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

Chapter 343 [2 More] 343

Huo Shou looked up at Liu Tan and then at the bow and arrow in his hand. He couldn't turn his mind for a while. He was waiting for His Royal Highness the King of the Northern Realm to show his mighty power and shoot through Yang directly to kill the leader of the opponent under the arrow. , Why did the Huns run away like this?

He didn't understand, but because Liu Tan had been walking with his brothers on shoulders just now, so he didn't know where to throw his strange fear, and he was stimulated by the big scene, so he asked directly: "How did the Huns go?"

Liu Tan turned to look at him and asked, "Do you know what happened before Wushilu went south?"

Huo Shou nodded vigorously: "I, I, I... I have listened to it many times!"

Liu Tan smiled slightly: "Yes, you've heard it many times, so the Huns should have spread it too. I'll give it a try and see if they recognize me. I didn't expect them to recognize me."

Huo Shou was stunned. He looked at the still burning battlefield and then at the city wall. For a moment, he couldn't believe it was so far away. The other party could see the King of the North clearly?

Looking at his expression, Liu Tan knew what he was thinking. He smiled and turned around and asked, "Did anyone hear what the Huns were shouting just now?"

At this time, Li Buyan walked up from below with a tired face and said, "They shouted 'The King of the North is here'."

Huo Shou was puzzled: "How did they recognize it?"

Liu Tan threw the bow and arrow in his hand back to the guard, pointed to the sight on it and said, "Now only I and my elite group have such bows and arrows in the whole world, so they will naturally know that it is me when they see this."

Huo Shou stared at the bow and couldn't move his eyes, with infinite yearning in his eyes: "Is Your Highness the Wushilu substitute who was shot with this bow?"

Liu Tan: ...

If you say that, we won't be able to continue the conversation today. They all know what happened to the death of Wu Shilu's substitute.

He even heard Huo Guang who was next to him laugh very lightly, Liu Tan had no choice but to avoid the seriousness: "It's just a stand-in, so what they recognize is not my appearance but these things, this is called a soldier who surrenders without fighting, Do you understand?"

Huo Shou nodded half-understood, Liu Tan continued to hold his shoulders as he walked under the city wall and said, "So sometimes you don't necessarily need to go to the battlefield if you want to retreat from the enemy."

But Huo Shou said suddenly: "But if His Highness hadn't chased Wushilu away, they wouldn't be afraid of His Highness."

Liu Tan... felt as if he heard Huo Guang's laughter again.

He turned his head and glanced at Huo Guang who was following behind, and found that the other party really had a smile of "God forgive me".

Huo Guang was really refreshed at this moment. His nephew grew up and became more disobedient. His Royal Highness, the King of the Northern Territory...has never been obedient. It's good for these two brats to get together, it's refreshing!

Huo Guang has already started to think about whether to throw Huo Shou to Liu Tan's side to nurture him.

Liu Tan: Oh, man.

He turned his head and asked Li Buyan: "Has the battlefield started to be cleaned?"

Li Buyan immediately said: "I have already sent someone there."

Liu Tan looked down at Huo Shou and said: "People who go to the battlefield for the first time will always have various discomforts. No one else has the opportunity to exercise. You are lucky. Although you can catch up today, you can't lead soldiers Fighting a war, but I can take you to experience the atmosphere of the scene, so that you don’t get scared and pee your pants when you actually go to the battlefield.”

At Huo Shou's age, he felt that the boss was his second child, so he immediately said loudly: "I'm not afraid!"

Liu Tan patted him on the shoulder appreciatively: "Good job, come, I'll go with you!"

Huo Guang always felt that there was something wrong, but there was nothing wrong with Liu Tan's words. Huo Shou was so obsessed with going to the battlefield, I am afraid that he would not be able to manage it when he grew up. It is good to get acquainted with him in advance.

But he was still worried, so he simply followed Liu Tan and the others rode to the battlefield outside.

Li Buti brought people to protect Liu Tan, for fear that a few more Huns would come and attack him.

As he got closer to the battlefield, Huo Shou could feel the smell of burning coal and blood lingering in his nose.

Because those big fireballs have already burned almost at this time, although there are still some embers, but they can just happen to illuminate the surroundings, and it will even feel warm to walk in such a place in winter.

However, at this time Huo Shou didn't feel warm at all, he just felt chills all over his body, and he couldn't recover from the scene in front of him.

Blood was flowing on the ground, human stumps were everywhere, and there were some injured people who were unable to move and fell to the ground moaning in pain.

Huo Guang knew something was wrong when he saw Huo Shou's expression. Such a scene was too cruel for a teenager.

He drove his horse forward and stretched out his hand to cover Huo Shou's eyes and take him away, but just as he stretched out his hand, he felt a tightness in his wrist, and when he looked down, he found a slender white hand tightly clutching his wrist.

Huo Guang turned his head to look and found that Liu Tan was beside him at this time. The face that was always smiling on weekdays looked very serious at this moment, but under the light of the flickering fire, there was a hint of coldness.

"Let him watch." At this time, Liu Tan looked very unkind: "If you can accept it, you can go to the battlefield, but you can't... Will someone help him cover his eyes and comfort him when he goes to the battlefield?"

Huo Guang pursed his lips, looking at Liu Tan's face that gradually showed the edges and corners of an adult man, his thoughts suddenly drifted back to those days.

When he followed Liu Tan to the Western Regions, that seemed to be Liu Tan's first contact with war.

How old was he at that time?fifteen?No, it was 14 years old, only two years older than the current Huo Shou.

Back then, Liu Tan didn't have any elders who could accompany him and protect him. At that time...was he as afraid as Huo Shou?

But from the beginning to the end, he never saw fear and panic on Liu Tan's face, as if those were insignificant.

Just now he thought that Liu Tan just wanted to teach Huo Shou a lesson, but now that he thinks about it... Could it be that he had experienced this himself back then, so he wanted Huo Shou to accept it more smoothly?

After Liu Tan stopped Huo Guang, he thought that the other party would refute him angrily, but he didn't expect that Huo Guang just looked at him in a daze and didn't know what to think.

This time it was Liu Tan's turn to feel a little uneasy. He slowly let go of his hand, shook his hand in front of Huo Guang and said, "What are you thinking? I'm going back."

Huo Guang came back to his senses, fixedly looked at Liu Tan and said, "Okay!"

On the way back, Huo Shou didn't make a fuss about going to the battlefield anymore, and his whole body was lost, as if he had lost his soul.

When he was about to return to the surrendered city, Huo Shou seemed to slow down a bit, and he turned his head and asked in a deep voice that did not belong to his age: "Your Highness, you scared them away this time, what if they don't run away next time?" ?”
