Gou Xi unfolded the letter sent by Zhao Hanzhang, raised an eyebrow slightly, and casually handed the letter to Yan Heng beside him, "She is indeed cautious, knowing to send me a message first."
Yan Heng took it and glanced through it, bowed and said, "General, she must be seeking aid for Yu State. Do you want to meet her, or find an excuse to dismiss her?"
Gou Xi pondered, "Previously, how many cities did you say she captured?"
"Twelve cities, maneuvering skillfully with unpredictable movements; the Xiongnu have yet to track her down."
Gou Xi said, "She is indeed a capable general in military tactics. To dare to capture cities in the Xiongnu's rear and succeed repeatedly, shows her ability."
"However, she can capture cities but not defend them, and she has the advantage of being in Yu State where the people won't betray her whereabouts."
Zhao Hanzhang wreaks havoc deep in the Xiongnu's territory; why can't Liu Yuan capture her despite having so many troops?
