On this day, Han Xin, Xiang Yu and Long Qi met in a dense forest in a mountain after several days of observation. The three of them shared the situation they observed and prepared to set up the final strategy to attack the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty on this day.

"No matter which direction we go from, whenever we approach the arrow tower, we will be discovered by the soldiers on the arrow tower. We will definitely fall into a hard battle with the Mauryan sergeants stationed outside the city. Although the combat effectiveness of these soldiers is still much worse than that of our cavalry in the Qin Dynasty, if we fight like this, our army will suffer heavy casualties!"

The first to express his opinion was Long Qi. Along the way, Long Qi was placed behind by Xiang Yu to transport food and supplies. However, after attacking a city, there was a place to release the food and supplies. Moreover, this time, for the mobility of the cavalry, 100,000 people basically brought more than ten days of food for the sake of the mobility of the cavalry, and they all did not occupy the space. The mountains and rivers here were beautiful. In fact, even if there was no food, the cavalry ambushed by the river or at the foot of the mountain would not starve to death. Instead, they solved a big problem.

This time, Long Qi brought 30,000 troops and was determined to make great contributions to Xiang Yu in this important battle.

But it is obvious that after observing, he found that although the soldiers of the Mauryan Dynasty were not very trained, they were the capital of others after all, and the front was not good at all. So Long Jie just told the situation he observed and had no other thoughts.

Han Xin and Xiang Yu looked at each other and saw a ball of flame in each other's eyes. If they had always had a less challenging battle like before, Xiang Yu would regret that he had led his army in person. Now, the issue of the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty has been placed in front of Xiang Yu. He must not only cooperate with Han Xin well in this battle, but also prove himself that this is the battle he really wants to participate in.

"Shanyu, this capital is no better than the previous city. According to the scouts I sent, there were hundreds of elephants in a military camp. Once the cavalry we were waiting for was hit by these elephants, the damage would not be smaller. It is probably because of these elephants that the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty would be so stable as Mount Tai."

The place where Han Xin was stationed was not far from the barracks that raised elephants, so he understood the situation of the Mauryan elephants very clearly. In Han Xin's opinion, the elephants were definitely a huge threat. When their 100,000 cavalry attacked, they would not be afraid of even if there were 200,000 infantrymen on the other side, but if there were 500 elephants on the other side, the situation would not be very good.

Since the people of the Mauryan Dynasty dared to raise elephants, they must have a way to make the elephants obedient. Before they figured out this matter, Han Xin believed that it was impossible to easily let the 100,000 troops fight the enemy, otherwise once their elephants were very obedient, this matter would be difficult to deal with.

As the main general of this team, Xiang Yu knew that this head must be opened by himself. Han Xin had not said any method before, so he must be talking first, and he was very stunning to not want to steal his own limelight.

After calculating the time, Xiang Yu knew that it had been more than two months since he brought the 80,000 Huns to the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty. In a war of such a large scale, more than two months were naturally not a long time, but Xiang Yu knew that he should solve the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty as quickly as possible, because he had to go back to carry out a series of transformations of the Huns under his rule.

"The Mauryan Dynasty is different from the Central Plains. Although the city walls are tall and the scouts are dense, I think there will be not many defenders in the city. Almost all of their defenders are outside the city. Therefore, if our army wants to take this city, it must first defeat the defenders in several barracks outside the city. Of course, it also includes the elephants raised by the people of the Mauryan Dynasty. However, the existence of this elephant may not be completely harmful to us..."

Speaking of elephants, some different brilliance was emitted in Xiang Yu's eyes, which made Han Xin's eyes lit up. He had never heard Xiang Yu talk about how to use these elephants before. The reason was very simple, that was, they didn't know how to control these elephants at all, and they didn't know how the other party controlled these elephants.

According to the previous discussion between Xiang Yu and Han Xin, it was indeed impossible to figure out how to attack the city, but to first defeat the barracks outside the city. Before, they both agreed that they should concentrate their superior forces and defeat those barracks in one by one.

However, through the observations over the past few days, they all found that it was very simple to say this strategy, but it was difficult to do it. There were six barracks outside the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty, five of which were all infantry, and one had about one with less than a thousand elephants and less than ten thousand cavalry. Even if it was considered a cavalry barracks of the Mauryan Dynasty, it was obvious that their cavalry existed to cooperate with the elephants.

Although these two barracks are located around Fahrenheit City, they all have one characteristic, that is, they are not too far away from each other. The elephant barracks are located in the middle, and the other five barracks radiate around this barracks.

With this arrangement, once a barracks are attacked by the enemy, at least two soldiers from the barracks will be able to rescue them in time. In addition, those elephants will definitely arrive when there are not many casualties.

In this way, Han Xin and Xiang Yu wanted to attack these barracks to break through each of them, which was not very meaningful, and they would quickly expose their troops and strength to the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty. It was precisely because they all realized this matter that they had this discussion.

"I wonder how Shanyu wanted to use those elephants?"

"I, the Central Plains and the Huns, have not been without elephants, but since ancient times, no one has tamed elephants as mounts. It is precisely because elephants are wild and difficult to tame. I see that the elephants raised by the soldiers of the Mauryan Dynasty are no different from the elephants in the Central Plains. Therefore, I guess they are just commanding elephants to a certain extent. Otherwise, they would not block the place where the elephants are raised with high fences. The distance between the elephants and people is very far, which is clearly because they are afraid that the elephants will run out without control or hurt people."

Xiang Yu's words made Han Xin nodded. He suddenly realized that Xiang Yu had grown up too much compared to the boy in Jiangdong before, and he didn't pay attention to those at all. However, it was obvious that the people sent by Xiang Yu noticed those. Han Xin knew that sometimes there seemed to be no flaws, and the biggest flaw was often in these details that others had never noticed.

"The Shanyu means that even the elephants raised by the people of the Mauryan Dynasty are still wild and difficult to tame. We can take advantage of this..."

"Yes, if only my cavalry of Daqin and the Huns face the elephant, our cavalry will naturally suffer in the end. But if we are not only my cavalry of Daqin and the Huns face the elephant, but the situation is very chaotic, our cavalry will not necessarily suffer in the end."

Xiang Yu's words were obviously just a matter of the end, but Han Xin and Long Qi were both generals standing at the top of the pyramid in this era. They almost immediately understood what Xiang Yu thought of. This was a strategy to use the other person's way to do it. Once successful, the effect would be self-evident.

But all three of them also know that there are risks for any strategy that looks good, and the risks will never be small. This strategy is the same. Animals like elephants are very different from kittens and dogs. Once the elephant rushes up, no matter how strong or invincible you are, once you are hit, there is absolutely no possibility of survival.

Moreover, the speed of the elephant running is definitely not inferior to that of a war horse. Once the plan fails and the people of the Mauryan Dynasty can really make the elephant attack the enemy alone, the risk will be too great.

"What the Shanyu said is indeed a clever plan. You can try it out, but I am waiting for a hundred thousand troops, but I must not all of them be dispatched. If this matter is not carried out according to Shanyu's idea, it will be very unfavorable for us."

Han Xin didn't say it directly, because he thought it was quite worth it, but he would definitely not agree to putting eggs in the same basket.

According to Xiang Yu's plan, it was nothing more than a team of people to attack the enemy's military camp, but its purpose was to lure out the elephant. After pulling out the elephant, it would use the advantage of cavalry speed to disperse the formation, so that the elephant could have an impact on the Mauryan army.

If all 100,000 troops go there, it will not only not have a great effect, but will also block some escape routes because of too many people, which will obviously be less than worth the loss.

In fact, what Han Xin meant was that he would bring the 30,000 vanguards. If he succeeded, he would undoubtedly be the biggest contributor in this battle. If he failed, the 20,000 cavalry of the Qin Dynasty would not lose. Of course, in Han Xin's heart, he would basically not fail.

"Yes, today the three of us are here. If we agree with this strategy, Long Qi will take 20,000 people to attack the infantry barracks closest to the barracks that raise elephants at night, try to mobilize as much as possible, and guide the people in the barracks to the direction of the elephants. If the elephants can be drawn out, we can use the riding and mobility of our Hun cavalry to see if the elephants can be allowed to move according to our temptation. Even if this failure occurs, we must know how those people from the Mauryan Dynasty control the elephants. If we learn about this, even if there is some loss, it will be worth it!"

Before Han Xin could say anything, Xiang Yu gave the task directly to Long Qi. Han Xin was about to refute it one sentence or two, but Long Qi did not give him this opportunity at all. He was extremely excited and agreed to Xiang Yu's order, which made Han Xin stunned. He knew that if he argued at this time, it might destroy the great unity between the Qin and the Huns, so he could only frown and not speak.

Next, Xiang Yu and Long Qi set the time to go out, and gave some advice on Long Qi's offensive route and escape route, and then put Long Qi back in advance and prepared.

According to Xiang Yu, their 100,000 troops were ambushed in the mountains and forests outside the capital. It was impossible for them to never be discovered by the people of the Mauryan Dynasty. Therefore, only by taking action as soon as possible can they take the initiative in their own hands.

After Long Qi left, Xiang Yu did not let Han Xin leave immediately. Obviously, he had something to say to Han Xin.

"This time I dealt with the elephant of the Mauryan Dynasty was a strategy I thought of after a sudden whim. It was too risky. Only the general of the Qin Dynasty had arrived here, and there were only 20,000 troops. Once something went wrong, Xiang Yu could not explain to the Emperor of Qin. If the relationship between the Qin and the Huns deteriorated, Xiang Yu would become a villain."

"If Shanyu said this, he would look down on Han Xin..."

Although Han Xin knew that Xiang Yu was telling the truth, his words still made him feel uncomfortable.

"This is naturally just one aspect. This time, let Long Qi take the lead, and you and I don't have nothing to do. If Long Qi fails, you and I can't watch our 20,000 cavalrymen in the Huns be completely wiped out by the Mauryan Dynasty. If Long Qi wins, your subsequent tasks will be even more arduous. If you and I don't cooperate, I'm afraid it will not be completed!"

Xiang Yu said this, so Han Xin naturally couldn't say anything. They discussed it for a full hour before they returned to their ambush.

Xiang Yu had almost never given any constructive opinions in the previous process, nor had he led the charge. However, now that he has reached the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty, Xiang Yu has finally stopped silent. This is the first strategy he has set up. Xiang Yu naturally does not know whether he can achieve the result he wants. However, in this war that should have been dominated by the Great Qin and the Huns, at least when Sima Xin and Peng Yue were not in place, he temporarily took the lead.

The most unsure part of Xiang Yu's heart in this plan is undoubtedly that he does not know how the people of the Mauryan Dynasty used to control the elephant. However, if they knew the language of the elephant and could even communicate with the elephant, then Xiang Yu's plan would certainly end in failure.
