A few days later, Li Wuwu sent back the news that the governor of Jizhou had killed the unannounced observer sent by Yushitai. After being exposed, he had fled to Youzhou, and Cui Yuan was with him.

Li Ai, the governor of Youzhou, took them in, and raised a flag of rebellion, claiming that there were 30 horses, accusing Li Shimin of being the emperor who had usurped the throne, and called on the world to raise the banner of righteousness to welcome back the great ancestor Li Yuan.

Li Yuan is Li Yuan's nephew, who was named the king of Lujiang, and at the same time served as the governor of Youzhou.

Although he was weak, but because Li Yuan was always worried about generals with foreign surnames, he only dared to hand over the military power to the clan prince, but he still put him in the important position of Youzhou.

Moreover, Li Yuan also equipped Li Yuan with a deputy, the fierce general Wang Junkuo.

Prince Qin's Mansion, Staff Office.

Li Wenbin, Empress Changsun, Gao Shilian, Wei Zheng, and Hou Junji were discussing how to deal with Li Ai.

According to Hou Junji's meaning, he led a large army to suppress Li Ai's rebellion.

But Gao Shilian and Wei Zheng disagreed: Jizhou is already poor, and coupled with the disaster of swords and soldiers, it may already be like a hell on earth, and it is really not suitable for a large army to go out.

Moreover, even though Li Ai had a so-called 30 army, he could actually muster at least 10 people, so how many people should be sent to suppress it?

If there is too much, the logistics supply will not be able to supply; if there is too little, it will not be of much use.

"Queen, my son has an idea. Let me lead a hundred horses to suppress the rebellion. What do you think?"

Wei Zheng disagreed at first: "No, Your Highness, you are the supervisor of the country, how can you leave the center lightly?"

Even the eldest grandson thought this way: "Your Majesty ordered you to be a supervisor, but you went to Youzhou to quell the rebellion, so what should the court do? Could it be impossible to appoint another supervisor? Wouldn't that be child's play?"

Gao Shilian's reason is also very good, it is the reason of how many people he brought.

Li Wenbin smiled: "I just need to bring the [-] cavalry and [-] auxiliary soldiers. As for the supplies, Youzhou is rich, so you can support them by fighting."

In the end, Li Wenbin persuaded others, including the eldest grandson, as the supervisor of the country.

The next day, Li Wenbin led the army to set off, and the empress's eldest grandson Wugou was the prime minister.

When the news reached Li Shimin's army, His Majesty the Tang Emperor was stunned.

Changsun Wuji said helplessly: "Your Majesty, you let King Qin supervise the country, but His Highness went to Youzhou to suppress the rebellion. This..."

"Wuji, I'm not worried about this. I'm only worried that the King of Qin, who only brought one thousand cavalry and three thousand auxiliary soldiers, didn't even bring any luggage, so he wants to conquer the entire Youzhou?"

"Hehe, the queen also said that one thousand cavalry can be worth one hundred thousand soldiers, and they are the most elite in the world. If this is true, then what are these soldiers I bring?"

Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong looked at each other: "Your Majesty, I think His Royal Highness King Qin's first expedition is a good idea, and no matter what, it is to share the country's worries. This move should be praised. It would be unbeautiful to order a reprimand. .”

Li Shimin thought about it for a long time. Anyway, Li Wenbin had already led the army, so he couldn't be allowed to return to Chang'an - if he did that, no one would listen to Li Wenbin in the future.

Forget it, isn't it just a thousand cavalrymen?

"The decree is to appoint Li Wenbin, the King of Qin, as the general manager of the Hedong and Hebei road marches, and act cheaply."

"Urgently send it to King Qin's army at [-] Li, without error."

"Here."

The addition of the title of chief executive is tantamount to making Li Wenbin the governor of Hebei, who can manage both military and political affairs, which shows how deep Li Shimin's expectations are for him.

After reading this news, and then reading the next one, Li Shimin's eyebrows twitched with joy.

He slapped the table heavily, and laughed loudly: "It's wonderful, it's wonderful. The King of Qin actually made such a happy event without making a sound."

Changsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin looked at each other, but they didn't know what happened.

You were frowning just now, but now you can't even close your mouth when you smile?
What is the big happy event, you should hurry up and say it.

"Your Majesty, you are so happy, what happened?"

"Hey, it's really a blessing for me in the Tang Dynasty. The king of Qin, who didn't know where he found the way to prevent Lupus, and Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, led nine medicine men in the clothes of Lupus patients to live in the cave for two days. months, and it turned out to be safe and sound."

"What, it can prevent Lupus?"

Everyone was stunned, and then became ecstatic.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, from now on, the people of the Tang Dynasty will no longer have to worry about the disaster of the sore."

It didn't take long for the whole army to know the great news, and Li Shimin immediately ordered: add dinner tonight to celebrate this great event together.

All of a sudden, thunderous cheers were heard in the Tang army camp, spreading dozens of miles away.

……

"Your Highness, this is an imperial decree from His Majesty, appointing you as the general manager of the two marches in Hedong and Hebei, and you can do things cheaply."

After receiving the imperial decree from Xi Junmai, Li Wenbin looked at it carefully, and nodded: "It seems that Father not only forgave me the crime of beheading first, but also gave me such great rights."

"Here is a letter from His Majesty."

Opening the letter, Li Wenbin was dumbfounded after reading it.

What Li Shimin said in the letter was nothing more than a few points: remember to ensure your own safety, if it really doesn't work, it doesn't matter if you escape by yourself.Remember to be able to listen to the advice of the veteran general balabalalba...

Hey, it seems that my cheap father still doesn't know much about the Hundred Cavalry Army.

Then let him see how the Hundred Cavalry Army, who has been trained in body forging and is equipped with new armor, horse warfare weapons, and exotic horses, will play a role.

Putting the letter close to his body, Li Wenbin waved his whip and pointed: "March faster, camp in Weizhou tonight."

"Here!"

Ever since, the people of Weizhou saw a very strange cavalry team:

The burly and somewhat outrageous cavalrymen were riding on a pair of nauseous horses, and they were only wearing leather armor.

Behind them were hundreds of carts with deep ruts, and they didn't know what was loaded on them. It seemed that each cart weighed hundreds of catties.

And at the end of the team, there are thousands of horses stronger than cattle.

Good guy, those war horses are more than two ends taller than ordinary war horses, and their legs are like pillars-according to the postman who helped feed the war horses, those war horses all eat meat!

Meat eaters?
Even people can't afford meat, how can these horses eat meat?

Looking at these war horses, the governor of Weizhou was in cold sweat.

Fortunately, this brigade of cavalry was only stationed outside Weizhou and did not enter the city, and they also brought their own luggage. Otherwise, I am afraid that emptying the treasury of Weizhou would only make these troops full.
