...

At the hour of the Hai Dynasty, four hundred new soldiers recruited from Xincheng, led by the border soldiers, sat in groups of ten people on the four-wheeled carriage, and led by two mules and horses to the resettlement camp sixty miles away from Xincheng.

Along the way, Hu Qing sat in the carriage without saying a word, holding his package tightly with his hands, feeling the surrounding night and the emotions of everyone in the car, including joy and excitement, sighs, and deep sobs. The situation is rich and colorful.

"At this time, everyone gets off the bus and waits to receive the imperial examination. Let's rest here for a night tonight, and I will take you to Shuojiao Xinying to report tomorrow..."

With the loud shout of a team officer in the team leader, the quiet environment in front of the camp was immediately broken. Hu Qing also reluctantly got off the carriage with the crowds. He lined up under the shouts of the soldiers, waiting to enter the military camp to receive his confession.

After a while, the closed door of the solid camp was slowly opened, and the corner of the silence in front of the camp was also removed by the soldiers in the camp. After the team officer greeted the head of the camp, the team officer waved to the hundreds of people behind him.

"Enter one by one, no chaos or urge to do so. Those who violate the order will be engaged in military law!"

When the first recruit entered the military camp, the camp leader roared with emotionlessness, which scared Hu Qing and some scholars trembled. He thought to himself that it seemed that these soldiers in the army were not easy to meet, how could they survive in the next three years?

After all the new recruits entered the resettlement camp, the commander gave the order, and the open camp gate several feet high again, pushed by the soldiers guarding the camp, closed tightly. Hu Qing watched the gate gradually close, and at this moment he felt as if he had completely cut off contact with the outside world. As the door bolt as the thickness of his thigh made a clear sound, his heart sank.

"Next~"

Before a huge cowhide tent, a rough alien general roared, and immediately a new recruit came forward to report his name and put it on his hand. Then the alien general handed over his identity to the new recruit at the table. He pointed at the edge of the recruit, signaling his bedding and bed cover. Then, the new recruit walked towards his camping tent under the guidance of another soldier.

When Hu Qing was called, he looked at the bearded alien general, tremblingly pressed the seal. He was about to collect his bedding, the Hu man immediately stood up and stood straight, which scared Hu Qing almost fell to the ground.

It turned out that the Hu people were respectful when they saw the team officer coming in. The Hu people were originally the son of the leader of a small alien tribe on the Hulan Grassland. Because the Hulan people suffered heavy casualties after the Jizhou War last year, the father of his patriarch keenly felt that Liu Ce's army would definitely compete for the grassland in the future and would not let the Hulan people go so easily. So he immediately joined his clan to surrender to the Military Governor's Office and released all the Central Plains slaves in the clan to show sincerity, and won the favor of the generals of the Military Governor's Office.

He was forced into the father of his clan leader and was hostage. As a result, this guy was valued by Chen Qing because of his rough appearance and great strength. He made him become a main deputy general in the New Army resettlement camp to assist in the new recruits' resettlement life, and was called from time to time to train military equestrians.

The team officer waved his hand and signaled that he didn't have to be too polite. Then the Hu general handed over the soldiers. Hu Qing, who was so scared that he was silent, stepped forward and took out a bag of tobacco. The two of them quickly sucked the clouds and spit out mist in the tent, ignoring the new recruits who were quenching and kept wiping their sleeves and wiping their tears.

"Why is Team Jiang official half an hour later than expected?" The Hu man asked while smoking, his posture was like an old acquaintance.

When the team officer heard this, he took a long sip of cigarettes. The smoke pot was red, and then he spit out a perfect smoke ring and said, "No, there were a few bastards on the way to escape. It took some effort to catch them. It was a little late. I have to send them to the Military Law Department for trial tomorrow..."

When the Hu people heard this, they swept around the recruits lined up around them. They stayed on Hu Qing for a while recently, and then said in the not-so-fluent Zhongyuan dialect: "I wonder, there is no second one in the world for such good treatment under the command of the Military Supervisor. There is actually someone who wants to be a deserter. It's really embarrassing. Otherwise, the two missing places will be left for my brother, but he has no way to come in..."

"Take it down..." said the captain Jiang, "Your two brothers are not even as good as the hair. If you let them enter the camp, it would be a joke. OK, are you ready for the meal? Damn it's so hungry..."

The Hu general hurriedly said, "It's ready, I've left you half a lamb leg. Don't worry, the roast is burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, and there is no smell of mutton, so you can enjoy it..."

"I'll do it for you..." Team Jiang nodded with satisfaction, then said, "Don't worry, I'll make a piece for you when I go back and give it to your wife's place to show off, so I won't spend much money on you..."

The Hu general was overjoyed when he heard this: "Then thank you first. It's getting late, so why don't you go and rest first?"

"No hurry..." Team Jiang extinguished the burning tobacco in his pipe and said to the Hu general, "It's not too late to bring these bastards to dinner later. Well, you're busy, I'll go out for a walk..."

"Secretary of Team Jiang walks slowly..."

After the Hu general smiled and sent the team officer away, he rubbed his palms for a while and said, "Please take this glass treasure mirror to send to Saiwo. This girl will definitely be happy to marry me immediately when she sees it. Hehehe, as for my wife, let's just send some salt to her..."

After thinking about it, the Hu general immediately returned to a serious look. He looked at Hu Qing who was stunned and asked loudly: "Why are you still here!"

Hu Qing was so scared that he quickly took out the bedding and bed cover, and left the tent as if he was running away.

Entering a large tent that can accommodate more than 100 people, recruits from all over the place began to lay the bed and fold the quilt under the dark oil lamps. This made such a nerd like Hu Qing, who had never done any housework at home. He learned from others' appearance and had to work hard to lay it out.

He was about to sit down and rest for a while, when he was called out of the camp by a copper whistle. He heard a loud noise under the night sky and shouted: "Everyone gathers together, go to the camp and have dinner!"

Apart from breakfast, Hu Qing never had food again. Hearing the shouts, he felt hungry, so he walked out of the camp with everyone and followed the soldiers to the camp's tent.

When Hu Qing came to the camp, he saw more than 20 long tables placed inside, each table could accommodate twenty people for dining. Each table was placed with a painted black food plate, and each table was placed with a large bowl of rice porridge and four steamed buns heated steaming in addition to a bowl of pickled vegetables. The new recruits who were rushing to the sky were drooling.

After everyone took their seats, with the officer's order, everyone immediately started to eat voraciously. Hu Qing himself also ate it very ugly. To be honest, such foods are less than three or five times a year at home. The porridge is much thicker than the one at home. The steamed buns are made of pure white flour and are not mixed with any other grains. They are really fragrant and sweet, and they are enjoyable.

Soon, the meal was finished. Since there was not enough porridge, Hu Qing and others added three large bowls. Then they felt very comfortable in their stomachs. They did not forget to lick the remaining soup cleanly. This was a good habit he developed at home and never wasted any food.

After dinner, everyone returned to the camping tents under the command of the officers to rest. As soon as they entered the camping tent, everyone found that they had two new and neat red military uniforms placed in front of their beds, and they were stunned...

"No noise is allowed during the camp. It's too late today. You should rest early. Get up at 3 o'clock tomorrow. You must walk to Shuojiao New Recruitment Camp ten miles away, which will officially receive three months of recruit training. Have you heard it clearly!"

"I heard it clearly..."

As the camp officer scolded, everyone replied intermittently, and then began to climb onto their bed to prepare for a loose dress to rest.

Hu Qing looked at the military uniform placed in front of him and felt like crying. Unexpectedly, he would soon become the "Qiu Ba" he always looked down upon.

He remembered that when he was talking big on the street on weekdays, and scolding soldiers whenever he met everyone, he was a mischievous man of butchers. He was useless except killing people, and was ignorant of his eyes. It was a very different story from the way of a saint. Now he thought about it, it was a great irony...

"Lights out!"

Seeing that everyone in the tent had already lie down, the officer gave the order and the lights in the tent were extinguished. Before leaving, the officer pulled down the curtain and instantly became quiet inside the tent.

Hu Qing was lying in a brand new quilt but couldn't sleep. He remembered that he was teaching his wife aloof at home during the day to "three obediences and four virtues" a lesson. As a result, he came to a camp a hundred miles away and became a recruit. Now that he was still dreaming, he really wanted to cry...

“Woo woo woo woo…”

Just as Hu Qing wanted to close his eyes and calm down his uneasy mood, intermittent sobs came from all over the tent, which made his nose sore.

"I want to go home, so what mistake did I make when I study at home? I will suffer this kind of sin?"

A scholar remembered what happened today and immediately started crying with sobs...

"What a quarrel! I'm like a sissy. I'm the most annoying to you scholars. You just rely on reading a few books and read a few more words, and look down on those who look down on this and that all day long. Are you humans not humans? Being a soldier will scare you into this kind of virtue. You are such a group of bad guys. If you cry or not, I will beat you to death!"

Opposite the crying, a twenty-five-year-old man couldn't help but get up and yelled at the scholars, scaring them to the point of shutting up immediately.

"Who is making noise? Can't sleep anymore? Believe it or not, each of you twenty military sticks!"

At this moment, the night patrol soldiers came from outside the tent. When the man heard this, he immediately retracted his bedding and calmed down in the tent soon returned to his peace...

"Oh, forget it, let's take one step at a time..."

Hu Qing sighed helplessly, quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, tightened the quilt on his body, and forced himself to sleep. Soon after, he felt sleepy and didn't know anything...

"Hey, hey, wake up, wake up, don't sleep, don't sleep, it's time to set off, otherwise you will be scolded again..."

In a daze, Hu Qing was pushed and woke up. When he opened his tired eyes, he saw a young man in a red military uniform looking at him nervously.

Hu Qing stood up and looked around. He saw busy figures everywhere in the camp. The genius outside the camp had just brightened. It was just after the hour of Mao. He didn't come back to his senses for a while and couldn't help but want to fall back and continue to fall asleep. Suddenly, he remembered that his current identity was a soldier. He immediately began to put on his military uniform in a hurry and prepare to go to the recruit camp to report.

On weekdays, my family was already used to being served by Ji. I really took a lot of effort to put on my military uniform. I still had a belt tied with the help of the young man. Then I rolled up the bedding and bed cover randomly, and with the help of the young man, I tied it with a tampon and made a strong order to wait for the departure.

"You can eat breakfast at the recruit camp. Now, let's go all out!"

The team officer looked at the messy formation, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, then stepped on the war horse and roared, and the gate to the north of the resettlement camp was immediately opened.

"Go away! Drive~"
