Since the war was still going on, no matter how peaceful people's lives seemed, it was impossible not to notice signs of it.
In fact, whether it was Tongcheng, Linshui, or even Chang'an, one could see recruitment offices filled with crowds of people.
These publicly announced recruitment centers were each overwhelmed with people gathered there, voluntarily joining the Troops as "idlers".
The officers in charge of reviewing applicants sat with looks of helplessness, for the number of young people arriving there prepared to fight for their country was too many to handle every day.
On hearing of various countries declaring war on Great Tang, the Tang People became enraged! The good life they had worked so hard for couldn't be given up easily, and they were ready to fight anyone who tried to take it away!
Thus, on the day the war erupted, despite the pouring rain, countless people rushed to the recruitment centers, expressing their wish to fight for His Majesty the King.
