Consolation is comfort, but the reality is no longer something they can control by relying on just a little hope.
The army still has to retreat.
Cangzhou also had to build a garrison position, otherwise the Goguryeo army would advance straight into the sky and the entire Tang Dynasty would fall into war.
"I understand. After you go back, be sure to pay attention to safety. If Li Tai is really as he said in his heart, you will probably be in danger when you go back."
"But I believe you can solve it."
"The military advisor sent someone to Cangzhou to pass on orders to transfer the people to the rear towns. Local officials must resettle all the people."
"If anyone dares to make things difficult, just deal with it directly." The emperor, Xu Shiji and others continued.
Once the Tang army retreated on the Niutou Bay battlefield, Yuan Gaisuwen would definitely follow closely.
As the last gateway of the Tang Dynasty, Cangzhou must be kept firmly.
Otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best. Your Majesty still needs a good rest!" Xu Shiji and others responded.
...
The emperor rested, Cheng Yaojin and several others left the camp.
The Tang Dynasty has been defeated in this battle, and they are now going back to Chang'an to resolve the chaos behind it.
"Li Ke, I really didn't expect that Zhao Da would be your royal brother. I just said that with Zhao Da's ability, how could he be an ordinary person?" Cheng Chumo seemed quite happy.
It seemed that the news of Zhao Chen's accident had been left behind, and he only cared about Zhao Chen's identity.
Cheng Chumo really didn't expect that Zhao Chen was really the emperor's son.
After all, the evidence has been placed in front of all officials several times before, and it has not really confirmed what Zhao Chen has to do with the emperor.
Although the relationship between Zhao Chen and the emperor was just what the emperor himself said.
But it is precisely because of this that everyone has no doubt at all.
The emperor is already like this, there is really no need to hide anything.
Besides, something happened to Zhao Chen himself!
"I didn't expect it, but the emperor brother..." Li Ke packed up his things, but his expression was a little sad.
What he said to the emperor just now was just to comfort the emperor.
Li Ke didn’t know what happened to Zhao Chen before!
Now, whether Zhao Chen is alive or dead is just relying on his heart to guess!
"Don't worry, Cheng Er and I believe that Zhao Da won't have any trouble like this. You don't know his ability."
"Or we would have gone to find him long ago." Qin Huaiyu came over and patted Li Ke on the shoulder.
When Qin Huaiyu heard the news that Zhao Chen was assassinated, although she was worried, she was more angry with Li Tai.
Zhao Chen was running back and forth for the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't want Li Tai to be plotted behind his back.
This is what makes Qin Huaiyu the most angry!
Li Ke nodded.
He was grateful to Zhao Chen from the bottom of his heart.
If Zhao Chen had not agreed to her mother's request and asked him to go to the academy, Li Ke would not have been here today.
Although Shu is good, it is controlled by others everywhere.
It's completely incomparable to this moment.
Zhao Chen said to Li Ke that he was a teacher and a person who saved himself in the quagmire of fate!
"I really hope the emperor is fine. You said that the emperor is fine. Should I give up the position under Li Tai's butt?" A smile appeared on Li Ke's face.
"That's not. When I see that boy Li Tai, I will punch him to see that he still dares to use tricks behind his back!"
"Yes, I won't let Li Tai remember this lesson for the rest of my life. I, Qin Huaiyu, will walk with my butt in my arms in the future!"
Both of them said, but no one said anything to kill Li Tai.
Everyone knew that no matter how outrageous Li Tai was, he was the son of Empress Changsun. Even if the emperor hated him, he would let Li Tai go for the sake of Empress Changsun.
...
It is still ten days away from Niutou Bay, General Wang led a transportation team to rest here.
The transportation team has been away for many days, and it has also been delayed by the rain for several days.
"General, we will arrive at the front line in ten days, and our mission will be completed by then." The soldier and General Wang said.
A few days ago, they killed the Right Martial Guard generals and several others, took out Li Tai's orders, and took over the entire transportation team without any pressure.
"Did those guys in the transport team have any movement?" General Wang asked the soldiers.
He was sent by Li Tai, so he naturally knew what had happened before.
But he didn't know, and if anyone else knew it.
Li Tai's order was to get rid of any person who is in the know.
The news of the assassination of Zhao Chen must not be spread!
"There is no movement. Many of my subordinates and many of them have inquired about it, and no one knows what happened that day."
"No one has doubts about that person's sudden disappearance."
"General, what happened?" the soldier and General Wang asked.
"Don't ask too much if you shouldn't ask." General Wang and the soldiers scolded coldly.
The soldier was startled and did not dare to ask more questions now.
Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I heard a sound of horse hooves coming from the front.
Four people and four horses rushed towards this side.
General Wang frowned and waved his hand to signal the soldiers beside him, and some soldiers immediately stopped the person.
"What are you doing? I didn't see that this is the official transport team. Isn't you afraid of being arrested?" General Wang looked at the people in front of him and scolded coldly.
Cheng Yaojin and Cheng Chumo and the other four returned from Niutou Bay, thinking about returning to Chang'an earlier and controlling Li Tai.
I haven't had much rest these days.
Suddenly stopped by the soldiers, Cheng Yaojin immediately reacted and knew that this was a transportation team coming out of Chang'an.
That is the transportation team where Zhao Chen was involved in the accident!
"I am Cheng Yaojin, are you the leader of this transportation team?" Cheng Yaojin turned over and dismounted and walked to General Wang.
General Wang's expression changed immediately when he heard that the person in front of him was Cheng Yaojin.
How could he not know Cheng Yaojin’s name?
I also know that Cheng Yaojin and Zhao Chen have a very good relationship.
If Cheng Yaojin asked him about Zhao Chen...
"Duke Lu, the last general's surname is Wang, was sent by His Highness the Crown Prince to escort the transport team to the front line!" General Wang bowed to Cheng Yaojin.
The other soldiers knew that the person in front of them was Cheng Yaojin, so they also looked at him.
"General Wang, you said your transportation team came from Chang'an, so tell me how something happened to Zhao Chen?" Cheng Yaojin looked at General Wang in front of him.
"Tell me, did you assassinate Zhao Chen?"
"Okay, how could he be poisoned?"
"If it was really what you did, I will definitely destroy your entire family!"
Cheng Chumo, Li Ke and Qin Huaiyu said one by one, and they were all angry.
General Wang dared not refute them.
Seeing that Cheng Yaojin was ready to take down his own hands, General Wang quickly said, "Mr. Lu misunderstood. It was only after Zhao Chen had an accident that the last general was sent by His Highness to escort the transport team."
"What happened before, I was completely unaware of."
"If Mr. Lu doesn't believe it, you can go and ask them!"
General Wang pointed at the labor force of the transportation team, his face full of grievance.
Cheng Yaojin didn't really ask about the labor service behind him.
I learned that it was Li Tai's attack on Zhao Chen, and other things are no longer important.
Chapter completed!
