I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

Liu Tan recalled the situation of the elite group in the tent, and felt that everyone in the elite group seemed to have shadows.

At this time, not only him, but even the other generals in the tent were recalling this incident.

Of course, this can't stop them from thinking about it, thinking that the soul of the elite group is still insisting on completing the task.

At this time, some people were already moved to the point of red eyes by the plot they imagined.

Regardless of whether the members of the elite group are alive or not, anyway, Zuo Guhou has been verified by many people just now, and they are definitely alive.

Liu Tan could only cough lightly and said, "Let them come back."

Everyone knows who Liu Tan is talking about, and the guards standing at the door suddenly went down nervously - they all thought that the elite group just now was really not human, and now they have to expose it, in case the other party becomes aggressive... …

No, no, no, those are comrades-in-arms, comrades who fought side by side with them, they will definitely not harm them.

The guards beat the drums, and before the captain left, he mustered up his courage and said to them, "Your Highness, please let me go first."

The lieutenant turned to look at them wonderingly and asked, "Your Highness really said that?"

If he hadn't known that this guard had been guarding outside His Royal Highness's middle tent just now, he would have suspected that this person was lying at this very moment.

The guard looked behind them from time to time, heaved a sigh of relief after finding that several people had shadows, then nodded and said, "Really."

The captain could only follow and go back with a puzzled look on his face.

When he went back, the messenger soldier who had just come over with the breath of blood and fire had just wiped away his tears, and when he heard the footsteps, he subconsciously turned his head, and when he saw the person coming, he suddenly looked terrified: "You, you... ...you...why are you here?"

Seeing the other party like this, the school lieutenant also thumped in his heart, and his expression changed immediately.

The change in his expression was so obvious that the hearts of everyone else in the room thumped.

Liu Tan said it silently in his heart: prosperity, democracy, civilization...

Then when everyone panicked, he said: "There may be a misunderstanding here, you... yes, it's you, first tell me why you think the elite regiment has been wiped out?"

The captain's eyes widened immediately after hearing this: "What is the whole army wiped out? Who is the whole army wiped out?"

The messenger soldier seemed a bit unbearable, but he still closed his eyes and said with a tragic expression: "Brothers, everyone knows that you are reluctant, but...you can go if you have to. We have already captured Shanggu City, so you can go at ease." .”

The captain gasped again: "What? Shanggu City has been shot down?"

Liu Tan felt that he seemed to have figured out something, so he couldn't help knocking on the case and said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense, just say whatever you want, how did you know they were wiped out?"

The messenger soldier bowed his head and said: "We waited in the tunnel for a long time but we didn't hear the signal. At that time, it is reasonable to say that the elite regiment should have entered the Sheriff's Mansion. We sent people to walk a little distance there. , and found that the Sheriff's Mansion was in chaos, shouting and killing everywhere, but I didn't see a single robe..."

In this case, there is only one possibility, and that is that their comrades have either been captured or died.

However, before they came out, each of them was given a poison, because they were worried that they would be tortured inhumanely after being captured by the Huns, and this was done to make them feel better.

The corner of Liu Tan's mouth twitched: "This is a misunderstanding, you can tell it yourself."

The captain was also very embarrassed, but luckily he said after explaining the matter: "After we captured Zuo Gudu alive, we were worried that the explosion would attract the Huns stationed outside, so we had no choice but to take people to evacuate first. ...I was about to go back to give you a signal. Hey, no, you have already taken Shanggu County, so if you calculate it this way, you actually did it before the deadline."

After hearing his explanation, the messenger soldier also looked confused: "So... you captured Zuo Gudu alive so... came back first?"

The captain took a sneak peek at the others, and found that no one thought there was anything wrong with this matter.

Originally, if explosives were put in the situation at that time, the Hun soldiers outside would definitely be attracted quickly, and even if the county guard's mansion was in chaos at that time, without the order of Zuo Guduhou, the soldiers outside might not be so fast react to.

If the elite regiment had chosen to send out the signal at that time, it would probably have to face the end of killing Zuo Guduhou.

The value of the living Zuoguduhou and the dead Zuoguduhou is different. Those who are captured alive can be sent to Chang'an for His Majesty to sacrifice to the Taimiao!

Liu Tan was slightly relieved. Fortunately, he didn't have any stupid people under his command. This was a reason that everyone could accept.

The messenger was stunned at this moment, never expecting this possibility, he said with some embarrassment: "This... the scouts sent out at that time didn't find any trace of you, so they thought you had... everyone didn't wait any longer. The signal sounds, let’s do it directly.”

Not only that, the news of the annihilation of the elite regiment also inspired everyone's potential. At that time, they were not only thinking about occupying Shanggu County, but also avenging their comrades.

Later, after they broke into the county guard's mansion, they found that Zuoguduhou was missing, and some important people inside died. Although the bodies of the elite group were still not found, everyone agreed that the elite group was to give them a chance to kill Zuoguduhou resulting in annihilation of the entire army.

So their actions were extremely smooth.

After this series of explanations, not to mention Liu Tan, even the other generals were overwhelmed by the coquettish operations of these people.

Liu Tanxin was very tired, holding on to the desk and adjusting his mood.

This night was full of ups and downs, which made even him a little unbearable.

He waved his hand and said: "Okay, you all go down to rest first, send someone to inform the people in the city, clean up the battlefield by the way, and then prepare to return to Jicheng."

Of course I am happy to take down Shanggu County, which shows that contact and communication with Yan State can be resumed.

But before that, he had to hurry up and write memorials and letters to Liu Che to write good news, and by the way, send someone to send Zuo Guduhou to Chang'an to make his father happy.

After all, he is a general of the Huns. Zuo Guduhou is under the Zuoxian King of the Huns, that is to say, he is under the crown prince, and he is definitely considered a high-level leader in the Huns. His status is basically similar to that of Li Xi.

The Xiongnu directly sent him out this time, and it seems that the Yan State is bound to win.

It's a pity... this guy was caught in his sleep just after taking down Shanggu County, without even his clothes on.

Liu Tan must have written the memorial in accordance with the formal format, but this is probably the first time he wrote the memorial and it was extremely painful.

Although he also had headaches before, what he had a headache at that time was how to write the whole memorial more gorgeously, lest people see that he was somewhat out of tune with this world-some things are best learned at a certain age, literature This kind of quality needs to be cultivated from an early age.

Liu Tan has a high degree of education, and his literary literacy is still biased towards future generations even after so many years. In addition, he has little time to hone his literary literacy after passing through, so whenever he has to write memorials by himself, he will use his best Even if it is written according to Huo Guang's imitation, it will be dry in the end.

It's just that now, he is more relaxed, knowing that even if he writes dryly, Liu Che will not be unhappy, so he simply piles up the data directly.

But this time...he didn't even know how to pile up the data.

How do you tell his father about such a funny process?

After careful consideration, Liu Tan decided to be shameless, and focus on describing how they came up with this tactic, so as to give some inspiration to other generals.

Tell them that black powder isn't the only way to use it in the most crude and crude way.

Then write the victory report, which is very simple, just report the casualties.

This time their casualties were not particularly high, but there were some, and even the elite regiment suffered a certain degree of damage, which made Liu Tan's heart throb with pain when he read the battle report.

Not only feel sorry for the elite regiment, but also feel sorry for other soldiers.

These soldiers were carefully selected by Wei Buyi's subordinates at the beginning. Although they are not as good as the elite regiment, they are only lowered by two or three grades, and they still have an advantage over the other soldiers of the big man.

There are few people in the northern border country, so the soldiers can only be expensive and not expensive. Otherwise, if they are all sent to fight, who will they find to farm the land?

Because of this, Liu Tan would feel distressed for every casualty.

However, in the eyes of others, the casualty data in his victory report is also incredible.

There were few casualties on Li Xi's side, and everyone already knew what was going on—all those who suspected that Liu Tan lied about his military achievements were all dragged by Liu Ju to watch the power of black powder.

After these people came back, they were all in a trance, and even a few of them haven't been able to make a fuss until now--they were so scared.

On the one hand, the power of black powder is too great. In the eyes of many people, this is not something that ordinary people should master. Thinking of the king of the north who made the black powder, many people are worried that the king of the north will not hate them, right?

Conscience of heaven and earth, they are really not targeting the King of the Northern Territory, the main reason is that the number of casualties is too low, they can't help but suspect that several of them are censors, censors... aren't they doing this kind of thing.

But in fact, Liu Tan didn't have any intention of holding grudges. If he could really make everyone worship him in the court, he must be a hero of the world. Such people usually have already relied on iron and blood to make everyone dare not speak their minds. Accompanied by this situation It must be a bloody dark age.

Even Liu Che couldn't make everyone have no doubts, but there were few doubts. How could Liu Tan have this ability?

If he could really do this, he reckoned that he could choose a place for himself to bury himself—although it was hard to say whether Liu Che would leave him a whole body by then.

Liu Tan's new tactics did spark discussions in court, and many generals began to put aside their fear of black powder and began to think about whether they could do the same in sieges in the future.

But what excites them the most is not this matter, but the impending deportation of the Hun Zuogu Duhou to Beijing.
