Tang Niu also had a few young people selected, and they had to accept Ye Hua's personal selection, and if they passed successfully, they would be able to enter the hussar guard. Even if you lose the election, you will have the opportunity to enter other forbidden armies.

In fact, since the end of the Tang Dynasty and the fifth dynasty, the image of military warriors has been greatly impacted.

In the Han and Tang dynasties, there was a strong martial style.

Even if you are a weak scholar, you have to carry a three-foot sword, fight at the border, and die without regrets.

Since the Two Song Dynasty, the literati have no urge to serve the country, and only the very vulgar love between men and women remains. The root cause of this is that it happened in the Five Dynasties period.

Wars are frequent, warriors kill everywhere, there are too many evils, and the common people are afraid and disgusted.

On the other hand, there was a shortage of soldiers in various places, so prisoners had to be filled into the army, and in order to prevent escape, they also made tattoos! On the faces of the soldiers, tattoos are imprinted with marks that can never be erased, so that they can only obediently remain in the army.

The idea is good, but if you humiliate the martial artist so much, how can a child of a good family be willing to join the army?

In a few decades, when someone shouted out that Donghuamen was a good man, the martial arts of the whole country disappeared quickly, and the smartest brains were all used to study the subset of scriptures and history, moral articles, and Ba looked at the road of entering the Shi, glorifying the ancestors, and no one thought about the battlefield and making contributions at the border!

A nation has moved from high-spirited and upward to introverted and conservative...... The five generations are a crossroads, a key node that evenly divides the 2,000-year-old history into two halves!

This can be seen from the performance of the people.

If it weren't for the implementation of the land granting order, there would not be so many peasant children willing to join the army.

"Your lives are really good!"

The hussar guard in charge of recruiting troops was not very old, and he could still keep a straight face at first, but soon his true form was revealed, and he kept talking, and the topic always revolved around Ye Hua......

"Do you know the champion? It is the three armies of the brave crown, hundreds of thousands of horses in the entire Great Zhou, and a well-deserved first person! Killed the Khitan Emperor and defeated the Southern Tang army in a row, Hou Ye is the first young hero in the world! ”

After boasting about Ye Hua, he said: "You don't know, the hussar guards are the guards appointed by His Majesty, specifically to protect His Majesty's safety, and the other crane control troops, the inner hall is straight, all get out of the way." See, when His Majesty personally marched, we followed us, but it was majestic! ”

"Also, the hussar guards have to read and read, and the Hou Ye will teach them personally, if they don't study seriously, they will be beaten up, and they will be punished for cleaning the toilet, and they will be ridiculed by everyone."

"The hussar guard's food is also good, there is meat at every meal, and the Hou Ye asked us to eat more pork liver, saying that if we eat pork liver, we can see things clearly at night, and any of you have night blindness, hurry up and say it."

……

There are a lot of things to talk about, and Tang Niu only remembers one thing, the hussars have meat to eat, and there are white-flour steamed buns!

These two things, is the New Year, dare to think, usually, can only meet the same, if you can eat steamed bread and meat every day, isn't it every day for the New Year?

Tang Niu's brain was stuffed with steamed buns.

He swore that he would join the hussars no matter what!

The soldiers took them around in a big circle, only Tang Niu did not complain of distress, nor did he shout tired, two long legs, walking fast, and his endurance was very good, like a cow!

In the afternoon, they came to the Hussar Guard camp.

Far away, you can smell a faint aroma.

When they arrived at the barracks, they found that there were soldiers in charge of food waiting, and in front of them, there were many baskets, including freshly steamed meat steamed buns!

The size of a fist, the aroma is spraying, and a bit of a steamed bun cracks, revealing the meat filling inside, and it is still dripping with oil!

Tang Niu's eyes were sharp, and after seeing it, he was immediately stunned!

Steamed buns, meat, meat, steamed buns, meat steamed buns!

Is this the Chinese New Year?

The man banged on the plank and beckoned them to come over.

Tang Niu swore that he really wanted to try it, but his father confessed, let himself be obedient, who to listen to?

It seems that the only boss in front of him is the hussar guard who is responsible for recruiting. Tang Niu forcibly endured the overflowing saliva, took a sneak look, and then lowered his head and secretly stared at the heels of the person in front of him with his gaze.

People who were attracted by the meat steamed buns did not taste the delicious steamed buns, but each of them was beaten with a stick!

They were stunned, obviously you greeted us, why did you beat us?

At this time, the hussar guard walked unhurriedly in front of them.

"Let me tell you, when you enter the barracks, the first rule is obedience! Everything must be listened to by the peak, so that you can eat, let you drink, you can drink, let you rest, you can rest! Whoever dares to act without authorization will be immediately engaged in military law, and there will be no luck! ”

Although it was a first offense, he was taught a quarter of an hour, and then he was punished again.

As the only one who didn't move, Tang Niu was paid - two huge meat steamed buns!

Holding it heavily in his hand, there was nothing else in his world, Tang Niu gulped and bit big.

The fluffy dough, take a bite, the oil and water roll on the tip of the tongue, full of meaty aroma, tempting to continue to bite into the next bite. Tang Niu's cheeks are bulging, like a squirrel with an acorn, which is funny. He used the fastest speed to eat up two meat steamed buns and had a comfortable burp.

Maybe it's not so difficult to join the army!

But what happened next made Tang Niu's good mood drop to the bottom all of a sudden.

These people, as well as the young men who were being sent one after another, were asked to line up outside the barracks - stand!

Who still can't stand, what's the big deal!

Tang Niu quickly paid for his idea.

When standing, you must put your legs together, raise your chest and raise your head, and look ahead, without the slightest movement, and you can't even roll your eyes.

The hussar guards only demonstrated three times, and among the people who traveled with Tang Niu, some were smart, and they learned it at once, and they learned it decently.

But Tang Niu couldn't, because of nervousness, he first spread his legs apart, and then clenched his fists, all of which did not meet the requirements, and he was hit with two strong sticks.

Fortunately, he was sturdy, thick-skinned, and unharmed.

Tang Niu didn't dare to move anymore, he was afraid that he would be beaten if he had the wrong posture.

And just like that, time passed little by little. When a quarter of an hour had passed, the first fellow shook his hand in the air, and unsurprisingly, he was beaten with a stick.

After a while, a boy with a cramp in his leg sat on the ground and wailed.

He was beaten, and two others laughed at him, and as a result, he was also beaten.

Whenever someone was beaten and screamed in pain, Tang Niu warned himself that he must be obedient and must not be beaten, no!

A full hour passed, Tang Niu really didn't get beaten again, and the others, more or less, were beaten several times, some people's arms were swollen, some people's legs were blue, and they walked with a limp.

But no one cared, after entering the barracks, each person was given a piece of wood, yes, a log! Let them carry the wood and run around the school grounds.

Tang Niu visually inspected it, and the school field was at least a mile away.

Weighing the wood in his hand again, it was wet and heavy, and he peeked at other people's, some people got dry wood, some people had very thin wood, of course, there were others who were worse than him.

The one who is asking for an exchange with someone else...... Tang Niu was in no mood to look at it anymore, so he put the wood on his shoulders and started running. His physical strength is really good, but after a lap, he is already covered in sweat.

In the second lap, I gasped for breath and my lungs were about to explode.

By the third lap, he felt as if he was carrying a mountain on his shoulders, extremely heavy, and every step was extremely difficult. The moisture in his body has been drained through his pores, and he is a blank shell, burning all over his body.

Those who carried dry wood overtook him, and those who carried wet wood had given up, and only he was still struggling to support himself.

No matter how hard it is, as long as you don't let it stop, you can't stop!

People can be tired to death, but they can't be shameless! Don't embarrass your family!

"That kid isn't bad!"

Ye Hua hugged his shoulders and looked down on the school field from the second floor of the bamboo building, taking in the selection of soldiers. Guo Wei has issued an edict to allow the hussar guards to be expanded to 3,000 people!

From 800 to 3000, this is a great leap, and Ye Hua attaches great importance to it.

No one shouted to stop, and the teenagers who were carrying the weight were reaching their limit, they put down the wood in their hands, sat on the wood, gasped for breath, and no one cared about them.

At this time, there was only one fool still moving forward, that was Tang Niu, and finally after his physical strength was exhausted, he fell down, but even if he fell, he still held the wood in his hand, like holding a dog's head gold!

Ye Hua smiled, "The first recruit is here!" ”
