Chapter 121: The Unbreakable Knife

Everything is expected to be perfect and black and white - even Narumi, the best among them, cannot avoid this.

Kazuto's aestheticism caused the supposedly most pragmatic warrior class to pursue fantasy beasts that did not exist in the world.

And a battle like tonight's inexplicable heavy casualties but difficult to distinguish victory or defeat is the biggest impact on their values.

Ideals are black and white, but reality always wanders in gray areas. Good things and bad things are not distinct. At first glance they all look the same. If they only pursue pure aesthetics and regard battles, battles and even wars as simple black and white things, then what awaits them is the outcome of defeat in front of more pragmatic opponents.

The concepts that have been firmly formed cannot be pried by words alone. Only by experiencing a severe enough impact in person can it trigger reflection.

As for what kind of path they will take in the future, it can only depend on the individual.

The Kingdom of the Moon, which has been in existence for four thousand years, is now filled with storms and storms.

But how many people, like the warriors of the Qingtian family, are still obsessed with their own personal honor and aesthetics of life and death, and cannot see the overall situation of the entire country.

"Does this country have no soldiers?"

With her unique sensitivity, her disciple asked this question, which she might not even understand the underlying reason for. Even if the sage knew everything, he had no role to speak here.

"The sharpest sword cannot be broken." The witches used this as an excuse to ask the samurai to seal it. Fortunately, because of the chaos on the battlefield at night and the fact that many people were fleeing, the only people present who really knew the situation were A few people from the core group.

As the representatives of gods in the human world, they possess the highest power after the royal family. The samurai have no right to refuse the requests made by the witches.

But even without the layer of identity, Narumi's self-esteem as a warrior warrior alone made Narumi understand that this kind of mistake could not be exposed.

As the top level of military force, the shrine maiden who can use divine power to attack the enemy and the ghosts and gods who can sweep thousands of armies are the most powerful and deterrent weapons in Xinjing. They cannot lose or lose control. Only by always winning and winning gloriously can we maintain this kind of awe that can make people with evil intentions tremble just by releasing their names.

It’s extremely cold at high places.

The responsibility and pressure required to stand in this top position are just like the scars on the ghosts and gods named Teruyuki. They are so dense that a layman would be frightened at a glance, but they have no other choice but to grit their teeth and cover them up with armor.

It is obviously out of control, and the pressure borne by a small number of people is obviously too much; and it has indeed failed. A small number of elite troops are being treated with human sea tactics. Xinjing, the sharpest knife that always wins, has encountered An iron plate that cannot be cut.

The opponents found ways to deal with it, but they still had to get ahead.

"This country has no available troops."

Mira's keen concept is correct. The Kingdom of the Moon does have a large number of samurai troops, but Xinjing will not use them easily.

The tasks performed by the witches and the ghosts and gods are of the nature of "domestic affairs, banditry and security warfare". This country is unified and must be unified. Only a "very small number" are willing to cause trouble, so large-scale troops cannot be used and only a small number of elites can be used to deal with it.

Raising troops and mobilizing a large number of people is a sign of weakness, and mobilizing large-scale samurai troops for the Northern Expedition is a way of saying to the enemies who are eyeing them:

"Our country is going into civil war."

Xinjing’s senior officials are not stupid.

More than a hundred years of exchanges, and the recent rebellion instigated by Lamanite missionaries - they are very clear about what the empire is planning, but it is precisely because of this that they cannot fall into the Lamanites' intention to fan the flames and expand the war. .

We must adhere to the slogan of "suppression of banditry and law and order" and control conflicts to a very small scale. Once the situation develops and large-scale troops are used to fight the civil war between the North and the South, it will force the already wavering Chinese and nobles to think that they need to take sides, which will then expand into nationwide chaos.

This is exactly what the White Church and the Padrosi Empire want to see.

So they only have this knife to use.

And the knife was already scarred.

Are you going to reveal the truth, and tell us that the witches and ghosts are beyond their power and are just trying to cover up the reality? ——What’s the point of this except to show off yourself.
