God on Campus Novel - Chapter 870
Chapter 870 Causes And Consequences (1)
Wang Menglin only smiled miserably at Lan Xing’s question.
It was somewhat bitter and self-deprecating.
“I know my thoughts are wrong, but I don’t want to make the choice I have to make.”
Wang Menglin said.
“I am a human, not a machine. I have my feelings, my selfishness …”
Selfishness is something that everyone can have. To be able to openly admit selfishness, shouldn’t it be a compliment but a depreciation?
On the contrary, shouldn’t those who pretend to be generous and selfless on the surface, but are selfish to the point of dying in their hearts, be spurned?
Therefore, the word selfish shouldn’t carry such a strong derogatory meaning …
Lan Xing bit his lip and didn’t say anything.
Wang Menglin said to herself, “What is there to be reckless about? I don’t want to sacrifice the people I miss for this kind of ending that I don’t want to see.”
Lan Xing frowned and said, “My Big Senior Brother is in danger now?”
Wang Menglin nodded. You You said, “His fame is too great. Ever since he arrived at someone else’s territory, those people have attached great importance to him. They thought that we should keep him here completely no matter what, so as to reduce our overall strength. Therefore, there has been no news since he left China.”
Lan Xing You You said, “But if my senior brother goes, it will be the same result, right?”
Wang Menglin didn’t hide anything. He slowly said, “After all, they went to other people’s territory on their own, Of course, we can’t help him in any way on our side, “Yes, there are naturally many dangers. It’s the same as the people outside sending people with abilities to my side. If our realm is not high enough, you still dare to easily step out of our realm. Of course, you will have to stay here forever. But even if your realm is very high, you will not have to face one or two opponents. Instead, you will have to face experts sent by someone else with the strength of a country.”
This was probably the reason why the capable would not casually go abroad.
Lan Xing clenched his fists and said, “You want to tell my senior brother about this through me?”
“There are quite a few people who know where Changqing is going.” Wang Menglin You You said, “But like Night watchman, those with official backgrounds have received orders from the higher-ups that they can’t tell Su Ye about this. And now, I’m telling you that you don’t belong to the Night watchman or any other organization. If you want to tell Su Ye, I won’t violate the order.”
“But …”
Lan Xing had just said such a word, but he couldn’t say anything else.
Originally, she wanted to question Wang Menglin. She clearly knew that she had told Su Ye such a thing, but didn’t she also put Su Ye in danger?
After all, Lan Xing didn’t know what kind of level Su Ye’s strength was. He just felt that if someone stronger than Su Ye died outside, wouldn’t Su Ye be in danger of not coming back?
But on second thought, Su Youguo was their master. If it was really as Wang Menglin had said, then as a disciple, could it be that there was no way he wouldn’t go if he was in danger?
What kind of talk about retribution was simply bullshit. If anyone believed this, they would have to be beaten up by him. Anyway, those who believed this sentence would not call back, right?
Confucius, revenge is not a gentleman, if the good for the bad, how to repay the good?
If Master had died outside, why would he boast of being a son and daughter of Jianghu if he didn’t collect the corpse and avenge himself?
Moreover, Su Youguo was Su Ye’s grandfather!
Thinking of this, Lan Xing was naturally unable to say a word. After all, because of her current situation, she had a reason to go, let alone Su Ye?
Even though he thought of Su Youguo as his master, it was all because of Lan Xing’s self-affection.
But being self-affectionate would never be hypocrisy!
So, Lan Xing gritted his teeth and said, “I want to know the cause and effect of this matter! Why did my master go abroad? And how did he die?”
Wang Menglin sighed softly and did not refuse. She explained everything she knew in detail.
A long, long time ago, perhaps not too long ago.
For those who didn’t dare to slack off and forget, it was like yesterday.
But for some people who are not grateful, that is too long, long enough to make these people complain about what they said: how many centuries ago was that? Don’t keep emphasizing such a shitty thing, and listen to it irritatedly!
In that era of flames of war, Su Youguo led his troops to guard a certain city.
There were less than a thousand troops to defend against the tens of thousands of bandits.
Victory or defeat had already been decided from the very beginning.
Many people didn’t understand why they had to fight a battle that clearly didn’t have a chance of winning. He knew that he would lose his life, but he still did it? Isn’t that stupid?
Whether it was the past or the present, there weren’t many people who understood.
That was why Su Youguo did not have any reinforcements back then. With his appearance as a lone army, he did not retreat when facing tens of thousands of bandits, who would inevitably continue to rise in number.
For some generals, they were disdainful of winning battles.
The so-called war strategy, if one could defeat a soldier without fighting, it would definitely greatly increase their morale, and even directly affect the morale of the enemy’s other troops. Under this situation, what could be obtained would be extremely beneficial to other battles.
The narrow-minded ones naturally only saw the gains and losses of one city and one place. However, as generals, they naturally had to know that the victory of a war was related to many factors. It was not just who died or where they occupied that could be said to be victorious.
Therefore, those bandits weren’t willing to fight directly against Su Youguo’s thousand people. After all, winning was a win, but if he still suffered losses, then this battle had no meaning other than occupying this city.
Therefore, those methods of persuading surrender before the start of the war, if you look at the history of thousands of years of war in China, you will find that this path has never been absent.
Although Su Youguo was a capable person, his weapons weren’t that advanced at that time, the main point was that there were many enemies.
Even if it was Su Ye, back then, with only a thousand people, it was impossible to say that he could turn the tide of the enemy’s tens of thousands of battles.
But since Su Youguo knew that he would lose, he still brought people to defend the city.
War, it’s not a fight. If we lose, we’ll lose our lives.
How could he possibly accept any persuasion to surrender if he had already put aside his life and death?
At that time, the leaders of those bandits were called Liangsuke Masaki. They could be said to be proficient in China’s art of war, and they were also highly skilled and talented.
After knowing that the person leading the troops to defend the city was Su Youguo, and that other than Su Youguo, they weren’t any experts, they put forward a proposal to compete with Su Youguo.
Of course, the wager of victory and defeat was not that Liangsuke Masaki would withdraw his troops if he lost.
If that was the case, then it would be too ridiculous.
It was not like he was the emperor of the feudal era, so he naturally couldn’t gamble on victory.
