Chapter 36 An Overview of the Battle in Qinghai

"You two, take a good rest, eat something, and the young master will come back later, and you will tell me all the details!" Liu Yi ordered very calmly.

His father had died of illness, and although his heart was painful, he also understood his uncle's intention of sending someone to report the news, and he must have something to explain, and he had to inquire about these two domestic servants in detail.

Liu Yi thought that the imperial court should also receive the news, and Liu Yi understood that what he had to do now was to use the news brought back by the domestic servant to save the reputation of his father, who had died of illness.

If his father was still humiliated after his death, then Jiuquan would not be reconciled.

Liu Yi hopes that before his father's body arrives in Chang'an, he can figure things out, and save his father's reputation and get posthumously presented by the imperial court, which is what he must do as a son.

Now there is a Liu Zhong who went to Qinghai, and there is a personal guard Liu Ning who has been following his father's side, so the front and back of this war should be clear, but these two domestic servants have been physically exhausted and mentally exhausted because of this continuous long-distance running, and they must be given some time to rest before they can tell what happened.

"Young Master, we're fine..."The two servants said strongly, although they were both physically and mentally poor.

"Young master, I'll go and see how Madame is doing, you guys rest first, eat something, think about what the second master explained, and I'll come back later!" Liu Yi stood up and said, and then instructed the housekeeper Liu Niandao: "Uncle Nian, you send a few people to take care of them!" ”

"Yes, Third Young Master!" Liu Yi's words were irresistible, and Liu Nian, who had never taken Liu Yi seriously, responded very obediently.

Liu Yi quickly got up and returned to his mother's room.

To Liu Yi's surprise, although her mother was still crying at this time, her expression had calmed down, and when she saw Liu Yi coming over, she motioned for him to sit down on the side, "San Lang, tell your mother, what's going on?" ”

Seeing his mother so strong, Liu Yi only felt a sour nose, and almost burst into tears again, "Mother, you can rest first, and I'll talk to you again, okay?" ”

"No, you talk to your mother now!" Zhang shook his head resolutely, his eyes making it impossible to refuse.

Liu Yi had no choice but to tell his mother what he had just learned from the two servants.

"Mother, my father is loyal and unyielding, and he repays the country with death, this loyal and brave act, the child is proud of his father!" After his father Liu Xianli was defeated and captured, he would rather die than surrender, and refused the treatment provided by the Tubo people for him, with such a loyal father, Liu Yi had no reason not to be proud.

"Your father is a tough guy, my mother believes that he will not surrender to the enemy!" There was some confusion in Zhang's tearful eyes, but it was immediately replaced by perseverance, "Your father's coffin will be transported back to Chang'an, mother... I hope he can have a beautiful funeral and no longer be ashamed..."

"Mother, the child understands! You rest first, just tell Uncle Nian to do it, I'll ask Liu Zhong and Liu Ning later, and ask them to tell the details of the matter, the child doesn't believe that the defeat in this battle was caused by his father's rashness, and he must return his father's innocence, so that he can enjoy the honor he deserves! Liu Yi said very surely, whether his father was alone or not, resulting in the annihilation of the front army, with his fearless momentum in the enemy camp, he should be respected by the world.

Liu Yi thought that he would be able to enter the palace in two days to face the saint, and originally wanted to ask the court to find out the reason for this defeat, how did he know that his father had died of illness, even if the court was ready to investigate, it would be more difficult to tell without his father, but Liu Yi believed that the matter could be cleared.

Father has passed away, so there are more things to fight for for my father, but the most important thing is to ask the court to find out the cause of this war, now that my father has passed away, there is more reason to ask the court to do this, presumably the court has also received such news, Liu Yi is thinking about how to express it when he sees the emperor and empress.

"San Lang, my mother wants to be alone for a while, you let them all go out!" Zhang pointed to the maids and servants who were staying on the side.

"Mother, let them serve you, you can summon you immediately!" Liu Yi was not at ease with his mother's appearance, worried that his mother would not be able to think about it.

"San Lang, my mother is fine, my mother just wants to be quiet alone!" Zhang smiled miserably at Liu Yi and shook his head.

"Okay, mother, the child will go out first," Liu Yi had to rely on his mother to let these girls out, but at the same time let them pay close attention to the situation in the house, just in case.

Liu Yi walked out of his mother's house, stood on the porch alone for a while, sorted out his thoughts, and then strode towards his house, and at the same time instructed the servants to let Liu Zhong and Liu Ning come to his room.

After a while, Liu Zhong and Liu Ning both arrived at Liu Yi's house, and Liu Yi motioned for them to sit down on the side, "Liu Ning, I want to know the details of this battle, you and the young master and I will talk about it well, try to be as detailed as possible..."

"Yes, young master!" Seeing his young master's suspicious look, Liu Ning also immediately settled down, thought for a while, and then spoke.

It can be said that the most elite front army in the whole army assaulted the area of the Hehuang Valley, and wanted to use the good assault ability of our army to attack the Tubo Qinling Department, and the army led by Li Jingxuan then followed up, taking advantage of the entanglement between our front army and the enemy, attacking the Tubo army that was fighting with our front army in a melee with superior forces, and striving to defeat the Tubo people in a battle, but the front army encountered the enemy and fell into a melee, but did not get the support of the rear army. Liu Xianli sent several personal guards, and a few subordinate generals to ask for help, but most of them died on the way to break through, and a few people stood out, but I don't know if they have arrived at the commander's tent of the army.

The former army surrounded by the Tubo people finally did not expect reinforcements, most of the more than 30,000 people were killed in battle, Liu Xianli also fought bravely to kill the enemy, and was seriously wounded in many places, and finally exhausted and captured, most of the nearly 50 guards around him were killed in battle, and a few were captured with Liu Xianli.

After Liu Xianli, the chief general, and Wang Xiaojie, the deputy general, were captured, the remaining remnants of the former army stopped resisting.

"Young master, the little one is just a personal guard, how the attack plan is deployed, the small one doesn't know, it's just that the old man shouted angrily before he was captured, 'Li Jingxuan, you coward, you are afraid of death, and the old man will be defeated...', after the little one was captured with the master, he also begged to be imprisoned with the old man, in order to take care of the old man, but the old man ended..."Liu Ning choked and paused for a moment, and then continued, "Later, I heard from a Tibetan general who was guarding that the old man's family cried outside the tent for a few days, wanting to retrieve the old man's body. The head of Tubo, Qin Ling, finally agreed to hand over the body of the old man to the second master and the two young masters... The master's lieutenant Wang Xiaojie was also released because of his resemblance to Tubo Zampu..."
