After throwing Li Guangli to Jiang Chong to clean up, Liu Tan led the team and set off quietly one night.

Originally, he didn't have to choose the night, but Li Guangli's arrival basically disrupted the overall plan. He had to advance a period of time to let everyone eat and warm before leaving.

Liu Tan rode on the horse and looked at Huo Guang standing below with a smile and said, "Captain, go back, it's cold, don't freeze."

In fact, it wasn't very cold at this time, but Huo Guang still felt that there was no warmth all over his body. He held the rein of the little white horse and wanted Liu Tan to stay.

He had many reasons, for example, Liu Tan was not good at riding, Liu Tan had never been on a battlefield, Liu Tan... Liu Tan didn't even have a piece of armor.

However, he knew that these were not reasons. A large army was not considered a rapid march, so it didn't matter that Liu Tan's riding skills were not good, not to mention that he still had a car.

Huo Guang was just worried. Normally he could speak eloquently, but now he couldn't say anything. Finally, he had to say in a low voice: "Your Highness, take care, and I will wait for Your Highness to return in triumph."

Liu Tan flicked his horsewhip, looked up at the already decent city wall, turned his horse's head and said, "Let's go!"

Liu Tan's little white horse is like the most dazzling star in the army. After Huo Guang led his men to stand in place to see him off, he turned around and climbed up the city wall again. He bowed his head and let out a sigh of relief until he could no longer see Liu Tan's figure. , Turning his head, it was the calm and composed Captain Huo again.

Huo Guang raised his hand and said, "Let's all go back, what should we do, don't leak the news, if I catch you..."

Huo Guang's brows turned cold, and everyone around him shivered, and they all lowered their heads in response.

Liu Tan thinks that Huo Guang is a gentleman as gentle as jade, but the people below only think he is scary.

At this moment, Liu Tan, who was riding on horseback, was restraining his urge to turn back. This feeling... seemed to be a little heavier than when he sent his relatives away from Chang'an.

Listening to the horseshoes and soldiers' footsteps behind him, he thought to himself that he didn't know how many people would come back from this battle.

For a moment, he wondered if he had done something wrong, should he bring the army back?Can he really afford so many lives?

Just when he was shaken, Li Buyan and Wei Buyi rode forward, half a step behind Liu Tan, and Wei Buyi whispered, "Your Highness, why don't you get in the car?"

Liu Tan glanced at him sideways: "Although my riding skills are not good, I can still handle it now."

Li Buyan also lowered his voice and said: "Your Highness, don't misunderstand, we didn't mean that, the main reason is that you don't even have any armor on you, we are worried..."

Liu Tan shook his head: "What is there to worry about? Our current location is very remote, not to mention that we have brought most of our troops out. If we encounter a situation, we will just warm up."

Originally, Huo Guang really wanted to make a battle armor for Liu Tan, but a battle armor cost a lot of energy and money these years. Liu Tan is not short of money, but he is short of time. The most important thing is the naked eye. It can be seen that even if this armor is produced in a hurry, he will only wear it once at most.

In addition, this time he should only sit in the middle of the tent, let everyone feel confident, and do nothing else, the enemy will not see him at all, if he is in danger even in the middle of the tent, then it means that they have failed miserably, At that time, it is estimated that even if you are wearing a battle armor, you will not be able to come back alive.

Of course, the most important reason is that the battle armor is heavy. Huo Guang will definitely use enough material to ensure his safety. As a result, he can barely stand up wearing the battle armor at most. Does he want to lose face?

What?Why are soldiers okay?Nonsense, soldiers are wearing leather armor!

Liu Tan insisted on neither wearing armor nor riding in a car, which made Wei Buyi and Li Buyan tense, guarding him all the time, trying their best to protect Liu Tan in case of danger.

Fortunately, the march was really smooth. Li Buyan and Wei Buyi heaved a sigh of relief after arriving at the camp site that had been surveyed and set up according to the original plan.

It happened to be noon when they arrived, and Liu Tan said, "Let everyone rest, and the troops will be dispatched at midnight, and the two of you should also go and recharge your spirits."

Li Buyan and Wei Buyi didn't refuse, they really needed to recharge their batteries.

Because they are worried that the smoke from cooking will be discovered by the robbery, everyone basically eats fried noodles. This is a simple thing, as long as hot water is enough. They have already boiled a lot of water in the last station, and they use quilts to keep them warm. In addition, the weather is not cold, and the water is still warm when we get here, which is not bad.

In broad daylight, the military camp was completely quiet, but Liu Tan couldn't sleep in this quietness. He looked at the sand table over and over again, trying to find out if there were any flaws.

But in fact, if he could see it, he wouldn't stay in the middle tent.

This simmering lasted till the end of the day, and before the troops were dispatched, the army began to prepare quickly, with the aim of keeping people from talking and making noise.

Because it was a rush, in order not to let the other party see it, the first batch of troops were all infantry, followed by light cavalry, heavy cavalry and cloud chariots.

The first batch of infantrymen who dispatched all had a unique skill-the use of flying hooks was superb.

This group of infantry is to quickly climb the city wall, and strive to kill all the guards on the city wall when the opponent is least prepared, do not give the opponent's archers time to react, and minimize the damage caused by the archers to their own side. If there is a chance, they will go city ​​gate.

It can be predicted that this group of people must have the highest casualties. Liu Tan has inquired before, but for these people who are used for sneak attacks, it is not bad to return one out of ten, and sometimes the entire army will be wiped out.

The moment Liu Tan knew about it, he didn't want to use this method, but was suppressed by Huo Guang. In the end, he could only promise to take good care of these people's families. After this scene, if people can come back alive, and If the body is healthy, then he will give a reward. If the person is alive but disabled, he will take it under his command. If the person is dead, he will protect the family members of those people.

To be honest, these people are the only ones he can manage, because these people add up to only 100 people, and he can still support it. If it is extended to the entire army, even Liu Tan will feel pressured.

Originally, he thought that no one would be willing to die, but what he didn't expect was that after knowing the conditions, some soldiers almost fought with their colleagues in order to get this spot!

It was only later that Liu Tan found out that these people just wanted to give it a go. They had suffered so much at the border and even dreamed of going home to the Central Plains. Although this was a life-threatening job, what if they survived? Even if you die, you can find a good way out for your family.

Liu Tan was silent for a long time when he knew about it, and he didn’t say anything until the end. There is no way to solve the bitter cold at the border until later generations. This piece of land is too vast and the population is small, basically it can only be like this.

Before leaving for the expedition, Liu Tan looked at the soldiers standing there who were ready for the expedition, and felt that evil spirits rushed towards his face.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized that this was an army of hundreds of battles stationed at the border all the year round.

He took a deep breath, feeling the tension and solemnity before the start of the war, and said in a deep voice: "I have said what should be said before, and I won't stop talking nonsense, then I wish everyone... prosperous martial arts!"

After he finished speaking, the armed Li Buyan and Wei Buyi next to him made a start gesture, and at the same time bowed down to salute Liu Tan, then mounted their horses and turned around.

Liu Tan did not stand still like Huo Guang, he was afraid that he could not help but call everyone back.

Huo Guang couldn't stop him, but he could really stop these people.

Sitting in the middle tent, Miao Rui has changed the water at Liu Tan's hand several times from hot to cold.

Even the refreshments have been withdrawn twice because of the coldness, and finally Liu Tan simply said: "No more, I have no appetite."

Waiting may be more frightening than facing the battlefield. After all, human beings are good at making up brains. Liu Tan even started to estimate where everyone is going on the sand table.

In fact, how could he estimate it? He didn't even know the speed of travel. He didn't have any records on this these days, and he didn't have any experience. He didn't ask before setting off.

It's not going to work.

Liu Tan thought to himself, it really doesn't matter if you don't know it or not, if you manage it, it will be full of loopholes, and the military management is too loose and there are too many loopholes.

He was thinking wildly about future generations' military plans. Of course, he had never been a soldier, but he liked to pay attention to the military. If it didn't work, he could use military training as a reference.

Going back, we must reform.

No, no, no, you can't reform casually. Is the army something he can touch?I'm afraid something will happen if I manage too much.

Here, Liu Tan was thinking wildly, the little red flag representing his own soldiers had already been inserted into the building representing the robbery palace by him!

As soon as he plugged in here, he heard a shout from outside the tent: "Report, Your Highness, our army has already attacked the opponent's city wall!"

Liu Tan couldn't hold back his excitement and stood up. In the previous rehearsal, this section was actually the most difficult. As long as they can climb the city wall, at least they will succeed by [-]%!

Seeing that Liu Tan finally had a smile on his face, Miao Rui hurriedly said, "Again, check and report again!"

The messenger soldiers took the order to go, and just as Liu Tan was about to say something to Miao Rui, he heard someone shouting outside again: "Report!"

Liu Tan was a little surprised: "Did you open the city gate so soon?"

Just when he was puzzled, the messenger outside said in a hurry: "His Royal Highness, the scouts are here to report that there are a large number of unidentified cavalry in the northeast!"

northeast?

The smile on Liu Tan's face froze instantly: "Huns!"
