"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 unreasonably noisy.

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

After some time, it became quiet.

The village chief said: "I plan to register my second son."

After he finished speaking, 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 froze for a moment.

After a few breaths of silence, the villagers became upset.

"Village Chief, what do you think? You are pushing your son to die!"

"Who doesn't know that the Beiling people kill people like hemp and can eat people, and they can avoid disasters with only five taels of silver? Why not avoid them?"

"Village Chief, your family doesn't have enough money. It should be enough if we all chip in."

"My family doesn't have much money, so I'm willing to add 500 coins for the village chief to use first."

"My family has made money, I will contribute one or two."

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

He stretched out his hand and pressed down, and said: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness. The family is not short of money. It was the second child who asked for it."

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

"Yuansi, 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 Dai Viet all year round, and bullying our people in Dai Viet. Although Yuan Si is of no use, he also knows that evasion cannot solve the problem.

Only a country has a home. If you don't leave, I will escape. 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.

Village Chief Shen suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart 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 perish!

The villagers were silent.

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

Everyone's children are treasures, no one can help feeling sad.

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

An old woman raised her voice and asked: "My son is willing to go, how much money will the government give?"

The village chief's face darkened.

"Is money 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 this partial old woman, and everyone almost laughed out loud.

"If you close your mouth, it won't be your family's mouth to eat?"

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

"What's interesting or not, it's a human life." The village chief said sternly.

The old woman lost some of her arrogance and said no more.

After all, it was someone else's business, and the village chief had no control over it, so he could only give it a warning.

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

The people in the village looked sad.

"Fifty taels, I can't save five taels of silver in a year. I can't survive anymore. 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, and people in the village who have never seen the world think... Beiling is a mountain that cannot be crossed, 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 think I heard your brother Kun say that he is going."

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

Shen Kun raised his chin high and said unyieldingly: "The founding emperor said that every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!

If Beiling attacks my country, I want to be a general and beat those barbarians into their backyard..."

Coming from the mouth of a young boy who has not yet grown up, these words sound like a joke, like bragging, but in short they are 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 be 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.

All these masters have taught me.

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, "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 bear to be said like that, and he was 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..."

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

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 thought 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 my daughter to worry about him.

Villager: "..."

This matter is over for now.

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

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

"Come on, little girl, my herbal medicine is no longer good. Come and take a look at it for me." The old doctor said anxiously.

At this time, he no longer looked like an expert at the beginning.

"What's wrong? You're so annoying." Shen Nian had a headache when he saw the old man and said with a wrinkled face.

In fact, ever since this weird old man found out that she was really good at growing herbal medicine, he simply didn't know how to tell the truth.

Today she would get a small seedling, and tomorrow she would take out some unknown seed and let her plant it.

Although Shen Nian likes to get close to all kinds of plants, but... active liking and semi-forced acceptance are completely different.

It's strange that the old man is not angry, he just wants to know if his precious herbal medicine can still save his life.
