Niu Da Niu Mantun has been in Houjin for almost a year. From the panic at the beginning, I have gradually adapted to the life of Houjin.

When Niu Mantun was first transferred to the Han army, he didn't think about it so much. He was just glad he was alive. But when he was given a sword, he felt that his identity seemed to be different from the others. At first, he thought he was going to be sent to the battlefield to fight, but it turned out that he was still a servant in the Han army. Any man can command him to turn around.

Niu Mantun's initial mission was to be ordered to clean up the battlefield. Just as he was working desperately and wanted to leave the battlefield as soon as possible, a Han army general stopped him. Niu Mantun had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, and his body shook involuntarily.

The officer of the Han army looked at his pale face and said, "I haven't been on the battlefield at first glance." See you blood today! After speaking, he took Niu Mantun and walked to the center of the battlefield. Niu Mantun also met a few people who were on the same team as him on the road, covering their faces and crying and walking back. This made him even more bottomless.

When they walked to the pile of corpses, the Han officer pointed to a man leaning on the pile of corpses, and said, "He's dying, you can make up for him!" ”

Now Niu Mantun's body trembled even more! He's never killed anyone in his life! The biggest thing he'd ever killed was a goose. He stared at the wounded Ming soldier, his hand on the hilt of his knife. This knife seems to weigh a thousand pounds, and it can't be pulled out.

The Ming soldier leaned against the pile of corpses in a rather strange position. He must have been hit by a heavy weapon. Occasionally, blood would spurt from his mouth with two coughs, and his chest was already stained. The Ming soldier was not very old, and he seemed to be a few years older than Niu Mantun. But looking at the calluses on his mouth, he should be a veteran.

Just when Niu Mantun's mind was still chaotic, he was hit hard in the back. It was the Han officer who smashed him in the back with a sheathed sword. Niu Mantun's painful body came to his senses, his body was smashed and he took a step forward, and his war knife was pulled out.

The officer slammed the cow's waist with the scabbard, and he involuntarily took two steps forward and stood in front of the Ming soldiers. The Ming soldier's attention had already been distracted, but he felt that someone had only opened his eyes to look at it when he was close. He should have known his results a long time ago, with peace on his face and eyes. He took a closer look at Niu Mantun with scattered eyes, as if he was recalling something.

The officer of the Han army urged: "Hurry up and give him a knife, either cut his neck or stab him in the chest!" There's still work to be done! You might as well poke it in the chest, it's easy, and he can keep a whole corpse. Hurry up! ”

This is to ask the recruits to mend the wounded of the enemy. This method is commonly used in the military. It can turn a person into a beast as quickly as possible. It is also the most effective way.

Niu Mantun trembled and put the tip of the knife on the chest of the Ming soldier, but he couldn't do it! The thin single clothes of the Ming soldiers are like a layer of iron armor, blocking the tip of the knife and not allowing an inch!

The Ming soldier also understood his fate at this time, he took a breath, and said hard but in a low voice: "Good brother, give it a good time!" Kind of a favor for me. ”

Niu Mantun trembled even more when he heard this. The officer of the Han army thought he was slow, and urged: "Hurry up! Hold the handle of the knife with both hands and press down harder! If you don't do it again, I'll cut you! ”

Hearing this, Niu Mantun's hands and feet seemed to regain some vitality. But he still can't pierce the blood-stained clothes! The Ming soldier couldn't say anything, and even his eyes were closed, I don't know if he didn't want to see Niu Mantun to increase the pressure on him, or if he had no strength at all?

Niu Mantun heard the sound of an officer drawing his knife out of its sheath behind his head. He suddenly panicked, holding the handle of the knife in both hands and pressing down hard, and a wave of resistance was transmitted to his hand. He had already pierced the chest of that Ming soldier! The body of the Ming soldier shook violently twice, and then stretched. He opened his mouth and said something. The Han officers did not hear clearly. Niu Mantun heard clearly.

What the soldiers of the Ming Army said was: "The way of this dog's day! ”

Niu Mantun withdrew the knife, he didn't know that he had shed tears. Just standing in front of the Ming soldier with a knife.

The Han officer withdrew his knife, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, there is always this thing to do when you are a soldier. Let's go back and pack up and get back to work. Don't forget to wipe the knife clean, or you'll be whipped. After saying that, he pushed Niu Mantun towards the way he came. Niu Mantun went back to work in a daze.

Niu Mantun carried the burden and followed the team to transport the collected things back to the camp. He didn't sober up until it was time to eat. He was given two loaves and a piece of horse meat. When fighting, both the Ming army and the Houjin will work hard to feed the people below, including labor. This time the battle was won, and countless food and equipment were seized. Therefore, he is willing to give food to the laborers, not to mention that Niu Mantun has the identity of the Han army. So this time he also got a piece of horse meat.

It's just that Niu Mantun is holding the cake and horse meat, and Niu Mantun feels that the bloody breath that has been coiling in his nasal cavity seems to have faded a little. He knew that there was no blood on his hands, but he still felt that his hands were bloody and pungent. But hunger reminds him that he really needs to eat. So Niu Mantun closed his eyes and ate everything, and then began to work again.

A few days later, he had been walking north with the brigade. Along the way, he watched as those who were not selected for the Han army were whipped, bullied, and even killed. It made him feel a little happy in his heart. I am glad that I was selected as the Han army. Don't worry about whether you'll survive or not. The mind gradually cleared up.

Eventually, the group was assigned by the officer to live in a small village, and he was given some food and farm tools. Two acres of wasteland and a fruit grove were also allocated. If you don't have a house, you have to build it yourself. The officer told him plainly that neither the orchard nor the land belonged to him. That's all Khan stuff. He just farmed for the Great Khan. There is a number of fruits and grains to be paid each year. If you don't pay enough, you will have to eat the whip! If it's serious, you'll be beheaded!

Niu Mantun hurriedly built a shack for himself and began to cultivate the land. In the first year, there was not much harvest in the wasteland, and I was afraid that I would go hungry after handing over the grain. But if you don't open up the wasteland, you will die, and you can only do it.

When Niu Mantun touched the hoe again, he remembered the old soldier's words: "This dog's way of the world." So Niu Mantun began to hoe the ground vigorously. At the same time, he said to himself, "Let's just go on like this." The way of the dog's day! ”
