Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 1077: Surrender and then rebel again, causing chaos and shocking the world
Liu Can found out that more than half of the surrendered Han army had torn a piece of cloth and tied it around their heads, and all of them were listless, as if they had lost the battle.

Something is wrong. The emperor has been captured. This is a rare victory. Why is it like this? Could it be that he still misses his old master?
Anxiety grew in her heart, but Liu Can had to use various reasons to try to convince herself.

But when he saw Zhao Ran, who was kneeling in front of him to apologize with a guilty look on his face, and heard the other party tell him the outcome of the battle, Liu Can suddenly froze on the spot, his mind going blank.

"This is the crime of a low-ranking general. He failed to realize in time that those people were already crazy and allowed them to do such beastly behavior. It is a serious crime. I am willing to be punished..."

"You said the Emperor of the Central Plains is dead?"

Liu Can finally came to his senses. He asked calmly as if he had not heard what Zhao Ran said before.

Zhao Ran was startled and had to bite the bullet and said it again, emphasizing at the end: "The general is also responsible for this and is willing to be punished!"

"Are you willing to be punished?" Liu Can's face was expressionless. He looked at Zhao Ran and shook his head gently, "What punishment do you want to be punished? What punishment can you receive? Do you think you can shoulder this responsibility?! Ah!" At the end of the sentence , he suddenly looked ferocious, roared wildly, and kicked Zhao Ran out while he was half-kneeling in front of him!
This kick hit Zhao Ran right on the forehead, making the traitor general's senses roar, but he did not dodge or avoid it, and stood firm.

When Liu Can took back his foot, blood was flowing from Zhao Ran's forehead.

This Hun prince had also been practicing martial arts since he was a child. This kick had already severely injured Zhao Ran, but the latter did not dare to show it because the current incident was indeed fatal. If he could use this injury on his head to get forgiveness from the Huns, then Zhao Ran would feel that he had made a profit!
Unfortunately, things didn't turn out as he imagined.

"Okay! You, Zhao Ran, are really a loyal minister of the Central Plains!" After the kick, Liu Can smiled coldly, raised a trembling finger, and pointed at Zhao Ran, "Do you think those deceptive words can deceive Gu? The Emperor of the Central Plains Ah, how big a fuss will his death make? You don’t know, don’t you know? Take off this man’s armor, arrest him, and keep him under good supervision!”

"Prince!" Zhao Ran panicked. He knelt on the ground and crawled towards Liu Can on both hands and feet. He said in a panic: "It really has nothing to do with the general. When the general arrives, the emperor has already I'm dying, how can this be blamed on the last general, I hope the prince will see clearly!"

"Of course you have to be careful!" Liu Can's face was sullen, and the beating veins could be faintly seen on his forehead. "If you are not careful, you might be deceived! Do you think I am making things difficult for you now? But have you ever thought about it? , how should I explain to my father after I go back alone? Ah! You can tell me! All the forces around here are eyeing them, and my father has been looking forward to it, but it turned out to be ruined in your hands! When the time comes, Guanzhong will be crusaded, and Jiangzuo will be mobilized. , Youzhou sends troops, how do you explain it, can you really shoulder this responsibility?"

This is also what Liu Can is thinking.

He personally went to the front line to take charge, knowing that the Emperor of the Central Plains was there. As long as he could catch someone, it would be a great achievement. From then on, the prince's status was completely stable and there would be no more challenges.

With such unparalleled achievements, if there are still people who want to challenge his position, he doesn't have to take action himself, others will come to encircle and suppress him.

In the end, the man was not caught, but the body of the Emperor of the Central Plains was found. If the news spread, you can imagine with your toes how many people would fight against the Huns because of this incident!
Not to mention that Zhao Ran couldn't bear this responsibility, even Liu Can might not be able to bear it!Liu Can couldn't even tell how Liu Cong and his ministers would react when they returned to the army this time.

Looking back on this matter, he came out of town just to find fault!
Thinking of the annoyance, Liu Can's heart was in a mess, but he still had to report the news truthfully, otherwise if it took a long time, he would not know what would happen, and it might be even more difficult to explain clearly.

So he ignored Zhao Ran's pleas, flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.Later, Zhao Ran was grabbed by several generals and dragged away. However, as he was leaving, the Han army rebel general's eyes revealed strong resentment and fear.

Liu Can could no longer care about this. To him, it didn't matter what Zhao Ran was thinking. The top priority was to quickly control the impact of this matter, especially not to let the news leak out!
So, a quarter of an hour later, the situation was written into a battle report and sent north.

In the battle report, Liu Can tried his best to take away all his responsibilities and put most of the problems on Zhao Ran. If nothing unexpected happens, Zhao Ran is completely cool, and he will basically have to bear all the blame.

However, because of this, the rebel general of the Han army became a key figure.

So after writing the battle report, Liu Can immediately asked about Zhao Ran's situation. When he learned that he had been imprisoned, the Hun prince said another thing: "Take good care of Zhao Ran's soldiers and horses. Remove all their weapons and leave no hidden dangers. This man betrayed his master and killed him. His crime is unforgivable and cannot be trusted. His subordinates must also be on guard!"

All the subordinates quickly said yes, but they could not help but murmur in their hearts. After all, this Hun prince did not say that before. At that time, he wanted to look magnanimous.

However, everyone also knew how serious this matter was, so they put aside their thoughts and prepared to execute it meticulously.

But when a few subordinates here stepped out, a few soldiers over there hurried over and reported a surprising news——

"Zhao Ran's generals rebelled. After disguising themselves, his soldiers broke into the place where Zhao Ran was imprisoned and took him out. They are now fighting with our army!"

"What a Zhao Ran!" Liu Can was filled with smoke when he heard this, "I trust him so much, yet I dare to rebel again. Such a capricious person deserves to be killed! Listen to the orders on both sides and tell the lieutenants of the army that Zhao Ran , Kill without mercy!"

Liu Can was determined to eliminate this hidden danger, and no one could say more if he tried to shirk responsibility afterwards.

Compared with Zhao Ran's soldiers, the Xiongnu soldiers and horses were much more powerful. Otherwise, why would the Han general change sides in the face of battle?Therefore, as soon as the Xiongnu soldiers counterattacked, Zhao Ran's people immediately retreated, and soon collapsed completely.

It was just that this provided time and space for Zhao Ran, and finally allowed the Han rebel general to escape and disappear into the forest.

This result made Liu Can furious, and he immediately mobilized his men to search everywhere.

On the other hand, with such a big commotion, the news of the emperor's death could not be concealed. The secret agents and spies inside and outside the barracks, after being shocked, immediately spread the news through various channels!

The world is covered with dark clouds!
