Chapter 687

Sending ten thousand large armies was already bearing huge pressure.

"Han Xin, are you stupid or reckless?"

"Send twenty thousand or even the whole army?"

"How did you think of this?"

"If there is a Xiongnu attack or something happens, who will bear this responsibility?"

"It's a pity you can think of this method."

"Your method is too risky; the gain is not worth the loss!"

"And sending so many troops requires instructions from above."

"It's not that you can send as many troops as you want."

"If the above blames us, who will be responsible for this?"

"It's fine if nothing happens, but once something happens, this responsibility is too big."

None of the generals looked favorably on Han Xin's method.

After all, the Great Wall cannot be left unguarded; one should not fear ten thousand, but fear the unexpected.

Meng Tian had roughly guessed Han Xin's method just now.

Sure enough, it was about the same as what he thought.

This method is good, but if the whole army attacks,

it won't work if no one guards the Great Wall, and it won't work if it's not reported to the above.

Han Xin's method is about the same as what he thought just now.

If the large army can move out, it is almost a steady victory.

It is even possible to capture those people without spending a single soldier.

This is also the most secure method.

As for the Great Wall here, some people can be left to guard it.

He needs an excuse, and now Han Xin has put it forward like this.

"General, when the general is outside, the monarch's orders may not be accepted."

"Now the opportunity is rare; if we can crush the Xiongnu people with the large army,"

"why send ten thousand soldiers to fight to the death without spending a single soldier?"

Han Xin felt unconvinced after hearing the words of a group of generals.

It would be a pity to miss such a good opportunity.

And if one can crush the Xiongnu people, why fight to the death?

Meng Tian sighed inwardly; this kid Han Xin's idea is unique.

This person has courage, which coincides with his idea.

He only needs an excuse, which others can't see.

But this kid Han Xin might have seen this point.

Whether it is guarding the Great Wall or the blame from above, he has thought about these.

However, as long as this matter can succeed, the above will probably not blame him.

"General, if this matter succeeds, it is simply a great merit."

"Maybe there will be rewards; the worst is just to offset the merits and demerits."

"As long as the number of people is enough, we will definitely be able to capture those Xiongnu people without spending a single soldier."

"It's too late to report to Xianyang City in terms of time, otherwise it would be fine to report it."

Han Xin did not give up and continued to persuade Meng Tian.

He knew that this opportunity was rare; if he went late, he was afraid that those people would get the news and escape.

Meng Tian was somewhat moved; how could he not want to?

What Han Xin said was the truth, and he saw it very clearly.

"General, what do you think of this?"

"Send out the large army; if the above blames us, I, Han Xin, will bear this matter alone."

"I know that my status is not qualified to say this, but I am favored by His Highness."

"If anything happens, I, Han Xin, request His Highness to punish only me."

"I only ask for the large army to move out and directly crush the Xiongnu people!"

"The son of Touman Chanyu has been captured by His Highness and taken for trading; the current Xiongnu people probably won't dare to sneak attack easily."

Han Xin's tone was firm; he had already said so.

If General Meng Tian still didn't agree,

then there was really no way, and it could only be dropped.

At this moment, the generals stopped talking.

He didn't expect Han Xin to be able to do this step in order to kill or capture the Xiongnu.

Willing to bear everything alone.

Han Xin was not qualified to say this.

But His Highness favored him, so there was nothing wrong with him saying this.

Meng Tian's expression also changed unpredictably.

Han Xin could do this step.

Could choose to bear it himself in order to strike the Xiongnu.

Then as a general, is his courage not as good as Han Xin's?

Thinking of this, Meng Tian felt that the opportunity had come.

He lacked an excuse to attack, and now Han Xin persuaded him like this.

It was giving him a very good excuse.

As long as the large army is sent out quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly, the chance of a great victory is very high.

Even if there is punishment, it should be him who bears it.

There is no reason for Han Xin to bear it.

Even Han Xin dares to do so, why doesn't he dare?

Thinking of this, Meng Tian's heart suddenly opened up.

"Deputy General Qian, Han Xin."

"The last general is here!"

The two of them came out excitedly.

They knew that the General was about to give orders.

"Equip the weapons and equipment sent by His Highness as soon as possible."

"Leave fifty thousand people to guard the camp, and twenty-five thousand large armies will all attack!"

"This time, let's fight a crushing battle and force them all to surrender!"

Meng Tian's idea was consistent with Han Xin's, which was to fight a surprise attack.

Surround and surprise them without the other party knowing.

Crush them in terms of numbers.

If they dare not to surrender, then kill them until they surrender!

Han Xin's idea was not wrong; even Han Xin had such courage.

He, Meng Tian, was not weaker than others.

All the generals were stunned by the General's words.

A mere less than one hundred thousand Xiongnu people, and they want to send twenty-five thousand large armies?

Do they deserve it?

Why did they listen to Han Xin's strategy?

If there is any accident, what should be done?

However, thinking about forcing them all to surrender by suppressing them in numbers.

Sending more people is inevitable.

In this way, they can be captured without spending a single soldier, which is not difficult to understand. ===== CHAPTER 689 =====
