At dusk, Heasu received news again and learned about the movements of the Dagan cavalry.
Heasu's face changed drastically and he became suddenly panicked.
The enemy's rear troops are also pressing forward?
The two armies are advancing side by side and are quickly attacking the royal court?
My intentions were seen through by the enemy!
The enemy launched a quick surprise attack because they didn’t want to give them time to gather their forces in the rear!
what to do?
What should I do now?
They do have a lot of troops in the rear!
But Huluo, this happened too suddenly!
...
...
They simply don't have enough time to gather those troops!
Now Dagan’s army is attacking directly behind them. If they fight with Dagan without gathering enough troops, they will simply be asking for death!
Suddenly, Heasu wanted to slap himself.
Why would you send people to delay their marching speed for no reason?
If he didn't send anyone to do this, Yun Zheng would probably be worried that there was a conspiracy behind their back and would not dare to act so recklessly.
If he sent someone to do this himself, wouldn't that be equivalent to telling Yun Zheng clearly that their rear was empty and they needed time to regroup their forces?
What a waste!
madness!
How could I be so stupid!
Heasu was in great pain. He sent someone to deliver a message to Jiayao, and at the same time called Fang Yunshi for advice.
Faced with Heasu's questions, Fang Yunshi hesitated and dared not speak.
He can't talk nonsense about this matter.
Now the dismissed troops in the rear have not yet assembled, and a large number of enemy cavalry have broken into their rear. If Heasu does not send troops to support the rear, the rear will definitely be turned upside down.
But if Heasu sends troops to support them and causes problems on their side, who will take responsibility?
No matter what strategy he came up with, Beihuan was likely to suffer heavy losses facing a cunning opponent like Yun Zheng.
Once Beihuan suffered heavy losses, Heasu would definitely vent his anger on himself.
"Hurry up and tell me!"
He Asu urged impatiently.
"this……"
Fang Yunshi hesitated for a long time before he said, "The current situation is a bit complicated. Why don't we wait for Her Royal Highness the Princess..."
Bang!
Before Fang Yunshi could finish his words, He Asu kicked him hard to the ground.
“Ahem…”
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Fang Yunshi's mouth and he kept coughing.
"I, Beihuan, don't keep useless dogs!"
He Asu looked at Fang Yunshi with a frosty face, "The princess kept you here so that you can come up with ideas! If you can't even come up with ideas, what's the point of keeping you as a dog?"
Fang Yunshi was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he didn't dare to offend He Asu, so he could only suppress his hatred and said carefully: "I... am not very knowledgeable, I really... really have no good solution..."
"I see you don't want to tell me?"
A cold light flashed in He Asu's eyes, and he shouted angrily: "Someone come!"
Two bodyguards stepped forward immediately.
He Asu pointed at Fang Yunshi and shouted angrily: "Drag him away and I will give him fifty lashes!"
"yes!"
The personal soldiers received the order and immediately stepped forward to drag Fang Yunshi away.
Fang Yunshi was so frightened that he peed his pants and shouted, "General, please spare me! General..."
He Asu was unmoved and shouted fiercely: "Beat him! Beat him hard! Take off your clothes and beat him!"
With Heasu's order, two personal soldiers immediately stripped Fang Yunshi's clothes and tied him to an erected wooden stake.
"General, spare me!"
"General..."
Fang Yunshi wailed continuously, begging for mercy from his parents.
However, Heasu was not moved at all.
Originally, He Asu looked down on Fang Yunshi, a coward. If the princess had not thought that this coward was still useful, he would have chopped him into pieces and fed him to the wolves.
The two bodyguards knew how to whip someone in a way that would cause pain, so they soaked the whips in water.
Bang!
After one whip, Fang Yunshi let out a shrill scream and trembled all over in pain.
Bang!
The second whip came down.
Fang Yunshi screamed again, and two intersecting red marks were left on his back.
Snap, snap, snap…
The two bodyguards kept whipping Fang Yunshi on the back with the whips in their hands.
Soon, Fang Yunshi's back was beaten to pieces.
No matter how Fang Yunshi screamed and begged for mercy, He Asu remained unmoved and allowed him to be beaten severely.
After more than a dozen lashes, Fang Yunshi finally couldn't bear it anymore, and wailed with a distorted face: "General, I... I have a way, General... ah..."
Fang Yunshi screamed as he spoke.
He dared not not say it.
After just over ten lashes, he was already unable to bear it.
After fifty lashes, he was afraid that he would be beaten to death.
"stop!"
He Asu stopped the two guards and walked up to Fang Yunshi. "Tell me, what's the solution?"
Fang Yunshi took a few deep breaths and regained his consciousness. Then he said weakly, "We can split into two groups..."
"nonsense!"
He Asu cursed with a dark face: "The troops can be divided into two groups, but this general doesn't know how to divide the troops into two groups?"
If we needed to split our troops into two groups, we would have done so long ago.
Why do we need to wait until now?
"No, no, I...I'm talking about another kind..."
Fang Yunshi was terrified and said tremblingly: "We can send 15,000 troops to the northwest to penetrate the enemy and cut off their retreat. The rest of the troops will continue to escort the food and fodder to the direction of Princess Jiayao..."
In this way, they formed a situation of three armies in front, middle and rear.
Jia Yao's troops were the vanguard, and the troops that were escorting food and fodder towards Jia Yao's troops were the central army.
The group of troops advancing on the enemy is equivalent to the rear army.
The rear army was only feinting an attack, forcing the enemy to not advance too deep or run rampant behind them.
If someone wants to attack their central army, the rear army can also quickly return to support.
Listening to Fang Yunshi's plan, He Asu couldn't help but think silently.
Um!
This is a good plan!
However, there are still loopholes!
"What if the enemy ignores our rear troops?"
He Asu frowned and asked.
"Then the rear army has no choice but to... take the initiative to attack."
Fang Yunshi replied cautiously: "At present, our rear is empty and the troops have not yet been fully assembled. We must send some troops to charge over and delay the enemy at all costs. Even if we lose troops, we can get reinforcements from the rear, but the enemy's number is getting smaller and smaller..."
As long as the enemy suffers too many casualties, they will definitely not dare to continue to raid their rear.
Otherwise, facing the pursuit and interception of warriors from various tribes, the enemy army would be completely wiped out.
Of course, the best outcome would be that they forced the enemy back with only 15,000 troops.
After all, they had just forcibly incorporated those troops, and now the morale of the army was very unstable.
If a real fight breaks out, the enemy will suffer heavy losses, and they will also suffer heavy losses.
He Asu thought about it silently and made a decision in his heart.
"Untie them and take them away to apply medicine!"
Heasu gave a light instruction and immediately summoned all the generals to discuss the matter.
Looking at Fang Yunshi being helped down to apply medicine, He Asu couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Despicable bones!
He has to wait until the whip hits him before he comes up with any advice!
Those who don't know how to live or die deserve to be beaten!
