Yuanhe laughed: "Five hundred thousand troops? You are so angry. Our northern country has only one million troops in total. You have spent 500,000 at once. If you fail, wouldn't everyone be finished?"
Wang Su was speechless for a moment. After all, he was a civil official and had no experience in sending troops alone on a large scale.
Emperor Hongwen asked: "Yuanhe, do you think, if you send troops, how many soldiers can win?"
"Back to the emperor, Ge Qiang is a bandit, but he is just a mud-legged man. What kind of climate can he become? I will lead 7,000 troops to ensure that Ge Qiang is defeated."

Three moves.”
"What three tricks?"
"The first move is to seduce the enemy. When I arrive at the front line, I will not fight head-on, but lead the army to attack, raise huge smoke and dust, giving the enemy the illusion of being under a million troops, and first shock them psychologically; the second move,
Capturing the thief first, the king was captured. The slaves had not been trained and did not know how to arrange troops and arrange formations. The tents would naturally not be very strong. I led all the main forces and attacked Ge Qiang's tent at that time. As long as you catch Ge Qiang first, the others
Naturally, the tree falls and scatters and loses its combat effectiveness;
