In a certain university, news of military recruitment made the whole school uneasy.
In a dormitory, several students were talking late at night.
"Thirty million, Lao Wang, do you think we can collect it all?"
"I don't know. I think there are too many people. If it is one million, it should be possible."
"How many young people are there in our country now, about 600 million? After removing some who are in poor health or other conditions, how many are there? We also need to remove those women and women who are not suitable for the battlefield, and the remaining people will be even more Less, I need to find 30 million of them, I think..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted, "I think it's okay!"
The person who spoke was a roommate in the upper bunk. He was the top student in the dormitory, Zeng Weihao. He usually has the least communication with his roommates because he is always busy studying. Every day he is in the classroom, study room, dormitory and canteen, four o'clock and one line.
In everyone's impression, he is relatively quiet and even a bit honest.
"Xueba, what do you think?" everyone asked.
Zeng Weihao sat up. In the darkness, he spoke firmly and said, "I don't know what others will do, but I want to join the army!"
"What?" The roommates were shocked and asked, "Xueba, you want to join the army?"
"Isn't your ambition to go to graduate school, then get a Ph.D., and finally become a university professor?"
"Yes, you have passed the postgraduate examination, right?"
"That was my previous ambition!" Zeng Weihao said, "Now is the era of disaster, the Zerg invasion, and the entire human civilization is crumbling!"
"Going to the army at this time can play a greater role than in school! My idol is Dr. He Xingzhou He. He also studies knowledge, but he is also on the front line!"
"In this battle to defend the Magic City, would the Magic City be able to defend it without him? So I also want to take a look at him. I want to give up my writing and join the army!"
"666!"
"Nice, to be honest, Zeng Weihao, I used to think you were quite pretentious. You just relied on your good studies to stay with us. Now I'm convinced, you are really awesome!"
"I don't have your courage, but I'm rooting for you!"
"I want to go too, but I'm worried that my parents won't agree." A roommate said. Unlike Zeng Weihao, he became addicted to games and often skipped classes after he entered college.
If this continues, successful graduation will be a problem.
"Hong Xu, do you want to go too?"
"You stay up late every day and your body is so weak. Can you do it?"
Hong Xu said: "Although I am weak, I am young and I will make up for it quickly!"
"I thought very clearly. If I go to the army, not only to serve the country, but I might also be able to make a contribution and stand out."
"It is written like this in history books. Heroes emerge from troubled times. If a person like me follows the rules step by step, he will probably be a social beast and may not even be able to get a wife. If you give it a try, there is still a chance! To tell you the truth , I played the "Zerg Scourge" VR game very well, if I were allowed to really control the mechanical exoskeleton and armor, maybe I would still be a master!"
"I'll go, what you said makes sense! If you want to be rich, don't forget each other!"
"As long as you have the courage!" Zeng Weihao said, "If you are sure, I will sign up with you!"
"Okay, I'll call my parents early tomorrow morning! Even if they don't let me go, I will go!" Hong Xu said.
…
South, a certain village.
In the village ancestral hall, the clan leader Liu Jiren was leading a group of clan members with the same surname to offer incense and worship their ancestors.
Behind him are ten young people from the clan and people with the same surname.
"The ancestors of the Liu family are here. Today, I, Liu Jiren, will lead the whole clan to worship our ancestors."
"Now that the Zerg invades, the whole country is in danger. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country! Today, we have ten aspiring young people from the Liu family who are willing to join the army to serve the country. I would like to report to our ancestors and hope that the spirits of our ancestors in heaven will protect them and bring honor to our Liu family. , defend the security of the country!"
Everyone worshiped together, and then the parents of ten young people who wanted to join the army lectured them.
"Remember, we don't need you to be filial to us. We just need you to kill a few more Zerg and move forward bravely. Don't forget the blood flowing in your bones!"
Liu Jiren handed each person a flag with the four words "Serve the Country with Loyalty" written on it.
He said: "If you join the army, your family and clan will take care of you. If you die in battle, your relatives and clan will take care of you. This flag is given to you. If you die in battle, wrap yourself in the flag! The loyal soul will be sent to the ancestral hall and the descendants will worship it. !”
"I hope you can return victorious!"
"We remember it!" Ten young people took the flag and put it in their backpacks.
…
In Shu, when the news of military conscription came, every household was discussing it.
"With an increase of 30 million people, how can we, the Shu people, not be there?"
"Back then, our ancestors shed their blood thousands of miles across the country, and now we, the descendants, can't embarrass them!"
"If I were 30 years younger, I would also sign up!" an old man said regretfully.
"Wife. I...I was wrong." In a family, husband Huang Shengzheng apologized hesitantly to his wife Tian Yuqin.
He accidentally angered his wife just now. According to normal circumstances, the two of them would definitely have a fight.
But today, Tian Yuqin was unusually silent.
"Honey, are you still angry? I'll cook for you!" Huang Sheng was about to cook when Tian Yuqin grabbed him. She asked, "I heard the phone call you just made to your dad. Do you want to Going to join the army?"
"Honey, I..." Huang Sheng didn't know how to explain. He had only been married to Tian Yuqin for a year, his life had just stabilized, and he was planning to have a child.
If he joins the army, what will Tian Yuqin do?
"Wife." Huang Sheng explained patiently, "Although we are in Shu, we are safer than those coastal places."
"But didn't you listen to Dr. He? It's only a matter of time before Zerg genes contaminate terrestrial life. Besides, even if we can hold on, can other countries?"
"When the Zerg invades in large numbers, there will be no safe place in the world. As a man, if I don't go, will I have to let my wife and children face those monsters?"
Tian Yuqin raised her head, her eyes were red, hugged him and said, "I understand the truth, but I can't let you go!"
"Don't worry." Huang Sheng comforted, "Now that technology is so advanced, our equipment has been upgraded, so it won't be so dangerous!"
"I'm lucky! I fell into the water when I was a child and was rescued!"
"If I stop you, am I just ignorant?" Tian Yuqin asked.
"No, this shows that we have a deep relationship." Huang Sheng said.
Tian Yuqin whispered: "Husband, I won't stop you. I also know that in a country, someone must stand up. I just hope you can protect yourself, and I will wait for your safe return!"
…
"Brother, I also want to join the army!" He Xingzhou received a call from He Mengyao, "My parents will definitely disagree, will you support me?"
He Xingzhou said helplessly: "You haven't finished reading the book yet, so you should study honestly first."
"I will graduate next year!" He Mengyao said, "And I am studying artificial intelligence technology, so I will definitely be able to help."
"You can join the army, but you have to wait for a while." He Xingzhou said. The reason why he did not refuse was because he knew that this was inevitable.
It is only a matter of time before the Zerg take over the world. An additional 30 million people are just a current requirement. If the war expands to the world in the future, it is not impossible for all the people to be soldiers.
Her sister is also a talented researcher and can work in the Academy of Military Sciences.
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news!" He Mengyao said happily.
…
The next day, early in the morning, all recruitment portals on the Internet and recruitment points in the city were opened.
North, a certain city.
At a recruitment point, before the comrade in charge arrived, he found that there were already two long queues here.
There were men and women, including young boys who looked young and had just grown up; there were also uncles with unshaven beards and a weathered look on their faces; there were also some lesbians standing in line among them.
They were in order, without a trace of chaos or noise, and they were all waiting.
Several jeeps drove up and the recruiting staff arrived.
"So many people?" They themselves were shocked. Looking at the queue, the queue turned several corners!
An aunt passing by asked: "Young man, what are you doing here? Are eggs distributed here?"
She was a little moved and wanted to line up.
"We are here to register for the army, and this is the registration office!" they replied.
"Sign up to join the army?" Upon hearing this word, the aunt was in awe and said, "They are all good boys and girls."
"Have you had breakfast? Come on, eat these!" She put the breakfast she had just bought for her grandson into their hands.
"Auntie, here we are..." The young man was about to refuse, but the auntie had already left and said, "There are so many people, so I'm going to call some of the stall owners selling breakfast. Today, auntie will treat you to free breakfast!"
"You fill out the registration form first, and then come here for a physical examination!" At this time, the staff at the registration office were ready and shouted with a loudspeaker.
"Come one by one!"
Applicants entered the room one after another. The requirements for the physical examination this time were not as strict as before, because 30 million people have to be recruited, and it is impossible for everyone to be strong and strong. The same is true for entering the army and retraining.
And now that technology is advanced, various auxiliary equipment are available, such as AI tactical glasses, mechanical exoskeletons, etc., which can directly allow ordinary soldiers to have abilities beyond the limits of the human body!
Similar scenes occurred across the country.
In the online registration portal, the number of applicants has also been increasing.
Ten minutes after the registration portal opened, the number of applicants exceeded one million!
Anyone who wants to sign up must go through identity verification, which means that these people all meet the identity verification requirements!
And by 12 noon, it showed that the number of online registrations had exceeded 5 million!
This figure shocked Xuanwu executives. Five million in twelve hours. This is not selling smart products, nor is it launching a new game!
Instead, it allows people to go to the battlefield with real weapons and face terrifying alien creatures! It’s a miracle that so many people still sign up!
In the next few days, people all over the country signed up to join the army to fight against the Zerg.
On the seventh day, it was just one week old.
The data records in the background show that 30 million people have passed the preliminary review! Next, they will have to go through simple training and assessment, eliminate some people, and add some people, and that will all happen later.
Now, 30 million people have been recruited!
He Xingzhou posted a message on social networks: "Thank you for everyone's active participation. Now we have recruited 30 million people and have temporarily stopped recruiting. The rest who have not been admitted can choose to sign up for the preparatory camp, which will be held at any time. Supplements the formal camp.”
"One inch of blood per mountain, one hundred thousand young people and one hundred thousand soldiers! Now we have 30 million passionate young people. Gentlemen, let us work together to resist the Zerg and defend thousands of miles of rivers and mountains!"
People were excited when they saw his words: "It's filled up so quickly! It's amazing!"
"I've signed up too! @planetbuilder, a decade-old fan, can I apply for a mechanical exoskeleton?"
"Well done, this is my Chinese youth!"
"Although I can't go to the battlefield, I am willing to donate 100,000 yuan!"
"I will be an adult next year, so I will sign up again next year!"
"Buddha bless you, and I wish you all peace and safety!"
…
China announced the recruitment of 30 million people, and completed the task ahead of schedule, recruiting all the people within a week, which once again made the whole world look at it with admiration!
"Thirty million people, in just one week? This is simply a miracle!"
"Why are they all going? Aren't they afraid of the Zerg?"
"I said before that they must be dissatisfied with their recruitment, but now I have to admit that I was wrong. Maybe I had a big misunderstanding of them. This country is amazing!"
“We are also recruiting people here, and we will pay you as long as you sign up, but there are still not many people signing up.”
"In comparison, our place is already in chaos, with Zerg hurting people happening every day. I decided to go to China, which is the safest place in the world now!"
…
Those high-level officials were also alarmed by this. Not only China, but also the whole world were expanding their forces in order to resist the Zerg, but no place could be so exaggerated, recruiting 30 million people at a time!
Even Sakura and Goryeo, who had just been attacked by the Zerg, were like this. In desperation, they could only adopt a compulsory system and require corresponding personnel to report.
…
He Xingzhou once again devoted himself to the research and development of nuclear batteries. During this time, more and more insect nests were discovered in the world, and there were already more than ten!
And these bugs also began to attack various areas, and many places were attacked.
Those with strong military strength can still resist for a while, but those with weak military capabilities have suffered heavy losses. Some small islands have even announced that they are preparing to relocate the entire country.
In order to deal with this crisis for all mankind, all parts of the world announced the establishment of a new organization - the Blue Star Human Defense Alliance, referred to as the Blue Star Alliance.
All places can't wait to join the Blue Star Alliance, because they know very well that if they don't join such an organization at the end of the world, a dead end awaits them.
The Blue Star Alliance will share Zerg intelligence and information, and members will support and help each other.
Alliance matters are decided by commanders at all levels and are divided into three levels.
The third-level commanders make decisions about matters related to their own location, the second-level commanders can mobilize resources in nearby areas, and the first-level commanders can participate in global defense deployments in very small numbers.
Xuanwu executive officers are all first-level commanders, including He Xingzhou.
The Blue Star Alliance has just been established, and a big event has happened.
According to intelligence, a scientific research organization discovered that a terrestrial insect nest was suspected to have been discovered on an uninhabited volcano in the Pacific!
This insect nest is very hidden, hidden at the bottom of the crater. Because it is uninhabited and has little scientific research value, it has never been discovered.
This time, it was only because of the global investigation of Zerg that a scientific research organization discovered it.
Its appearance alarmed the Blue Star Alliance! With all the terrestrial insect nests appearing, wouldn’t there be many terrestrial insect species that directly threaten humans? Especially countries around the Pacific, including China, attach great importance to this!
