That is a huge and boundless square.
In the eyes of great Confucian scholars and other Confucian students, this square can accommodate at least tens of thousands of people!
Looking around, I saw wooden stools placed on the huge square. The shape looked rough and the workmanship looked very solid.
However, if only 10,000 wooden stools were placed in front of them, they would not be shocked at all!
What shocked them was the man on the wooden bench!
Those are children sitting upright and motionless!
I saw them with straight heads, straight necks, and backs as straight as swords. They were reading articles under the guidance of the Master. Only their mouths moved to make reading sounds, and nothing else moved.
Tens of thousands of children, lined up in square formations, look like a straight line horizontally and vertically. This situation is so shocking!
Confucian students are both civil and martial arts practitioners, and they all start practicing martial arts from a young age. They have also had the experience of practicing martial arts and studying at the same time!
However, tens of thousands of young children all showed the same martial arts posture, their bodies motionless, and only the sound of reading came from their mouths. This scene really shocked them!
They saw that these boys were not only reading books, not only practicing martial arts, but also practicing military law!
This is a harsh military law that Confucian disciples have never seen before!
That kind of solemn, neat, serious, and motionless overall movement cannot be achieved even by the most elite imperial guards of the Great Xia Empire!
But, they saw it here!
They saw it in the tens of thousands of children in the deserted state!
Suddenly, these children were no longer children in their eyes, but a group of capable warriors!
Just imagine, when these tens of thousands of children grow up, in five or ten years, the world of Huangzhou will have tens of thousands of capable warriors!
What kind of behemoth will the barren state become at that time?
The more I think about it, the more frightened I become!
Suddenly.
The great Confucian scholars and those Confucian students thought of the enlightenment plan of the King of Huangzhou, which was to enlighten all the children between the ages of seven and twelve in Huangzhou!
At that time, the Mohist giant believed that King Huangzhou's move was putting the cart before the horse and wasting huge manpower and material resources, which would definitely outweigh the gain!
But at this moment, they want to capture the Mohist giant to see the scene in front of them!
I believe he will also be shocked by it!
The Confucian scholars and Confucian students thought more and more, and glanced around the huge square. They found that there were classrooms on all sides of the huge square, and the sound of reading came from inside.
There must be more than ten thousand people in the classroom!
The eyes of the great Confucian scholar and all the Confucian scholars burst with light... Counting the children of the millions of people in Huangzhou, there should be tens of thousands!
Five years from now, if these 100,000 children can grow up smoothly, it will be very exciting to have a 100,000 young people with both civil and military abilities in Huangzhou!
At this time, the great Confucian and other Confucian scholars became more and more shocked as they thought about it. The more they thought about it, the more terrifying they felt about the power contained in Huangzhou!
In the team of Confucian scholars, the spies arranged by Emperor Xia had brilliant eyes!
This time, finally something was reported!
It will definitely make a difference!
Suddenly, a sudden change occurred.
"Bang bang bang..."
I saw young children falling straight from the wooden bench to the ground, their faces pale, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead!
At this time.
Female soldiers from the medical camp dressed in white came in one after another and quickly treated the young children!
Then, sad voices reached the ears of the Confucian students one by one: "Master, there is no hope of salvation!"
"Before they entered the wilderness, they were suffering from diseases, and coupled with the long-term lack of food, their bodies had already reached the point where their oil was exhausted. After entering our wilderness state, although we tried our best to extend their lives, it was still too late. !”
This time, at least one-third of the children in the square fell off the wooden benches.
Each master said sadly: "Then take him away!"
"Have a good burial!"
"yes!"
The female warrior in the medical camp closest to the Confucian students said: "Master, there is one more thing I want to tell you. Due to malnutrition since childhood, most of these children have difficulty growing taller!"
"Most of them can no longer practice martial arts. If they continue to overdraw their potential, they will die like these children!"
Master's tone became even sadder: "Stop training and take a rest!"
"Huhuhu..."
Only then did a child relax and start moving.
Then.
I saw female soldiers from the medical camp holding body bags one after another, picking up the young children who had fallen to the ground into the body bags, and carrying them away directly.
This scene shocked all the Confucian students even more!
If there were 10,000 children in the huge square, at least 3,000 were taken away this time, and the loss reached 30%.
The fat white scholar pointed at the square and stammered: "Is it really hopeless?"
The civil servant in Huangzhou nodded and said: "There is no way to save him!"
"Such things happen every day in Huangzhou, we are used to it!"
Having said this, the civil servant of Huangzhou pointed at the active children in the square and said, "Look, do they have rosy complexions?"
The Confucian scholars followed the Huangzhou civil servant's fingers and saw that the faces of those children looked shiny: "They are rosy!"
"Why......"
The civil servant in Huangzhou lamented, which made the hearts of all the Confucian scholars sink: "That's a reflection!"
"These children will not live long!"
"ah?"
All the Confucian scholars said in shock: "No way!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the children that the Huangzhou civil official was referring to suddenly fell to the ground stiffly and stopped breathing!
After the female soldiers from the medical camp inspected them, they directly wrapped the children away in shrouds!
At this time, the atmosphere in the entire academy was very heavy!
at this time.
The Huangzhou civil servant pointed at a group of children again and was about to speak.
But, it felt like my mouth was covered by a fat hand!
I saw the fat white Confucian scholar, regardless of etiquette, directly covering the mouth of the Huangzhou civil servant, and said with a dark face: "You have a poisonous mouth, don't point your finger or say anything!"
"If you point any further, the children will be gone!"
The civil servant of Huangzhou pulled his hand away: "What I mean is that those children can survive!"
All the Confucian scholars breathed a sigh of relief!
The civil servant in Huangzhou said seriously: "Children of poor people have the luxury of even having enough to eat. Therefore, the number of people who can grow up smoothly without dying prematurely will not exceed 30% of ordinary families!"
"After these children entered our Huangzhou, the Royal Palace of Huangzhou has tried every means to save them, but there are still very few that can be saved!"
Yes, in this era, countless children from poor families die in infancy and starve to death. It is really not easy for them to grow up smoothly.
However, the data from the Huangzhou Civilian Newspaper is false!
After the children entered Huangzhou, Xia Tian's instructions were very clear. They must protect and treat them with all their strength, because they are the future of Huangzhou.
Therefore, 90% of children who enter the deserted state can survive.
The 10% of children who died really died as a result of running out of oil.
This is the tragic epitome of poor families in this era!
The civil servant of Huangzhou said seriously: "The prince wants to do his best to let the surviving children grow up safely and learn knowledge, so that they can protect the family and the country in the future and pass on the bloodline to the ethnic group!"
Confucian students were silent!
Originally, they were shocked by Huangzhou's future strength!
Now, they feel that King Huangzhou invested so much manpower and material resources, but only got 30% of the harvest. It may not be worth it!
Moreover, the child in Huangzhou is in poor health, and his future prospects are probably limited!
This is the future of Huangzhou!
It is estimated that even if Huangzhou is given another hundred years, it will not be able to compare with Qingzhou next door!
Some Confucian scholars secretly made a conclusion!
at this time.
On a roof somewhere in the academy.
Zang Yi's words came from the void: "Your Majesty, will they believe what they saw?"
Xia Tian smiled faintly: "Is it important to be true or false?"
"Children are the future of an ethnic group and a fiefdom. If the children are good, the ethnic group and the fiefdom will be better!"
"It is a fact that the children in my Huangzhou fiefdom are in poor health. Putting them in other fiefdoms will no longer be able to restore their vitality. The future of Huangzhou is worrying!"
"So, they won't worry that Huangzhou will become very powerful in the future!"
"As for the teaching model of Huangzhou Academy, I just want them to spread out and let those talents who want to see the truth come to Huangzhou to have a look!"
"Come here, we have a chance to use it for ourselves!"
Zang Yi sincerely praised: "Your Majesty is brilliant!"
Xia Tian looked at the scene of children reading below, Jun's face was full of expectation: "Whether this matter is true or not, it doesn't matter whether others believe it or not!"
"Because if someone doesn't want to believe it, he won't believe it even if it's true!"
at this time.
Inside the academy gate.
The civil servant of Huangzhou stopped talking to the Confucian students and led them into a classroom with a look full of sadness.
All Confucian scholars were shocked again!
What's this?
