At a certain university, news of military recruitment unsettled the entire school.

In one dorm room, a few students were having a late-night conversation.

“Thirty million, Wang, do you think they can enlist that many?”

“I don’t know, it seems like too many. If it were one million, it might be doable.”

“How many young people are there in our country now, approximately six hundred million? After excluding those who are not physically fit or have other conditions, how many are left? Then take out the women and those females who are not suitable for the battlefield, even fewer are left. From this group, finding thirty million, I think…”

He was interrupted before finishing, “I think it’s possible!”

The one speaking was a bunkmate, the scholar of the dorm, Zeng Weihao. Normally, he interacted the least with his roommates because he was always busy studying, moving between the classroom, study room, dormitory, and cafeteria, following a four-point routine.

In everyone’s impression, he was relatively quiet, even a bit unsophisticated.

“Scholar, what’s your take?” everyone asked.

Zeng Weihao sat up, his tone firm in the darkness, “I don’t know what others will do, but I want to enlist!”

“What?” His roommates were shocked and asked, “Scholar, you want to join the military?”

“Wasn’t your ambition to go to graduate school, then get a PhD, and finally become a university professor?”

“Yeah, didn’t you pass your graduate school exam?”

“That was my previous ambition!” Zeng Weihao said, “Now is the era of disaster, the Zerg are invading, and the entire human civilization is on the brink!”

“At this time, going to the military can play a greater role than staying in school! My idol is Dr. He Xingzhou, he is also a scholar, but he’s on the front line as well!”

“In this Shanghai defense battle, could Shanghai have been defended without him? So I too want to be like him, discard the pen for the sword, and enlist!”

“666!”

“Awesome, to be honest, Zeng Weihao, I used to think you were a bit pretentious, just relying on your good grades, and not mingling with us. Now I respect you, you’re truly awesome!”

“I don’t have your courage, but I’m cheering for you!”

“I also want to go, I’m worried my parents won’t agree.” A roommate said, unlike Zeng Weihao, he got into gaming after starting college and often skipped classes.

If this continued, graduating smoothly would be a problem.

“Hong Xu, you want to go too?”

“You’re up late every day, your health is so weak, can you handle it?”

Hong Xu said, “Although I’m weak, I’m young, aren’t I? I can quickly recover!”

“I’ve thought about it clearly, going to the military to serve the country not only allows me to make contributions, but maybe I could even establish some merit and make a name for myself.”

“History books all say this, heroes are born in chaotic times. For someone like me, if I follow the usual routine, I’d probably just be a corporate drone and might not even get a wife. Taking a chance, there’s still an opportunity! To be honest, I’m really good at that ‘Zerg Disaster’ VR game, if I could really control a mechanical exoskeleton and armor, I might be a master!”

“Wow, you make sense! If you become prosperous, don’t forget us!”

“Having the courage is enough!” Zeng Weihao said, “If you decide, I’ll sign up with you!”

“Okay, I’ll call my parents first thing in the morning! Even if they don’t let me go, I’m still going!” Hong Xu said.

…

In the south, at a certain village.

In the village ancestral hall, the clan leader Liu Jiren was leading a group of his clansmen to offer incense and pay respects to their ancestors.

Behind him were ten young men of the clan with other clansmen of the same surname.

“To the ancestors of the Liu family, today I, Liu Jiren, lead the whole clan to worship you.”

“Now, with the Zerg invasion, the whole nation is in danger. The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of every individual! Today, our Liu family has ten young people willing to join the army and serve the country. We specially report to the ancestors, hoping the ancestors’ spirits in heaven will protect them, let them bring glory to our Liu family, and defend the safety of the nation!”

Everyone bowed down together, and afterwards, the parents of the ten youths who were going to enlist admonished them.

“Remember, we don’t need you to fulfill your filial duty in front of us, we just need you to kill a few more Zerg, and charge forward fearlessly. Do not forget the blood that flows in your veins!”

Liu Jiren handed each of them a flag with the words “Loyalty and Patriotism” written on it.

He said, “When you enlist, your family and clan will take care of you. If you die in battle, your family and clan will provide for your kin. This flag is for you, if you die, wrap yourself with the flag! Your loyal soul will be sent to the ancestral hall for future generations to worship!”

“We hope you return in triumph!”

“We won’t forget!” The ten young men took the flags and put them in their backpacks.

…

In Shu State, when the recruitment news came, every household was discussing it.

“With thirty million recruits, how can we do it without people from Shu State?”

“Back then, our ancestors shed their blood over ten thousand miles of land, now we as their descendants can’t bring shame to them!”

“If I were thirty years younger, I would have signed up too!” An old man lamented.

“Honey, I… I was wrong.” In a household, the husband Huang Sheng was hesitantly apologizing to his wife Tian Yuqin.

He had accidentally angered his wife just now, and under usual circumstances, they would definitely have a fight.

But today, Tian Yuqin was unusually silent.

“Honey, are you still mad? I’ll cook for you!” Huang Sheng was about to cook, but Tian Yuqin stopped him and asked, “I heard you on the phone with your dad earlier, do you want to enlist?”

“Honey, I…” Huang Sheng didn’t know how to explain. He had only been married to Tian Yuqin for a year, their lives had just stabilized, and they were planning to have a child.

If he went to enlist, what would happen to Tian Yuqin?
