Chapter 397 My Nima, Are You Still Here?(2/2)
"It's possible!" Guan Ying nodded and said, "Send one thousand people... three thousand people, send three thousand people to attack!"
It's not that Guan Ying is timid, but it's the first time he's done something like this. Everything in front of him feels strange, so he has to act cautiously.
Besides, even if 3,000 people were dispatched, it wouldn't be a big deal. If it was a false alarm, that would be for the best.
If the enemy has an ambush, with three thousand men, they can easily support the arrival of the army.
While they sent people to attack, they found Bayar and Batu and wanted to hear their opinions.
After observing the following scene, Bayar smiled: "General, you are worrying too much. Now you can just take them in even if you send two hundred people down."
"Yes, this was obviously beaten by the Huns. The young people and men who could be used were all called away, and all the horses were taken away. The cattle and sheep were left behind, perhaps just to appease them.
The human heart keeps these people from starving to death, but they can't run far either..." Batu explained immediately.
This is a routine commonly used by grassland people. If you do it too badly, it will be a self-sustaining routine.
In that case, no supplies would be left to them.
But if you want to win over the other party, you will still leave some supplies for their families, at least to prevent them from starving to death, but you will never leave the horses, otherwise they will run away.
The Xiongnu troops were not large to begin with, so naturally they would not divide their troops to look at these old, young, women and children. The best way was to do this.
But Guanying decided to be more cautious.
The Han soldiers who did this on the grassland for the first time were also very cautious.
Three thousand people quickly sorted out their armor, checked their weapons, and selected the main war horse that they had been recharging.
Then with an order, three thousand cavalry charged directly towards the camp filled with old, young, women and children.
At this moment, the Donghu people in the camp did not even have time to put away their sorrow. Their loved ones died, and some were dragged to the front line by the Huns.
A middle-aged man who had been injured in the war looked at the sky helplessly. He was considered useless in this life, and he could only eat and wait to die. Maybe this winter would be completely cold.
Suddenly there was a violent vibration in the ground. The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and immediately looked in the direction of the sound.
