Chapter 380: Extermination Plan
Meng Tian and Fu Su looked at Yi Xiaochuan with puzzled faces, it seemed to be a historical event in the literal sense, and they couldn't figure out what the siege of Baideng meant.
The siege of Baideng can be said to be the first unequal treaty in Chinese history, Liu Bang personally conquered the Xiongnu, but was directly surrounded by the Xiongnu, and directly paid compensation and relatives.
This incident also directly made the ethnic minorities in the north no longer be as afraid of the Central Plains Dynasty as before, and even gave birth to the psychology of replacing it.
It seems that in the past, it was always the Central Plains Dynasty that hung and beaten, but the northern ethnic minorities have never had such a thing.
From this incident, it can also be seen how cruel the war in China was during the late Qin and early Han dynasties.
During the Qin Dynasty, Meng Tian attacked the Xiongnu in the north to the siege of Baideng in Liu Bang, and it was only twenty or thirty years of hard work in the middle.
Yi Xiaochuan was a little silent for a while, even if he was not a historian, he knew that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had consumed decades of recuperation for several generations of emperors of the Han Dynasty in order to defeat the Xiongnu in the north.
In an unknown place on the grassland, more than a dozen Qin army generals in a tent had sad faces.
"General, this is the current situation"!
As one of the officers finished speaking, Meng Tian's face became even more solemn, looking back and forth at the map placed on the table.
Chen Feng was also a little hesitant when he sat on the side, and now he had been deep in the grassland for more than two months, and as a result, he didn't even know where the main force of the Huns was.
During this time, although there were battles with the Hun cavalry from time to time, most of them were scout troops.
More importantly, due to the deep into the grassland, the logistics supply was obviously not available, and the Huns seemed to see this, and from time to time sent large groups of cavalry to attack the officers and soldiers who transported grain and grass, so that the soldiers and people who transported grain and grass suffered heavy casualties, and a large number of military supplies fell into the hands of the Huns.
"What do you guys think about this"?
Meng Tian thought about it for a while, and thought of several methods, but he felt that something was not appropriate, and he really couldn't do anything, so he could only turn to look at the people present.
The crowd looked at each other, but no one spoke.
This is an endless grassland, which is most suitable for cavalry combat, and Daqin's cavalry simply cannot support it.
Even once the news of the attack on the logistics and transportation troops was received, by the time Great Qin sent men and horses to rush over, it would already be too late, and it would be useless at all.
Meng Tian discussed with his subordinates, Chen Feng didn't care at all, and Chen Feng was staring at a place on the map at this time.
"What's going on in this place"?
Chen Feng opened his mouth to look at a general, this person was a scout general belonging to the army, and the map in front of him was drawn by his subordinates.
Hearing Chen Feng's inquiry, this person quickly stood up, came to the map, looked at the place Chen Feng was pointing to, pondered for a while, and then spoke.
"Returning to the National Teacher, this is a depression in the middle, and on both sides are high cliffs, about thirty or forty meters high."
This person sighed while talking, if this place is placed in the territory of Daqin, it must belong to a natural danger, but it is a pity that it is on the grassland, there is no use here, and even once the army is stationed in it, it is very likely to be surrounded by the Huns, and in the end it will not even be able to get out.
Meng Tian also came to Chen Feng's side and looked at the place Chen Feng was pointing to.
"It's an ambush spot, it's a pity it's misplaced".
Looking at Meng Tian's reaction, Chen Feng smiled, and a plan slowly formed in his heart.
"Looking at the map, it doesn't seem that this place is too far away from us, tomorrow I will bring some people, I will go to the scene to see the situation."
Seeing that Chen Feng actually wanted to go to the scene, this person was a little anxious, and Meng Tian hurriedly spoke to dissuade him.
"National teacher. I've seen the situation here, and it's useless at all."
"General Meng, you and I are not the same kind of people, maybe they are useless in your eyes, but they may be of great use in my eyes."
Chen Feng shook his head, his plan was really a bit inhumane, and even once it was really implemented, as the mastermind of this matter, he was very likely to be punished by God.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade Chen Feng, Meng Tian could only nod silently, just ordering some more people to protect him.
"Yes, yes, it's really good enough here."
The next day, Chen Feng came to the place marked on the map, touched the smooth walls on both sides, and Chen Feng nodded lightly.
After turning the entire valley, I found that the area of this valley was quite large, at least 70,000 square meters.
The most important thing is that this place is indeed a little weird, the entrance and exit are long and narrow, and the area in the middle is huge.
After returning to the barracks, Chen Feng hurriedly found Meng Tian, and the plan in his heart still needed Meng Tian's cooperation.
"No, absolutely not."
When Chen Feng finished talking about all the plans, Meng Tian was shocked at first, and then directly rejected Chen Feng, and even showed a sense of fear for Chen Feng in his eyes.
"General Meng, apart from this, can you find another way to duel the main force of the Huns as soon as possible? You must know that we must win this battle, otherwise I may not die, but you will be blamed then."
Chen Feng stared at Meng Tian with a frosty face, his plan is actually quite simple, although the main force of the Xiongnu cannot be found at present, but at this time, Daqin's army has penetrated deep into the grassland, and the surrounding grasslands are full of Xiongnu tribes.
As long as Daqin is willing, he can take these old men, women, girls and children of the Xiongnu tribe as hostages at any time.
As for the location, I've already chosen it, and it's the Jedi I'm looking at today.
At that time, even if the Huns don't want to show up, I'm afraid it will be difficult, as long as Daqin is ruthless, he will kill all the old people, children, and women in these tribes. The main force of the Xiongnu has become a rootless talisman and will automatically perish in a short time.
This plan of your own can be regarded as a dignified conspiracy, either you come to save people, or you will watch these people being killed by Great Qin.
"National teacher, it's not that I don't agree with your plan, it's really that this plan is a bit too inhumane, I allow my soldiers to fight with the main force of the Huns openly, even if I die on the battlefield, I am willing, but I really don't want to use women, children and old people as threats to win."
If he was an ordinary soldier, Meng Tian would naturally be very willing to use this method, but as a commander, he must have a long-term vision.
Today's army of Great Qin can use this method to exterminate the Xiongnu, and it is inevitable that the armies of other countries will use the same method to exterminate Great Qin in the future.
And once this plan is implemented, Great Qin and the Xiongnu will become an undying existence, either Daqin will completely destroy the Xiongnu, or the Xiongnu will destroy Daqin.
"I can't manage so much of the poor road, if the ministers in the court blame me in the future, you will push it directly on me."
