Chapter 1245

The fortunate thing was that the Xiongnu had no siege weapons.

These messages were just learned by Ying Ying Zi Ye.

"Fortunately, I brought a fifty-thousand-strong army."

"Otherwise, we might not be able to beat the Xiongnu army."

Ying Ying Zi Ye muttered; he really didn't expect the Xiongnu to have so many troops.

Originally, he just wanted to bring those new recruits to experience it.

Preparing to let them be stationed here for a long time to fight.

It was just a precaution.

Never did he expect the Xiongnu soldiers to suddenly increase by so many.

Without thinking, he knew that among these troops, there must be many Donghu and Dayuezhi people.

Otherwise, the Xiongnu could not have gathered so many troops.

If they had this strength, they would have gone to war with Great Qin long ago.

They wouldn't have waited until now to launch an attack.

However, the Xiongnu couldn't get in; as long as they didn't go out.

Both sides wouldn't start a war.

But looking at the Xiongnu now, they wouldn't stop until they broke the Great Wall.

It was estimated that the vast majority of the Xiongnu were here.

It was rare for the Xiongnu to gather so many troops at once.

If they could wipe out the Xiongnu here in one go.

That would truly be once and for all.

Now, the Great Qin soldiers added up to over a million.

They had already surpassed the Xiongnu.

The number of people on both sides was evenly matched.

Even if they went out of the city to fight, there would be no problem.

Before, he had asked Meng Tian not to attack so quickly.

To be on the safe side, wait until everyone was gathered.

"General, now our number should exceed the Xiongnu army."

"But the Xiongnu army doesn't know; what are you planning to do next?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at Meng Tian, wanting to see how he planned to do it.

Meng Tian brought a map and pointed to the position on it.

It was exactly an open space outside the Great Wall.

"Your Highness, before, we had fewer people than the opponent, and you didn't let us fight."

"Therefore, both sides were at peace."

"Now our manpower exceeds the opponent."

"No matter how we fight, the chance of winning is very high."

"We can mobilize all the troops to the open space for a frontal battle."

"Or lure them all in."

"It's just that nearly a million-strong Xiongnu army shouldn't be so easy to lure in."

"I don't know if Your Highness will command personally or what?"

This was Meng Tian's confidence.

No matter how they fought, the chance of winning was very high.

If these words were spoken by someone else, perhaps they would be considered arrogant.

But when spoken by Meng Tian, everything was so natural.

One must know that General Meng Tian had once driven the Xiongnu out of the Hetao region with thirty thousand troops.

Beating the Xiongnu until they lost their armor and weapons.

If it weren't for Ying Ying Zi Ye's previous order not to attack recklessly.

Otherwise, Meng Tian might have wanted to fight the Xiongnu army hard with tens of thousands of troops.

Now that he had brought fifty thousand troops, Meng Tian's confidence had expanded even more.

Of course, they could fight however they wanted.

"Eh, you are responsible for these things."

"How to fight a war, how to set up a formation, these are your specialties."

"This Prince is just here to witness a piece of history."

"Just here to take a look; everything still depends on you."

Ying Ying Zi Ye didn't want to interfere with the command.

As the saying goes, professional matters are best handled by professional people.

He didn't know how to command a battle; he was completely ignorant about fighting.

It was fine to let him go up and kill a few people.

Letting him command a battle was really not his strength.

Meng Tian breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

If His Highness didn't command, then everything was under his control.

There was a greater certainty in fighting the Xiongnu.

If someone who didn't understand war were allowed to command.

Even a powerful army wouldn't necessarily win.

Meng Tian laughed at himself; His Highness was not someone who liked to meddle in other people's business.

How could he want to control the command?

It was all his own overthinking.

"Your Highness, then when shall we launch the attack?"

Some generals suggested, as they couldn't wait any longer.

After all, the Xiongnu had been clamoring at their doorstep for quite a while.

If they didn't go out to teach them a lesson, they would really think the Qin people were afraid of them.

Ying Ying Zi Ye pondered for a while before speaking slowly.

"The new recruits have been on the road for so long; it's impossible for them not to be tired."

"Only by resting well can they fight with full spirit."

"Now that we have the Great Wall as a natural barrier, the Xiongnu outside don't know the situation inside."

"We can use this advantage to rest well before participating in the war."

"This time needs at least a day or two."

Ying Ying Zi Ye didn't want to let exhausted soldiers participate in the war immediately.

After all, now that there was the Great Wall barrier, it was up to them when to launch the war.

If there were no Great Wall barrier, throwing exhausted soldiers into the war would definitely result in greater losses.

The soldiers nodded one after another; this suggestion was good.

"Then we will drag the Xiongnu army for a while longer."

"Wait a day or two before going out to duel with them."

"Anyway, they can't get in; we can start the war whenever we want."

"What can the Xiongnu do? They can only watch helplessly."

"When we have rested well, that will be the time for the general attack."

"This plan is feasible; let them jump around for a few more days, and then we will deal with them."

"The Xiongnu definitely didn't guess that our reinforcements had arrived, right?"

"It's truly interesting; I really want to see the faces of the Xiongnu."

"The Xiongnu gathered so many troops here; if I'm not mistaken, their Chanyu should also be here."

"When we go out, and our number is greater than theirs, I really want to see his expression!"
