Tang Niu and several young people were selected. They wanted to accept Ye Hua's personal selection. If they passed successfully, they could enter the Cavalry Guard. Even if they were not selected, they would have the opportunity to enter other imperial guards.

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

Both the Han and Tang dynasties had a strong martial spirit.

Even the weak scholars must carry a three-foot sword and fight in the border, without regrets if they die.

After the Song Dynasty, literati had no urge to serve the country, leaving only a very vulgar relationship between men and women, spring flowers and autumn moons. The root cause was that it occurred in the Five Dynasties period.

Wars are frequent, warriors are killing everywhere, and they commit too many evils, and the people are afraid and disgusted.

On the other hand, there were insufficient troops in various places, so prisoners had to be charged into the army. In order to prevent escape, tattoos were made! On the faces of soldiers, they could not be wiped away, so they could only stay in the army obediently.

The idea is good, but how could a good family member be willing to join the army if he humiliates his husband so much?

In a few decades, when someone called out the Donghuamen to be a good man, the martial spirit of the whole country quickly disappeared. The smartest minds were all used to study classics, history, and collections of moral articles. They were eager to walk the path of Jinshi and glorify their ancestors. No one thought about fighting on the battlefield and making contributions to the border!

A nation has moved from high spirits to restrained and conservative... The Five Dynasties is a crossroads, a key node that evenly divides two thousand years of history into two halves!

It can be seen from the folk performance.

If the land order had not been implemented, there would have been no such many peasant children willing to join the army.

"Your lives are really good!"

The cavalry guard who was in charge of recruiting soldiers was not very old. He could still be stern at first, but his true colors were soon revealed. He kept telling, and the topic always revolved around Ye Hua...

"Do you know the champion marquis? He is the bravest army, with hundreds of thousands of troops throughout the Great Zhou, and he deserves the first person! He killed the Khitan emperor and defeated the Southern Tang army in a row. The Marquis is the number one young hero in the world!"

After boasting about Ye Hua, he said again: "You don't know that the Cavalry Guard is the personal guards appointed by His Majesty, and is dedicated to protecting His Majesty's safety. The other crane control troops and the inner palace are straight, all of them will go away. Seeing that, when His Majesty personally attacked, we will follow us, which is so majestic!"

"Also, everyone in the cavalry guards must study and read. The Marquis will teach him personally. If he does not study seriously, he will be punished by a thug and will be punished to sweep the toilet and be ridiculed by everyone."

"The food of the cavalry guards is also good, and there are meat and fish in every meal. Also, the Marquis asked us to eat more pork liver, saying that after eating pork liver, we can see clearly at night. Whoever you have night blindness, tell me it quickly."

...

There are so many things to talk about, and Tang Niu only remembers one thing: the cavalry guards have meat to eat and white flour steamed buns!

These two things are only something that you dare to think about during the Chinese New Year. Usually, you can only satisfy the same thing. If you can eat steamed buns and meat every day, then will you celebrate the Chinese New Year every day?

Tang Niu's brain was filled with steamed buns.

He vowed that if he was right, he would join the cavalry guards!

The soldiers took them in a big circle. Only Tang Niu did not complain or complain. He had two long legs, walked very fast, and had good endurance, like a cow!

In the afternoon, they arrived at the cavalry camp.

A faint fragrance can be smelled far away.

After arriving at the military camp, I found that there were soldiers in charge of the food waiting. In front of them, there were many baskets of freshly steamed meat buns!

The size of a fist is scented, and the steamed buns are cracked, revealing the meat filling inside, and there is still oil flowing!

Tang Niu was sharp-eyed and was stunned immediately after seeing it!

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

Is this the New Year?

The chef rang the board and called them over.

Tang Niu swore that he really wanted to try it, but his father told me to be obedient, who would listen to?

It seemed that the only boss in front of him was the cavalry guard who was responsible for recruiting soldiers. Tang Niu endured the flood of saliva, took a secret look, then lowered his head and stared at the heels of the person in front of him with his eyes.

Those who were attracted by the meat steamed buns did not taste the delicious steamed buns, but instead got a stick for each!

They were so stupid that they were all right. It was you who called him, so why did you beat us?

At this time, the cavalry guard walked in front of them without any hesitation.

"Tell you that the first rule to enter the military camp is to obey! Everything must be heard from the top, so that you can eat and drink, and let you rest, so that you can rest! Whoever dares to act without authorization, will be engaged in military law immediately, and there will be no luck!"

Although it was a first offense, I was still taught a lesson for a quarter of an hour, and then I was punished to stand again.

As the only person who did not move, Tang Niu was rewarded - two huge meat buns!

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

The soft dough, with a bite, the oil rolling on the tip of his tongue, the full of meat fragrance, tempting to continue to bite. Tang Niu's cheeks were bulging, like a squirrel filled with acorns, funny. He ate all the two meat buns as fast as possible and burped comfortably.

Perhaps it is not that difficult to join the army!

But what happened next made Tang Niu's good mood suddenly drop to the bottom.

These people, as well as the young people who were sent here one after another, were asked to line up outside the military camp - standing!

Who can't stand still? What's so great!

Tang Niu quickly paid the price for his ideas.

When standing, you must put your legs together, raise your chest and look forward, look ahead without any movement, and even your eyes cannot turn around.

The cavalry guards only demonstrated three times. Among the people who walked with Tang Niu, some of them were smart and learned it all at once, and they learned it as if they were decent.

But Tang Niu couldn't do it. Because of his nervousness, he first spread his legs apart, then clenched his fists, but they didn't meet the requirements. He was hit by two solid sticks on his body.

Fortunately, he is strong and has thick skin and no injuries.

Tang Niu no longer dared to move, for fear that he would be beaten if he had the wrong posture.

In this way, time passed little by little. When a quarter of an hour passed, the guy who learned to do it first snatched his hand, and if nothing unexpected happened, he was hit by a stick.

After a while, a kid had cramps in his legs and sat on the ground wailing.

Not only did he get beaten, but two others laughed at him, but they were beaten as well.

Whenever someone is beaten torture, Tang Niu warns himself that he must be obedient and must not be beaten or not!

A full hour passed, and Tang Niu really didn't get beaten again, while the others were more or less hit several times. Some of their arms were swollen and some of their legs were blue. They limped when they walked.

But no one cared. After entering the military camp, each person was sent a piece of wood. Yes, it was a piece of log! They were asked to carry the wood and run around the schoolyard.

Tang Niu visually checked that the schoolyard was at least one mile away.

He weighed the wood in his hand again, and it was wet and heavy. He took a look at other people's eyes. Some people got dry wood, while some people had very thin wood. Of course, some were even worse than him.

The man was asking to exchange it with someone else... Tang Niu was in the mood to watch it anymore. He carried the wood on his shoulders and started running. His physical strength was really good, but after a round, he was already sweating all over.

In the second round, my breath was gasping for breath and my lungs were about to explode.

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

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

No matter how difficult it is, as long as you don’t stop, you can’t stop!

People can be exhausted, but they cannot be shameless! They cannot embarrass their families!

"That kid is pretty good!"

Ye Hua hugged his shoulders and looked down at the school ground from the second floor of the bamboo building, and saw the situation of selecting soldiers. Guo Wei had issued an order to allow the expansion of the cavalry guards to 3,000!

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

No one called for a stop, and the teenagers who were carrying the weight reached their limits. They put down the wood in their hands, sat on the wood, gasping for breath, and no one cared about them.

At this time, there was only one fool who was still moving forward, that was Tang Niu. Finally, after exhausting his energy, he fell down, but even if he fell down, he still held the wood tightly in his hand, as if he was holding a dog's head and gold!

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