Li Shunzu took a deep breath and said, "Is there no solution to this problem?"
Li Xingzhong smiled shrewdly: "It's not unsolvable. As long as we can defeat their cavalry, it will be fine."
"But we have less than 20,000 cavalry, and the other side has 40,000..." This time it was Li Shunzu's turn to smile bitterly.
Li Xingzhong stepped forward and stood in front of him, saying leisurely: "I said before we sent out the troops that fighting a war is the same as playing cards. Whoever shows all his cards first loses. Think about it, what cards do we have left?"

Could it be Liu Zhaoji, who was once famous for his daring and charging on the battlefield of Liaodong?
Hauge swallowed and realized the seriousness of the problem.
He thought he could trap the Ming army on the grassland, but he didn't expect that the Ming army had reinforcements, and they were 20,000 elite cavalry.
