Chapter 590: International Friends
Before the official start of the Huangquan Purge, almost everyone will gather at the front line.
The front line here is the Huangquan front line.
The Yellow Springs of Yingzhou are located in the area north of Hokkaido.
In the past, it used to be the territory of the Ezo people...... The Ezo people are not Yingzhou people, but an ethnic minority living in the mountains and forests.
The full name of the shogun is the shogun of Seiyi, and the Seiyi refers to the Ezo people.
Because the center of power in Yingzhou in ancient times was located in Kyoto, and the Ezo people in the Hokkaido area, in order to expand and obtain more territory and resources, it was inevitable that there would be a war for survival between each other.
The end result...... It was the Ezo people who were engulfed by the shadow world, and the Yellow Springs area was also formed.
No one can live here, it has become a forbidden area for life.
That said, many of the film world specialties offered in Yellow Springs are still quite valuable.
People often go into the Yellow Springs area to hunt, and they have to pay one-fifth of the harvest.
The shogunate was richer than the emperor because it was closer to Hokkaido, it had the ability to tax most of the specialties of the Yellow Springs region, and because Edo had a larger port, it became a place where wealth gathered.
Therefore, the shogunate was able to support more samurai, and naturally became the main combat force against Huangquan.
Two-thirds of the number came from the call of the shogunate.
The transcendent two realms are eligible to enter it; And the main combat power is above the Transcendent Three Realms.
The swordsmen, who were rarely seen in the past, began to show up gradually...... This is a mandatory conscription order, no matter how much you think of yourself as a swordsman who relies on the old and sells the old, even if he is on crutches, he must go to the front line, even if he dies in it.
Corresponding ...... The prices offered by the shogunate and the emperor were also quite generous.
In the process of Huangquan purification, all the merits made are clearly marked, which is equivalent to military merits that can be exchanged.
If many families want to return to the status of the martial arts and the Chinese family, they must risk their lives here to accumulate actual military merits.
Even if they die in battle, their military exploits will actually settle on the family, so many people are inevitably brothers and fathers and sons.
No one doubts that this battle will definitely be won by Yingzhou in the end, and a war that must be won, everyone thinks that their military merits and honors will be implemented, even if it is only a promise at present.
As for how many people will die, how many will not see the sun the next day at all...... This doesn't matter until the big group makes a decision.
There are always people who die, and no one thinks that they will die until they die.
Do everything you can to get out of the way and fight for a fortune.
This may seem crazy, but it is the only credible and relatively fair path.
For thousands of years, no matter in Yingzhou, Bactria, Rome or anywhere else, military merit has always been the most practical way to be promoted.
For example, in ancient China's siege warfare, there were four awards, which were called "first to ascend", "break the formation", "cut the general" and "capture the flag".
As a general, you can mistake the number of beheadings, but only the corresponding winners of these four awards can't be mistaken.
To ascend first is to be the first to climb the tower, and not to die; The second and third will not work, it must be the first.
In ancient times, in order to break the city, they often set up a camp first, and they all made heavy promises and heavy money, and these people just risked their lives to play wealth.
Take Xue Rengui as an example, at that time, he was wearing a silver-white armor cloak to complete the first climb, and he was extremely eye-catching in the crowd, so he was caught by Li Shimin at a glance.
As a general under Liu Bang, Fan Hao has won the first place eight times;
There are many big-headed soldiers who were not born well, and there are many who rely on the first to turn over, and Lejin and Yu Ban are among them.
There is no war in Yingzhou, and there is also a lack of a systematic promotion system like that of Great Xia, so the Huangquan Great Purification, which can win military merits, is a huge burden for the swordsmen or warriors who have achieved fame; But for those who urgently need to emerge and sharpen, it is simply a dream, impatient, and ready to rush in immediately, turn on the killing aura, and cut all the powers.
Thinking about it, Sun Jianhu must have had a similar idea when he fought Huaxiong before he was imprisoned, it was difficult to get out, and he waited for a long time to finally wait for today.
"Unfortunately, this year is different."
Next to the fire, a one-eyed veteran took a sip of wine and laughed twice: "This time the competition is much more fierce than in previous years." ”
The young man in the black robe picked up a branch and threw it into the fire: "What do you say? ”
The veteran raised his hand and pointed to the side.
The forward base is very large, and it is a military fortress made of concrete walls.
Less than three kilometers behind the front line is the city of singing and dancing, with taverns, restaurants, hospitals, and even a red-light district where geisha can be seen dancing...... The lights are bright and colorful, and the degree of prosperity is not inferior to that of Edo, but the area is relatively small.
After all, this is also a place for the circulation of wealth, and all kinds of consumption are naturally indispensable.
"Now how many people are gathered here, trying to make a future, but they ...... Hiccup, quite a few people, who are still drinking over there today, watching geisha dance, listening to shamisen, are enjoying life. The veteran smiled: "It's not that I can't understand, after all, maybe I'll die another day, so I have to indulge it, right?" ”
"But with such thoughts, can you survive?"
"The more people are afraid of death, the harder it is to live long on the battlefield."
"Today, I want to press the big girl on the bed, and tomorrow it will become a snack for the ghosts and monsters that come out of the yellow spring."
The veteran took another sip of wine: "If that's all it takes, that's it...... But I saw several groups of people coming in today. ”
His drunken expression suddenly became solemn: "That's really different at a glance, it should be a group of young people from abroad, they didn't run over, but they camped in the camp for the first time, rested well, and prepared to welcome the Huangquan Purification." ”
"Why do foreigners also come to participate in the Huangquan Purchasing?" The black-robed young man was puzzled.
"Trial." The veteran whispered: "There are actually some in the past, but not as many as this year, but there are always one or two groups of outsiders, and most of their goals are pure, just to improve their strength and realm, not to earn military merits and honors, purely because the Huangquan Purification is dangerous enough to help them understand the crisis of life and death." ”
Speaking of this, the veteran kicked the fire: "Look at it, this is the gap...... What do you compare to those drunken samurai? I'm afraid that the prey will be robbed! ”
The veteran is drunk, he falls asleep with a wine bottle, he is a veteran guarding here, and he does not need to go to battle.
When the fire was about to be extinguished, the young man's figure flickered and disappeared.
He looked at the camp not far away.
In the spring season, the Huangquan front in the north is still bitterly cold at night.
The light of the fire in the camp proves that there are indeed people who have come here in advance to station, and all of them are international friends.
When you get closer, you can hear the other party's conversation, it is not the familiar Daxia accent, it is actually in Roman.
He leaned closer, just to see if he could meet a few familiar faces in the history of 'three years ago'.
But before he could step into the camp, he heard conversation inside.
The conversation was quiet and careful.
It is a dialogue that uses audio transmission.
True Qi transmission is a fixed point-to-point.
But it's not 100% impossible, it's just that the other sounds that come out are very small, maybe less than one percent.
The young man stood outside the tent and listened to the conversation clearly.
"Isn't the number of targets a bit too much this time?"
"It's a lump sum to be able to earn, do you think it's less?"
"I'm just worried that I won't be able to cope."
"Just bring the corpse back, nothing else."
"Anyway, it's all Yingzhou people's business, what do you care about so much, take people's money, and eliminate disasters with people...... To do this business, the emphasis is on integrity. ”
"Also, my broadsword is already hungry and thirsty, or else I will do it tonight?"
"You're going crazy to do it in the front base...... We're killers, not dead soldiers, can we have a little work ethic? ”
"But my broadsword is ......"
"Besides, it's chopping your hands!"
There was a burst of giggling laughter in the tent.
The young man outside the tent raised his eyebrows...... It's really a group of international friends who came here to solve problems for employers.
At this time, suddenly a person in the tent shouted, "What man, get out!" ”
The young man was slightly stunned, thinking that his such a clever hiding technique had been discovered?
Then I was slightly sure in my heart, since I was discovered, there was no way.
There is money to earn together, and wealth to make together.
He was about to take off his disguise and enter the tent.
But he saw a man on the back of the tent coming out of the darkness.
She met the unkind eyes of the five people in the camp, and explained helplessly: "I, I just accidentally passed by... And I didn't hear what you guys were saying. ”
The five killers who specialize in international business glanced at each other and immediately got up.
It's really just a passing woman who took a step back: "Are you overreacting?" ”
The five of them continued to communicate in low voices, the temperature of the air was still falling, and the killing intent became more and more intense.
After fully sensing the other party's bad intentions, she spoke again: "This is the Yellow Springs front, and if you want to do it, it will immediately attract the attention of the shogunate." ”
At this time, the five people have finished communicating and reached a consensus.
"I didn't expect to meet the people in the file here."
"How much is she worth?"
"She and her sister add up to fifteen hundred Roman gold coins!"
"That's really generous."
"What should I do?"
"There is no reason not to eat the meat that is delivered to your mouth......
"Aren't you going to have to be ethical?"
"Fuck morality, we have morality in this business?! Kill, then replace, assassinate, follow the procedure of the training manual! ”
"Open the silent barrier first, don't be noticed by the surroundings!"
"The movement is a little smaller, although this area is relatively remote, but there must be some masters of the Four Realms in the front line."
The international friends have discussed.
The woman who stepped into the place did not realize that she was a caged bird, and still tried to negotiate to solve the problem.
……
"She's not going to die here."
Bai Yu said to himself: "If something happens, it won't be now." ”
Let's wait and see, and take a look by the way, in the past six years, she has grown a few percent.
Wait for the other party to hand in a wave of skills first, and then go on your own, this is the basic common sense of group harvesting.
It's not because I found out that I've been free-range for six years that I don't dare to show up.
Definitely not.
