C435 reversal of events (1/2)
What is a nation? What is a country? This was a phrase that countless people called a lousy name, but not many people could truly feel the warmth of these two words.
It was a truth that would never break even in times of trouble. Only when a nation or nation was facing true enemy soldiers and faced with a common disaster could they feel the warmth of these two words.
We are of the same species, we share the same values and interests. Although we fight and quarrel all the time, when the foreign invaders invade, we will still be burdened by these people.
Are there such soldiers and armies in this world? In all of China's thousands of years of history, only the Yue Army did not break down their houses and starve to death. Other than that, which army loved their people so much?
Letting people eat food while eating weeds and gnawing on tree bark – who would believe such a thing if it were to be known?
Chang Sanhao subconsciously did not believe it. ”Liars, they're lying... Be careful that Xiao Letian doesn't take revenge! ”These idiots …”
The despicable will never experience the soul of the noble, and the rats in the sewers will never see the beauty of the Soaring Eagle. What made Chang Sanhao and the others even more speechless was that, at that moment, all the people on the street actually believed the old shopkeeper's' lie '.
With a boom, no one on the street was able to stand still. Everyone kneeled on the ground and cried out, ”We were wrong …” We're really wrong, we're not human... ”Sob, sob, sob …”
”No one in this world has ever truly treated us common people as human beings. There are only the Prime Minister and only the new army …”
The crowd could not hold back their sobs. They knelt on the ground and choked with sobs. In this era where the hearts of the people were simple and honest, if you treated the people well, they would definitely reward you.
”Don't embarrass yourselves anymore, you've wasted our military rations. I, your father, will make up for it with my broken family …” ”My family would rather eat wild vegetables all our lives to protect our new army. Without them, we would be slaves to anyone …”
The mood at the scene immediately changed. Everyone turned from rice snatching to contributing military rations, causing even Boss Mi to be dumbstruck. He quickly shouted, ”Rice and more, I still have some food stored outside the city …” ”As long as we can stay together, the crisis will definitely pass …”
”I, Fatty Mi, swear here that if I dare to raise the price, I'll lose my ass in front of my son!”
However, they never would have thought that the people would be so stubborn. They would only say one thing, ”If you do wrong, you have to change. If you waste something, you have to compensate …” The heavens are watching, you can't get wrong on top of that! ”
This scene was too touching, the old shopkeeper and the other riders couldn't help but cry. They all thought back to what Xiao Letian had said in their lessons before.
”The common people are not stone-hearted, they are not greedy for small gains and forget about righteousness. The key is whether or not we can achieve our own goals! ”The eyes of the commoners are bright as snow. Who would be able to tell just by looking at him …”
”As long as you can truly move them, as long as you can move the softest place in their hearts, the kindness of the people will be repaid to you in a way that you can never imagine …”
Today, the living reality was right in front of the soldiers. They had personally witnessed the crowd moving away like ants to bring back the rations they had hidden in the forest. The waiters of the rice shop had blocked the entrance but were unable to withstand the people.
Boss Mi was crying so hard that tears could be seen from his eyes. Oh my god! I don't want to make money, okay? I can't even accept money? I can't even give you rice for free? ”
”I, your father, will be an unscrupulous businessman for the rest of my life. I will cut off all descendants …”
This was enough to make the Manager Fan famous throughout history. However, all the credit belonged to Xiao Letian, and the only name that everyone was thinking of right now was their Prime Minister.
The Ryukyu was very lucky to have a new army! The citizens of Ryukyu were extremely fortunate to have such a person! With Xiao Letian in East Asia, he was even more fortunate!
Sun Ximei and the others had already escaped, and the shock they received today would never be forgotten. They disguised themselves as commoners as they walked on the streets, escaping towards their hiding spots deep in the mountains.
”sib, think of something. My heart is in chaos, I don't understand what's going on today …” Chang Sanhao sat on a rock and blew at the sea breeze, and said with lingering fear.
”What's your idea?” ”If you want me to say it, then run. The boat we're hiding in the cave should be of use. As long as we can get out of the French encirclement and come across any merchant ship on the sea, we can go home …” Stubborn donkey's heart was already beating a drum.
On the surface, the group of spies from the Qing Dynasty all took Chang Sanhao as their manager, but in truth, everyone was willing to listen to Sun Ximei. This clever woman, stared at the Shouli City with flickering eyes, and sighed.
”Go?” Can you walk? If we didn't meet up with that mysterious person earlier, it would have been fine … ”Now that the new mission has been assigned, I'm afraid we'll be caught when we get home …”
