Chapter 279 Gathering at Inazuma City
In recent times, for ordinary people in Inazuma, peaceful life continues, except for the selection and conscription orders that were suddenly issued and quickly spread to all parts of Inazuma.
But some people don't think so.
For ordinary wandering warriors, a life of luxury is what they yearn for.
For the group of people who possess the Eye of God, the legal ownership of the Eye of God is what they care about most.
Even if the shogunate is so shady and wants to change its orders every day, it will not be too early to issue something like this.
Many warriors think very simply, whether it is fine clothes and delicious food or the legal ownership of the Eye of God, I will enjoy them first anyway.
When the law changes again, I can just slip away and be done with it. At worst, I can just go back to my previous life and give back all the benefits I've gained.
Although this kind of "live for today" mentality is problematic, it is more in line with the thinking of those wandering warriors.
And precisely because of this selection and conscription order, various forces are somewhat uneasy.
"Linghua, what exactly does this recruitment order mean? Could it be that the front line needs some powerful warriors to fight?"
“That’s not how it works.”
Kamisato Ayaka shook her head: "It is clearly stated above that as long as you can be naturalized and behave yourself, you can enjoy a better life without any other additional requirements."
Thomas was a little dissatisfied: "What's the big deal? All they need is an attitude, and then they can enjoy a much better life than ordinary people ?"
"What will the people of Inazuma think?"
"Someone asked the Kanjo Bugyo and the Sha Bugyo about this, but the Tenryo Bugyo rejected it."
"Because if those people really accepted this conscription order, what they would hand over is their military force, which can also be considered as their most precious thing. This is what Tianling Fengxing said."
"How ridiculous! Practicing martial arts is not meant for them to harm others. Did the people in Tianling deliberately not mention this?"
"That's the truth, Thomas. The conscription order has been issued. In the long run, it will be very beneficial to Inazuma's rule."
Kamisato Ayaka explained: "The reason why the Kanjo Bugyo supports this is that they want to reconnect the business networks in various parts of Inazuma, which will also reduce some financial pressure."
"And our club adheres to this. To be honest, I don't know what Big Brother is thinking, or who is giving him the instructions."
"Mr. Ayato... received instructions?"
"I don't know. According to the original political structure, the Shebuxing would not have been involved in this conscription order. However, this time, the Tianlingbuxing took the initiative to take the lead and dragged us all in."
Kamisato Ayaka frowned: "There must be something fishy going on here, so we should agree to it first, and then prepare various policies and materials needed for contingency. It is safest to make preparations for both scenarios."
Thomas understood. In a sense, the Society Magistrate was being coerced. The Tenryo Magistrate was pushing it, and the Kandeok Magistrate could also benefit from it. Two of the Three Magistrates had already agreed to this resolution.
They brought the shrine magistrates together to negotiate, and the final decision was made by the shogunate. They did not want the two families to suffer if the decision went wrong, and then the shrine magistrates would profit alone.
The shogunate may have also considered this issue and was worried that there would be a certain shift in the power structure, so they included the shrine bugyo.
"It's really interesting, but what is the warrior named Long Hai Xuan Ze from last time doing now?"
"I'm not sure, but after returning from Narukami Taisha last time, he has been locking himself in the gym. Usually, only those who have made friends with him can enter."
"As for Jing Lianghuili, that guy has been recognized by the ruling party and officially possesses the Eye of God. It seems that he has been pulled by the Tenryo Bugyo for internal training. It seems that they want to reuse him."
"Oh? If that's the case, can we win them over?"
"It's difficult. The people in the Tianling Bugyo know that such people are popular. There must be people responsible for monitoring them. And according to my inference, Jingliang Huili and Longhai Xuanze may have reached some kind of agreement."
"If we want him to work for our company, the guy from Longhai Dojo is definitely an obstacle we can't get around."
"Haha, the sudden changes seem to be due to the appearance of this Lord Long Hai."
Kamisato Ayaka opened her folding fan with a smile on her face.
"Tell me, why did a powerful samurai suddenly come to Inazuma Castle?"
"don't know."
Thomas shook his head, then smiled and said, "It can't be that he is trying to destabilize Inazuma's rule. Otherwise, why would a wandering samurai stay in Inazuma Castle instead of pursuing a path to power?"
Kamisato Ayaka was stunned for a moment, then she also laughed.
"What if, Thomas, your guess might be right?"
"How is that possible? With that person here, even an idiot wouldn't dare to mess around in Inazuma Castle. That blade that seemed like a divine punishment is the best warning in the Wuxiang Blade Gorge."
"Oh? How about making a bet?"
Kamisato Ayaka looked at her partner with a smile.
"Hey, are you serious, Linghua?"
Thomas was a little confused about what Kamisato Ayaka was thinking, but he instantly became excited when he heard the word "bet".
"A hot pot challenge! The loser needs to eat the ingredients designated by the winner!"
"It's decided!"
In the wild, a handsome white-haired guy that Gu Sanqiu had been thinking about was sitting on the hillside with his long sword next to him.
"I say, do you really want to go to Inazuma Castle? There's something fishy about these regulations and policies. There's no need to take the risk."
Manye said, "If you think about it, you should know. How could the people in the shogunate be so kind? Maybe if the number of samurai is about the same, the people in the shogunate will just close the door and kill us all."
"Even if we have the Eye of God, it will be very difficult to escape when facing a large army."
Although Manye is a wandering samurai, he is not a pure warrior. Naturally, he can see that there is a certain degree of malice in this selection and conscription order.
A man next to him with his arms folded and a weed in his mouth smiled and looked at the vague outline of Inazuma Castle in the distance.
"You don't understand. Even without this so-called decree, the possibility of wandering warriors finding a way out for themselves is too low, and is even decreasing."
"The front line is in a state of near truce, and the shogunate has more time to deal with the internal situation."
My friend put the weeds in the palm of his hand and let them blow away in the wind.
"If we continue this practice for about half a year, then, except for those bandits who have committed crimes, wandering warriors will almost disappear in the wild."
"Whether the shogunate wants to seduce a group of samurai to work for him, or to carry out assassination after a period of time to eliminate us unstable factors, we must go on this trip."
"Except for those who are blinded by profit, I believe that the warriors who are going there are already mentally prepared."
"We are not only fighting for ourselves, but also for freedom!"
Yujin-kun smiled at Manye: "Just like your God's Eye."
"For freedom like the wind!"
