Chapter 147: Surrender to the army!
Centurion Cao Lianwang personally led his troops and took away all the registered military households in Hongliu Tun except Zhang Liao.
It came and went in a hurry, without even a formal document.
Zhang Liao frowned as he looked at the family members of the garrison soldiers who were blocking the door of his house, crying and cursing.
Cao Lianwang is definitely pretending to be a public servant to give him small shoes privately. How can he recruit soldiers in the winter? Besides, all the military households over the age of fifteen in Hongliutun have been taken away. Damn it, where can he find people?
When the dog thief took the people away, he gave a death order. If he couldn't recruit soldiers, he and his family would be sent to the northwest. Everyone knew that there was a war there. What did Cao Lianwang want? Kill his whole family!
No, we have to go find out what happened!
......
Everyone in the meeting hall looked at Shen Lanxi strangely.
Did she know something, so she put it into practice for the military households in the camp by organizing funerals?
Generally, this kind of transfer of military households must be from somewhere fighting a war, and they are sent to the station to fight!
“I called you here today to discuss recruiting troops!”
Liu Yan replied: “My lord, how about I go to the county to buy some food now?”
Suddenly, the recruits were in panic, feeling like something was out of control. At this time, with money and food in hand, I don’t feel panic!
Shen Lanxi: "Don't worry, you can't buy it if you go to the county now!"
Wei Dongzhu: "The local barracks must have purchased grain and grass in advance!" Even if there is high-priced grain , also a few days later!
Cheng Zheng wrote: "It may be related to the Queen Mother!"
Sang Guo: "It may be related to the Northwest King!"
Other students had the same idea, and some rebelled !
Wei Dongzhu also agreed: "It can't be in the northwest. The Northern Expedition Army is stationed there. Even if troops are mobilized, it won't be their turn to be mobilized in Dongchuan!"
Liu Yanhui pondered for a moment and said: "I think we should take precautions in advance and prepare all the food for the winter."
Shen Lanxi: "What you said is all reasonable, but no one is on point!"< br>
Everyone: "..."
"I'm going to join the army, what do you think!"
A few people expressed shock!
"Lord, are you sure?" Liu Yanhui swallowed hard.
Shen Lanxi looked at him: "Sure!"
"But... you are a woman!" Liu Yan's reply was what everyone here was thinking!
Shen Lanxi saw their shock in her eyes and said in an indifferent tone: "In the past, people under the age of fifteen and those over fifty were not recruited for recruitment!"
Everyone was startled.
The recruitment order left by Cao Lianwang when he left clearly stated that there were exceptions to the rules for recruiting troops. Those who were exiled to the army could deregister their families, prisoners who joined the army could be converted into military households, and civilians who joined the army could each receive twenty taels of settlement allowance, regardless of their origin. , regardless of status, as long as they are willing to serve, they can enjoy the treatment of ordinary soldiers, be rewarded based on their merits, and be granted the title of marquis and Prime Minister!
"Why is the court so anxious to recruit troops?" Liu Yan murmured back, the bad feeling in her heart getting stronger and stronger!
Shen Lanxi glanced at everyone: "I want to join the army, will you follow me?"
A few people hurriedly stood up and saluted: "We are willing to follow!"
Shen Lanxi looked at Shen Yuanjing at the back: "What about you?"
Shen Yuanjing was so shocked that he couldn't turn around. When he saw everyone expressing their opinions, he quickly stood up and said: "I am also willing to join the army!"
Shen Lanxi: "Go home and discuss it with your family, we will only wait for you for half an hour!"
As soon as Shen Yuanjing heard the time limit, he ran towards home!
Shen Lanxi tapped the table and continued to arrange the next steps! "Master Hu and his family, Shi Da and the four of you, follow me and join the army."
"Liu Yan will be in charge of the rear. After we have established a foothold, we will bring you, Cheng Zheng and others in!"
Wei Dongzhu said: "Xiao Fang and his nephew may also be willing to follow us. "
Shen Lanxi: "Go and ask them. The list must be finalized within an hour!"
"In addition to them, there are others. Feng Wu and six secret guards were included in the list.

Shen Family
“No, I don’t agree!” When Shen Congwen heard that his son was going to join the army, he was the first to stand up and stop him!
"Yuan Jing, now that the world is amnesty, after the spring begins, maybe we can return to the capital. You kid, don't make such fooling around!" Shen Conglian also tried to dissuade him!
Shen Yuanjing shook his head: "Father, uncle, don't think about it. Even if we are amnesty, we can't go back to the capital!"
Shen Yuanxu also stood up.
"Father, I think joining the army is a great opportunity for our Shen family!"
Ms. Liu doesn't want to hear what her son has to say. She knows her son better than her mother. She listens to her son's Meaning, I knew my son must also want to join the army.
"Yuanxu, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, it is not a child's play, don't talk nonsense!"
Shen Yuanjing and Shen Yuanxu's ideas coincided with each other, and Shen Yuanjing listened a few times In the discussion, you will know more!
"Grandfather, grandmother, and grandson, I would like to ask you, the Wei family's army's food and salary were stolen, and our family was sentenced to exile. Is it a lighter sentence or a heavier sentence?"
Of course it is a lighter sentence, and the entire Wei family army was wiped out. This incident is enough for them to move hundreds of dollars home!
"The death of the Queen Mother has reduced the support of our Shen family. Although the Northern Expedition Army has gone to conquer, the number of people killed and injured, as well as the troops and money spent, are countless. There is no guarantee that it will not happen. Someone revived the theft of food and wages and took the opportunity to punish us heavily!”
The Shen family was silent!
Shen Yuanjing continued to add: "When we were in the capital, there were quite a few people who disliked our Shen family!"
Shen Congwen wanted to interrupt several times, but the words came to his lips, but he was unable to say them out.
Because what my son said is true!
"Grandma, father, uncles and aunts, I went to join the army because I wanted to give our Shen family a chance to survive!"
Don't think that if they hide in Dongchuan, no one will be able to deal with them. Everything in the world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers. Even if they are sent to the ends of the earth, just one sentence above can destroy them all!
“My grandson is wise and brave, brave and resourceful...” Mrs. Shen covered her face and cried bitterly!
"Is there no other way? Maybe the higher ups have forgotten us? Isn't there still His Majesty who is protecting us?" Miao murmured in despair.
Shen Yuanjing was anxious, the time given by the eldest sister was running out!
"Grandpa, grandmother, father, please make a decision as soon as possible. If the time is missed, I am afraid that the family will be arrested!"
The Shen family was panicked after hearing the words "grab the adult!"
“How could it be possible? We are civilians!”
Shen Yuanjing ruthlessly shattered their illusions.
"When you capture young men, you only capture civilians. While there is still money for the An family at the beginning, the family should make a decision early!"
The Liu family, the Miao family, and the Tian family originally thought that Shen Yuanjing would be willing Just go by yourself, they won't let their son go anyway.
Now when they heard that Shen Yuanjing said that he knew how to catch strong men, everyone began to panic.
"I heard from my eldest sister that the court is in a hurry this time. A family may arrest more than one strong man, and it is very likely that all men over the age of fifteen will be arrested!"
