35 The fate has been decided

In order to wipe out the more than 400 Japanese pursuers of the "Kendo Small Art of War" and "Koga Ninjutsu", together with the two or three hundred Japanese who came from Gu Yuncheng to reinforce here, De Yizi actually set up a fire attack strategy, and took advantage of the steep fog at night to set fire to the entire forest within a radius of more than 30 miles. The "Suzaku" team, composed of more than 500 displaced civilians, was obviously just a bait to lure the enemy into the urn, and from the time the plan was drawn up, it was already destined to die in the fire with the Japanese invaders.

Coming to this conclusion, Xie Yixiang was not only frightened, but also creepy. You must know that the forest where everyone is located is very extensive, and the vegetation is luxuriant, and it is uninhabited, and it is so widespread that it takes several days or even more than ten days to burn out and extinguish, just as Yan Sidao said, if it is really not even a rabbit that wants to run away.

However, what shocked her even more was that she had the heart to burn more than 500 innocent people to death, which can be described as ruthless and even hurtful. For a while, Xie Yixiang could only stare at her in horror, only to feel that this handsome little Taoist priest suddenly became extremely unfamiliar, and said incoherently: "You...... You...... They were all taken by the Japanese ...... They are all poor homeless people, all with injuries and illnesses, how can you ...... How can you ......?"

Unexpectedly, after Yizi finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the red light flashing in the dense fog, and continued to appreciate his masterpiece, not reasoning with Xie Yixiang at all. Yan Sidao, who was not far away, spit out a puff of smoke and said leisurely: "Why should Miss Xie San make a fuss? Since ancient times, when the two armies fought, there must have been casualties, even if Ling Zun was 'invincible' in the past, there is still a saying that 'kill a thousand enemies and damage 800 yourself', let alone deal with this gang of extremely vicious widows? hehe...... Therefore, if you want to exterminate the Japanese invaders, of course, you have to pay a price. ”

Hearing the words and make provocative remarks, Xie Yixiang's anger suddenly shifted to him, and he blurted out angrily: "Nonsense! You also know that this is a battle between the two armies, and those who have suffered losses on both sides should naturally be generals! Just like the entire 4,000-strong 'peace-Japanese coalition army,' which is now less than 500 people, what does it have to do with innocent people? As a general, his duty is to protect his family and the country, to protect the peace of the party, and to enable the people to live and work in peace and contentment and avoid the scourge of war. Now not only can we not protect the people here, but also caused them to wander all the way, and finally used them to lure the Japanese into the game, exchanging hundreds of innocent lives for victory, which is ...... This is simply putting the cart before the horse, and even losing all conscience and being inferior to beasts!"

Hearing this, Yan Sidao was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, as if he had heard a great joke. Immediately, he spat out a puff of dry smoke, shook his head and sighed: "It's a shame that you were born in a general, and you didn't even understand the most fundamental common sense? haha, I can't imagine that Xie Fengxuan has been spanning his life, and in the end he actually taught you such a third lady of the Xie family, which really makes people laugh and lose their big teeth-maybe, let me ask you, why did the sages of the past generations take 'respecting the old and loving the young' as their morality and ethics?"

This time, it was Xie Yixiang's turn to be stunned, and she didn't understand why Yan Sidao suddenly asked such a question. I only heard Yan Sidao already ask and answer himself, shook his head and said: "The six relatives are not in harmony, 'filial piety' is virtuous; the country is in chaos, and the 'loyal ministers' are modest." In the same way, if the old are worthy of respect, and the young are worthy of love, why should we advertise 'respecting the old and loving the young' as a moral character and a moral integrity?"

Xie Yixiang was inexplicable when she heard it, she didn't know what Yan Sidao was talking about, and was about to open her mouth to scold, but when she heard Yan Sidao's words, she turned around, and said: "As the so-called 'life is rare for seventy years', a person's life is averaged over seventy years, and the truly valuable years and months are only fifteen to thirty-five in a short period of twenty years - if you are too young, you are a waste, and if you are too old, you are a burden, and those who are fifteen to thirty-five years old are also the years required to join the army. This is the most basic requirement, and it has always been the case throughout the ages, and it has never changed. This means that only one out of every seven people in the world can be a soldier or a general, and if you remove half of the women, it is only one out of 14 people who can find a person who can serve in the army. On this basis, it is necessary to further eliminate those who are not virtuous, mentally incomplete, physically weak, and courageous, and in the end it is not easy to select a qualified sergeant from among 100 people, and this is not counting the cost of training and food for 'raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while'. ”

Speaking of this, Yan Sidao continued to take a puff of dry smoke, raised his voice and said: "Therefore, the first thing that a general should do is to cherish the sergeants under his command and treat them as his own. However, in the eyes of you, Miss Xie San, it is natural for the soldiers under your command to die on the battlefield, and you do not feel the slightest heartache; but after the death of a few irrelevant people, you have to cry and shout for an explanation for them? Let me ask you, who is the one who was born and died for us and fought for us this time, is it these sick and wounded people? Hmph, the dignified Xie Fengxuan's daughter actually regards a group of useless waste burdens as more important than the soldiers under her command, do you hear too much of Mr. Storyteller's nonsense, or do you read too much of the nonsense in the miscellaneous notes?"

Xie Yixiang was speechless when she said these words, although she knew that she was arguing with strong words, but she couldn't refute it. Only listened to Yan Sidao and continued: "Speaking of the 'Japanese Kou', it is the samurai and ronin of Dongying, who can cross the ocean to burn and kill looters in my Huaxia, and they are undoubtedly the elite among them, and they can be described as one in a thousand talents. The two sides fought for their lives, even if our soldiers exchanged ten lives for one of their lives, it would not be considered a loss, let alone a bunch of wasteful and burdensome lives in exchange, of course, the price was cheap and good, and the profit was not lost. Therefore, the head of the trail burned all over a radius of thirty miles, exchanging the lives of five hundred people for the lives of six or seven hundred widows, and this deal was a good deal, so as to minimize the cost to our side. ”

Xie Yixiang frowned when she heard this, and could only shake her head vigorously, arguing: "Then those green forest heroes led by Quan Chongtian, Lin Yixian, He Qimeng and Fan Shentong, in your words, are all good hands in the rivers and lakes of a thousand miles and one in a thousand miles.

She seemed to be questioning Yan Sidao when she said this, but her eyes fell on De Yizi. Who knew that Ichiko still ignored it, looking at the red light around and the sky above his head that was about to break, and there were words in his mouth, as if he was praying or calculating something. Listening to Yan Sidao, he took over the conversation again and replied: "It seems that Miss Xie San still doesn't understand, if you want to exterminate the Japanese invaders, of course, you have to pay a price! Our Sun Xin rejected General Sun, the "white-armored angry horse" of the three armies in the famous town, and it can be said that he was one out of a million or one out of ten million miles of generals, didn't he also obey your dispatch and went to Gu Yuncheng to die without hesitation? According to your logic, could it be that the common people could not die, the bandits and bandits could not die, and only the 4,000 lives of General Sun and the soldiers of the entire 'Pingyu Alliance' should die?"

As soon as the words fell, several sergeants behind couldn't help but praise: "Well said!" Xie Yixiang was silent, where did he dare to say anything more? After thinking about it, he said that this guy was a heinous person, not only had no moral integrity at all, but was also the most evil, despicable, and terrible 'demon king' in the world. As a descendant of the Ghost Valley, De Yizi often regards himself as a god, regards the world as a lowly ant, and is also a cold-blooded and ruthless person, so he can become the biggest opponent of Yan Sidao. It seems that these two people can work together to quell the rebellion of the Japanese and return peace to the borders of Jiangsu and Zhejiang and even the Central Plains, so why should they argue with them about what ethics, right and wrong?

Thinking of this, Xie Yixiang didn't pay attention to them anymore. At this time, the sky is gradually dawning, the sky is brewing a faint morning light, with the fog getting lighter and lighter, the heat of the forest fire is also better than before, in the flying grass and ashes, everyone's breathing is already a little difficult, can only use the sleeves to soak in water to cover their mouths and noses. Fortunately, Yan Sidao had already led people to remove all the grass and trees around the hill, and prepared a lot of water and dry food on the hill, so although everyone felt the heat, they were not injured by the flames.

It's a pity that according to the arrangement of the first son, the people named "Xuanwu" on the hill can only wait in the forest fire when this situation is, and they don't know what the battle situation on Gu Yuncheng's side is. Half an hour later, the first rays of morning light fell straight into the burning woods, and the fog in the forest finally vanished. As far as the eye can see, there are flames rising into the sky in all directions, stretching for more than 30 miles without seeing the edge, it is really a great fire, and its momentum is so great that it is the only one seen in Xie Yixiang's life.

At this moment, the son on the hill suddenly exhaled a long breath, and the original excitement in the gray-white pupils was gone, replaced by an indescribable loneliness. I only heard him say lightly: "The crowd of ants is already vulnerable, and the ashes are only extinguished between the raised hands, which can be described as extremely boring......" Saying, he turned his head and glanced at Xie Yixiang, and said proudly: "The Japanese in the forest are all wiped out, Gu Yuncheng has also been successfully broken, this battle has been decided, and the three Japanese forces of 'Zhongjo One Sword Flow', 'Jiahe Ninjutsu' and 'Kendo Small Art of War' on the boundary of Jiangsu and Zhejiang will no longer be able to become a climate from today on." After that, there will only be some such as cleaning up and cleaning up, and don't bother me again!"
