[The most fundamental instinct of living beings is survival.]
[Humans are creatures of convenience.]
[The essence of emotions is a chemical reaction.]
Li Lin accurately grasps the essence of human nature, using words and situations to provoke the emotions of the new soldiers, silently watching the soldiers who turn their coats and the knights who endure betrayal.
The mentality of the new soldiers brought in by Rastrandin is easy to guess. Lacking a sense of belonging, the farmers have no interest in the noble's obsession with "honorable death in battle." Who loses or wins - they simply don't care. What difference does it make if they have a new lord? They still have to pay taxes and tribute; they merely change the person collecting the rent. Life remains difficult.
