Before Li Chengqian came out of the Northern Fufu Department, he left only one sentence: The Han people had delicious food and drink, so they didn't have to ask for confessions anymore. Others had to deal with the matter even if they cut off their skin and bones. Then he put on the frame of the return to the palace with a penis face. It was useless if Changsun Chong and the other two tried to keep them.

On the frame of the return to the palace, Li Chengqian thought a lot. Poor people must have something hateful. People often hear this saying that if the right and wrong are used in this scene, they may have turned it over.

Because these people are transformed into bad people in a specific living environment, this is not their original intention. It is not others who change their fate or their family, but they are themselves.

During the war that year, Li Chengqian felt that the plan for the Western Expedition was perfect. Even if he received the imperial edict to stop the attack, he still believed so. After all, the outcome of the war was determined by the enemy and us.

As for how many guards who defend the border, who stayed as generals, and how to deploy defenses, that is the issue that Li Jing, the chief executive, should consider. It is not easy for him to interfere too much, so as not to leave people with a sense of self-respecting force, and to slander the East Palace in front of the emperor, causing the Eastern Palace to fall into a dilemma.

He could not explain these words to these people, nor did they understand that this prince, who seemed to be incredibly glorious, was not as glorious as they imagined back then. Even in the Western Expedition Army, there were more than one person who wanted him to be defeated and died so as to pave the smooth road for his master to enter the Eastern Palace.

Until before entering Mingde Hall, Li Chengqian was reviewing the pros and cons of the Western Expedition to the Tang Dynasty. From the perspective of the overall situation, whether it was the first ceasefire or the second Western Expedition, it was beneficial to the Tang Dynasty at that time, and the benefits they fought for the country at that time were also confirmed.

As for the scattered Tuyuhun scattered soldiers and brave men went deep into the hinterland and plundered the border residents, it was purely caused by the negligence of the local guards, and had no direct relationship with Li Chengqian. However, considering that the Western Expedition was made by him and could not start and end well, this was a regret that he had always thought that he had caused such a person to be implicated.

This kind of thing happens often on the border. When it comes to the Ministry of War, it is just a string of cold numbers. I haven’t seen it with my own eyes or experienced it with my own experience, and I can’t experience that kind of pain and despair.

Yes, it is often those critical periods that change the direction of a person's life. People who have no pain will never understand how vague the connection between life and death is.

I remember when I first went to the battlefield, I closed the iron gate and watched the mountains of corpses piled up on both sides of the pass, and could not cover up the disgusting stench of corpses in winter. In addition, the delay in reinforcements made Li Chengqian's mood very complicated.

One hundred people charged forward, but the arrows did not shoot at themselves, because they penetrated into others, and the glory of the winner finally fell on themselves, but that could have fallen on others. After joining the army, anyone who has been on the battlefield once will die even if he survives.

If others die for you, if you live, you should live for others. Otherwise, you will be sorry to both the living and the dead. From the words of those people, Li Chengqian could hear that they just wanted to use their despised life to seek justice for themselves and their relatives' "dignity".

As the crown prince of a country, Li Chengqian has the responsibility and obligation to protect every Tang Dynasty people from persecution by foreign enemies and corrupt officials. The question was not wrong, so he said the three words "I am incompetent", which is one of his few apologies in his life. It takes a few days to eat and drink, and it is comfortable to go on the road. This is also a compensation from Li Chengqian to them.

As the sun sets, the light in Mingde Hall also dimmed, especially Li Chengqian did not allow the palace servants to light the lamps, and the hall was even more dark and silent. The quiet needles could be heard, and the depressed breath was everywhere, making the palace servants who were serving it feel a little difficult to breathe.

Cry, Cry, as the palace gate was pushed open, Changsun Chong stepped in quickly, ordered the palace maids to light a few palace lanterns, waved his hand to let them retreat, and stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, people are all mortals with naked eyes, not gods, and they can't see that things will happen in the future."

"I have been a criminal officer for many years, and I have been dealing with many people. I have seen it and heard too many stories. No one is born to be a bad person. The road is chosen by you and has nothing to do with the Western Expedition you presided over back then. Your Highness does not have to feel guilty."

The reason why Changsun Chong followed was not only to state the progress of the case, but also to worry about his cousin. Although Changsun Chong had never fought a war, he had contacted more military generals since so many years of contact. He knew that the more wars the general fought, the more debts he owed, and this was a kind of account that he would never pay for the rest of his life.

His cousin has made great achievements in ancient times and is no match for his peers, and it also makes his senior generals ashamed. But the more victories he has won, the more people he dies. The capture of these Han people who were deceived by the Tubo people was only a small part of the impact, and it is also the most extreme.

He was really worried that this cousin who seemed to be a stubborn cousin was stubborn and pressed all these responsibilities on his head, competed with him, sulked, and got angry, which was too unworthy.

Alas, after sighing, Li Chengqian took the tea handed over by Changsun, looked at the empty hall, and said in a deep voice: "You don't need to tell the great truth, I know it too.

What I regret is that I was young and had not thoughtfully enough. If I could grit my teeth, I might be able to destroy Tuyuhun in one battle, and those border residents might not have suffered such hardships."

"Your Highness, the past cannot be pursued. You don't need to take responsibility on yourself. Besides, your influence back then cannot control the entire Tang army. The general can completely go beyond you to negotiate with the Tuyuhun people. After all, he is the real commander of the army, and you have no choice but to say it."

The Tang army had a strict hierarchy system. This system only recognized the official positions of marching, and the soldiers only recognized the military talisman and commander seal of the general manager. The status of the prince alone could not change the overall situation. Fighting for the prince's opinions was just a formality, and it was impossible to count them at all.

To put it bluntly, the prince was actually a good-looking decoration back then, which was the same as the principle of presiding over the post-war period during the Northern Expedition. This is not like after the Battle of Songzhou, he led troops to fight as the commander of the Tang army, and had complete autonomy and the right to deal with all affairs of the Tang army outside.
