live with conscience

Compared with the Nie family and the Lin family who moved closer to the royal family and lived happily, the situation of the Jin family and Jia family was not so good. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were in dire straits.

The Kingdom of Water has declared a state of emergency wartime, and the country's military conscription order has been enforced throughout the country.

The cause was the energy riot caused by the Nie's Manor in Lingquan District.

Some things cannot be concealed from people. The big moves caused by the frequent moves of the masters in the capital have already caused panic. The spiritual spring of the capital’s lifeblood centered on the Nie’s Manor has a quality that cannot be concealed. The change directly made the aura in the capital a bit stronger, and the news that the heavenly general rescued the world with the pure spirit spar could no longer be suppressed.

Those who want to suppress the news to gain the maximum benefit are the aristocratic families who want to take advantage of the opportunity. The royal family has no intention of hiding it, and they can't wait to announce it to the world immediately.

Although the royal family relied on the advantages of the right time, place and people to crush all the crystals that appeared with overwhelming strength, it seemed to be the biggest beneficiary, but before the crystals appeared, the group of royal masters headed by the emperor held their breath.

Since the appearance of the plague ghost, the royal family, as the highest ruling class, has been suffocated by this group of family dogs who don't give meat and don't work.

In order to win over and appease the aristocratic families, the royal family has promised a lot of benefits to the aristocratic families, but the scale of the plague ghosts has expanded again and again, and they are willing to follow the royal family. .

Now the remaining aristocratic families are either those who can shrink as soon as they can, those who are waiting for a price, or those who are ready to make a decision before making a move, and those who want to overcome the next, um, commonly known as wanting to make trouble.

The east wind overwhelms the west wind, and the west wind overwhelms the east wind. Over the years, the two sides have fought with great joy.

Fortunately, the royal family has a strong background and the external environment is becoming more and more severe. Under the premise that everything is damaged, the aristocratic family does not dare to make too much trouble. Both sides are just friction, and there is no explosion.

The influx of refugees from all directions has long stretched the nerves of the people under their rule to the extreme. If they, the upper class, blow up first, the only end will be internal disintegration and death.

This is also the reason why both sides are very restrained.

However, after the appearance of pure spirit spar, this stalemate was broken.

The two sides fought almost every time for the spar, but the royal family that could rule the whole country was always superior, and launched a ruthless campaign to suppress the aristocratic families.

In order to restore people's hearts and revive morale, the royal ruling group did not give any chance to the aristocratic families who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make troubles. The life-saving army built with a lot of money, the Jingshi army was also sent to the front line.

Under the premise of being willing to spend the money, he achieved exciting results on the front line without accident.

Because of the release of these pure spirit crystals and the joining of the Royal Purification Army, the Kingdom of Water pushed back the plagued area that was constantly pushing inward for the first time, purifying and regaining eight cities.

As soon as the good news came out, the excitement of the whole country could not be overstated.

Even if these eight cities have been reduced to dead cities with no grass due to the army of plague ghosts, it is enough to make the people in despair cheer.

The long-suppressed panic and uneasiness of the Chinese people who were forced to shrink back by the plague ghost bottomed out, and the terrifying fighting spirit transformed into it broke out.

A little guidance ignited the enthusiasm of the whole people to fight back against the epidemic ghosts.

This no-nonsense, death-defying fighting spirit erupted with amazing power, as if returning to the time of the Five Kingdoms War a hundred years ago, before the plague ghost appeared, the moment of the decisive battle that determined the life and death of the country, no, this terrible and unified public opinion and war It's much scarier than it was then.

It is not difficult to understand that it is also a moment of life and death for the country. This time, the battle with all-out efforts to fight back against the plague ghosts is much more dangerous than the battle a hundred years ago.

It is life and death in the true sense.

In the Great War of the Five Kingdoms a hundred years ago, it is gratifying to win, but you can also endure humiliation if you lose.

It is sad that the country is destroyed and the family is mourned, but the separation and reunion is the general trend. No matter who it is, as long as they have the heart, they can still survive, and there is hope in life.

The plague ghost is different. The reason why the plague ghost is named the plague ghost is because it was born in the treatment center of the war zone. It was born from desperate and dying warriors and soldiers. It is like an infectious disease.

When the plague ghost was born, it was just like a person infected with an epidemic. It broke out in the battlefield that was not treated and purified in time, and spread to the seriously injured and dying soldiers at the fastest speed. At first, the military doctors thought that it was full of resentment, Frustrated soldiers are just a normal reaction of people who are dying. Under too busy conditions, they are only roughly isolated, and let these people wait for death. Unexpectedly, as the blood energy absorbed by the plague ghosts is increasing, it has completely become climate.

Plague ghosts are monsters formed by absorbing blood energy from all kinds of evil thoughts on the bloody battlefield. In addition to instinctively chasing the vitality, flesh, and aura of living beings, they continue to devour and transform their own energy, and then assimilate more of the same kind and transform themselves to suit themselves. Outside of the living environment, there is no longer any desire.

No consciousness, no will, only instinct, only know how to find and devour living beings, not afraid of martial arts, ignoring spells, and there is no other way to destroy them except to let the spirits use several times higher spiritual power to completely purify them after capture.

The land of the dead where they gather can easily arouse negative emotions in human beings. The living can't survive. It's just a plague ghost who has become a climate. After encountering people who also have resentment, hatred, and death, It will soon assimilate people into the same kind, and then merge together.

At first, everyone just thought it was an ordinary evil incident, and sent monks and Taoists with spiritual power to purify it. Who would have thought that once the plague ghost appeared, it would have to be thoroughly purified.

If the purification is not complete, it will come back.

The battlefield full of killings is the most suitable breeding ground for them to reproduce. At that time, it was the time of the great war, and an army of plague ghosts was formed if they were not noticed for a while.

Wherever the plague ghost passes by, there is absolutely no life.

The two superpowers that have completely perished are the best proof.

In the war with the plague ghosts, there can only be victory but not defeat. The non-human race cannot coexist. Once human beings lose the battle, it will be the day of genocide.

I don't want to be assimilated into that unconscious and unconscious monster on the battlefield, the only thing is a war.

On this continent, defeat without a fight is synonymous with cowardice and uselessness.

For a hundred years, there has been no war between humans, but the struggle against the plague ghost has never stopped.

This kind of pervasive thing that can't be completely purified is completely defenseless, and it has long been inevitable to retreat on the battlefield.

Even if the country intends to suppress the depressing news of the defeat, the powerful and wealthy people who are constantly pouring into the capital for refuge, as well as the refugees who are constantly pouring in, tell everyone how quickly the front line is defeated.

In addition, from time to time, even in places far away from the battlefield, such as the capital, a place with abundant aura, there will also be one or two cases of disease infected with the plague ghost from time to time, which will bring more despair and panic to the people.

This is also the reason why plague ghosts are hard to guard against. Its origin is the very negative emotions of human beings such as fear, despair, killing and resentment. Their threshold value of empathy, even in a place with abundant aura, can be infected and transformed immediately.

Of course, in places with abundant spiritual energy, as soon as the plague ghosts appear, they can be found immediately, and it is very simple to purify the plague ghosts.

This terrible situation scared many people to the point of giving up hope. It was suddenly reported that the spar had fallen from the sky to save the world, and with the great victory after the spar was released, one can imagine how exciting it was.

Taking advantage of the victory of this war and public opinion, the conscription order of the country is just following the trend.

There are three types of conscription orders, ordinary conscription orders, wartime conscription orders and imperial edict conscription orders.

In this land that advocates the benefits of war, after tens of thousands of years of war, the laws and regulations of conscription have been perfected to the extreme. No matter what class or level, from the royal family down to the common people, they must abide by it.

Ordinary conscription orders are used for normal and normal recruitment of soldiers;

A wartime conscription order is an order to expedite the recruitment of soldiers during a war, and to summon retired and serving soldiers.

These two kinds of conscription orders are common conscription orders on this continent. They are dispensable for the rich and powerful, and they can't hurt the bones. Very operable.

Only the conscription order of the imperial edict is uncommon. For thousands of years, countries have risen and fallen countless times. Once the enlistment order of the imperial edict is issued, it means that the country is in an emergency stage of life and death.

Because the conscription order of the imperial decree means that the country will organize all the combat forces that can be conscripted into the war, which is the so-called national conscription.

The last conscription order of the country was more than a hundred years ago, before the appearance of the plague ghost, when the country was suppressed by several other countries and was about to perish. It was only the sudden appearance of the army of plague ghosts that made the conscription order withdrawn after only one day of suspension .

And this time there is really no possibility of withdrawing, so the Jin family and the Nie family are both having a headache about this conscription order.

Once the conscription order of the imperial edict comes out, regardless of gender, as long as they meet the age, unless the body is seriously ill or the family faces serious inheritance problems, well, the degree of severity refers to the only one left. For example, only Daiyu is left in the Lin family. The Nie family is in Nie Heng Before the minors, it can barely be regarded as meeting the conditions, and you can apply for family-style exemption from military service, and you will not be enlisted in the army.

Others, as long as the physical function meets the conscription standards, they must be conscripted into the army and wait for the unified arrangement of the state.

The strictness of this national edict’s conscription order is especially reflected in the noble family with titles. In this kind of national crisis, the noble family who have been enjoying the support of the country and the people must of course take their own as soon as possible. Its manpower and material resources followed behind the royal family.

If you dare to conceal your escape from conscription at this time, you can immediately deal with it as treason.

As soon as the conscription order came out, every household, except for the most basic left-behind members, had to be called up to join the army.

For example, like the Duke of Jin's mansion.

After some planning and fighting, those who can stay are Jin Guogong whose wife died, the wife of the second room, the designated Liu Ding of each room, and the old and young in the mansion. Others, as long as they are capable of fighting, can be used Yes, everyone has to go to the battlefield.

Liuding is a unique term in this world of warriors. It means that in times of emergency, for the sake of family inheritance and racial continuation, each family is given an exemption quota when facing imperial conscripts and joining the army.

The quota range is very strict, and the designation is based on marriage. Each family can only keep two people, one male and one female, in order to inherit the family and reproduce the existence of future generations.

Well, if there is no man in the family, you can apply for one more place for a woman, but not for men.

On the battlefield, the strength of male warriors is more dominant, and the country does not allow such deserters to exist.

Moreover, conscription by the imperial decree is not calculated according to the household registration registered by the state like ordinary conscription or wartime conscription, but is calculated according to the family type in the household registration, that is, whether you are married or not.

Especially during the emergency conscription period, except for the remaining members, the old, the young and the disabled, the rest of the adults in every household must be recruited to the battlefield.

What is considered humane is that if none of the remaining members of the family are married, one of the parents can be left behind to complete the management within a limited time before going to the battlefield. Such a regulation is barely accommodating.

This kind of delay is considered time-consuming, because the wedding procedures of the rich and powerful have rules to follow. Delay for three to five months.

As long as the war ends within this period of time, or the conscription order is withdrawn, then the person who will perform the wedding will be safe.

Mrs. Jin Er is such a lucky person. She has three sons and one daughter. The eldest son died of illness, and there is only a posthumous grandson at the age of [-]. The second daughter can apply to stay in the family, but she is not yet married. age.

According to the regulations, there is Mrs. Jin on the top, and the grown-up second daughter on the bottom. After the second daughter gets married as Liu Ding of the Duke of Jin's mansion, the second Mrs. Jin also needs to be recruited to join the army.

The luckiest are probably those young people who were just married before the conscription order came out and had no descendants, and those families whose children have not yet grown up and are all young children.

Since conscription is based on the family, as long as there are no descendants of the couple, the state will give a one-year reprieve (stay) after the start of the conscription order.

Jin Guogong is such a lucky existence. He only has one underage daughter-in-law. When he was still young, as the head of the family, he could stay as a matter of course without any resistance.

Ok……

Although it is a matter of course that there is a lot of water, the twists and turns are also very exciting.

Lin Lan and Lin Daiyu, who watched the whole show, expressed that they were very satisfied.

The reason is that as soon as the conscription order came out, the old and shrewd old man took a fancy to the property and people in Jia Baoyu's hands.

This can be regarded as Jia Baoyu's unlucky, self-inflicted.

He is also one of the grandsons who brought all their family property to the Duke of Jin’s mansion. The Nie family has defected to the royal family. The Lin family has already dissipated all their wealth, but he looks the best every day. robbery.

Once the conscription order is issued, to a certain extent, it is equivalent to a large-scale top-down census, or the kind that can be pulled into the battlefield immediately after being registered on the spot.

After all the people who are qualified to go to the battlefield have been conscripted, no matter where in the country, there will be empty rooms. Except for the public security and defense teams belonging to the state government, almost every household in the country will be old, weak, sick and disabled. .

Especially the Guixun family, as a class that has always enjoyed the support of the people, if the country is in crisis, if they can't dispatch troops as soon as possible, bring good food and go to the front line in response to the call of the country, they will definitely become the object of rejection by all people.

They don't care about the opinions and ideas of the people who they have always regarded as ignorant ants, but once the royal family and opponents of the same class use this to provoke trouble, they will be in big trouble, so at this time, whether they want it or not, they will put it aside. Show an attitude of serving the country and the people, and participate with the greatest enthusiasm and the best attitude.

Although the battlefield is a place of life and death, it is also a place to make contributions and increase one's own strength.

The important point is that the conscription order of the imperial edict is different from the other two conscription orders. The aristocratic family can justifiably raise their hands, recruit people, and expand their troops.

It can be considered a compromise and mutual benefit. In order to allow the Guixun family to contribute better, under the conscription order of the imperial edict, the royal rulers defaulted that they could bring their own men and horses to arrange nearby.

What conforms to public opinion and serves the country and the people...

Well, it's true.

It is true to want to eliminate the plague ghosts, but more is the interest behind the war.

A well-established family knows that in this battle, if you lose, you will lose everything, but if you win, it will be the time to divide the cake again, how could you miss it.

They have a good population, but when there are too many people, resources are not easy to allocate, especially the future of each ninja is the most difficult to allocate.

Whether it is being an official or occupying a territory, there is a limit to the scope. There are only so many people in the country, the land is so big, and the interests of the official position are so many. One radish and one pit. The danger of attrition, where like this time, is a national war.

The danger has not been reduced, but this danger is the same for everyone. When the degree of danger is the same, it can be calculated as nothing.

It is definitely the best time to make a big difference with a small one!

As long as one's own people are still alive after the victory of this war, there will be a lot of things to do.

This is also why the aristocratic families were found out in the conscription order of the imperial edict, a large number of hidden population, fields, property, and double or even multiple identities. When committing a crime, those who have no opinion at all will obediently admit the real reason for the punishment.

When conscription is compared one by one according to household registration, there is no investigation at all about who is more or less in the country, and what kind of resources are available in where.

In times of emergency, the law does not blame the public.

For the sake of stability, no one will hold on to this, in order not to cause greater conflicts, and in order to meet the needs of war material supplies, as long as the dignitaries have the courage to admit their mistakes, the hidden population, world, and property will be newly registered and cleared. After losing multiple identities, making up the amount of taxes and fines used as military expenses, and recording a minor demerit, there will be no problem.

The reason why the old man hit Jia Baoyu's idea was to get enough manpower (cannon fodder) and supplies from Jia Baoyu for the Jin family to go to the battlefield.

Jia Baoyu is also the only remaining seedling of the Jia family. According to the regulations, he does not need to go to the battlefield.

However, this exemption and preferential treatment only applies to Jia Baoyu, and the servants, disciples, and staff he brought from the Jia family are not within the scope of this exemption.

It should be said that the "Jia Baoyu" player who originally wanted to use the capital of his body to do a big job, the people brought from Jia's family are all elites who can use them conveniently, and even elites who fully meet the conscription standards.

Unlike the Nie family, the elites of the family all died in the border towns, and most of the people brought back were old, weak, sick, and orphans of slaves who depended on the Nie family for survival. Nie Yinyin (Lin Lan) There is no denying that this was done intentionally by the former head of the Nie family;

Unlike the Lin family, they have no family relatives. After the family property was paid to the country, apart from the most basic self-protection, the Lin family (on the surface) did not leave anything at all.

It can be said that if Jia Baoyu does not go to the battlefield, the forces carefully selected in his hands will have nothing to hide, and will be wiped out by those who are interested.

As soon as the conscription order of the imperial edict was issued, the old man who was determined to go to the battlefield vigorously and vigorously took a fancy to what Jia Baoyu had in hand.

The old man was also greedy for the things in the hands of the Nie family, but he knew that the Nie family was already tied to the royal family, and he didn't dare to reach out when it wasn't his turn.

The Lin family...

To be honest, the things left for the little girl are a bit shabby. Except for Mrs. Jin who can't figure out who wants to subsidize the family, no one will appreciate it.

Like other dignitaries, Duke Jin's mansion was also fined a large sum for concealing population and land. Although it didn't hurt any bones, it had to wait for a while.

Ok……

The main premise of being able to slow down is that Duke Jin's mansion does not need to bring people to the battlefield.

War is a very realistic and expensive thing.

If you want your subordinates to work hard for you, in the context of the national conscription order, you have to pay enough to pull up the team.

In order to recruit the masters of the people, from the royal family to the powerful families, there are many ways to do it.

As soon as the conscription order of the imperial edict came out, the streets and alleys were full of recruiting information posted by the aristocratic families, and the rewards were more generous than the other, not to mention, if you have the ability, you can save enough for the three generations of the family at once, which is not unreasonable. .

Because of their supremacy, the royal family is in charge of the appointment and canonization of officials, so they are very reserved.

It can consume the strength of the nobles of the family and disperse the resources and wealth in their hands, and the royal family will not hinder it.

This is also the reason why the royal family is willing to turn a blind eye and let them use various hypocritical banners to expand their own strength.

How much money and resources are spent on raising soldiers, who knows who raises them.

Anyway, no matter how many people they recruited, they have to listen to the command of the royal family after they go to the battlefield, and after making meritorious deeds, they still have to go through the national route. , was rewarded by the emperor.

A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. The royal family wished that there would be more soldiers who wanted to be generals among the common people, preferably those servants and servants among the dignitaries of the aristocratic family!

Take the account of the powerful family, and choose the available people for themselves, saving time, effort and money. Although most of these recruited people will become cannon fodder, a small number of them will become thugs for the nobles of the family to compete for military exploits, and finally they will be rewarded. Standard ones are rare, but that's okay.

Except for the conscription order of the imperial edict, the royal family monopolizes talents in various names. The royal family is not afraid of the lack of this round. The emperor is stupid to stop it.
