    "Uncles, this medical alcohol has just been developed, and we don't know how effective it is yet. How about we give it a try today?" Li Min asked with a smile.  Although this wine is used for disinfection, it can actually be used for drinking. However, the alcohol content is extremely high. Even if it does not reach the concentration of medical alcohol in later generations, it is probably not much different.

    After hearing Li Min's words, Li Ji and Niu Jinda swallowed at the same time. Although alcohol is prohibited in the army, it is bitterly cold in Liaodong. It is naturally an extremely comfortable thing to have a drink of wine to warm up. And for several months  , they had not touched any alcohol, and they could hardly hold back their alcohol addiction. In addition, there was a legitimate reason to bring this wine into the army, so they were very excited.

    "Ahem~, since this wine can heal injuries, my stomach and intestines have been aching a bit these past few days. I guess an old injury from more than ten years ago happened, so I can use this or something By the way, medical alcohol to treat it." Niu Jinda took the lead.  Unable to bear it anymore, he rubbed his hands and said with a smile on his face.

    After hearing this, Li Min had a dark look on his face, thinking that even if you were making up a normal excuse, what kind of injury could hurt the stomach?  And it¡¯s still an old injury from more than ten years ago. It¡¯s alcohol, not an elixir.

    When Li Ji saw that his old comrades had agreed, he couldn't object, and from the bottom of his heart, he was very greedy, so he immediately agreed: "That's fine, as the commander of an army, we naturally have to replace the lieutenants of the army.  We need to be careful, after all, the lives of countless soldiers are at stake."

    Hearing that Li Ji agreed, Li Min didn't want to laugh at his prudery. He found a few tea bowls and filled the three of them with a cup.  However, Li Min solemnly warned them that the alcohol content was too high and they must drink it slowly, otherwise it might cause stomach bleeding, which was no joke.

    After listening to Li Min's warning, both Li Ji and Niu Jinda took a careful sip and found that the wine was indeed what Li Min said.  It feels extremely strong when you drink it in your mouth, and it is not as fragrant as ordinary wine, so it can satisfy your cravings.  But in normal times, no one would like to drink this kind of wine.

    Have a sip of strong wine and a few bites of hot food.  In the bitter cold weather in Liaodong, it is a rare enjoyment.  Li Min took this opportunity to ask the two old generals for advice on the current battlefield situation, especially the situation in Anshi City opposite.

    Li Min learned from them that the current lord of Anshi City was named Yang Wanchun. He seemed to be a Han, but he had lived in Goguryeo for generations. He had long recognized his identity as a Goguryeo and had always regarded himself as a loyal minister.  The Yuan clan rebelled and wanted to kill King Rongliu, but he fled to Anshi City.  The Yuan family sent people to ask for it but failed, so they sent troops to attack, but unfortunately they failed and returned. Now King Rongliu is in Anshi City.

    At the same time, Li Min also learned that although Anshi City is not big.  There are only tens of thousands of residents in the city, but it is not easy to capture it. The north and west sides are blocked by hills, which is not conducive to siege. Although the southeastern sides are flat, the city walls are extremely tall and solid.  In addition, Yang Wanchun has a very high prestige in the city.  Mobilizing the entire city to defend the city together, plus an elite city defense force of about 10,000 people, it can be said that even a hundred thousand troops may not be able to attack the city.  Years ago, Li Ji sent people to test the city several times, but they were disgraced. In addition, the weather was not suitable for attacking the city, so he gave up.

    Although Anshi City is a tough one, Li Ji was full of confidence when he talked about attacking the city. He seemed to be sure of taking Anshi City. Moreover, he also said just now that he had prepared a plan for Anshi City.  During the dinner, although Li Min asked him many questions, Li Ji always smiled and said nothing, acting as if he was quite mysterious.

    After asking about the war, Li Min asked Niu Jinda some personal matters, such as how Su Dingfang and the others are doing now, and have they seen that bastard Li Yong?

    Su Dingfang and the others are now an army. In addition to the 300 palace guards, Niu Jinda also gave them 1,300 soldiers, making up 2,000 people. They are led by Su Dingfang and are currently stationed outside the south gate of Anshi City.  As for Li Yong, Niu Jinda also helped Li Min look for him, but he couldn't find him.

    In fact, Li Min had received a letter from Niu Jinda before and knew that Li Yong had not come to see him. Based on his guess, Li Yong probably went to see Li Daozong, but Li Daozong led his troops to greet Li Shimin a few days ago and was not here at all.  I have no choice but to give up.

    After drinking the wine, the next step was to adapt to the life in the military camp. Li Min complained endlessly about this, but that was all. What annoyed him the most was that he had to go to Li Ji's place every day to order mao. The so-called dian mao,  In fact, at seven o'clock in the morning, you go to the commander's tent for a roll call. If you are not late, you will be beheaded with a military stick or more serious.

    As a lazy person who sleeps until he wakes up naturally every day, suddenly having to get up early every day is even more uncomfortable than killing him. However, Li Min has no choice, because the next day after drinking Jie Feng Wine, Li Min was killed.  Li Ji was appointed as a medical officer. This name was given by Li Min himself.  And selected nearly a thousand soldiers from the army, and it turned out that there were doctors accompanying the army, so they were all given to Li Min for training, to teach the new wound treatment methods he mentioned, and to be responsible for the future rescue work of the wounded.

    This medical officer, like the quartermaster, is a second-line personnel and does not need to go to the battlefield. This is in line with Li Min's wishes. However, since he serves in the army, he is naturally subject to military law, so Li Min has to communicate with other generals.  Likewise, you have to go to the commander's tent to answer questions morning and evening, and you cannot go out without permission without a military order.  Fortunately, this life only lasted three days, because Li Shimin finally came.

    In the cold wind, almost everyone, led by Li Ji and Niu Jinda, except the generals on duty, came to this ancient road leading to western Liaoning, waiting for His Majesty the Tang Dynasty to arrive.  Li Min was also wearing armor, riding on a horse and mixed with a group of generals. Because he was too bored waiting, he was chatting and spanking with a young general next to him.

    "Cousin, since there are so many Hu people in Yingzhou and they cause trouble from time to time, you might as well cooperate with me. You are responsible for sending people to arrest all the disobedient Hu people in Yingzhou, and then I will buy them and send them to the coal mines.  As a slave, this will not only eliminate the hidden dangers there, but also bring you a lot of income, what do you think?" Li Min said with a smile on his face.

    The one who could make him call him cousin was naturally Zhang Jian, the governor of Yingzhou who had made great achievements at the beginning of the war. Zhang Jian's mother was Li Yuan's adopted daughter, so Li Min and he were naturally considered cousins.  The two of them knew each other as soon as Li Min came to the military camp, and they were both sons of dandies, so they naturally had many topics in common. Just now Zhang Jian complained to Li Min, saying that the Hu people in Yingzhou were difficult to control. This time he  Therefore, forcing Hu Min to send troops and placing them in front of the formation as cannon fodder was to consume Hu Min's strength.

    Hearing Li Min's unscrupulous suggestion, Zhang Jian was also very moved. That hellish place in Yingzhou is no better than Guanzhong. Life in the military camp is miserable. If there is this way to make money, it can be improved.  Life in the military camp.  However, he also had his own concerns, and after thinking for a while he said: "Liu Lang, although the Hu people like to make trouble, in name they are still the people of my Yingzhou. If I, as the governor, would send troops to kidnap the children in the territory as slaves,  , will you let me take a copy of it?"

    "Cousin, you misunderstood. I didn't let you blatantly send troops to kidnap people. As long as your soldiers take off their uniforms, no one will know whether they are soldiers or civilians. If you are still not at ease, just take the kidnappers.  Let go of the matter, there are not many others in Dengzhou City, but there are many slave catching teams. These people are not only strong, but also all have their own backgrounds in Chang'an. There are those big guys in Chang'an City.  Stay calm, who dares to look for trouble with you without opening your eyes?" Li Min continued to say seductively with a smile.

    "Okay, let's do it. I've been disgusted with those barbarians for a long time. If it weren't for the law, I really want to lead the troops and slaughter them all!" Zhang Jian also has a cheerful temperament, and he's early.  Knowing Li Min's character and power, and having His Highness the King of Qi to protect him, what else is there to worry about?

    "Huh? Liulang, it seems that it's not working yet?" But as soon as Zhang Jian finished speaking, he immediately thought of another thing, so he hurriedly said, "Brother, I have made some achievements this time. According to the rumors I heard,  It seems that the imperial court is going to reward me, so I will probably be transferred out of that hellish place in Yingzhou, right?"

    Since Zhang Jian's father was able to obtain Li Yuan's adopted daughter, he was certainly not an ordinary person. The Zhang family also had some connections in the court and could hear rumors about some things, so Zhang Jian said this.

    "Hey, cousin, you may not know this." Li Min had naturally thought of this problem a long time ago, and he naturally had his own reasons for wooing Zhang Jian so much, so he said with a smile, "  My younger brother has received definite news from the court. Once Goguryeo is destroyed, the territory will be merged into the Tang Dynasty. Except for Liaodong, the other Goguryeo territories will be unified and placed under the newly established Andong Protectorate. And cousin, you will be the protector.  The first Protector of the Mansion!"

    "What? Thisis this true?" Zhang Jian suddenly heard the good news and shouted loudly in shock, causing the surrounding generals to look over.  Li Min did not expect such a big reaction from Zhang Jian. He hurriedly smiled and cupped his hands to the general who came over. The generals also knew Li Min and knew that this was His Highness King Qi, so seeing that the other party was so polite, it was natural that he was  Those who were flattered all returned the favor, and at the same time they also had a good impression of Li Min in their hearts.

    "Liu Lang, please tell me quickly, is this true?" Zhang Jianke ignored the eyes of the people around him and grabbed Li Min's arm tightly, asking anxiously.  Although there is only one word difference between Duhu and Dudu, the meanings contained in them are vastly different. The Dudu can only control the military power of a state at most, but the Duhu is completely different. Whether it is military or civil affairs, the Duhu has control over everything.  , the power is so great that it makes people jealous just thinking about it.  And the reason why Zhang Jian was so excited naturally had some hidden secrets.
