"This is an unprecedented shame for our Great Qin Empire in the past fifty years. The Holy Emperor was furious. The new guard general of Yumen Pass was killed in the battle. The old guard general of Yumen Pass, commanders and other people were all beheaded. The left and right ministers of the Ministry of War were all beheaded. Only the Ministry of War at that time was
Shangshu Duan Jinjiang escaped death, and Duan Jinjiang is now a bachelor of the cabinet, and he is also one of the few court officials who has mastered all military secrets."
Zhao Heshan took a breath and added: "After this battle, Wanyan Zaidao became famous in the first battle. Yelu Abaoji, the Great Khan of the Liao Kingdom, was so pleased that he was promoted to the prime minister of the Liao Kingdom on the front line."
"Since Wanyan Zaidao became the prime minister of the Liao Kingdom and took charge of the military affairs of the Liao Kingdom, our Great Qin Empire often used troops against the Liao Kingdom, and fought no less than ten times, large and small, with a total of more than 200,000 troops and countless money spent.
No victory!"
"As a result, the reputation of the empire's generals has plummeted, the voices in the DPRK and China seeking peace have become increasingly powerful, and the military's prestige has completely declined."
"Nowadays, in the government and the public, there is no room for people in the military to speak out. Everything is decided by the cabinet. This is evident!"
After saying this, Zhao Heshan, who was already injured, turned pale. He bowed deeply to Li Chen and said in a deep voice: "It is still a mystery why the Liao Kingdom was able to master the secrets of our army in the Yumenguan Massacre.
Most of the people died, and those who returned home after retiring from old age cannot be verified."
"Although Weichen has no ironclad evidence, a comparison of before and after, spanning more than ten years of imperial military aircraft, shows that the national destiny declined due to the Yumenguan massacre, and Zhao Xuanji started from the Yumenguan massacre. If it is said that this matter has nothing to do with Zhao Xuanji, Weichen will die with his eyes closed!
"
Li Chen's face was as dark as water.
What Zhao Heshan said today had a huge impact on him.
He thought he had overestimated Zhao Xuanji enough, but now he realized that he still underestimated this old man's ambition and ruthlessness.
If he really colluded with the Liao Kingdom so that he could take power, then it can be seen that his plan had started more than ten years ago.
"Why did you reveal this secret to me so easily today after having kept it for so many years?"
After suppressing the surging waves in his heart, Li Chen asked Zhao Heshan.
Zhao Heshan bowed again and said sincerely: "Wei Chen is already in his prime, and the only thing he can't worry about is his wife and daughter. If Rui'er can be loved by His Highness, I will have no regrets and will have nothing to worry about."
It seems that Zhao Heshan did not know what Zhao Xuanji asked Zhao Rui to do.
Li Chen breathed out softly and said: "I know about this matter."
He didn't say what to do next. Li Chen's fingers were clasped at the bottom of the secret note, which was the four-character evaluation of 'good at managing people's livelihood', and he said to Zhao Heshan: "You are still injured, go down and get better."
Get some rest and stay in the house arranged by Jin Yiwei for you for the next two days. The Crown Prince will go back with you later. She also wants to meet you and your wife. There is no need to say anything else that shouldn't be said."
"Two days later, you will report directly to the camp for the victims on the outskirts of the capital. I have already ordered you to go down. There are tens of thousands of victims gathered there. In a short period of time, someone will be needed to take charge of the camp's affairs and to take charge of the disaster relief.
During this period, you can temporarily manage this matter."
Zhao Heshan looked excited and said gratefully: "Wei Chen, thank you for your grace!"
After Zhao Heshan left, Li Chen's face was as dark as water.
After thinking for a long time, Li Chen said: "Chen Tong."
Chen Tong walked in through the door from outside the palace.
"The humble job is here."
"How much does Jin Yiwei know about Duan Jinjiang?"
