia William's man, you know what to do. ”

"Ah......" Smith was stunned, "this...... Are you serious, Lord William, what is the point of feeding these homeless people? To you, these people are nothing more than ants, do you really care about their lives?"

"Whether you care or not, it's not the key, this is my willful decision once in a while William Xia, you just do it. ”

"But...... Lord William, they have violated the rules of heaven! If you forgive them, won't you set a bad example?" Smith was still persuading, "Please think twice, Lord William, these grass people, are they really worthy of your noble hand?"

"If I kill them or not, no one will know! What a bad example, I can't even talk about 'show'!" Xia Yanfeng's attitude suddenly became categorical, "These homeless people are guilty of stealing food, but don't forget, the most fundamental survival of human beings is the most important, and only by living can everything be meaningful." If a group of people are so hungry that even filling their stomachs is like a fantasy, and they cannot guarantee even the most basic survival, then why should you ask them to obey the laws and regulations made by those 'meat eaters'? They can't even survive, and talking to them about those moral and etiquette laws is tantamount to playing the harp to a cow. Anyway, they are all dead, and instead of waiting for death, they would rather give it a go and come to a robbery that they can leave. Thinking about it from another perspective, it is also a precarious situation, can you and I talk about morality, and care about those useless pretenses when we die? Won't we be unscrupulous? At least I, in a desperate situation, the dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, and it is a thousand times more 'evil' than these mobs, and it is not even as simple as grabbing some food. If I can't protect myself, it has nothing to do with me, a person like me who can pull the whole world into hell in order to survive, I am not qualified to punish a group of poor worms who take risks for survival, if you want to deal with them, then deal with me first, in the face of the same situation, I am a thousand times more than them. ”

"Lord William......" Smith changed color when he heard this, and for a moment, he felt his heart beat faster. These words are full of good words. After the shock, the heart fluctuated, the soul seemed to fluctuate, and then it was full of emotion, "You...... You say, really...... The order is ashamed of itself...... Lord William's words have benefited me a lot......"

Xia Yanfeng seemed to ignore Smith completely, and continued to talk about "education": "We can't consider everything unilaterally and rigidly, let alone simply use good and evil as the dividing point to deal with things, what we have to look at is the pros and cons, not good and evil." For these poor creatures who give them enough food and are harmless to humans and animals, you might as well accumulate some virtue and tolerate them a little. I'm going to starve you Smith for more than ten days, and I'm going to put you in the wild, and you're not going to drink blood, and you're hungry? So, you should understand, right?"

"Hmm...... What Lord William said was true. Smith nodded in response, "Here's where food is prepared for them......

"Wait!" Xia Yanfeng waved his hand with a smile, Tell them by the way that these people can be spared the death penalty, but after they have eaten their fill, give them two options, one is to escort them to the execution ground after the meal, and the second is to put them into my personal armed forces to serve, and if you can preach that the Treon city guard is kind to the people, willing to give them food, and lead the rest of the hungry people of North Vietnam to vote, they will be rewarded, and if they are women, let them be trained, and choose those who are of outstanding appearance to be sent to the palace as palace maids, and if they are not good, then they will be pulled into the army to be coolies. Smith, what do you think of this arrangement?"

"Wonderful! wonderful! wonderful!" Smith immediately gave a thumbs up, his face was full of joy, and he was full of praise for Xia Yanfeng's proposal, "Lord William, I really didn't misunderstand you! You are really 'a god descending from heaven', absolutely, absolutely! Such an arrangement is simply like a god made by heaven, perfect and wonderful, and President Su and Guo Junshi are afraid that they will be ashamed of themselves." ”

"You don't have to slap the horse, although I know you mean the truth. Xia Yanfeng chuckled indifferently, "I think that since the hungry people who finally got a glimmer of life can come to me from thousands of miles away, then no one will choose to be executed." Hungry for this, give them a few mouthfuls to eat, and they can't help but be grateful to me. It's a rare opportunity to expand my personal portfolio, how can I let it go?"

With Sutron behind his back and recruiting troops in private, Xia Yanfeng will naturally do it, and now he controls the military power of Terren City, and Smith is his hardcore cronies, and Sutron is still fighting against strong enemies on the front line. Seeing the overall situation of the world, it is becoming more and more beneficial to Xia Yanfeng, at this time, Xia Yanfeng can no longer make trouble with Lu Xiaotian, he doesn't need to take that kind of risk.

Yes, there is no need anymore. As long as you accumulate enough troops, you can fan the flames in the rear to fight for territory, and you can also retreat to the dungeon to try to settle down, anyway, the secrets of the dungeon, Su Trun, Guo Xing and others are unknown. Of course, regardless of whether it is wise or not to do this, Xia Yanfeng rebelled in the rear, and no one would take care of it. Sutlon is fighting fiercely on the front line, Sun Chao is going south to Ryant City to rectify the south, and he is about to open up the territory, and what he does is his freedom.

However, Xia Yanfeng did not do this, because the time was not yet ripe, and between the great changes in the world, Xia Yanfeng had to wait, waiting for the moment when the opportunity really came, that is, when Sutron and Guo Xing ceased to exist, he could really do whatever he wanted, and in the meantime, he only needed to wait quietly in Treon City, even if he waited for several years to exhaust his youth, he just needed not to forget the grand ambition in his chest when he was enjoying Qingfu. Anyway, Lu Xiaotian can't find trouble with him now, so wouldn't it be great to let him fight to the death with Sutren's group first?

But...... No! In Xia Yanfeng's heart, the residual obsession cannot be erased in eternal life! This is the last trace of willfulness that he must identify with himself and forgive himself...... That resentment, that shadow, he must dissolve it with his own hands! Lu Xiaotian must be personally slashed by him Xia Yanfeng! No matter what, if you want to lead to the apex of glory, you can't help but cross this hurdle!

Xia Yanfeng didn't hate Lu Xiaotian much, but he insisted that Lu Xiaotian must die! Although he couldn't bear to make a big plan, he couldn't abandon his calm thinking, but if he was cowardly here, then he Xia Yanfeng would not deserve the title of "Prince of Thunder" at all, or even "Xia Yanfeng".

For the sake of life, he can endure; for the sake of the world, he can also endure it; for the sake of his own personal grudges, for the sake of power and profit, for the sake of friendship, family affection, and love, he can endure everything! But he can never tolerate Lu Xiaotian! Perhaps Xia Yanfeng is not a person who loves to be in the limelight and is brave and brave, but even if he doesn't want to think about the reason for fighting, he must deal with Lu Xiaotian if he fights for the sake of fighting. I don't ask why, just ask myself, have you really overcome the shadow of the past, and whether you have regained your strength, crossed the bottleneck period of heroes, and crossed this barrier that could not be overcome.

Yes, he wants to prove that his strength is not what it used to be. He has become stronger, and he has to prove with practical actions that he has indeed become stronger, and Lu Xiaotian is his best experiment. He didn't dare to be arrogant and conceited to say that he would definitely be able to defeat Lu Xiaotian, but if he could defeat Lu Xiaotian, the big stone that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time would really be completely shattered, and he would no longer bear the burden of humiliation, hiding that "stone" in his heart. If he can defeat Lu Xiaotian, he doesn't need to endure anything, and it doesn't hurt to laugh out loud, at that time, he will have a new beginning, and there will not be so many backlogs of burdens in the future journey.

Endure the shame, just for a better revenge, there is nothing more refreshing than a snow before the shame. Excluding the synonym of "humiliation", there may be more humiliation waiting for him in the future, but he can use "Lu Xiaotian" to encourage himself. Look! Even Lu Xiaotian can be defeated by him, what else can't he do? Beyond himself, there is a wilderness in front of him, let him gallop freely! He is Xia Yanfeng, he is the son of destiny! Destiny will always be on his side, and there is no need for charity from the hands behind the scenes, and his pride is only controlled by himself! My fate is up to me, not to heaven!
