Chapter 946

~4 min read 729 words

Now, this method of His Highness is excellent!

We couldn't catch the Xiongnu cavalry while they were out.

But if we stop pursuing, the Xiongnu will think we have given up.

As long as they return to their base camp, and we follow them, we will definitely be able to discover it.

Without the telescopes, they wouldn't dare guarantee they wouldn't be discovered by the other side.

But the advantage of the telescopes is that they can see very far.

Using the telescopes to follow the Xiongnu, as long as the distance is far enough, it is impossible for them to discover that they are being tracked.

As long as we know where their lair is, we can simply advance with the great army.

There is no need to pursue them on this vast grassland.

These Xiongnu are also incredibly cunning.

They pursued for several days, but the Xiongnu were just circling around, not returning to their lair.

This also left Meng Tian and the others quite helpless.

But they had no other choice.

Now, this method mentioned by His Highness,

doesn't it solve the problem at hand perfectly?

"This method is good!"

"As expected of His Highness, to be able to think of such a method."

"Why didn't we think of it?"

"Just send small teams to follow; there's no need for the great army to move out."

"Mobilizing the entire army, leaving the great army exhausted, is not worth the loss."

"As long as we know their lair, that's enough."

"It seems our pursuit these past few days was a bit reckless."

"We were all angered by the Xiongnu and only thought of catching up to give them a beating."

"So this is what 'giving up the pursuit, but not entirely' means."

"Thanks to His Highness for suggesting this method; otherwise, who knows how long this chase would have lasted."

The generals were overjoyed; it was truly an unexpected surprise.

The faces that had been tense for these past few days finally relaxed.

They showered Ying Ying Zi Ye with flattery as if it cost nothing.

Ying Ying Zi Ye was speechless upon hearing this.

This group of people were truly... sycophants.

Now is not the time for flattery.

Resting the great army is the first priority.

"Alright, alright."

"Less flattery, more action."

"Let's decide on this happily."

"Set up camp first, and we'll talk after we've rested well."

Ying Ying Zi Ye stopped the praise from the crowd.

If he didn't stop them, this group would never end.

The generals smiled awkwardly and left one after another.

This was good news.

Passing it down would also let the soldiers be happy for a while.

Soon, the news was passed down.

The great army suddenly became boisterous.

At first, some thought they were giving up.

They almost rioted.

If they gave up at this time, all previous efforts would be in vain.

None of them wanted their hard work to go down the drain.

The soldiers found their superiors one after another, wanting to persuade the generals not to give up.

They almost resorted to a petition written in blood.

Meng Tian and the others looked at the indignant soldiers and smiled with relief.

So, the soldiers had never thought of giving up either.

Even though they were bitter and tired, they never thought of giving up, which made Meng Tian and the others very relieved.

Originally, when they told the people below to stop the pursuit, they didn't explain much as to why.

The soldiers thought they were giving up, which led to some emotions.

They didn't want to give up; they wanted to pursue no matter how tired they were.

This resilient spirit is worthy of commendation.

Seeing this indomitable spirit of the soldiers, Meng Tian and the others had to tell them the truth.

When the soldiers learned that things were not as they had imagined,

their emotions calmed down.

As long as they weren't giving up, it was fine.

They were also very tired, but they just didn't want to give up.

Sending small teams to use the telescopes to track the Xiongnu's lair.

This move couldn't be better.

After learning that this was His Highness's decision,

the soldiers all settled down.

Now they could rest in peace.

No need to run until they were tired like dogs anymore. ===== CHAPTER 948 =====
