Geng Gong is familiar with the art of war, the so-called know yourself and know yourself, and fight every battle. Geng Gong Li took advantage of the Huns' belief in gods. While smearing poison on the bow and arrow, he made up a story: "The archers of the Han family have different sores." After the war with Geng Gong, the Huns were shot with bows and arrows, and the wounds slowly festered and the pain was unbearable. I gradually believed what the soldiers in the Han dynasty said, thinking it was a fairy shelter. As a result, the morale of Xiongnu was low, which was very important in an army. An army without morale is like a loose sand.
Geng Gong took the Huns seriously and attacked the Huns camp in the middle of the night. Such an unexpected move did not occur to the Huns. Geng Gong's plan successfully ambushed the Huns and caught them off guard. Because the Huns were unprepared, the Huns suffered heavy casualties in this battle. Then the Han army escaped unharmed. Because of this war, the Huns retreated backward, giving the Han army a chance to prepare for the next round of war.
It is also very difficult to defeat 10 thousand people with just a few hundred people today. The quality of Geng Gong is worth learning.
