Chapter 434 The Real Beating
Chapter 434 The Real Beating
It’s okay to be a herdsman, after all, they have done it before and it is considered a skilled job.
But they soon discovered that being a herder was not easy and life was too hard.
In order to prevent being discovered by the Ming army, the Yinshan tribe of more than 20,000 people gathered by Barsborot had to hide in the Yinshan Mountains, and at most they would move around near the foothills of the Yinshan Mountains.
After all, they were the Mongolian tribes that had been dispersed before and were gathered together again, so they did not have enough livestock and daily necessities. In addition, they only dared to move around near the Yinshan Mountains, which resulted in them not having enough pasture to graze cattle and sheep. This also had a significant impact on their animal husbandry, which was their main source of food. If animal husbandry was affected, their lives would also be affected.
In short, the quality of life is worse than before.
Chenggeltu was driving a dozen sheep back home. These sheep were lost while grazing and he had just found them in a ravine.
He was one of the dozen young men who had just defected. He had been in the Khan's new tribe for seven or eight days. He had been herding sheep during these ten days. It was midsummer, and the various plants in the valley were enough for the sheep to eat. However, the worst thing about herding in the mountains was that the terrain was complex, and the sheep could easily run away. It was then very troublesome and energy-consuming to find them. After all, he had to herd two or three hundred sheep by himself.
Cheng Geletu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he drove the sheep into the sheepfold. It was not yet dark. If it were dark, it would be even harder to find the sheep.
He bolted the door of the sheepfold and walked into the yurt nearby.
"Turga, I'm starving! What are we going to eat tonight?" Chenggeltu said to a young man in the yurt.
"They only gave us some whole-grain cakes and milk skin today," replied Turga, who was also one of the dozen or so young people who had just come over.
"Give it to me quickly!" Cheng Geletu said. He was not picky at all. He took a piece of yellow-green cake and started eating.
The texture of the pancake is very rough, and I don’t know what is put in it. It is irritating to the throat and the taste is not good. If it weren’t for the milk skin, Chenggeltu would be really hard to eat.
Cheng Geletu ate two pieces of bread and stopped. He was not full yet. Even if the bread tasted bad, he could have eaten another piece. But he stopped because if he ate more, there would not be enough for others.
He felt that he had lost a lot of weight after being here for more than ten days. It was because he did not eat well or eat enough every day.
"Look what this is." Cheng Geletu took out a dozen red fruits from his sheepskin bag.
"Where did it come from?" Turga took the fruit in surprise.
"I found a fruit tree and picked all the ripe fruits on it. I will share one with my brothers later." Cheng Geletu said with a smile.
There was no other way, because the food provided by the tribe was not enough, so they would collect some berries or wild fruits to fill their stomachs while grazing. Chenggeltu was particularly lucky today, as he found a fruit tree that had never been discovered by anyone.
"Okay, brothers will be very happy." Turga happily collected the fruits.
The difficult living conditions brought these dozen young people with similar experiences together to help each other.
They were also assigned to the settlement where Daiqin Taiji was.
Soon, a dozen young men came back with their livestock. They returned to the yurt and ate cakes and fruits.
Everyone is not in a good condition, which shows that the ten days here are not easy.
They ate the dry and hard biscuits in silence, smelled the aroma of barbecue in the air, and heard the music, but they had already faced the reality and knew that it had nothing to do with them. They knew that it was Daiqin Taiji's meal. Daiqin Taiji and his family and subordinates were the few people in this settlement who could eat meat.
"I miss the salted fish from Tangshan. It's funny. I thought it was too salty and now it tastes salty," a young man suddenly said. This person's words caused a stir in the yurt and brought back memories for everyone present.
They were all taken to the Kailuan Coal Mine in Tangshan to dig coal for a year, but the brainwashing was not very successful for various reasons. However, they can be regarded as people who have seen the world.
Chenggeltu was about to say something when he heard a burst of scolding and crying coming from the yurt next to him.
"Why are there three sheep missing? Whose sheep are missing? Come out quickly!" A ferocious voice rang out.
"Your sheep are missing! Did you eat them secretly?" The vicious voice continued.
"Sir, how dare I eat Taiji's sheep? The sheep was lost, and I couldn't find it until dark." A timid voice sounded.
"Lost? How dare you come back?"
Then there was the sound of whips hitting people and screams for mercy.
Cheng Geletu and the other dozen people listened with sorrowful expressions on their faces.
"Stop fighting!" A deep voice suddenly joined in.
"Sir, why are you here?" The vicious voice suddenly became flattering.
"What if you keep beating them here and your screams disturb Master Taiji's mood for dinner? Take them outside and beat them!" The deep voice sounded again.
"You are the one who is most careful. I will do it right away." The vicious voice continued to ring out.
Then Chenggeltu and the others heard the crying sound from next door getting farther and farther away.
The noise from the next door disappeared, and the yurt where Chenggeltu was located fell into a deathly silence.
They stayed in Tangshan for a year but were not successfully brainwashed. After being divided into pastures and livestock, they were still willing to defect to the Mongol Khan. But after staying here for more than ten days, they suddenly realized that what their teachers in Tangshan said before made so much sense!
It is true that Daiqin Taiji, a Mongolian noble, was too inhumane in that he really treated them like animals and did not pamper them at all.
Normally, under such a difficult environment, he should relax the exploitation of the lower classes, but he has intensified the exploitation and control of the lower classes.
In the past ten days, I have used ironclad facts to vividly prove to Chenggeltu and others that what the teachers in Tangshan said was correct.
It also showed them the necessity of class struggle.
Even though they were ordinary herdsmen who had never received prenatal education, they began to awaken after this experience and this strong contrast.
"What sin have we committed? We actually did such a stupid thing." Turga lamented in a low voice.
Everyone knows that the stupid thing Turga mentioned was going to Barsboroth. Now everyone regrets coming here.
