Yongfeng, Nanxiaochang.

There were soldiers all over the city walls surrounding the school grounds, pacing back and forth. They were holding crossbows and their eyes were always staring at the Zhou soldiers in the school grounds.

The school grounds were filled with Zhou soldiers.

These people were just piled up in the school grounds. They were all sitting on the ground, dejected and in ragged clothes. Some were lying motionless with blood still flowing on their bodies.

They are still alive at this moment, but they are also dead.

Some people recited scriptures in a low voice out of fear, while others missed their parents at home and shed tears silently.

Unlike Qi soldiers, the proportion of Han people among Zhou soldiers was extremely high.

The Xianbei have lived in this land for many years. It is not easy to tell the difference between them and the Han people just from their appearance. However, some subtle differences can be seen in the form of hair accessories and beards.

Most of these Zhou soldiers wore Han hair accessories and beards.

Because this place is close to Wuchuan and other towns, their appearance is no different from that of Wuchuan soldiers, almost the same. Among them, there are also some Zhou soldiers who came from Xiliang, and their appearance is a little different.

An atmosphere of despair enveloped the entire school grounds.

The prisoners didn't know what they were facing.

The school gate was slowly pushed open, and several civil servants were seen walking into the school grounds under the protection of soldiers. They looked at the many prisoners in front of them and accurately found the wounded soldiers among them.

Zhou Bing did not have any surprises.

In the past, when they captured Qi people, they would first clear out the wounded soldiers, leaving only the strong ones to serve as civilian husbands.

Chu Jiande walked up to a wounded soldier and lowered his head to check his injuries.

The wounded soldier struggled to get up, his eyes full of fear, "I'm fine, I'm fine, I can still do things! I can still get up!"

Chu Jiande laughed and said, "Don't be afraid, my general never kills prisoners."

As he spoke, he asked the people on the side to take out the gauze, and motioned to a few young people to come closer. While treating him, Chu Jiande told the people behind him, "Like this, you have to find a way to stop the bleeding first. If the blood loss is too large,

If there are too many, it will be hard for gods to save you. Look at this position, you have to stop the bleeding."

The prisoner's eyes widened as he watched Chu Jiande fidgeting with his wounds.

He didn't know what the other party was doing.

Chu Jian quickly treated the wound with expert skills, and then ordered the young men to go around for treatment.

He himself shuttled back and forth to watch these military doctors treating the wounded.

The people of Zhou were a little surprised when they watched them rescuing the wounded, and did not dare to say anything.

On the wall of the school grounds, Liu Taozi stood high, staring at the prisoners below.

Xu Zhicai was standing next to him, still a little confused at the moment.

During these days, he was almost driven along by a fast horse, covering a distance of more than a thousand miles. If he hadn't been in good health, he would have died on the way.

Xu Zhicai looked at Chu Jiande's behavior below, "Are you using Zhou soldiers to train as military doctors?"

"These are local doctors who have just been recruited."

"It's used for consultation at the Yamen."

"They lack experience. They just have a chance to practice their skills, and then they will sit in Yongfeng."

Xu Zhicai slowly looked at Liu Taozi.

There really is an "official hospital" in Daqi. The temple has arranged doctors to consult in every county government office, which is called a "sick room". You only need to pay to see a doctor. The service targets are generally officials and soldiers, while for the lower class

For the common people, there is a "House of Sorrow", which charges lower fees and serves the general public. As the old saying goes, except that no one follows it, everything is so perfect.

Xu Zhicai asked: "Under the general's rule, are the wards full?"

"Chu Gong summoned many of his fellow disciples to come, which is quite sufficient."

Xu Zhicai couldn't help but sigh: "They say generals are good at fighting, but I think generals are no less good at governing."

"I don't understand politics."

Liu Taozi said in a low voice: "I just make the various systems enforceable."

"Land equalization, recruitment of soldiers, wards, schools, and assessments are all systems that existed in the past. I just arranged for the right people to implement the policies smoothly."

Xu Zhicai smiled and said: "That's why I say the general is good at governing."

"To govern the world, it is not about who has better ideas, but about who can implement what he says."

"There is no shortage of benevolent policies in Daqi, but no one implements the equalization of land. The cultivated land falls into the hands of the powerful. The examinations in the schools have become empty words. This is even more true in the wards. They have been in arrears with the doctors' fees for years. If the treatment is

No, I have to kill people to vent my anger."

"Having a general at the frontier is a blessing to the people in the frontier!"

Xu Zhicai praised sincerely.

Liu Taozi then looked at him and said, "I heard Mr. Chu say that your medical skills are very superb."

Xu Zhicai had calmed down at this moment and was no longer as frightened as when he first met Liu Taozi. He smiled and said: "I know a little about medical skills, but I not only know medical skills, astronomy and geography, many classics, and the principles of governing the country."

I know everything about the strategy."

"oh?"

"Now that the general has obtained Yongfeng, he will be able to use Yongfeng as the main force to block the Zhou people, so that the frontier fortress will no longer be attacked and plundered, so that he can recuperate, hoard money and food, and attack everywhere, constantly expanding his advantage, forcing the enemy to divide his troops to guard

, but how?"

"That's right."

"In that case, general, I have asked myself to govern Yongfeng. There are many capable people under the general's command. It's just that the general has acquired new lands, so they must all be of great use."

"I'm not good at military affairs, but I know how to govern the land. Yongfeng has plenty of money and food, and a large amount of cultivated land. There are also many civilians. In the future, military supplies will be arranged, and farming will be appeased. These are not things that strong generals can do easily. If a general is pure

With Yongfeng as a fortress, there is no need to govern it. It only needs to be garrisoned with brave soldiers. However, if the general wants to use Yongfeng as his priority to control the surrounding garrisons and tire the people, he must choose people who know these principles.

Come and govern.”

Xu Zhicai spoke very fast, and then he expressed many of his governance ideas.

Looking at Liu Taozi's surprised face, Xu Zhicai explained: "General, you brought me here to see the doctors. You want me to take over the affairs of the hospital."

"I can do both without delay. I can take care of the hospital affairs smoothly. I can also teach doctors like Chu Gong to sit in various places. If the general still has concerns, he can let me take charge of the hospital first and see the results."

"I have studied hard since I was a child and have also held important positions. I will never let my lord down."

Liu Taozi ignored him, but looked at the prisoners, "Although these prisoners surrendered, most of them are strong, and many of their families are under the rule of the Zhou people. It is difficult to appease them. What do you think we should do?"

Xu Zhicai smiled and said: "My lord, back then Yuwentai and King Gao fought in Shayuan."

"Yu Wentai captured 80,000 elite soldiers in one battle. He kept those who were willing to follow him and released the rest back to their hometowns."

"From then on, Da Qi no longer dared to easily lead an army to conquer the Puppet Zhou Dynasty."

"If my lord wants to save Yongfeng in a short period of time, he can execute them all. But if he has a long-term plan, he can follow Yu Wentai's example."

Liu Taozi nodded.

"You will be the one to manage Yongfeng's affairs."

"Thank you, Lord!!"

Liu Taozi walked down the city wall and led everyone into the school grounds. The prisoners were frightened and looked towards the entrance.

Liu Taozi looked at the many prisoners in the school grounds. There were many garrison troops in Yongfeng, but the commander was an incompetent man. After leading the rout and escaping back to Yongfeng, he abandoned the city and fled, leaving Yongfeng with no soldiers.

After being organized, they became Liu Taozi's prisoners. In addition to Yongfeng, there were also several surrounding garrison towns. Those few garrison towns that had no time to escape became Liu Taozi's prisoners.

Although the number of prisoners here is not as exaggerated as 80,000, there are still more than 10,000.

More than 10,000 elite soldiers were lost in the First World War, which was an extremely heavy blow to the border defense.

Liu Taozi looked at everyone and told the generals on the left and right, "If they are willing to stay and fight with me, let them in. If they want to go back, then give them some food and let them go back."

The soldiers went out everywhere and began to announce Liu Taozi's orders.

At this moment, the school grounds were in an uproar.

The ecstasy of the soldiers blew away the haze of despair just now.

There were scribes who helped with the inventory, some soldiers were willing to join Liu Taozi, and some were eager to leave.

The gates of Yongfeng City were opened wide, and the prisoners hurriedly left.

Some people ran away, and some people bowed in the direction of the official office.

Zhou Sheng left Yongfeng without looking back.

He was a soldier under Han Xiong. When Han Xiong went out with Yang Zhong, their army was sent to Yongfeng to reinforce and garrison.

But the failure came so suddenly that he himself did not realize what was happening and became a prisoner of the enemy.

Just when he lost hope for life, the enemy let him go, gave him some food, and let him leave.

Zhou Sheng was accompanied by several colleagues at this moment, and these people, like him, were Han Xiong's subordinates.

They did not dare to delay and ran quickly towards the nearest Shiya Town.
