She naturally recognized Huo Qingtong's identity.

Therefore, he said in an even more annoyed tone:

"So that's how it is, you're trying to please your new lover?"

She even slapped away Gu Hanyuan's somewhat presumptuous hand.

Gu Hanyuan didn't care about this.

He said jokingly:

"To be precise, I want to please both of you..."

Zhen Sushan remained silent upon hearing this.

He had an expression that said, "Let's see how you want me to make this up."

Gu Hanyuan said in a deep voice:

"I will assassinate Ao Bai in a while."

Zhen Sushan was shocked to hear this.

They didn't even care about the hand that came back to cover them.

He shouted in disbelief:

"Are you crazy?"

Gu Hanyuan chuckled:

"You two are saying exactly the same thing."

Zhen Sushan knew that Gu Hanyuan was referring to Huo Qingtong.

At this moment, she couldn't care less about Gu Hanyuan's teasing.

With her eyebrows raised, she said in a deep voice:

“I’m not joking with you. Ao Bai’s personal strength is probably useless against you, but he’s always in the army. It will be very difficult for you to find an opportunity to assassinate him.”

Gu Hanyuan was somewhat surprised that Zhen Sushan was so worried about his safety.

It seems that yesterday's contact...

She was more important to Zhen Sushan than she imagined.

This unexpected gain made Gu Hanyuan even happier.

He pondered making slight modifications to his strategy for winning over Zhen Sushan.

He smiled lightly, his expression remaining impassive:

"Don't worry, Madam, I already have a plan."

It's hard to say for sure whether Gu Hanyuan could take Ao Bai's head even if he were hiding in the midst of a massive army.

This is too bizarre for most people.

They would be even less likely to believe it.

Of course, Gu Hanyuan wouldn't do that.

Not only troublesome.

It consumes a lot of resources.

Totally worth the loss.

Zhen Sushan saw that she could not persuade Gu Hanyuan.

I felt a little annoyed.

Looking at Huo Qingtong, who remained silent.

An idea flashed in my mind.

He asked with a cold laugh:

"You killed Ao Bai for Miss Huo?"

He slapped the large hand away again with disdain.

She had a "don't mess with me" look on her face.

With her intelligence, she could have seen long ago who would benefit most from killing Ao Bai.

However, she was blinded by her worries about Gu Hanyuan.

Gu Hanyuan solemnly said:

"This is also the basis for your cooperation."

Zhen Sushan was taken aback upon hearing this.

For a moment, I was a little confused.

"What do you mean?"

Gu Hanyuan explained:

"Let the Hui people escape the pressure from the Qing Dynasty. In this way, they will only need to face the Mongol Yuan. The same applies to Khwarazm; only after establishing a base can they resist the Mongol Yuan."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Sushan finally snapped out of her inexplicable jealousy.

After careful consideration.

I have to admit that Gu Hanyuan is right.

But for some inexplicable reason.

She suddenly sighed and said:

"To be honest, even if we, the Khwarazmian Empire and the Uyghurs, form an alliance, I don't think we can cause any real damage to the Mongol Yuan Dynasty. The difference in strength is too great. It would just be like throwing an egg against a rock."

This is the question that Zhen Sushan has been avoiding.

Reason told her.

Khwarazm had no hope of restoring its kingdom.

But her long-held belief has sustained her all the way.

Yesterday, Gu Hanyuan ruthlessly tore off Fang Yeyu's fig leaf of lies.

But it also made her realize the reality.

Now, all we can hope is that Gu Hanyuan's plans in Western Xia will succeed.

That way, we can provide our people with a safe habitat.

Gu Hanyuan's eyes flickered.

How could he not know the strength of the Mongol Yuan dynasty?

All this was done precisely to delay the advance of the Mongol Yuan dynasty.

Give yourself time to develop.

He chuckled and said:

"While we may not be a match for the Mongol Yuan in terms of raw power, it doesn't mean we can't cause them trouble. Offense is always the best defense. Otherwise, there will always be a day when we can't hold on."

Zhen Sushan was amused by Gu Hanyuan's words.

"Attack? Young Master Gu is joking again."

Gu Hanyuan said in a deep voice:

"I'm not joking. Being unable to win on the main battlefield doesn't mean we don't have an advantage in the rear."

Zhen Sushan and Huo Qingtong were both taken aback upon hearing this.

They asked the same question in unison:

"The battlefield behind enemy lines?"

Gu Hanyuan explained modern guerrilla tactics behind enemy lines to the two women.

Various tactics and battle examples, such as raiding, guerrilla warfare, ambush warfare, tunnel warfare, and siege warfare, are explained one by one.

The era of cold weapons was naturally somewhat different.

However, the core tactical ideas remain the same.

"The Mongol Yuan Dynasty now has a vast territory, and there are many remnants of the old kingdom who are unwilling to submit to its rule. It also lacks control over remote areas. It has even had to enfeoff princes."

Looking at the two women whose beautiful eyes were shining.

Gu Hanyuan chuckled:

"In short, remember the sixteen-character mantra: When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy camps, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue."

In fact, a similar statement was made in "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu.

"If the enemy is small, one can escape; if the enemy is weak, one can avoid it. Therefore, the strength of a small enemy leads to the capture of a large enemy."

It's just that it's not as comprehensive as that.
