Two days later.
Wu Pass, in a hall.
Chu Chi was fully armored. He sat on the seat of honor with a bold and decisive stance. In front of him was a sand table, and behind him was a beast skin map.
On both sides of Chu Chi sat a few generals. One of them was his subordinate, Wu Qi. There were also two others. One was the general guarding Wu Pass, the other was the commander of the Black Knights. There were also a few other generals.
Xun Yu was the only one among the group who was dressed like a scholar. He was sitting on the first seat on Chu Chi's left, participating in the meeting as an advisor.
"Everyone, the 50,000 vanguard troops of Donghu have already crossed the Wuer River. They will arrive at Wu Pass in another day.”Chu Chi said.
The general stood up and cupped his fists." Your Highness, the Wu Pass is steep and difficult to attack. We only need to defend the pass and deal with the changes without changing. We will be safe."”
"Do you have any other opinions?" Chu Chi looked at the others and asked.”
Wuqi stood up and asked,"May I ask, Your Highness, how many troops are there in the enemy?"”
"Five hundred thousand cavalry."
"How much do we have?"
"Eight thousand cavalrymen, including the soldiers guarding the city, a total of thirty thousand.”
Wuqi frowned and pondered. After a while, he shook his head and said,"The power is not in my hands. I should be careful."
"Can't we take the initiative to attack?" Chu Chi asked.”
Wuqi replied," The difference between us and the enemy is too great. If we attack rashly, we will easily fall into a dangerous place. If we have 50,000 elite soldiers, we can naturally fight. 30,000..."
After hearing Wuqi's words, Chu Chi also knew that what he said made sense.
30,000 against 500,000 was a difficult battle no matter how one looked at it. Moreover, most of these 30,000 soldiers were used to defend the city, and there were not many that could be used.
They couldn't just take 30,000 soldiers out and abandon Wu Pass, right?
Not to mention that most of the grassland was flat and open, which was most suitable for cavalry to charge. It was difficult to occupy the geographical advantage.
Under such a huge gap between the enemy and the enemy, it was indeed difficult for schemes to achieve the effect of winning. This was a battle of strength.
Wuqi said that if he gave him 50,000 soldiers, he could fight 500,000 Donghu soldiers. Chu Chi did not doubt this.
However, the key was that Wuqi only had 5,000 soldiers that he had trained, which was ten times less than 50,000.
Under such circumstances, Wuqi could not cook without rice.
Chu Chi was somewhat unwilling to accept this. He looked at Xun Yu, who was silent, and wanted to see what he could do.
Xun Yu shook his head slightly when he saw Chu Chi looking over. He had an idea, but it was too dangerous. For safety reasons, he didn't want to tell Chu Chi.
Seeing Xun Yu shake his head, Chu Chi thought that Xun Yu had no other choice. Knowing that the situation was irreversible, he said fiercely,""Then let's eat these 50,000 Donghu vanguard troops first! We can't just sit back and do nothing!"
"Yes." This time, Wuqi responded very straightforwardly.
"Speak." Chu Chi waved his hand.
Wuqi stood up and walked to the sand table. He pointed and said,"Your Highness, please take a look. This is the Crouching Bull Mountain. If the enemy's vanguard comes to Wu Pass, this is the only way. We can…"
........
On the vast grassland, there was a stretch of undulating mountains.
This mountain was called Crouching Bull Mountain, a branch of Qishan Mountain. It was named because it looked like a cow lying on the ground.
Crouching Bull Mountain was not very high, only two to three hundred meters above sea level. There was a winding mountain path that ran from north to south, which was about a few miles long.
When the vanguard general of Donghu, Hu Kecha, arrived, the entire Crouching Bull Mountain appeared silent and dark under the afterglow of dusk.
"Tell the entire army to quickly pass through Crouching Bull Mountain," Hu Kecha said to the messenger.”
"General, should we send someone to investigate?”
Hu Kecha waved his hand." There's no need. It's getting dark soon. There's no need to delay."”
From Hu Ke's point of view, it didn't matter whether he investigated or not. Crouching Bull Mountain wasn't very long, and his side was full of cavalry. It wouldn't take long for him to cross it.
As for whether there would be an ambush, Hu Kecha was even less worried. With his 50,000 cavalry, even if they encountered an ambush, with the terrain of Crouching Bull Mountain, his cavalry was not afraid at all.
What harm could this small Crouching Bull Mountain do to his fifty thousand cavalry? Ridiculous.
Under Hu Kecha's orders, the vanguard began to gallop into Crouching Bull Mountain. Under the trampling of iron hooves, the entire Crouching Bull Mountain seemed to tremble.
Soon, Hu Kecha's central army rode into the mountain path of Crouching Bull Mountain. Looking at the autumn scenery and sunset, Hu Kecha was in a good mood.
By the time the rest of the troops had entered Crouching Bull Mountain, Hu Kecha's main army was already about to leave the mountain.
After the vanguard cavalry of Donghu had all entered Crouching Bull Mountain, a series of killing cries suddenly rang out from the mountains on both sides. Countless rolling logs, round stones, and grass rolled down the mountain.
The Donghu cavalrymen were startled by the sudden killing sounds. When they looked up to the mountains on both sides, the sky was filled with fire arrows raining down like a storm.
The vegetation was dry in autumn. After the fire, the entire valley was lit up and thick smoke billowed.
Hu Kecha heard the sounds of killing coming from the Crouching Bull Mountain behind him and was shocked. He turned his head and saw smoke and fire rising from the Crouching Bull Mountain.
But soon, Hu Kecha laughed disdainfully, because he could tell that the number of people lying in ambush at Crouching Bull Mountain was at most one or two thousand.
One or two thousand ambushes and he wanted to take down his fifty thousand cavalry?
How dare such a stupid trick show off in front of me, Hu Kecha? Ridiculous.
