Li Yi was most afraid of people competing with him in martial arts, such as wrestling, hand-to-hand combat, flying knives within ten meters, and arrows within fifty meters.
He felt that he had almost zero chance of winning these events. He couldn't even shoot arrows within fifty meters with a submachine gun.
As long as the opponent shot an arrow, it could kill him, not to mention wrestling and hand-to-hand combat.
He could fight with ordinary people, but he couldn't fight with people specially sent by the opponent.
Now, Isinba said that he was sent by Tubo to compete. With the condition of his leg, how could he compete?
If the opponent said to send someone else, it would be easy to deal with. He could close the door and let Guo Ziyi in. Occasionally, he would send someone.
I'm from the Tang dynasty. I'm not bullying you. It's just that you're too weak.
How about I widen the distance, one kilometer. Let's see who's better. I can't kill you with a sniper.
No, I don't need a sniper. I'll use a heavy machine gun. It's lethal at a distance of four kilometers. I'll be done with a burst of shooting.
Since we can't compete in martial arts, let's compete in literature. With your level of technology, I can't kill you.
"They won't compete with me in poetry. I'm going to get all their funds in one go. It's best if they owe me a sum of money."
Li Yi was confident in the competition and asked each other questions.
It couldn't be Tubo's people coming over to ask a few questions. If he answered correctly, the opponent would lose, and if he answered incorrectly, the opponent would win.
They asked each other questions once and counted as a round.
In this way, even if the opponent's questions were too disgusting and he couldn't answer, the opponent couldn't answer the questions he asked.
"Dongzhu, Dongzhu, Winged Knights report that 10,430 captives and six pandas are less than twenty miles away from the west of Chang 'an."
Song De's voice came from outside the room.
"The pandas are here? That's great. None of them died. You've worked hard! "Li Yi first thought of the pandas.
Then he reacted. "Captives, more than ten thousand captives. There's labor force, mining and road construction."
"Third Brother, Sister-in-law, I'll finish eating first. I need to settle down."
Li Yi said to Li Longji and Empress Wang to speed up the meal.
Seeing Li Yi eating so quickly, the little fellow's little mouth moved quickly as well.
In the end, not only did he fail to swallow the chicken blood in his mouth, it fell out instead. He was so anxious that he almost cried.
Li Yi was half full. He put down his chopsticks and ran out.
Zhuangzi immediately busied himself, setting up a tent on the other side of the Baishui Bridge.
Some of the migrant workers were called to help, while the Zhang family's villagers were in charge of cooking.
"The latrines need to be built, and the captives need to be placed separately. Hire the Winged Knights to guard them first. After that, hire people from Chang 'an's 16 guards. "
Li Yi calculated while waiting.
10,430 people. If they were given tools, what would happen if they rebelled?
"Put the people from different tribes into one team, one hundred people in each team, and use the method of joint sitting.
Choose the captain and vice-captain, and use different meals to divide them and not let them unite.
Take out a point system. If they do well, they will get points. If they don't do well, they will get points deducted. If they get points to a certain extent, they will regain their freedom. "
Li Yi calculated that the point system would never allow them to become free.
If they were sick or injured, they would get points deducted for medical treatment. If they wanted to eat meat, they would get points for it.
They could also find women, and they would also get points.
In the slave group, they could be divided into classes. Classes were classes, and the upper class would try to protect their own interests.
On the official road less than fifteen miles away from Chang 'an City, a large group of people were holding torches to illuminate the road.
The slaves connected by ropes walked with difficulty. The straw shoes had poor resistance to the cold.
They were covered with three layers of sacks to keep warm. Some people couldn't stand the cold and were allowed to get close to the torch to warm their feet.
"Go quickly. When we get there, there will be food, salt, good clothes and shoes. Start running. If you can't do it, just say it."
The person in charge of escorting them shouted from time to time. He was afraid that there would be more dead captives and less money.
More than a hundred captives died along the way. One captive was worth fifty thousand yuan.
There were four caged cars in the team. Mother and children were locked in one cage.
At first, the pandas were irritable. After being locked up for a long time, they became obedient.
The taste of bamboo always changed. Sometimes they would refuse and eat when they were hungry.
But some refused to eat no matter how hungry they were. The escorts went to find a new type of bamboo.
The pandas also ate some grass. They suffered a lot along the way.
The cooked meat was put in pancakes. The pandas also liked to eat it. There was also a boiled egg every day. That was what they looked forward to the most.
The captives were afraid of the cold, but the pandas were not. If it weren't for the fact that no one bathed them, they would look like big ragdolls at this time.
Now, they didn't look cute. They were dirty all over.
They opened their mouths and showed their sharp teeth. They looked very scary.
When the team just reached the west of the city and was about to go south, Li Yi rushed over with the team.
"Tell them to wear shoes and clothes. Don't freeze to death. Drink some hot soup. Where are the pandas? God, are they cute pandas? "
Li Yi shouted under the light of a kerosene lamp.
When he stood in front of the cage and raised the lantern to look at the pandas that were not sleeping, the word "cute" could not come out of his mouth.
The places where the pandas should be white were now black. The body that should be round was thin.
When he looked at the pandas, the pandas also looked at him.
"Don't worry, I've built a house for you. There are four courtyards. There are fun things in them. I'll find bamboo for you in the future."
Li Yi said to a mother panda.
Zhuangzi only had dried bamboo at the moment. To feed the pandas, they had to feed bamboo shoots. Zhuangzi had prepared in advance. It was expensive, much more expensive than bamboo.
The captives were there in groups to try on shoes and clothes.
The ropes were untied at the last minute. They didn't run or resist. They really had no strength.
After changing their clothes, they went to get soup. Each person was given a bamboo tube. The soup contained dried vegetables, wheat grains, and boiled chicken. The key was that there was salt.
After changing into warm clothes and shoes and drinking a mouthful of the soup with salt, the captives quieted down.
"Here, these are for you. Eat as much as you want. It won't make me poor."
Li Yi inserted an iron stake into the bamboo shoots and reached into the cage for the pandas.
Seeing the bamboo shoots, the pandas didn't care about anything else. They grabbed two in front of them and started eating.
The pandas in the other cages howled. They hit the cages with their claws and used their bodies to knock against the cage.
"There are all of them. Don't worry, help to feed them." Li Yi was afraid that the pandas would knock the cage open.
More bamboo shoots were thrown in. The pandas were as obedient as the captives.
They didn't care about tearing off the outer skin of the bamboo shoots. They just ate them directly.
With the bamboo shoots in their mouths, the pandas raised their heads slightly. They actually gave people a feeling of satisfaction.
The 2,000 Non-commissioned Officer from the Southwest who came over were divided into groups to drink the soup. They drank a different kind of soup, mutton soup.
Cut mutton and giblets were put into the soup together with salt, pepper, and vinegar.
An hour later, all 10,430 captives changed into shoes and clothes and drank the soup.
They were curious. They didn't know their fate. They only felt that they shouldn't be killed.
What the Non-commissioned Officer from the Southwest felt was the logistics ability of the Li Family Zhuangzi. When the group was 20 miles away from the west of Chang 'an City, a scout went to report.
When the group arrived at the west of the city, the Li Family Zhuangzi's clothes, shoes, and two kinds of soup were all prepared and sent to the place.
Didn't this mean that the Li Family Zhuangzi could easily arrange an army of 13,000 people?
No, the Li Family Zhuangzi's reaction speed was faster than the army.
