"What?"

"Coming again?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Fu Su trembled all over.

Meng Wu and Meng Tian looked toward Fu Su!

The biggest problem now is whether to open the city gates!

"Open it; the last time was to return to the Qin State, this time, it should be to return to the grassland to continue fighting!"

Meng Tian said!

Meng Wu nodded along!

However... at this moment, Fu Su, who was still panicking just now, waved his hand to interrupt, pondered for a long time, and said:

"If we set an ambush at the city gate, and cooperate with poison needles and poison arrows, we should be able to kill Li Li Yuanba!"

"What?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Meng Tian was stunned!

Meng Wu was also stunned!

They looked at Fu Su in disbelief, and at the same time, swallowed their saliva repeatedly!

Fu Su's eyes showed excitement: "If we succeed, then we will no longer fear Ying Su!"

Meng Tian swallowed his saliva and said: "Then... what if we fail?"

"Who can stop a crazed Li Li Yuanba?"

Meng Wu also nodded: "Yes, who can stop Li Li Yuanba?"

"If he goes crazy, the five hundred and fifty thousand people in the city might all die!"

"This..."

Fu Su frowned fiercely; at this moment, he was calculating, but before he could finish thinking, suddenly, another soldier came to report:

"General Wang Ben opened the city gate, and Li Li Yuanba has already left!"

"Phew..."

As soon as the words were spoken, Meng Tian let out a long sigh of relief, and Meng Wu also let out a long sigh of relief!

Only Fu Su's face showed a trace of regret!

Finally, he could only sigh, "What a pity!"

"Young Master, there is nothing to regret; if it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time!"

Meng Wu said.

Meng Tian also comforted him!

Finally, the two bowed to Fu Su and left one after another!

At night, in Meng Wu's room!

Meng Wu was just about to rest, but at this time, Meng Tian's voice came from outside the door:

"Father!"

"Hmm?"

Meng Wu responded, then opened the door and looked at Meng Tian: "What's wrong?"

Meng Tian said nothing, walked straight into the room, and poured himself a cup of tea!

After drinking it in one gulp, he asked Meng Wu:

"In Father's opinion, how is the Xiongnu war situation? Can Ying Su really destroy the Xiongnu?"

"Eh?"

As soon as the question was asked, Meng Wu was stunned, then sighed:

"Does that even need to be said? It's already this late; the Xiongnu must be defeated, and it's really possible they will all be killed!"

As he spoke, he looked at the map on the wall!

This map was the full map of the Xiongnu!

He pointed to the southern boundary line on the map and said:

"If the Xiongnu run into the Han Sea, there is no food or water there; hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people entering there is just seeking their own death!"

"The Xiongnu's only way to survive is to enter the Snow Mountain!"

"But... the Snow Mountain is steep, stretching for nearly a thousand miles; how easy is it to cross the Snow Mountain?"

"Han Xin driving them here is truly vicious!"

"But... if I were in Chanyu Modu's position, besides this place, I wouldn't know where to flee either!"

Meng Wu sighed again.

Meng Tian listened quietly, saying nothing!

After a long time, he said to Meng Wu:

"If the Xiongnu are destroyed, then Ying Su will definitely pass through Yan Sect Pass on his way back to Xianyang; at that time, should we open the pass and let him through?"

"Hmm?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Meng Wu was stunned, then frowned! He closed his eyes!

Meng Tian continued:

"Ying Su has two fierce generals, Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao, under his command; Li Li Yuanba alone can fight at least five hundred thousand people, and if you add Li Li Cunxiao, the two of them together can fight at least one million!"

"These two alone are so hard to stop, not to mention Han Xin's hundred-thousand-strong army, and even... that kind of weapon called artillery!"

"With all this, if our five hundred and fifty thousand troops try to stop them by force, what are our chances of winning?"

"Moreover, we have Wang Ben beside us?"

"Undoubtedly, he supports Ying Su; once the critical moment comes, if he turns against us, at that time, he can take away at least two hundred thousand people!"

"And our three hundred and fifty thousand troops against Ying Su, what are our chances of winning?"

"Besides that, there is the problem of food and supplies; if Ying Su really wants to annihilate us, I think he doesn't even need to send an army; he only needs to give Xiao He a secret decree, telling him not to send food here anymore, and we will only have the fate of starving to death!"

Meng Tian spoke repeatedly.

And when these words reached Meng Wu's ears, Meng Wu couldn't help but gasp again!

Finally, he looked at Meng Tian and began to wave his hand: "No need to say more!"

"Father..."

Meng Tian was a bit anxious; he just wanted to say something!

Meng Wu waved his hand to interrupt him: "No need to say more; I understand what you mean; all you want to say is that if we oppose Ying Su, we are seeking our own death!"

Meng Tian nodded frantically: "That is exactly what I mean!"

Meng Wu said angrily: "If we surrender, what will happen to Young Master Fu Su?"

"This..."

As soon as the words were spoken, Meng was stunned!

At this moment, he couldn't help but frown.

He began to ponder Meng Wu's words!

Yes, if they surrender, what will happen to Young Master Fu Su?

If Ying Zheng is still alive, it's easy to say, but after Ying Zheng dies?

Will Ying Su let Young Master Fu Su go?

His eyebrows were very furrowed!

Meng Wu waved his hand and said: "It's not just the problem of Young Master Fu Su, it's also ourselves!"

"Try to think, if you were the Emperor, would you keep a traitor who disobeyed the decree?"

"Would you keep a close minister of a prince who has the most hope of becoming the Emperor?"

"Or, would you plant a poison thorn by your side?"

"No!"

"If it were me, I wouldn't; not only would I not, but any emperor wouldn't!"

"Even if the positions were swapped, and Fu Su and Ying Su were swapped, I would still advise Fu Su to kill Ying Su, even if he didn't want to kill him, even if he remembered old feelings, I would still kill him!"

"There is no way; an emperor never kills based on loyalty, treachery, good, or evil, nor personal preference, but based on the degree of danger that person poses!"

"Fu Su, the eldest prince; his prestige in the Great Qin is second only to the First Emperor Ying Zheng!"

"Even... there are many people who do not obey the First Emperor, but there is no one who does not obey Fu Su!"

"Many people are scolding the First Emperor for being cruel, but when the whole world mentions Fu Su, who doesn't have to give a thumbs up and praise him for being merciful?"
