Chapter 132 Recruitment

"My son is weak and not as strong as I am, so why don't I go for him? Even though I am old, I am strong and not afraid of death, so let me go for my son."

"And I!"

There were sounds outside the ancestral hall, and it was so noisy.

Victor Shen listened quietly, staring straight ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.

I don’t know how long it took, but it became quiet.

The village chief said: “I plan to sign up my second son.”

 After saying this, his face turned pale for a moment, as if most of his energy had been taken away, and he had aged several years.

The scene suddenly froze.

  After a few moments of stasis, the villagers became upset.

“Village chief, what do you think? You are pushing your second son to die!”

“Who doesn’t know that Beiling people kill people like hemp and can eat people, and they can avoid disasters with five taels of silver, so why not avoid them?”

“Village chief, your family doesn’t have enough money. It should be enough if we all pool together.”

“My family doesn’t have much money, so I would like to add 500 coins for the village chief to use first.”

 “My family has made money, I will contribute one tael.”

 …

The village chief felt warm and his complexion improved a lot.

He stretched out his hand and pressed it down, and said, "Thank you for your thoughtfulness. The family is not short of money. I asked for it myself."

The villagers looked at the second son of Village Chief Shen in shock, with confusion on their faces.

 “Yuan Si, are you crazy?!!”

 Yuansi is the name of the village chief’s second son.

Shen Yuansi smiled and said, "I'm not crazy."

  Then he explained: "Beiling is rampant, invading our territory of Dayue all the year round, and bullying the people of Dayue. Although Yuan Si is of no use, he also knows that escaping cannot solve the problem.

 A country has a home. If you don’t go and I run away, how can Dai Viet drive away the invading wolves, tigers and leopards?

 Some things have to be done by someone, and I am willing to do it. "

When these words came out, everyone was shocked, some were ashamed, some were ashamed, some disapproved...there were all kinds of reactions.

Victor Shen suppressed his complicated thoughts and patted his son on the shoulder, "My son Yiyong."

 After saying that, he turned to look at the villagers.

“Yuan Si is right, there is always someone going.”

If they all run away, Dai Viet will be subjugated!

 The people in the village were silent.

 Everyone understands the truth, but it is a battlefield where lives are needed.

Every child is a treasure, no one can help but feel sad.

There are really people who don't care about their children and only want money.

An old woman raised her voice and asked, "My family is willing to go. How much money will the government give?"

 The village chief’s face darkened.

 “Is silver the important thing?”

The old woman said confidently: "Why not? My family is not as well-off as the village chief's family. We have so many mouths waiting for food."

The village chief couldn't stand the partiality of the old woman, and everyone almost laughed in anger.

 “Isn’t it your family’s mouth to eat?”

 Old woman: "Village chief, it would be meaningless if you said that."

 “What’s interesting or not, it’s a human life.” The village chief said sternly.

 The old woman lost her arrogance and said no more.

After all, it is someone else’s business, and the village chief can’t control it, so he can only give it a warning.

"I have told you the government's recruitment requirements. Those who meet the requirements will either pay money or recruit people. Think about it carefully."

 The people in the village looked sad.

"Fifty taels, I can't save five taels of silver a year. I can't survive. My heart aches." Someone cried.

A woman looked at her son lovingly and said, "Son, don't worry, even if mother sells the land, she won't let you go. Even if she dies, our family will stay together." Beiling has a reputation for being fierce. People in the village who have never seen the big world think... Beiling is an insurmountable mountain, and they will lose before they can fight.

At this moment, Shen Kun stepped forward and said loudly: "I want to go!"

 Shen Er, who was chatting with others, was dumbfounded.

 “Am I hallucinating?”

Wang Ergou: "I seem to have heard your brother Kun say that he is going."

"!!" Shen Er was angry, walked over in two or three steps, and pinched Brother Kun's ears hard, "What are you talking about? You want to go to the battlefield before your hair is all grown. I think you are looking for a fight. "

Shen Kun raised his chin high and said unwillingly: "Emperor Kaizu said that every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!

Beiling is attacking me in Dayue. I want to be a general and fight those barbarians into his backyard..."

These words coming from the mouth of a young man who has not yet lost his crown, it seems like a joke, like bragging, in short, it is not very convincing.

The villagers in Zhuxi Village smiled kindly.

“Brother Kun, the recruits are all low-level soldiers when they first join the army. If you want to become a general, you must have meritorious service. If you don’t have meritorious service, you will just be a handyman.” Wang Ergou said.

 “I know.” Shen Kun said confidently.

These masters have all taught.

Shen Er hadn't given up the thought of looking at Brother Kun, his face was livid, and he slapped Shen Kun on the back of the head.

"It's not like I don't have five taels of silver at home, so I won't allow you to go."

Shen Kun looked stubborn and said, "I'm going."

 The God of War went to the battlefield at the age of ten. He is already thirteen, why can't he go?

 The master has said that you should become famous as early as possible.

Shen Er saw that this guy was serious and became really angry.

“If you dare to go, I will break your legs!

Your mother and I didn’t raise you so big so that you could die in vain. "

Shen Kun was young and frivolous, so he couldn't stand being said like that, and he became angry at this time.

"How did Dad know that I would die in vain? I have strength and have learned martial arts. Not to mention making achievements, there is no problem in saving my life."

“Bullshit.” Shen Er shouted angrily, “There are many people who know martial arts and are strong, but why are there still so many casualties on the battlefield? Why do you think it’s because of…”

Shen Nian raised his hands and added, "Two fists are no match for four!"

Shen Er was stunned, his expression improved a lot, and he said, "You heard it, Sister Nian understands the truth, how can you, the second brother, bear to let her worry?"

  Shen Nian: “??”

 “Dad, I don’t worry.” She said extremely seriously.

 Apparently he thinks so too.

Shen Er didn’t think there was anything wrong with his daughter’s idea.

 “It’s right not to worry.”

The brat wants to die, there is no reason for his daughter to worry about him.

 Village people: “…”

This matter is over for now.

 After receiving the news of the conscription, the atmosphere in the whole village was a little heavy.

Shen Nian returned home and as soon as he stepped on the threshold, an old man came forward.

“Little girl, come here, my herbal medicine is not good. Come and take a look at it for me.” The old doctor said in a hurry.

 At this time, he had long lost the elegant look he had at the beginning.

"What's the matter? You're so annoyed." Shen Nian felt a headache when he saw the old man and said with a frown.

 In fact, ever since this weird old man found out that she was really good at growing herbs, he simply didn’t know what to do with her.

 Get a small seedling today, and take out an unknown seed tomorrow and let her plant it.

Although Shen Nian likes to get close to all kinds of plants, there is a big difference between active liking and semi-forced acceptance.

The old man is not angry at all, he just wants to know if his precious herbal medicine can still save his life.
