My clone is on the other side of the starry sky

Chapter 7 It’s okay if you don’t get scared
"Brother Lu, how are we going to fight tomorrow?" After leaving the commander's tent, Yang Chong walked side by side with Lu Xuan.

Where power is involved, grouping is inevitable. The Twelve Capitals are all in power among the rebels in Sanyang County, so they naturally want to unite with each other.

Of course, Lu Xuan was no exception. Yang Chong and Lu Xuan had a good relationship. When Lu Xuan joined the Guiyi Sect, Yang Chong was the one who introduced him.

And Lu Xuan's rise all the way to the position of the capital was all achieved through hard work. Yang Chong was a bold and strong man. What he admired the most was a man with real ability like Lu Xuan. Both parties were willing to make friends, and along the way, The two of them always fight together, and now that the rebels are fighting a real siege for the first time, they naturally need to be at peace with each other.

"Protect yourself first, and the rest will act according to the opportunity." Lu Xuan looked back at the commander, and then said: "According to this method of fighting, even if the Qing Qi of the city guard is broken, it will not be easy to fight."

"What Brother Lu said is obviously correct. Then Guo Chang...isn't this aimed at Brother Lu?" Yang Chong was angry. Everyone could think of the question Lu Xuan just said. Guo Chang was obviously trying to suppress Lu Xuan.

"That's not entirely true. There are too many people eating in this camp." Lu Xuan shook his head. There must be some suppression. Such things like shocking the master with great achievements are taboo everywhere, but this is not the main problem. These tens of thousands The rebel army sounds huge, but it also has tens of thousands of mouths.

At first, it was okay because they could grab all the way, but now there are not many places to grab, and problems began to arise. Guo Chang was obviously aware of this and wanted to use this battle to lose some people.

So when Lu Xuan raised this question, Lu Xuan wanted to destroy the city, while Guo Chang wanted to take this opportunity to eliminate some... burdens!
"This..." Yang Chong looked at Lu Xuan in shock. He obviously understood what Lu Xuan meant. Anger gradually filled his eyes. He immediately turned around and said, "I'll go find him!"

As he said this, he was about to go back to the commander's tent, but was grabbed by Lu Xuan.

"It's useless." Lu Xuan saw that Yang Chong still looked like he was going to fight: "The military order has been issued. Even if he wants to change it, he can't change it. This will only damage the military's prestige and morale. If we look for him now, we will still suffer. Any beating is light."

"Let brothers die like this!?" Yang Chong said unwillingly.

Among all the rebels, he is the one who hopes most for the Guiyi Sect to succeed.

Before joining the rebel army, he was an ordinary farmer, working diligently, and the trajectory of his life seemed to be set. He worked, married, and raised a family until he died of old age.

The lives of most people at the bottom follow this trajectory.

However, this trajectory has continued to change over the years.

What they are facing are increasingly heavy taxes. The pressure of life is like mountains one after another pressing on people's shoulders, making them breathless. They don't understand why this is so, and they can only work harder to survive under the heavy taxes and miscellaneous taxes. live.

However, even though he had tried his best to maintain this poor livelihood, he still went hungry for most of the year. At this point, Yang Chong never thought of rebelling.

But people who are so humble that they are content as long as they live are the most bullied in this world. His father just couldn't help but ask more questions last year when the court raised taxes because he wanted to inherit the cultural heritage and build a sacred monument of Confucianism and Taoism. One sentence: How do we live?
Originally, what does the inheritance of literature and education have to do with them?Why should they use their little food to feed those people who exist in legends to them?

With just such a sentence, the officials directly killed him with a knife on the grounds of instigating the people to cause chaos.

At that time, Yang Chong was angry and afraid. Even now, he still doesn't understand why this world is going wrong.
From that time on, I no longer had the slightest bit of loyalty to Da Gan, but only outright hatred. But the hatred of the common people, not to mention Da Gan, but also to the officials of Sanyang County, was like an ant.

He wanted revenge, but facing that superior official, even meeting him was a luxury, let alone revenge.

It was also during this time that the Guiyi Sect began to prepare for the uprising. For Yang Chong, the emergence of the Guiyi Sect was like a beam of light in the dark night. It might be nihilistic, but it was the only hope he could see.

He joined the Guiyi Sect as soon as the uprising began. He may not be the most powerful among the rebels, but when he encounters officers and soldiers, he is the most ferocious in killing them.

He may have more respect for Heavenly Master Zhang Yuqing than Zhang Yuqing's disciples, so when encountering something that may harm the Guiyi Sect, his reaction is also the most intense.

"What we can control are our brothers. If you go now, believe it or not, you won't be able to control your brothers too? If you die today, your brothers will be the first to rush forward and die tomorrow." Lu Xuan hugged him. His shoulder said: "Now that the matter has been decided, there is no point in saying anything else, just go and prepare."

Yang Chong was still unwilling to give in, but as Lu Xuan said, what's the use of being unwilling to give in to something that has already been decided?In the end, I could only hold my breath and go back to the camp to make arrangements.

In Lu Xuan's tent, when Lu Xuan came back, Lu Chao looked down like a child who had done something wrong and did not dare to look at him.

"Brother, all the food has been shared among the brothers." It was not Lu Chao who spoke, but the 100-person leader of Lu Xuan's men.

Guo Chang himself may not even know how many men and horses there are under Guo Chang's command. Among tens of thousands of people, Lu Xuan only has more than 800 people. Among the twelve capitals, he is definitely the smallest in terms of number, but when it comes to fighting, , but they are the most capable group.

Like the skin and bones that can be seen everywhere in the military camp, Lu Xuan cannot see them here. Each one of them is a selected sturdy man. Even if he was thin before, he is now fed by Lu Xuan.

In addition, Lu Xuan's subordinates also have the most complete organization, with eight hundred-person commanders and ten ten-person commanders under each subordinate.

There is no further subdivision, and it is useless. Compared with the generals with various duties in the imperial army, Lu Xuan can be said to be simple and crude. At most, Lu Chao, who is in charge of logistics, can be added. But in the rebel army, Lu Xuan Xuan here is already the most complete team in the system. "We will attack the city tomorrow. Let me inform my brothers to follow my orders when we attack the city tomorrow. Don't rush too far forward." Lu Xuan sat down and said.

"Yes!" The centurion leader didn't ask any more questions. Lu Xuan had already established his prestige over such a long time. Although there were not many people under his command, they would not hesitate at all to Lu Xuan's orders. If Lu Xuan said how to fight, they would do it. how to spell.

Lu Xuan called the other centurions and gave them instructions before letting the eight centurions leave. Only the two Lu brothers were left in the tent.

"Do you know why everyone dares to bully you like this even though they know you are my brother?" Lu Xuan sat down, looked at Lu Chao's frustrated look, and sighed.

"I'm not as capable as my brother." Lu Chao lowered his head and said.

"What a great talent." Lu Xuan glared at him and said, "In terms of knowledge, none of these tens of thousands of people combined may be as powerful as you. Your dean told me that you are a material for studying, but your ability is not as good as yours." It has nothing to do with you being bullied.”

"Why is that?" Lu Chao raised his head and looked at his brother in confusion. He also wanted to know the reason.

"Because you look like someone who can't help but want to bully you!" Lu Xuan pinched the flesh on his face and said: "Even if you are like that Huangya, relying on my reputation to show off your power, you won't be Being bullied like this.”

When Lu Chao heard this, he couldn't help but picture himself walking on the road with three or five strong men, walking arrogantly and domineeringly. If he saw anyone he didn't like, he would go up and kick him and say: "What are you looking at? Do you know that I am Who? Do you know who my brother is? If you look again, I will dig out your eyes!"

"Hehehe, little lady..."

Lu Chao shuddered, a trace of resistance appeared on his fair face, and shook his head: "I... can't do it."

The books he read and the education he received made it impossible for him to do such a thing.

"I'm not asking you to be Huang Ya, I just don't act like a doormat. I didn't want to bully you when I saw you like this. I wanted to bully you when I saw you. For no other reason than because you are easy to bully and you are not kind. Wrong, being moral is not a bad thing, but you can’t let people see that you are kind, especially in a place like this! The first time a wolf sees a sheep, he won’t care whether it is kind or not, and will only think about how to eat it? This is What is engraved in your bones is that you are the sheep, and you are still in the wolf's den!"

"What should I do?" Lu Chao looked at Lu Xuan expectantly. He didn't want to be a doormat and wanted to help his brother share some of the pressure.

"Look at my eyes!" Lu Xuan rubbed his temples. He didn't know how to teach him, so he could only use the most direct method and pointed at his eyes.

Lu Chao didn't understand what he meant, so he looked into Lu Xuan's eyes and looked into Lu Xuan's eyes.

Just for a moment, Lu Chao couldn't help but look away.

Lu Xuan crawled out of the dead. Even if he was not specifically targeted, the ferocity in his bones made people dare not look directly at him.

"That's the problem. It's okay to be a coward in your heart, but you can't let others see it. No one would want to follow a coward. Even if he has a lot of talent and a lot of knowledge, it doesn't change the fact that he is a coward!"

Lu Xuan patted Lu Chao on the shoulder: "Your brother, it's my first time to kill someone, and I feel scared. My legs are weak, and the hand holding the knife is shaking!"

"Ah?" Lu Chao looked at Lu Xuan in disbelief. In his impression, his brother had always been a strong man who stood upright and was not afraid of anything when the sky fell. However, Lu Xuan's words made Lu Chao The majestic image created in Chao's heart collapsed.

He looked at Lu Xuan in confusion, as if he was confirming the authenticity of these words.

"Then how did brother do what he is now?" Lu Chao couldn't help but ask.

"Why? I want to live. I have brothers behind me. If I fall, you won't be skinned? So I can only be more ruthless than them. They are all holding two shoulders against one head. Who is afraid of whom?"

Lu Xuan sighed and said: "We are all the same. We are afraid when encountering danger, but we have no way out, right? We are all going to die, why should I be afraid of you? Then it's just to see who is tougher than who. You haven't done this yet Why, avoid your eyes first, don’t bully whoever you bully.”

Lu Chaoru nodded with understanding: "I seem to understand."

"Get some rest early. It won't be easy to attack the city tomorrow. I'll leave a team of [-] people to guard the camp. You can stay with them. If you encounter someone stealing the camp, don't worry about anything else. Just take the people and leave immediately." Lu Xuandao .

"I know." Lu Chao was helpless. Lu Xuan would explain this before almost every battle.

"go to bed!"

"Oh~"
