Chapter 403 General
In the days that followed, Li Sizhuo walked around various worlds, honing his sword skills and also understanding life and its various aspects. He still experienced too little. Although time can make up for it, he was too short of time.

On the Tianshan Mountains, he practiced sword skills against the wind and snow and Wangcai. In the market, he humbly bowed his head to ask his master for advice. No one is perfect. When you really want to learn, anyone is your teacher.

He drank with heroes in restaurants, he watched tigers fight for food in the deep mountains, and gradually everything in the world was integrated into his sword, because he understood that sometimes the truth lies in the sword, and only your sword is stronger than others. Listen to your reasoning. This is what Confucius taught him.

One day, when Li Sizhuo was drinking in the city, he saw an old man in armor riding a horse from outside the city, with a chipped iron sword hanging from his waist, the blade was already stained red to the bone by blood and would never fade. It's a returning old general.

The veteran came to the tavern and tied the horse outside the house. He walked into the tavern with a trace of blood on his body, and the drinkers around saw him and avoided him.

"Xiao Er, bring half a catty of beef and two jugs of spirits, drink one jug and take the other away."

As he spoke, the veteran sat down as if no one else was around.

At this time, Li Sizhuo also heard the scattered discussions around him.

This is indeed a returning old general, but this old general's reputation is not very good, just because he killed too many people, and he is even known as a massacre in the world.

I heard that this old general never surrendered his soldiers and killed all those who lost. Although this resulted in many of their soldiers being killed by the enemy, it didn't matter. They killed one old general and then killed ten. I heard that this old general He loves to organize soldiers. He will record whoever dies in battle, and then bring them back tenfold and a hundredfold on the battlefield. It is precisely because of this that their country has not had a military war for almost ten years, because as long as he is alive, no one dares to fight.

It would be fine if it was just killing the enemy army. I heard that this old general would sometimes not spare the refugees. The most terrifying thing was that once there were refugees blocking the way on the march, he even ordered to kill them directly. Hundreds of people were killed!In the end, there were only a dozen people who survived, and those refugees just wanted to stutter. Even if you don't give them, you won't kill them all!As a general, you will not forget who you protect!They are all citizens of this country!
Listening to the remarks of the drinkers around, Li Sizhuo also gradually understood the character of the old general. This is a killing star, killing with killing, as long as he is strong enough, this trick will always be effective, even now that he is very old. It's chilling.

The bloody smell on his body has not dissipated for decades, because the blood-stained blade has been dyed slightly red all year round. This old general may have killed more people than imagined.

However, decades of experience on the battlefield did not bring him a glorious old age. Everyone thinks he is a lunatic, a murderer, and a murderer. Everyone is afraid of him, afraid of him. These people are not only the people, but also the emperor!

Before the war, the general made great achievements, but who buried his bones after the war.

A good general will have unlimited merits during the war, because he is the pinnacle of the country, as long as he is in this country, he will not be able to break the war, but what if the war is over?If there is no enemy, the general will be the last enemy of the emperor. After all, a general who raises his arms may be more useful than an emperor who has never met before, so generally speaking, at the end of the battle, he is the general. When the curtain ends.

Although he may not be given death, the military power will definitely be gone, and he will even be pushed out of the court. In the end, he has no choice but to retire from his old age and return to his hometown. He couldn't defeat those civil servants in the court, not to mention that he was not the only one who wanted him to leave.

In the end, the old general chose to leave, because he knew that if he persisted and waited for him, he might die. High achievements are not just talk, and even a wise king may not leave such a general with such high achievements. , surviving is already the best outcome.

In the end, he put on his most glorious battle armor, stepped on the sword he had used for decades, and finally left the imperial city resolutely. This may be his last dignity, and this time wearing armor may be the last time Yes, he is no longer needed in this era.

After eating the beef and drinking a pot of strong liquor, the old general rode away directly. I don’t know if this counts as drunk driving, but it probably doesn’t!After all, the horse didn't drink after all, didn't it.

Seeing the old general leave and Li Sizhuo followed quietly, he seemed to have a feeling for this old general, his life was glorious, but people only remembered the mistakes he made, they only knew how many people he killed, but who ever asked him No one cares how many people are saved, because everyone thinks that the general should die in battle and stick to the frontier, right?It was his fault that he couldn't keep it. The general was there to protect the common people, so they ignored his achievements.

In fact, there are also courtiers' fools. What do the common people know?They didn't know anything at all. The court told them that the war was won, and they knew the war was won.

And if the court tells them how many people died because of the general because of the war, they will start to blame the general. When the court tells them how many refugees the general killed, they will start to hate the general, and even do the math in the end. When the general's family has a lot of money, the general's reputation will be completely rotten at this time.

As for the truth?Aren't they telling the truth?How can there be no undead in war, because the general dies, isn't it normal?Can you say that the death of the soldier has nothing to do with this general?

As for the refugees?That's not to mention, he did kill, as for the reason, it's none of our business, in short, if you kill, you kill, the general just can't kill civilians.

In the end, the general's family will not have no money at all!Even if not, let me ask you, is there anything wrong with the general's Maxima worth a thousand dollars?The general's sword is a priceless treasure, so there's nothing wrong with it!The general's mansion is not just a thatched cottage!I can even say that a few unknown stone tuozi are antiques, and I can find a professional to identify them. What do you have to refute me?

Will people pay attention to the truth or falsehood of these things?Don't be kidding, even the emperor won't pay attention, let alone the common people. Your life and death really have nothing to do with the common people. If you say that the price of vegetables in the village has increased, they may quarrel, but a general's When is it their turn to control whether it is good or bad, they will only swear a few words while drinking.

Unfortunately, once public opinion arises, the crime will be established. The whole world thinks you are wrong, so what can you do even if you are right?The answer no one knows is wrong.
