Sugatha had obviously prepared carefully.
Faced with repeated questioning by Li Shiqi and Chen Ping, she clearly explained a plan to attack the Xiongnu and answered many questions.
The generals in the tent nodded repeatedly after hearing this, feeling that this strategy was indeed a good one and the possibility of success was high.
Zhao Tuo sat in the upper position with a calm expression and did not make an immediate decision.
The plan mentioned by Sugatha is indeed very good. If it can be successfully implemented, it will probably be able to defeat the Huns.
But, is this woman trustworthy?
Judging from the deeds Zhao Tuo heard, Sujatha was very smart and skillful, and her actions were somewhat ruthless.
Could it be that she has other plans for offering this strategy now?
Zhao Tuo stared at her and asked straight to the point.
"What you said is very good, but you are so enthusiastic and offer a strategy to help us attack the Huns. What is the purpose of it?"
The tent suddenly became quiet, and a pair of eyes fell on Sugatha.
Sujatha took a deep breath, knowing that this was a very critical issue. Whether she could win the trust of the general and whether she could truly integrate into the Qin country depended on this.
She bowed slightly and said solemnly: "General, I have admired the culture of Zhuxia since I was a child. I often learn Qin language and practice Qin characters from merchants who come to Yueshi. I like to use Qin people's items. For Qin's Powerful people have ears to hear.”
"I know very well that among the world, Qin is the largest and strongest after unifying the Central Plains. The number of Qin people is a hundred times that of our grassland people. Qin's army is equipped with the strongest armor in the world and carries the sharpest weapons in the world. , has the most powerful warriors. The Qin army is invincible and invincible, and it is led by a strong man like the general. It is definitely not something that we mere grassland people can resist. "
"Therefore, I don't dare to have any second thoughts in this matter. I just want to contribute a little bit of strength to the general and other generals in conquering the grassland and get a little credit."
Speaking of this, Sugatha's voice became a little more excited.
"I once heard from the merchants who came and went that the Qin State respected meritorious service, and as long as you have made meritorious service, you can get a title. Whether it is a soldier who traffics cattle and horses in the frontier, or a woman who transports cinnabar, you can rely on your contribution to the Qin Dynasty. Obtain the corresponding status. This time I gave you advice because I wanted to make contributions to the Qin Dynasty and earn a future for myself in the Qin Kingdom."
With that said, Sujatha bowed to Prime Minister Zhao Tuoji to show her submission.
Zhao Tuo understood.
Sujatha mentioned that the Rong people who trafficked cattle and horses in the frontier were Wushi Luo, and the woman who transported cinnabar was Ba Widow Qing.
One of them is a Rongren and the other is a woman. Both of them were given the treatment of "ranking kings" by the First Emperor for their contributions to the Qin State.
Their deeds gave Sujatha hope.
The State of Qin has a way to ascend. As long as she can make contributions to the State of Qin, even if she is a woman of a foreign race, she can climb up.
Therefore, after Sujatha surrendered, she couldn't wait to offer the strategy of destroying the Huns, not only so that Qin could conquer the grassland, but also for her own future in Qin.
“Is it the convert fanaticism effect?”
Zhao Tuo muttered in his heart.
This is a psychological concept, which roughly means that people who later join a certain camp are often more loyal and fanatical to that camp than those who were born in that camp.
In layman's terms, the second Japs are worse and more hateful than the real Japs.
Zhao Tuo didn't know if Sujatha did this out of this psychology, but at least it was a reasonable motive.
She knew that Qin was so powerful that the grassland could not win.
She wanted to integrate into the Qin State, so she wanted to use this incident to make contributions and gain a higher status.
"This woman is very discerning and courageous."
Zhao Tuo whispered.
Looking at Sujiasha kneeling in front of him, Zhao Tuo said warmly: "Since Lord Shang's reform in our country of Qin, those who have made military achievements have been honored with titles. Although you are a foreign woman, as long as you sincerely surrender, , you have made great contributions to our Great Qin, so I will not treat you badly."
Zhao Tuo did not decide whether to implement the strategy proposed by Sujatha, but gave her a promise that she would be rewarded for her meritorious service, which was a reassurance for her and temporarily reassured her.
Sugatha breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed again: "Thank you so much, General."
"You go down first."
Zhao Tuo waved his hand and asked someone to take her down.
Then he turned to look at the generals in the tent and asked calmly: "What do you generals think?"
When Zhao Tuo asked Sugatha just now, the generals did not dare to interrupt. Now when they heard the general's question, they no longer remained silent.
"I think we can give it a try. This Sugatha doesn't seem to be a stupid person. Since she knows that our Qin country is far more powerful than the grassland, she doesn't dare to play tricks on this matter."
"And we can send others to lead the Yueshi soldiers to surrender to the Huns and keep her in our hands. If something happens, we can kill her on the spot. She shouldn't risk her own life, so I think she It’s a sincere suggestion.”
It was Sima Liang who spoke.
He was in his thirties, had followed Li Xin in his expedition to Chu, had some friendship with Zhao Tuo, and had a quite calm personality. After some analysis at this moment, he believed that this matter was feasible.
Zhao Tuo nodded slightly.
He also agreed with this proposal. After all, it was Zhao Tuo who decided who to carry out the plan and who to send undercover to the Huns.
Sugatha and other Yuezhi people couldn't interfere at all. If something happened, she would have to lose her head, so it was unlikely that she could play tricks.
However, the Qin army still had to be wary of the possibility of rebels if the Yuezhi people came to the Xiongnu side.
"Choose Yuezhi people who have not been killed by our army and have wives, children and parents to do this. They have no hatred against our Qin army, and have seen the power of our army. In addition, they have wives, children and parents who are still alive. , if you have scruples, you will be less likely to betray us. If you dare to leak the secret and rebel, the entire clan will be killed!"
"In addition to using parents, wives and children to restrain them, you can increase the rewards to attract them. After defeating the Huns, they can use the heads of the Huns in exchange for cattle and sheep. This ensures that they all regard the heads of the Huns as treasures, and will not leak secrets and rebel before then. .”
"You can also choose Yuezhi people who have hatred against the Xiongnu to participate."
The generals used their brains one after another to propose strategies.
From containment, intimidation, to reward and attraction, various measures were taken to prevent Yuezhi people from rebelling, and the details of this plan were completed.
Got to the back.
Li Shiqi also suggested: "Touman Chan of the Xiongnu is a smart man. He was fooled once on behalf of the land. He will definitely be more careful this time, so we have to make more plans and strive to get the Yuezhi people to surrender. Their situation It seems more real and doesn't make the other party suspicious."
To sum up, if the Qin army wants to successfully implement this plan, it must "act" the Huns.
Watching the counselors and generals in the tent excitedly contribute their strategies and strategies to this big plan.
Zhao Tuo smiled.
He looked down at the letters placed on the case, which contained information about the Huns from Yang Yuan's partial division in the north.
Affected by the Qin army's capture of Henan, the civil strife among the Huns north of the river seemed to have subsided temporarily.
Their tribe gathered near Yinshan Mountain, and from time to time they sent people along the north bank of the river to inquire about the situation in Henan. They even sent people to try to sneak across the river, but they were all shot by Yang Yuan's people.
"The news from Yang Yuan has come. It should be almost done with Qiang Yu."
"I wonder if he caught the fleeing Marquis Xiumi."
