In that year, due to Zhang Qiyuan's strategic mistakes, the northern defense line was shaken and killed, resulting in the death of the three commanders of the Northern Attendant Army.

Those family members are not idle meals, not to mention a large number of pensions, and their troubles are enough for the court to drink a pot.

Now, the rumors are faintly coming out, and many people are surrounding the front of the palace, asking the official to tell them the truth, the vast majority of them are women and children, you can't fight or not, you can't catch up, and you have to patiently accompany the smiling face, even Wang Yuan came out to explain, it is quite embarrassing to be surrounded by women and not forgive.

The front of the hall was in command, and at that time there was nothing to say, so he could only accompany the smiling face, as much as possible to appease, and even had the heart to die.

Wang Xiu's attitude was very resolute, open, the original public, to tell the world the truth, under his strong insistence, the imperial court announced the war situation, causing an uproar in the government and the opposition, and Gao Ping naturally became the focus of discussion.

Of course, the downfall of tens of thousands of people is definitely a major national event, and if it had been placed in the past, I am afraid that it would have led to a great upheaval in the government and the opposition, and the Northern Expedition would have almost stopped.

Now, the situation is very different, those family members with their children, crying directly outside the Privy Council, the Ministry of War, and the front of the palace, and some even directly burned paper to pay tribute, which embarrassed the court to the memorial.

Li Gang was surrounded as soon as he left Donghua Gate, and he, who was once embraced by the people, suffered the greatest humiliation in his life, and was scolded by a group of women pointing their noses.

"This soldier killed my family official."

"My eldest brother just joined the army, and he was killed by his own soldiers."

"My family is an official to earn money to support the family, and this soldier makes us orphans and widows how to live."

Wang Xiu was also very helpless, the battlefield battle was too bad, and the shock caused was too great, but fortunately, it had not yet developed to oppose the Northern Expedition, so he immediately took decisive measures to deal with it, and the two governments were surprisingly consistent.

The disposition of the imperial court was fair, Gao Ping changed his strategy without authorization for the sake of military achievements, and advanced lightly, resulting in the defeat of the early stage of the campaign, resulting in the death of two army commanders, three brigade and town commanders, and three of the five brigades and towns were canceled.

All the soldiers who died in the war were given a generous pension, which amounted to twice the amount of money and food, and the young children were supported by the local government on a monthly basis, and the lonely fathers and orphans were also paid by the government every month, which basically reassured the people.

Everyone died in battle, and no matter how noisy they were, they couldn't survive, and the court did its best to do its best, at least to save the families of the fallen soldiers from being displaced, and their children could also be selected first, and the left-behind soldiers felt much more at ease.

The most talkative thing is Feng Yuan, who was entangled in whether to send troops to rescue Gao Ping at that time, beheaded the town lord and imprisoned the Gongsheng Army Du Yuhou, and slaughtered more than 20,000 prisoners.

Li Guang has full authority to investigate, but the specific operation is Liu Jian, the Marquis of Yu, the Ministry of War, he originally had a smooth career, from the Marquis of the North Army to the Marquis of the War, and his life reached the peak of glory, but he was on this stall again, Chen Gao was in Kaifeng City, and now he is Feng Yuan, one is a child of the Wangmen, a low-level general of the forbidden army, and one is the leader of the nine sons of the Wangmen, and he is a marshal at the level of the capital school.

As an experienced general, he and those commanders understood that in the current situation, it was impossible for Feng Yuan to carry out a large-scale rescue, not to mention that the Jin army reached 100,000, even a piece of water could not be crossed immediately, Feng Yuan's main force insisted on waiting for help, and the tactics of small units to rescue were very correct.

Without Feng Yuan's resolute insistence, I am afraid that the Hedong camp will really be wiped out.

As for directly beheading the town lord and imprisoning Du Yu Hou, he was very jealous, and he dared to imprison Du Yu Hou, even if it was necessary for the military situation, and at the critical moment when the Jin army was pressuring, these people were detained Cheng Jiao, which almost caused the military situation to erode, Feng Yuan had the power to make a decision on the spot, and it was also an offense to the authority of the military judge.

The most horrific thing is the slaughter of nearly 30,000 prisoners, at the end of the war in the northwest, more than 100,000 followers of Li Renxiao, and finally 60,000 or 70,000 people remained.

It was a killing of stubborn party members, which was conducive to the rule of the imperial court in the northwest, and everyone turned a blind eye, and it was almost the same.

This time, it was these two masters who raised the butcher's knife, and finally aroused the criticism of Shilin, this is the people of Hedong, Hebei, how many people will be jealous of the Great Song Dynasty? How much of an impact will it have on the Northern Expedition?

Many imperial historians impeached Feng Yuan, and Li Zhengmin went into battle shirtless, and even Li Gang did not let go, which made this old man smile bitterly, this group of mad dogs can really bite people.

Shilin also has public opinion that the punishment of Feng Yuan is heavy, and even some academic bureaucrats do not lie to their words, claiming that the killing is too heavy.

Interestingly, along with these agitations, Feng Yuan and Jing Bo led their armies to victory one after another, constantly attacking the city and trapping the ground, which is really quite ironic.

At that time, Jing Bo's scheming was to force Feng Yuan to reduce his burden, and the army could march quickly. Feng Yuan really took it silently, leaving the prisoners could only delay the war, and he used the revenge of the soldiers to kill more than 20,000 prisoners.

On the cusp of the limelight, supervising the imperial history of Xinghua Qian wrote a book, impeached Feng Yuan for several crimes, added a new fight, and directly impeached him in court with his real name, not to mention giving Wang Xiu no face, arrogant to the extreme.

Wang Xiu was on the spot, watching Hua Qian's actions like watching a monkey show, smiling and silent, Li Zhengmin's good dog, in other words, it was someone's pawn.

Qin Hui's eyes rolled straight, and Fan Zongyin, Cai Yi, and Shen Mo's faces were ugly.

Li Gang and Li Guang were even more annoyed, they thought that it was Gao Ping's fault, Feng Yuan was able to deal with it calmly, and finally turned the tide, even if there was a slight mistake, it was all a small section, just like killing more than 20,000 prisoners, it was not because of the light army to attack Lund, it was impossible to carry a large number of prisoners, and they were released on the spot, I am afraid that these people will return to the Jin Army, and if they are killed, they will be killed, there is no big deal.

Hua Qian is arguing on the basis of reason, and he grabbed Feng Yuan's cruel methods, but it made people have a toothache, after all, he was a little overdone.

Li Guang immediately reprimanded Hua Qian angrily, thinking that the imperial history dog took a mouse, judging by the situation at the time, the means of sealing the yuan were necessary, and there was no decisive killing on the battlefield, which could only make more people lose their lives.

Even if it is a massacre of prisoners, it is only a prisoner and not a surrender, for the realization of the strategy of the imperial court, what is the matter of tens of thousands of people, is it necessary to be merciful to the enemy, let people take up arms again, and slaughter the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army.

Don't look at the young age of Zhao Jiong, the prince of the prison state, his attitude is quite clear, that is, the impeachment of Hua Qian was directly refuted, causing Hua Qian to fall from the crown.
