At noon the next day, Huixi Village.

In the tent of the general, when Liu Jiangsheng and Zhu Kuang came to Li Yuan with shame and knelt down in front of the generals and apologized, Li Yuan, who had just seen Luo Erhu, had a slightly revealed joy on his face instantly dissipated. After listening to their reports on the killings last night and the consequences.

The generals showed different expressions, but their surprised eyes were almost the same. Peng Shiyu, who was sitting aside silently, heard that all three thousand Xiang soldiers were dead, and his eyes were filled with blood and almost bleeding.

Suddenly, the sound of joint staggering due to clenched fists sounded beside him. Li Yuanzi could feel Peng Shiyu's abnormality. Although the young master of Xizhou has lost his superficial strength in recent days, he has a solid will in his bones, but he is just trying to endure it by judging the situation.

As one of the five major tribes in Dongxi, Xiang Zongyan was the first to surrender. It can be said that Peng Shiyu regained control of Xizhou. Now, the Xiang family is almost completely in the hands of the Tang army overnight. Xiang Zongyan and his guard general Xiang Ming are still alone in the camp, and I don’t know what they will think...

There was a suffocating silence in the tent, and Li Yuan also had a headache. For these surrendered barbarians, after all, the order to "wait for the final decision by me" was not intentionally leaving room for the soldiers below to take advantage of it, but that they did not consider the way to deal with it clearly.

It is understandable that Xiang Zongyan and the Xiang tribe behind him were the culprits who offered a poisonous miasma plan to Tian Hongyou in the previous period, resulting in the death of all 8,000 elite soldiers of the Tang army and Luo Erhu almost died.

As the saying goes, blood debts are paid for, so even if Xiang Zongyan leads his troops to invest, Li Yuan did not treat Xiang Zongyan like Peng Shiyu, but instead tied them back to the camp. Both sides knew very well that after the war, Xiang would always pay the price for the previous Tang army.

The difference in the size of the price is just a choice between Xiang Zongyan and the San Thousand Tribes.

Li Yuan originally thought that Xiang Zongyan had some contributions, and not only informed him of important information - the poisonous miasma was used up, but also allowed the Tang army to seize Huixi Village without any effort. Therefore, after repeated discussions with Peng Shiyu, he decided to wait until the war ended. After the situation in the three states was stable, he only killed Xiang Zongyan, leaving behind three thousand young and strong Xiang clans to survive.

However, since the situation in Xizhou City is still unclear and it is not possible to ensure that what Xiang Zongyan said is not false, so how to deal with these three thousand young men can only be put aside for the time being, and leave their lives for the time being, and then decide after the war.

But unexpectedly, someone made a decision overnight. Li Yuan said in his heart that he had no sympathy for these barbarians, but he regretted giving the defense mission to Liu Jiangsheng and Zhu Kuangcong. Although this battle last night greatly relieved the anger accumulated by the soldiers in the army for a long time, it was an impersonation of the order. If the commander of the three armies did not deal with the aftermath in time, it would probably not be a good sign if he had a chain reaction in the future.

When asked about Liu Jiangsheng's specific situation last night, Li Yuan felt angry and funny after hearing this. The sworn brother's approach this time was as "calm" as ever. He only said that after entering the village, he was eager to observe Luo Erhu, and his feelings were too deep, so he had time to stop the situation outside the village. Zhu Kuangcong also took over the responsibility and admitted that he was on the spot and said that it had nothing to do with Liu Duzhi.

Zhu Kuangcong has always been reckless, but this time he found a reason and there were many soldiers who proved that the barbarians were indeed taking the sword and provoking him first. But in the end, if we want to hold the blame for the usurpation, the first person to bear the blame is not Zhu Kuangcong, but Liu Jiangsheng, as the main general, was suspected of dereliction of duty by just using his words.

Li Yuan understood Liu Jiangsheng's state of mind very well. After this honest man learned that Luo Erhu died, he showed an extremely sad expression for the first time, which was contrary to the normal state of easy-goingness, with a strong murderous aura on his face. Although Luo Erhu miraculously "resurrected" the three brothers, including Li Yuan, hatred for the barbarian soldiers can be described as being imprinted in their bones.

Therefore, there was a little joy hidden in Li Yuan's heart, but due to the majesty of the coach and the presence of Peng Shiyu, he had to act.

Liu Jiangsheng and Zhu Kuangcong naturally had to deal with it, especially the reckless Zhu Kuangcong. Although this person is indeed loyal and brave, he has to admire his decisiveness according to the situation last night, no matter what, the crime of usurpation must not be despised. If he indulges in the face of ignoring it, he will not know what trouble will cause in the future.

Just talking about killing prisoners and surrendering, the target of this time is the barbarian soldiers with deep hatred, so Li Yuan did not want to worry too much, but if he killed the subdued Han people in the future, he would have to think about it again and again. After all, the impact is the big thing in his heart...

As for Peng Shiyu, he still had to use him to continue to govern the three states to stabilize the rear of Langzhou. The oath with him was still important. Therefore, Li Yuan still needed to give him an explanation on the surface. Moreover, this expedition was also nominally for Peng Shiyu to regain his foundation. He also regarded the tribes of Dongxi as their own people, and destroyed the three thousand young and strong Xiang family in one battle, which was equivalent to extermination of the clan, and even killed Peng Shiyu's arm that had just been installed.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan had already made a decision in his heart. Looking at the two people kneeling in front of him, frowned, slapped the table and shouted: "You are so brave! I ordered you and the two of you to lead the army to take over, so where did you issue a military order to kill prisoners?! Even though the battle last night was initiated by the barbarians, you and the two of you were wrongly dealt with! It's a pity that our army suffered no losses last night, otherwise I would have to punish them heavily!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the seemingly stern words made the generals laugh secretly. Liu Jiangsheng was silent, but Zhu Kuangcong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly raised his head and grinned and said, "Master! What you mean is that the last one is innocent..."

Li Yuan felt helpless and immediately glared and scolded: "Stop talking! You are thick-skinned! This general has not yet pursued your crime of usurping the military order!"

"Master, the last general is forced to do so! The barbarians are provoking first, and the last general has no choice but to deal with it at the right time, and the last general also had a big victory last night..."

Li Yuan laughed coldly and said, "Bah! What a bullshit victory? They killed all unarmed prisoners of war and had the face to speak out? Will you kill another three thousand enemies for me to see when siege the city next time?"

Zhu Kuangcong was so happy that he knelt on his knees, but he still straightened his waist, grinned and nodded and smiled, "Mr. General! Just look at it, if the general is the pioneer, the general must-"
