What about Mr. Faint?

Before the scribes in green shirts exposed the lonely bottom line, the army from the south arrived first.Their arrival was expected, but such a speed was beyond Gu's expectation.But for other people in the camp, such a rapid march is a very common thing.Gu watched them put on their armor and put on their saddles with calm faces, watched them wipe their weapons, and left the camp without looking back.Looking at these back figures in Gu's arms, little Ah Gu let out a babbling sound, very cute. "What are you thinking?" The green-clothed scribe was always elusive. He looked sideways. He stood on the other side of the tent with his robe on. He didn't know how long he had been there. He doesn't need a lonely answer, "I also thought about contributing to the country." The subtext is that he is not loyal to the country now. "Of course not," seeing through Gu's thoughts, "Now, I'm just loyal to this country." What's the difference?There are still some: "You are upright." "It's a compliment." He opened his hands, looking like he wanted to hug Ah Gu.Of course Gu will not let go, this is Gu's bone, how can I give it to him.The scribe didn't feel embarrassed by the cold reception, he always had a thick skin: "It was not an accident to meet the general, but it was indeed an accident when I strayed into the place where the two armies were fighting for the first time. The general rescued me from the barbarians, Naturally, I want to repay my kindness, after all, my life is very expensive." What he said seemed to be upside-down and weird, but there was a lot of information hidden in it.Looking at him alone, there seemed to be the sound of eagles in the distance, but it was blocked by the neighing of horseshoes and the clanging of drums.The ground trembled faintly, and even the stones at his feet seemed to be unable to hold back, jumping around anxiously.Little Agu babbling and gesticulating, like a little general pointing the country. "Cao Min always felt that His Majesty doesn't know suffering, doesn't care about sentient beings, doesn't understand people's opinions, and doesn't know the seriousness." If he was still an emperor alone, he would definitely be dragged out and executed. "Now, the grass people don't think so. It's really wrong to say that, Your Majesty." He smiled as if facing his beloved woman: "Your Majesty, you should close your eyes and ears and pretend to be a king." , not aware of the difficulties of the people, not aware of the direction of the world. Sitting in that position, His Majesty is like a child who is still breastfeeding, thinking about how happy he is. The general may think that His Majesty wants to cut the mess quickly. But the grass-roots people feel that His Majesty is just venting his anger." His words were harsh, but they were biased, and there was no mistake: "Sir likes you, but you are not blind." "Probably because after being blind once, you are more cautious." "He still had the same calm smile on his face, accompanied by the roar of killing in the distance, "If it falls on your Majesty, your reputation will be lost. If the grassroots are not smarter, future generations will only Mr. Zhi is blind, Mr. I don’t know has eyesight.” “Did Gu provoke you recently?” Why is he so angry. "You didn't," he turned around and looked in the direction of the battlefield with Gu, "but your dog provoked me."...he was probably... talking about the general...this is rare, what did the general do to make him even The general scolded in together: "That seems to be your master." After saying this, he sneered: "Caomin doesn't have such a big face." , "It can make the general and His Majesty such a noble man, talk to the untouchables over and over again. It's such an honor to be with the two of you." From grassroots to untouchables, it can be seen how angry he is: "Lonely and Guess, the general asked you not to provoke Gu again?" If there is anything that dislikes him, it is probably that this person is too sharp and can always easily step on Gu's pain, "And I advise you to have a good relationship with Gu. Talk?" His tone became even more strange: "Your Majesty—wise and powerful." If it was changed to Gu, the general told Gu that he should stay away from him, and Gu was also angry: "Although Gu can't replace the general, for the past What I did can't make up for it. But if it can make you stop being so angry, I apologize to you: I'm sorry." These words are said sincerely, without the intention of irony.He could hear it, so his tone was no longer weird and could be described: "Your Majesty, is this a retreat?" "No, it's just that you are right every time, and there is no excuse." As I said, I don’t know the importance of the world, and I think that only one person suffers in this world. But I never thought that Gu’s reckless actions, after all, are these innocent people who suffer. They have never owed Gu, so where is Gu’s dissatisfaction? He stood alone in front of the main tent for a long time, until the air was filled with bloody smell, and when the little Agu started to feel a little restless because of the unchanging scenery, he raised his hand again: "Let me hold the little prince , don’t you want to go to the front and take a look.” Looking at the direction of the sound of fighting, “It’s not that I’m soft-hearted, but you really should go and take a look, those people who are working hard for you. You know this world, It's definitely not what you imagined, you can let it go easily." With the thorns on his body, he said with a bit of kindness, "Thank you." He didn't reply, just turned around and entered the tent with Xiao Agu in his arms.Without the little Ah Gu in his arms, he walked towards the battlefield alone.It's just that the closer you get, the heavier your steps are, and the desire to get closer disappears with the more intense blood and screams.Even with eyes closed, one could feel the sadness and chill coming from a distance.It didn't seem like the coldness felt alone in the palace, but more like unwillingness, grief, and anger that couldn't come back.No grudges, no distortions, none of the familiar hatred and regret.Standing at the same place, the footsteps seem to weigh a thousand catties. Obviously, you only need to go a hundred steps to the left to reach the horse pen, and you can leave the camp if you move forward.But unfortunately, I can't move forward.

Those heavy feelings, those gloomy murderous intentions, hovering in the wind, with the sound of horseshoes gradually disappearing, and the fighting that dissipated, made people feel chilly all over.The burning candles in the general's tent all night, the day-to-day planning of the lieutenants and counselors, the repetitive and boring military exercises every day, the back view when leading the troops to leave in the morning.

In a trance, it turned into casualties and deaths written in one or two lines of pen and ink on the memorial to the imperial case. With a few ink strokes, it was a rise and fall.Gu has never thought that those few lines of pen and ink are the hardships and blood and tears of many people.But if this is the case, why have the expeditionary forces continued to travel and fight in all directions for a hundred years?Under the expansion of the territory, how many people no longer have brothers and fathers, how many women's sweethearts cannot be returned, and how many people are buried in other places.

There are a lot of things tumbling in my mind, but it seems to be just a blank.

Standing there alone, until the voices of people surged in the distance.The leader is the general leading the horse, his black clothes are not damaged, but Gu can see the different shades of color on his clothes.That was blood that had already clotted, whether it was the general's own or the enemy's, it meant that he had personally fought.

Seeing Gu, the lieutenant who was talking to the general was taken aback for a moment, he seemed to turn his head to look at the general, then raised his hand, turned around and took the man to leave.The general led the horse to the lonely, crossed the road with others, and walked towards the lonely step by step. The people behind him all became his background.

Just to set off his tall and mighty.

"What's the matter?" The general drew his horse closer, looking at Gu with gentle eyes as before, "Are you waiting for me?"

He stepped forward to lead the horse for the general, grabbed his palm with the other hand, and walked with him: "Why is there a war?"

Hearing Gu's question, the general suddenly smiled: "Your Majesty, are you thinking about life?" His palm wrapped around Gu's hand, warm and reassuring, "It depends on why you are fighting. If it is for righteousness , is to seek peace in the world. If it is for Xiaojia, it is to seek eternal life."

Shaking my head, I don't understand.

"Your Majesty fought in the south on behalf of His Majesty, in order to stabilize His Majesty's country. On the other hand, I conquered the Northern Wilderness on behalf of Your Majesty, in order to expand the territory and keep your blood alive."

He changed his way of explanation: "As for these common people, Your Majesty is free to join the army. The imperial court will give the soldiers ten taels of silver to supplement their families, and half of the silver will be used in the next month. If the war resumes, there will be another subsidy."

He looked at Gu: "If unfortunately killed in battle, his family members will have 30 taels of compensation, and they will be registered in the household registration. If they get meritorious service in the future, it can be used as a reference. It's just that the imperial examination is no longer valid, but so are the children of military families. You should be taken care of." I don't know what to think of, and I shook my head.

"Your Majesty, that's all they ask for."

"Wouldn't it be better if there were no more conquests in the world?" Isn't it obvious that there will be no casualties if there is no war?

"Then who will sit in the supreme position?" The general asked back, and asked Gu, "Who is the one who is truly qualified to command the world, who is the one who will do good to the people in the world? Who is the one who can convince others?" Man, who is the one who takes care of the old minister in every possible way?" He walked into the stables holding his lonely hand, "How will Your Majesty know?"

"Your Majesty, do you know the real reason why the expeditionary force has not been banned for so many years?"

Looking at the tiredness on the general's face, Gu suddenly remembered the poems that Mr. Gu recited to Gu while holding the scrolled book of sages in his hand a long time ago.

Jiangshan couldn't keep it, but carried Shengge away.Drunk leaning on jade and scratching his head, he knew the sorrow of travel. ("Bodhisattva Man" Zhang Qianyuan)

At night, holding a pen alone, he wrote ink-colored handwriting on the paper stroke by stroke.

...In the First World War, 690 people were injured, and 1 people died...

One stroke at a time, what is written is not the letter to the Son of Heaven, but the innocent lives on this land of Nuoda.

The weight of the country, so it is.
