Chapter 291 Recruitment (Subscription Request)
Ryosuke was not surprised by such a scene, but rather... it was natural.
Rebellion is not such an easy thing.
No matter the world, in the history he knew, there were many peasant uprisings, most of which did not have a good result.
The reason was that the management was poor and people's hearts were scattered.
The dragon slayer will eventually become a dragon. People's empathy is very weak, especially those who were born in poverty and suddenly have everything. It is difficult for them to distribute their "hard-earned" wealth to other poor people.
Their ideas are very simple.
"I earned my money by working hard. If I am caught, I will be beheaded. Why should I share it with others?"
From a personal perspective, this is indeed natural.
A life has been lost, and even the nine clans may be killed. Taking some money is really nothing. It is just the share that should be obtained.
But from the perspective of a rebel, from the perspective of the rebel group, this matter is undoubtedly a slap in the face and self-destructive.
If you can't abide by the rules you set and the slogans you shouted, how can you restrain others and save the country?
"A mob."
Ryosuke spoke slowly.
Even if this group of people can finally take over the imperial capital, it will not be easy to establish a thriving new country with such chaotic management.
At least... these scum who took advantage of the chaos in the country and bullied the people together with the ministers must be eliminated.
"Yes, it is indeed a mob."
Hyuga Hizashi's voice of approval came from the microphone, "But... there are quite a few capable people in this mob."
"Most of these people are former civil and military officials who can't stand the oppression of the ministers' factions and can only become bandits."
"The attitude of the head of the family is to plan to instigate useful talents in the rebel army."
Ryosuke certainly would not object to their arrangement, "What are you going to do?"
Among the rebels, let alone others, just say that the night raid and others who originally planned to rescue themselves in the imperial capital that day, each one is a talent worth recruiting.
Among these people, there are talents responsible for close combat, long-range, reconnaissance, assistance and support... They also have their own ambitions. After experiencing many complicated pasts, they will not be as confused as ordinary people, and their hearts are very firm.
If they can be brought into the family, they will undoubtedly become a powerful team in the family.
"We plan to expose those who fish in troubled waters in the rebel army and make them chaotic."
Hinata Hiashi quickly replied, "Those people have their own goals and want to save the country, so they joined the rebel army."
"But if the rebel army is not the same as before, their choice may be shaken. At that time... we are very confident to recruit them."
"Okay, but don't do this secretly."
Ryosuke nodded, "I suggest you openly speak out these termites in the rebel army, and then recruit them openly."
"The strong men who have grown up have their own persistence. If you rely on conspiracy to recruit them, it's okay if they are not discovered. Once they are discovered in the future... , it is inevitable to kill and solve the hidden dangers, which is not worth it. "After a pause, he spoke again in a deep voice, "Talent, although it is important, it is not theirs. We Hyuga should have a sense of pride, which is related to the clear distinction between upper and lower classes that I emphasized before. " "We only need to show an attitude of appreciation for them, and the specific right of choice is left to them. " "If they are willing to choose us Hyuga, then give them a corresponding and appropriate position, so that they have the opportunity to show their abilities and win the hearts of the people with their merits and contributions. " "But if they are unwilling, we will not force them. " "Talent, we also have the ability to cultivate it ourselves. " "Although people like Akahime and Leona can be said to be the sons of destiny in this world, they have great luck. Even if Ryosuke cannot see the fate of people in this world, he can still know the killer gangs in the imperial capital, and everyone in the night raid is a rare talent in the resistance army. But... it has not reached the level that can make Hyuga visit three times. It is already a good treatment to be able to issue an invitation. This is not to look down on people, but Hyuga must set a strict class level. First, it is to cultivate a sense of collective honor.
Second, it must be supported by merit and contribution to convince the public.
There are many capable people in the world, but not everyone who comes can be given a high position directly.
If so, those who follow Hinata diligently but have no ability will inevitably feel resentful.
But it’s okay to feel resentful, but I’m afraid that they will incite others and mess up the family. After all, people without ability usually occupy the majority.
So... only strict rules can shut up those who are incapable of sitting in high positions, even if they feel resentful, it’s useless.
Although it’s essentially the competent who get the job, the process and the result are completely different.
Almost without hesitation, Hinata Hizashi began to sort out what Ryosuke said the moment he hung up the phone, and held a meeting among the senior military officials to facilitate the statistical report to the family next month.
When there is something to do, time always passes quickly.
Three months passed quickly,
In the empire, those rebels who secretly accumulated strength were exposed one by one by Hyuga, but... they did not want to unite or annex other rebel forces, but openly became enemies with these rebel forces who claimed to be rebellious and save the country, but actually oppressed the people.
One crime after another was made public, and witnesses personally explained that those rebel forces did not have as huge a foundation as the empire, but the evil deeds they did were no less than the crimes of the empire.
Bang!
Near the imperial capital, night attack on the headquarters.
Leone slapped the newspapers in her hand one after another on the table, and looked at Najeta who was silent on the main seat, "How could they do such a thing?! We are working hard on the front line, and they are dragging their feet in the back?"
"Each one is more greedy than the other! A bunch of trash, scum!"
"Boss, what should we do now? Should we continue the operation in the imperial capital?"
When killing people, she did not waver, when robbing wealthy businessmen and nobles, she did not waver, and even when helping her companions collect corpses, she did not waver.
But at this moment, facing these newspapers, facing the contents in black and white on them, she could not suppress the emotions that surged in her heart, and she was confused and angry to the point of driving people crazy.
This feeling is like she has achieved her life goals, but when she looks back, she suddenly realizes that nothing has changed because of her.
It's just... a new batch of termites.
"No wonder they looked at me with disgust when I went to get something from the food supplier in the morning. No one spoke to me the whole time. They just threw the bags of food to me like throwing away garbage."
Brand folded his arms and leaned against the wall, not knowing what to say.
They were responsible for the frontline work at night, and the supplies such as food, weapons, etc. were basically supplied by someone.
And these people were often the poor people oppressed by the empire. After being rescued by the rebels, they secretly hoarded goods for the uprising.
In the past, every time he went to get something, he could always get encouragement and support from these people, and even invite him to stay for a meal, but now...
The atmosphere in the room was a little quiet, and no one spoke again.
Even Najeta, who had always been the backbone of the crowd and could deal with anything lightly, didn't know what path to choose.
Is it to ignore everything reported in the newspaper and continue the so-called decapitation operation to help the poor people near the imperial capital, or...pack up and leave?
Do you want to continue to follow the rebels behind and become the big tree for those new termites?
"Knock, knock, knock."
At this moment, the door of the house was suddenly knocked.
Almost immediately, everyone reached for the weapons beside them, and figures rushed out of the room, came to the door, and stared at the position of the door handle.
This is the headquarters of the night raid. Only the night raiders know the location of this place, and even no one in the resistance army knows it.
"Maybe... a hunter who went up the mountain to hunt?"
Rabbock pulled the silk thread in his hand.
No one said anything. At this time, such a thing happened in the empire again. No one knew who would knock on the door outside.
"I'll go open the door."
Just when everyone was staring at the door with some vigilance, Akatsuki's voice sounded so calm that it seemed to have no emotion.
Then, with an attitude completely different from others, she walked directly through the aisle and came to the door with Murasame in her hand.
"Wait..."
Najeta originally wanted her to wait.
"You are willing to fight!"
But Akatsuki had already opened the door directly, and even swung a knife directly.
Ding——
A crisp metal collision sounded.
Akahime's bright eyes stared at the boy in front of her who was about the same height as her and had brown hair.
"Are you Akahime?"
The brown-haired boy used the blade to block the knife that was coming straight at him.
"Yes."
Akaahime spoke briefly, but did not intend to put away the knife.
"Retreat, Akahime."
Najeta took a step forward and saw the situation outside clearly from the gap between the two people fighting.
There were not many people, only three.
It seemed that these three people were not weak, but they did not seem to be enemies.
Although Akahime looked ruthless and didn't talk much, she listened to Najta's words very much. After slightly turning her eyes to the man and woman behind the brown-haired boy, she slowly turned her eyes back and jumped back to the night raiders.
"Who are you?"
Najeta looked at the brown-haired boy who also put away the knife.
"I am from the Hyuga reserve force, captain of the third detachment, Tatsumi."
The brown-haired boy raised his head and introduced himself, "The two people next to me are my companions, Iyeas and Sau."
"Are you from Hyuga?"
Najeta half-squinted her eyes and looked at Tatsumi.
I didn't expect that the Hyuga people knew so much about their night raid, and even... from what they said just now, they also knew the members of their night raid.
"No, no, no, my contribution is not enough for me to become a member of the Hyuga, we are just reserve personnel." Tatsumi shook his head, "I came here this time because I received an order from the clan, and I came here to pass on a message to you all."
As he spoke, he glanced at the people in the room, and finally turned his gaze to Nadezhda again, "Although everyone present here is under the name of a killer organization, in fact, the Hyuga side knows very well that you are all righteous people who are dissatisfied with the corruption of the empire and want to rise up in resistance."
"But unfortunately, you all seem to have put your trust in the wrong people before. The resistance army you joined is not reliable. There are many contradictions within it, and it has caused a lot of trouble. I believe you should also know it."
Main looked at Tatsumi angrily, "Aren't those things exposed by your Hyuga people?"
"I emphasize again that I am not a member of Hyuga yet."
Tatsumi looked at Main very seriously, as if this point is very important.
Then, he continued, "Yes, those things were revealed to the world by Hinata."
"Those things revealed by Hinata are all true things that happened inside the rebel army. They didn't make up stories."
"It's enough for a country to have a rebel uprising team. Besides, the rebel army you joined is not an uprising team. Maybe it was at the beginning, but later it has gradually evolved into a vicious tiger compared with the empire."
"We will naturally understand these."
Najeta looked directly at Tatsumi, "Then... please tell me your intention."
"Hinata wants to recruit all members of your night raid."
Tatsumi was no longer vague.
Najeta: "."
The atmosphere was quiet for a while.
Tatsumi spoke again, "I have brought the message, so... I should go to perform my mission."
After that, he was about to turn around and leave.
"Wait!"
Najeta was a little confused, "You said Hinata wants to recruit us? Then what? Is it just this sentence?"
Her tone was a little strange, and the other people beside her were the same.
Tatsumi stopped and nodded, "That's all. I was just passing on a message while I was on the mission."
The atmosphere quieted down again.
The rest of the Night Raid team didn't speak, and turned their eyes to Najeta who was at the front.
And Najeta hesitated for a moment, "Then...about how we are placed, and what tasks we need to do in the future, and what kind of positions and treatment we will be given after the uprising is over..."
The Night Raid team was a little surprised.
They didn't expect their boss to change his mind so quickly.
This sentence basically determined his thoughts.
"The adults in charge of the handover in Hyuga didn't mention it."
Tatsumi said regretfully, "But as far as I know, you should be assigned to various military camps and become reservists like me."
"Reserves? That's just a small soldier, you are..."
Leone was a little annoyed, and just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Najeta.
"This... Captain of the Reserve Force, I would like to ask, do other imperial officials who have turned from evil to good and joined the uprising army also need to start from the reserve force? How about you, how many years have you been in the reserve force?"
She asked in detail.
"It's the same for everyone. The promotion and screening methods within Hyuga are extremely strict." Tatsumi nodded, "Only those who are truly capable can become a member of Hyuga, and those who can only talk on paper have no chance to climb up."
"But... from the neatness of your actions just now, you should not be those who can only talk. I have joined the uprising for a year, and you are the first group of members who were actively invited by Hyuga. Maybe you will not necessarily start from the reserve force."
