Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower Chapter 333 - 333 333 Discussing Merits and Rewards
Chapter 333: Chapter 333 Discussing rits and Rewards Chapter 333: Chapter 333 Discussing rits and Rewards In Baiju Country, military rits were divided into 15 levels; ascending from an ordinary soldier to a First-Level Official would grant one qing of farmland, a residence, and a servant.
Being promoted to a Third-Level Doctor, in addition to the above rewards, also included one sheng of polished rice and half a sheng of soy sauce every month.
At the Sixth-Level Public Chariot, one could enjoy the use of an official chariot, and ascending to a Level Ten Junior Craftsman brought an official position, while a Fifteenth-Level Baron was the legendary rank of ennoblent and military commission, whose titles could even be inherited.
Based on the number of these eagles, if attributed to just one person, that person would imdiately be ennobled and given a military commission.
However, everyone knew this was unrealistic, as the cri of falsely reporting military rits was taken very seriously.
Therefore, La Man Uncle allocated the military rits for the 24 Man-eating Eagles evenly among all mbers of the group. Ironically, he and his two sworn brothers did not take credit for themselves.
Clearly, La Man was the leader of the group; Liu Shang braced himself for La Man to claim the rits for at least three Man-eating Eagles. However, he did not do so. Surprisingly, his na was not on the list of heroic eagle hunters that were brought forward.
“Why do you not take credit?” Liu Shang voiced his confusion.
“To be frank, being old and also using a crutch, how could I possibly tussle with a Man-eating Eagle? I dare not and cannot deceive the Great General,” La Man earnestly replied.
Liu Shang glanced at the seven hundred sick and disabled, and noticed that the nas on La Man’s list were almost all able-bodied individuals. Clearly, he had given his chance to those more likely to benefit.
Liu Shang was no fool and naturally understood La Man’s intentions.
Never had he thought that among these ruddy n there would still be soone so magnanimous. After glancing at La Man’s empty trouser leg, Liu Shang felt a tinge of regret.
“You have resolved a great concern of mine. I can grant you all one wish,” Liu Shang offered.
“If that is the case, I only ask that the General allow these impaired individuals to return ho,” La Man humbly requested.
As soon as La Man Uncle finished speaking, the surroundings fell into sudden silence.
Not just the craftsn but even ng Yi gasped in shock. Did this man realize what he was saying?
Although a truce was in place, it did not an that hostilities had ceased and even though they had risen from ruddy n to soldiers, without an Armor Removal Order, all soldiers were not allowed to leave military service and return to their fields.
Liu Shang’s expression grew increasingly solemn.
La Man Uncle calmly stated, “It is not that I am afraid of death and seek to avoid it, but these weak and disabled are no longer fit for battle. Even if they stay in the army camp, they will only consu the supplies.
Rather than that, it would be better to allocate their rations to the sturdier soldiers. With improved physical health and the weak removed from the ranks, what remains is an Elite Troop. After further training, this force can be directed towards great feats in no ti,” he explained.
Everyone held their breath in anticipation, waiting for Liu Shang’s decision.
After a long while, Liu Shang, who had been brooding, suddenly burst into hearty laughter and, stroking his beard, said, “Your suggestion is indeed good, and I shall consider it for a few days. Go and collect your rewards for now, and I shall let ng Yi inform you once I have made a decision.”
Liu Shang did not imdiately agree, which led to a slight disappointnt for La Man Uncle. However, such matters should not be rushed, so he could only bow and thank him: “Thank you, Great General, for your understanding. I have one more rather presumptuous request.”
“Speak,” Liu Shang responded, his face still amiable and pleasant, though his murky eyes darkened slightly.
“The movents of the Man-eating Eagles in Death Valley are unpredictable. I request the General’s approval for us to stay here. Although Death Valley is a barren land, we must not leave it unoccupied, lest the eagles act up again and potentially affect the Eastern Army,” he proposed.
As they had beco soldiers and even ascended to the rank of officials, they naturally needed to be reassigned to new quarters. However, there was no imdiate need to separate them, which led La Man Uncle to artfully request to stay under the guise of understanding the bigger picture.
This further request finally dispelled the gloom in Liu Shang’s eyes.
