Chapter 496： : Youzhou was broken, and Qin Qiong returned from injury?

And Li Shimin was also talking with Gao Chen, the eldest son of Goguryeo.

When Gao Chen proposed that he wanted to live in Datang for a period of time, appreciate the cultural landscape of Datang, and learn the educational system of Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin neither agreed nor refused.

Li Shimin just opened his mouth and said: "Different countries have different governance methods. If some methods are not used properly, it will only backfire! If the son of Goguryeo wants to stay in the Tang Dynasty for a while, I have no objection! Wait for the son After you go back, give me a greeting and send my greetings to King Taiwu!"

"Yes, Gao Chen, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Gao Chen was very grateful. He thought that Li Shimin should have accepted him and allowed him to live in Datang for a while.

The reason why Gao Chen came to Datang this time was that he wanted to learn the humanistic system and then adopt it to his own Koguryo country.

In recent years, the relationship between Goguryeo and Datang has been relatively harmonious.

It is nothing more than Tubo and Turkic who are at odds with the Tang Dynasty. Goguryeo is the weakest country among the four countries. Gao Chen can only make his country more prosperous and powerful if he works harder.

So coming to Datang to study is the best choice.

…

Li Chengfeng's song "Cao Cao" made everyone's blood surging and they couldn't get enough of it.

While everyone was having dinner and chatting, suddenly outside the door of the West Wing Pavilion, a dark-skinned man with a big beard stumbled in.

I saw his eyes were terrified and his face was covered with sweat.

Li Chengfeng took a closer look, this big old black who hurried in, wasn't Datang's founding hero, Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin?

I saw Cheng Yaojin coming to Li Shimin's side with a big head full of hair, saying: "Your Majesty, something is wrong, something is wrong!"

"Lu Guogong, why are you in such a hurry? Don't you see that I am drinking and chatting with the Crown Prince of Goguryeo?"

Li Shimin's face was a little ugly.

Because he felt that Cheng Yaojin ran in so recklessly, which violated the etiquette and demeanor of Tang Dynasty.

What's more, I am still eating with the crown prince of Goguryeo.

But what Cheng Yaojin said next made Li Shimin sweat coldly on his back.

Cheng Yaojin saw that there were many people in the attic, so he invited Li Shimin to talk outside the attic.

Outside the attic of the West Chamber, Li Shimin frowned and looked at Cheng Yaojin, and said, "Duke Lu, what happened? It made you look so anxious?"

"Report to the emperor, yes, it is Shubao who is back, Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao!" Cheng Yaojin said.

Li Shimin's eyes lit up immediately, and he said, "Shubao is back? Is this a good thing? What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Cheng Yaojin showed embarrassment, and said: "However, Shubao didn't come back normally, but came back injured!"

"What? What happened? Qin Qiong is my Great Tang Huwei General. How could he be injured? Could it be that he was injured when he was picking the Tianshan Fiery Lotus?" Li Shimin asked in surprise.

Cheng Yaojin continued to shake his head and said, "No!"

"Then how did he get hurt?"

"Reporting to the emperor, Qin Qiong said, he said that Youzhou City in the Tang Dynasty was broken. When he was looking for the Tianshan Fiery Lotus, he led 8,000 tiger and mighty cavalry to support Youzhou City, but in the end, he still failed to hold the gate of Youzhou City. In addition, there is one more terrifying thing, the old minister dare not tell the emperor!"

"What's the matter? Tell me quickly, I'm waiting to hear!"

Youzhou City is broken? Qin Qiong returned from injury? This immediately made Li Shimin's heart light up.

Li Shimin deployed at least 100,000 Tang soldiers in Youzhou City.

If the Turkic thieves wanted to break through Youzhou City, they would need an army of at least 300,000.

However, how could the Turks come up with an army of 300,000 to attack Youzhou City?

In this year of natural disasters, this is obviously not a wise choice.

Moreover, how could Qin Qiong be injured? He is a veteran general. Unless he is in a death situation, how could Qin Qiong be besieged and injured by mere Turkic thieves?

However, Cheng Yaojin suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, according to General Qin Qiong, outside Youzhou City, there are two armies jointly attacking our Youzhou City. One is the Turkic army, and the other is the Tubo army." Great army! In other words, they, the Turks and Tubo, have already begun to plan to jointly attack our Datang!"

"What? How did this happen?"

After Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, Li Shimin instantly turned pale with shock.

Even the slight drunkenness from drinking was gone in an instant.

As an emperor, Li Shimin knew how serious it would be once Tubo and Turkic countries united to attack Datang.

It can be said that with the current national strength of the Tang Dynasty, the chance of winning against one country is more than good. If it is against the two big countries of Tubo and Turks at the same time, the chance of winning is not even 30%.

However, Tubo and Turkic are obviously two hostile countries. How could they join forces to attack the most powerful Tang Empire?

"What the **** is going on?" Li Shimin clenched his fists and said with clenched teeth.

Cheng Yao was sweating hotly on his forehead, and said: "Reporting to the emperor, the old minister doesn't know, but Qin Qiong told me that, how could Shubao lie to us?"

Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao followed Li Shimin to conquer the world during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and decades have passed.

Yes, how could Qin Qiong lie to Li Shimin? However, how could Tubo and Turks suddenly unite to attack Datang together? Aren't they afraid of Datang's revenge?

The seriousness of the situation seems to have exceeded Li Shimin's imagination.

Li Shimin said: "Cheng Yaojin, how is the current Youzhou City?"

Cheng Yaojin said: "Reporting to the emperor, Youzhou City has been breached by the joint army of Tubo and Turks. A 100,000 army is not enough to stop the 300,000 Tubo and Turkic coalition forces. Therefore, this old minister is here to ask the emperor to reinforce Youzhou City." ! May I ask the emperor, do we need reinforcements?"

"Reinforcement, how could there be no reinforcement?" Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "Let Li Jing personally lead the 100,000 Great Tang Chang'an City Guards to support Youzhou City. The army of Datang is going to support Youzhou City! Youzhou City is an important part of our Datang, and we must not lose it!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave.

However, at this moment, Li Shimin continued: "Wait a minute, bite the gold, I should go with you! The matter is so important, how could I still have the intention to drink here? Wait for me for a while, I will go and talk to Ba The prince and the others talk about it, and come as soon as they go!"

"Good emperor, the old minister is waiting for you here!"

Cheng Yaojin was very uneasy, and Li Shimin was also a little uneasy.

Li Shimin's uneasiness is, how could Tubo and Turks suddenly join forces to attack Datang?

And Cheng Yaojin's anxiety is that Qin Qiong's injury is too **** serious, and now the imperial doctor Duan He is treating Qin Qiong, if it can't be cured, maybe Qin Qiong's life will die!

Qin Qiong can be said to be one of Cheng Yaojin's best brothers. When Cheng Yaojin was still a bandit, he and Qin Qiong were good brothers.

If Qin Qiong is really dead, then he, Cheng Yaojin, vowed to kill those thieves in Tubo and Turks to avenge Qin Qiong.
