"It's okay if you don't pay. The imperial court is employing people now. Those who don't want to go to the rear seem to want to serve the imperial court. I will place those who don't pay at the front and give you a way to get ahead.
Chance!"
The captain's sinister face showed a ferocious smile.
This is a complete threat. If anyone doesn't pay, he will really be sent to the frontline battlefield.
What will happen if we really get to the battlefield?
Many people's faces already showed panic expressions.
"One million is too much."
"Sir, can you please be accommodating? A little less would be fine."
Some people have begun to plead hard. For ordinary people, one million is still an astronomical number.
The captain's eyes widened and he cursed loudly: "Don't be so shameless. This is the favor I asked for from you!"
This captain can be regarded as a man who has been on the battlefield for many years, and he has a dignified evil aura about him.
At this moment, he shouted angrily, which immediately shocked many people.
The rest of the people immediately did not dare to speak. Some people from better families had already taken the lead in taking out their banknotes and respectfully handed them to the captain.
"Not bad! Not bad! All your money will be used to fight against the Tang army." A satisfied smile appeared on the captain's face.
The person who paid the money was immediately taken away by the sergeant next to him and kept away from this place.
When other people saw it, they had envious expressions on their faces.
"One million. If I take this out, I'm afraid it will wipe out all my wealth."
"It's better to pay. You will definitely die if you go to the battlefield."
Some people gritted their teeth, collected the money, and handed it over.
But even so, there are only a few people who can pay. There are still tens of thousands of people present, and they simply cannot afford so much money.
Lu Yu watched all this and did not pay any money.
He looked at the sergeant next to him and asked coldly: "Aren't you afraid that someone will take care of you if you openly ask for money?"
The captain raised his eyebrows and looked Lu Yu up and down: "It's none of your business. Don't bring trouble to yourself. You can take the money or not!"
"So what if I don't give you money!" Lu Yu said lightly.
"Okay! If you have the guts, don't kneel down and beg me when the time comes."
The captain looked at Lu Yu, then at the group of people standing behind Lu Yu, and sneered: "I'll give you a chance to make contributions to the imperial court. Today, you will be responsible for guarding the camp gate."
Everyone was suddenly in an uproar.
Many people's faces showed expressions of despair.
Here, it is safest to stay inside the camp.
Once they go out, they are likely to encounter the Tang Army, and it will definitely be a dead end for them.
"Sir, we are just new recruits. It is against the rules to be placed outside when we first arrive here!" someone shouted.
As soon as the man finished speaking, he was suddenly slapped in the face. His whole body spun around in mid-air and fell hard to the ground.
The captain pinched his waist with both hands and said majestically: "Where does all this nonsense come from? Anyone who dares to disobey will be subject to military law!"
The person who had just shouted was beaten so hard that he vomited blood and even a few teeth flew out.
When other people saw this scene, they were extremely frightened and did not dare to step forward.
"Hmph! A bunch of trash!"
The captain was very proud and was about to continue his scolding.
But at this moment, a loud "rumbling" sound suddenly came from the distance.
A spiritual stone cannon pierced the void in an instant and fell directly in front of the camp gate. The hundreds of people standing there were instantly wiped out and evaporated.
