Jinan is a crucial city in Shandong, how can it be easily abandoned?
Wanyan Digü smirked grimly: "You can't catch a wolf if you're unwilling to sacrifice the child!"
"Jinan is now a lone city, merely consuming military strength."
"Let the garrison make a grand display of 'breaking through', abandoning supplies along the way, creating the illusion of a hasty northern escape, intending to join forces with the Jin army in Daming Prefecture!"
"In reality, head northeastward, retreating to Zizhou and Qing Province!"
He smashed his fist on the strategic map between Jinan and the main forces of Gu Hui: "Gu Hui is a cautious commander. Seeing me abandon Jinan, he will surely send troops to recapture it and attempt to intercept the 'fleeing' forces to expand the battle gains, possibly even threatening the rear of the Jin army in Daming Prefecture."
"Here, is the grave I have chosen for him!"
His plan was quite perilous.
