Chapter 247 Recruiting Soldiers (Data has increased, more updates!)
They drank from noon till the moon was hanging on the dome, and they were willing to stop. However, they did not drink the whole time. Of course, they would feel more comfortable if they had some interesting stories and snacks to accompany the drinking.
A Feng's wife supported him, and his daughter Xiao Yuan also stood at the door, waving her little hand and calling in a baby voice, "Uncles, take care!"
Mo Ran, who had only drunk a few bowls of rice wine and was not drunk at all, sent the two drunk people home and also went home himself.
As soon as the door was bolted, Ying's docile look of a girl next door disappeared immediately, replaced by a look of annoyance and helplessness after returning home after seeing her unreliable and unsuccessful brother.
"Feeling annoyed again?" Mo Ran's mind moved, and he established a bridge of sound transmission.
Ying smacked his lips and said, "What else? Also, that girl named Qingli came to see you this afternoon. Seeing that you were not at home, she asked me how my arm was."
"Qingli?" Mo Ran was stunned, then thought of the girl he rescued more than two months ago, and asked, "What is she doing here?"
"How should I know? It has nothing to do with me anyway!"
"That's right, um... true."
"Brother, I'm here." On the top of the mountain, Lei Dianzhen felt the call and immediately entered into a state of meditation and communicated with them.
"You should have already had some idea about the group of people today, right?" Mo Ran asked.
"Yes." Raiden Shin said slowly, "Inazuma advocates peace, but she will not allow herself to be bullied. Tomorrow, Ying will pass the order on my behalf. The whole village will be on a war footing. We will try to form a strong fighting team within a month and go to Nandou Village to ask for an explanation!"
"I see." Ying nodded, and then asked in confusion: "But how do you know that group of people were sent by Nandou Village? Just based on what they said?"
Through the two's words and deeds, Ying naturally learned some tricks from them. Of course, he only became a little smarter, not much.
Mo Ran explained: "It doesn't have to be true. Just having such a reason is enough. This way, Inazuma can have a legitimate reason and won't be accused of being cruel, which will be beneficial to her future rule."
Lei Dianzhen continued his words and said, "So, no matter whether Nandou Village sent people to attack or other villages instigated them, it doesn't matter. They are bound to suffer this loss!"
"Oh." After listening for a while, Ying realized that it was not suitable for him and jumped out of the sound transmission bridge directly.
…………
The next morning, when the sun just rose, most of the residents were already working in the fields. The early bird catches the worm, and no one is exempt from this.
Ying got up early. Even though he hadn't slept all night, he was still full of energy. He went out and, accompanied by Mo Ran, arrived at the center of the village.
The original high walls have been demolished, and the house has been transformed into a simple platform more than ten feet high. This is where the messengers of God usually deliver their oracles.
Soon after he arrived, the news spread throughout the entire village, because this messenger of God usually did not go out, and if he went out, it must be a message from the divine realm.
Ying stood alone on the high platform, and Mo Ran stood beside the steps, guarding the safety of this messenger of God and preventing him from being assassinated by evildoers, although such a situation has not yet occurred.
"I am conveying the will of the gods. From now on, Inazuma will enter a state of combat readiness. We will strive to reorganize our armed forces within a month and counterattack Nandou Village that was invaded yesterday!"
"Captain Shuu Qiuhu will be in charge of the specific matters of the training. Anyone interested can go and sign up."
As soon as the words fell, they caused a huge wave among the crowd.
"Great, I've been wanting to beat them up for a long time!"
"This way, we'll have a chance to show off our prowess!"
"Show your might, why does it sound weird?"
"Don't worry about it. I'm going to the battlefield to kill the enemy anyway!"
"What are you waiting for? Go find Captain Hiiragi and sign up. You don't know how long you'll have to wait in line."
"That's right, let's go, let's go!"
The crowd was restless, and the young and strong men almost rushed to the side of the platform where Shu Qiuhu and several brothers were standing.
This was because Ying had given a heads-up before delivering the message, otherwise it would have taken a while longer.
"Come here, son, they will tell you their names and ages later, please write them down for them!" As the most literate person in Inazuma Village, Hiiragi Kyuuto could only trouble his son to record them.
Kamisato Sangxi on the side was also helping with the counting, and would give it to the eldest son of Hiiragi later. Hiiragi Bowang would come to help him check, so that he could practice and help at the same time.
Seeing that the registration was proceeding in an orderly manner, Ying left quietly. After all, she had no interest in staying and watching a bunch of grown men squeeze in with the crowd.
Mo Ran was different. He just stood at the registration desk and did not help. His main purpose was to tell people that he, as one of Inazuma's fighting forces, would also participate in this operation.
As a result, the five famous Inazuma people gathered here. The young men, who were already full of passion, became even more excited. Thinking of fighting side by side with them, they were all full of energy and couldn't wait.
"Ying Sirang, do you want to sign up too?" Hiiragi Qiuhu looked at the guy who used to be his mortal enemy with his eyes slightly closed.
"Yes." Ying Sirang's words were brief, as if he didn't want to say too much to this person.
Shu Qiuhu waved his hand to stop the people behind him from making sarcastic remarks, and said, "Can you heal the wound on your arm?"
"Of course, isn't your brother also injured? His injury is more serious than mine. If he can do it, why can't I?" Ying Sirang waved his right hand. Apart from being a little slow, there was nothing wrong with him.
"Okay, let's forget about the previous grudges. I'll sign you up, Ying Sirang, 34 years old." Hiiragi Qiuhu looked at Kamisato Sanqi and said.
"Boss Hiiragi, do we really want to report it to him?" Kamisato Sangxi was stunned.
Because Ying Sirang's subordinates were too arrogant and domineering before, and the boss had a bad reputation, and the two sides were often at loggerheads, so now he still doesn't like Ying Sirang.
"Write it down." Shuqiuhu said nothing more.
Shenli Sangxi did not disobey the boss's words. He wrote down Ying Sirang's information on the animal skin scroll with reluctance. Then he used a thin piece of carbon as a pen to scratch the name in the air, as if he was slowing it down.
After Ying Si saw that his registration was completed, he had no intention of staying and turned around and left without looking back.
Kujo Takeshun glanced at the disappearing figure and asked, "Boss Hiiragi, why did you sign him up?"
"That's right. This subordinate of Ying Sirang has been against us in every way before, and he doesn't know how to manage it. Boss Hiiragi, why are you bringing in trouble?" A Feng also asked in confusion.
"So, I'm the boss. Regardless of other things, Ying Sirang's strength is still good. Now he is ranked among the best in the village. One more person is a much better thing. Don't just sit there and look for trouble!" Hiiragi Qiuhu warned.
"Yes, yes, yes." The three of them responded hurriedly, and then looked at the registration team. Among the all-male team, there seemed to be a few women.
Hiiragi Kyuhu patted Kujo Takeshun and asked him to go and check what was going on.
"You guys, come with me first."
"What should we do after waiting in line for so long?" a woman asked.
"Leave it to you. We'll talk about it after we ask." Kujo Takeshun brought a few women to the registration office and said, "Boss Hiiragi, I've brought the person to you."
Shu Qiuhu nodded slightly, looked at the women, and said, "This is the place to sign up for the army. What are you doing here?"
"Sign up, we can also kill the enemy!" A woman pinched her arm, making herself look strong.
"That's right, let us stay." Qing Li, the girl who was rescued by Mo Ran, was also among them.
"No." Hiiragi Qiuhu refused.
"Why? Captain Hiiragi, don't underestimate us because we are women. Actually..."
"It has nothing to do with this. Those who sign up need to be over 20 years old. You are probably not yet that age. Go back." Shu Qiuhu waved his hand.
"You can't refuse to accept us just because of our age. We're the only ones left in our family. There's no other use for us. Captain Hiiragi, please remember us!" a woman said almost pleadingly.
Shuqiuhu opened his mouth slightly. It seemed that there were only men in the guard teams going out in the past. He didn't know why, but he felt that as a man, he should stand in front of women when there is danger, and even die first.
He didn't know what would happen if this precedent was set, but he felt that it shouldn't be like this.
"To tell you the truth that may hurt you, you will be courting death if you go to the battlefield, or it may be worse than death!" Shuqiuhu looked very serious, without any joking tone.
"But we won easily last time against those guards! Why would we just go there and die?" a woman asked again.
Kujo Takeshun couldn't bear to watch it any longer, and said, "Nizi, you feel very relaxed, but don't forget how many people we fought before that. There were more than a hundred of you, and you fought more than twenty. Is it impressive that you won?"
"This, we..." Several women lowered their heads and did not dare to raise them.
"Okay, okay, you guys go back quickly, we are still busy here." Hiiragi Qiuhu sighed, turned around and continued to look at the registration team.
"These women are such a waste of time!"
"You still want to go to the battlefield? Haha, find a man to marry as soon as possible and stop embarrassing yourself here!"
"Alas, women are like this, they can't see their place clearly! Hahaha."
Three people in the team shouted with disdain, and the people around them frowned slightly because the words were a bit vicious, but since they didn't know who said it, no one came out to stop it.
The women buried their heads even deeper and did not dare to talk back, even though what those people said was not accurate and was not the common sense of the world.
But they had just missed the opportunity to register, and they felt uncomfortable at the moment, and they also realized that they had indeed wasted everyone's time.
Jiujo Takeshun glanced at them and yelled, "Which bastard said that? Get out here! Your mother is not a woman! You don't have a wife at home! How dare you talk like that!"
Ah Feng patted him on the shoulder and scolded him, "They have good intentions, but they just didn't look in the right direction. Who was yelling just now? Before you sign up, let grandpa teach you how to talk and behave!"
Unfortunately, there were so many people that they couldn't tell who was shouting, and after looking around, they still couldn't find anyone.
Shu Qiuhu looked at his brother and for some reason suddenly asked, "Brother, can you find out what those girls were yelling at just now?"
Mo Ran still said nothing, but he moved, shuttled through the crowd, grabbed the three scattered people, threw them back to the place where they registered, and walked back.
"You're the only ones yelling there, right?" Kujo Takeshun rolled up his sleeves and cracked his fists. His attitude was completely different from when he was talking about those women just now.
"We, we were not wrong. They are indeed wasting our time. You can't favor them just because they are women!" One of the three wanted to struggle.
"How am I biased? Come on, tell me, tell me!" Kujo Takeshun roared, "You don't have much ability, but your mouth is full of gossip. Do you think you are very capable?"
"Okay, don't scare people. They might go back and beg for mercy, saying that we bullied them. In one word, do you want to apologize?" Ah Feng closed his eyes slightly and put his hand on the hilt of the knife, which had a significant deterrent effect.
"Sorry, sorry! We were wrong and shouldn't have said that!" The three of them kowtowed to Shu Qiuhu and the others.
"Towards that end." Kujo Takeshun pointed at the women who were standing there, at a loss.
After the three of them repeated their apology, Hiiragi Qiuhu gently asked, "Do you need them to do anything else?"
"No, thanks. Thank you, brothers." The one who should be the leader among the women shook her head.
Except for Mo Ran, the others waved their hands. After letting the three bastards leave, Shu Qiuhu continued, "In fact, there is another reason why we don't let you go to the battlefield."
"All of us men have gone out to fight. Who will do the work in the fields? We can't fight without food. Do you understand?"
"Captain Hiiragi, we got it. Just focus on fighting. The food supply in the village will surely increase!"
