Shan was the supreme leader of the Xiongnu since the beginning of Touman.

At this time, Touman's status in the Xiongnu land was similar to that of the Emperor of Zhou in the Central Plains.

In name, Touman can manage all Xiongnu tribes, but in terms of actual control, except for the main Luuta tribe, which obeys Touman's orders at any time, other Xiongnu tribes are autonomous.

Of course, the Emperor of Zhou in Touman was King Wu of Zhou, the first emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, not the cowardly emperor of the Warring States Period.

Touman, who possesses absolute force, gave an order, and the leaders of all the major tribes came to the royal court for a meeting and listened to Touman's command.

As for the small and medium-sized tribes, Touman had no time to take care of them. Touman's eyes had always been on the large tribes that could field 20,000 warriors.

It's not that Touman has never had an idea of ​​these small and medium-sized tribes, but when his people went to the tribal areas they had controlled for the second time, they either couldn't find the people or found that they had been replaced by another tribe, and they had to re-communicate.

After ten times in a row, Touman gave up.

Can't control it, can't control it.

The Xiongnu herded cattle and sheep, chased water and grass, and had no fixed place to live.

The living environment of small and medium-sized tribes is poor. It is common for them to attack and annex each other in order to survive. Updates and changes are too fast.

If these two problems are not solved, even if you sit in the position of Shan Yu, you will not be able to control the countless small and medium-sized tribes.

The Taotie Army marched from Gaoque City to the desert, under the banner of Prince Moton's army. Along the way, the small and medium-sized tribes who could not enter the depths of the desert sent grain and grass to the Taotie Army. Touman was unexpected and uninformed.

He was a Chanyu of the Xiongnu, but he didn't know the needs of the vast number of small and medium-sized tribes, let alone how dirty the hearts of the people in the Central Plains were.

War is not just a horse-riding charge between Xiongnu tribes...

"The first step is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the army, and the third is to attack the city. Xiaoer has mastered the essence of "Sun Tzu's Art of War". It is no wonder that the arrogant Li Mu is willing to be his disciple."

Among the Taotie troops who had been besieged for two days, General Meng Wu held a telescope and, under the protection of his guards, observed the Huns' formation in the distance that had been guarded for two days.

Seeing that although the Huns were well-organized, they did not dare to take a step forward to narrow the encirclement, which was exactly what a certain Shuzi said, I couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of my heart.

After studying under Ren Tu Baiqi, he mainly learned field warfare and siege cities as a supplement, which is the last thing ranked in "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu.

Before this battle, Meng Wu's understanding of the conquest strategy in "Sun Tzu's Art of War" was: In the Battle of Changping, the Qin State used rebellion to ask Zhao State to exchange Zhao Kuo for Lian Po.

Qi Lian crossed the five kingdoms.

Meng Wu believed that whether it was conspiracy or friendship, it was something done by scholars outside the battlefield.

The Meng Wu family came out of the Meng family, the number one general in the Qin State. He studied under Bai Qi, who was ranked among the top three generals in ancient and modern times. He never thought that one day, he would see his general using his tactics to defeat enemies.

"Human thoughts are affected by the environment. Before I came, Shan was the co-lord of the Huns, and the environment of this desert was provided by him. After I came, the news that the Huns heard was the news that I wanted them to hear.

.What they see is what I let them see. So what the Huns think and do depends on me."

When a certain Shuzi said this, Meng Wu didn't believe it and thought it was bragging and exaggeration.

But when the Huns with eyes full of reverence and expectation kept coming to send cattle and sheep, the arrival of the Taotie Army, who should have hated it to the bone, was like worshiping the holy mountain Langjuxu Mountain.

Only then did Meng Wu realize that a certain Zhuzi was not only not exaggerating, but was actually a bit modest.

How is this changing one's mind? This is clearly brainwashing!

"Hmph, you kid doesn't know a lot. There is only one word difference between Chang'an and Wu'an."

Next to Meng Wu, the gray beard of veteran Wang Yan was raised upward.

Meng Wu laughed in his heart.

Xiao'er's fight indeed opened Wu's horizons, but he can't be compared with Wu Anjun.

As a descendant of an orthodox military strategist, although Meng Wu agreed with Ying Chengyu's tactics, deep down in his heart, Tu Baiqi, who killed half of the casualties in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, was the top military strategist.

With this thought in his heart, he, who had been protecting Wang Ye since his early years, did not say it out loud.

What's the point of arguing about this? Old man, just coax him.

"Young man has never been good at fighting. Without Uncle Wang and Mr. Wu'an who sincerely taught me how to become a general. A mediocre person like me is far behind Chang'an and Wu'an. If I could see the strategy between the two of them, I would have been superior."

General. Does Uncle Wang know where Xiao'er has gone? The army only has one day of food and grass left. The men can hold on, but the horses can't."

"Don't worry, someone will come to bring us food and grass."

Meng Wu smiled bitterly.

"Now that our army is besieged by the Huns, those Huns will not risk their lives to send us food and grass."

Although he didn't know how a certain prince managed to get the Huns to send food and fodder to the Taotie army. But after being silent in court for so many years, he had learned some scholarly principles.

The world is bustling for profit.

Meng Wu did not think that his great nephew could provide greater benefits than the lives of the Huns themselves.

"If the general says there is, then there is."

Wang Ye was extremely determined.

He only recognized two generals in his life, Wu'an and Chang'an. The two generals fought in completely different ways, two extremes.

Lord Wu'an is a man who crushes his opponents with an upright force, and even if the enemy loses, he is convinced that he has lost. Lord Chang'an, on the other hand, only takes the wrong path and does not follow the right path. When he wants the enemy to lose, he does not even know that he has lost.

But neither of them ever let him down, not only Wu'an but also Chang'an.

On the third day of the siege by the Taotie Army, flocks of sheep came from all directions. These flocks were food and grass transported by various large tribes.

The Taotie army wants to eat, and so does the Huns army.

The 170,000 Xiongnu soldiers ate horse chews, and the consumption was much greater than that of the Taotie army.

The Huns never had food carts in their battles. They always drove sheep to fight that they were reluctant to eat. Mutton and goat's milk were their best supplies.

"Isn't this coming?"

After receiving the report from the soldiers, Wang Yan said to himself and immediately ordered to summon all the generals.

In a short while, all four generals gathered together, two men and two women.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wusu, the forward general who leads the front army.

Liu Bang, the left-leaning general who led the left army.

Meng Wu, the right-leaning general leading the right army.

Yan is the rear guard general who leads the rear army.

The Chinese army was personally led by Wang Ye.

There is currently only one general who does not want to be protected by the Chinese army, Ying Chengyu.

Wang Ye first looked at his nephew Meng Wu, who knew everything in the field.

"Today we will start the breakout from the direction of the right army. Meng Wu, you will be the vanguard and take the lead. You must fight your way out."

Meng Wu responded in a deep voice:

"promise!"

"Wusu, Yan, you two will follow me. The two armies in front and behind will join the center army and follow the right army to charge."

The two girls, who were very self-aware, agreed crisply.

This is exactly what they want. If they are allowed to stay in their own army, they don't know how to command it.

"Liu Bang, the rear of your left army, please don't let the Hun dogs get up to our butts. Is there any problem?"

Today Liu Bang is serious and looks very handsome without any ruffians. Hearing this, he did not reply immediately. Instead, after thinking for a moment, he cupped his fists and said:

"Vice-General Wang, Bang is also with you."

The rear army just picks up heads when the wind is favorable and there is no danger.

But when the wind is against us, we shoulder the important task of reorganizing the military.

Most of the defeats are like a mountain falling, and the fate of the rear army is mostly to be smashed to pieces.

Wang Ye had always been unhappy with Liu Bang. This careless behavior was really unlike a soldier, so he immediately said in a bad tone:

"Do you think our army will be defeated?"

As long as Liu Bang dared to say yes, he would immediately win over Liu Bang's generals in the name of shaking the morale of the army.

If it weren't for the direct appointment of Ying Chengyu, he would directly kill Liu Bang in this name.

Liu Bang shook his head.

"Bang has never thought of this, but I have never commanded ten thousand people in combat. To be precise, this is the first time that Bang has actually commanded a corps in combat."

Wang Ye stared at Liu Bang's eyes, wanting to see Liu Bang's true thoughts through his eyes.

After watching for a long time, he only saw a calmness, as if the partial general was speaking from the bottom of his heart.

"Most of your left army is a veteran of many battles brought by the general from Yanmen. Is there any problem with you leading the army to the rear?"

"No!"

Liu Bang said simply and neatly, lowering his head and avoiding Wang Ye's sight.

I took the initiative to hand over power, but he didn't like it. It seemed that he took away Wusuyan's command just for the sake of victory...

"Today at dusk, all the remaining food and grass will be eaten. The men and horses will be full. At three o'clock in the morning, the right army will attack. This battle can only be successful, not failed. If you lose, you will die!"
To be continued...
