After the failure of the scarecrow strategy, Wu Zhentian grew increasingly humiliated and enraged. He summoned his ministers once again to deliberate. This time, a minister named Ma Daha stepped forward and offered a plan.
With absolute confidence, Ma Daha said, "Your Majesty, we can recruit a group of eccentric talents and have them train a batch of rats. We'll tie gunpowder to the rats, and when they get close to the Gale Camp, we'll ignite the gunpowder and send the rats charging into the camp. It will undoubtedly throw them into total chaos, and we can seize the opportunity to attack."
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhentian found the idea novel and thought it might just achieve the unexpected, so he ordered Ma Daha to execute it immediately.
