Chapter 547

(Thanks to Su Li's box, willow catkins in the wind, the wind rises and water rises in 1976, wandering with the snail, pp197623 for your support!)—

Sitting in the Ganlu Hall, Yi Feng looked at the words he wrote and couldn't help but sigh that the 19th year of Kaihuang was indeed a bit surging.

Fortunately, there were no major natural disasters this year, but wars continued, and they fought non-stop since the beginning of the year. First, the Northern Expedition, dispatched 500,000 troops and millions of civilians, and then combined hundreds of thousands of foreign soldiers. This biggest war since the founding of the founding of the country was indeed very successful. The Turks who had just joined forces were defeated and were greatly injured. More than 200,000 Turkic soldiers and horses were defeated and surrendered to the Sui Dynasty. The Tieler people also took the opportunity to dominate the northern part of the Mobei, rebel against the Turks, and establish their own Khanate. If nothing unexpected happens, this is a very perfect war, planned for many years, and then achieved absolute victory in just a few months. Unfortunately, an internal strife caused the Northern Expedition to end, and then various soldiers and horses fought each other in the Central Plains. Fortunately, Yi Feng quickly emerged in this competition, and finally won "No" and "Wrong" and "Silent" to quell the civil strife in March.

But after an internal strife, the power of the Sui Kingdom seemed to have weakened a lot, and the surrounding countries began to try to provoke the Sui Kingdom and stumbled into the moon. Goguryeo sent 80,000 troops to cross the Liaohe River again, and the court had sent two armies to the west of Liaoxi. The war in western Liaoxi was not over yet, but Datou had already struggled with his troops and joined forces to attack Hexi. Time was already in autumn, but the war had no intention of stopping at all. Instead, the battle became more and more intense.

This is a very dangerous sign. Although the court still has strong military strength today, the war is about money. In each war, not only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the front, but also affects countless logistics supplies in the rear. A soldier fights on the front line. If he is fighting outside the border line, it may require three to five civil servants to provide logistics support. Then the equipment and food consumption of these soldiers and civil servants requires more support from farmers and craftsmen. If the war can be controlled within a certain scale and fight well, it is indeed

There are also benefits, expanding territory, increasing population, and harvesting money, land, and livestock. However, if the scale is not controlled, it is very dangerous. Once a certain link has a problem, it is easy to affect the entire situation. For example, the army is outside for a long time, which will make the country empty. For example, the army is fighting abroad for a long time, which will lead to large casualties of soldiers. A large number of civilians support logistics transfer of food and grass, and even many people make weapons, which will affect the cultivation of fields, harvesting of grain, and even the manufacturing of other people's biological resources. In short, the impact will be great.

Yi Feng was playing with the paperweight on the table and pondering. He was the emperor, and he had to consider these things and think about the entire situation. In history, Yang Guang, at the beginning of his succession, was actually quite active in his rule in the past few years. He really achieved literary and military morality and was famous. He established a system of the Celestial Empire and came to the court to build canals, build Great Walls, open trade roads, move capitals, destroy Tuyuhun, defeat Linyi, and surrender the Turks. It was quite impressive. But after only less than seven years, the whole country was in rebellion and wars were everywhere. Why was it just a broken chain?

Now all the court are all generals like Li Jing, who are full of passion, and they want to lift their swords and immediately sweep away all the foreign countries that refuse to surrender. Of course, it is good for the ministers to have such positive ideas, but this is also a degree. Excessive enthusiasm will make the court lose its stability and rationality, and problems will easily arise when they go to extremes. China has always advocated the doctrine of the mean, which is to pay attention to not going to extremes.

The whole country was immersed in the passion of the great Sui army now being strong and trying to wipe out all directions, but the emperor Yi Feng had to pour cold water on them and brake them.

First of all, the battle in western Liaoning is the time to end. Although the army has just begun to enter western Liaoning, Yi Feng is already considering how to end the war and how to reach a temporary armistice with Goguryeo. It is not that Yi Feng is worried that he cannot defeat Goguryeo, but on the chessboard of the whole world, Goguryeo is just a corner after all, and it is not the most important corner now. If there is no Datou attack, Yi Feng might think about it again and make a decision to make a decision based on the situation. Should he recover western Liaoning or continue to take the opportunity to advance to the east bank of the Liao River. But now, Yi Feng doesn't want to get involved in Liaodong too much. He will deal with Datou first, and then talk about the rest later.

The court has not yet prepared a comprehensive battlefield with Goguryeo. The most urgent task at present is to stabilize western Liaoning first, then divide the Turks, then divide the grasslands, and castrate this powerful force.

"After the situation in western Liaoning is clear, Li Jing will be brought back to Beijing immediately." Yi Feng issued a secret order to Liu Ying, the leader of the Special Service Department of the Supervision Bureau.

"What if Li Jing does not obey the order then?" Liu Ying asked. Li Jing was a person with a criminal record and was also the deputy envoy of the Privy Council. In the current political structure of the court, the Privy Council is a yamen alongside the Political Affairs Council. Li Jing, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, is equivalent to the deputy prime minister. He was commanding troops outside, and if he did not obey the order, Liu Ying would have no choice.

"If he really refuses to obey the order," Yi Feng frowned and sighed, "It's time to come to this point. I authorize you to take it down and escort it back to Beijing. If he dares to resist, you can be regarded as rebellious and kill it on the spot." It was also very difficult for Yi Feng to say this, but since he became the emperor, some decisions must be made no matter how difficult it is. Li Jing repeatedly ignored the emperor's will, ignored the court's strategies, and unauthorized authority. This is something the emperor could not tolerate. Once this hole was opened, the impact would be extremely bad, and at worst, it would affect the implementation of a series of decisions behind Yi Feng. For a young genius marshal, it is impossible to ignore the country.

Liu Ying's lips moved, but in the end he didn't say anything. If things really reached that point, if Li Jing dared to openly resist the order by force, no one would be able to save him. I believe that if he was a little more rational, he would know how to choose.

"Your Majesty, Queen, the Queen is about to give birth." Wang Hai trotted into the hall, panting and bringing a message.

"What's the situation now? The imperial doctor hasn't." Yi Feng quickly got up when he heard this.

"The imperial physician has been summoned. The queen is in good condition."

When Yi Feng arrived at Lizheng Hall, the queen had already started giving birth. Yi Feng was so anxious that several female officials and female doctors came up to stop him and refused to let him in.

"I want to accompany the queen to give birth myself." Yi Feng said seriously.

Everyone was stunned. This woman had never let her husband accompany her for giving birth. But the emperor was so determined and everyone hesitated. Finally, Yi Feng simply shook his sleeves and went in. After entering, Yi Feng walked to the bed regardless of the shock of the delivery doctor, and sat down, pulled Li Liyi's hand with both hands. "I'll be with you."

Giving birth is definitely a painful thing for women, especially for having a first child. Li Liyi is still so young, less than 20 years old, and the difficulty of giving birth can be imagined. Although she is the queen, the medical skills and conditions of this era are limited after all. There are many women in this era who die due to giving birth. Difficulty, postpartum infection, etc. A large proportion of women who die from giving birth, and the majority of them die from giving birth. Fortunately, Sun Simiao, a miraculous doctor, is in charge of the Medical College and the Imperial Hospital. He has obtained a lot of new medical knowledge from Yi Feng, which has greatly improved the conditions for the queen's childbirth. Life has been guaranteed, but it is still very dangerous.

Li Liyi felt a lot of abdominal pain and her whole body was already wet with sweat. Suddenly she saw the emperor coming in, and then gently said she wanted to give birth with her. At that moment, she felt extremely happy, and even had a lot of strength recovered.

The child gave birth smoothly. Even so, he still struggled for most of the day, but finally the child was born smoothly.

"Your Majesty, how about the child? Is it a man or a woman?" Li Liyi's hand was still tightly pinching Yi Feng's hand, not caring about her fatigue, and immediately asked the female doctor who delivered the baby.

"It's a prince." The medical officer carefully held the newborn, glanced between the little guy's legs, and happily reported the good news to the emperor and the queen. "Congratulations to Your Majesty and the Queen." Holding this little baby, the female doctor felt as heavy as holding a mountain. This was the prince, and the eldest son of the emperor and the queen. If nothing unexpected happened, this was the future crown prince.

Li Liyi smiled with relief. A boy is also extremely important to her as the queen. There is not much difference between the royal family and the common people's homes. In this era, the same ordinary value boys are attached to each other.

"Why don't he cry!" The queen suddenly thought of a question. The smile on her face froze, and she showed an anxious look. She struggled to sit up. Yi Feng hurriedly pressed her down and comforted her, "It won't cry immediately when the child is born, but it doesn't matter if she doesn't cry. She lifted the child's feet and gently patted his back a few times, and then she would cry."

The female doctor was about to do this, but when she heard the emperor's words, she was very surprised. She didn't expect that the emperor actually knew so much about newborn babies. She saved the instructions from the emperor and the queen, and directly lifted the child upside down as the emperor said, and then patted the little prince's butt a few times.

"Wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow." The loud baby crying sounded.

The queen smiled happily, "He cried, and his voice was so loud."

"Yes, this kid is very powerful. Although he came to the world a little earlier than the expected delivery time, his small body is still strong and his voice is loud. He will definitely be able to ride a fierce horse and drive a hard bow in the future. Well, he is just ranked third among his brothers. Maybe he can inherit the name of Yi Sanlang of the White Horse and Silver Spear in the future. He can be called Yang Sanlang of the White Horse and Silver Spear." Yi Feng laughed loudly. The child was strong. Even if he was not at the expected delivery date, his loud voice and strong body finally made him feel relieved.

It is very good for mother and son to be safe.

"Your Majesty, the Liaoxi Army is in urgent need of reporting." He was laughing when a report suddenly came from outside.

Yi Feng put away his smile and began to worry. Could something happened to Li Jing?

"Your Majesty, you're very happy. It's a good news. It's really a good news." Wang Hai first took the report and shouted to Yi Feng happily and trotted in.

"Good news? Did Li Jing succeed in the adventure again? What kind of luck is this?" Yi Feng was surprised and began to amazed at Li Jing's luck.

"A great victory, Liaodong City, Wuwei Hou Li Jing rushed to Liaodong City for a long distance and successfully captured Liaodong City, the important city of Liaohe River." Wang Tong said excitedly with the victory. Yi Feng heard that it was indeed Li Jing's victory, and was excited to immediately snatch the report. He really didn't expect that Li Jing's adventure would be successful. He had even made a plan to fail in Li Jing's long-distance raid. Not only did Li Jing not capture Liaodong City, but he might be trapped on the east bank of the Liaohe River. But he never expected that Li Jing would be so successful. He had even made the plan to fail in Li Jing's long-distance raid. Not only did Li Jing not capture Liaodong City, but he might be trapped on the east bank of the Liaohe River. But he never expected that Li Jing would be like this with 30,000 troops.

He rushed along the way, went deep into the east gate of Goguryeo, and a fortress with two inner and outer walls, but it was successful. And in terms of time, it seemed that Li Jing had set out from Songshan and had just arrived at Liaodong City for about one or two days. And now he received information from Liaodong that even if he had sent a pigeon from Liaodong City and passed through Yuguan, Youzhou, Luoyang and other stations, it would have been at least a day. Isn't it that Li Jing ran all the way to Liaodong City and then took down Liaodong City like that, without delaying it at all?

Yi Feng really wants to know how Li Jing did it now.

In history, both kings, Yang Guang and Li Shimin, were blocked under that city and could not make any progress.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, two joys are coming." Wang Hai smiled like a chrysanthemum.

Yi Feng couldn't help laughing. It was indeed a double happiness. The previous half day, he was still worried about the current situation. The war in western Liaoning was in the possibility of out of control, and the Turks attacked Tuyuhun, so he did not give Yi Feng any time to breathe and rest. But half a day later, the queen gave birth to a fat boy in advance, and the empire had successors. Although Li Jing, a lunatic, made Yi Feng hate him, now he made Yi Feng love him. His adventure was successful.

After carefully reading the good news, Yi Feng had a clearer understanding of Li Jing's adventure. Li Jing was crazy, and it was unimaginable. Just as Yi Feng was so angry that he heard Li Jing's advance, the Goguryeo people could not have expected that Li Jing would suddenly run around the east of Liucheng after the great victory in Bailang City. What they didn't expect was that Li Jing, a madman, not only went around behind them, but also went crazy again, divided his troops and rode for 400 miles, went deep into the enemy's back, and rushed directly to Liaodong City.

The defenders of Liaodong City also unexpectedly. Li Jing used the Goguryeo military robe flag obtained by Bailang City and some Goguryeo prisoners to easily seize the floating bridge left by crossing the Gaoyuan River on the Liaohe River, and then quickly killed the city of Liaodong. He used the same trick again and once again disguised himself as the Goguryeo army, pretending to be the troops transferred back from Yingzhou, and escorting a large number of Han prisoners. The defenders of Liaodong City could not have imagined that the Sui army was actually escorting some Goguryeo prisoners.

The city gate opened, Li Jing entered the city, and then there was nothing.

The Sui army broke into the city successfully captured the city gate, and then the eight thousand old and weak left behind became Li Jing's prisoners. Li Jing almost took the Liaodong city without bloodshed. The entire city was not damaged at all, and even the tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city did not run away. The hundreds of thousands of stones of food and grass and countless equipment stockpiled in the Liaodong city fell into Li Jing's hands intact.

Now, Li Jing led 30,000 light cavalry to successfully capture and occupy the Liaodong City of the East Gate of Goguryeo.

Yi Feng sighed long, Li Jing is really a lunatic, but this crazy adventure was successful. This success is extremely important for Yi Feng and the entire Sui Dynasty.

"Transfer to the Privy Council immediately!" Yi Feng had no choice but to take care of the newly born queen and the newly born eldest son, and unexpectedly took over the Liaodong City. Then the previous military deployment in western Liaoning would have been readjusted. (To be continued...)
