After the annihilation of his vanguard of 150,000 troops, the Xiongnu Chanyu Sahehan dared not make any rash moves and adopted a wait-and-see attitude.
However, when his scout network learned that Jiang Ming had personally led an army of 200,000 to support the Zhao Kingdom, he pondered for three days and three nights and finally changed his attitude, deciding to take the initiative and not wait any longer!
The reason is simple!
He carefully analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of both sides...
The previous defeat of 150,000 troops in the desert was indeed a rather humiliating loss.
This is mainly because 140,000 people were deceived... The remaining 10,000, no matter how capable they are, can only salvage some face in localized tactics!
So, in the end, it's not that I'm weak, but that my younger brother is stupid!
If one could personally lead and command a war, such a situation would never occur!
Moreover, his secret weapon has arrived!
That is, the corpses of people who died of the plague, sent from the rear...
These bodies were placed into tightly sealed coffins.
Sahehan planned to directly attack Yunzhou City, then use these dead bodies as projectiles to hurl them into the city...
In this way, we might be able to destroy the Zhao state without losing a single soldier!
Although the Great Gan Empire is powerful, their commander Jiang Ming is also capable of fighting!
However... this vast empire has a fatal flaw: not only is it fragmented, but its core fighting force also relies too heavily on Jiang Ming alone...
If Jiang Ming were to contract the disease and die.
That entire Great Gan Empire could be said to have absolutely no fighting power!
I can easily march straight in and sweep across the Central Plains!
Sakha harbored an even more terrifying thought...
He wanted to transform the entire agrarian civilization into a steppe civilization: that is, to kill all the people, turn all the arable land into pasture, and then come to the Central Plains to herd sheep and cattle...
For dry people!
Sahehan and Yixie'er have completely different ways of thinking...
Earlier, the Xiongnu Chanyu Yixie'er thought of turning all the people into slaves and servants to work for him!
As for Sahehan, his son-in-law, his plan was to leave the land and the people behind, and kill them all to prevent future troubles!
He was tolerant of the Turks in the Western Regions and other nomadic tribes of the steppes, but he hated the Gan people to the core...
