Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 735 Expedition to Youzhou
Tang Dynasty medical clinics did start selling Mafeisan.

Of course, Qin Tian only provided the secret recipe, and asked Bian Su to make anything.

Qin Tian has almost prepared everything that should be prepared now, and soon, he will set out to conquer Youzhou.

The day before his departure, Qin Tian came into the palace.

In the imperial study room, the monarch and his ministers are sitting.

"Qin Aiqing, I know all about you delivering your sister's baby."

Qin Tian blushed slightly, and said: "It's a last resort, otherwise I wouldn't have done such a thing."

Birth delivery is generally the job of a stable wife, who is also one of the six wives, and the ancients emphasized that the sixth wives are not as good as the family.

Qin Tian, ​​as the Marquis of the Tang Dynasty, and also the prime minister, but now he is doing the work of delivering babies, it is inevitable that someone will say something.

Li Shimin was open-minded, and said: "It's okay to do these things to save someone's life. I'm not so stupid as to discriminate between black and white."

"Saint is wise."

"You don't have to flatter me anymore, but your caesarean section skills must be passed on."

"Don't worry, my lord, I have already taught Bian Suwen that if anyone has a difficult labor, you can go to her. Moreover, there is Mafeisan in the Tang Dynasty Medical Center, which can greatly relieve the pain of the mother, but this thing may be harmful to the child. There is a certain impact, try to use it as little as possible.”

Li Shimin nodded, and after chatting with Qin Tian for a few words, he finally got to the big issue.

"Are you leaving tomorrow?"

"Yes, the [-] mansion soldiers and the mad demon army of the ministers are all ready. Among them, [-] soldiers and horses of the mad demon army are equipped with Tang swords, and [-] mansion soldiers are equipped with Tang swords. In addition, there are Great Tang Divine Crossbow, Zhuge Liannu, Cavalrymen, Catapults, etc."

Although there are only 5000 people, all the powerful weapons of Datang are brought with them now. Of course, the Modao team is excepted. The current Modao team is still in the training stage and is temporarily unavailable. You have to wait.

Li Shimin nodded again after listening, Youzhou City is difficult to attack, it is very necessary to bring these weapons.

He hesitated for a while before finally asking: "Qin Aiqing, how sure are you of this battle?"

"Your Majesty, if there is enough food and grass, I have a [-]% certainty that I can capture Youzhou City and destroy Luo Yi, but if the food and grass supply is not in time, then I am only [-]% sure."

Hearing that Qin Tian's confidence is quite high, Li Shimin was somewhat relieved: "Okay, if you need anything, just tell me."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin thought of something again and asked, "Is Duke Yi going?"

"The adoptive father will not go, but the adoptive father once hoped that I could spare the lives of Luo Yi and Luo Tong."

Hearing this, Li Shimin sighed softly: "Yiguo's righteous Bo Yuntian was famous during the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and he still doesn't forget it now. Luo Tong is the son of Luo Cheng, and he is young. , I can't bear to kill him."

Li Shimin only mentioned Luo Tong, but did not mention Luo Yi. The meaning is already clear, Luo Tong can be spared, but Luo Yi is absolutely not.

Luo Yi is very capable and has considerable influence. If he does not die, it will be difficult for Datang to completely control Youzhou.

Qin Tian nodded in response, and the two monarchs and ministers had a long talk. Early the next morning, Qin Tian left Chang'an City with [-] soldiers and horses.

Along with them, apart from Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, and Yu Chigong, there were also Cheng Chumo and others. Because Qin Huaiyu had some relationship with Luo Yi after all, he didn't come either.

The group of people was mighty and mighty, approaching Baozhou, which was enfeoffed by Luo Yi.

To attack Youzhou, you must first break through Baozhou.
-
And just as the Tang army marched towards Baozhou in mighty force, the news that Li Shimin was going to use troops against Youzhou had already spread one after another.

Luo Yi was shocked when he heard the news.

"What, Li Shimin actually wants to use troops against me in Youzhou?" What was supposed to come finally came, but it came a little suddenly and a little fast, which made Luo Yi a little unexpected for a while.

Datang has just experienced a battle with the Turks, and it has only been two years since the signing of the Weishui alliance. Does Datang really have the strength to break through Youzhou?
Luo Yi walked back and forth, very angry.

"Why did Li Shimin use troops against me?" Although he knew that he had done things conveniently for the Turks, Li Shimin never mentioned it. He had to have a reason for using troops against him suddenly. Otherwise, other vassal kings would just Don't worry, something will happen.

"On New Year's Eve, Li Shimin was assassinated. After investigation, the assassin admitted that you, the prince, sent him."

"It's nonsense, it's just slander..."

Luo Yi scolded for a while, and was even more annoyed at Li Shimin. He naturally knew that there was no reason for Li Shimin to use troops against him, but thinking of Li Shimin's shamelessness, he still couldn't help being angry.

After cursing a few words like this, he immediately ordered: "Go and call all the counselors and generals of this king. This king wants to discuss the strategy of defending against the enemy."

Not long after giving the order, Luo Yi's subordinates hurried over. There are more than 20 counselors and generals, and they still look very spectacular.

Among these people, two are the most conspicuous. One of them is slender and has a beautiful beard. He is Luo Yi's number one adviser, Zhuge Wen.

The other person has a burly figure, a rough appearance, and is even darker. He is the number one general in Youzhou, Luo Han, and Luo Yi's adopted son.

After these people arrived, Zhuge Wen asked, "My lord, you asked me to wait in such a hurry, but what happened?"

Luo Yi nodded, and couldn't help cursing again: "This Li Shimin actually slandered me and sent people to assassinate him. Now, he has sent troops to come to Baozhou. You think, what should I do now? ?”

Hearing that Li Shimin sent troops to come, all the soldiers were shocked.

This is going to war with Datang, and their good days may be coming to an end.

However, soon, they stood up.

"My lord, Li Shimin doesn't want the vassal king to exist at all, and I'm afraid it will be a matter of time before he takes action against the vassal king. Now that they are here, we will fight them.

"That's right, the terrain of our Youzhou is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the 20 soldiers and horses sent by the backer Yang Lin never captured it. Can Li Shimin do it now?"

"That is, as long as you defend Youzhou City, they will do nothing to us."

Luo Yi has been operating in Youzhou for many years, and the people under him can be said to be loyal to him. Now facing the attack of the imperial court's soldiers and horses, none of them has the intention of surrendering.

Seeing this situation, Luo Yi was somewhat satisfied. It was not easy for Li Shimin to kill him, and it was even more impossible to capture him without a fight.

However, just shouting like this will not solve the problem at all.

"Everyone is right, but now that the Tang Army soldiers and horses are coming to us, how should we defend against the enemy?"
