Given the character of the Huns, they would definitely not turn a blind eye after discovering the valley and Xuanhuang Village.
Yi Tianxing had already guessed from the words of a group of people before. Liu Bao was so cruel that he would not tolerate rebellion or slaves escaping and living freely. In addition, during the riot, the military camps were set on fire. Even if the fire could be put out, most of the military camps would be destroyed, and most of the fortifications would be destroyed.
As long as the message is passed on, Liu Bao will definitely gather his troops and come to the valley.
After all, under normal circumstances, it would be easy for an elite Hun army to destroy a small village. No force could stop the charge of the Hun cavalry, especially for a simple small village. It was simply a piece of fat meat on the chopping board. With the wolf nature of the Huns, it was impossible for them to give up and turn a blind eye.
The Huns will definitely come.
Since they are coming, Yi Tianxing will naturally prepare a top-notch meal for them.
"My Lord, do you have any ideas?"
Huang Chengyan saw it and immediately asked.
He was a Confucianist, but not a strategist. He was not particularly good at battlefield strategies. Compared with the several geniuses he knew, he was nothing. However, although he could not influence the battle situation strategically, he still had a trump card in his hand. His vision was also unmatched by ordinary people.
It was obvious from Yi Tianxing's expression that he already had some ideas in mind.
He also wanted to see if Yi Tianxing had any strategic ability. If he did, his future achievements would be even more immeasurable.
"Well, Mr. Huang, I have never led a troop, nor have I participated in a large-scale war. All I have are some half-baked ideas. At best, they are just theoretical talks. Let me first tell you what I think. If there is anything wrong, feel free to point it out."
Yi Tianxing spoke.
In the past, when I was bored, I did read quite a few books, modern and ancient, including the Four Books and Five Classics of China, various Taoist scriptures and Taoist Canons, and even various Thatched Cottage Notes, Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, Thirty-Six Strategies, The Art of War, The Art of Thick Black Studies, etc.
Although there are many things that he has not studied seriously, in the era of information explosion, he can understand a little bit even if he does not understand. In terms of vision, perspective, and even the expansion of thinking, he believes that he is not worse than anyone else, and even exceeds the previous historical strategists. At least, in some aspects, he has an advantage, but the strategies of those top strategists cannot be denied.
What makes them strong is not those rigid strategies, but their own strong wisdom, intelligence and IQ.
Any strategy has flaws, but strong intelligence allows them to adapt to the situation, completely cover up all the flaws, and ultimately make the strategy achieve its goal. This is the real strength of the top strategists, not like ordinary strategists who only know how to copy strategies, memorize them by rote, and talk about them on paper. That is a paper tiger that will break with a single poke. It cannot withstand the test of actual combat.
Otherwise, with so many military books, why are there only a few who can become top strategists? The key is whether you can adapt to local conditions.
"My lord, please speak up." Huang Chengyan became even more curious when he heard this.
To become a strategist on the battlefield, one must have a vision beyond the ordinary and a different thinking ability. Only in this way can one achieve unexpected results and play the most important role.
Even Cai Yan felt strong curiosity and interest.
I want to hear what good methods Yi Tianxing can come up with at this moment to resist the invasion of the Huns.
Once the Huns come, it will definitely be a brutal battle.
"I have observed that there is only one entrance to the valley, which is the long canyon. The canyon is like a mountain split in half, and only this road can lead into the valley. In other words, if this canyon is guarded, the Hun army will not be able to enter the valley. To a certain extent, the enemy can be blocked outside. This is not difficult. All we need to do is block the exit with big rocks."
Yi Tianxing spoke.
This method can be said to be the simplest method. To a certain extent, the Huns cannot enter the valley, at least not in a short period of time. In this way, the village can be guaranteed to be safe and will not face the Hun army directly. But this is only the most passive way.
"Of course, blocking the enemy from entering the gate also means completely closing off our way to the outside world. Moreover, the enemy is the Huns. What I want to do is to bury them here completely. I want this place to become the grave of those Huns."
After knowing that the Huns were cannibals, he had no intention of letting them go easily. If possible, no one could survive and all of them would be killed. They would be completely slaughtered here.
"My lord, do you have any good ideas?" Yang Ye had also arrived here and asked.
"The strongest point of the Xiongnu is horseback archery. They are a nation that grew up on horseback. As long as they are men, there is no one who can't ride a horse and shoot arrows. This is inherited from their bones. They have a natural talent for horseback archery. As long as their horseback archery ability is restricted, the strength of the Xiongnu army can be reduced by half. Although we have the city wall to protect us, the Xiongnu cavalry's archery skills and large numbers can pose a huge threat and lethality to the city wall. If we can prevent them from getting close, we will not let them get close."
Yi Tianxing said slowly: "My idea is to first strip away the Xiongnu's cavalry advantage. Cavalry needs to be on the plains to exert its true lethality. We can do this..."
Yi Tianxing immediately expressed his thoughts.
That method was not very sophisticated, it could even be said to be very simple. But when Huang Chengyan and Yang Ye heard it, they felt that their eyes lit up, and they felt that this method was very feasible. It was worth a try. Once it was really successful, the Xiongnu's most powerful cavalry method would be completely wiped out, and they would be transformed from cavalry to infantry. One's strength could only be exerted at 50% out of 100%.
It was of great help in killing the Huns.
Afterwards, Yi Tianxing went on to say other methods.
Yang Ye kept nodding beside him, carefully calculating the feasibility.
Cai Yan was standing aside, but her eyes were full of brilliance, and her gaze towards Yi Tianxing began to become a little different. Confident men often have a unique charm. This kind of charm is very lethal to women.
Not long after, after several replenishments.
Then, a large number of people, led by Yang Ye, quickly left the village and headed outside, with all kinds of tools in their hands.
As for Cai Yan, Yi Tianxing spoke and directly settled her in the mansion where he lived. Huang Chengyan also lived in this mansion. No one would say anything after she moved in.
Cai Yan did not refuse this.
... ... ... ... ... ... .
Hun camp.
A big fire filled the military camp with the smell of gunpowder and most of the fortifications were completely burned to ruins. A large number of Xiongnu corpses were carried out from the ruins. Some were even burned to ash. Some people took knockout drugs and fell asleep in the tents. They were not awakened by the fighting outside and burned to death in the flames.
Some were killed directly in the riots.
The number is not small at all.
"Lord Zuo, the statistics are basically out. In this riot, more than 1,500 soldiers were killed or injured. They were all caught off guard and died. Some were burned to death. They were poisoned before, probably some kind of drug. Their strength was greatly reduced."
A soldier came forward to report.
Liu Bao's face darkened when he heard the number of more than a thousand Xiongnu soldiers. In this world, if one Xiongnu soldier dies, one less will be left. The senior forces will also be reduced. Unless they find a precious place to recuperate, otherwise, this loss cannot be made up in a short time.
"Those damn two-legged sheep have chased and killed so many of them." Liu Bao said coldly.
"It was too late and dark outside. Those people ran very fast and in batches, which dispersed the pursuit team. However, some of them were shot dead. But the female slaves committed suicide when they were about to be caught. Not a single one survived."
Someone answered.
The impact this time was truly enormous.
However, once those women were caught, they all knew that their fate would be extremely miserable, so none of them was prepared to live, and they committed suicide without hesitation, fearing that they would suffer such a terrible fate while still alive.
"Hmph, it's too easy for them to die." Liu Bao sneered with a malicious look.
“Report!!”
Just then, a shout was heard.
All I saw was a Hun soldier covered in blood being quickly brought over.
"Reporting to King Zuo Xian, we chased those slaves into a valley. That valley is the one you are looking for. There is a village in it, which is a Han village. Those slaves escaped into that village. After discovering the situation, we immediately came back to report. However, we encountered a ferocious beast on the way. The other two brothers used their lives to lure the beast away, so that I could come back to report. This is the map, and the marks have been left before. Follow the marks to find the valley."
After the soldier finished speaking, he could no longer hold on and fell to the ground, breathing his last.
He had been seriously injured by the beast before. It was not easy for him to survive until now.
"We actually found that valley, and there is a Han village in it."
When Liu Bao heard this, a flash of excitement flashed across his eyes, and the gloom in his eyes was swept away immediately. In his mind, that valley was the supreme treasure land for the Xiongnu to thrive. He didn't expect to find it at this time.
This was such a pleasant surprise.
"Notify everyone to cook the bodies of the slaves so that everyone can have a good meal. Then the army will march out. We have finally found the valley where we, the Xiongnu, thrive and multiply. We are going to... conquer it!!"
Liu Bao laughed loudly while looking up to the sky. (To be continued.)
