"Fourth squad leader, is Liu Pet here?" The voice of the instructor was heard outside the residence.

Liu Pet hurriedly put down the book, and at the same time felt a sense of relief in his heart. The content of these textbooks is not easy, and the troops are on a combat mission this time, and they did not bring their teachers with them. Liu Pet, who was self-taught, was stumped by math after reading a few pages. After scratching his ears and cheeks for a long time, the instructor appeared and solved Liu Pet's problem. He felt that he could put down his textbook with a clear conscience.

"Instructor. Liu pet is in. The squad leader said.

"I'm going to transfer him to the company to do errands, and I'm going to call him." The instructor said.

Hearing this, Liu Chong's heart fluctuated a little, it seems that the instructor came to ask for someone not to be joking. Just when Liu Pet began to think about whether he could get things done well, he heard the squad leader reply: "...... Instructor, our company is also busy. Can you find someone else? ”

The instructor replied, "What Liu Pet is doing is also for the sake of fighting. If those captured Mingjiao members can go home with peace of mind, they will stay at home honestly. That would save us a lot of energy. ”

When Liu Pet heard this, his heart suddenly brightened, it turned out that his task was to reassure those captives. Thinking back to the captured captives, they looked quite uneasy.

"Instructor, if they are uneasy, will our troops be at ease? With this effort, it is better to reassure the troops. The squad leader replied with a snort.

The instructor replied, "In Jiangxi, these people are the local masters, and we are foreign guests. If the host family is not at ease, can we, the guests, be at ease? What's more, we came in. Replace it with your home, you think about it. ”

Liu Pet felt very completely understandable, and his family was so frightened that he fled back to his hometown to hide when Mongolia came in. For this reason, Liu favored his father Liu Jingwen and lost his official position. So when it comes to the Mongols, Liu Jingwen's attitude is very tough: 'You have to fight those invaders to the end'.

What is the reason for Dad's patriotic enthusiasm, Liu Pet doesn't want to delve into it. However, that kind of uneasiness and fear, Liu Pet completely empathizes. Listening to the instructor's patient explanation, Liu Pet admired it very much. If Liu Chong's father faced these problems, he would probably raise his eyebrows and shout, "Where is so much nonsense!"

In the end, the squad leader fully understood the instructor's thoughts, but in fact, he didn't understand and couldn't stop the instructor's orders. The squad leader called Liu Pet and asked him to follow the instructor. On the way, the instructor asked Liu Chong, "Do you think it is appropriate for the two brothers to be in the same unit?" ”

"Huh?" Liu Pet was stunned, he didn't expect the instructor to ask this question. Liu Pet didn't know whether it was suitable or not, but he replied according to the content of the book he had read: "Fight tiger brothers, go into battle with father and son." It should be appropriate. ”

The instructor didn't give any answer to Liu Chong's question, and he continued to ask, "You can feel that your squad leader actually doesn't want you to come to me." ”

Liu Pet nodded, he did faintly feel the resistance of the squad leader. In the military, the emphasis is on obedience to orders, and instructors are also relatively high-level personnel among commanders, and it is not the turn of a squad leader to speak like this. Then Liu Pet listened to the instructor and suddenly sighed, "At that time, I heard Taiwei Zhao say that you can't let your relatives in the same unit in the army, and I thought the same as you at that time." Now I know that what the captain said is correct. ”

Hearing that this matter was actually connected with Zhao Taiwei, especially listening to the instructor actually listening to Zhao Taiwei's lecture, Liu Meng couldn't help but ask: "Is it Zhao Taiwei?" ”

"Of course it's Captain Zhao!" The instructor replied almost reflexively. After answering, he glanced at Liu Pet with a sharp gaze, and Liu Pet stuck out his tongue in fright.

The instructor didn't say anything about it, he explained, "Your squad leader's brother was killed by the Ming Sect in this battle. That's why he hates being like this. Don't tell him these things when you go back. ”

Liu Pet suddenly realized. Reflecting on the instructor's statement in his heart, Liu Pet felt that these seniors were amazing. He even felt that these people were more powerful than his father, and his father Liu Jingwen couldn't tell the analogy of 'host and guest'.

The instructor did not directly ask them to speak to the captives, but asked a few selected soldiers to speak first. Liu Pet himself has always been the one who listens to others, and now that he wants to speak to others, and he is being waited for by a group of people to speak, he is naturally very nervous in his heart. Trying to open his mouth to speak, he found that his face was hot as if it was about to burn, his heart was beating so fast, and he couldn't make a sound after his mouth was opened.

Looking at this performance, the instructor sighed, and he asked Liu Pet to come down and replace it with other fighters. The result was the same, everyone blushed and their necks were thick. Even if something is said, the meaning is unclear and the words are unknown.

The instructor sighed softly, "Comrades, we did the same when we were training as a lieutenant, don't feel embarrassed. At that time, the lieutenant asked us to recite the poems that had been written. If any of you can memorize a poem, memorize a few paragraphs first. ”

These people looked left and right, and finally Liu Pet stood up and memorized a paragraph, "The day is at the end of the mountain, and the Yellow River flows into the sea......"

When he finished memorizing, the instructor said, "Oh, one more time." ”

"Leaving the grass on the plain, one year old and one withered ......glory," Liu Pet obediently recited a paragraph.

The instructor turned to look at the others, "It's your turn." ”

“…… We haven't learned to memorize poetry. The other warriors replied embarrassedly.

"Then take the textbook and read a paragraph." The instructor commanded.

For the first two days, the gang was doing desensitization training. It is to make them ignore the eyes of others and just say what they should say. Even though they were elected, two days later they were still red-faced when they spoke in public.

When the preliminary work was done, the instructor gave them a written statement and asked them to start reading it aloud. When you're almost done, let's get started. The previous talk was messy, and Liu Pet still thought it was a little funny. When he went up to speak, he began to feel his face blush and his heart beat when he began to speak, and what he thought was clear became complete chaos.

But looking at the gaze below, Liu Pet didn't want to behave the same as what he mocked, so he said according to the words that he could organize in the chaos: "Does the big guy think that the court is angry with you?" You just don't understand the court's intentions. If you want to rebel in the first place, then you have the opportunity to rebel. But you did not rebel. When you raise your army, it is the Mongols who are fighting. The enemies of the imperial court were also Mongols. So the court and everyone are together. After that, the court and the big guys fought, because those leaders of the Ming Sect forced the big guys to be hostile to the court. It's not that the court has any grudges with the big guys. Now that those leaders of the Ming Sect have run away, don't be afraid, the imperial court will not harm your lives. It's just that the merits of your fight against Mongolia are offset by the sins and deeds of the hostile court, and the court will send you some rations, so you can go home. I don't think it's worth it for everyone, if you are with the imperial court, you must be rewarded for your achievements in fighting Mongolia. However, if everyone can tell the news of the head of the Ming Sect to the imperial court, the imperial court will definitely reward everyone. The news of the sect leader, the reward for copper coins ......"

Liu Pet initially felt that he was a little too blind when he was stupid, but later when he saw everyone staring at him intently, and that kind of listening expression, Liu Pet didn't know what he was fooling at all. Anyway, under the high level of tension, I was dizzy. Finally he was too nervous to speak, so he stopped. Dizzy, Liu Pet saw that the instructor actually began to applaud, and the comrades-in-arms who were with him also began to applaud. This made Liu Pet understand, he didn't know what he said.

One day later, Liu Pet began to tell the captives about the policies of the imperial court. Although he was still nervous, Liu Pet finally persevered. The captured Mingjiao followers listened to this rhetoric, which centered on 'offsetting merits and demerits,' and their reactions were obviously very good. After they listened to the narration and got the food they had to eat on the way home, although they were still nervous, their hostility greatly reduced in the face of Song Jun's reaction.

Cremation was popular in the Song Dynasty, and even more so for Mingjiao congregation. Before the captives whose relatives died in battle returned home, the Song army helped them incinerate their bodies and let them return to their hometowns with the ashes of their relatives. For those who were injured, the Song army doctors tried their best to treat them, and the minor injuries had been taken out of lead, bandaged and recuperated. Their relatives were also worried that the imperial court would change their fortunes, so they left a few or a dozen of their fellow villagers to take care of them, and the others rushed home first.

After seven or eight days, this operation was finally preliminarily completed. And some of the wounded had the problem of suppuration, and Liu Chong, as a newly appointed officer and soldier who was captured, had to see maggot therapy. Although he was extremely uneasy in his heart, Liu Pet also instinctively knew that if he showed a panicked look, those prisoners who were treated would be even more panicked. He could only watch as the tiny maggots feasted on the suppurating wounds and turned into a big white ball.

Fortunately, the practice of martial arts in the Great Song Dynasty prevailed, and everyone knew that this kind of wound could easily kill people. As a result of this treatment, the mortality rate dropped to less than 5%. The Ming Sect members who were treated couldn't help but secretly ask Liu Pet if the official army had learned any spells.

Liu Pet simply told this group of sect members that the officials and soldiers had always had a lot of spells, but they didn't use them because they didn't want to kill more. To Liu Chong's surprise, these Mingjiao sect members didn't believe it at all after hearing this. This made Liu Pet feel that he had no talent to engage in the Daoist Sect at all.

By the twelfth of February, the work was over. The captured Mingjiao members who were still in good health had already returned to their hometowns at this time, and the plan for the year was in the spring, and the officers and soldiers still had food to eat. These people in Mingjiao had to rely on their own farming to make a living. If they can't sow and plow, they will have to go hungry this year.
