Chapter 210

~7 min read 1,383 words

However, just as Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu had predicted, this attempt was a complete failure!

It was even... not something that could be described as failure, but a crushing defeat!

How crushing?

Because... as soon as that pit was dug, Yan Fei immediately began using illusion techniques to seduce Li Yuanba!

The result was... success!

But... what she attracted was a Li Yuanba covered head to toe in copper armor!

Even... his face was protected by beast skin!

This was Han Xin's protection for Li Yuanba.

In Han Xin's view, Li Yuanba was already invincible in terms of personal martial prowess!

But he still had weaknesses: he feared poison and hidden weapons!

Thus, a suit of armor was specially found for Li Yuanba: copper on the outside, leather on the inside!

In this way, it could not only prevent blades but also stop poison from entering!

Whenever Li Yuanba went on campaign, he would wear such a suit of armor to ensure absolute safety!

Therefore, this operation was a complete and utter crushing defeat!

Not only did they fail to kill Li Yuanba, but he also killed everyone responsible for digging the pit and keeping watch!

And Han Xin took this opportunity to directly seize control of the entire Azha Guhe!

He then blocked the Azha Guhe, cutting off all water flow south of the Azha Guhe!

Forcing all the Xiongnu people south of the Azha Guhe to migrate.

And this was Han Xin's plan to destroy the Xiongnu people.

By blocking the river, driving all the Xiongnu people north!

When there was no retreat left, the great final battle would arrive!

Ten thousand people slaughtering six million Xiongnu!

103. One day, the Xiongnu iron cavalry will trample the Central Plains!

"Everyone, at this point, what more is there to say?"

The grasslands!

Inside Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu's camp!

Today, facing a group of experts from the Central Plains, Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu abandoned his previous calm and courtesy!

Instead, his gaze became cold and piercing, his killing intent overwhelming!

Because, just today, the Dongjun of the Yin-Yang School returned.

And she brought back not only the news of the failed attempt to bury Li Yuanba alive, but also the news that the entire Azha Guhe had been lost.

Upon hearing this news, everyone was instantly shocked.

Some Xiongnu ministers even slammed their hands on the table and stood up, pointing at Dongjun and shouting angrily: "Are you Central Plains people doing this on purpose?"

"What?"

The moment those words left her mouth, Yan Fei flew into a rage; at this moment, her eyes were filled with boundless killing intent!

A Xiongnu minister said: "You claimed you could bury Li Yuanba alive; although our Great King thought it unreliable, we still gave you the chance to try!"

"But... even if you failed to kill Li Yuanba, why did you cause us to lose the entire Azha Guhe!"

"Do you know what the entire Azha Guhe means?"

"It is the entire region south of the Xiongnu!"

"Now, such a vast region has been lost simply because your assassination of Li Yuanba failed!"

"Are you doing this on purpose?"

"Are you spies sent by the Central Plains' Facing Ying Su?"

Some Xiongnu ministers roared in anger!

And the moment those words were spoken, Yan Fei was utterly enraged, and countless Central Plains people were even more furious!

In that instant, both sides were tense with drawn swords; the Xiongnu ministers and the Central Plains experts argued uncontrollably!

The Central Plains experts believed the Xiongnu were incompetent, with hundreds of thousands of troops driven to flee in panic by mere tens of thousands!

Others even believed that the Xiongnu losing such a vast territory had nothing to do with them, since before the operation, no one had ever said this battle concerned all the territory south of the Azha Guhe!

Everyone was furious; everyone was arguing!

And during the argument, some had even begun to draw their swords!

At this critical moment, Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu finally stepped forward; first waving his hand, he angrily scolded the Xiongnu ministers:

"The region south of the Azha Guhe was already the most barren place for the Xiongnu; losing this piece of land is fine. Is it worth suspecting our allies over such a small piece of land?"

Having said that, he bowed deeply to the Central Plains experts and said: "This matter is indeed our fault; we did not make it clear beforehand how important the region south of the Azha Guhe is to us!"

"But now, there is no time for all this; a great enemy is at our gates, and we all share a common foe!"

"Now, killing Li Yuanba is the most important thing!"

"What do you say?"

After speaking, he looked at everyone present!

Seeing that neither side spoke, and countless Central Plains people lowered their heads.

In that instant, the corner of Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu's mouth curled slightly!

As expected!

My guess was correct!

The only way to change the arrogance of these people is to let them fail once.

Only by letting them taste defeat will they understand how difficult it is to kill Li Yuanba!

And without a doubt, this scene today was orchestrated by him.

It is to make them take this matter seriously.

As for the land south of Guhe?

That territory was lost long ago; in his military deployment, that land was definitely to be abandoned!

Otherwise, his forces would be picked off one by one by Han Xin's great army!

The most urgent task is to gather all the tribespeople of the grasslands!

Because, whether fighting or fleeing, preserving strength is the most important thing!

With people, one has everything!

And using such a inevitably lost territory to teach these experts from the Central Plains a lesson, making them feel a sense of guilt, is absolutely worth it!

He felt pleased in his heart, and then looked at everyone present!

"Everyone, now is not the time to argue; speak your own ideas, express your own views, and let us discuss together how to eliminate this great enemy, Li Yuanba!"

He spoke again.

However, this time, neither the side of the Central Plains experts nor the side of the Xiongnu ministers spoke!

As for the Xiongnu side, they truly had no good methods!

Han Xin has entered the grasslands for nearly two months; if there were any good methods, they would have been spoken long ago!

As for the side of the Central Plains experts, the situation was more complex.

On one hand, there truly were no good methods; even Yan Fei's illusion technique had failed, and others really had no good solutions.

After all, that was a fierce man capable of killing hundreds of thousands with his own hands!

And even those with ideas would not speak, because even if they wanted to kill Li Yuanba, they did not want to exert their full strength; at this moment, whoever proposed a plan would, without a doubt, face the cost of exerting full strength!

Yan Fei's failure this time was not merely a failure, but a loss of dozens of people from the Yin-Yang School!

Everyone's thoughts were different.

And Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu saw all of this clearly.

After pondering for a moment, he spoke: "Regarding the matter of Li Yuanba, I currently have two plans!"

"First, we Xiongnu people plus you experts will rush forward together, surround Han Xin's hundred thousand troops including Li Yuanba, and engage in a hard, head-on great battle!"

"If we win, Li Yuanba dies, Han Xin's hundred thousand troops are annihilated, we Xiongnu achieve a great victory, your Central Plains people achieve the purpose of this journey, and even, I can help you overthrow this new Emperor, Facing Ying Su!"

"Even, we can help you Central Plains people force the First Emperor to implement the feudal system; once all this is over, we Xiongnu people will retreat to the grasslands, and from then on, the Central Plains continent and the grassland tribes will be friendly for generations, never infringing upon each other!"

"Second, it is still us Xiongnu people plus you Central Plains experts, but this time, there will be a division of labor!"
