I am a soldier in the border army

Chapter 25 Human Heart
The sky is white.

Han Shao finally survived his first night since time travel.

Cold is the most intuitive feeling.

Dirty, forget it.

As a grown man, it’s not that I can’t bear it.

But he couldn't understand how those damn bugs survived in such a cold weather.
Looking at the unknown little insect next to the bed who was killed by the true energy, Han Shao's scalp couldn't help but feel numb.

Getting up from the bed, Han Shao looked at the armor thrown aside carelessly and fell into deep thought.

This thing looks majestic when worn.

But now it was a mess, and Han Shao suddenly felt as if he had taken apart the toys when he was a child, but didn't know how to put them back together.

Just when he had a headache, he found that the door was quietly pushed open, and a figure wearing armor walked in.

Han Shao frowned and turned around.

He doesn't like people invading his personal space without saying hello.

Not even a temporary residence.

This can be regarded as a stinky problem brought by another world.

"Sima, are you awake?"

Seeing that Han Shao looked unhappy, the soldier felt a little embarrassed and spoke with some caution.

Han Shao heard this and looked him over.

Seeing that his armor was covered with ice and his face was blue from the cold, he was suddenly stunned.

"You stayed out all night?"

The soldier was about to reply, but Han Shao frowned again and said with a bit of anger.

"Who asked you to come?"

"It's Marquis Li Jun..."

The soldier's face turned a little pale, and he knelt down on one knee and replied.

"Bastard!"

Han Shao scolded angrily, and suddenly strode forward, grabbing the soldier's arm with an angry expression.

But the look he looked at the soldier was filled with regret.

"The officers and men under my command are all warriors who charge on the battlefield and fight for the rest of their lives!"

"How can you do such a shameful thing as a guard?"

As he said this, he helped the soldier up with all his strength, and at the same time angrily scolded Li Jing for not being a son of a man and humiliating the warrior.

Upon hearing this, the soldier's body, which had been frozen all night, suddenly felt an inexplicable warmth.

Instantly, warmth spread throughout my body.

He is just an ordinary soldier in the army. I have heard that Mr. Shu told many stories about soldiers dying for their confidants.

But that's just what I heard, and I don't have a very intuitive feeling.

But now facing Han Shao, he seemed to be willing to die happily for this man's words!
However, it seemed that Han Shao actually wanted to settle accounts with Li Jing and Li Junhou.

The soldier quickly knelt down on one knee again.

"Please Sima not blame Li Junhou!"

"It was not forcibly assigned by Marquis Li, he was voluntarily assigned because of his humble position."

Seeing that Han Shao didn't seem to believe it, the soldier quickly explained.

"If Sima hadn't given him the elixir yesterday, I would have buried his body in this wilderness grassland last night."

"I am grateful for Sima's help in my humble position. It's a pity that I have so little power, so I can only do trivial chores like leading horses and pedaling for Sima, just for peace of mind!"

Is that right?

When Han Shao heard this, he suppressed the anger on his face and looked at the other person up and down.

Only then did he remember that this soldier was indeed one of the seriously injured soldiers sent by Li Jing and his four men last night.

Han Shao looked complicated.

"Why is this?"

The soldier clasped his fists and looked sincere.

"Otherwise, there is no peace of mind in a humble position!"

As he said that, he saw that Han Shao had not yet put on his armor and said hurriedly.

"Does Sima want to patrol the camp? Let me wear the armor for Sima!"

Han Shao's eyes lit up.

Sure enough, a little clever ghost.

So he followed the good path with a troubled face.

"OK then……"

After putting on his armor, Han Shao saw that the armored soldier was going to bring hot water for him to wash himself.

Han Shao interrupted quickly, patted him on the shoulder and asked softly.

"what's your name?"

"Humble job Lu Yan! Former Xin Ziying..."

Han Shao was too lazy to listen to this and waved his hand to interrupt again.

"I remember."

With that said, he walked out of the door of this room that could barely be called a house.

However, when Han Shao walked to the door, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

"By the way, you can follow me from now on."

"Now patrol the camp with me."

The soldier named Lu Yan turned red and did not answer.

Han Shao frowned slightly.

"What? Don't want to?"

Lu Yan, who finally came to his senses, immediately clasped his fists on one knee.

"Willing to die for Sima Xiao!"

Han Shao finally smiled.

He felt like he was adapting to this strange world bit by bit.

And for this purpose, he began to accumulate and sharpen his minions.

……

Although Bison Village has been occupied for many years.

But a group of horse bandits who are like wild beasts know nothing about business.

I rushed in last night, but under the cover of night, I didn't feel anything.

At this time, taking a closer look in the sky, I could see the dilapidation inside.

Han Shao glanced around and saw that there were wooden shacks built haphazardly everywhere.

Some are even just a few wooden sticks covered with a layer of rags to make a nest.

This made Han Shao sigh with emotion at the tenacity of human vitality in this ghost world. "Ah...Sima!"

"It's so early, Sima!"

Facing the greetings one after another, Han Shao's cheeks twitched.

Damn it, I couldn't sleep the whole night!

But his face was warm.

"It's getting late. I see that many soldiers have gotten up and come to see you."

When these words came out, even some soldiers who were unfamiliar with Han Shao could not help but feel a little close to him at this time.

After all, almost all generals in the world know that sharing the joys and sorrows with and showing sympathy to the soldiers can greatly boost military morale and one's own prestige.

But if you know it, how many can do it?
But at this time, Han Shao still blamed himself.

"I was too hasty last night and made the soldiers suffer from the cold. It's my fault, Sima Zhi!"

Hearing this, a group of soldiers gathered around and said hurriedly.

"How could it be Sima's fault? The soldiers escaped from death and had a safe place to stay, all thanks to Sima's decision-making!"

"What's more, if Sima hadn't charged forward and fought hard yesterday! We and other soldiers might have been surrounded and killed by those barbaric dogs!"

Some soldiers even said with anger on their faces.

"Yes! When Sima says this, does it mean that in Sima's eyes, my brothers and I are the kind of people who are wolf-hearted and dog-eat-dog?"

After the guy said this, he was immediately slapped on the head by the superior officer beside him and scolded.

"Why are you talking to Sima? Why don't you apologize to Sima quickly!"

When he saw the Shangguan, who didn't know whether he was a corps commander or something else, he forced himself down and knelt down to apologize.

Han Shao stepped forward to stop him, pulled the boy with a rebellious face, and said softly.

"You are right, this Sima is the one who has seen something different."

Seeing the guy's expression of surprise, he even looked a little ashamed.

Han Shao smiled and patted his shoulder heavily to show his closeness.

Well, as a donkey, that's what you have to do.

After letting go of the guy, Han Shao looked around at the soldiers around him, and then said loudly.

"We are all brothers from Paoze. If we meet outsiders in the future, I will not say anything to you!"

"This Sima is well aware of the suffering our brothers have suffered today!"

"After I return from Japan, I will give you a banquet at the best wine shop in Zhenliao City!"

Hearing Han Shao's words, all the soldiers suddenly showed joy.

"This is good! Remember it, brothers! Sima said he would treat me to a banquet at the best wine restaurant!"

"Don't let Sima default on your debt then!"

"Get lost! Do you think Sima has the same habit as a thief like you?"

"We, Sima Na, are a man who can stand up to the sky! Every spit and a nail! How can we refuse to pay?"

One of the thieves said with a joking expression.

"Are you right, Sima?"

Han Shao slapped him sideways and cursed.

"Damn it! I want you to squeeze in? I'm right to the point, if you say treat me, I'll treat you!"

Saying that, Han Shao added.

"That's right! I won't treat you when you play with women! This is too unlucky, I'm not married yet!"

It tastes right!It tastes right!
After Han Shao finished speaking, the soldiers who came up from all around burst into laughter.

Waves of laughter echoed endlessly in this valley surrounded by mountains.

Li Jing and the other four people who came in a hurry looked at Han Shao who was surrounded by soldiers and thought something had happened.

When I heard laughter, I finally felt relieved.

After squeezing their way into the crowd, Li Jing and the others hurried forward to pay their respects.

"Meet Sima!"

But Han Shao just nodded at them and looked at the soldiers around him again.

"Okay! This Sima agreed with you earlier, now you also agree to this Sima's request!"

When all the soldiers heard this, their laughter continued.

"As long as Sima treats us, let alone a hundred requests, our brothers will agree!"

"That's right! Sima, tell me, if I, Old Chen Danfan, frown, that's..."

Someone next to me answered instantly.

"Haha, I raised him!"

"Ha ha--"

Amidst the burst of laughter, Han Shao suddenly stopped the smile on his face and said.

"This Sima wants you to survive."

As these words came out, the scene that was originally bustling with laughter gradually became a little quieter.

"Don't let this Sima treat guests. I can't find anyone..."

"This is what I want."

Han Shao's voice became a little deeper.

"This is also the first military order that I, in my capacity as Sima, issue to you!"

A depressing atmosphere permeated the valley called Bison Village.

Because everyone knew that after the brief laughter, their situation at this time was still cruel.

The boundless vast grassland means countless enemies and wild dogs.

Maybe they who are laughing and joking today don’t know where they will lie down next moment...

"only!"

Suddenly Lu Yan, who had been standing behind Han Shao, clasped his fist on one knee.

"In this humble position, I will obey Sima Jun's orders!"

The next moment, countless figures in black armor knelt down in the valley.

"only!"

"In this humble position, I will obey Sima Jun's orders!"

"good!"

Han Shao laughed loudly and finally looked at Li Jing and the other four.

"Let the soldiers cook a meal!"

"I, Sima, take them home!"

The word 'go home' seemed to also touch the four of them, Li Jing. Their expressions turned pale and they clasped their fists to accept the order.

"only!"
