"What are the specific methods?" Jirgalang asked, looking up.
"Send the main force directly over and catch him off guard!" Man Dahai said.
"The Ming army has scouts!" Jirgalang reminded.
"It is precisely because the Ming army has scouts that we can catch them off guard." Man Dahai suddenly laughed and said, "The Ming army scouts can find our army's tracks a mile away and report to He Jin. Our army only needs to follow the scouts closely. By the time the scouts tell He Jin the news, our main force has also arrived, and He Jin has no time to react."
Jirgalang calculated and was very worried: "The distance between our main force and the Ming army's scouts is two miles. He Jin has nearly a few dozen breaths to issue orders after receiving the news. This is enough for He Jin. Once the infantry formation is formed, it will be difficult to break through from the front. How will our cavalry break through the formation then?"
Man Dahai thought for a moment and asked, "Excuse me, Your Majesty, where is the flaw in He Jin's army formation?"
"At the left rear of the army!" Jirgalang replied, "About 80% of He Jin's soldiers are armored. He deployed the 20% of soldiers without armor to the left rear of the army."
"Then break through the formation from the left rear!"
"But there are still two thousand cavalrymen led by Liu Zhaoji behind He Jin!" Jirgalang reminded again, "If we can't break the formation in time, we will be attacked from both sides."
"Your Highness," Man Dahai took a deep breath, "The Art of War by Sun Tzu says that in any battle, the best way to win is to use the normal tactics to defeat the enemy. Only by taking risks and giving it your all can you win. If you fight He Jin using conventional tactics, you will have almost no chance of winning."
"What a risky move!" Jirgalang slapped his thigh. "Since you've said so, if I continue to be timid like before, I'd be unworthy of the title of Prince Zheng!"
"Tunqi," Jirgalang shouted behind him.
"I'm here!" Tunqi urged his horse forward and came to his side.
Jirgalang looked into the distance and said seriously: "I will give you 5,000 elite cavalry to go to the edge of the right wing of the Ming army, and you must defeat He Jin's troops. Remember, his weakness is at the left rear of the army. Also, remember that there are 2,000 elite cavalry of the Ming army behind him..."
