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

Chapter 222 [2 More] 222

Liu Tan was able to receive this news mainly because the army will pass through Shuofang, which means that the last supply station of the army is in Shuofang.

Huo Guang finally frowned again, looking at the account on the national treasury and said: "Now that a little money has been collected, the national treasury may be empty by now."

This was probably the first time that Huo Guang was unwilling to see Liu Che send troops out.

When I was in Chang'an before, no matter what angle I stood at, once I found the Huns invading, my first thought was to fight back.

If it was changed to the past, he felt that it was a bit late for the Xiongnu to go south and destroy the city until now.

But now he only hoped that the emperor could calm down and not be too impulsive.

But it was too late to say anything, Liu Che's edict had been issued, and all they could do was cooperate.

Liu Tan frowned and said, "That's not the point. Shuofang's granary has not been destroyed, and it is still possible to support a [-]-strong army with supplies. Moreover, he is cooperating with Captain Zuo. If he can kill Wushilu, the money will come out." out."

Huo Guang looked at Liu Tan and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then why is Your Highness still frowning?"

Liu Tan held his breath and said, "That's what I said, but do you think Zhao Ponu has this ability?"

Huo Guang was a little strange and said: "General Zhao has won many victories, why does Your Highness think that he is incompetent?"

Liu Tan said: "He has some skills, but he has not improved over the years. The Prime Minister thinks what would happen if he attacked Dawan without Xiao Kunmi's help?"

Huo Guang couldn't help his ears twitch when he heard the words Xiao Kunmi, and lowered his eyes and said, "Little Kunmi is certainly brave, but Your Highness doesn't have to..."

"Look for yourself." Liu Tan interrupted him directly, throwing out a document.

Huo Guang's face was slightly solemn, Liu Tan had always been patient and restrained towards him, even if Liu Tan didn't like what he said, he would wait for him to finish speaking before expressing his views.

Now even Shinobu couldn't bear to interrupt directly, it can be seen that this matter has touched his bottom line.

Huo Guang straightened his mind, picked up the document and glanced at it from beginning to end, and couldn't help being silent.

After Liu Tan confirmed that he had finished reading, he said: "The leader of the army is most afraid of being arrogant. If Zhao Puonu is not arrogant, how can he fight a battle to such an extent? At the beginning, Lu Xuan didn't think about fighting with him." He fought for the attack, but later it became clear that he was getting worse and worse, and Da Wan was able to spare his hands to trouble him, so he fought back. If Zhao Puonu really had meritorious service, how could his father not have given him the title in the war of destroying the country? Hou?"

Liu Tan said that he didn't take a breath after a lot of gas, and almost suffocated himself to death.

Huo Guang was taken aback when he saw how angry he was: "Your Highness, don't be angry, I just didn't expect him to fall so far."

Like many people, Huo Guang sees more in the end of the war than the result.

Moreover, Zhao Ponu is also reputable. In the second year of Yuanshou, Zhao Ponu was appointed as General Eagle Strike. Waiting for more than 3000 people, he was also named a Marquis in World War I.

His meritorious deeds are indeed not as dazzling as Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, and he served as General Xionghe in the sixth year of Yuanding but returned without success. This is the main reason why he is not well-known.

Later, he was also deposed because of the gold, but his military exploits are nothing to say.

Such a person could never have imagined that he would commit such a mistake when attacking Dawan.

Liu Tan drank his saliva and said: "This time he cooperates with Captain Zuo, not to mention seeking skin from a tiger. Now we all have a common enemy, so Captain Zuo is on good terms with us, but if he wins, he will definitely win." Will bite back, believe it or not?"

Huo Guang still believed Liu Tan's words, but he said helplessly, "Then what can we do?"

"What else can I do? Step up the construction of the city wall, and let go of everything else!" Liu Tan could almost hear the exclamation point in his words.

He was also very angry. Originally, he thought that it would be fine to build the city wall by the end of the year. In summer, even the northern border country will have more rainfall. It is not very friendly to construction, so it is best during this period of time. It is to let the common people do something else, and even the captives have already been asked to work in the mine.

These prisoners have been very honest recently, so honest that Liu Tan can't believe it, they don't make noise or make noise, they do whatever they ask them to do, and they eat whatever they give them.

The tribe that first surrendered was even more determined. It is said that the leader wanted to dedicate his most beautiful daughter to Liu Tan, but Huo Guang blocked it.

It is a last resort to let these people go there to work. Now many minerals need to be hoarded, on the one hand is clay.

With the extensive construction of Shuofang City, the naturally weathered clay is no longer enough, so it is necessary to artificially dig out the weathered clay.

Then there is the coal mine. Although it is not yet the middle of the year, the production of honeycomb coal will indeed start to increase, so as not to run out of time.

Before that, Princess Lichang had sent him a list with the number of reservations in advance.

After counting with his fingers, Liu Tan decided that even if he was worried about the captives, he must let them go to work. At worst, he would send more people to guard them. Be stricter and patrol day and night. He did not believe that he could let them go.

Finally, everything is on track, and everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief, and now we are here again.

In case Zhao Ponu fails and the Xiongnu fights over, there is no hope for the surrendered city, only they can resist the Xiongnu themselves.

Huo Guang could only do so when he thought about it, and said with some hesitation: "Your Highness, then...Xia Kao..."

After hearing this, Liu Tan's eyes went dark. He was about to start building the examination room recently. The examination room was also designed by Liu Tan. He secretly brought some private goods with him. He planned to build a more multifunctional building, and it will be used as a school palace in the future.

No matter how you look at it, education needs to be promoted. Even if you don't have the energy now, you should put it into the plan.

However, the construction of the school palace must be suspended now to work hard to build the city wall. The time is already tight, which means that it is very likely that the school palace will not be put into use by the original time.

Liu Tan said angrily: "The main thing is the city wall!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Tan was silent for a while and then asked, "How is the military preparation now?"

Huo Guang paused: "The armament... can barely support it."

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help persuading: "Your Highness, don't worry too much, Shuofang may not be in trouble again."

Liu Tan was about to die of suffocation, thinking how can I tell you that Zhao Puonu failed in history, he not only failed but was captured, he was not only captured himself but also captured with the whole army!

It was this guy who made the whole army surrender together!

Liu Tan waved his hands and said, "Be prepared, that's all."

Huo Guang didn't say anything, just sighed and went back to continue working overtime. He finally had a rest for two days.

And Liu Tan began to turn his attention to armaments again.

He suddenly remembered that the public loser sent him a new sight a few days ago, and he didn't even have time to read it. Now he just went to have a look, and by the way, read the letter his father wrote to him.

The letter Liu Che wrote to him was full of warmth, basically asking him if he was used to it, how he was spending on food and clothing, whether he was short of things, and told him not to hold back what he was missing.

Just watching this half of Liu Tan was still moved, but when he saw the second half, he found that the reason why Liu Che sent troops was to avenge him, and of course it was more to help him clean up the surrounding areas. Let him develop steadily.

Liu Tan swallowed a mouthful of blood and couldn't spit it out. He almost suffocated himself to death: This is really a real father!
