Chapter 1466

"Crossing the Great Wall from Pingcheng Pass, below is the Mayi Plain, where even hundreds of thousands of cavalry can deploy."

"This is the most favorable combat area for the Xiongnu and Xianbei cavalry."

"According to Wenhe's meaning, if we want to solve these nearly one hundred thousand Xiongnu and Xianbei cavalry in one battle, it is definitely unrealistic in the open field."

"Our strength is only thirty thousand; even adding Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, it is only sixty thousand troops. It is impossible to completely annihilate these one hundred thousand Xiongnu and Xianbei cavalry in the open field."

"Then there is only one way: lure them into the city!"

Li Ru's finger poked fiercely at Mayi, the seat of Yanmen Commandery and also the largest city in Yanmen Commandery, and a look of ruthlessness appeared at the corner of his eyes.

"Lure them into Mayi City; only in this way can we trap them to death in Mayi City."

What Li Ru said was what Jia Xu thought.

Simply put, it was only four words: gather and annihilate them.

But it was easy to say, but not so easy to act.

One hundred thousand aliens.

Entering Mayi City.

One can imagine what kind of purgatory scene the city would become.

If the world knew about this battle, this use of the people of a city to lure the enemy, it would certainly leave a name in history; of course, it would be infamy.

Because most of the people would not understand the meaning of doing this.

Xiongnu, Xianbei, Qiang, Xiutu... and so on.

The harm caused to the Han people by these alien tribes over hundreds of years is definitely not comparable to the number of people in a city.

For these hundreds, or even thousands of years, the harm caused to the Han people by these aliens, and the price paid by the Han people to resist and pacify these aliens, are incalculable.

But the people will not understand this.

This is what Jia Xu said, not wanting Duan Yu to bear the infamy.

This is the best way, but there must be trade-offs.

If this order was issued by Duan Yu, then the people of Bingzhou would resent Duan Yu.

Therefore, it is best not to let Duan Yu know. When the time comes, the ones bearing the infamy will be Jia Xu, Li Ru, and Cheng Yu, but it will definitely not be Duan Yu.

The duties of those famous scholars and Confucians in the world will also not aim their spears at Duan Yu.

Li Ru and Jia Xu looked at each other, and both saw the taste of a soulmate in each other's eyes.

"Since it is to lure the enemy, naturally there must be a fragrant bait. The people of this city are clearly not enough."

Cheng Yu, who was to the side, spoke.

"Since that is the case, then let me do it."

Cheng Yu stopped his sturdy body and said: "To lure Yu Fuluo and others into the city, how can there be no Liangzhou troops? Since there are troops, there must be a commander. You two have already given the ideas, so don't fight with me; just let me do it!"
