The system came a hundred years earlier, I kicked Beihai Kindergarten

"It's all me, it's all me..."

"If you are soft-hearted, you will never be suitable for the battlefield." Shen Lang said: "On the battlefield, your heart must be hard! If you don't lead them, and replace them with an incompetent general, they may directly charge towards thousands or tens of thousands of people. In that case, they can't change anything, and can't save anything."

"Your decision-making and leadership, even if you failed to defeat the enemy, at least saved thirty-four people, including yourself, right?"

"You said they shouldn't die, so all you can do is let them get closer. But will the enemy be fooled? You've done a good job!"

Shen Lang seemed to be talking to Wei Qianluo, but also to himself.

In fact, Shen Lang was also feeling a little heavy.

Perhaps, letting Ji Wendi punish him was also a way for him to punish himself.

After the battle, Shen Lang felt very upset looking at the corpses of the soldiers on the city wall.

If it weren't for this strategy of catching the turtle in the jar, many people might not have died.

Judging from the data, this was a great victory, but people cannot judge by data.

If we don't fight this battle, what if the enemy retreats on their own?

However, Shen Lang does not regret the decision he made.

Rather than expecting mercy from the enemy, it is better to take the risk and defeat the enemy.

After all, power comes from the barrel of a gun.

If you want national stability and peace and prosperity for the people, you still have to rely on your fists!

"Master, I don't know what to do. I, I..."

"You don't know what to do, so what do you want?" Shen Lang grabbed Wei Qianluo's shoulders, pushed her back, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me, what do you want!"

"I just want to follow my master..." Wei Qianluo lowered his head: "I don't want to do these..."

"As long as I can practice with Master and serve Master, I will be satisfied..."

Chapter 141 Sleeping together

"Well, then don't do it. Just follow me carefully in the future." Shen Lang said, "Do something you like."

Being a general is not suitable for everyone.

Who wouldn't feel sad if one of his soldiers died, unless he was cold-blooded?

People are all made of flesh and blood, and not everyone can consider the overall situation.

If you don't have the ability to bear it, then don't bear it.

If we force her to do something she doesn't like, it would be irresponsible to her and to the soldiers.

Wei Qianluo thought Shen Lang would lecture her on some moral principles.

After all, Erniu had seen that she was upset before and comforted her, saying that she would definitely be a good general in the future.

Although Erniu was very sad about the death of those brothers, he told her that as long as they were given pensions and treated their families well, that would be enough.

Dying on the battlefield is a soldier's fate.

But Wei Qianluo didn't want to be a general.

Everything she did before was just to help Shen Lang.

After helping Shen Lang, Wei Qianluo found himself in a dilemma for two years and he suddenly didn't know what to do.

She wanted to help Shen Lang, but she didn't want to kill more people.

So, no matter how Shen Lang comforted her or how he told her that she was right, all she could think about was the missing people, and she instinctively resisted leading the troops.

Unexpectedly, Shen Lang agreed directly.

“But, I’m a captain, appointed by the imperial court. Would I be considered a deserter if I do this…” Wei Qianluo lowered his head.

After all, it came from the Zhenbei Palace.

The Kings of Zhenbei in all dynasties have governed the north with military force, and deserters are the most despised.

This kind of thinking has already subtly influenced Wei Qianluo.

"Not really." Shen Lang shook his head: "You follow me and take the position of brigade commander. You are my subordinate. If you feel that you can't do it, I can let Erniu take over your position of brigade commander temporarily."

"Or do you think that Erniu is not mature enough and is not doing well enough?"

"Erniu is very good." Wei Qianluo's eyes brightened up a little, and those confused eyes began to have more spirit: "He can do it!"

"Well, you just can't make a decision, but you still know how to fight, right?" Shen Lang said with a smile.

"Yes!" Wei Qianluo nodded vigorously: "I can help you fight!"

Shen Lang understood that Wei Qianluo was soft-hearted. She didn't want to take responsibility, but there was no problem in letting her take action.

This is also in line with the court's policy.

After all, many monks don’t know how to use troops at all, but they can defeat thousands of enemies on the battlefield and hold high positions.

On the other hand, those who are well-versed in military books and have low cultivation can at most serve as the staff of these monks.

"Now that you've thought it through, take a good bath. You've turned into a clay doll." Shen Lang pinched Wei Qianluo's cheek: "I need to take a bath too..."

“Okay…” Wei Qianluo nodded: “Master, how about I help you get some water first…”

"Where does the water come from? In this windy and sandy day, cities that want water can either use their own stored water or ask cultivators who can use ice or water magic to make it themselves and then supply the whole city. If we want to take a shower, we still have to do it ourselves." Shen Lang said this, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes: "I don't know how long this sandstorm will last..."

Water is the source of life.

It can be said that the water sources outside Xuanmo Pass have been polluted by the wind and sand, making it extremely difficult to use water.

It was okay when the time was short before, but as time goes by, it will become more and more difficult to use water.

A cultivator who is good at water and ice spells must reach the Divine Sea Realm to create water, and even the Leaping Mortal Realm cannot do it.

Wars involving monks are truly terrifying and can easily affect the entire celestial phenomenon.

…………

After Shen Lang finished washing and eating something, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Lang opened the door and saw that it was Lu Fengxian.

"How is it, is everything done?" Shen Lang looked at the brigade commander badge hanging on Lu Fengxian's waist and couldn't help but feel very satisfied.

"Uncle Shen, I have something to ask you." Lu Fengxian said.

"Oh? It's a rare opportunity. Come in." Shen Lang took Lu Fengxian into the house and sat opposite him.

Although the child is only ten years old, Shen Lang has always treated him as someone older.

After all, he had too much experience.

"Uncle Shen, twenty-three of the soldiers who had been with us day and night died." Lu Fengxian clenched his fists: "If we hadn't come here, would they not have died..."

"After a battle, they just received a small reward, and I... became the brigade commander."

“I think they’re trying harder.”

The twenty-three people that Lu Fengxian mentioned were brought into the city by Shen Lang and Lu Fengxian.

At that time, there was a chaotic battle to defend the city, and all the soldiers were incorporated into the defense team. Even the artillerymen had to use their swords to attack people, not to mention the scouts.

"Fengxian, you can't think like that." Shen Lang's face darkened.

He said solemnly, "If we hadn't come to Cannes, Cannes would have been lost, and more lives would have been lost. Would you feel at ease just because you don't know anyone in Cannes?"

"This..." Lu Fengxian frowned on his childish face.

"As a general, you must always consider the overall situation!" Shen Lang said, "The reason why we stay in Kangcheng is for the victory of the entire battlefield."

"In the beginning, our mission was to conduct reconnaissance, but we couldn't find Muyun City at that time, and we even encountered a herd of beasts."

"After one attack, we captured an enemy general."

"Bringing him back to Goose City is certainly right, but since we can do better, why not do it?"

"Cannes is the front line. Only by bringing the enemy generals to Cannes can we maximize their value!"

"We must not have the mentality of politicians who seek to avoid mistakes rather than merit, otherwise countless people will die at the hands of the enemy because of our inaction."

"As for your promotion, don't think too much about it. It's because you have the ability. Since you are the brigade commander, you must shoulder the responsibility and do more things to live up to your salary and the trust of the soldiers."

"In a battle, the fewer soldiers you consume and the more enemies you kill, the more you deserve everything you have."

Shen Lang patted his shoulder.

"I...when I first joined the army, I actually just wanted to eat more..." Lu Fengxian lowered his head.

It was Lu Fengxian's first time experiencing war, so it was inevitable that he felt a little confused.

Seeing the person I had been with day and night die at the hands of the enemy, and I was powerless to do anything...

Shen Lang also had this feeling when he was in Muyun City.

Although this was Wei Qianluo's second time experiencing war, it was her first time leading a team. Like Lu Fengxian, she was a little confused.

"What is your adoptive father's expectation for you to become a successful person, or simply to get married, have children, and live your life in a muddle?" Shen Lang said.

"He..." Lu Fengxian thought about it and realized that his adoptive father really wanted him to marry, have children, and live in peace.

However, when the adoptive father saw those important figures, his eyes were filled with longing.

When he saw those ordinary people, his adoptive father did not show that kind of expression...

"Perhaps, he told you that peace and safety is a blessing, but if you have the ability to soar to the sky, how could he be willing to let you be mediocre?" Shen Lang taught.

"Thank you Uncle Shen, I understand."

"Remember, don't live to repay me, your life is your own." Shen Lang said that Lu Fengxian is the future Shura of the North, and he can't let his supplies go to waste.

This is the difference in treating men and women. Shen Lang's attitude towards Wei Qianluo is to let her do something she likes.

It is inevitable that we will be more strict with Lu Fengxian and have higher expectations of him.

…………

Time passed quickly and it was evening.

During the day, Shen Lang was beaten, applied medicine, and dealt with the promotion issues of Lu Fengxian and Wei Qianluo. He didn't sleep or meditate all day.

He is a monk, but he is not made of iron.

Shen Lang changed into his pajamas, yawned, and prepared to have a good sleep.

dong dong dong...

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door again.

Shen Lang was so tired that he was a little irritable. He walked to the door impatiently and opened it.

But I saw Wei Qianluo standing outside the door, holding a pillow.

“Master, I can’t sleep…” Wei Qianluo lowered his head: “When I close my eyes, I see their faces…”

"It's okay, you can use meditation instead of sleeping..." Shen Lang touched Wei Qianluo's head.

"Master... can I... sleep here with you?" Wei Qianluo raised her head and looked at Shen Lang with tears in her eyes.

Obviously, this incident was a big blow to her and it would take her some time to recover.

After all, Lu Fengxian is a weed that will not fall down no matter how hard the wind blows or the rain falls.

But, Wei Qianluo came out of an ivory tower after all, and all his previous acquaintances in the palace were not friends, but enemies.

And those soldiers were very kind to her and respected her very much.

She lost so much at once, and even with Shen Lang's guidance, she couldn't recover all of a sudden.

"This... you are a girl after all, sleeping with me, your reputation..."

"Master, I don't care. I just want to have a good sleep..." Wei Qianluo didn't know where he got the courage from. He took a step forward, staring at Shen Lang with his big eyes.

She was wearing white pajamas, the most common cloth pajamas.

But even this kind of pajamas can't hide Wei Qianluo's domineering figure.
