"Pei Shilang, because of Liu Renliang's personal grudges, he strongly recommended Li Jingxuan to go to the Qinghai front line to lead the troops, which led to the defeat of our army, and tens of thousands of Han family sons and daughters died as a result, such a crime should not be forgiven!" Liu Yi's words were still full of anger.

There is a reason for Liu Yi to be so angry, Liu Renliang did this, his dark purpose was also achieved, Li Jingxuan's army was defeated, and he would be punished no matter what, if it was found out that it was because of Li Jingxuan's cowardice that caused the front army to be wiped out, then the punishment would be even heavier, and it was possible to lose his official position or be demoted, although since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, there was no leading general who was executed because of the defeat, but it was not impossible to set a precedent in Wu Zetian's hands.

It's just that no matter what kind of punishment Li Jingxuan receives, the losses suffered by Datang are immeasurable and irreparable, and the tens of thousands of Tang soldiers who died on the battlefield have lost their lives forever.

Liu Yi can imagine what kind of tragic scene his father was when he led the remnants of the army to fight hard, and he can imagine how much his father hoped to see the arrival of reinforcements and help them get out of the encirclement; When he died in battle, he was so unwilling and bitter and disappointed. Liu Yi's heart was twisting strongly, for the Tubo people, for the two important ministers of the Tang Dynasty who caused his father's death, he wanted to slaughter as soon as possible and avenge his father.

The hatred of the country and the family are all in one, Liu Yi has this feeling in his heart, he must do something about it, otherwise he will be sorry for his father under Jiuquan no matter what, as well as those Tang soldiers who should not have died in battle.

Thinking that when facing Liu Renliang, that scolding was really right, but unfortunately he didn't scold freely, and he should have pointed his finger at the scolding.

"Yi Anxian's nephew, you are not like this!" Pei Xingjian looked sympathetic and comforted Liu Yidao, "Presumably this time Li Jingxuan is defeated, the imperial court will definitely punish him, and your father will be posthumously punished, which can be regarded as a comfort, as for Liu Jingxuan, alas... He submitted his resignation to the emperor, but the emperor didn't allow it! ”

"Why can't the imperial court cure Liu Renliang's crimes?" Liu Yi was a little unconvinced.

"At most, Liu Fujiao can only say that he recommended people improperly, but His Majesty the Emperor and the Queen of Heaven have special trust in him and give him reuse, and he will definitely not be punished!" Pei Xingjian said helplessly that he had also made a statement to punish Liu Renliang's crime, but was rejected by the emperor.

Without waiting for Liu Yi to speak, Pei Xingjian continued: "Also, the military situation ahead is changing rapidly, and many times it is necessary to lead the generals to adapt to the situation... Li Jingxuan was cowardly, although he said that he was hateful, but he could also excuse himself with the reason for the sudden change in military situation, if it were not for the later situation, the imperial court might not be able to cure Li Jingxuan's crimes, let alone his predecessor Liu Renliang!"

"Such a great loss, can't it be punished?" Liu Yi was very surprised.

"Virtuous nephew, you have to remember that some things in the court are not taken for granted," Pei Xingjian looked directly at Liu Yidao, and sighed as he spoke, "I was also shocked when I learned the news, the loss of nearly 80,000 horses, and the defeat of our army, which was not done after Xue Rengui's army defeated Dafeichuan, as the commander, Li Jingxuan could not escape punishment no matter what, if the court opened up to him, he would definitely go to the table to ask for his crime, and I believe that those people in the Yushitai will also be impeached!"

Pei Xingjian led the army to fight a lot of battles, every battle was victorious, and most of the time it was more than less, this time the 180,000 army of Taohe Road was so defeated, Pei Xingjian was also very angry under the heartache, but he endured it, there are only a handful of generals in the Tang Dynasty who are good at fighting, which is a kind of sadness.

"If Pei Shilang leads the army, I think that it must be the Tubo people who have suffered this fiasco, why doesn't the imperial court lead the army with you?" Liu Yi asked the question in his heart.

"I just came back from Anxi last year, and the army of Taohe Road had already set out to fight..."Pei Xingjian stopped talking when he said this, looked at Liu Yidao, "Some things, I can't tell you clearly..."

Without waiting for Liu Yi to ask anything more, Pei Xingjian's expression suddenly became solemn, "Virtuous nephew, what I told you today, you can't tell others, can you understand?" ”

"I understand it below!" Liu Yi nodded vigorously.

"I have taken my leave first, presumably there will be an edict issued by the imperial court in a few days..."Pei Xingjian said and stood up and left!

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Two days after Pei Xingjian came to the palace to inform the news, the imperial court officially issued an edict to temporarily dismiss Li Jingxuan's Zhongshu Order, the chief of the Taohe Road March, the ambassador of Qinghai pacification, and the governor of Shanzhou. Cen Changqian, the squire of the Ministry of War, temporarily led the general manager of the Taohe Road March, and Qinghai pacified the ambassador and inspected the governor of Shanzhou!

At the same time, the foreign general Heiya Changzhi, who made great contributions to the left army in this battle, was the deputy envoy of the Heyuan Army and the general of the Zuo Wuwei, and the general of the Taohe Road Front Army was in charge of military affairs, assisting Cen Changqian in handling military affairs; In order to collect the scattered soldiers after the defeat of our Tang army, lead these temporarily assembled soldiers to defeat a group of invading Tubo, and by order of the imperial court, negotiate with Tubo, and finally successfully negotiate peace with Tubo, the original superintendent of the imperial Shi Lou Shide, served as the Sima of the Heyuan Army, and was also in charge of Tuntian affairs.

At the same time, the imperial court rewarded Liu Xianli who died in the edict, saying that he was brave and good at fighting, facing several times the Tubo army, fighting to the end, killing tens of thousands of Tubo troops, and finally being captured due to serious injuries, after being captured, he strictly refused the persuasion of the Tubo people to surrender, and refused to treat the injuries of the Tubo people, maintained his integrity, and finally died of serious injuries.

The imperial court sent Zhongshu Shilang and Xue Yuanchao, a subordinate of Tongzhongshu, to Liu's mansion to announce the decree, and Xue Yuanchao was followed by many other officials and some palace insiders, bringing a large number of rewards from the imperial court.

Liu Yi accompanied his mother, who was crying bitterly, to receive the order and thank him.

Although Xue Yuanchao said that after the news of Liu Xianli's defeat came, Shang Song asked the imperial court to severely punish Liu Xianli, the main general of the defeat, but at that time the situation ahead was not known, everything was based on the military report from the front, and it was also what Liu Xianli should do as the prime minister of the current dynasty, at this time the truth was close to being revealed, Xue Yuanchao's attitude towards Liu Fu also came to a 180-degree change, and after telling some investigation about the Qinghai war, he also comforted Liu's family with a pleasant face, He also apologized for his previous recital in the DPRK and China demanding that Liu Xianli be severely punished.

It should be said that sending a prime minister from the court to the palace to announce such a disposal order of the imperial court also gave Liu Xianli, who died in the war, a big face, and the Liu family who had suffered a lot during this period also got some comfort.
