Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 448 Three Strategies to Kill Liu Bao
"My lord! Since the subordinates have followed the lord, they have absolutely no second thoughts!! Although our tribe, the Southern Huns, have never slaughtered the Han people. Even so, generally only a part of the money and food will be taken away! It will not make the Han people unable to survive, and they will not kill people for no reason!"

"Liu Bao is capable of killing his father, so it's not surprising that he did such evil things! It's also because his subordinates have known Liu Bao's character for a long time, so they are willing to serve the lord! If the lord doesn't trust the subordinates, you can Immediately behead me, I will have no complaints from my subordinates, if my lord can trust me once, I will be willing to kill Liu Bao and his cronies with my own hands! At the same time, release all the robbed women!"

Liu Qubei expressed his thoughts in one breath. After speaking, he stretched his neck and waited to be beheaded.

Feng Yao took a deep breath, already had [-]% trust in Liu Qubei, he couldn't help but nodded slightly, and also admired Liu Qubei's courage from the bottom of his heart, how could such a talent be willing to kill him.

"Report!!" At this moment, Liu Shun's voice suddenly came from outside the tent.

"Come in!" Feng Yao's eyes suddenly lit up, and ordered.

Before returning to the camp, Feng Yao had ordered Kuaima to inform Liu Shun to secretly inquire about the news about the Southern Huns. It was just an action by the army, but about the attitude of the Southern Huns towards the Han people in recent decades. In this way, Han men were slaughtered and Han women were looted!
After Liu Shun entered the account, he was about to report when he saw Liu Qubei who was kneeling in the account, a complex look flashed in his eyes, and he immediately changed his words: "My lord, I have something secret to report!"

Feng Yao understood and beckoned Liu Shun to come forward, whispering in his ears.

Liu Shun approached and whispered in his ear: "My lord, I have found out that this is the first time since the Southern Huns massacred Han people like this! Moreover, Liu Qubei has a very good reputation among Han people, and many times it was him." He stepped forward and took the initiative to stop other Southern Huns from killing Han people! In addition, it is rumored that Liu Bao still stationed troops in Dongyuan City, ordering his generals to plunder and slaughter everywhere! The county magistrates and county officials in Dongyuan City have all been killed by Liu Bao kill!"

Feng Yao gritted his teeth and nodded, waved Liu Shun to retreat, his eyes returned to Liu Qubei, and he made a decision.

"Go humble!" Feng Yao said loudly with a firm tone.

"Your subordinate is here!" Liu Qubei's expression brightened, his face beamed with joy, and he couldn't help but straighten up a little bit, with a feeling of resoluteness that he was willing to go through fire and water for his lord.

Feng Yao nodded, and said: "Qubei, since I have taken you as my subordinate, I will naturally use you again! If I want to attack Liu Bao now, based on your understanding of Liu Bao, what strategy do you have?"

All the generals in the tent and their relatives breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, and their expressions eased.

Liu Qubei reached out to wipe the sweat that was about to drip from his forehead, closed his eyes for a while, and when he opened them again, his eyes were bright and full of confidence.

"My lord, to defeat Liu Bao, my subordinates have three strategies!" Liu Qubei said loudly.

"Huh? There are three strategies?... Hehe, Qubei, you really didn't disappoint me, and please stand up, sit down and talk slowly!" Feng Yao laughed, and stretched out his hand to signal Liu Qubei to sit under the table.

Liu Qubei knelt down and sat down on his head, cupping his fists and said: "Liu Bao has robbed the Han people this time, and my subordinates can conclude that he will definitely abandon the Central Plains and return, and use the money, food and women he robbed as credit to compete for Shan Yu. Therefore, we must launch an attack as soon as possible, otherwise once Liu Bao loots enough money, food and women, he will go northwest and leave Hedong, and it will be difficult to chase after that time!"

"Ji Yi, our army launched a general attack, the whole army was charged, and one of them was caught off guard, and then the subordinates came forward and ordered the former cronies to defect and surrender. However, the subordinates can't guarantee that this will be successful. After all, for most of the Southern Huns To be able to return home with women, money, food, and clothes is something that has been dreaming about for many years!"

"There is another scruple. With Liu Bao's ruthlessness, if our army invades aggressively, he will definitely place the looted women in front of the formation and force our army to retreat. After that, they will mix Han women in the army. As hostages, our army cannot attack! Unless the lord is willing to let all the Han women who have been robbed die! And even if these women are killed, Liu Bao’s army is fast, and without the burden of women and luggage, he can escape in an instant !"

"Second plan, divide up our army and ambush and destroy the plundering troops that Liu Bao sent out one by one. But whether this will work is the second thing. Even if it succeeds, I'm afraid most of my former cronies will die because of it. Next, when Liu Bao learned about it, he would kill all the Han women who had been robbed, and then lead the rest of his troops to flee back to the Southern Huns! And his subordinates also lost the power to fight for the Shanyu of the Southern Huns! Of course, if the lord dispatches the Central Plains The army is another matter!"

Speaking of this, all the generals in the tent took a deep breath.

Xu Ding couldn't hold back anymore at this time, and interjected angrily: "My lord, the Huns are cruel by nature. If you don't say anything about killing me Han, they treat my Han women like pigs and dogs! I have also heard that the Huns robbed us. After obtaining Han women, they don’t kill them immediately. They are used as a tool for indulgence in normal times, and as a shield against arrows in wartime. When there is no food, they even kill women to eat meat and call them two-legged sheep. Not only do women usually eat less, but when they are killed and eaten as meat, it is more tender and tastier than men's meat!"

Xia Houbo also nodded and said: "The reason why the Xiongnu are hard to destroy is that they not only ride fast horses, come and go like the wind, but also don't have the burden of luggage, and they only carry three days of food with them, so they can eat wherever they go. If there is food, eat food, if there is no food, kill the Han people to eat! If you can't fight, you will run away, if you win, you will chase after them, and the defeated Han soldiers can never escape from the fast horses of the Xiongnu!"

The words of Xu Ding and Xia Houbo immediately aroused everyone's anger. Fan Neng, Han Shuang, Zhao Yun and other relatives suddenly had murderous looks in their eyes, and they looked at Liu Qubei from time to time. The general, I am afraid that he has already been hacked into meat by all the generals!

Liu Qubei suddenly sweated again on his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Master, what you generals said is true. The Huns are indeed cruel, but the Southern Huns are slaughtered by the Northern Huns every year! The Northern Huns want to enter the Central Plains. The first victims were the Southern Huns, and many of the women in the Southern Huns were looted! Two-legged sheep, how about the Southern Huns!"

All the generals heard the words and knew what Liu Qubei said was true, each sighed and looked at Feng Yao.

"Okay, we have to eat one bite at a time, and we have to do one thing at a time. The most important thing for us now is to kill Liu Bao first!" Feng Yao glanced at the generals, and then fixed his eyes on Liu Qubei again. On the body, "Go humble, didn't you say there are three strategies, let's talk about the third strategy first!"

Liu Qubei nodded, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, this third strategy is more risky, but if it succeeds, you can kill Liu Bao in one fell swoop, successfully regain the military power, and the strength of the Southern Huns' cavalry can be preserved to the maximum extent! With it! With this force, the subordinates also have the foundation to compete for the Southern Xiongnu Shanyu's position!"
