Chapter 642: Being timid before fighting

How to deal with it?

Facing Tuo Jing's inquiry, the generals on the ghost side couldn't help but bow their heads.

If the enemy troops from Sole River Valley really come to support, how else can they respond besides stabilizing the morale of the army and organizing the army to retreat in an orderly manner?

Is it possible that we still want to fight the Beifu Army?

Not to mention the enemy troops from Sole River Plain coming to support, even if they didn't come to support, considering Yunzheng's terrible record, they would not dare to attack the Beifu Army rashly!

Tuo Jing was already irritated, but when he saw everyone acting like this, he suddenly became furious.

"Speak! Aren't you usually fearless? Why aren't you talking now?"

Tuo Jing glared at everyone, his face livid.

Even though Tuo Jing was furious, the generals still buried their heads and couldn't help cursing in their hearts.

They had just received the news and were now a little confused.

Let them think of countermeasures and give them some time at least!

The enemy's commander is Yunzheng!

Jia Yao has never been defeated by Yun Zheng, but beating Guifang is like beating Sun Tzu!

It is obvious how terrifying Yun Zheng is.

They think of countermeasures, why don't they spend more time and think more carefully?

However, they only dared to say these words in their hearts, but they did not dare to say them in front of Tuo Jing.

The generals remained silent, and Tuo Jing was even more angry.

Just when Tuo Jing was about to attack, Chi Yan suddenly raised his head and looked at Tuo Huan, "What good plan does the Prime Minister have?"

Good strategy?

Tuohuan felt bitter in her heart.

How can there be so many good strategies?

Even if he had a good plan, these generals were scared out of their wits. Would they dare to implement his good plan?

Be timid before fighting!

This is impossible to fight!

After hesitating for a moment, Tuo Huan finally spoke: "I think we still need to find out the strength of the enemy's army first, and we must not mess up our position!"

To find out the true and false status of the enemy?

Do you still think the enemy is bluffing?

Tuo Jing's face was gloomy, and he breathed heavily: "Keep talking!"

Tuo Huan: "I think we can send 10,000 fine cavalry to pretend to attack the enemy's forward and see the enemy's reaction!"

"If the enemy army attacks in a large scale, it means that the enemy army is indeed strong!"

"If the enemy is cowering, it means the enemy is bluffing!"

Listening to Tuo Huan's words, everyone couldn't help but fall into thinking.

There is some truth to the matter of divorce.

However, when I think about it carefully, it seems a bit absolute.

"Yunzheng is full of tricks. Who knows if Yunzheng will set a trap for us?"

Chi Yan asked with a frown.

"This……"

Tuo Huan's beard trembled slightly, and he said angrily: "If we are afraid of this and that, and worry about Zhong Yunzheng's trap every time we think of a countermeasure, we might as well just surrender to Yunzheng!"

Let him think of countermeasures. He thought of countermeasures, but Chiyan came to deny it again.

How should he think of countermeasures?

Surrender, maybe you can be like Ga Yao.

No matter what happens, you can leave a whole body!

If you keep thinking about escaping, you will end up with your body and head missing in the end!

"fart!"

Tuo Jing was furious. He suddenly pulled out his gem-encrusted waist knife and shouted aggressively: "We still have more than 100,000 troops! Whoever dares to mention surrender in front of me again will be killed without mercy!"

Facing Tuo Jing's fierce gaze, Tuo Huan couldn't help but shake his head secretly.

That's it!

Let them be!

"The humble minister made a mistake and please punish me, the king."

Tuo Huan was frightened and slowly knelt on the ground to apologize.

"Come on! Drag him down and give him fifty lashes!"

Tuo Jing was furious and shouted mercilessly.

Fifty lashes?

Many people's faces changed color when they heard the words of "Tu Huan".

She is almost sixty years old when she is having fun!

Let alone having sex, even a young and strong general could be beaten to death with fifty lashes!

"Your Majesty, please have mercy!"

"The Prime Minister also made a blunder for a moment. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"I beg the king to spare the chancellor this time..."

After coming back to his senses, Tuo Huan's son and several righteous generals knelt down to plead for Tuo Huan.

Every country has loyal ministers and traitorous ministers.

Guifang is no exception.

As the Prime Minister of the country, Tuohuan has always fulfilled his duties.

It would be really chilling to be beaten to death just because of such angry words.

Looking at the generals who knelt down to plead for mercy, Tuo Jin's face became even more ugly.

It is reasonable for the disgraced son to plead for mercy.

But the general also followed suit, instantly making Tuo Jing aware of the crisis.

It seems that Tuohuan has a good relationship with these powerful generals!

There are so many people interceding on his behalf?

If Tuo Huan wants to rebel one day, will these generals follow him in the rebellion?

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Tuo Jing's mind.

For a moment, Tuo Jin even wanted to execute Tuo Huan and these people who interceded for him.

However, Tuo Jing finally suppressed this terrible thought.

They are now in a crisis. If all these people are executed at this time, not only will there be no one available, but it will also make their already sluggish morale even more sluggish.

"For the sake of the generals interceding on your behalf, I will give you a lenient sentence!"

Tuo Jing stared at Tuo Huan with cold eyes, "Go get ten lashes yourself! As a punishment!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Tuo Huan lowered his body to give thanks.

"Next time, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Tuo Jing gave Tuo Huan a warning look, then signaled the pleading general to get up. He immediately raised his eyes and glanced at the generals, "Please think of countermeasures for me! Whoever can come up with a good strategy will be rewarded heavily by me!"

"Yes!"

Everyone accepted the order and racked their brains to think.

Tuo Huan stood up slowly and stepped back in fear.

Soon, screams of pleasure rang in everyone's ears.

Listening to the screams of joy, some people sighed secretly in their hearts, while others were gloating about their misfortune.

And Chi Yan is the one who takes pleasure in misfortune.

Last time he led an army to support Beihuan, but in the end the Beifu army burned their food and grass and retreated in disgrace.

The old guy Tuo Huan, relying on his status as the Prime Minister, frequently made slanderous remarks in front of his father.

Today, I finally let out a breath of bad breath.

Everyone racked their brains to think of countermeasures.

But after thinking about it, there is no good solution.

They have a fatal weakness!

forage!

They carried provisions and grass, and no matter how hastily they marched, they could not outrun the enemy.

But they are reluctant to give up food and grass.

Moreover, after abandoning food and grass, wouldn't so many of them eat or drink on their way back?

In the end, an experienced general came up with a fairly safe method. According to what Tuo Huan said, detecting the strength of the enemy's army. Even if it doesn't work, the enemy can be wary and not dare to pursue it with all its strength.

If it is confirmed that the enemy troops in the Sole River Plain have received reinforcements, then they will have to retreat to the Oron Highlands with difficult terrain, and then slowly retreat back from the Oron Highlands through the Ubru Sand Land.

In this way, although it would take a big circle, they would at least be in danger and not afraid of enemy attacks.

Moreover, if the enemy troops from the Sole River Plain come to support, they don't have to worry about the enemy troops over there raiding their rear through Dayue Kingdom. It doesn't matter if they retreat for a longer time.

So, this approach totally works.

But this method also has a fatal flaw.

source of water!

Both the Oron Highlands and the Ubru Sands are very dry places.

There are not just three or five of them, but more than 100,000 people!

Without a stable water source, they would have been completely wiped out without the enemy taking action.

After much thought, Tuo Jing chose this plan.

"Chi Yan, I order you to lead 20,000 cavalry tomorrow morning to test the enemy's strength!"

"Luta, immediately take 20 people to the Oron Highlands and Ubru Sands to look for water sources. If you find a stable water source, report back as soon as possible!"

"Everyone, cheer up this king and beware of enemy night attacks..."
