Chapter 1578 Why Fight (Page 1/1)

The lecture hall was silent, and countless eyes looked at Sun Ce, both curious and puzzled.

Why fight? This question sounds simple, but when you think about it, it seems not that simple. Not only are these uneducated warriors unable to explain it clearly, but even Zhang Hong, Zhou Yu and others on the side were thinking.

"Why fight? It's very simple to say that it's simple. Could the simplest reason be that we have to fight. We want to survive, but some people take our lives and don't let us live. They either want to seize our land, our property, or do nothing, but they are bloodthirsty and easy to kill. Can we reason with such people, such beasts and animals?"

"No!" A student blushed when he thought of something, raised his fists and shouted: "There is no reason to talk to animals. He can only pick up his knife and fight them."

"Yes, that's right, just reasoning is useless, only killing is useful." Another student replied loudly.

"If you are right, just do it!" More students shouted indignation.

Sun Ce nodded and signaled to Jingjing again. Nanyang was close to Luoyang. These students were either from Luoyang, from Guanzhong, Yingchuan and other places. They were very harmful to Dong Zhuo's subordinates. Some of them came from Yellow Turbans, which may not be related to Dong Zhuo, but they have a deep hatred for the court and government. Speaking of hatred, they may not be able to finish talking about it for three days and three nights.

"Yes, whoever wants our lives will take his life first. The sword in hand will never stop. Fighting for survival is the easiest answer and the most helpless answer. So, when no one wants to kill us and steal us, should we still fight?"

Everyone was silent and looked at each other. After a while, someone shouted again: "Of course, we can't read the scriptures and become officials. If we want to make a fortune, we have to work hard. Instead of being poor for the rest of our lives, it is better to sacrifice our lives. Maybe we have good luck and can win a job."

"Yes, yes, we are lucky. When we meet a general, we will work hard for a few more years and earn a captain or a captain. Even if we retire from the army and return home, we can be a county captain and other things. "

Everyone burst into laughter again, and they were all smiling. Not long ago, Sun Ce had just announced a policy that those who were disabled due to injuries, or who were tired of fighting for a long time, and wanted to go home to live a stable life, but they could be awarded the corresponding official positions according to their positions and merits in the army. Those who were poor could be a regular official, a pavilion chief, and a good one could be a county lieutenant. If they retired from the middle and senior military positions such as school lieutenants, or even a county lieutenant, they could even become a county lieutenant. They would be 2,000 stone high-ranking officials. For these people with low origins, this was simply unimaginable and could be called a glorious ancestor.

Sun Ce waved his hand with a smile. "That's right, even if no one threatens us, we can accumulate military merit through battle, be named marquis and generals, glorify the ancestors, and be named wife and sons. Whether it is to survive or make meritorious contributions, this is all for the individual and for the family, which can be regarded as the first level, and can be called yourself."

Sun Ce raised a finger and then raised a second one. "So, if no one threatens us and does not worry about career, should we still fight? For example, if you become a lieutenant, a general, or even a marquis, can you take off your armor and return to your fields?"

Everyone looked at each other. This question was too far away for them, and no one had ever thought of it.

Sun Ce paused for a moment, giving everyone a time to think, and then turned to look at Zhou Yu, Huang Zhong and others. "For example, Zhou Gongjin, now he is the General of Zhennan and Shuhou, and has married a talented woman like Cai. Shouldn't he be Ma Wanshan and retire with peace of mind? For example, Huang Hansheng, who was appointed as the General of the Central Army and was named Guannei Marquis, could he retire? Could it be that the only reason why they did not retire was to become a bigger official and a higher title?"

Everyone looked at Zhou Yu, Huang Zhong and others in one go. Sun Ce smiled and said, "Gongjin, tell me, since you have been granted the title of marquis and generals, why continue to fight?"

Xinpi and Xun You looked at each other and were a little uneasy. Sun Ce raised this question in public and appointed Zhou Yu to answer. Could it be that there is something to say?

"Yeah, thank you General." Zhou Yu stepped out of the line and said slowly: "The reason why we are in love with the tide is just to follow the general to fight the world, build peace, and prosper. As for the promotion of the title, let it go, and those who come will not refuse, and those who go will not pursue. Unrighteousness will be rich and honorable, and to me, it is like a cloud of righteousness. Wherever righteousness is, even if there are thousands of people, I will go."

"Well said." Sun Ce clapped his hands and applauded. "You guys, General Zhou's words are exactly the second level I want to talk about: righteousness. What is righteousness? It is what we should do. As a warrior, what should we do in the face of chaos in the world?"

A graduate raised his fist and shouted: "By violence, stop war with war, and pacify the world."

Sun Ce nodded repeatedly and applauded again. "Well, it is similar to what General Zhou said. We should applaud him and General Zhou."

The graduate laughed and applauded all the time. The graduate was a little embarrassed and proud. Being able to compare with Zhou Yu was enough to make him proud for a while. The applause was thunderous, Zhou Yu smiled and retreated, his face calm, like the spring breeze. Xun You and Xin Pi breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart that had just raised their throats was finally relieved. No matter what Sun Ce intended, Zhou Yu had no problem with his response. They exchanged glances, smiled knowingly, and raised their hands to pat them twice.

Sun Ce and others gave a little applause, then raised their third finger. Everyone calmed down again, raised their ears, and listened to Sun Ce's third level. Even Zhang Hong and others were a little curious, not knowing what Sun Ce wanted to say. The second level was already righteous, and to pacify the world. Since the world was peaceful, do we still need to fight? Is it because the world is safe and forgetting to fight will be in danger? If this is the case, it would be good. Although it was different, it was unique and would never leave the right path. But if it was a military force and devoted to pioneering all directions, it would be troublesome. In fact, Sun Ce had already revealed such signs. He asked Cai Yan to study the writings of the West and Western Regions, and there was a possibility of preparing for the conquest. Although this idea seemed too far away, Sun Ce's far-sighted nature could not say that there was no possibility at all.

"The world is peaceful, and you are promoted to the title. Can you put your horse on the Nanshan Mountain and return to the field?" Sun Ce held up three fingers and looked around. Seeing that his wife could answer, he turned to Zhou Yu and others again, smiling. "You are all heroes, who can give me an answer?"

Zhang Hong and others were speechless. This was a question you asked yourself. Who can answer it except yourself? No matter how well you said it, if you said it was no, then it was no. But then again, although the question was raised by Sun Ce, Sun Ce was not a nonsense and pretended to be mysterious. His move obviously had other profound meanings. The first question asked the graduates of the martial arts lecture hall, because most of the graduates of the martial arts lecture hall were from humble backgrounds and had to fight for survival. The second question asked Zhou Yu, because Zhou Yu had great ambitions and wanted to fight for the world, the third question was naturally one step higher than the second question. It seemed meaningless to ask others, and only a few scholars could answer it.

But how do you answer this? Zhang Hong turned around and looked at Guo Jia, Guo Jia shook his head and shrugged his shoulders. Zhang Hong looked at Xinpi, Xun You, and Xinpi also felt that it was difficult, and there was no suitable answer. Xun You was silent, frowned slightly, and did not move. Seeing Zhang Hong look over, he was stunned for a moment, he hesitated a little, then blinked his eyes and shook his head.

At this time, Cai Yan suddenly said oh, thinking about something, and was about to speak, but he felt something was wrong, so he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands.
