Qi Xuan seemed to understand what I meant, and he quickly said: "Do you want to use those lanterns to spread poison into the enemy camp?"
If I weren't in Xia Yan's shell right now, I would really want to jump up and clap around him, this guy knows me so well.
Hanyang was stunned at first, and then became excited: "Why didn't I think of this method? It's absolutely incredible. Those bumpkins must have never seen this kind of lantern. Let them go up there, what a scene.
It's so spectacular that it can scare Rui Xueji and Yan Xiaoqing's whole family to death."
"You have to grasp the direction well, otherwise it will be counterproductive." Qi Xuan immediately pointed out the disadvantages.
I nodded: "You are right. So, you must make sure what kind of wind is blowing on the night when you put out the sky lanterns."
"Leave it to me." Qi Xuan said with a smile.
The State of Qi is an amphibious country. On the left is the State of Xia, and on the right is the State of Yan across the Bai Nu River. In order to prevent the State of Yan from sneak attacks, An State, Qi State, and Rui State all have naval warships. Water battles must take into account the weather.
, I was so anxious just now that I almost forgot that Qi Xuan is also a person who knows a lot.
Once the plan was established, it was immediately put into operation in an orderly manner. Under Hanyang's guidance, all the guards who were not on duty were made to make paper lanterns. Hanyang drew a drawing. I took a look and the lanterns on this drawing were larger than the ones I had seen before.
, Hanyang explained, the reason is that the lantern is large enough to carry more poison and gunpowder.
Originally I only thought of using these lanterns to release poison gas, but after discussion, everyone agreed that poisoning alone was not enough, and it would be better to light a fire.
Hundreds of thousands of people worked together to make lanterns, and they were completed in less than a day. Although some were unqualified, after screening, 40,000 lanterns were left and lined up in the open space inside the city gate.
On the second day, Zhao Wenwen led 5,000 troops and tied Liang Tao up. He shouted: "A bunch of cowards, look at the fate of your generals. King Rui said that as long as you open the city gate and surrender, all the past will be wiped out."
"
The city was silent, and a gust of wind blew with a warm breath.
The continuous chirping of cicadas makes people feel inexplicably anxious.
Squeak... The city gate opened, and Xiahou Lingbi led a thousand people out of the city. Zhao Wenshu smiled contemptuously: "Who are you?"
"My Excellency, Xiahou Lingbi, is here to learn your brilliant moves." Xiahou Lingbi raised the silver spear in his hand politely.
However, Zhao Wenshu became disdainful: "You are not the son of my uncle Xiahou Liancheng."
"Exactly."
"Hahaha, your father is famous for being cowardly and cowardly. The incident in Xia Palace and the fact that he begged for mercy in front of everyone has spread throughout the five countries. You better go back, kid. Don't let your father worry about your safety.
.”
"Bastard..." Xiahou Lingbi rushed over without hesitation.
Zhao Wenwen repeated his old trick and turned around to run away. Liang Tao was tied to a shelf and dragged back and forth. When he saw Xiahou Lingbi chasing after him, he shouted: "Don't chase..."
But Xiahou Lingbi didn't listen.
Because, this is what I want him to do.
As the saying goes, there are people in the court who are good at becoming officials, and the same applies here. It is not appropriate to pin all your hopes on Hanyang lanterns. The best way to ensure everything is foolproof is to have our people in the Rui military camp.
There is no doubt that Xiahou Lingbi was also captured. When the news came, there was a burst of cheers from the council hall in the city.
