Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 443
The survival rate of prisoners of war is half and half, which is understandable.

In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient, and there was no Geneva Treaty. In the eyes of the Tang army, prisoners of war were basically equivalent to livestock, with no human rights at all.

A slight sprain on the road will affect the progress of the whole team. Maybe they will be hacked and thrown into the woods by the general, not to mention sleeping in the open, sick, injured and hungry. As long as there is something wrong with the body, they will basically die .

In this era, the migration of prisoners of war was much more cruel than that of exiled prisoners. Prisoners were escorted thousands of miles away, and there were still human rights to speak of on the road.

Prisoners of war are different. They are not even as good as livestock. Datang has slaughtered cattle for three years without permission. How about slaughtering prisoners of war?not guilty.

Liu Ren is willing to give Li Qinzai the remaining half of his life, which is actually very kind.

"Liu Duhu has worked hard all the way, please sit in the hall, let the officials treat each other with a little wine, and clean up Liu Duhu's dust." Li Qinzai enthusiastically invited Liu Renyuan to the door.

Liu Renyuan was not hypocritical, and walked into the other courtyard boldly.

After a banquet, Li Qinzai deliberately made friends, and Liu Renyuan's attitude towards him became closer and closer.

Of course, the reason for the closeness was not the banquet. In fact, Liu Renyuan envied and respected Li Qinzai.

After the Battle of Baijiangkou, Li Qinzai led more than [-] soldiers from Baekje to the Tang Dynasty. He changed his course on the sea and landed in the Wa Kingdom.

All the lieutenant generals of the Tang Army envied and admired these achievements, and Liu Renyuan was no exception.

Those who can make such feats not only need extraordinary courage, but also have the psychological preparation to be severely punished.

Liu Ren would like to put himself in the situation sometimes. If he had been ordered to lead these [-] soldiers back to Tang, would he have the courage to order the fleet to change course and destroy the country of Wa on the way?

After thinking about it, he still lacked this courage after all. He was afraid that he would not be able to bear the serious consequences of failure.

After a banquet, Liu Renyuan was slightly drunk and it was still early, so he bid farewell to Li Qinzai and staggered away with his generals.

More than a thousand prisoners of war were being guarded by the Li Family Buqu. Li Qinzai walked outside the door while he was a little drunk, and couldn't help frowning after looking around the prisoners.

All of them were as thin as a hozen, and all of them looked pale, obviously very hungry.

More than a thousand people squatted quietly in the open space outside the gate of the other courtyard, attracting crowds of farmers to watch. After hearing that they were prisoners of war of the Baekje Kingdom, the farmers talked like they were watching rare animals.

The prisoners of war were expressionless, and there was a sense of lifelessness in the crowd. They had ignored life and death along the way, and they didn't care about being surrounded by people.

Li Qinzai frowned and said, "Si, take them down and wash them clean. Shave all the hair on their bodies, including their hair. Don't spread the disease to the folks, and then let them have a full meal. Starting tomorrow, the cement kiln will be fired." Leave it all to them."

Liu Asi took the order and escorted the prisoners away with the tribunes.

Before the onlookers dispersed, a farmer hesitated for a long time, then stood up and said, "Wu Shaolang, we can also do kiln firing..."

Li Qinzai understood the meaning of his words, and said with a smile: "There is still a lot of work, not bad for this one. As long as you are willing to do it, I guarantee that you can support your family."

"Let's leave the job of burning the kiln to the prisoners of war. To tell you the truth, burning a cement kiln is very harmful to the body. If you go on for a long time, you will get tuberculosis. I can't harm you, but the prisoners of war don't care. These people are abolished. At worst, let hundreds of people die." Ji sent a group of prisoners of war."

The farmers were stunned, so they dispersed after saluting.

Li Jingxuan still acts as a doctor in the school with a humble attitude.

The responsibilities of the official position of doctor are a bit messy. It not only has the responsibility of urging students to correct their learning attitudes, but also coordinates books, arranges teachers' courses, organizes students to debate rounds of scriptures, and so on.

Of course, Li Jingxuan's responsibilities in the school in Ganjingzhuang were even more chaotic. There was only one teacher in the school, Li Qinzai, and he was not in charge of it. Half of the students were children of the rich and powerful, so he didn't dare to take care of them. Supervise and urge three meals, bow your head and be willing to be a bully.

Speaking of which, Li Jingxuan, a doctor, is really a bit aggrieved. He is a dignified bachelor of Hongwen Museum, who used to be a student of the prince, but now he is basically a security guard and porter.

Not only that, but the students didn't take him seriously.There are two princes, two princesses, and children of various princes and generals in this group of dandy bastards, Li Jingxuan can't afford to offend anyone.

But Li Jingxuan's forbearance is still quite extraordinary. The students abused him thousands of times, and he made the students his first love.

Li Qinzai deliberately kept a distance from him in the past few days. Basically, the relationship between the superior and his subordinates was neither salty nor insipid. The content of the chat was limited to business matters, and he never mentioned private matters. They kept each other in a polite and alienated state.

Li Jingxuan pretended to be wild several times and wanted to drink with Li Qinzai with two altars of fine wine, but Li Qinzai politely refused.

If you are not familiar with each other, don't try to force friendship.

Li Jingxuan was not discouraged, and soon he gained a sense of existence for himself.

Ganjingzhuang Academy only teaches mathematics, and the cultural lessons of the students are actually taught by the students of the Imperial College. Li Qinzai never paid much attention to it, but Li Jingxuan caught the loophole.

So, on the fourth day after Li Jingxuan took office, which was also the day when Li Qinzai was lazy and absent from class, Li Jingxuan walked in in the noisy classroom with a copy of "Book of Rites". Talk about teaching.

There is no need to learn from a teacher, and Li Jingxuan seems to be chatting with his students, starting from the beginning of the "Book of Rites", explaining the scriptures and principles in the "Book of Rites" sentence by sentence in plain language.

Li Sujie and other students are all rebellious playboys, how can they be willing to listen to the class in peace?The only person in the classroom that can suppress them is Li Qinzai.

Li Jingxuan's lecture was naturally ignored. After class, everyone chatted and slept, and those who got impatient even got up and left.

Without the title of teacher and student, Li Jingxuan is just a doctor in the eyes of the students, who cares about mere sixth-rank officials?

In the face of students' indifference, Li Jingxuan didn't mind. He still talked freely, and his lectures were vivid and natural.

The dandies listened impatiently, but the students of the Imperial College studied the scriptures hard since they were young, and were naturally eager for knowledge, so they were quickly attracted by the content of Li Jingxuan's lectures.

In the pre-Qin and Han Dynasties, what etiquette should be used for funerals, what etiquette should be used for marriage, from the small etiquette of speech, food, and sweeping, to the big ones such as official seals, the emperor's enthronement, various dynasties, and various etiquettes. Li Jingxuan explained in detail and vividly .

Gradually, even the dandies quieted down and listened quietly to Li Jingxuan's explanation. Everyone seemed to be hypnotized, their expressions were ethereal, and their thoughts were racing, as if Li Jingxuan had brought them into the world of great controversy thousands of years ago.

After Li Jingxuan closed the book, bowed to everyone in a gentle manner, and then left with a smile, the students slowly came back to their senses.

The dandies gathered together to discuss the content of Li Jingxuan's lecture. Li Sujie, who had been silent for a long time, said slowly: "As expected of a Bachelor of Hongwenguan, there is something, haha."
