Chapter 742: Go and Invite the Turks
The news of the destruction of Baozhou City soon spread to Youzhou City.
"Lord Wang, the city of Baozhou is broken, and the prince ...... The prince was killed by Qin Tian. ”
The spy told the news, and after Luo Yi heard the news, he couldn't help but take a step back.
"What, the son of the world was killed, this ...... How is this possible? ”
Luo Yi was very distressed, although Luo Buping was not his biological son, but it was almost the same, but Luo Buping was killed like this.
How is this possible?
As long as you stick to the city gate and don't go out, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, not to mention that they will definitely be able to resist the Tang army, but it should be no problem to resist for a few months, but it will only be a long time, and it will not be half a month.
When it comes to siege, it's only two or three days.
In two or three days, he lost Baozhou City, and he didn't believe anything.
Luo Yi's expression was very painful, and the spy told him about the situation again.
"The prince did not listen to persuasion, was provoked by Qin Tian, went out of the city to fight with the Tang army, but was defeated, half of the soldiers and horses were lost, and later the Tang army attacked the city again, and it was captured......"
The spy muttered about the specific situation, and Luo Yi became more and more distressed after listening to it.
"I'm not even, I'm not ......"
Luo Yi shouted a few times, and then, suddenly gloomy, he ordered: "Go and call Mr. Zhuge and them." ”
Since the Tang army has broken through Baozhou City, they will come to Youzhou City in less than a month, and they must be prepared.
Not long after, Zhuge Wen, Luo Han and others rushed over, and when they came, they had already learned the news of the destruction of Baozhou City.
"Lord, mourning."
Zhuge Wen was the first to speak, he was still very clear about the father-son relationship between Luo Yi and Luo Buping, so he knew that Luo Yi was very sad now.
However, Luo Yi is obviously much stronger than he imagined, or rather, the hatred and sense of crisis make him not care too much about the father-son relationship now.
"Mr. Zhuge , now that the city of Baozhou is broken, the Tang army will attack it soon, what should we do next?"
Zhuge Wen said: "Lord Wang, it is imperative to send them the money, grain and grass that the Turks want, and ask the Turks to send troops to assist, after all, we only have more than 40,000 soldiers and horses left, and then there is, do a good job in the prevention of Youzhou, as long as they fight to the death with the Tang army, they can't capture Youzhou City, so they will naturally choose to compromise with the prince." ”
Luo Yi nodded, this is indeed the most important thing they should do now.
"Is there any news from the other vassal kings?"
"Lord Wang, the other vassal kings haven't moved, so I don't dare to jump out."
This result is a bit unexpected, but at the same time, it seems that I have expected that the Tang Dynasty is also famous, and other vassal kings dare to cause trouble?
Moreover, there are still more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Chang'an City today, and no one has the confidence to say that they can touch Li Shimin, and now Li Shimin has not touched their interests, so it is too difficult to let them come forward.
Luo Yi sighed secretly, and he could only give up, fortunately, there was an ally of the Turks.
After Luo Yi discussed in detail with Zhuge Wen and others, he sent someone to send grain, grass, money and other things to the Turks.
After that, they only waited for the Turks to send troops to help.
------------------------
On Qin Tian's side, after breaking through Baozhou City, they stayed here in Baozhou City for four or five days.
First, after a big battle, their soldiers needed to recuperate, and the injured also needed treatment, so it was really inappropriate to continue on their way immediately.
Then there is the people of Baozhou City who need to be appeased.
Luo Yi's political achievements in his fiefdom are actually good, at least he didn't fish the people, many people still have a lot of love for him, although many people don't really care whose people they are, but after capturing Baozhou City, what should be appeased is still to be appeased.
It is important to ensure that these people feel at ease that there will be no rebellion.
In this way, they can continue to attack Youzhou with confidence, otherwise Baozhou's side is unstable, and they will be cut off from the back road.
Of course, the last point is that those Yan soldiers who have been subdued must be trained well, lest they suddenly take refuge in Luo Yi when there is a war.
This, for some generals in the army, is not difficult.
Why did the soldiers rush desperately when they were attacking the city, knowing that they would die, in fact, a big reason was that they were brainwashed.
Brainwashed by an idea of being a country and a home.
It's not good, but sometimes it's just that useful.
After staying in Baozhou City for four or five days, Qin Tian and the others finally left and headed in the direction of Youzhou City.
On the way, it is natural to encounter resistance from some small counties, but there are not many troops in these counties at all, so the Tang army came all the way, and it can be said that they saw the city and pulled out the city.
Even some county towns took the initiative to surrender.
However, Xiao is like this, it also took them a month to finally come to the boundary of Youzhou.
At this time, it is already late spring and early summer.
The weather was getting hotter, and after the Tang army arrived, they did not rush to attack the city, but set up camp five miles outside Youzhou City.
At the same time, in Youzhou City, Luo Yi had already received the news and summoned Zhuge Wen and the others again.
"The Tang army has come, is there any news from the Turks?"
"Lord Wang, I have already sent someone to inquire, and the Jieli Khan said that he is gathering troops and horses, and in half a month, he should be able to come."
That is to say, as long as they can block the Tang army for half a month, the siege of Youzhou City can basically be solved, Luo Yi nodded, and then continued to ask: "The Tang army is here, we just need to hold on, but the Tang army's siege equipment is also very powerful, we can't be careless, now that the Tang army has just come, this king wants to attack the Tang camp at night, I don't know what you think?" ”
Taking advantage of the fact that the Tang army had just arrived, it was a very good idea to raid the Tang camp.
After Luo Yi finished speaking, Luo Han immediately said: "Father-in-law, it's good to attack Tang Ying at night, they have come from a long journey, they must be resting, although the night attack is not enough to repel them, but it is also good to let them suffer a little." ”
As the first fierce general under Luo Yi, Luo Han couldn't help but want to fight with the Tang Army, but after he said this, Zhuge Wen said: "Lord Wang, if you attack the camp, I'm afraid it's not the right time." ”
"Mr. Zhuge , the Tang army is not stable, why is it not the time?" Luo Han didn't care.
"When the Tang army first came, it may be more cautious to take precautions, in this case, the effect of our attack on the camp will not be good."
"Not necessarily."
Luo Han was very unaccustomed to Zhuge Wen's cautious attitude, and he felt that if the Tang Army did not take too strict precautions, he would miss this opportunity, and there would be no more in the future.
Tang Jun may be tired now.
The two people had different views, so they both looked at Luo Yi, Luo Yi thought for a moment, and then said: "Luo Han, tonight you take a group of soldiers and horses to raid the Tang camp, but be careful, if you find something wrong, come back immediately." ”
