Chapter 302: Yu Hao's True Purpose

On the other side, on the wall of Jianmen Pass, Liu Changdao, Lu Xiaoming and others, the chief soldiers of Jianmen Pass, were anxiously waiting for something.

At this moment, a soldier hurriedly ran over, half-knelt on the ground and clenched his fists and said: "Report to the chief soldier, the scout has sent news that a cavalry has left the Xiongnu camp and headed straight for the direction of the Chimu River." ”

Hearing this, Liu Changdao's face suddenly turned happy, and it seemed that Yu Hao's side had succeeded.

After Lu Xiaoming and Zhu An came to Jianmen Pass, they explained Yu Hao's plan to Liu Changdao.

Although in Liu Changdao's view, Yu Hao's plan is too crazy, he also has some expectations, once Yu Hao's plan is successful, it will definitely be able to hurt the vitality of the Huns.

Since the Huns have sent reinforcements to aid the Chimu River, it means that Yu Hao's side has successfully raided the Xiongnu's lair.

"How many people are in this cavalry? Did the other armies of the Xiongnu have any intention of retreating? Liu Changdao hurriedly asked.

"Lord Hui, there are not many people, there should be twenty or thirty thousand, the remaining army is still building fortifications, and the forward battalion has also advanced five miles, it doesn't look like it's going to retreat." The soldier said truthfully.

Twenty or thirty thousand?

Lu Xiaoming frowned suddenly, only twenty or thirty thousand cavalry rushed back to the Chimu River, which means that there are at least 178,000 troops in the Hun camp.

Wouldn't Yu Hao's previous plan to wait for the Huns to begin a full retreat, and then use cavalry to pursue behind and rob the Xiongnu of supplies?

Liu Changdao also had no idea at this time, he was originally a rough man, and he had a body of martial arts, so it was okay for him to charge into battle, let him engage in these conspiracies and calculations, and he suddenly felt a pain in his brain.

"Third Prince, General Lu, in your opinion, what should we do now? Why don't we stay put, and continue to confront the Hun army? Liu Changdao asked tentatively.

Lu Xiaoming couldn't think of a good way, and just as he wanted to shake his head, Zhu An took the lead and said: "No, if we don't move, won't we let Yu Hao's plan be in vain?" ”

"But isn't Yu Hao's plan to chase after the Hun army retreats? Now that the Hun army has not retreated, it relies on our cavalry of less than 30,000, can it be sent to death? Lu Xiaoming said puzzled.

"That was just Yu Hao's plan at the beginning, although the initial plan was like this, but since the two of us didn't catch up with the team, this plan has changed." Zhu Andao.

"What do you mean by that?" Lu Xiaoming was stunned for a moment, and his brows furrowed even deeper.

Zhu An smiled slightly, a flash of confidence flashed in his eyes, and said, "Think about it, if Yu Haozhen follows the original plan, why do you want the two of us to drug the Huns' war horses?" ”

"To stall for time? Let them retreat with their captives? ”

"No, no, no." Zhu An shook his head and said, "If it's just to delay time, you are underestimating Yu Hao, since he dares to go deep alone, even if he knows the time and route of retreat, if nothing else, even if Chimu Ahan is unimpeded all the way, he will not be able to catch up with him." ”

After speaking, Zhu An saw that Lu Xiaoming and Liu Changdao still looked confused, so he continued to explain: "If I guessed correctly, Yu Hao really just wanted the Huns to not care about each other at the beginning, he could capture the important people of the Huns, and Jianmen Pass could also send cavalry to plunder the resources of the Huns." ”

Later, Yu Hao must have changed this idea, after all, what's the use of snatching resources back? The 200,000 troops of the Huns are still there, and even if we have hostages in our hands, sooner or later they will plunder the resources of our great cadres again! ”

"It is precisely because of this that Yu Hao changed his initial thoughts, and deliberately asked the two of us to drug the Huns' war horses to make them lose their advantages, in fact, Yu Hao's real purpose is to severely damage the Hun army, and even wipe it out!"

As soon as Zhu An's words came out, Lu Xiaoming and Liu Changdao's eyes widened.

Annihilation of the Hun army, how is this possible?

You must know that in many cases, Daqian needs at least three times the strength of the Xiongnu army to reach a draw with the Huns, and the total annihilation of the Xiongnu army can be described as a fool's dream!

In the entire history of Daqian, the only one who could completely annihilate the Hun army with less than three times the strength of the army was Yu Yi.

At the beginning, Yu Yi also used 100,000 against 50,000 of the Xiongnu, and with the help of terrain advantages, he wiped out all the 50,000 troops of the Xiongnu in a valley.

What's more, Yu Yi's shocking record was finally concealed by the imperial court, and very few people knew about it.

Therefore, in the eyes of Liu Changdao and Lu Xiaoming, it is simply impossible to completely annihilate the Huns.

"Third prince, you're not joking, are you? Do you mean to let us take the initiative and annihilate the Huns? That's outrageous, isn't it? Lu Xiaoming was surprised.

"Yes, Third Prince, are you sure Yu Hao thinks so?" Liu Changdao also said with some weakness.

In the face of the Xiongnu, the Daqian army has always had to hold on to the city, and they often paid a heavy price when they took the initiative to attack.

Seeing the surprised looks of the two, Zhu An smiled and shook his head.

At the beginning, after Zhu An saw the plan in the letter, he understood Yu Hao's true purpose, and to be honest, he was also taken aback.

Because Yu Hao's idea is so crazy, it can be said that there is no one before or since, as long as there is a mistake in any link, it may lead to a full loss.

In particular, taking the initiative to attack the Hun camp is even more outrageous!

You must know that the Xiongnu still have more than 100,000 troops left, and if the big cadre army wants to inflict heavy damage on the Xiongnu army, or even annihilate the Xiongnu army, it must attack with the whole army.

But once the 400,000 troops in Jianmen Pass poured out, once there was any mistake, Jianmen Pass would fall instantly, and the entire northern region of Daqian would also fall into the hands of the Xiongnu.

However, although this is a dangerous move, it is the best chance for Daqian to defeat the Huns!

Once this is defeated, I am afraid that it will bring decades of peace to Daqian, and even make the Xiongnu have no day to turn over!

Thinking of this, Zhu An hurriedly said, "What's the matter, two generals, are you afraid?" Don't forget, the horror of the Huns lies entirely in the war horses under their crotches, without the war horses they are just like us, what is there to fear? ”

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoming and Liu Changdao were stunned, yes, aren't the Huns without war horses just eagles without claws?

Everyone has two legs and two arms, who is afraid of whom?

"But the third prince, how do you know that the Huns really don't have war horses? What if the medicine we gave doesn't work? Lu Xiaoming expressed the worry in his heart.

If those war horses were not overturned, and the 400,000 army rashly attacked, it would be sent to death!

I saw Zhu An suddenly laugh, and said with confidence on his face: "General Lu, you are too worried, the news of the scouts has already said that the forward battalion of the Huns is advancing, and the other battalions are also building fortifications. ”

"They are on the attacking side, so why should they build fortifications?"

"It means that the war horses are gone, they are afraid, they are afraid that our army will attack them!"

"This is a godsend, if you and I miss it, we will regret it for the rest of my life!"
