Upon hearing Huangfu Song's plan, Qiu Liju's eyes lit up. The northern Wuhuan were fierce and brave, and Qiu Liju was no less so. With the addition of the Han army, they would have a numerical advantage and might be able to eliminate the northern Wuhuan in one fell swoop.

"How do we seduce them?"

Qiu Liju hurriedly asked, as he was also eager to fight and eliminate the Wuhuan in the north.

The two sides had been locked in a stalemate for so long, and the northern Wuhuan had never directly clashed with them. Therefore, Qiuliju had a vague guess that the northern Wuhuan must have learned the reason for the Han army's deployment, which was why they chose to keep at it.

After all, according to the Han army's military expenditure standards, the daily consumption of 5,000 regular cavalry is an astronomical figure. Even if he and Nanlou's two forces were combined, they wouldn't be able to hold out for long. When the Han army withdrew and the Wuhuan in the north charged up again, their deaths would not be far off.

Huangfu Song then pointed in the direction of Chengde and said in a deep voice, "As soon as they learn of our army's retreat, the northern Wuhuan will definitely seize this place first!"

Therefore, in order to lure them into a trap, you and Nanlou's troops need to set off overnight and arrive there to set up camp before they occupy it, making it appear as if you intend to hold out for a long time!

"I understand. Commandant Huangfu means to defend the place the enemy must occupy."

"As long as we hold that place, the northern Wuhuan will never be able to threaten us again! Therefore, they certainly won't let us occupy it so easily."

Huangfu Song nodded and said in a deep voice, "That's right, exactly! Once our army retreats back to Yuyang, we will disguise ourselves as your troops and head there again. Then, our two armies will join forces and annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

Qiu Liju nodded heavily, "Commander Huangfu has a good plan, then we will follow Commander Huangfu's wishes!"

Huangfu Song said, "I have already sent someone to inform Nanlou. You should go back immediately and prepare. You will set off for the target location first thing tomorrow morning!"

"Commander Huangfu, then I shall take my leave now!"

"good!"

Qiu Liju nodded, bowed to Huangfu Song, and then quickly walked out of the tent, leading Tadun and his subordinates away.

Huangfu Song sat in the tent, looking in the direction Qiu Liju had left, his eyes slightly narrowed, his fingers tapping the table repeatedly, making a "thump thump thump" sound.

From the conversation just now, Huangfu Song felt that Qiu Liju was not only exceptionally brave and quick-witted, but Huangfu Song also saw a deeply hidden ambition in his eyes.

If we don't get rid of him soon, he might cause a lot of trouble for us and the Han Dynasty if he develops in the future.
