~7 min read 1,221 words

But Xiang Yu was angry: "If I don't kill Li Li Yuanba, how can I avenge my uncle's hatred?"

He was furious, and finally, he abandoned Fan Zeng and took two thousand men to the Xiongnu!

"You..."

Watching Xiang Yu leave, Fan Zeng was angry, but had no way to stop him.

Finally, he could only watch Xiang Yu head to the Xiongnu!

"Sub-father!"

"Sub-father!"

At that moment, Xiang Yu was extremely excited!

And Fan Zeng looked at Xiang Yu and sighed:

"Alas! If I don't come, if you are beaten to death by Li Li Yuanba, how can I explain it to the spirit of Xiang Liang in heaven!"

He shook his head and sighed.

And as soon as these words were spoken, many people felt uncomfortable!

But Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu looked at Fan Zeng and bowed to him, asking:

"You just said we should quickly find the next place Han Xin is going to attack?"

"How do we find this place?"

Fan Zeng said: "Search along the river course. Now, he has cut off the Azagu River, as well as the Mozi River and three other rivers!"

"With this, the south of the grasslands has completely fallen!"

"And the next place he will attack will definitely be the Tuermu River!"

"This river runs through the entire west of the grasslands; as long as this river is cut off, he can occupy the west of the grasslands on a large scale and force the Xiongnu to migrate north again!"

"This way, he can complete his driving plan!"

"And searching along the Tuermu River, the Hulun Grassland, six hundred miles away, is where the Tuermu River has the most branches and the narrowest river course!"

"To cut off this river, cutting it from here is the best choice!"

"Therefore, the next place he will attack must be here!"

Fan Zeng said this casually.

And Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu, seeing him speak like this without even looking at the map, was both shocked and terrified!

What kind of god-like person was this!

To be able to analyze Han Xin's tactical arrangements without even looking at the map!

He was shocked to the point of numbness!

But he didn't easily believe it; instead, he immediately had someone bring a map, and then, looking along the map, he began to watch!

And after watching this time, he was completely stunned, because everything Fan Zeng said was true!

The Hulun Grassland was indeed where the Tuermu River had the most branches and the narrowest river course!

And to cut off the river, this was indeed the best place!

Except for this place, the river courses elsewhere were too wide to be cut off!

"You... you..."

At this instant, he was even more shocked!

You must know, this was the grasslands!

And the other party was just a person from the Central Plains, yet he understood the terrain of the grasslands to this extent!

He was shocked, at this moment, extremely stunned!

However, Fan Zeng's words were shocking as always; he stated directly: "If the Great Khan wants to immediately dispatch a large army to garrison here, that is absolutely courting death!"

"Because... relying on pure defense, you can't defend against it at all!"

"The result will be, no matter how many people you send, that many will die!"

"This..."

Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu was numb, but without any hesitation, he bowed to Fan Zeng:

"I hope the gentleman will enlighten me!"

Fan Zeng said: "If you want to stop Han Xin's army, the top priority for the Xiongnu army is to gain the initiative!"

"Like now, the enemy has already started attacking here, and you are only rushing to send troops. By the time your army arrives, they have already cut off the river, and the people you sent are just going to die in front of Li Li Yuanba!"

"Even if you can predict where Han Xin is going to attack in advance, so what?"

"Your grasslands are so big; if they see your defenses are tight here, they will turn to attack other places and cut off other rivers. What will you do then?"

"Even if you are Xiongnu and have horses and run fast, but... being led around by the nose like a dog, is it fun?"

"Passive defense is the worst strategy!"

"Following the enemy's movements is the worst of the worst strategies!"

"And the true best strategy is to master the initiative!"

"How to master the initiative?"

"Cut off the supply line!"

"What?"

As the words were spoken, Xiang Yu, Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu, and all the Xiongnu generals felt their scalps go numb!

They were shocked beyond words!

Fan Zeng continued: "Cutting off the supply line has been the main way of fighting in the Central Plains since Sun Bin!"

"In the old Battle of Changping, Qin's Bai Qi fought Zhao's Zhao Kuo!"

"In the early stages of the war, Qin fought hard, and Zhao's Zhao Kuo exchanged twenty-five thousand of Bai Qi's men for fifty thousand of his own!"

"This made Bai Qi terrified!"

"Finally, by sending small detachments to cut off Zhao's supply line, leaving the Zhao army with no food to eat, and then using persuasion to surrender, deceiving the Zhao army into surrendering, twenty thousand men disarmed forty thousand Zhao troops, and the Battle of Changping was a great victory!"

"And we can do the same!"

"On the way here, I observed that although Han Xin's army has stockpiled grain, the transportation line is too long, and the personnel are scarce, with only a thousand people transporting grain!"

"The Great King doesn't need to send many people, just five thousand men to cut off Han Xin's supply line!"

He said.

And when these words were spoken, many Xiongnu generals were shocked and admired!

Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu and Xiang Yu were even more excited!

Especially Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu; the look in his eyes when he looked at Fan Zeng was simply full of worship!

At that moment, he actually grabbed Fan Zeng's arm, swallowed his saliva, and said: "Gentleman... quick... quick, take a seat!"

He shouted, pulling Fan Zeng to a stone and letting him sit down.

At this very moment, he even wanted to beg Fan Zeng to stay by his side!

A great talent!

What is a great talent?

This is a great talent!

He was even fantasizing that if this person stayed by his side, why worry about not achieving hegemony?

Why worry about not invading the Central Plains?

Li Li Yuanba?

Li Li Yuanba is a fart!

Han Xin?

Han Xin is a fart!

Even Wang Wang Jian of the Central Plains is not worth mentioning in front of him!

With Fan Zeng, plus the incredibly fierce Xiongnu cavalry, plus a fierce general like Xiang Yu, he could invade the Central Plains and dominate the world!

He was extremely excited and agitated!

At that moment, he held Fan Zeng's hand tightly and began to ask questions!

Of course, in the process, he didn't neglect Xiang Yu.

This person was also a fierce general!

His military talent was truly unparalleled!

If he could get the help of Fan Zeng and Xiang Yu, why worry about not achieving hegemony!

Why worry about not achieving hegemony!
