By the time Heasu led his troops to arrive, Yun Zheng and his men had already escaped.
There were still many corpses of mules and horses that had been transporting supplies on the ground.
All the Beihuan soldiers who were responsible for escorting the catapults were also killed.
Heasu's face was cold, and he roared: "Pass the order, chase the enemy at full speed, and make sure to keep these damned Dagan cavalrymen on our land! We must use their blood to wash away our shame!"
"No, General!"
At this time, Fang Yunshi, the counselor beside Heasu, quickly spoke out to stop him.
Fang Yunshi was a surrendered general of Dagan.
He surrendered to Beihuan in the battle six years ago.
Although Fang Yunshi did not get the opportunity to lead the army, he had always served as a strategist in the Beihuan Army.
The Beihuan army had previously failed in three sneak attacks, and the soldiers in the Beihuan army hated the Dagan people to the core, and even Fang Yunshi, the surrendered general, was hated.
...
...
During that period, Fang Yunshi's situation was very bad.
Not to mention the generals of Beihuan, even the ordinary soldiers would cause trouble for him.
If you are not careful, you will be whipped.
It was only after Jia Yao arrived at the front line to lead the troops that Fang Yunshi was re-employed.
Fang Yunshi was also filled with gratitude towards Jia Yao.
"No?"
He Asu looked at Fang Yunshi with a frosty face, "They stripped our people's clothes, they must be going to seize Weibian City! There are only a thousand soldiers guarding Weibian, can they hold it? Do you want to watch Weibian fall into the hands of the enemy?"
"General, calm down." Fang Yunshi quickly said, "We have been chasing them all the way and are exhausted, and the enemy has rested here! If we continue to chase them, we may be ambushed by the enemy..."
Fang Yunshi was like a loyal dog, carefully analyzing the pros and cons with He Asu.
It's too late for them to chase now.
Relentless pursuit will only give the enemy opportunities.
And Wei Bian certainly cannot be saved.
There are only so many people guarding the border, how can they possibly defend it?
Even if they chased Wei Bian now, Wei Bian would definitely fall into the hands of the enemy.
Instead of doing this, it would be better for them to go over slowly and surround Weibian, and then send someone back to inform Jia Yao, asking Jia Yao to lead the army over and trap this large group of cavalry in Weibian!
He Asu thought for a while, and his expression looked a little better.
After ordering someone to go back and inform Jia Yao, Heasu asked everyone to rest on the spot and shave off the remaining meat from the carcasses of mules and horses.
Beihuan is short of food now. Although the meat is not much, it cannot be wasted.
Heasu cut a piece of meat from a dead mule or horse and was about to roast it over the fire that was not yet completely extinguished, but he smelled a strange smell on the meat.
He Asu frowned and immediately brought the meat to his nose and smelled it carefully.
Suddenly, a strong smell of urine entered Heasu's nostrils.
Heasu dropped the meat in his hand and quickly came to the corpse of the mule or horse.
It was only then that he noticed that the bodies of the mules and horses were covered with pale yellow ice.
Urine!
"asshole!"
Heasu roared angrily with a ferocious look on his face.
These damned idiots!
They didn't have time to shave the meat off the mules and horses, so they just peed on them!
These damn Dagan people never thought of leaving the remaining meat for them from the beginning!
Soon, others also discovered that the remaining meat had been urinated on.
Everyone was gnashing their teeth in hatred, wishing they could catch up with them immediately and tear those damned Dagan cavalry into pieces.
However, they were now exhausted and might not be able to catch up with Da Gan's cavalry.
In anger, everyone could only curse and spit on Yun Zheng and others madly to vent their anger.
To be honest, even if someone urinated on these remaining meats, they could still be eaten if they were roasted and someone was really determined.
But when the people of Beihuan thought about the fact that the people from Dagan had urinated on the meat, they gave up the idea of eating it.
He Asu was furious, and immediately mounted his warhorse, shouting, "Save the horse's energy and march to Weibian!"
Now, Heasu had no intention of resting on the spot at all.
All he could think about was catching up with the Da Gan cavalry and tearing those damn Da Gan cavalry into pieces.
…
On the other side, Jia Yao had ordered the army to stop the pursuit.
Aluta's troops were defeated.
The Dagan soldiers had already broken through Aluta's defense line and returned to the Beiyuan shallows.
No matter how unwilling she was, she could only order the pursuit to stop.
Although she wanted to lead the 60,000-strong army to attack Beiyuan Shoal, she knew she couldn't do that.
If they really did this, even if they wiped out all the Dagan soldiers who escaped from the edge of the hill, there would probably be only a few left of their 60,000-strong army.
Defeated!
From the moment Aluta's troops were defeated, they were defeated!
Jia Yao stood in front of the trench dug by Aluta with a grim face, clenching his fists tightly, with a heart full of grief and anger.
A battle that was sure to be won ended in their miserable defeat.
Jia Yao really couldn't accept such a result.
At this moment, Jia Yao, who had always been confident, also began to have deep doubts about himself.
The key is, even if they lost, she didn't know how they failed.
Just as Jia Yao was filled with grief and indignation, her personal guards came over quickly and said sadly, "Princess, we've figured it out. The reason why Alutai's troops were defeated so quickly was because a group of elite cavalry from Dagan charged into their center from the ice of the Baishui River. The Dagan soldiers in front of them took advantage of the chaos in their army to kill them..."
"Cavalry? Where are the cavalry?"
Jia Yao asked angrily.
The guard raised his hand and pointed to the southeast of the hill. "There is a path leading to the Baishui River..."
Small path?
Jia Yao's face changed and he immediately jumped on the horse.
Led by his personal soldiers, Jia Yao quickly arrived at the path.
The horse footprints on the path are still there, proving that Dagan's cavalry did enter Baishui River from here.
Jia Yao suddenly turned around and looked at the city wall at the edge of the hill.
There is no gap at all in the city wall over there!
They have people guarding all the gaps!
How did Da Gan's cavalry get here without anyone noticing, right under their people's noses?
Moreover, that elite cavalry was able to disrupt Aluta's central army, so their number must be at least a thousand, right?
How could the actions of so many cavalrymen escape their eyes?
Not even at night!
Jia Yao had a headache, but she ignored it and racked her brains to think about how to gather these cavalrymen here without anyone noticing.
Failure is not terrible.
The scary thing is that I don’t even know how I lost.
Jia Yao kept thinking about what happened last night.
She now knew that Yun Zheng had taken the trouble to send people to launch feint attacks in order to allow this elite cavalry to arrive here without anyone noticing.
Everything Yun Zheng did was to prepare for the sudden attack by this cavalry.
But the question is, how did Yun Zheng do it?
As he was thinking about it, Jia Yao suddenly shuddered.
She knew how Yun Zheng did it!
Divide your troops!
Hide the soldiers!
Every time they made a feint attack, they would quietly send a small number of people out.
In the dark, no one would notice this.
Little by little, it adds up to a lot!
After such a night of hard work, it would be a piece of cake to transfer thousands of cavalry here!
The noise made by those people just happened to cover up the sound of horse hooves.
She just thought that Yun Zheng wanted to confuse the public and that he was bluffing and wanted to break out from other directions.
In the end, he was deceived by Yun Zheng.
Yun Zheng is so cunning!
This bastard!
How did you come up with this idea?
At this moment, Jia Yao felt extremely regretful.
If she had known this earlier, she should have deployed all the troops to surround the hillside!
However, if the army were to deploy across the board, Yun Zheng would probably have to concentrate his superior forces to break through.
Jia Yao's face was full of bitterness and he was speechless for a long time.
Defeated!
I am indeed not as cunning as Yun Zheng.
I didn't deserve to lose...
