Eight hundred and thirty-fifth chapter military minister's idea
However, it was too late for the military ministers to dwell on this issue.
For the Huns Empire, the top priority was to rescue the besieged troops in the encirclement.
Tens of thousands of troops were lost at one time, including a headquarters of ten thousand cavalry.
This was an unprecedented disaster for the Huns!
If the encircled army cannot be rescued, the military ministers will not know how to explain it to other tribes!
Disasters of this level, on the grassland, have only been eradicated by blood since ancient times!
"King Hujie!" The military officials turned their thoughts back to reality, looked at King Hujie and his arrogant generals, and said: "I order you to go south immediately and surround the army with Xiutu and the Kunxie tribe.
The tribe of Donghu King Lu Tazhi!"
The military minister said in an extremely harsh and cold tone: "Kill all King Donghu and his tribe!"
"No dogs or chickens will be left except women and babies!"
Of course, the military officials knew that Lu Tazhi, the king of Donghu, might not really be helping the Han Dynasty.
But today's situation calls for bloodshed.
And there’s lots and lots of blood!
The military minister must tell his nobles and ministers that it is not just Shanyu who cannot do anything, but we have a traitor among us!
Everything was caused by King Donghu, a traitor who had no clue about the Han Dynasty!
He was the one who told the secret!
It was he who led the Huns' invincible cavalry into the Han army's trap!
He betrayed the Great Huns!
Let the Huns suffer heavy losses!
You can even fabricate how King Lu Tazhi of Donghu deliberately framed Zhelan, Loufan, Aries and King Youxian.
For example, it was Lu Tazhi who poisoned the fodder of King Zhelan's cavalry, which led to the defeat and destruction of the Zhelan tribe.
All in all, everything is a crime other than war.
It has nothing to do with his military officials!
This is all the fault of this crazy guy Lu Tazhi!
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, the military officials will believe it anyway.
The nobles from top to bottom of the Xiongnu would also believe it.
And telling this story to the cavalry and slaves below was not because the Huns were incompetent, but because they were betrayed by traitors!
The traitor betrayed our army's secrets and poisoned our army.
Our army suffered heavy losses and we all blamed King Donghu.
At that time, Lu Tazhi and his tribe were all dead.
Dead people cannot speak or protest.
In this way, even if the most terrible thing happens and the main force of the southern invasion is wiped out, Shan Yuting will still have someone to take the blame. At least, he will not be too passive!
But, this is not enough!
A Donghu king with only a few thousand tribesmen, obviously not qualified and capable, took the blame.
Military officials now need a more substantial and capable scapegoat to shoulder this responsibility.
"If Yin Zhi died in the Han Dynasty, it would be suitable for him..." the military minister thought in his heart.
If Yin Zhixie dies, he will certainly be the best person to take the blame.
You can accuse him of being arrogant, underestimating the enemy, being stupid and incompetent, etc.!
even……
It can also be said that in this southern invasion, Yin Zhixie falsely conveyed the imperial edict and secretly forged Shan Yuting's order, causing Zhelan, Loufan and Aiyang to suffer!
In this way, his responsibilities as a Chanyu will be cleared away.
At least, on the surface, he has no responsibility at all.
It's all the fault of Yin Zhixie and King Donghu!
But, what if Yin Zhixie is not dead?
Breaking out...
Then we can't let him take the blame.
The military ministers knew that they could lay many charges on a dead man, but it would be difficult for them to frame a Youxian King who escaped from the encirclement of the Han army alive.
It can’t be framed!
Because, by then, due to publicity needs, Yin Zhixie will be portrayed as a hero who is trapped in a tight siege but still fights hard.
Then who will take the pot?
King Zhelan was captured and seemed to be a good scapegoat.
However, let alone the military officials, even the slaves below would not believe it if he took the blame.
Moreover, the leader of the strongest tribe on our side is described as a stupid, incompetent and mediocre guy.
This can only increase the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige.
so……
The military minister's gaze paused for a moment on King Xiutu, making him feel very frightened.
If Yin Zhi successfully breaks through at an angle.
"I can only let you die!" the military minister thought in his heart.
At that time, King Xiutu will become the thief who colluded with King Donghu and betrayed the Huns for profit!
Moreover, you can kill two birds with one stone by doing this.
This can not only be used to attack those tribes that are too closely related to Yin Zhixie and warn them, but it can also deter the tribes in the south of the curtain so that they do not dare to get too close to the Han Dynasty!
Thinking of this, the military minister said again: "King Xiutu, please immediately send someone to Yunzhong County of the Han Dynasty to submit this Shanyu's credentials to the emperor of the Han Dynasty!"
Today, Yin Zhixie is besieged in Mayi.
Judging from the time, his tribe and army should have run out of ammunition and food and prepare to break out.
The military ministers understood that the main purpose of leading the main force of Shan Yuting southward was to meet the Xiongnu army that might break out of the encirclement, and at the same time frighten other armies of the Han Dynasty so that they did not dare to act rashly.
However, if Yin Zhixie's entire army is wiped out in Mayi.
So……
"This Chanyu must bring back the prisoners!" the military officials thought in their hearts.
Only by getting the captured troops back can he know what happened outside Mayi City and Wuzhou Wall?
What tricks did the hussar general and his army who appeared out of nowhere in the Han Dynasty actually defeat the invincible Zhelan cavalry head-on?
If this matter is not clear, the Huns will suffer losses in the future!
Moreover, this is also related to the question of how the Mayi War will end.
To be fair, the Xiongnu army sought death and ran to Mayi, where they were completely wiped out by the Han army in the wild.
This is deserved!
However, nomads are never unreasonable!
What's more, this is true for agricultural and civilized countries!
What's the point?
Two thousand years later, there are three truths and cute little mushrooms in the hands of the five gangsters.
Before that, it was within cannon range.
Nowadays, the truth lies within the range of bows and arrows and the number of cavalry.
The military ministers were still very confident about the numerical superiority of the Huns' cavalry!
If the emperor of the Han Dynasty did not give him this face, it would be equivalent to not being able to reason with him.
Then he had to use reason to stir up chaos in the entire Northern Great Wall of the Han Dynasty.
Even if we are fighting at the foot of the Great Wall, we will consume each other!
No matter how strong the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty was and no matter how well-defended it was, there would always be omissions and breaches in its thousands of miles of defense.
Even if he suffered heavy losses, the military officials would also let the Han Dynasty know that he was not someone to be trifled with!
The military officials didn't believe it.
His cavalry consumption was high, but the consumption of the Han Dynasty army's confrontation was very small?
Hundreds of thousands of troops and millions of civilians.
If the confrontation lasted from winter to summer, there would be a famine in the north of the Han Dynasty and a large amount of farmland would be deserted. (To be continued.)
