Compared with Master Li Zhai and Old Man Xie, who were strictly guarded, those ordinary young and strong, old and weak women and children were much better.

Although those young men are still guarded, they are not strictly guarded, and even as long as they are not too out of line, they can move freely, and some young men who expressed their willingness to contribute to the Tang Dynasty on the spot were released and reunited with their families on the spot.

As for the old and weak women and children, they were arranged to live in temporary wooden huts one after another, and food was distributed to them.

The Tang Dynasty already has a wealth of experience in the handling of prisoners, and the basic process is to first separate the main leaders from the ordinary prisoners, and then distinguish the young and strong, while the old and weak women and children are properly arranged.

Generally speaking, ordinary bandits will not have any rejection of joining Huangzhushan, because in their opinion, they are bandits anyway, and who they give their lives to is not their life, so the handling of ordinary bandits is quite simple, basically a day or two will be most of the release.

If there was a standing army in the past, these young bandits would have joined the standing army on the spot.

As for the leader, it depends on the specific situation, but in most cases, as long as they are willing to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, then they will basically be given better preferential treatment, and it is okay to be an official or a general.

If you don't want to, then you'll be embarrassed, just cut it with a knife!

Li Xuan didn't have the time and mood to deal with those bandit leaders that night, after all, for Li Xuan, the most important thing was the more than four hundred people, not one or two generals who could fight.

The bandit leaders and the like, Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren in the Tang Dynasty are enough to give Li Xuan a headache, although most of these bandit leaders have outstanding qualities, basically their personal martial arts are relatively strong, and they can be used as fierce generals.

But this kind of person is actually becoming more and more difficult to find a suitable position in Li Xuan's newly formed professional army.

The core of the Tang New Army is not the personal martial arts, and the strength of the martial arts of the soldiers and even the generals is not important, but the more important thing is to obey orders.

Because in the combat mode of the Datang New Army, the core is to rely on a tight formation to fight, rather than relying on the bravery of individual soldiers.

At present, among the Tang Dynasty royal divisions, there is only one heavy armor sword and shield team that still attaches more importance to personal bravery, and other spearmen, musketeers, and archers do not have high requirements for personal bravery.

This is also why in the professional army formed by Li Xuan, soldiers were recruited from half of the children and foreign farmers as much as possible, rather than directly including those bandits and old fritters.

Li Xuan got up a little late the next day, and he still had a headache after getting up, he drank a little too much at the celebration state banquet last night, and his body didn't seem to be able to drink very well, often he would be guilty of a few casual drinks, and he would have a hangover reaction when he got up the next day.

However, the hangover will not last, and after freshening up and drinking a bowl of porridge that warms his stomach, his whole body has recovered as before.

When they arrived in the council hall outside, Liu Bagou and the others were already waiting here early.

At present, the Tang Dynasty is a day in normal times, and the court meeting starts at six o'clock in the morning, and it can usually end in about two quarters of an hour, that is to say, the court discussion starts at about half past eight in the morning, and it can end at about nine o'clock.

However, when it comes to some important matters, the court meeting often lasts all morning.

Normally, Liu Bagou and Fang Dongquan would enter the council hall in the 'palace' at eight o'clock and wait for Li Xuan's arrival, and Li Xuan would come over on time every time.

I don't know if other emperors in ancient times got up early in the morning to go to work, and he didn't plan to dig deeper, but for a person with the soul of the afterlife, it was annoying enough to have to go to work every day, and you still want him to go to work before dawn, nonsense.

It's very face-saving to be able to go to work on time at half past eight!

Li Xuan came late today, almost at the end of the day, two quarters of an hour later than usual, but at this time, Liu Bagou and they naturally would not come out and say Li Xuan, you are late for work, and you have to deduct your salary this month.

After he sat on the wooden dragon chair, Liu Bagou, the first assistant, led the ministers to bow and bow, shouting long live.

For others to kneel in front of him if they don't understand, Li Xuan was still a little unaccustomed to it and even opposed it at first, but at the beginning, Li Xuan was just a puppet emperor in this Tang Dynasty.

So he could only think that he couldn't see it, and now that so much time has passed, he has slowly gotten used to it.

After sitting down in the dragon chair, Li Xuan covered his mouth with his hand and yawned, and raised his other hand slightly, and then said in a lazy tone: "Flat!" ”

Li Xuan's demeanor made many people see it, but everyone consciously closed their mouths, even Liu Bagou, who cared most about surface etiquette in the past, chose not to see it.

If it was in the middle of last year, when Liu Bagou and Fang Dongquan had just supported Li Xuan as emperor, if Li Xuan made this move, Liu Bagou would immediately come out to advise, what etiquette, what nonsense such as the great cause of recovering the country.

But now, although Li Xuan is still the emperor of this ravine, Li Xuan today is very different from Li Xuan at the same time last year.

Before, he was just a puppet who was forced to be the emperor, and he was a signboard put up by Liu Bagou and Fang Dongquan, but now, Li Xuan, who single-handedly formed the Guards Army and established a professional new army, has already initially controlled the power.

With the expansion of the Tang Dynasty and the addition of Huang Xueren, Cai Erhu, Wang Wenhua and others, Fang Dongquan and Liu Bagou could no longer cover the sky and control all the affairs of the Tang Dynasty with one hand.

With the increase of power, his emperor gradually became worthy of the name, and everyone's attitude towards him naturally changed.

The beginning of the court discussion was as boring as ever, it was all trivial things, Li Xuan had no interest in interjecting in these matters, let Liu Bagou or Fang Dongquan talk about them, and then the others joined the discussion, and after several of them reached an agreement, Li Xuan would say a quasi-word.

In the whole process, it is not an exaggeration to say that words are like gold.

However, they only fought a battle in Huangzhushan yesterday, and today's affairs naturally cannot only be these trivial matters, but more and more important are yesterday's aftermath affairs, such as the handling of Li Zhai and Old Man Xie.

And just when the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers in the council hall began to talk about how to deal with the main leaders of these bandits, Li Zhaizhu, Old Man Xie and several other bandit leaders were already escorted outside the council hall by a team of soldiers from Huang Zhushan.

Old man Xie and the others had just arrived outside this meeting hall, when they heard a few people walking out quickly, and after these few people talked to the soldiers who escorted Old Man Xie and them, Old Man Xie and they were escorted into the meeting hall by those soldiers.

At this time, Old Man Xie saw the puppet Tang Emperor who caused the surrounding prefectures and counties to tremble: Li Xuan!
