After the outbreak of the Zhao army, the battle ended quickly.

There is an essential gap in the strength of the two sides, and it is not at the same level at all, even Xiang Yan can't make up for it.

The Chu army has never had experience in fighting cavalry, while the Zhao army has experienced a hundred battles, and its experience and skills are not comparable to the Chu army.

"Zhao Jun won." Xiang Yan looked at the comrades around him who were constantly eliminated, and the number had shrunk sharply from more than three times that of Zhao Jun to twice that of Zhao Jun and twice that of Zhao Jun, Xiang Yan understood that it was impossible for him to win.

The reason why the Chu army was able to gain an advantage in front was only because his talent was able to interfere with the judgment of others, confusing the Qiang army and making him think that the Chu army was vulnerable.

Once Zhao Jun seriously dealt with it, even if the Chu army fought three against one, there was no possibility of victory.

"Chu State has no pasture, no cavalry foundation, and no generals who know how to train cavalry to fight, you can start from scratch and grope to this extent, it's already very powerful. If the circumstances are the same, I am not as good as you. Qiang Yan did not taunt Xiang Yan, but said solemnly.

Luck is sometimes more important than hard work, if Xiang Yan was born in the Qin State or the Zhao State. If the Qiang still lived with their ancestors in the Qiang people, perhaps all this today is the result of the complete opposite.

"Next time I encounter it on the battlefield, I won't keep my hand." Xiang Yan looked at Qiang and said seriously.

His strongest ability is not to lead the cavalry charge, but to command a large army in battle, and in this regard, he has absolute self-confidence.

"What do you say?" Huang Xie stepped forward and glared at Xiang Yan.

Xiang Yan suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, now that Zhao and Chu are allies, how can he say that the two countries are at war, doesn't this make everyone unable to get off the stage.

"It is worthy of Zhao State, the cavalry is so powerful, and the general is even more surprising, this competition, my Chu State is willing to gamble and lose. This time, our Chu army obeyed General Pang Xuan's arrangement. Huang Xie said to Pang Xuan with a smile.

Of course, this does not mean that Zhao Jun can do whatever he wants, or let Chu Jun be cannon fodder.

In essence, this kind of agreement does not have any binding force for a strong country like Zhao Chu, and any country can withdraw its troops at any time if it is unhappy, and the other party cannot force it to stay.

It's just that Zhao Jun has a little bit of the initiative and can lead more things before everyone parted ways.

"In that case, we will pull out the camp tomorrow and surround Linzi. Lin Wujun, Chun Shenjun, please also enter the account to discuss military affairs. Pang Xuan stretched out his hand.

……

Zhao Kuo threw all the government affairs to the minister, personally met with these officials, and asked them about their experience in governing the place, whether they encountered any resistance, and even whether there were any difficulties in the family, whether the parents were old, and whether the children were young.

If the parents and children have no one to take care of at home, they can take them to the place where they work, most of the counties in Zhao have official roads, which can lead all the way to Wuyang, and it is very convenient to walk or take a boat.

Zhao Kuo did not sit on a high throne, but sat opposite the officials, talking on an equal footing, or chatting with the officials, inside and outside Handan City, as they walked.

Those ministers are basically older than Zhao Kuo, and many of them are of the same generation as Zhao Sheng, but they are very restrained in the face of Zhao Kuo, but Zhao Kuo always smiles and asks the ministers, if there is anything that needs to be improved in Zhao Guo, or what he has done wrong as a monarch, he can point it out.

Zhao Kuo doesn't like the so-called emperor's mental technique, this kind of thing is placed at the level of Emperor Qin and Han Wu, it may be an artifact, but on Zhao Kuo's body, it is nothing.

Zhao Kuo understands that his advantage is only the vision of more than 2,000 years, compared to wisdom, he does not have an advantage, compared to playing with the heart eye, he can't play the top people of this era.

None of those who can mix officialdom are simple.

So Zhao Kuo never played with them, what to say.

Anyway, I am King Zhao, and I have the final say in Zhao Guo.

The officials have to answer all questions, but most of them are still very restrained, but those students who have just graduated from the college and are about to take office are full of expectations for the future, talk about their ideals and views to Zhao Kuo, and say that they will definitely fight a world in the place where they took office, so that everyone will remember themselves.

They are a group of people with faith in the world, they believe that man will win the sky, and they believe that Zhao Guo and even the world will change because of themselves.

Only when they step out of the academy and face the cruel reality for themselves will they gradually realize that what is taught in textbooks is not necessarily useful, and it is far more difficult for them to gain a foothold in Zhao and realize their ambitions than it is to go to school in the academy.

Zhao Kuo is not just a listener, but also a speaker, and he will discuss certain things with the officials, sometimes even three or four people.

For example, whether it is a crime to hide one's relatives and relatives.

For example, in some places, when the elder brother dies and the sister-in-law marries the younger brother, it violates ethics and morals, and the government should not stop it.

For example, if parents abuse their children, how should the government deal with it and sentence them? Punish? But it doesn't seem to solve the problem, and the child will also be affected.

For example, many places still follow the patriarchal law, and when encountering things, the clan elders deal with them, and the government cannot intervene, and once they intervene, they will suffer the opposition of the entire clan, and even the victims will oppose the government.

And so on and so forth.

Some things can be discussed to achieve a result, and some things cannot be discussed.

Zhao Kuo spent nearly a month meeting with all the incoming officials and students, and then took them to Handan Academy.

Today, Handan University has become the academic and cultural center of the entire Zhao Kingdom and even the world.

Every day, countless ideas collide here, and countless sparks of civilization bloom here.

Officials have a lot of interest in Handan College, they have heard of the name of the college for a long time, but they are busy with government affairs, and they have never had the opportunity to come and have a look.

The majestic city walls, the wide ground, the small bridges and flowing water, and the golden fallen leaves paved the roads with a rattling sound.

"In my old age, I may be able to apply to come to the college for the elderly, and bring a few students out by the way." Most officials thought so.

After a while, everyone came to a lecture hall.

Ben stepped forward and opened the back door, Zhao Kuo turned back to everyone and said: "This kind of class in a big classroom is public, everyone can listen, if you don't want to listen, you can leave." However, students who come in later should enter through the back door and sit in the back so as not to disturb the students in the front row. Even the widows are the same. ”

Everyone looked at the scene in front of them in surprise, in the past, they were studying, and the conditions were better in the hall, and the conditions were almost sitting in the courtyard. Either the teacher and the disciple are sitting, or the teacher is sitting and the disciple is standing, how have you ever seen such a scene.

The classroom is so big, the light transmission is so good, and the students are sitting and the teacher is standing to give them a lecture.

It is worthy of being the largest college in Zhao State, and it is really not comparable to local colleges.

The graduating students of the academy looked unfazed, they had been studying here for several years, and they had long been surprised by this.

"Let's go in and listen for a while, don't make a sound." Zhao Kuo said, leading a group of officials into the classroom.

Only then did the officials realize that the classroom was already full, and there were even people in the aisles.

They don't care, but Zhao Kuo is a dignified monarch.

Zhao Kuo naturally stood behind.

Seeing that Zhao Kuo didn't say anything, the official gradually focused his attention on the podium.

This thin old man is definitely powerful, otherwise it would be impossible for so many people to listen to the lecture below, even if Confucius gave a lecture once.

Zhan He looked up at Zhao Kuo's direction at the back of the classroom, and did not stop lecturing, asking everyone to get up and salute, but continued to lecture:

"Once, Mozi's student Yu Huali didn't understand our school very much, so he asked Yang Zi: 'As long as you pluck a hair on your body, you can benefit the people of the world, can you do it?'

Yang Zi said: "The problems of the world can never be solved by plucking a single hair!" ’

Then he said, 'If you can, would you be willing?' ’

Yang Zi ignored the fowl and left.

After going out, Yu Huali met Yang Zi's student Meng Sunyang, and the two talked about the question just now, and Meng Sunyang said, "I answered for Mr. ’

Meng Sunyang asked the bird: 'If someone says to slap you and give you ten thousand gold, what will you do?' ’

Without hesitation, he replied, 'Of course this is done!' ’

Meng Sunyang asked again: 'If you cut off one of your legs, you can get a country, are you willing?' ’

Slippery was silent for a long time, but did not answer.

Because he knows that the next question is to cut off your head, so that you can get the world whether you want it or not.

So, Meng Sunyang finally said: 'You can't cut off your head, can you cut off your arm?' If you can't cut your arm, can you cut your palm? You can't cut the palm of your hand, but can you shave off the skin? If you can't shave your skin, can you pull out your hair? One thing in ten thousand, how can it be light? ’”

After saying this story, there was silence below, and Zhan He's gaze slowly crossed over everyone's heads, and then said:

"Lose a little bit to benefit the world, not with it! Don't think that individuals can be sacrificed casually because they are small, every individual is a human being, and no one can be sacrificed innocently. ”

"All of you here are all the talents of my Zhao Kingdom, and most of them should be from noble backgrounds, at least their ancestors are nobles. Your ancestors must have done one thing, that is, to use the taxes collected in the state to build palaces, loot people's daughters, travel the mountains and rivers, and so on for personal amusement. ”

"I want to ask you, how many such states still exist today? Why don't these states exist anymore? Because they let others 'lose a little and benefit the world', but they themselves 'know the world and give it to themselves.' They have already monopolized the world, but they will blame others for not pulling out a dime. ”

"Should Chinese people pay taxes? Should. Because without taxes, the state cannot support it, and the army cannot be formed. If the state cannot support it, if the army cannot be formed, there will be no stability in society. If society cannot be stable, there will be no peace for the people, their land will be robbed, and their wives and children will be robbed. But what is the purpose of paying taxes? Is it to know the world and dedicate oneself? No, it's for themselves, for social stability, for the country to be strong, and for themselves to be able to live a better life. Instead of giving the food they had worked so hard to cultivate, the silk they had worked hard to make, and the money they had earned desperately, to the man who enslaved them and exploited them. ”

"Everyone is the elite of my Zhao country, and there should be many people who will enter the officialdom of my Zhao country in the future. I hope that everyone can maintain a sense of awe in their hearts. Chinese people are not objects that you can oppress at will, and they are not individuals who can be innocently sacrificed. They have their own lives, their own thoughts, their own joys and sorrows. ”

"Lose a little bit to benefit the world, not with it! Serve the whole world, don't take it! ”

……

The 600th Zhan He said a lot above, and there was a student question session later, and Zhan He also answered them one by one.

When the students asked questions, Zhao Kuo left the classroom with the officials and did not say a word from beginning to end.

But everyone was thoughtful, they didn't believe that it was a coincidence.

With so many classrooms, they will just happen to meet Zhan He, a famous scholar of the Yang Zhu School, giving a lecture? It also happens to be 'losing a little bit to benefit the world, not with it.'" Serve the world and don't take it. ’？

If they believe, they will be fools.

But Zhao Kuo didn't say it, they couldn't expose it, and besides, they had a class just now, and they gained a lot.

And to put it mildly, Zhan He's words should be most impacted by the monarchs and royal families of various countries, not their officials.

The country belongs to King Zhao, and to put it bluntly, they work for King Zhao.

However, looking at Zhao Kuo's appearance, he didn't seem to be affected at all.

Then, Zhao Kuo took them to another classroom, where Mojia Mofeng was lecturing, and it happened to be what Mozi said, 'Love.' ’

Moding is good for the world, and for it!

After hearing this, everyone was stunned.

Because after listening to what Zhan He said, they felt that what Yang Zhu said made sense, why should the hair on Lao Tzu's body be plucked, why don't you pluck the hair on Lao Tzu?

But after listening to Mofeng's class, I felt that what Mozi said was really reasonable, even if it was bruised from head to toe, and we tried our best, as long as it can be beneficial to the world, we should do it.

Two completely opposite conclusions, they actually think they are all right.

Everyone is a little confused, and the three views shaped by their careers in the past few decades are being impacted. They looked at Zhao Kuo's back and didn't know what Zhao Kuo wanted to express.

Zhao Kuo didn't speak, just took them out of the academy and signaled that they could go back.

The food, drink and Lazar of these officials in Handan are all covered by the imperial court, and they do not need to spend money, including renting carriages, borrowing books, etc., all of which are free, but if you want to buy something, or a few people get together to drink, you must spend your own money.

During this time, they had already turned Handan around, and they were stimulated again today, so everyone was not in the mood to continue to hang out, so they returned to the dormitory early, and those who had a better relationship discussed what King Zhao's intentions were.

The next morning, after the officials had eaten, the guards came to receive them into the palace.

Ordinary people may not be able to see a monarch in their lifetime, and they see each other every day during this time.

Zhao Kuo did not arrange other activities, and still took them to Handan Academy.

However, today's lecture is on Confucian benevolence and courtesy, as well as the rule of law in Legalism.

After listening, they were sent back to the dormitory again.

In this way, for several days in a row, they listened to the lectures of Yang Zhu, Mojia, Confucianism, Legalism, Lao Zhuang, Huang Lao, Bingjia, Peasants, Doctors, and so on.
