Chapter 178 The Sun Comes Out(2/2)
Prince Nancheng suddenly became a little excited: "Since the plundering of the village, so many people have died, so many innocent people have been killed without resistance..."
Speaking of this, the prince of Nancheng began to roar: "The war between the two countries has nothing to do with the people. Every time I eat now, I will think about it. These were taken from other people's hands. Maybe this bowl of rice can do it."
If it kills a person, I can’t eat it at all!”
Even when he went to bed every night, Prince Nancheng would have nightmares. In his dreams, there were countless people who were not well fed or clothed, and there were innocent children walking barefoot in the snow, holding an empty bowl in their hands, feeling resentful.
Stare at him.
Shen Bi frowned: "Your Majesty, these are the benevolence of women. No one can have blood on their hands before ascending to the throne."
Shen Bi has never regretted this. In war, there must be sacrifices, and these casualties are nothing at all.
What chilled the prince of Nancheng the most was Shen Bi's indifferent attitude. He didn't take these lives seriously at all.
Maybe it's not as important as the straw.
The Shen Bi who used to be well-behaved, well-educated, and loved small animals is not the same person as the current Shen Bi who is decisive, cold-blooded, and full of plunder and war!
Prince Nancheng regretted it more than once. Perhaps he should not have stayed there that year, so that he would not have met Shen Bi.
Shen Bi looked at him with a cold look and said with a dull expression: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this? Do you blame me?"
If he hadn't nodded in agreement, this matter wouldn't have been accomplished by one person!
Prince Nancheng shook his head: "I don't blame you, I just trust you so much that I lose myself and listen to your words everywhere, which is why I am like this now."
Hearing what the Prince of Nancheng said, Shen Bi became a little annoyed: "Your Majesty, victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists. Why do you have to dwell on one thing?"
"Now that troops from the south are approaching the city, we only have one month of rice left. My men will soon be unable to afford food. How can I remain calm?"
He couldn't calm down at all.
Shen Bi lowered his head and gazed for a moment, then suddenly said: "There is nothing we can do. There are about a dozen villages and five or six small towns around here. Since there is a war, why can the people in the south support the people in the south and Dongling?
But not?"
After she finished speaking, Prince Nancheng stared at her as if he didn't recognize her at all.
It's terrible, simply terrible.
"The weather at the border has been very cold in the past two years, and there hasn't been much harvest at all. Everyone has tightened their belts. How can there be any extra food to supply us?"
After saying this, Prince Nancheng grabbed Shen Bi's arm with a warning look on his face: "I have done enough evil, I won't allow you to mess around!"
Shen Bi suddenly sneered when he heard this: "Would that prince rather watch hundreds of thousands of troops starve to death, and then wait for the soldiers from the south to plunder all the way, causing more casualties?"
The prince of Nancheng, who was choked with words, did not speak for a long time and stared at Shen Bi seriously.
"We are fighting to better protect the people who live and work in peace and contentment. This is a fierce battle. The prince is merciful, but the same cannot be said for the soldiers in Nanduan." Shen Bi changed the topic and said: "What's more, Nanduan is angry this time.
Come on, if the prince doesn’t make a decision as soon as possible, once the city gate is breached, those people in the south will definitely kill the people of Dongling!"
Prince Nancheng took two steps back. How could she say such cruel words so calmly?
"Isn't it worth sacrificing the interests of a small number of people in exchange for the safety of more people's lives?" Shen Bi asked rhetorically.
She has told the prince of Nancheng numerous times that he does not want to be kind to women, and he only has one word for treating his soldiers, strict!
But every time Prince Nancheng would break the precept.
"Maybe I made a mistake this time, but don't forget, we still have a secret weapon." Shen Bi took a deep breath and stepped forward to calm the prince of Nancheng: "The secret weapon in the warehouse is enough to repel us.
Soldiers at the southern end, we can make up for the common people after the war is over."
These words touched the heart of Prince Nancheng, and he nodded feebly to express his agreement.
"But what are the people outside saying now?" Prince Nancheng's face burned when he thought of this.
Shen Bi said: "You are the king here, and they all listen to you. If anyone disobeys or incites military morale, he will be killed without mercy!"
