Under the city, the Tang army camp surrounded the city on three sides like a crescent moon, in the camp, the army was drilling, Fan Lihua was wearing a silver armor and white cloak, patrolling on the side, Fan Shui and the flying eagle followed closely behind Fan Lihua.

"Report-" Suddenly, a scout rushed over, shouted loudly, and when he got closer, he saluted Fan Lihua and said urgently, "Report to the deputy head of Fan, there are five hundred Yulin troops coming from the northeast!" ”

"Yulin Army?" Fan Lihua was stunned when she heard this, and then her eyebrows furrowed, Yulin Jun came here at this time, there must be an important imperial order to convey, and now is an important time to conquer Tubo, and suddenly the imperial order came, which is not a good thing.

Fan Lihua was silent for a moment before saying, "Go and see!" With that, he strode towards Beiyingkou.

Walking to Beiyingkou, Fan Lihua looked northeast with a telescope, and sure enough, she saw five hundred Lin Jun really riding horses and dusting towards this side, the speed was so fast, Fan Lihua suddenly put down the binoculars, frowned, and didn't know what she was thinking.

After about ten minutes, Li Yuanzhong approached the camp with five hundred Yulin troops, and the Qinghai guards patrolling along the way saw them and stepped forward to stop them, but Li Yuanzhong seemed to have shown some documents, and these patrolling Qinghai guards were allowed to go.

Soon, Li Yuanzhong came to Beiyingkou with the Yulin Army, Li Yuanzhong dismounted and walked in front of Fan Lihua, and bowed: "I've seen Chief Fan." ”

Fan Lihua returned the salute: "General Li, suddenly brought the Yulin Army here, I don't know what is important?" ”

Li Yuanzhong is not too familiar with Fan Lihua, so naturally he will not be as polite as he is with Li Hao, and said with a straight face: "Li specially came here, naturally there is an imperial order to convey, please ask Manager Fan to prepare the incense case to welcome the holy decree." ”

The sense of foreboding in Fan Lihua's heart became stronger and stronger, but Li Yuanzhong said that there was a holy decree, and she couldn't think much about it for the time being, so she turned her head to Fan Shui and Feiying and said: "Hurry up and go to the tooth tent to prepare the incense case, and ask the marching managers of all walks of life to go to my tooth tent to welcome the holy decree!" ”

"Yes!" The two turned and sped away.

Fan Lihua gave way to Li Yuanzhong and made a gesture of invitation: "General Li, please come to the tooth tent to announce the decree." ”

Li Yuanzhong nodded, took the holy decree and the official document of the military department from the hands of the subordinates, and walked into the camp with Fan Lihua.

Beiyingkou is more than four miles away from the tooth tent, the two of them are not walking fast, and when they come to the tooth tent, Fan Shui and Feiying have already prepared incense cases in the tooth tent, and the marching managers of all roads stand in front of the tooth tent, waiting for Fan Lihua.

Originally, they heard that there was a holy decree, Qin Huaiyu and the others were very surprised, when they saw that it was Li Yuanzhong who came to announce the decree, they were all surprised, Fan Lihua joined the Tang Dynasty not long ago, and Li Yuanzhong was not familiar with it, but Qin Huaiyu Cheng Chubi They have known Li Yuanzhong for a day or two, Cheng Chubi glared and exclaimed: "General Li, how could it be you who came to announce the decree?" ”

Qin Huaiyu frowned and asked, "General Li, is it ...... What happened to the DPRK and China? ”

Li Yuanzhong was in charge, so it was difficult to answer them for the time being, so he only said lightly: "Let's announce the decree first, and you will know later." ”

Everyone was helpless, and entered the tooth tent, headed by Fan Lihua, standing neatly in front of the incense case to welcome the holy decree.

The content of this decree is very short, only saying that Li Hao and Fan Lihua will be relieved of military power, and Li Yuanzhong will lead the army back to Qinghai and hand it over to Qinghai Wei, and there is no mention of taking Li Hao back to Chang'an for trial.

After the reading of the holy decree, everyone was stunned, Fan Lihuaxiu's eyes were round, and her face was full of anger and shouted: "How can this be reasonable, the food in the city has been exhausted, just wait for another ten days, the general manager can lead the troops to take the city in one fell swoop, and the court will withdraw the army at this moment!" Outrageous! ”

Li Yuanzhong furrowed his eyebrows when he heard this, and said coldly: "General Fan, please pay attention to your words and deeds, what you have in front of you is a holy decree!" ”

"What about the Holy Decree! Will be out! The monarch is not subject to it! Fan Lihua still said indignantly, "The imperial court is not very clear about our army's attack on Tibet, so naturally it is impossible to make a correct decision. Let's take the order again! ”

If it were someone else, Li Yuanzhong would have been furious, and actually threatened to refuse to accept the holy decree, this is to rebel, but Li Yuanzhong endured it, for Li Hao, he endured it, because Fan Lihua is under Li Hao's command, if Fan Lihua is labeled as a rebel, then Li Hao will not escape the responsibility, and the gang led by the eldest grandson Wuji in the court are waiting for Li Hao to make a mistake, and if the matter of Fan Lihua's refusal to accept the holy decree is spread out, then Li Hao is really dead this time.

Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chuliang on the side secretly pulled Fan Lihua's armarmor and glanced at her, but Fan Lihua turned a blind eye.

Li Yuanzhong was helpless, and sure enough, as Li Hao said, Fan Lihua's temper was not very good, and he really refused to accept the holy decree, so he took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Fan Lihua and said: "This is a letter from King Qiongnan to you, he said that if you refuse to accept the order, you can read his letter first." ”

Fan Lihua took the letter, tore open the envelope, unfolded the letterhead, and saw a sentence written on it: "If you resist the order, the whole army will die." ”

Seeing this line of words, Fan Lihua was shocked, stunned there, in a pair of bright eyes, tears swayed, left along her cheeks, dripping on the letterhead, tears full of bitter anger and grievances.

Li Yuanzhong didn't know what Li Hao wrote in the letter, but seeing Fan Lihua's reaction like this, he knew that Li Hao's letter had worked, and after waiting for a while, he slowly handed over the holy decree and said angrily: "General Fan, please accept the order." ”

Fan Lihua clutched the letter paper into a paper ball, stuffed it into her arms, and stepped forward to take the holy decree.

Fan Lihua was born with divine power, but holding this volume of holy decrees, but felt heavy as a mountain, such a small volume of holy decrees, let Qinghai Wei's hard work for months be in vain, so that the action of conquering Tubo fell short, she didn't know how to explain to the army outside the account is excited to practice, she just told the army this morning, ten days later, in one fell swoop, capture some cities, from then on Tubo into Tang soil, all the soldiers were excited after hearing it, drilled harder, some people have even begun to think about the capture of some cities, how to reward them in the imperial court, she has always been a man of his word in her life, and she has never let go of a lie, but today, she is going to break her promise to the army of 70,000.

Seeing Fan Lihua's sad, angry and aggrieved appearance, Li Yuanzhong felt unhappy, and was silent for a moment, Li Yuanzhong said: "General Fan, I will take over the three armies later, if you have any questions now, please ask, I will answer you if I can answer." ”

Fan Lihua wiped away her tears, raised her eyes to look at Li Yuanzhong, and asked, "Okay, let me ask you, you have already met Li Hao, what did he say about this matter?" ”

Li Yuanzhong said: "King Qiongnan's mood is similar to that of General Fan, but King Qiongnan didn't show it, he didn't say anything, just said that Li Mou came to you to announce the decree, he said that you have a strong temper and don't necessarily obey the order, so he asked Li to bring this letter to you." ”

Fan Lihua was silent for a moment, and then asked: "The court said that Li Hao was suspected of rebellion, is it just as simple as taking away the military power of me and Li Hao?" ”

Li Yuanzhong said: "Naturally, it won't be so simple, in the holy decree to King Qiongnan, it is stated that I will escort Li Hao back to Chang'an for trial." ”

"What!" Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chuliang exclaimed in unison when they heard this, "The chief manager didn't do anything wrong, why did the imperial court treat him like this!" ”

Li Yuanzhong said helplessly: "This is all a decision of the imperial court, forgive Li for inconvenience." ”

Fan Lihua thought for a while, and then asked: "There must be a demon who is responsible for this incident, and General Li also asks me to tell who did it." ”

Li Yuanzhong shook his head and said: "I forgive Li for not being able to tell me about this matter, if General Fan really wants to know, when he sees King Qiongnan, he will know as soon as he asks." ”

Fan Lihua nodded and said coldly, "I'm done asking my question." ”

Li Yuanzhong said: "Then, without further ado, please ask General Fan to hand over the military power to Li." He said that he took out his official document from the Ministry of War.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, not long after the sergeants had finished lunch, they were taking a lunch break, when suddenly the marching directors of all walks of life notified everyone to assemble at the school grounds.

Then, in front of more than 70,000 troops, Fan Lihua announced that he would hand over the military power to Li Yuanzhong, the general of the Yulin Army, and handed over the transfer of troops.

However, this is nothing, when Li Yuanzhong took over the military power, he read the last holy decree in public, that is, to give up the attack on Tubo, and Li Yuanzhong led the army back to Qinghai Wei, and handed over the army to Peng Hai, the general of Qinghai Wei, and all the marching generals will automatically leave their posts and return to Chang'an to report on their work.

As soon as this holy decree was read, the whole army exploded, although Qinghai Wei was strictly disciplined, but they were all a group of brave and arrogant soldiers, such soldiers, the most admired wise and brave leaders, the most disgusted with stupid and absurd decision-making, there was no fool present, people with brains could see that this holy decree was a stupid decree, they were all angry.

After months of hard work, a year or two of training in the Qinghai region, and the sacrifice of nearly 10,000 comrades-in-arms, what is it for, is to conquer Tubo and eliminate the biggest and last hidden danger of the Tang Dynasty, which is their greatest glory and mission as Qinghai Wei, and now, a stupid edict sent by the imperial court to wipe out everything they have, and it is at the moment of imminent victory, this kind of thing is impossible for anyone to accept. Li Hao couldn't accept it, but he was deep in the city and knew how to forbear, so he endured it; Fan Lihua couldn't accept it, but for the sake of Qinghai Wei, she also endured it; But these 70,000 Qinghai guards they are just a bunch of martial artists, they don't understand the overall situation, and they don't understand what the city government and forbearance, they accepted a thought when they were trained by the devil, they were born to destroy Tibet, and two arrows were shot in the city yesterday, this is their spies in the news, indicating that the city of Luo has run out of food, victory is in sight, only ten days, Tubo no longer exists, now they want to give up? No way!

The 70,000 Qinghai guards were furious, and the strict discipline that had always been strict collapsed in an instant, some people shouted, some people roared, and some people had red eyes, threatening to go up and kill Li Yuanzhong with one shot......

Li Yuanzhong knew before setting off that this mission was not a good errand, and the Qinghai Wei army would definitely have emotions, which even Li Zhi expected, but he didn't expect that Qinghai Wei would be so excited after hearing the news of the withdrawal.
