Chapter 444: The Starving Dead
“Hot air balloon?”
When Zhao Xu uttered these three words, Tsui Hark, Chang Wei and the generals suddenly had their eyes shining.
"If you can save the emperor with a hot air balloon, everything will be simple. Without the emperor in Xiancheng, the Beidi will no longer have the need to continue to siege. You will definitely draw troops back to rescue Ningjindushi. The danger of Xiancheng can be solved." Zhao Xu said slowly.
The generals have seen the hot air balloon, and there is no way to do this in the East and West Beidi.
Moreover, after training, soldiers who manipulate the hot air balloons can control the hot air balloon to land accurately in a very small area.
It is not impossible to rescue the emperor with a hot air balloon.
The only trouble is how to transport the hot air balloons to the vicinity of Xiancheng.
After all, the distance between hot air balloons is not very far.
"I admire your nobleman's endless plans." Chang Wei said sincerely. He really didn't expect this.
If the plan between the east and the west is carried out at the same time, this time it will really break Mulehon's real conspiracy.
Tsui Hark frowned and said, "But this hot air balloon is not far away. Xiancheng is three hundred miles away from Qin Pass."
Zhao Xu looked at Zhongli and said, "So, a cavalry needs to lie down at night and walk around in the morning and reach the vicinity of Xiancheng."
Facing Zhao Xu's gaze, Zhongli raised his chest. He knew what the King of Yan meant, "Your Highness, you can go."
Zhao Xu nodded. This time, Zhongli and Chen Hu led the cavalry into the grassland to harass him. He had already gained the experience of going deep into the enemy's backbone. He could feel more at ease when he asked him to go.
As for Chen Hu, his mission to go north with the fleet to attack Beidi rear this time.
"Just like in Jinzhou, this time you can only bring ten days of dry food and fight quickly." Zhao Xu officially issued an order.
"Yes, Your Highness." Zhongli shouted loudly.
He has been glad since he came to the command of King Yan.
It was the King of Yan who led them to win the battle and fulfilled his dream of striking the Northern Di.
Now, just like all the generals of the royal palace's personal army.
He will unswervingly execute any orders from King Yan.
Zhao Xu showed a look of ecstasy.
After deciding on this matter, Zhao Xu ordered the generals to go back and prepare and keep Tsui Hark alone.
Walking outside the military school, Zhao Xu said to Tsui Hark: "At present, you will immediately spread the news that Ulaanba was defeated at sea and Ulaanba was captured to Ningjindusi. The more the noise, the better."
Tsui Hark nodded and remembered it in his heart.
The King of Yan did this to make the people of Beidi panic, so that this rescue plan could be implemented smoothly.
"Also, Fan Yang's affairs should be closed. This time I will deal with Yuan Li well." Zhao Xu's eyes narrowed.
I didn’t kill the Yuan family last time. Even if I couldn’t kill the Yuan family this time, I would have to seriously damage his vitality and never recover.
The most important thing is that if I save Zhao Heng this time, even if I don’t have sufficient evidence to deal with the Yuan family.
He was afraid that Zhao Heng could only bear it. Even if he had to pay off his merits and demerits, he would not blame him, right?
"The people from the lower officials have been staring at the leader of Bei Di Xi. As long as he goes to sea, the lower officials will pass the news to Zhou Yi." Tsui Hark said.
Yuan Li sealed Fanyang City, but caused trouble for the transmission of information.
However, it will not affect the members of the Fourth Academy in Fanyang City's follow-up of Yuan Mansion.
Moreover, after the plan to go south from the sea this time was determined, the commander of Beidie Xizu was obviously much bolder.
When entering and leaving Fanyang, it is no longer as cautious as before.
It seems that I am very confident that I can win Yanzhou in one fell swoop this time.
Unfortunately, he was finally disappointed.
"Well, that's it." Zhao Xu nodded.
As long as he caught the leader of Beidie and forced him to confess, he would attack Yuan Li and ignore how Yuan Li defended.
When he was in a relationship with Beidi and pretended to be an imperial guard and tried to take down Yan Pass, his fate was destined.
...
Yanguan, granary.
The baggage trucks seized from the fake imperial guards were parked in the courtyard of the granary.
At the entrance of the granary, two soldiers guarding were about to replace the two soldiers on duty at the door. When passing by the baggage truck, they suddenly heard a slight "cuckoo" sound.
The two soldiers looked at each other, a little strange, but they didn't care and continued to walk forward.
But after a few steps, another "cuckoo" sounded.
Their faces changed, and this time they heard it clearly.
This "cuckoo" sound seems to come from the baggage van.
They looked at each other again, and the two of them did not speak, but continued to walk forward.
When they arrived at the door, the two of them whispered to the soldiers on duty.
The soldiers on duty immediately left and told their boss the news.
The boss told Mo Yu the news again.
"There is a sound in the baggage truck!" Mo Yu was patrolling the city as usual. He almost jumped up when he heard this.
News of Zhou Yi winning a great victory at the sea and annihilated all the troops heading south and North Di had already reached here.
All the soldiers of Yanguan were extremely excited.
If Yanguan makes a mistake at this time, Mo Yu should not only die, but his reputation as the Mo family will also be ruined.
Realizing something, Mo Yu immediately dispatched troops to enter the granary and surrounded the baggage truck.
Even if it was a pig, he figured it out.
The fake imperial guards and false imperial edicts are just a trick, and the enemy's real killing move is in the baggage cart.
"Come out, how long will you hide?" Mo Yu shouted.
Then he ordered the soldiers to pull a twelve baggage cart.
At first glance, the baggage truck was not abnormal.
After walking around the baggage truck, Mo Yu suddenly knocked upward from the bottom of the baggage truck.
"Dongdong."
An empty and dull sound came, like knocking on a wooden box instead of a wooden board.
Mo Yu narrowed his eyes, and this time he was really careless.
Several drops of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he said, "Since you don't come out, I will burn you all."
"Crack." As soon as he finished speaking, a sound suddenly came from the bottom of the baggage truck.
A soldier in a night-dressing suit opened the floor as if he had opened a window and fell from the baggage cart to the ground.
When he saw Mo Yu and the soldiers of the royal palace, he did not raise his sword to kill people, nor did he shout.
Instead, he opened his chapped lips and said weakly: "I surrender, give me some food, please."
Since entering Yanguan.
They kept hiding in the baggage cart waiting for Ulaanba's army to arrive at the southern gate of Yanguan.
When Ulaanba's cannon fired, they would come out of the baggage truck that night and open the south gate.
According to the plan, Ulaanba's army will arrive one or two days at most.
But they hid in the baggage truck and waited left and right, but they didn't wait for the sound of artillery fire from Beidi.
At the same time, in order to avoid being discovered, they did not bring dry food or water to prevent the sound of eating and drinking water and the smell of food from coming out.
But in a flash, five days and six passed, and they hadn't waited for anything.
They can tolerate it in one or two days, but five or six days have reached the limit of the human body.
