Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 738
In mid-February, the weather was so good that people wanted to die in this spring.

There are gentle winds everywhere, blooming flowers everywhere, and greenery everywhere.

Qin Tian rushed towards Baozhou with his soldiers and horses, he was reluctant to speed up along the way.

However, the matter of exterminating Luo Yi was a bit urgent, so even so, they continued to move quickly, and they arrived outside Baozhou City not long after.

The reason why Baozhou is called Baozhou is to defend Youzhou.

If you want to conquer Youzhou, you must first conquer Baozhou, otherwise you will have nowhere to go to Youzhou.

It was afternoon when Tang Jun came to the boundary of Baozhou, so they were not in a hurry to attack the city, but set up camp five miles outside Baozhou city.

The soldiers set up their camps, while Qin Tian, ​​Xu Maogong, Cheng Yaojin and others were discussing how to attack the city in the army camp.

"Everyone, we have arrived in Baozhou, and there will be a big battle soon. However, do you have any ideas on how to fight this battle?"

Qin Tian asked, Cheng Yaojin said: "How else can we fight? Take a rest today for one night, and tomorrow morning, we can directly attack the city. We have the Godly Crossbow of the Tang Dynasty and trebuchets, and we are afraid of a small Baozhou City?"

Cheng Yaojin looked down on Baozhou and Acheng, thinking that as long as they sent troops, they could take it.

However, Cheng Yaojin didn't take it seriously, but Li Ji smiled: "Baozhou had [-] soldiers and horses guarding it before. I heard that Luo Yi's son Luo Buping brought [-] soldiers and [-] soldiers. Horses are not easy to attack, we only have [-], and we will attack Youzhou in the future, siege is not the best choice for us."

In terms of war, Li Ji is much better than Cheng Yaojin. What Cheng Yaojin said, he didn't think through his brain, he just knew how to fight.

After Li Ji finished speaking, the others looked at each other, and naturally they didn't think that direct attack was a good choice.

"Mr. Britain, since the siege is not good for us, what do you think we should do? It seems impossible to let them go out of the city to fight us."

Everyone looked at Li Ji, Qin Tian also cast his gaze over, Li Ji thought for a while, and said: "Luo Buping is a somewhat reckless person, and he was defeated by Qin Tian before, if you can irritate him, let him If we go out of the city to fight, we don't have to attack the city."

Thinking of what Luo Buping did in Chang'an City back then, everyone felt that what Li Ji said made sense. Such a person should be easily irritated, right?

Qin Tian thought for a while, and said: "In that case, tomorrow morning, we will go outside the city to fight and force Luo Buping to go out of the city and fight with us."

Everyone didn't discuss too much, so after agreeing, they each retreated to rest.

At this time in Baozhou City, Luo Buping had also learned the news of Tang Jun's arrival and was making some arrangements.

The night passed like this, and the next morning, the weather was clear and the breeze was smoky.

Qin Tian arrived at the foot of Baozhou city with his soldiers and horses, and at this time Luo Buping had already arrived at the city tower.

When he saw Qin Tian under the city, Luo Buping's expression became very ugly. Back then, this was the person who robbed his elder brother Luo Cheng of the Ninth Princess, and even beat him up.

Now, it can be said that enemies meet each other, and they are extremely jealous.

However, although he was very angry in his heart, he was very calm at this time.

"My father, King Yan, did not offend the Holy Majesty. Why did the Holy Majesty send troops to attack?" Luo Buping asked. In a war, you must have a well-known teacher. If you have an unknown teacher, it will easily affect morale.

Now, Luo Buping will use this to weaken the morale of the Tang army.

Here, Qin Tian chuckled: "Did you offend the Holy Majesty? What a joke. I hate sending assassins to assassinate the Holy Majesty with the intention of rebelling. Isn't this considered an offense? It’s simply collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. Isn’t this an offense? Any fault of the king of Yan is enough to kill the nine clans. If the king of Yan doesn’t want to be killed, he should surrender quickly. This Marquis captured Youzhou City, and his body must be broken into pieces."

For Luo Buping's careful thinking, Qin Tian is naturally clear, and Qin Tian is clear, and naturally he will fight back. The assassination is not true, but the Turkic entry is absolutely true.

In this way, there are truths and falsehoods in his words, but he can refute Luo Buping, and the Weishui alliance is the only thing Tang Jun hates. Now that he mentions it, it will only make Tang Jun's morale stronger.

After Qin Tian finished speaking, Luo Buping was a little speechless. There was indeed no assassination, but it was absolutely true that the Turks were sent to attack Chang'an. At that time, Li Shimin's strength was not good, so he didn't bother them. , but if you don't make trouble, it doesn't mean you forget about it.

Luo Buping frowned, but he refused to admit it.

"Slander, this is all slander."

Qin Tian chuckled: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, a defeated general. This Marquis regrets it a bit. If I knew that you father and son are nothing like this, when you were in Chang'an City, you should be abolished, so that you can never jump around again. Get up, but it doesn't matter now, it's not too late to kill you now."

Now, Qin Tian has started to bring up old things again, which angered Luo Buping, and when he said this, Luo Buping on the tower did indeed show his anger. What happened back then was a heartache for him.

Not to mention being beaten by Qin Tian, ​​he was even laughed at.

Angry, angry, but even though Luo Buping was angry, he soon regained his composure. He was no longer the reckless boy he was back then, and he naturally knew the purpose of Qin Tian's words.

Nothing more, just want him to go out of the city to fight.

Did Qin Tian think he could succeed by just saying a few words like this?

Qin Tian was talking below, his mouth was a little dry, and when Qin Tian stopped, Luo Buping suddenly burst out laughing: "Have you said enough? Let me tell you, even if you talk about hype, what you say No matter how unbearable I am, I will never go out of the city to fight with you, if you have the ability, come and attack the city, if you have no ability, don't beep below."

When Luo Buping said this, Qin Tian and the others were stunned for a moment, miscalculating.

They didn't expect that the reckless young man back then would be mature and rational now, and he wouldn't be reckless because of some verbal insults.

This is something they really didn't expect.

Qin Tian was speechless, what he said just now was for nothing.

He turned his head and glanced at Li Ji. Li Ji curled his lips and shrugged helplessly. He didn't expect this kind of situation.

But now that Luo Buping is not affected, and he refuses to go out to fight, if they retreat like this, it will definitely have a great impact on their morale, and the situation is starting to get worse.

To fight, or not to fight?
