The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1607: Being Pulled into the Army Again

When we entered the barracks just now, the officer had already told everyone that no matter how you learned about the front-line battle situation, you must keep your mouth shut after entering the barracks. If anyone talks nonsense, military law will be immediately enforced.

Seeing the shock on Sambik's face, Raf knew that this guy had never heard of it. He originally thought that his father had wide connections and should have heard of the situation in the north, but now it seems that he was also deceived, or he had not interacted with people in the army for many years.

This is indeed the case with Modira. When he chose to live in the countryside, he had actually drawn a clear line between himself and the army. If he were to go back, he would probably not be like this now. Therefore, for Modira, it is very beneficial to stay away from his colleagues in the army.

If he gets too close to them, he will easily be dragged into the army again. Since the war when he retired, Modira sometimes has nightmares at night because he doesn't want to go to the army, but he didn't expect that he could hide so cleanly. Now his youngest son has been dragged into the army. So no matter how you want to distance yourself from the past, the court will remember it.

When the court is on the rise, your life may be protected and you may be given some benefits from time to time. But if the court is on the decline, a useful person like you will not be able to escape no matter what method you use, unless you run to the desert and become a bandit. In that way, the court cannot find you and perhaps you can escape.

Of course, in Modira's heart, if he had known the court's idea earlier, he probably would not have waited in the village, and would have taken his children to the depths of the desert early. Although there are all kinds of dangers there, and he might starve to death tomorrow, at least his life is in his own hands, which is much better than it is now.

After entering the army, no one knows what to do in the next minute. More importantly, no one is very clear about the Tang army's tactics. The higher-ups are still concealing the secret, and only a few people know the Tang army's tactics. How can we not be defeated if we just go into battle like this?

After the two of them finished their whispers, they returned to the circle again. Many people were asking each other about the news. No one remembered the prohibitions that had just been issued when entering the military camp. They just wanted to know what the future would be like. Unfortunately, most of them were farmers. How could they possibly know the situation on the battlefield? The rest were all groundless speculations, which brought great distress to this night.

Fortunately, the weather here is relatively hot, so there is no need for tents at night. These soldiers are newly recruited and have no corresponding tents at all. If you want to rest in a tent, you can only bring your own. Everyone relies on themselves to live, and then slowly closes their eyes, trying to calm themselves down, but when they think of everything that will happen tomorrow, they can't fall asleep.

"Why do you think the Tang army came here? Aren't they to the east of our Andong Governor's Mansion? As far as I know, the Andong Governor's Mansion is far away from here, thousands of miles away. Did we all bow down in the middle? Otherwise, how could they come to the capital?"

A small man said with his eyes closed. The question he raised was also what everyone was wondering. Didn't the Arab Empire just win? They defeated the Frankish Kingdom in the Western Continent and brought back a lot of their troops. Many people got a slave in their homes.

Unfortunately, the slaves could not adapt to the local climate, and most of them died of illness. Only a small number of them survived. Those people were much taller and stronger than us, and they worked much better than the locals. Just when they were ready to enjoy life, who knew that the empire announced such news. The Tang army appeared in our north. Farmers who could have been farming at home now had to follow the army to fight. No matter how capable you are, the empire needs you at this moment, you have to take your weapons and livestock and contribute your strength to the empire.

This is what the conscription officers told them. Naturally, no one would express dissatisfaction in front of those people, but when everyone calmed down, they were all thinking about the same question, that is, from the Governor's Mansion of Anton to here, has the defense line of thousands of miles collapsed completely? Then what is the use of us going there?

Some people even think further, that is, why should we provoke the Tang Empire? I heard that they are also an extremely powerful empire, and they are already a hegemon around them. Our land is already large enough, why should we provoke such a huge enemy? If we can't defeat them, then all our previous achievements will be gone, right?

"Everyone, shut up. No one is allowed to continue talking. If anyone is found continuing to talk, they will be dealt with by military law tonight."

Just when someone was about to answer, the voice of a conscription officer came from a distance. This guy looked like a black-faced god, with blood flowing from his braid. I don't know which unlucky guy had just been beaten by him.

From morning till now, at least a dozen people have been whipped. There are barbs on the edges of this whip, and one whip will tear your skin and flesh. If you are whipped several times in a row, you may even lose your life.

There are all kinds of mosquitoes in the desert at night, and these mosquitoes all come here following the smell of blood. If you don't stay away from them, these mosquitoes alone can bite you to death. It will take at most three or four days, and you might lose your life here.

The black-faced god must understand all of this. After all, he has been in the army for a long time. The reason he does this even though he knows it is to give everyone a warning and let you all understand that if you violate the orders from above, you will be given a wound on your body and these mosquitoes will send you to Allah.

For the whole night, Sambik sometimes fell asleep and sometimes woke up suddenly. There was no time more uncomfortable than this night. He wanted to know what would happen in the morning, but he didn't want to think about the morning, because at least he could sleep now. When the morning came, they didn't know where the future was, and their fate would be completely handed over to others. (End of this chapter)
