If it means flying eastward, it means the King of Yan is not in his bedchamber.
Upon hearing this, He Wu waved his hand lightly, and immediately rows of archers released their arrows in unison. Arrows rained down on the suicide soldiers, killing them instantly!
Their usefulness has been exhausted; what remains... is their value as 'scapegoats'!
