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

Liu Che was in court when he received the letter from Liu Tan. Today is the small court meeting, basically all of them are his own people, and those who are more inclined to the king of the north are also relatively neutral. The so-called neutrality means that the king of the north has done good deeds and made great contributions. They are not stingy with praise, and if the king of the north did something wrong, they will not give up pursuing it.

Liu Che dotes on his son, but it's not to the point where everything my son says is right.

There is still a need for such upright people above the court.

But also because of this, he didn't avoid everyone, he just took the memorial and asked the messenger with a smile before he opened it: "Win the battle again?"

The messenger beamed and said, "Your Majesty, the King of the Northern Territory and the King of Wusun have captured You Guduhou alive!"

Liu Che couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly when he heard this: "What?"

Not only him, even others couldn't help looking at the messenger.

Fortunately, the courier has a better bearing capacity. I think back when he first delivered a letter to Beijing, he saw the emperor and the prince stuttering and couldn't even speak well. Now...he has become numb after seeing too much. So many people looked at him and said very calmly: "You Guduhou's entire army has been wiped out. Our army has never released a single person. This battle is a great victory!"

After he finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but burst into joy, especially Liu Che. Although he kept restraining himself from getting too excited, his smile still couldn't stop expanding.

Probably because he was too happy, he directly threw the memorial to Prince Liu Ju for him to read, while he opened the letter Liu Tan wrote to him.

Although Liu Tan's letter and memorials both said the same thing, their styles were different. It was rare for Liu Che to be able to focus on two things at once, reading the letter while listening to his eldest son read the memorial.

The smile on Liu Che's face couldn't help deepening when he heard Liu Ju read the four words: "The fate of the country is up to me."

Well, at first glance, this memorial was not written by his son. After thinking about it, the writing style is a bit like Lu Xuan.

He was even happier when he thought that Lu Xuan had admitted that the fate of the country was in the big man.

Not only him, but even the other people present were very excited. If Liu Tan could describe them like this, it would probably be a shot in the arm.

In the past, everyone had three-point expectations and seven-point normality about the matter of fighting the Huns. The expectation was because the king of the northern border never lost when facing the Huns. I have suffered a lot.

So no one dared to say that they would definitely win this time.

It is not so easy to build confidence. If there is no such accident, Liu Tan may still need to fight a few more victories to convince everyone that their current strength is much stronger than the Xiongnu.

But when it comes to metaphysics, when they think that even the heavens are on their side, everyone suddenly has supreme confidence.

That's right, Prime Minister Sang Hongyang thought, he should have thought that His Royal Highness the King of the North is a god, although some people say he is Qian Tong, and some people say that he is the Lord Greedy Wolf, but no matter what, the gods in the sky It must be to help "my own people", so I will definitely stand on the side of their Northern King.

His thinking is basically the same as that of some other ministers.

Sang Hongyang waited for Crown Prince Liu Ju to finish reading the memorandum, then he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, since the Marquis of the Hun Yougu has been escorted to Beijing, do you want to sacrifice to the Taimiao again?"

Liu Che tried his best to keep the smile on his face reserved: "I'm afraid that my ancestors will find me annoying if I sacrifice twice in such a short period of time."

Other ministers:  …

This is showing off, right?Well, it must be showing off.

Not to mention, some people are really a bit sour. The King of the Northern Realm is only in his early twenties this year. According to the average age of a big man, he is not young. Basically, they are all struggling for qualifications. If they have a son like the King of the North, why worry about it?

Liu Tan not only wrote a letter to Liu Che this time, but also sent him some special products from the Huns - these were basically obtained after he met some nomadic tribal captives later, and some things were not particularly valuable. He thinks the style is good and the taste is good, so he sends it.

Liu Che generously gave everyone a little bit, and complained as he gave it back: "This kid is the same. I am afraid that his conditions are not very good when he is out on the expedition, and he is still sending things to me."

Ministers:  …

What if it gets more sour?As long as their son cares about how much they eat at the dinner table, they will be moved.

Contrast that with the King of the Northern Realm, thinking about getting something delicious and fun for his father, even if he went on an expedition, he would try his best to deliver it.

When Liu Che was showing off, he started to discuss business. They combined Li Xi and Liu to talk about the current situation of the two of them. Sang Hongyang looked at the map and couldn't help but asked boldly: "Your Majesty, what do you say... Is the target Dragon City?"

Liu Che glanced at the map, and found that their marching route was indeed very clear, and they were heading for Dragon City.

He smiled slightly and said, "Tan'er... the King of the Northern Realm has had this idea for a long time, and this time is probably just a test, so you don't have to have too much expectations."

Although he was as eager as the people below to hope that Liu Tan could fight to Longcheng and drive the Huns farther away, but he also felt sorry for his son and didn't want to put so much pressure on him.

In case they were preparing here, it might be reported that the king of the northern border wanted to attack Dragon City. If the situation did not allow it, Liu Tan would have to bite the bullet if he did not fight, or he would have no way to explain it.

Liu Che thought about Zhou Xiang, and Sang Hongyang over there also thought a lot. He coughed lightly and said, "His Royal Highness the King of the Northern Territory did not report the consumption of food and grass this time. It is just that the army is dispatched, so the consumption of food and grass must be a lot. Therefore, will we be able to attack Dragon City by then?" , It all depends on the food and grass.”

He was talking to Liu first. If it was really inappropriate to fight to Longcheng, then it would be because their food supply was not enough, not the problem of the King of the North.

Hey, it's not that he insists on helping the King of the Northern Territory, but who made him have a son there?That is the most outstanding of all his sons, and it seems that he can be promoted very quickly by following the king of the north, so as long as the king of the north does not make mistakes, he will help.

Of course, this is also based on the fact that both the emperor and the crown prince need him to help the king of the north, but if there is any conflict between the king of the north and the crown prince, he will not help so clearly.

Sure enough, both the emperor and the crown prince gave him a good look at you, and then everyone started discussing how to get the food and how to make the army stick to Longcheng.

And just as they were discussing this, Liu Tan and Li Xi had already met at Yanran Mountain.

After the defeat of Youguduhou, Liu Tan said that the front of them was like no man's land, um, in fact, it was almost like no one. This area is mostly Gobi and desert. If they didn't have a compass, they might not be able to go. go out.

And in the process, Liu Tan also saw how crazy Li Ling was. Even if he only chose two directions, he could still choose the wrong one. That's amazing!

Compared with him, Liu Tan seemed much more reliable.

Fortunately, they brought Lu Xuan with them. Lu Xuan is not very familiar with this terrain, but he is familiar with the desert, the Gobi, the climate and other things here, which saved the army many detours.

As for Li Xi, he obviously has fewer moths than Liu Tan, but he is familiar with the route he took when he followed the general Wei Qing. Didn't expect to come again.

After meeting Li Xi, Liu Tan asked, "What's the situation with the Huns now?"

Li Xi said solemnly, "King Zuo Tuqi was dispatched from Kuli Lake."

Liu Tan was startled: "Is there no one in the Huns? Even his son has been sent out from Xiaolihu?"
