The people sent by Li Yuanwei have arrived at Xingqing Mansion, and the military newspaper gave a detailed account of the situation in Lanzhou City.
Emperor Li Yuanhao of the Western Xia Dynasty is sitting above, wearing a purple gold crown with hair tied with jewels on his head, and two dragons holding two dragons on his eyebrows to wipe his forehead...
"Send it up!" Emperor Xingyuan's voice was very soft, but it was not difficult to find that his tone was full of urgency. Because the frontline wars had been defeated one after another, and no way to deal with it had been found so far, Emperor Xingyuan had to get serious and face this difficulty. The entangled Ganjun.
"Bastard!" Suddenly, Emperor Xingyuan shouted, his voice like a roaring tiger, startling all the officials in the palace.
"Your Majesty, calm down!" All the officials knelt down, trembling.
"Calm down, how do you ask me to calm down?" Emperor Xingyuan stood up from the dragon chair and threw out the military report in his hand.
"Pa!" The military newspaper fell to the ground, and all the officials' eyes fell on it.
I saw that everyone had different expressions, their eyebrows were slightly lowered, and I didn't know what they were thinking.
It is undeniable that they should all be thinking about the content of the military newspaper at this moment, which would make Emperor Xingyuan so angry.
This matter must be serious, otherwise how could Emperor Xingyuan be so angry on the spot?
Even though they were full of curiosity, no one dared to get up and pick it up.
While the officials were still doubting, Emperor Xingyuan spoke again.
"Li Yuanwei's crime is worthy of death."
"Boom!" As soon as these words came out, they instantly filled the eardrums of all the officials in the palace, making them pale in shock.
At the same time, someone vaguely guessed something.
There was silence in the hall for a while, and officials who were close friends with Li Yuanwei finally couldn't help but stand up and speak for him.
"Your Majesty, victory or defeat is a matter of military strategism, and the current army is different from the previous army, so..."
"So what?" Before the man could finish speaking, Emperor Xingyuan's cold eyes were fixed on him. For just a moment, the official felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his whole body was trembling and trembling.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I just feel that..." The official felt suddenly confused and wanted to speak but didn't know what to say.
"That's enough, don't say any more." Emperor Xingyuan shouted irritably, and his voice resounded like spring thunder throughout the hall, making all the officials in the palace tremble without exception.
"As a veteran general, Li Yuanwei dared to lead his troops into the city without understanding the situation in Lanzhou City. His daring behavior ultimately resulted in the loss of more than 15,000 reinforcements from the 60,000 reinforcements..."
"What do you think Li Yuanwei should be guilty of?" Emperor Xingyuan revealed the crimes Li Yuanwei had committed, but did not directly convict Li Yuanwei. Instead, he left the question to the officials in the palace.
After hearing this, all the officials realized that when Li Yuanwei entered Lanzhou City, he encountered a plan by the Qian Army. He lost more than 15,000 people before the war started with the Qian Army.
The army had a bad start and was defeated without a fight.
This...how can you play with this?
The morale of the army is unstable and there is no hope of winning.
"Your Majesty, even though Li Yuanwei was at fault, his crime this time was excusable. I think the top priority is how to solve the problem of this cadre army, otherwise our country will be in panic..." Prime Minister Hu Liwei stood up and analyzed with squinted eyes. .
Hu Liwei was very smart. He did not say how to convict Li Yuanwei of his defeat, but shifted the issue to the issue of retreating from the enemy.
As expected, after Li Yuanhao heard this again, he did not continue to worry about Li Yuanwei's problems.
Hu Liwei's eyes fell on the military newspaper on the ground. He shrugged and was about to walk over to pick up the military newspaper. However, Emperor Xingyuan spoke at this moment, forcing him to give up the idea.
"Qianjun captured many soldiers of our dynasty, and the commander of Qianjun asked us to exchange war horses and silver. I wonder what you, the Qing family, think of this matter?" Emperor Xingyuan's eyes moved slightly, and he continued to speak while looking at everyone, his tone and emotion gradually gradually Relaxation, the officials in the palace felt all this and breathed a long sigh of relief for no reason.
"Your Majesty, the soldiers charged into the battle to defend the country. Unfortunately, they were captured by Qian's army. We have plenty of war horses, so we can agree." As soon as Emperor Xingyuan finished speaking, someone stood up to respond.
The person who spoke was from the Ministry of War.
"I second the proposal!" Others in the Ministry of War also agreed.
Obviously, there cannot be only one voice in the court.
Some people agree, and some people oppose it.
"Your Majesty, you must not!" At this moment, people from the Ministry of Industry also stood up, but they held opposing opinions.
"As a general, you should charge into battle and defend the frontier from enemies. This is a truth that every soldier knows."
"Now not only are they not well defended, but they have also been captured by the enemy. What does this mean?"
"It means those soldiers surrendered to the enemy."
"Only those who are greedy for life and afraid of death will choose to surrender."
"Since they are soldiers who are greedy for life and afraid of death, why do we spend a lot of money to rescue them?" People from the Ministry of Works chattered endlessly, all of them accusing the soldiers of being cowardly and cowardly.
"I second the proposal!" People from the Ministry of Industry also began to agree.
As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused dissatisfaction from the Ministry of War.
"What Wang Shilang said is wrong. Does Wang Shilang think that as long as he is a surrendered soldier, he is not a good son of our country?"
"Shilang Wang was not personally involved in the predicament at that time, so how could he know what the battlefield was like at that time?"
Faced with the Ministry of War's rebuttal, Wang Xiaoqing was not afraid at all, but said aggressively, "General Hu, I really don't know why they surrendered. I just know that as a general, you should guard the border. Even if you die, you can't take a step back."
"Besides, don't you usually say that dying in battle is the highest honor for a soldier?"
"Why is it that now that there is a war, things have changed?"
"Are they all soldiers who are greedy for life and afraid of death? Since they are all soldiers who are greedy for life and afraid of death, why should we save them?"
"You..." The general surnamed Hu was very angry and wanted to refute him, but how could he, a rough old man, defeat Wang Xiaoqing, who was a civil servant, so he could only glare at him angrily to express his feelings. dissatisfaction.
But Wang Xiaoqing didn't care and even sneered in response, which made Hu Deli furious for a moment.
"Wang Xiaoqing, don't bully others too much!" Hu Deli couldn't stand Wang Xiaoqing's ridicule, so he pointed at Wang Xiaoqing and yelled.
"Why is General Hu so excited?" Faced with Hu Deli's rage, Wang Xiaoqing smiled calmly without any fear.
"Is it possible that I have touched General Hu's mind, or is General Hu also a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"
"you…"
"That's enough, shut up everyone!" Emperor Xingyuan slapped the dragon table.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Huh, this is a place for court meetings, not a place for you to quarrel. If you want to quarrel, just get out and quarrel." Emperor Xingyuan stared at the two of them angrily, dissatisfaction written on his face.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I understand my mistake!" The two men quickly admitted their mistake.
