Chapter 107 Rejecting the Enemy Outside the Country
Meng Tian, who was fighting with the Huns cavalry, suddenly heard the sound of piercing through the air behind him.
Looking at it with fixed eyes, I saw several arrows with a cold light coming rapidly.
Ah ~!
There was a scream, and several Hun soldiers who besieged him fell to the ground with arrows.
Whoosh whoosh~!
Immediately afterwards, there were several sounds of piercing through the air, followed by more Hun cavalrymen falling off their horses.
After Yanmen closed, Ying Yu shot and killed nearly a hundred people in just a moment.
Meng Tian stared dumbfounded at this scene.
With Ying Yu's sharp shot as a cover, Meng Tian returned to Yanmen Pass without any danger.
But the cavalry of the Qin army who came out with him were not so lucky.
Although the Daqin iron cavalry is brave, the number of enemy troops is too many.
Of the 5000 people who finally came back, only less than [-].
This was the result of Ying Yu's decisive retreat, otherwise the 5000 men would have been wiped out.
It wasn't until Ying Yu and Meng Tian retreated to Yanmen Pass that Fusu on the city wall heaved a sigh of relief.
Looking at the Xiongnu cavalry below the city, Fusu sneered, "Fire the arrows!"
With a single order, all arrows were fired.
After several rounds of arrow rain, the Hun cavalry who rushed out retreated into the army formation after leaving behind thousands of corpses.
Seeing this, King Zuoluli secretly thought it was a pity, and then he had no choice but to order the army to retreat.
Here Ying Yu and Meng Tian had just entered Yanmen Pass when Fu Su brought people over.
"Haha, after being separated for so many years, I didn't expect the sixth brother to become so brave."
Ying Yu looked at Fusu who was wearing white clothes and smiling, nodded slightly, and then bowed.
"Yes, brother!"
Fusu stepped forward, held Ying Yu's hands, and said loudly:
"There's no need to be too polite. You and I haven't seen each other for several years. It's rare to get together today. Let's go back to the barracks and talk about it."
The young master is unparalleled in the jade world, so I'm afraid he is talking about people like Fusu.
Fusu gives people the impression that a humble gentleman is as gentle as jade.
But it gave Ying Yu a very special and strange feeling.
Although it looks enthusiastic, Ying Yu always feels that this enthusiasm is not so pure.
For this nominal elder brother, Ying Yu didn't have any troubles in his heart.
He believed the same was true for Fusu.
Soon a group of people came to the camp.
"Sixth brother, how is Father's health recently?"
As soon as everyone was seated, Fusu asked with concern.
Ying Yu lowered his head slightly: "Don't worry, brother, Father has always been in good health."
"That's fine, that's fine."
Fusu heaved a sigh of relief, and then continued:
"By the way, sixth brother, why did you come to Yanmen? Does Emperor Father know?"
Ying Yu chuckled at this, and told everyone that I sneaked out without hiding anything.
"Sixth brother, you are truly unique."
"Brother, there are many opportunities to reminisce about the past. Let's talk about how to defeat the enemy."
After the words fell, Ying Yu didn't give Fu Su a chance to continue speaking.
Instead, he told the story of Mao Dun.
"What? You mean, Feng'an was massacred by the Huns?"
As soon as Ying Yu finished speaking, a general of the Qin Army in the tent asked with red eyes.
"Indeed."
Hearing this, the general sat down on the ground directly, tears welling up in his eyes.
Seeing this, Meng Tian on the side sighed helplessly:
"Forgive me, the two sons, but Sun Jin is from Feng'an City, and his whole family is in Feng'an City."
Ying Yu was slightly stunned, looked at Sun Jin who was sitting on the ground crying, and opened his mouth to say something.
But in the end there was still no sound.
"When I came, the [-] troops led by General Wang Ben had already arrived in Shangjun. Calculate the distance and they should arrive tomorrow."
Meng Tian nodded slightly: "In this way, it will not be a problem to resist the Huns' attack."
Ying Yu frowned slightly and looked at Meng Tian.
"General Meng Tian, I don't agree with your opinion."
"In my opinion, offense is the best defense. Only by holding the initiative in your own hands and keeping the enemy out of the country in the future can you win the greatest victory with the least casualties."
"General Meng Tian, what do you think?"
Meng Tian was stunned.
He didn't expect that apart from his personal bravery, this sixth son would have such insights.
Why did Daqin build the Great Wall?
Its purpose is to keep these prairie barbarians out of the country, and then wait for an opportunity to find a fighter.
"What the young master said, the general will admire."
Meng Tian saluted respectfully, then changed the topic:
"Although offense is the best defense."
"Although these prairie barbarians are not as good as my Great Qin soldiers in a head-to-head confrontation, they have an inherent advantage."
"That is, there is no shortage of war horses at all. There are countless war horses in the vast grassland."
"My Daqin border guards have many infantry, even if they are not afraid of cavalry collision, it is difficult to keep them."
"In this case, sticking to the city is the best choice."
After Meng Tian finished speaking, he looked at Ying Yu.
In his opinion, although the sixth son is brave, it would be too immature to lead troops to fight.
No one has as many cavalry, and no one has good riding skills. Taking the initiative to attack can only damage soldiers and generals, so it is better to stick to the city.
"General Meng Tian is right. The vast grassland is more than ten thousand miles away. If you take the initiative to attack a little carelessly, the whole army may be wiped out."
After Fusu finished speaking, she looked at Ying Yu with a smile on her face.
Ying Yu smiled lightly.
Judging from the current situation, what Meng Tian said was absolutely correct.
But that was without the horse three-piece suit and grassland terrain map.
"General Meng Tian, take the initiative to attack, this is also the meaning of the father."
"Father also said that the Xiongnu will be destroyed in a single battle."
Ying Yu looked at Meng Tian and Fu Su with a smile.
As soon as these words came out, Meng Tian was stunned.
What do you mean?
Your Majesty, old man, are you not confused?
You can't even catch up with them, and you are wiped out in one battle. This is the rhythm of going to heaven.
Meng Tian's first reaction was disbelief.
In his opinion, His Majesty the First Emperor, who is wise and mighty, would definitely not be able to make such an absurd decision.
Seeing this, Ying Yu didn't want to argue with him anymore.
So he told everyone about the three-piece suit of war horses and the world map.
Meng Tian was stunned again.
"Sixth Young Master, is what you said just now true?"
Ying Yu was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with him, and directly took out a topographic map of the grassland from his arms.
This grassland topographic map was prepared before he left Xianyang.
The same Han Xin and Wang Ben both have a copy.
"This is the topographic map of the grassland, General Meng Tian, please take a look."
"This is impossible."
Meng Tian subconsciously blurted out.
How could Meng Tian, who is a great general, not know the importance of the map.
Ever since he was stationed at the northern border, Meng Tian has always arranged for manpower to enter the grassland to investigate.
However, the gains over the years have been minimal.
After all, the looks of the Huns and the Qin people are too different.
Qin scouts couldn't even get into the depths of the grassland, let alone a map.
But now Ying Yu told him that what he was holding was a topographic map of the grassland.
In Meng Tian's view, this is simply impossible.
