Capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes are unforgivable, but compared with beheading, labor reform is already the best result.

In the darkness, Tianhao looked in the direction of the execution table where the cry came from afar, and let out a soft sigh.

"It's not kind to be rich......"

From then on, Thunderhorn City was no longer what it used to be.

The parade will continue until dawn.

……

Cattle Clan's territory, Rock City.

When he first saw the tall city wall rising from the ground, a strong sense of adoration rose from the deepest part of his heart, and in the next few seconds, it turned into shock.

He's a very special kind of pig. Pushing up according to the lineage, the ancestors of the male nose can be traced back hundreds of years. At that time, his family was very famous, and for three generations he was in charge of the military affairs of the clan. Unfortunately, when the war broke out, the tribe was miserable, almost all family members were killed in battle, and the rest of the people were displaced, and by the time the Xiongbi generation arrived, they had already become outright civilians.

Male Nose received a lot of knowledge about warfare from the old man from an early age. The closer he got to Rock City, the more shocked he became———— the towers were so tall and sturdy that any one of them could be used as a fortress. This type of structure is equipped with ballistas and archers, which can pose a threat to the attacking troops from a great distance, and it can only be destroyed by heavy trebuchets, and it is not possible to solve the problem with one or two stone bullets, but must concentrate fire and continue to bombard, so that it is possible to smash the middle and upper parts of the tower.

What's even more terrifying is that there are so many such towers that there are as many as thirty-four of them as far as the male nose can see along the way.

It has not yet entered the Rock City, and can only barely be seen, counting similar buildings above the city walls. God knows how many towers are there in that city? Maybe more than twice that number? Or even more?

"Hurry up, there's Rock City ahead, we're almost there." The leader made a hurried and cheerful voice, interrupting Xiong's musings.

This is a marching brigade from Thunder Point City to Rock City for civilian exchanges. According to Tianhao's order, Thunder Horn City will send 60,000 pigs this winter, and after receiving short-term training in Rock City, they will be sent to each newly built village with a scale of 200 and 1,000 people respectively to enrich the local area.

Including the male nose, the pigs could not understand such an order. In their opinion, Rock City is no different from Thunderhorn City, both of which are cities of the Niu people. From the day the pig tribe was defeated and destroyed, his identity has been fixed, and he has always been labeled as a "prisoner of war".

Captives have no status, let alone human rights. There are no more than two kinds of fates in the future, either hard labor or slavery. In the eyes of many pigs, Niu Weibang, the king of thunderhorns, was a very good tribal leader, he managed the prisoners of war strictly, but did not insult and kill indiscriminately on a large scale. Of course, occasionally catching a few disobedient guys is a typical example, and things like whipping in public to make an example do happen. But on the whole, the food supply of the huge group of pig prisoners of war in Thunderhorn City is quite reluctant, they can eat half full, and the labor intensity in normal times is acceptable.

Two weeks ago, Xiongbi had heard a lot of people talk about the new acting patriarch of the Thunder Cow Department in a strange tone. His name is Niu Tianhao, and he is a well-known name. This guy is very capable of fighting, it is said that he was favored by the god of war, and with the strength of a mere rock city, he continuously destroyed many tribes such as Steel Fang, Crazy Fang, and Wind Fang, and finally captured Fang City with a strong overwhelming force, killed the pig king, and completely wiped out the pig tribe.

Pigs have always admired warriors, especially those who are quick to think, have both strength and intelligence.

Male nose rarely participates in discussions between clansmen, partly because of his age, and partly because it is difficult to resonate with other people. Although the glory of the family has been a long time ago, it still makes the male nose have an instinctive cold arrogance. He was never afraid of his opponents, and even after being a prisoner, he still felt that he was no worse than anyone else.

He had seen from afar the new patriarch who was highly regarded among the captives of the pigs and was known as the "God of War".

It's so young...... Looking at the white and handsome face, the male nose was slightly distracted. He has always looked down on delicate-skinned guys, and they can't be considered men at all. Nima's, a man's courage must be proven by scars. Even if you haven't been on the battlefield, you usually have to find someone to fight a few times when you have nothing to do, and prove your strength with your fists.

It must be a little white face who has climbed to the current position by relying on the strength of the family!

This is the definition given by the male nose to Tianhao.

Of course, his feelings for Tianhao are not all hatred and contempt.

After the new patriarch ascended the throne, the daily treatment of the pig captives in Thunderhorn City was greatly improved.

The most noticeable change is the rations.

It used to be served twice a day: breakfast at 7 a.m., basically vegetable soup and wild vegetable soup with little salt, plus a half-fist-sized multigrain dumpling. At 1 p.m., the second meal was served, and the dumplings were increased to two and a half, and the soup was still mainly vegetables, but a small amount of meat was added, such as animal offal.

The rations are much richer now than in the past: the staple food of each meal is also dumplings, but not the garbage stuff of the past, which is mixed with a lot of wheat bran and chaff, and is rough in the mouth, and can puncture the tongue at any time. Now the shape of the dumplings is flattened, more like a thick cake, the main ingredient is still wheat bran, but there is absolutely no bran, the proportion of flour has also been significantly improved, and what is even more rare is that there is a lot of meat residue mixed in it, and it itself contains salt, and the taste is very good.

This is a product of the Rock City Grain Processing Factory. In line with the principle of no waste, people use stone mills and water conservancy machinery to grind animal bones into powder, add fish bones, shrimp skin, beans, crabs and shellfish in shell, seaweed (seaweed and kelp), and animal offal (pig blood and cow blood) that cannot enter the normal meat processing process, stir with wheat bran and flour in proportion, supplemented by various condiments, press and form with molds in an artificial way, and send them to the oven to dry the water.

In the era of civilization, this thing can only be regarded as animal feed, not to mention eating, and no one even looks at it.

Tianhao named it "marching rations".

Including the male nose, all the pigs in Thunderhorn City feel that this ration tastes good, the only drawback is that it is too dry, which is also the biggest advantage———— no water means that it will not be adulterated, the gruel looks like the sea is full of a big bowl, but it is not full at all when you drink it, and you will soon be hungry. Unlike now, even the most edible pigs can eat enough for two marching rations, and if you eat three, you will feel panicked.

The soup is also much better than it used to be.

Male nose ate the first real fish soup in his life.

He watched as the cow cooks brought a whole basket of frozen fish from the warehouse. In front of everyone, pick up an axe, chop up a large fish the length of an adult's arm, and throw it into a large pot to stew.

On that day, all the pig camps in Thunderhorn City were boiling. The people were happy like a festival, and some people were suspicious that this was a precursor to the imminent cruelty of the Niu people against the prisoners of war...... As it turned out later, they had thought too much, and all the changes came from the young new patriarch.

According to the order, the first batch of 30,000 pigs left Thunderhorn City and headed for Rock City.

When he took the clothes from the Niu Clan officer who led the team, Xiongbi finally determined that this was not a dream, nor was it an evil plot by the new patriarch to drive the pigs out of the city and freeze to death in the wild.

The soft cotton clothes feel very good to the touch, especially when worn close to the body, without the thick and hard prickly feeling of the leather robe. The only thing that made people feel uncomfortable was that they had to take a bath———— and the Niu officer who led the team held an iron horn and loudly announced in the prisoner of war camp: everyone lined up in order and went to the newly built bathroom to take a bath. There were plenty of barrels and hot water, and if anyone dared to refuse, or pretend not to scrub the dirt off his body, let him blow the cold wind outside the barracks all night with his bare ass, and let the male symbol under his crotch forever lose its proper effect.

This punishment is so terrible that it makes people shudder to think about it.

Almost all of the people praised the young new patriarch, thinking that he was a well-known man, a good man who was really willing to solve the difficulties of the common people.

As for the pig king and the pig tribe...... To tell the truth with my conscience, when the pig clan was still alive in the past, I had never eaten such good things or worn such good clothes.

Xiongbi felt very confused, where did that young patriarch get so many supplies?

From the time he received the order to the time he set off, he had been carefully observing the changes in the cattle people in Thunderhorn City.

According to the ratio of 30 kilograms of coarse noodles, 20 kilograms of brown rice, 10 kilograms of frozen fish, and 5 kilograms of pickled radish or pickled cabbage for each adult, the cattle civilians in Leijiao City received the most abundant food ration since the beginning of winter.

At the same time, clothes and peat were distributed.

All distributions were completed within two days. Tianhao ordered a number of temporary workstations to be set up in the city, and distributed the large amount of materials transported from Rock City in proportion to the blocks. The elderly can reduce it as appropriate, and those who have military merit and children can also get a little cheese and brown sugar.

For the first time in his life, the male nose saw the distribution of oil.

There are two types, white and yellow, and it is said to be animal oil and fish oil. They are housed in large, uniformly sized jars, which have long since been frozen and hardened in cold weather. The staff of the cattle tribe dug it out with a small shovel with skillful skills, according to the number of each household (five adults) quota, the grease fragments condensed into a solid are weighed, five city catties are a portion, each jar of grease can be dug out of four parts, and finally the remaining grease in the jar becomes a separate portion, the whole process is fair and transparent, at most, someone wants to get a jar for nothing, but it is harmless.

When the cheese and sugar cubes were distributed to the military meritorious people and the children, people in the neighborhood gathered around, and the pig people who watched the excitement also widened their eyes in disbelief.

It was indeed real cheese, and the rich aroma in the air could not be faked in any way.

The sturdy Ox warriors took down large pieces of brown sugar from the cart, about the size of a millstone, wrapped the sugar cubes in thick paper, picked up heavy war hammers and smashed them, then unfolded the wrapping paper, still carefully measured it with a weighing pan, and handed it to the military meritorious men and children waiting in line one by one, while letting them dip their thumbs in red ink and leave an imprint on a form with their names written on them.

The woman in charge of the distribution is very beautiful, with a thick waist, a round face, and a fat buttocks, just looking at it makes the men's hearts flutter, and the male nose can't help but swallow saliva several times. Such women are not in one or two, but in groups. I've never seen them before, so I'm guessing they're from Rock City. They laughed very much, seemed to be gentle, and from time to time they picked up a little loose crushed sugar from their fingers from the wrapper and distributed it to the children gathered around, causing bursts of cheers and happy laughter.

In just a few days, the pigs in Thunderhorn City felt like they were living in another world.

"The cattle people eat so well, they have salted fish, they have cured meat, and they have the kind of steamed buns that are very white in color...... The gods are above, and I have never seen so much delicious food in my life. ”

"Salted fish and cured meats are nothing, they still have big chunks of fat, and cheese and sugar. But I've heard that not everyone in the Niu tribe has these things, and they are only given to soldiers with military merits and children. ”

"The women who distributed the supplies were so good-looking, if I could sleep in my arms, I would be content in my life."

"Say, do we have a chance to become ox people? Get the same treatment as them? ”

After all the talk, this question is the most realistic.

Although the pig is rude on the outside, he is not a fool.

From the time they were captured and came to Thunder Point City, they stayed here for a long time and experienced all kinds of changes in the city.

"Not all Ox tribes can live such a good life. If you think about the previous patriarch Niu Weibang, and look at the present, I dare to bet with my head that if it weren't for the current young man, the Niu people in Thunderhorn City would still be the same as before, either poor ghosts or beggars. ”

"You're right, everything has only changed since the arrival of their new patriarch, and our food is much better than before."

"If I can live the same good life as them, I am willing to fight for them, and I am willing to be loyal to the new King of the Thunder Bull."

Thirty thousand pigs left Thunderhorn City.

Now, we have finally arrived at Rock City.

Billnose felt that his head was not enough———— and he was shocked by everything here, whether it was the scale of the building or the strangely designed streets, plus the walls and towers, which combined to form an immensely fortified fortress.

Whether it is a resident or a vigilant, the mental outlook is completely different from that of the Niu people in Thunderhorn City. Healthy, energetic, and infectious, you can't help but want to be a part of it.

What's even more surprising is the large number of pigs here. No matter how you look at it, they don't look like regulated people, but real freedmen.

A pig official in a leather robe stood at the entrance to the city, smiling, holding an iron horn, and shouting to the huge team of pigs.

"Welcome to Rock City, your home, a true place of wonder and hope."

Someone recognized the pig officer.

His name is Black Tooth, and he used to be the leader of the Steeltooth Cottage.
