Chapter 72 Dynasty Military System
Border city block.
When he walked out of the lieutenant's house, a faint white floated up in the sky, and the night gradually dissipated, and a new day was about to usher in.
Li Yinchen looked at the hazy white sky, felt the chill in the early morning, and walked towards the yard where the wounded were treated.
"Captain, how about it? Did the old man say there will be any rewards in the future?" A young man with a bandage on his arm came over. He was wearing a white dress similar to Li Yinchen. His skin was pale and he was also a half-human and half-demon bloodline.
"Don't say the old man, that's Uncle Lin, who usually takes good care of us. Even if we shout, we should call him Lord Lin." He shook his head helplessly, and then asked with concern.
"Have you got better?"
"It's okay, it'll be fine if you have a few days of cultivation. You haven't answered me yet. Is there any reward?" This young man is in his early 20s and is a little impatient.
"Yes, I'll write you a sum and some money is given." As he said that, Li Yinchen took out more than ten silver rings from his arms and put them in his hand.
"First buy some delicious food and keep your body healthy. Don't leave the border these days."
"Well, thank you Brother Li." He counted the silver rings excitedly and then retreated.
Afterwards, Li Yinchen condolences to several other injured companions, gave them some money to nourish and treat, and then walked out of the city block.
The city gates are the place where the troops are garrisoned, so naturally there is no ordinary residence. He usually lives in a small town on the border, which was called "Youcen" that Lolan Hill passed before.
After returning to the town, he met many familiar neighbors on the way, and he also reached out to say hello.
"Is the Yinchen back?" An aunt sitting at the door to pick vegetables on the roadside saw it and asked.
"Yes, Aunt Liu." Li Yinchen stopped for the time being to respond.
"Long time no see you. How are you doing recently? It's very dangerous to patrol outside the border. Let Aunt see if you are injured?" She walked over.
"It's really okay." Li Yinchen shook his head. This aunt took care of him a lot when she was a child, so it was not surprising that she cared about such concern.
"It's fine." After getting closer, Aunt Liu looked at Li Yinchen carefully again.
"Yin Chen, you are almost thirty years old this year."
"Yes." A little bad thing floated in Li Yinchen's heart.
"It's time to start a family and start a business. If it's too late, no matter how late, there will be no girl who likes you."
"Look at you, you were so innocent when you were a child. Many girls around you liked you. Later, when you grew up, although everyone knows that you have different bloodlines, there are still a few people who are willing to marry you. But you are fine, and you ignore one. Later, they got married one by one, and now you are left alone..."
The aunt started nagging again. After all, in the eyes of the older generation, getting married is the most important thing. Although Li Yinchen is very majestic in the patrol team, he is a dangerous business after all. It is better to retreat first and change to another job.
"You, when will you save some money? It is also a good choice to settle down in the mainland. Uncle Wang's family moved to the city two years ago. I will go to their new home and beauties..." The aunt's words were not over.
"Ahem... Aunt Liu, I know, I'm saving money now." Li Yinchen had to interrupt and explain.
In fact, he had the intention of going to the mainland of the dynasty in his early years, but due to his bloodline, he suffered a lot of strange eyes and was relatively excluded, so he simply came back later.
Although there are very few people with half-human and half-demon blood in the mainland, they are common on this border. Because of their bloodline, they are less affected by the Nine Netherworld Qi in the mountains of the Sunset Mountains, and can walk all year round without damaging their bodies. Therefore, these people were also recruited by the local prefectures and set up a special night patrol team to deal with monsters and ghosts on the border.
After joining the night patrol team, the military will issue them exclusive "winter weapon", which is the slender cold moon sword that you carry with you, and a moon-white robe.
The long sword is a silver-level creation created by the Qipofang, a subordinate organization of the Winter Official. It has a special effect on killing souls and has a little purification effect. The moon-white robe also comes from the Qipofang, but this piece of clothing is average in protection and is more of a function to attract ghosts.
The wilderness is very wide, and even if you patrol, you may not encounter prey. Naturally, it is necessary to attract ghosts and monsters. This outfit plays this role and has a special atmosphere. Moreover, if it is white, even the night is more conspicuous, which is convenient for people to identify and seek help, and for those monsters to see.
Li Yinchen actually had a more complicated mentality about recruiting the border troops who were half-human and half-demon. On the one hand, he was grateful that such an institution could make his own force useful, receive a relatively generous salary, and gain some respect in small towns on the border.
But on the other hand, he actually understood very clearly that the Bianjun did not take them seriously, that is, they were just tools and consumables that could be abandoned at any time.
Those with special identities did not become naturalized in the army, and even casualties would not be reported. At most, they would give some money to comfort their families, and then there would be nothing else. But other naturalized soldiers are different, let’s talk about the “Xuan Bao Cavalry”.
These elite soldiers came from the military palaces in the mainland. Many of them were military households of generations. They usually worked as farmers and would be recruited by the dynasty when needed. Such military households were recorded locally. If they died in battle abroad, not only would the dynasty raise their families, but they would also be exempted from corvee and taxes.
If the man in the family dies and his wife and daughter are bullied in the hometown, other military households from the same towns and counties will also help, and local officials will take care of these honors on weekdays. This is the basic national policy of the dynasty. This is why the army's glory and combat effectiveness have been maintained all year round.
Otherwise, the 134 continents in the world, and the many dangerous and barbaric lands in the world would not be so peaceful.
Similarly, important officials in the court who led or served as officials usually recruited personal soldiers in their hometowns. Because of their interests, these fellow villagers are often extremely loyal and are the confidants of these generals and senior officials. The Xuanbao Cavalry is the personal army of the current provincial governor, so they are so arrogant.
After all, this is a world with extraordinary power. Without any force, even civil servants will be despised and bullied. However, as a dynasty, his own talent for cultivation may not be very high, and sometimes he does not have so much energy to practice. The existence of the personal army can solve this problem well.
The personal army who practices killing soldiers (war sequences) is often the best-equipped, most loyal and most willing to fight around the general. After resonating with the formation, they often have good combat power.
The founding king of the Porcelain Flower Dynasty had two personal troops around him, one of which was the "Red Crow Dragon Cavalry" and the other one was the "Calculus Hanging Flower".
On the battlefield, these personal troops charged into battle with the generals and served as officials in other places. These personal troops also protected the imperial officials from being killed by extraordinary people, and at the same time they could intimidate local sluts, so that these officials would not be left unattended and held hostage by local forces.
Li Yinchen put down the thoughts in his mind for a while, and after talking to the aunt next door, he was able to get out and return to his house.
"Oh... don't have to think too far away. Let's solve your personal problems first." He laughed at himself in the courtyard, and then relaxed.
Although it is very dangerous to patrol outside every night, it is very stable after returning to this town. After handing over so many evil ghosts this time, he not only received a rewarded salary, but also had a few days off. This is a blessing.
Thinking of this, Li Yinchen leaned on the lounge chair under the shade of the tree, looked at the Liuyun in the sky, and prepared to take a nap. After all, he didn't sleep all night, and when he returned home, he was a little tired.
The afternoon sunlight is half falling on you, half blocked by tender green leaves, sparse bird songs and vocals occasionally come from a distance, and the small yard also enters the quiet moment of the afternoon.
Dongdong--
Just as Li Yinchen was gradually falling asleep, a knock on the door suddenly came, and then a female voice rang out.
"May I ask, is this Li Yinchen's home?" There was a hint of official accent, as if it came from the distant mainland of the dynasty.
