The Lunatic Merciful person - C95 Forced conscription

“General, this town is really strange. It’s actually so peaceful, as if it wasn’t affected by the flames of war at all.”

A military officer with bandages on his hands and a dirty face said to a valiant looking general.

“That’s right. Merely, they are actually still able to live peacefully in this world of great struggles. They truly do not wish to advance any further.”

The general frowned and actually expressed his dissatisfaction with the peace of the town. Instead, he felt that any ambitious man should join the battlefield.

“What the general said is right. I have a plan that will allow the people here to devote themselves to the cause of the Central Plains. At the same time, it will allow us to fight back and regain the importance that the king attaches to us.” The officer with the bandaged hand said in a flattering manner.

“I have already thought of the method. You should go find a few civilians and ask them about the situation in the vicinity. It would be best to find out if there are any other towns nearby. We can start recruiting when we have a plan.”

The general had a shrewd and calculating look on his face, but the officer next to him was very clear on what was important. Otherwise, he would not have suffered a defeat.

“As you command!” The officer bowed and said.

After that, the officer ordered a few of the more robust soldiers, dressed as refugees, to enter the town and inquire about the situation and see if they could get some food over here.

When the soldiers left, they were all stationed at the same place to rest.

“General, we only have a little more than a thousand soldiers. Even if we’re recruiting, we need to get some food.” The officer with the bandage on his hand said worriedly.

“Without food, let those new recruits bring them from home. If they want to accomplish something in this chaotic world, how can they accomplish it without paying a little bit?” The general said firmly.

This really made the officer speechless. What was the difference between this and a forced conscription? He even had the suspicion that he was robbing the convoy directly and had a dignified appearance.

After a while, the soldiers that had been sent out returned. They had brought some food with them, but it was like a drop in the bucket to solve the problem of food for these thousand people.

“Did you find out anything about the town?” the general asked impatiently.

“Reporting to the general, the people in the town are extremely enthusiastic, and the surrounding situation is also told without reservation.” Reporting to the general, the people in the town is extremely passionate, and the surrounding situation is told without reservation.

As one of the soldiers dressed as a refugee finished speaking, the others also nodded their heads.

The general was angry as he heard Dudian’s words. He cursed out loud: “A deserter. This general hates deserters the most. Do you believe that I won’t kill you?”

The situation between the officers with bandages on their hands was not right, so he immediately tried to stop him, “General, now is the time to hire people. Furthermore, the situation in the town is still unclear, so we should ask them first!”

The general felt that it made sense, so he retracted his earlier anger and said, “deputy general Zhan is pleading for mercy on your behalf, do you know what to do?”

The few soldiers were about to kneel down and beg for mercy. Seeing deputy general Zhan, with his bandages on his hands, pleading for mercy, they felt grateful but they knew that it would not be easy to leave.

“There are more than three hundred families in this town. Not far from here is a Madness Temple and another thirty to forty miles towards the outskirts of the Madness Temple. There are also two towns, each with three to four hundred families. The Madness Temple resides a mad spirit that they believe in, which is also why they are able to live and work in peace. ” The soldiers who were involved in the investigation quickly replied.

After the general heard this, he first calculated the number of soldiers that might be collected and could not help but feel dissatisfied. However, no matter how small the flies were, they were still meat. There were about a thousand households in total, so it was possible to obtain around a thousand spots.

However, after hearing about mad spirit, this general was somewhat disdainful.

“mad spirit? If there really are deities in this chaotic world, then what the hell would there be in this chaotic world? Furthermore, if there really are deities in this world, then based on his abilities, he shouldn’t just protect these thousands of families.

The general could actually say anything. His mouth was really open.

Although the words of a deity had never been verified, no one could truly prove that the deity did not exist. Therefore, Soldiers still had a heart full of fear and respect for the deity.

Hearing their general speak like this, they were truly a little worried, afraid that they would offend the mad spirit that the people here believed in. After all, the situation of the people here living and working in peace was completely different from any other places they had been in.

Even so, not a single soldier dared to stand up and persuade their general.

Wei Yutian was happy to stop others from fighting, so during this period of time, he would always open his ears whenever he had time, and could clearly hear everything that was happening within a three to four Li radius around him.

However, these defeated soldiers were extremely far away from the Madness Temple, so Wei Yutian could not hear what they were saying, so even if the general really killed the few soldiers that wanted to become commoners, Wei Yutian would not know.

However, it was not because Wei Yutian was useless, he was wholeheartedly opening up his five senses every day. He needed to circulate the energy in his body to support himself, as it would benefit his progress in martial arts greatly.

Without hesitation, the general ate something and brought everyone into the town.

When the people of the town saw the arrival of thousands of people, they could not help but feel flustered.

The soldiers that had been dressed as refugees all lowered their heads in anger, as if they were afraid that they would be seen by others.

However, the Huayan gang had some businesses in the town, and the people inside could immediately see what was going to happen, so they quickly released the messenger bird and informed the Madness Temple’s Yan Shiyong and Fang Tonghua.

“Si Mu, there are some things in the town, can you come with us?” Fang Tonghua asked.

After such a long time, they were already familiar with each other, but they were still respectful to Wei Yutian, afraid that the Moneytree’s protective talisman would accidentally run away.

“Alright!” Wei Yutian did not hesitate at all, his entire face was brimming with a brilliant smile. He had already lost all sense of wariness against the people in front of him, and only had a pure friendship with them.

“But it would be best for Si Mu to fly in the air, and not come out when there’s nothing wrong with him, in case the citizens kneel to you. Fang Tonghua said again.

He naturally had his own reasons for doing this. This logic was naturally to use Wei Yutian’s state of mind to achieve the desired goal.

After all, they were gods who were raised, and they would only show up when their people were in danger. That was what a god should be like.

Of course Wei Yutian was willing, he believed that Fang Tonghua and the others would not lie to him.

As such, Yan Shiyong and Fang Tonghua brought along a few sect disciples and headed straight towards the town. Wei Yutian laid down in the air, using his internal energy to move at the same speed as the others, slowly advancing.

As for the defeated soldiers who had just arrived in the town, they first found a high platform in the center of the market where they could carry out their sentence. Then they sent some of their men to the only 300 families in the town to inform them about the conscription.

A conscription that allowed one to live a life of peace and stability, a conscription that no one was willing to engage in on the battlefield, was impossible to accomplish so easily.

After some notification, no one came forward to register and join the army. That made the general quite unhappy, so he decided to forcefully recruit soldiers and told every three people to form a group and go to every house to forcefully capture people.

Every man over the age of twelve and under the age of fifty in the family, was not spared. If the woman was willing to work for the army, she could also take them away at the same time. However, this all depended on whether the woman was willing to or not.

How could the people in the town not retaliate when they forcefully captured someone like this? However, how could the people not be their opponents? Those who did not submit to the conscription were first punished ten times and then dragged away.

However, these Soldiers s did not know what kind of consequences would result from the punishment of the rod that they laid down.

“Bandits, you bandits, you will definitely be punished by the mad spirit.”

“Save me mad spirit, Save me mad spirit …”

“Ah, damn it, even if you kill us, we won’t join the army with you …”

The citizens scolded incessantly, the people who were caned screamed miserably, they were praying for the mad spirit’s blessing.

However, Wei Yutian was still more than five kilometers away from the town, so he could not hear that these people were being forcefully recruited by these veterans.

“I never would have thought that the people of this town were so stubborn. I kindly wanted to bring them onto the battlefield and gain the qualifications to shine on their families. However, these people did not think that it was an honor and instead resisted in such a manner. Just find one or two examples and directly kill them. This general would like to see if they will really fight on the battlefield even if they die. ”

It was unknown where this stubborn general came from, but he was deeply poisoned by the glory of the battlefield.

“mad spirit? Hahaha… Are these people really that stupid? If there was a mad spirit, why haven’t they come out to help them up till now? ” The general continued to speak with a puzzled expression.

At this time, all the soldiers had already captured and brought them to the market area of the execution platform. All of them looked at the heroic general on top of the execution platform with fury.

“Bandits, mad spirit will punish you.” One of the middle-aged men shouted.

Following that, the other commoners began to shout as well, causing the general to be unable to continue listening to them.

“Bandits? You actually dare to insult us great warriors to be bandits, you truly do not know your place. Men, bring this man to this execution platform and kill him. ” the general shouted.

deputy general Zhan, whose hand was bandaged, wanted to step forward to stop him, but he knew in his heart that persuading him would be useless. He also wanted to recruit troops, but with such a strong method, it would definitely cause the citizens to be unhappy. If all of them were to resist, not only would they not be able to recruit a single soldier, they might even lose their combat power.
