    "What Captain Diannong" After hearing Liu Cong's words, Li Sanhuai was stunned.

    Although he didn¡¯t know what Diannong Xiaowei was, he also knew that he was an official!

    He has been an ordinary citizen and a pariah for generations. When did he ever think about having an official position?  It¡¯s not that I haven¡¯t thought about it, it¡¯s that I don¡¯t dare to think about it!  But now, because of planting potatoes, I suddenly became an official and had an official status. This happiness came too fast!  Li Sanhuai was at a loss.

    "Li Sanhuai, the King of Han has made you the captain of Diannong School. Why don't you thank me quickly? Are you still unwilling?" Huangfuhong naturally understood when he saw Li Sanhuai's appearance, so he reminded him.

    "The King of Hanit turns out to be the King of Hanthe common peoplethe subordinatesthe subordinatesthe subordinates would like to thank you for your kindness" Li Sanhuai was eloquent just now, but now he was stammering and unable to speak a complete sentence.

    The name of the King of Han is as loud as thunder in the ears of all the people in Beidi County.  Everyone knows that in the battle of Maling, the 100,000-strong army of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King Liu Bao was defeated.  And from now on, no Hun soldiers would go south again.

    Li Sanhuai was a little surprised just now. Why are these soldiers different from the past? They still reason with the people. It turns out that they are under the command of the King of Han, and they are the Han army!

    "Li Sanhuai, he is the Huangfu Governor of Beidi County. You will be under his command from now on. As long as Beidi County can grow potatoes on a large scale, it will be a great achievement, and I will definitely reward you!"

    "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will definitely let potatoes grow all over Beidi County!" Li Sanhuai looked very excited. He may not have the confidence to be an official, but he can grow potatoes!

    "Huangfuhong, please contact merchants from the Western Regions immediately and ask them to sell more potatoes to make seeds. It's just early summer, so it's not too late to plant them. You can try planting some!"

    Although Li Sanhuai¡¯s potatoes are already growing luxuriantly, Liu Cong feels that the climate here has just warmed up, and it may still be time to plant them now.

    "No!"

    "After the more than 3,000 disabled soldiers recover from their injuries, they can be allowed to participate in planting potatoes, building roads, maintaining trees, and doing whatever they can, but they must pay attention to their health and not be too strenuous!"

    "No!"

    The next day, Liu Cong continued to inspect Beidi County. While Huangfuhong arranged for officials to contact merchants from the Western Regions to buy potatoes, he asked several officials to stay here and transferred some county soldiers to let the newly appointed Diannong captain  Li Sanhuai chose a suitable place around him and prepared to try planting potatoes.

    During the inspection, Liu Cong basically determined several important things that Beidi County will do in the future.

    Planting potatoes and trees are the most important, followed by building roads, canals and reservoirs.

    Beidi County is subject to drought all year round, but there are also several small rivers. If used properly, some irrigation problems can be solved.

    On the third day, Liu Cong and his party left Maling City for about a hundred miles and were walking forward. Suddenly a scout came to report that a group of robbers were robbing a caravan ahead.

    Since Liu Cong occupied Beidi County, Hao Zhaosu had sent troops to annihilate it several times. The robbers had slowly disappeared, but they appeared now, which was really surprising.

    "How many robbers are there?"

    "Reporting to the prince, there are about seven to eight hundred people and more than two hundred horses!"

    "Seven to eight hundred people" Huangfuhong was a little surprised when he heard this, "My lord, there are still robbers in Beidi County, but there are only less than 200 robbers in the largest cloud in the sky! There have never been seven or eight hundred people.  Hundreds of robbers!"

    "Shi A, let the imperial guards line up and slowly push them over!" No matter what, since the robbers were robbing the caravan, Liu Cong couldn't ignore it.

    "No!"

    The five hundred imperial guards are all cavalry, well-equipped, and selected from veterans of hundreds of battles. How can they be afraid of the seven or eight hundred robbers?  So they immediately formed an attack formation and pressed forward.

    Turning around a small hill, I first heard shouts of death and screams. After walking about three or four miles further, I saw a sandy field in front of me, where more than a thousand people were mixed together.

    In the middle is a caravan with two to three hundred people, carriages and camels.  They also had more than 200 guards, but most of them were dead or injured.

    There were seven to eight hundred robbers outside, surrounding them.  Among them, two hundred cavalry were outside and did not charge.  The robbers without horses, armed with various weapons, were surrounding and killing the caravan's guards.

    "My lord, those riding horses are all Huns soldiers!" Fazheng said, looking ahead.

    "Yes, they are the defeated troops of the Xiongnu!" Liu Cong nodded.

    Although these people wear different leather armors, the weapons in their hands are basically the sameLiu Cong is also familiar with the scimitar and those war horses.  Obviously, it was the defeat of the Battle of Maling.

    In the battle of Maling, many tribal leaders were killed. It turned out that their remaining soldiers were all recruited by Liu Bao.  However, when they withdrew, they were ambushed by Zhang Xiu, and many soldiers dispersed and became stragglers. These are obviously some of them.

    "My lord, the one riding the big black horse is Man Tianyun, the biggest robber leader in Beidi County before!" Huangfuhong pointed to a small hill in front of him. He saw five people riding on horses. It was obvious that they were robbers.  The leader, "Those next to Man Tianyun are also former bandit leaders. Last year, General Hao Zhao suppressed the bandits, and they fled in all directions. Unexpectedly, they are now colluding with the Huns soldiers to harm the passing merchants!"

    At this time, dozens more of the caravan guards were dead, and the robbers were about to rush into the caravan.

    "Shi Ah, lead the imperial army and wipe out all these Xiongnu soldiers and robbers!" Liu Cong ordered loudly.

    "No!" Shi A agreed, waving the long sword in his hand, "Kill me!"

    "Kill!" These Royal Forest Army soldiers could no longer bear it. After hearing Shi'a's order, they shouted at the same time, beating their horses like flying, and rushed towards them.

    "Han Army Han Army is coming" Although the Xiongnu soldiers were not fighting with the caravan guards just now, they were all looking at the battlefield and did not realize that they were surrounded. When they saw the Han Army cavalry all over the mountains and plains, they suddenly  Terrified.

    "If they had seen Han troops who were larger than them in the past, they might not be afraid, or they wouldn't take it seriously.  However, in the Battle of Maling, they had already experienced the terror of this Han army, so they did not listen to General Ya's command and fled in all directions.

    But now that they want to escape, how can the Imperial Guard soldiers agree? They are all holding repeating crossbows, and they also have Han knives and throwing spears hanging on them. With such good equipment, if the Huns soldiers escape, won't they lose the Imperial Guard's face?

    So several centurions led their soldiers to block all the roads, and then scattered arrows densely.

    "Ah" The Huns soldiers fell on their backs and kept screaming.

    Those robbers, seeing that all the caravan guards were killed, were about to steal things, but they did not expect that the situation suddenly changed.  Just for a moment, the Royal Forest Army's war horses rushed over.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
