Flowers bloom without worries

Chapter 203: Protecting the West Moon Kingdom (1)

Lan Xi and Xiao Chuhan knew that this battle was of great significance, and it was related to the survival of Xiyue Kingdom and the lives of the people. With just a few people, they could not resist the powerful offensive of the neighboring country. The most urgent task was to rush to the palace of Xiyue Kingdom immediately, summon the ministers of Xiyue Kingdom to discuss countermeasures, and understand the current military deployment of Xiyue Kingdom and the situation of both sides.

Xiao Chuhan made a prompt decision and sent Xingye back to Chu to dispatch reinforcements to support Xiyue. Seeing that the war was becoming increasingly urgent, Xiao Chuhan and Lanxi decided to split up. Lanxi was responsible for recruiting young and strong men in the city to join the army to defend Xiyue. Lanxi not only encouraged the people secretly, but also looked for those passionate men who actively participated in the war.

Unfortunately, for several days, there were only a few young men willing to enlist. Lan Xi's heart became heavier, but time was running out, so she could not rest for a moment. Looking at the ruined streets and the people who were suffering, Lan Xi was not discouraged, but continued to embark on the journey of finding brave soldiers without hesitation.

The streets of Xiyue Country were filled with tension and anxiety. The people were walking in a hurry and looked haggard. Lan Xi's eyes were eagerly moving among the crowd, looking for a young figure who could contribute to Xiyue Country. At this moment, Lan Xi's eyes were attracted by a tall and strong young man. The strong young man was carrying a load of firewood and preparing to sell it at the market. Lan Xi slowly walked to the man and said softly, "Brother, can we talk further?"

The man stared at Lan Xi in front of him for a moment, then put down the firewood on his shoulder.

"What's the matter with you?"

Lan Xi said gently: "The West Moon Country is in danger now, and the enemy is suppressing the people and making them suffer. I see that you are strong and heroic, and I think you are a man of justice. Now, our army needs passionate young people like you. Are you willing to join the army and fight against the foreign enemies with us?"

There was a hint of hesitation in the man's eyes. He was silent for a moment, looked down at his rough hands, and said in a low voice: "I still have elderly parents at home who need me to take care of them. If I join the army, what will happen to my parents?"

Lan Xi had thought about this problem, but the country is in trouble now. If everyone thinks this way, who would be willing to step forward and join the army?

"Brother, I know you are worried that no one will take care of your parents at home, but have you ever thought about it? If the country falls and their homes are destroyed, how can your parents live a stable life? Only if we fight against foreign enemies together and drive them away can thousands of families return to peace. On the day we win the battle, I'm sure your parents will be proud of your heroic behavior."

The man looked at Lan Xi's expectant eyes, which reminded him of the warm scenes when he was a child, playing with his friends in the fields and helping each other among neighbors. The once beautiful life was now being ruthlessly destroyed by the war. He could not choose to escape and choose temporary peace at this time.

"You are right. Every citizen has a share of responsibility for the fate of a country. I am willing to join the army and defend the West Moon Kingdom."

Lan Xi looked at the man in front of her and told him her concerns: "But going to the battlefield will definitely be difficult and dangerous. You must be mentally prepared and discuss it with your parents."

"I am not afraid of death. As long as I can serve the West Moon Nation, I am not afraid of anything. I still have many brothers. If I tell them, they will definitely come."

Lan Xi seemed to see hope. As expected, as long as you work hard, you will get the results you want.
