“…… Conquer the vast starry sky, expand the territory of the empire, you participate, you witness...... Dreams of the Empire, Your Dreams ......"

On the streets of Hangzhou, Shen Bingfeng looked at the recruitment advertisement broadcast on the huge curtain wall TV for a long time, and his mood was extremely complicated.

In the past few days, an unprecedented news has spread all over the world, and the empire has announced that it will carry out an unprecedented large-scale recruitment, with the recruitment scale reaching tens of millions of people, an unprecedented and unprecedentedly huge recruitment scale.

On the recruitment advertisement, one after another battleships sailed through the sea of stars, the huge sun in the background was so dazzling, and on the bridge, the commander of the Imperial Space Force, Major General Sun Xiwu, personally stepped out, dressed in a general's combat uniform, and stood on the bridge and saluted in the direction of the earth.

The majestic giant ship, the sonorous commander standing on the bridge in the general's combat uniform, together constitute an extremely moving picture.

This is a recruitment advertisement for battleship soldiers.

And on the opposite side of this giant TV wall, a 3D billboard is also playing an advertisement for the recruitment of interstellar assaults.

“…… When we set foot on strange planets again and again, when we conquer patches of starry sky, we never regret it, our youth is fired, our dreams come true, we are great interstellar assault soldiers......"

On the huge advertisement, a soldier dressed in a full combat suit and holding a single laser cannon in his hand stands on the roof of a small city that has just been built on Mars, the muzzle of the cannon is lightly raised, and his eyes are looking into the depths of the starry sky.

In the square downstairs, tens of thousands of interstellar assault soldiers are dressed in neat black combat uniforms, holding all standard military high-energy laser guns in their hands, as if they have just conquered this planet, and they are extremely majestic.

Shen Bingfeng is about to graduate from college, and he has already experienced the primary genetic modification and primary brain domain development carried out by the school, and the Yanhuang martial arts that he has cultivated for six years have also made him reach the lowest martial artist, and it is not a problem to deal with twenty or thirty ordinary people with his bare hands.

Although his own conditions are not particularly excellent, he can be regarded as a promising young man among the young people of the empire.

Originally, he was going to apply for the military academy and study battleship-related majors, but his mother was seriously ill and bedridden, so he had no choice.

His father was recruited to Mars, where there was a newly discovered energy mine that required skilled workers, and he had to take care of his mother nearby.

His father's job was very well paid, and if he went to a military school and his father went home to take care of his mother, the family would lose their only income.

He majored in chemical engineering at university, and the 45 students in his class were genetically modified and brain-domain developed, albeit only in the elementary medicine.

After considering their potential and interests, one-third of them are ready to go to a field related to their major. One-third are going to be soldiers, and one-third are going to be clerks, workers, businessmen, or whatever.

Shen Bingfeng was one of the few people who didn't make a good decision.

Maybe I'll become a small trader, or a small 9-to-5 clerk.

Although none of this was what he wanted to do, he desperately wanted to be a soldier.

Taking the flying bus that had just opened, Shen Bingfeng quickly returned home, a small courtyard in an old alley in Hangzhou.

"Mom, this is the lotus seed I just bought, I'll go make lotus seed soup for you right away."

Shen's mother has a kind of physical debilitating disease, the scientific name is 'Roche syndrome', which was only discovered in clinical practice by a medical scientist surnamed Luo the year before last.

Shen Bingfeng carefully helped his mother on the bed to sit on her back, there is no special medicine for this disease now, and the existing medicine can only sustain life, but food, clothing, shelter and transportation need to be taken care of.

"Child, mommy is sorry for you."

Shen's mother cried, her hand slowly stretched out from the quilt, and she actually held a book of notes, the one that Shen Bingfeng often wrote.

"Mom!"

When Shen Bingfeng saw this, he understood everything, and his mother saw everything he wrote in the book. In the past two years, the record is full of news about my mother's illness, my father's news, and my own dreams.

"Child, it's not good to be a mother......"

"Mom, don't think about it, dreams are one thing, my biggest dream now is to let Mom get you better soon. I'm still young, and when my mother recovers, I'll go back to the army. ”

Shen Bingfeng did not deceive his mother, his biggest dream was to hope that she would get better, followed by becoming a soldier.

"Child, you are still young, and it is time to work hard to achieve your lofty ideals. A good man has ambitions in all directions, how can he spend his time in front of my hospital bed. ”

Mother Shen wiped away her tears and said seriously.

"Mom, this is not a waste of time, the world is big, and the parents are the biggest."

Shen Bingfeng shook his head and said.

Shen's mother did not continue to speak, nor did she tell Shen Bingfeng that she had had a video call with her husband who was far away on Mars in the morning and told him about it.

Three days later, Shen Bingfeng suddenly received a letter from the Recruitment Office of the Imperial [***] Academy.

"Shen Bingfeng:

In view of the fact that your basic requirements meet the registration requirements, we are pleased to officially inform you that you will go to the No. 128 Recruit Training Camp in Hangzhou on July 15, 1952 to participate in the re-examination of the battleship soldiers......"

This is actually a reply letter from the recruitment office, Shen Bingfeng was at a loss, he hadn't signed up at all, how could he send an exam notice? And he also passed the preliminary examination.

When he looked back at his tearful and smiling mother, everything understood.

It turned out that his mother secretly registered for himself, and according to the file of his injection of genetic drugs and brain domain development drugs when he was in school, the martial arts file, he directly passed the initial test and could enter the second test.

"Mom......"

"Go ahead, kid. Your dad decided to hire a Filipino maid to take care of me around the clock, and they were very conscientious. There's another wage increase at the mine on Mars, so don't worry about the cost. ”

Mother Shen said kindly.

"But, Mom's illness ......"

Shen Bingfeng said silently in his heart, although the opportunity is rare, it is difficult to be loyal, and he can't say that he still has to give up this opportunity.

"The second good news is that your father's request for help letter to the Royal Family Foundation has been replied, saying that more than 1,100 cases of mother's disease have been re-diagnosed around the world, and they will provide a special drug within this year, and will organize experts to consult us in advance."

Mother Shen had a happy smile on her face, and the royal foundation's personal reply that Zhang Luo's special medicine from the Imperial Science and Technology Committee would definitely be useful.

"Great!! Mom, really? That's great! It's just wonderful. ”

Shen Bingfeng only felt a huge sense of happiness hit him in an instant, the help of the Royal Foundation, and the special medicine that the Science and Technology Committee personally tackled, all of this seemed to be a dream far away in the sky, but now, it has become a reality.

Half an hour later, when Shen Bingfeng's mother and son received a reassuring call from the staff of the Royal Foundation again, they were finally at ease.

"Go, child, this is a rare opportunity, if you miss it, you will have to wait a long time, mother will take care of her illness, you must believe in Your Majesty, believe in the Empire."

Shen Ma said earnestly.

"Mom, I will definitely be able to get in, and when I am admitted to the battleship, I will make contributions in the future, and I must change you to a high-level gene needle."

Shen Bingfeng knew that only the best genetic needles could improve his mother's body, and he hoped that one day he would be able to rely on his military exploits and exchange for the extremely precious high-grade genetic medicine.

……

At the same time, far away in Brazil, in Rio de Janeiro's slum neighborhood, a young black man was returning home with a recruitment poster.

"Father, I'm going to sign up for the army."

Little Buck saw the old Buck, who was dressed in darkness and had just gotten off work from the boiler room, and said excitedly, Old Buck was taken aback, and while wiping his hands on his body, he said worriedly, "The conditions for being a soldier are too high, I asked for you last year." ”

After the slums were demolished, this is a new area built under the leadership of the local government of the empire.

While the empire's most insane policies of genetic modification and brain domain development have not yet been rolled out on a large scale outside of its own borders, the economic benefits of Brazil, an otherwise poor and backward region.

A large number of backward industries began to move to these places, and the Imperial Axe, in reorganizing the old Brazilian Axe, declared that it would maintain the purchasing power of the original currency, and that it would not turn them into waste paper overnight.

However, while these currencies can buy food, clothes, fruits, ordinary goods, etc., they cannot buy those high-tech products.

Including personal microcomputers, such as the most advanced genetic drugs, flying cars, personal spaceships, etc., very high-tech products cannot be purchased with old currency.

So what if ordinary people want to buy high-tech products in the new era?

It is only possible to earn a new currency, which is the new yuan issued by the Empire.

These new renminbi circulate in newly joined regions such as Brazil, which are the payment of public officials' salaries through political axes, the payment of projects led by political axes, social assistance, public welfare funds, etc., all of which are new renminbi.

In this way, ordinary people can still buy ordinary necessities, even far more abundant than before, but things such as flying cars, they can't afford to buy them in the first place, and the impact is not great.

The real impact is on the rich in the first place.

Those local tyrants and capitalists were still glad that the political axe did not encroach on their money, but only confiscated a small part of the real estate, but they found that their wealth could only be displayed in these backward areas.

There are many millionaires in Rio de Janeiro, and after joining the empire in Brazil, they originally wanted to immigrate to the mainland to live the life of the rich, only to find out that their wealth is not even a fart in the country, except for ordinary daily necessities, anything with high technology content cannot be bought.

Only the renminbi can be used, and wealth is restricted.

The exchange of the old currency and the new renminbi is strictly restricted, and those who exchange money without permission are sentenced to prison for disrupting the economic order.

This has greatly controlled the old rich to lie on the so-called hotbed of revolution and enjoy themselves, especially the billionaires in Europe and the United States, who can only suffocate themselves to their own nests, and they may be equivalent to a middle class compared to the local citizens.

They can also become truly imperially rich again, but that will take a long time and they will have to get used to the new economic system.

"Moreover, you now have a stable job, and you only need to deliver 500 courier ...... a day"

In the slum neighborhood, Buck, an old black man, is ready to reassure his son and persuade him not to become a soldier, "You have not been genetically modified, and you have not developed a brain domain, how can you go to be a soldier?" ”

"Father, the recruitment announcement said that this recruitment is for all regions of the entire empire. People who have not undergone brain domain development and genetic modification can also join the army as long as they are proven to have potential through assessment, and then receive genetic modification and brain domain development after entering the army. ”

As a 21-year-old young man, Buck Jr. really doesn't want to send a lifetime of couriers.

"Is there such a good thing?"

Old Buck didn't even mix in with the courier, and is now a water boiler in the slums.

"Yes, father, you promised to let me try, I feel that I have great potential, and I will definitely be able to pass the exam. Now is the best opportunity, if you look at the rich people in the city, they can only run rampant in Brazil, and they are not even a fart at home.

I want to be a soldier, I want to fly a spaceship, I want to land on an alien planet, I want to make a lot of money for you to genetically modify, I want to buy a flying car, and even take you to live on the mainland! ”

Little Buck waved his arms of excitement at his parents, who were almost 50 years old, as if he had taken an oath. Like most 21-year-olds, he speaks incoherently and lacks sufficient coherence, but he lacks passion and dreams.

"Go then, my son. Everyone is saying that the rich are sitting on empty feet, that this society needs a new yuan, that the empire has provided a new order for us poor, and that now the opportunity has come. When you become a soldier and make a fortune, marry a beautiful girl, and send your son to the homeland, we are old, just watch you live well. ”

Although he is black, Old Buck also hopes that his son will live happily, since he wants to be a soldier, let's go, maybe he can be an excellent battleshipman?

"Long live, long live the Empire, long live Your Majesty, I'll sign up today!"

Little Buck was excited, just like more than two billion other citizens around the world, the vast number of aspiring young people, young people with potential, this time got a great opportunity.

For the first time, they discovered that if they wanted to get ahead in the empire, in addition to studying, they could also go to the army.

Many young people from humble backgrounds who are worried about a way out see hope.

When it comes to reading, they have missed the best age for learning, unless it is in a military school or training camp, and even the new education promoted by the empire is difficult for them to become talents.

In terms of martial arts, Yanhuang martial arts are most suitable for the physique of local citizens, and before the empire came up with a second set of improved Yanhuang martial arts courses, it was difficult for them to learn real martial arts except in the army, let alone become a glorious martial artist.

When it comes to doing business, no matter how much money you make in old currency, you can't enjoy a high-tech life.

And now, the way out of being a soldier, regardless of background, is in front of everyone.

Whether he is the son of a billionaire or a street beggar, as long as he is a citizen of the Empire, whether a native citizen or another citizen, as long as he passes the screening, he can enter the assault unit or the battleship unit.

This is the first time that the empire has opened a door to all the people, a door to get ahead, glorify the ancestors, and make a fortune.
