438: The Purpose of War

"This is the first time I have heard someone say that he is the title of a marquis and minister as relaxed as you."

Since being recruited by that mysterious lady and offered an offer to join the "Feng Family Army", Li Shu felt that his life plan for the first thirty-six years had an unpredictable derailment disaster. Especially after being rescued by Pei Ye, not only did his life derailment, but his three views were even shattered.

As he plunged into an unknown and collapsed future, no one knew what would happen ahead.

Fortunately, Li Shu spent 24 years traveling around various countries, with a broad range of experience, a strong ability to accept novel things, a strong curiosity, and a strong desire to explore. If Pei Ye was known to people other than Li Shu—for example, Duan Ganqi—maybe Duan Ganqi had begun to doubt himself, instead of giving Pei Ye a temporary seat like Li Shu, accepting good things while actively contacting unknown things.

"The scenery people see at the foot of the mountain and the scenery they see at the top of the mountain are always different."

After hearing this, Li Shu was stunned for a few breaths before smiling bitterly: "What do you mean by this - I stand at the foot of the mountain, in the deep mountains and forests, even if I can walk out, I have to make many detours. Even if I can go out, I will die of starvation and exhaustion. And if you stand on the top of the mountain, can your eyes see the way out?"

Pei Ye's fingers that turned his pen stiffened.

"You understand this sentence too extreme. I never feel that I can see a real way out. Every way is measured by countless people and then figured out with their feet. What I see with my eyes is nothing but what I have experienced, not the most suitable one. Such blind and arrogant confidence will make people annoyed. What I mean is - my strength stands on the top of the mountain instead of the vision."

Is there any difference between the two?

Li Shu turned his puzzled eyes on Pei Ye, hoping that she could solve her doubts.

Pei Ye scratched his cheek and said a truth that Li Shu might be photographed by villain.

"For example, an ordinary person can kill an adult with a sword, and after many years of learning, he can kill one person with a sword and ten steps. I - without considering emergencies, I can kill a hundred people with a step and ten steps. The person at the foot of the mountain was stepping on a corpse, and standing on the top of the mountain, I was covered with bones piled up by the enemy. Do you understand this? I don't have enough brains to get it together."

Li Shu: "..."

Pei Ye continued: "I have never underestimated anyone, including you in front of me. Even if your strength is indeed very weak, your brain is very useful. Although I have not deliberately concealed it, you can discover my secrets from the details, and even absorb them in a very short time and accept things that are completely beyond the knowledge. This is also a kind of wisdom. Otherwise, why is it you, not Qin Shao or Shen Sang?"

Li Shu suddenly raised his hand to hold his forehead, and his palm slid down to cover his eyes.

"I understand what your words, 'The most impeccable tactic is to kill all the enemies'."

If she gets angry, she will kill all Chaoxia's enemies, Chaoxia will indeed be saved.

It's indeed an impeccable tactic... What a f*ck!

(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

Li Shu said calmly: "You really shouldn't interfere in the affairs of Chaoxia and other countries, and even if you intervene, you shouldn't use such extraordinary means."

Before Pei Ye asked why, Li Shu took the initiative to give the answer.

"In your opinion, what is war for?"

Pei Ye frowned and said, "There are too many purposes of war. Some people actively launched wars to divert internal conflicts, some people launched troops to plunder external resources, and some people passively resisted the enemy's invasion to the battlefield... After all, it is all about solving the enemy-to-me conflict."

Li Shu's eyelids hopped twice.

For the first time, he looked at the person in front of him with a completely straight look.

The young man's food has improved recently, and his yellow and slightly sunken cheeks have flesh. He looks less depressed by weight loss and more youthfulness unique to young people - but Pei Ye's aura is different from Qin Shao and the others - when he gets along with her, even Li Shu always forgets her age and subconsciously thinks that she is a peer who can talk to equally, not a child.

"Do you think my participation will undermine fairness?"

Li Shu shook his head: "Not to mention whether it is fair or not, the struggles of all countries are all about their extremes."

No one stipulates that war cannot be done by means other than mortals. War is for victory. Who cares about what victory is based on?

"I agree with you. War is launched in various countries to solve existing hidden dangers. War is not the only way to solve hidden dangers, but it is definitely the fastest, efficient and useful means. You can indeed use those non-human means to achieve the feat of killing hundreds of people in one step and killing ten thousand people in one step. Although it can be exchanged for temporary peace, the existing problems have not been resolved, and the war will come back."

It is not to say that victory is considered victory, and the real victory is achieved when the war starts.

He also said: "If Yan Huoluo took Yan Huoluo as an example, the purpose of attacking Chaoxia was for gold and silver, for fertile land, for women, gold and silver could create a stronger tiger and wolf army. The grain produced by fertile land could feed more citizens, and strong soldiers and horses, and women could give birth to more newborns for them. These are all lacking in Yan Huoluo, so they would attack Chaoxia for these. If you assist Yan Huoluo to win the battle and annihilate Chaoxia's "Feng Family Army", the most wanted gold and silver, fertile land, and women did not have the hidden dangers, what would Yan Huoluo? Similarly, you helped Chaoxia win, but the factional struggle between the court and the various places did not solve any problem. Chaoxia would still destroy the country in the end, and it would be destroyed by one's own hands."

To sum up, force can solve the enemy but cannot solve the contradiction.

"If you just want all officials to buy your cuckold, you don't have to go this way, you will kill more innocent people."

Li Shu recognized the inevitable sacrifices in the war between the two countries, but he did not agree with meaningless casualties.

This is his principle.

Because of the principle, he would risk spreading the news that the "Feng Family Army" was deceived and sent troops to Bancheng, and would also persuade Pei Ye to give up for this.

"Mr.'s words make people suddenly understand. Indeed, only by completely resolving the contradictions can the people achieve true peace." Pei Ye smiled very well, "But Mr. Sir is not a prophet and a god. How do you know that I can't do two-pronged approach?"

Although importantly,

"... Besides, it is normal that when manpower is poor, it is not perfect. But..." Pei Ye paused, his expression was unprecedentedly firm, his eyes as hot as the scorching summer sun, making people dare not look directly at it, "Why can't you trust? I believe that others can make up for the rest and all the unhappiness in the circle?"

Li Shu was stunned.

Pei Ye pretended to be disappointed: "It seems that Mr. I have never trusted me in my subconscious mind, but I believe that Mr. I believe that Mr. I have united with other like-minded people and worked together to make a deformed world. I see hope in you."

Li Shu was sitting in place in distracted.
