Chapter 119: No Beast Can Be Raised in a Cage

Regarding the arrival of the Roman army, Han Xinxin did not have the slightest fear, only excitement.

He has been waiting for so many years just for now!

So everyone was quickly gathered together. Since a war was about to begin, it was natural for others to know.

Looking at the people around him, Han Xin pointed at the large map inside the camp and said straightforwardly:

"I got the information from the spies. There are about 100,000 people in a small city about two hundred miles southwest of the enemy. They should be the Roman front army."

Looking at the location pointed by Han Xin, Ying Li frowned slightly and said:

"Those Romans, are you giving up on those barbarians?"

Two hundred miles is still a relatively long distance, and it is already on the edge of this grassland, so naturally the barbarians cannot be protected.

Han Xin did not seem to be too surprised, but continued:

"These Romans want to form a horns with the barbarians and wait for work. When our army attacks, they will form a double flank."

This tactic was actually good. The Romans used the city as a stronghold, and the barbarians used cavalry to harass the guerrillas.

Silence and movement, in cooperation with each other, can indeed cause relatively large damage.

Ying Li continued to ask:

"This plan is good, but are you afraid that I will find the main force of the barbarians first and force them to fight?"

The main force of the barbarians escaped from the Han attack last time and hid on the grassland again.

If you can find them, you can force the other party to fight. After all, these barbarians can't afford to lose their base camp again.

You must know that the nomads on the grassland also need to hoard supplies for the winter.

Otherwise, no matter how many cattle and sheep there are, they will not be able to survive the winter, and if there are no cattle and sheep, these herdsmen will soon die out.

He has lived on the grassland for so many years, so he naturally knows how cruel it is.

Hearing this, Han Xin glanced at Ying Li with admiration. This Xiongnu Chanyu did have some talents, but of course he also had some misunderstandings. He smiled and replied:

"What does the life and death of these barbarians have to do with the Romans?"

Ying Li was stunned for a moment, then understood.

The Chinese Allied Forces are naturally closely connected and will not give up on their allies easily.

But the barbarians and the Romans were enemies before, but they had to unite when facing China.

So even if they find these people, it will not cause any harm to Rome.

It can even delay time and cause a certain amount of consumption to the Chinese coalition forces.

And it will take a lot of time, and if they can't find each other, it will be disadvantageous for them when winter comes.

After all, the Chinese Allied Forces are still engaged in expeditionary expansion, and there is still pressure on logistical supplies.

It's like the Chu State sent 30,000 people over, and the long supply line suffered huge losses.

The only one who is more relaxed is the Huns, with nearly 100,000 people on the front line, and the logistics can still keep up.

As for the Han Dynasty, without half of the country, they can only raise 50,000 elites. If there are more people, the Han Dynasty will not be able to hold on.

If they waste time here, the damage will be huge when winter comes.

Thinking of this, Ying Li couldn't help but said:

"These Romans are very calculating!"

A simple arrangement can put the Chinese coalition forces into a difficult decision-making situation.

It's just that the other leaders looked at it a little confused. Their level of understanding of this strategic military layout was still not that high.

Fortunately, they each had someone to help them solve their doubts. After Zhang Liang analyzed it and gave it to Liu Heng, Xiang Zhuang told Xiang Dalong. After Zhao Hao discussed it with his two partners for a while, the atmosphere in the camp became slightly solemn. stand up.

Analysis of the current situation is indeed not optimistic.

"General Han, how should we respond?"

Liu Heng asked proactively at this time.

The Han Dynasty is now the weakest party and cannot withstand the hardships. They will not be able to get new land and manpower before winter. This winter will be very difficult.

Xiang Dalong's face didn't look good either. Although the Chu army had no life-and-death worries, his father would be free next year, and it would be more difficult for him to make contributions by then.

Seeing that everyone was willing to attack, Han Xin suddenly smiled and said:

"If they don't come over, we'll just go over there."

"They want to relax and wait for work, so we do what they want."

Now that the other party has laid out his position, he can just follow the other party's lead, and he will do so without any false pretense.

He also let the other party feel how terrifying China was under the influence of Da Qin, so he quickly said:

"Now I need fifty thousand men as a front army to fight the Romans."

"I need to get a preliminary handle on these people."

Although he was confident of victory, he did not underestimate the enemy. Only by understanding the enemy could he defeat the enemy.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Dalong said without any hesitation:

"All the thirty thousand people from our Chu country should go over!"

He will never back down!

Liu Heng hesitated for a moment, but still did not speak.

All the big man can bring out now is 50,000 elite troops. They can't afford to be damaged, so it's better to follow the large army.

Ying Li said calmly at this time:

"The other 20,000 people will be sent by this Shanyu."

The 20,000 Xiongnu elite cavalry put no pressure on him.

Han Xin was about to nod when he heard Zhao Hao say at this time:

"General Han, I also want to go together."

Han Xin frowned slightly. The front troops sent out now were still a bit dangerous. Just when he was about to refuse directly, he heard Zhao Hao continue:

"General Han, this is also my responsibility. My father thinks so too, otherwise he would not let me go south to participate in the war."

After listening to the other party's words, Han Xin still did not agree immediately, but said:

"Your Highness, we will discuss this matter later."

He naturally knows what the other person is thinking and wants to confirm his prestige in front of others.

He also had such thoughts when he was a boy, but he was forced to endure the humiliation and bear the burden due to reality.

But he would not put the other party at the forefront like this. If something really happened, would he still have the throne?

Zhao Hao no longer forced it at this time. His father said that there can only be one leader in the army!

He must show respect for Han Xin.

Things were quickly assigned and everyone left the camp.

Han Xin then looked at Zhao Hao and thought about how to persuade him. However, he was not good at this kind of thing. If he had known, he should have brought Cao Shen with him.

But before he could speak, Zhao Hao said sincerely:

"General Han, I know you are worried, but my father said that no wild beast can come out of a cage."

"It's better to go there under your care than to run away privately."

Hearing this, Han Xin could only sigh, and the deputy general next to him said:

"Zhi, you lead three thousand men to follow the prince, and you must protect him."

This ambition has been promoted by him over the years. He made great contributions when he followed Cao Shen and captured the Western Region. He is a man of true ability, so he has no problem protecting the other party.

At this time, Zhi glanced at Zhao Hao, who seemed to have remembered what to write, and replied with a smile:

"Subordinates take orders!"
