51. Bloody Rain and Bloody Wind (2)

Sun Tiejian said: "Okay, I will personally give the order for this massacre. You don't have to second. "Then how can you do it? Third brother, how can you let this credit be monopolized by yourself? If you eat meat yourself, you have to give me some soup to drink." Our government department always has to express its position, so as not to let people say that you are relying on military power to bully me, who is a younger brother. Zhang Zeshan said dissatisfied.

Everyone laughed. Sun Tiejian said: "Okay, if you have merit, you will receive it together, and if you have sin, we are brothers, the so-called brothers who fight tigers, let us carry it together if there is anything." "That's exactly how it should be. Everyone said in unison. Everyone looked at each other, laughed together, and laughed at the unknown life.

For Sun Tiejian's decision, everyone understands, although the Yanhuang clan can borrow the butcher's knife of the subordinate race, but, to put it mildly, as long as this kind of thing is not too stupid, everyone knows that the Yanhuang clan is the mastermind behind the scenes. In addition, the subordinate race is a unit under the leadership of the Yanhuang clan, even if the Yanhuang clan does not personally handle it, but this leadership responsibility cannot be escaped. Of course, leadership responsibility is much lighter than direct responsibility.

Second, if their subordinates slaughter civilians, the Yanhuang tribe can't help but express their stance, whether they support or oppose it? Is it a reward or punishment for those soldiers who slaughter civilians? This must have an explanation to the outside world, right? In this way, it is impossible for the Yanhuang tribe to stay out of the matter. Because, no matter how you express your attitude, there must be a conclusion on this matter, whether it is right or wrong, the Yanhuang clan always has to make an appearance, this attitude is expressed, can the Yanhuang clan still be invisible?

Again, with such a large-scale massacre of civilians, there must be an explanation for why the civilians were to be slaughtered. For the sake of the reputation of righteousness, the Yanhuang clan always has to send a conquest document or something like that, in other words, let the people of the Tianhu Empire die and be a clear ghost, knowing what they will die for, what is the difference between this document and the Yanhuang tribe's direct order? This explanation is also an explanation to the civilians of the subordinate races, unless they are extremely perverted, otherwise they will not think that their army's slaughter of civilians of other races is a legitimate act, even if it is an order from the superiors. Therefore, if the Yanhuang Clan ordered the slaughter of all the civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire without a reason that everyone could understand and agree with, it would only make the civilians of all the subordinate races panic, and it would not be conducive to the rule of the Yanhuang Clan in the future.

What really made Sun Tiejian decide to issue this order by himself was his own retreat throughout the day. He was asking himself, "Is it right or wrong for me to use the subordinate race to evade the responsibility that should belong to me, and is it right or wrong for me to slaughter the civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire?"

This is the core question, if according to the world realm of ordinary people, these civilians are innocent, they did not personally participate in the war of extermination that began in ancient times, and the war that the Heavenly Tiger Empire started tens of thousands of years ago or even hundreds of thousands of years ago will not count their heads, and it is the father and the son who are not guilty of what they do. What justification should the son bear the sins of the father? According to the laws of the ordinary world, the father's sin is his own business, and it cannot be counted on the son's head.

In ancient China (and modern times, too), A killed B's father, and after B had achieved something, but A died, then B would most likely record the revenge of killing his father on the account of A's son, and kill A's son to avenge his father, which is a normal thing. From the perspective of ordinary people's law, B is of course breaking the law and unreasonable, but in the eyes of the Chinese, this is precisely very reasonable, which is the so-called feud. Of course, if after A kills someone, even all the descendants are killed, then other people will come out and kill A, and his name is "Acting for Heaven". This one is one of the simplest moral concepts of the Chinese.

In ancient China, no matter how fierce the struggle was, most of them adhered to one principle: the gentleman should not be descended. It's okay to kill people, but it's not right to destroy people again. This is already the most basic moral bottom line of the Chinese, so whoever destroys the door will most likely be destroyed by people, because this kind of person who violates the bottom line of the first is guilty of public anger, you can destroy the door of A today, he can also destroy the door of B today, and the day after tomorrow it is more likely to destroy the door of C and Ding, so this method of destroying the door even the emperor of the feudal era does not dare to use lightly. In China's thousands of years of imperial dynasties, there are not many people who have really been wiped out by the Nine Clans, and most of these people have committed extremely serious crimes. (Of course, there are also wronged ones.) It is reasonable for the emperor to destroy one or two people, but ordinary people, even if it is a battle between political enemies, there are very few people who are full of people.

The Heavenly Tiger Empire has wiped out countless races, and the races that died tragically under the butcher's knife of the Heavenly Tiger Empire's army do not know how many, and the number of deaths cannot be calculated. Even if it is not measured by the law of cultivators, even according to the most common moral concept in ancient China, it is normal for the Heavenly Tiger Empire to be exterminated: your race is too ferocious, and you will destroy the entire race at every turn, if you don't destroy it, will anyone still be able to sleep? This is the simplest common sense.

This is true of ancient Chinese morality, let alone cultivators. In the world of cultivators, there has never been a saying that the father sins and the son does not accept the sins of the father, and the father and the son have to suffer. The father's sin will be recorded on the son's head, and if it can't be repaid in the son, it will be recorded on the grandson's head, and if the grandson's body can't be repaid, it will be recorded on the head of the great-grandson, so that the generation will write it down, and the sin will be invalid because time has passed too long, and the sin will always exist, unless it is a certain generation that has made great contributions and offset the sin, so that peace can be kept, otherwise, even after hundreds of millions of years, this sin will eventually be retributed. This is the cycle of heavenly principles, retribution is not happy, it is not that it is not repaid, the time has not come.

The Heavenly Tiger Empire has wiped out countless clans, and I really don't know how big this sin is, and today when they encounter the Yanhuang Clan, it is time for this sin to be avenged. Therefore, the civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire should also pay for what their ancestors have done. In a mysterious sentence, it is: The number of qi has been exhausted, and the clan should be exterminated in revenge. Therefore, the civilians of the Celestial Tiger Empire deserve to die.

Sun Tiejian's profession is not a judge, but he has the power of a judge, he now controls the life and death of the civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire, and in the face of a criminal who should be executed, his duty is to sentence the criminal to death, which is his responsibility, but before he used the subordinate race to slaughter the civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire, it is obvious that he is evading his responsibility.

Cultivators, what they are most afraid of are demons. Yes, the order to massacre civilians is extremely difficult for anyone to make this decision (as long as there is a trace of conscience of the leader will find it very difficult to make such a decision), but this is his responsibility, he does not give a judgment but gives this judgment to others, no matter what reason he uses to defend himself, to escape is to escape, there is no room for quibbling, he can deceive others, but can he deceive himself?

What will be the consequences after issuing the slaughter order, he doesn't know, although the civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire deserve to die, but the sin of this killing is indeed too big, so big that even he feels cold, but he understands even more that if he doesn't give this order, it means that he will carry this burden in the future and make him his own demon, from then on, he will not want to go further, it can be said that he will be abolished from now on.

Sun Tiejian also asked himself, what was the purpose of slaughtering the civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire? for his own interests, for the interests of the Yanhuang Clan, or was it just out of the heart of the Heavenly Dao? Just because the people of the Heavenly Tiger Empire deserved to die, they should be executed?

For the sake of personal interests, Sun Tiejian has not been crazy to this extent, plus the existence of civilians in the Heavenly Tiger Empire does not match Sun Tiejian's personal interests at all, with the existence of those civilians, Sun Tiejian will not lose half a hair. For the collective interests of the Yanhuang Clan, the Tianhu Empire has too many civilians, and there are many people, which will indeed cause some trouble for the Yanhuang Clan to rule the Yanhuang River System in the future, but it is only some minor troubles, and when the war is won, Sun Tiejian has some ways to reduce the population of the Tianhu Empire, such as shrinking the territory of the Tianhu Clan and the kingdoms, so that their resources are insufficient, so that they can force the Tianhu Kingdom to reduce its population. The simplest way is to say that the merits of the kingdoms of the Heavenly Tiger Clan are not enough, and they cannot occupy all the current territory and reduce their territory by half, and the kingdoms of the Heavenly Tiger Clan will have to consider whether the reduced territory can support so many people. Another order to restrict births or some other policy to ensure that the population of the Heavenly Tiger Clan is not too large. Therefore, if it was in the interests of the Yanhuang Clan, there was no need to use such drastic means as slaughtering the civilians of the Heavenly Tiger Empire.

The Buddha has a cloud: to eliminate evil is to promote good. Even if I am a Buddha, there are times when I turn anger into Vajra, and in the face of evil, killing to stop killing is not the best means, but it is the most effective means. The Heavenly Tiger Empire has accumulated enough evils over millions of years, and it's time for them to pay their debts. As soon as he thought of this, Sun Tiejian completely let go of all his burdens.

When Sun Tiejian made the most difficult decision, he only felt that his whole body was relaxed, and his cultivation had also improved by one level, although the realm of cultivation had not improved, but his perception of the Tao had greatly improved. "This is probably what my father said about cultivating the mind. Sure enough, if the state of mind is not reached, the thoughts cannot be reached, even if you comprehend more Tao, it is useless, only when the realm of the soul is reached, then it is called attainment. Now, although my skill cultivation has not improved, the benefits I have obtained are real, and I only need to be given a while longer, and I should be able to greatly improve my cultivation by a while. ”

All the subordinate races received the latest order from the general headquarters of the Yan and Huang Clan: "Wherever the army goes, destroy the entire clan of the Heavenly Tiger Empire." If you don't accept surrender, even civilians, you need to be eliminated. "After receiving the order from the Yanhuang Clan's General Headquarters, all the leaders of the subordinate races were completely relieved, the order to slaughter did not need to be given by them, then they were naturally much more relaxed. However, they didn't know the mood struggle of the top level of the Yanhuang Clan, but no matter what, they couldn't help but admire the group of leaders of the Yanhuang Clan, such an order should have been carried by the subordinates, but the Yanhuang Clan did not transfer this black cauldron to their heads, for which they were still grateful.
