"I said, the steamed bun in your hand is mine," she said.

Before he finished speaking, the man started laughing, and his laugh was sinister. He said, "Boy, don't make trouble."

"I just want my stuff back."

The other person looked at her. The boy was very weak. The uniform red military uniform looked wide and long on him. He was also shorter than the average boy. Standing there, he looked like a child who had not grown up.

A child yelling at him is like an ignorant puppy barking at a wolf. It is nothing but ridiculous.

"Your stuff?" Scarface grabbed the meat bun with disdain, and before He Yan could react, he quickly threw it into his mouth. The meat bun was not that big to begin with, and he swallowed it in a few bites, just like a beast that caught its prey and couldn't wait to eat it. After eating, he looked at He Yan provocatively and said with a strange smile: "Yours? Who can testify? What can you do to me?"

The food had already gone into his stomach, and He Yan couldn't cut open his stomach to get the meat bun out. After the other party finished speaking, he looked at He Yan's helpless look with great pleasure, and walked forward slowly with the bowl of porridge in his hand.

"What can I do to you?" He Yan muttered to herself. After a moment, she smiled a little, turned around, and walked towards the scarred man. He Yan kicked the man who was drinking the porridge in the bowl. He Yan kicked him and hit his knees. The man's legs went weak and he almost knelt down. He staggered a few steps and stood still. But the porridge in his hand was all spilled on the ground, leaving no trace. Seeing this, he turned his head in anger and saw that it was He Yan. He gritted his teeth and said, "You!"

"Me?" He Yan said with a smile, "I did it, who can testify? What can you do to me?"

The boy's eyes were full of cunning and a hint of provocation, which made people very angry. Scarface raised his fist and was about to step forward.

"Hey, what do you want?"

At this moment, a voice rushed out from the side. It was Hong Shan who came over, and Shi Tou. Xiao Mai saw He Yan talking to the scarred man for a long time, and guessed that something might have happened, so he sent his eldest brother and Hong Shan over.

Hong Shan and Shitou were not as easy to bully as He Yan. Both of them looked strong and healthy. The scarred man did not act impulsively. He just snorted coldly, glared at He Yan, and said, "Just wait for me!" Then he turned and left.

The tone was extremely vicious and full of threats.

"What's wrong with you?" Hong Shan asked, "What happened?"

"He took my meat bun, so I gave him vegetable porridge, it's fair." He Yan tried to keep it simple. Hong Shan understood immediately, looked at He Yan, sighed, "Why are you so angry with him? You should have just been patient."

"Why should I endure it?" He Yan asked.

When she was in the army, she often encountered this kind of thing. In the barracks, it was common for the strong to bully the weak. When she was in the barracks, it was common for her to have her food robbed. If her brothers in the same tent had not felt sorry for her and gave her a share of their food, she might have starved to death.

The coach in the barracks could stop the conflict in public, but it was impossible to stop this kind of stealing in secret. Besides, she was too weak at that time, so weak that even the coach was too lazy to care about her, let alone to seek justice for her. Until later, when she became stronger, no one dared to steal her food. Later, she became the commander herself, and ordered her new soldiers not to steal people's food or bully the weak. Once discovered, they would be punished by military order.

Who knew that she would encounter the same thing again after her rebirth. But this time, she was no longer the poor recruit who had just entered the army, trembling with fear and dared not speak out when she was wronged. Even if Hongshan and Shitou had not appeared just now, she would have been able to teach this scarred man a lesson.

"That man is called Wang Ba," Hong Shan said, "He was originally a mountain bandit, and I don't know how he ended up joining the army. He is the most vicious of Master Liang's men, and I heard from others that he kills people like flies. You provoked him today, and he will bear a grudge against you and will definitely set a trap for you in the future. Brother Shitou and I can't follow you every day. If he takes advantage of you... your life will be very difficult."

"I can't just accept it when he steals my things. Brother Shan, you have to believe that if he steals my things the first time, he will do it again. If he steals my things every day, will I still be able to live?" He Yan said, "There is no such unfair thing in the world."

"Things in this world are not fair." The one who spoke was the usually taciturn Shi Tou. He looked at He Yan and shook his head gently, seemingly not agreeing with her actions just now. "You are too impulsive."

"If there is no fairness, then fight for it yourself. If you can't fight for fairness because you are too weak, then work hard to become stronger." He Yan smiled slightly, "If fists are the way to go here, then let him come to me. I promise... to let him know what fairness is."

The young man spoke lightly, his expression was calm, and there seemed to be a faint smile in his clear pupils. The wind blew, making his hairband flutter. He didn't look like a soldier, but a young man on horseback in the capital. I should have said something like "a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger", but when I met those eyes, I couldn't say anything.

Is it true that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger?

He was confident, not reckless.

Shitou and Hongshan said nothing more. The two accompanied He Yan to the tree. Xiaomai knew that He Yan's meat bun was stolen. He felt very sorry for a while, and finally said awkwardly: "It's okay, Brother He, we can go up the mountain in a few days. I'll make a few slingshots to shoot birds, or make a few traps to catch rabbits. We can eat wild game then, which is much more delicious than the meat in the meat bun!"

He Yan laughed and agreed happily. After finishing the porridge in the bowl, he put his hands behind his head and leaned against the tree trunk to take a nap.

The sun shone lazily, and there was a rare moment of coolness under the tree. She closed her eyes, her mind in turmoil.

Although it was a pity to lose a meat bun, she didn't have to worry about it. When they were really on the march, sometimes the military pay couldn't keep up, and they were forced to defend the city. Not to mention meat buns, let alone vegetable porridge, sometimes they had to chew on tree bark and grass roots. At the worst time, she even ate Guanyin soil, which made her stomach bloated and uncomfortable, but she was determined to defend the city at the risk of her life.

Compared to that time, this is already very happy.

But... the wind blew across her cheeks, and He Yan raised her lips. If she guessed correctly, it would be five days at most. After five days, skills training should begin. Some people would be assigned to be platoon members. With her current physical strength, she would probably be qualified to participate in skills training, but how could she demonstrate her value in the shortest time and prove that she could go to the Vanguard Battalion?

This is a problem.
