Chapter 2883: Become a cow and horse, and be a hawk or dog

Yang Gong walked to Langxing and whispered, "Pack up your things at night and hide in the mountains before dawn.

Lang Xing nodded slightly, and then said to Lu Bo with a smile, "Lu Bo, you are really a loyal and patriotic man. But as far as I know, our king has always had the intention of annexing the country of Li. This is almost universally known to the world."

Well, King Li’s insult to our king is just an excuse, you don’t need to be angry about it.”

Lu Bo said displeasedly, "Why do I feel so weird when you say this? What's wrong with annexing Li? Shouldn't we annex them? If we don't annex them, how can we dominate the world?"

Langxing continued to smile and said, "Don't worry, I just want to tell the truth. We are just ordinary people. The people of Li country are the same as us. We all work hard to pay donations and taxes. Just because of their

If a country is weak, does it deserve to be annexed? Does it deserve to be devastated by war, or does it deserve to be taken captive as a slave?"

Lu Bo said, "Who allowed them to be born in Li country? They can only blame themselves for their bad luck."

Langxing smiled and said, "Okay, their fate is bad, but our fate is good? What can we get by fighting bloody battles on the battlefield? The land, wealth, beauties, and slaves we get are all the kings and dignitaries.

Yes, we are only given a little military pay, is it worth risking our lives?"

Lu Bo said a little anxiously, "What you said is a bit treasonous. How can we only see that little military pay? If we don't go to attack the Li country, the Li country will come to attack us sooner or later, and then our family will be ruined.

The king raises troops to protect the people."

Langxing said calmly, "As far as I know, the Li country will not come to attack us. The Li country is much weaker than us. They don't even have this self-awareness, so they will pay tribute to us year after year.

But our king still wanted to annex them and kept asking them to cede land, which made King Li anxious and called our king greedy and a wolf that cannot be fed well."

Liu Wuniang asked doubtfully, "The Li country is not weak, right? I heard that they are very powerful and have killed many of us."

Yang Gong snorted and said

"The country of Li only has 20 cities, and it has no more than 10,000 people in armor. We have 70 cities, and 50,000 people in armor. Do you think it is weak?"

Lu Bo couldn't defeat Lang Xing, and he became a little angry and said, "How do you know so much when you are young? Could it be that you are a spy of Li State?"

"Don't slander anyone and say who is a spy!" Yang Gong glared.

Lang Xing hurriedly pulled Yang Gong and said to Lu Bo with a smile, "We are just discussing the truth behind this. You don't need to be so angry. If I were a spy, would I come to this remote place? Is it possible that Li Guo would come to this remote place?"

Send spies to instigate rebellion against just five families?"

Aunt Lu and others were a little nervous when they heard the word spy. They laughed immediately after hearing Lang Xing's explanation. Aunt Lu complained to Uncle Lu, "Brother Lang is right. Don't talk nonsense when you are in a hurry. Just watch."

Brother Lang is so honest and honest, he can't be a spy."

Lu Bo groaned angrily and said, "I don't like to hear what he said. As a citizen of Songguo, how can I not speak for my country?"

Langxing smiled and shook his head and said, "Rupert, if you don't like what you hear, don't talk to me. As a commoner, I just want to live my life well. I am too lazy to care about national affairs and pay such heavy taxes.

If I can't even live a peaceful life and have to shed blood and fight for the king's hegemony, then what good is this country to me? If I act like an ox, a horse, and an eagle or a dog, I don't treat us as human beings."

Ruburt was so angry that he slapped the table and said, "This is getting more and more nonsense! How can you survive without this country?"

Lang Xing said seriously, "Let's talk carefully. If this country disappears, besides not having to pay taxes, what losses will I have? If we don't have to pay such heavy taxes, our lives will be much better than now."

Rubeus pointed at his nose and said, "You're really pissing me off!"

Two eyes speak evil words. If it were not for the protection of Songguo's army, you would have been killed by people from other countries, or at least taken away as a slave. Don't you understand this truth? You must be angry with me here!"

Lang Xing said with a smile, "Yes, yes, you are right. Considering the place we live in, the one who comes to attack us must be the Li Kingdom. But think about it, without the urging of King Li

, will the people of Li country come all the way to attack us? If the people of Li country do not pay heavy taxes, they can still live a very good life, and there is no need to go out to rob. Besides, most of the people are kind.

How many of them would do something that is harmful to nature?"

"What do you mean?" Rubeus felt something was wrong, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute.

Langxing put away his smile and said, "It is the kings and dignitaries of various countries who are so greedy. We ordinary people are not as greedy as them. They want the land of Li Country, the beauties of Li Country, the wealth of Li Country, and the wealth of Li Country.

The common people then drove us to help them rob. Swallowing the country of Li was just the beginning. As they became stronger, they would immediately plot the next country. Even if they unified the world, they would not be satisfied. In their extravagance and lust,

We also had to pay heavy taxes to support them, even heavier than the current taxes, because then the whole world belonged to them, and we had no place to run."

"You bastard! That's such a bastard thing to say!" Rubeus slapped the meat case repeatedly, but he was so angry that he couldn't find any suitable reason to refute.

Uncle Zhang, who had been silent all this time, sighed and said, "If nothing else, it is inevitable that the king wants to dominate the world. This will take many years of fighting."

Goudan said excitedly, "The world should be unified. Only then can I show my majesty. Then when the subjects of all countries see us, who dare not bow their heads?"

Yang Gong sneered and said, "Little boy, how do you know this? If you conquer a place, in order to appease the local people, they will often exempt them from taxes for several years. If you dare to go to those places to show off your power, the government will definitely

I will cut off your head. Do you think that as a Dasong citizen, you can be superior to others? You are wrong. After unifying the world, even if you are not inferior to the people of other countries, you will not be superior to them."

"Impossible!" Goudan shouted in disbelief, looking at his father and waiting for him to help him refute Mr. Yang.

Lu Bo made a loud noise and said, "This is just a temporary appeasement policy. When the time comes to rule the world, the imperial court will not treat its own people badly."

Lang Xing muttered, "When has the imperial court ever treated its people favorably? Our taxes have always been heavier than those in Li."

"You! The more I look at you, the more you look like a spy. Why do you keep speaking for Li Guo?!" Lu Bo glared at Lang Xing angrily.

Aunt Lu hurriedly tried to smooth things over and said, "Just stop saying a few words, don't hurt the harmony."

Langxing smiled at Aunt Lu and said, "I won't take it seriously, but I just want to explain the truth. Just advise Lu Bo not to be angry. I just feel that I can't be betrayed by these powerful people.

It’s so stupid to help them count their money.”

At this time, Su Wan walked out of the back room and said to Lang Xing, "You have said enough nonsense. It makes Lu Bo angry. Why don't you quickly apologize to Lu Bo? Is this what you said?"

Let Ruburt think about it slowly, how can there be such a large number of them?"

Lang Xing said to Lu Bo with a smile, "It's all my fault, don't be angry."

Aunt Lu pushed him and said, "You boy, you look so naive and honest. I didn't expect this mouth to be so talkative. I really misjudged you."

Lang Xing smiled naively and said, "I can't say it, because that's the truth. I'm just telling the truth."

"You still say that!" Su Wan was slightly angry and took the opportunity to wink at him.
