This is a light balloon that is made of materials that meet the upper limit of materials of this era, is exquisitely made, and is in standby mode.
After inspecting the goods, Ma Su silently commented in his heart and suddenly realized an imminent problem.
If you choose to use a light balloon for the last 500 miles, how should you go for the thousand miles ahead?
Is it necessary to tie it with a rope, pull the light balloon all the way to Yinping, and then ride on it and fly over Yinping?
Well, this is not a bad idea.
Wait! There seems to be room for exploration here.
Ma Su quickly returned to the room and asked: "The system is huge. If the balloon is always on standby and is pulled forward manually by a rope, how far can it go?"
The system responded at the speed of light.
[Note to the host: Since the balloon is sealed, and the standby state does not consume any fuel or generate any power, in theory, as long as the person responsible for towing does not exhaust himself, the distance is unlimited. 】
"Great! I'm so witty!" Ma Su sighed with high fives.
There were horse-drawn carts in ancient times, but now there are people pulling balls!
Eight years of experience in the Bronze Wuchang in his previous life suddenly made him think of a perfect cheating method - that is, he and the Qiang girl sat in a light balloon in standby mode, pulled by Zhang Xiu
Walk.
Well, you can even lie down.
However, as soon as this thought arose, Ma Su suddenly realized that he had neglected a very crucial piece of basic common sense.
high!
The standby height of the light balloon is only about 1.5 meters!
At this height, it is difficult to even get out of the gate, let alone walk through the thorny mountains.
The balloon will explode.
This plan didn't work, and Ma Su felt disappointed.
The thought of dragging a balloon for thousands of miles made him feel numb for Zhang Xiu.
"The system is great. Can I take back the light balloon temporarily and take it out when I need to use it?"
[It can be recovered, and the custody fee is 100 points.]
【Do I need hosting?】
"Host!"
[You spend 100 points and successfully use the storage function. The light balloon will leave on its own within eight hours. Please be prepared. Your current balance is 379.]
Leave on your own?
There seems to be room for maneuver here.
Ma Zhenkeng's subordinate Su snapped his fingers and thought of an excellent idea in an instant. He walked out of the room, called Zhang Xiu, and said to him seriously: "I can't trust other people. This balloon will be handed over tonight."
You take care of it and remember not to let anyone get close. If nothing goes wrong by tomorrow morning, you will be a bronze deputy general."
"any questions?"
This job is so easy.
Just one night of guarding can lead to a promotion.
I am indeed General Ma's closest confidant!
"No problem!" Zhang Xiu happily accepted the order. Then he climbed into the hanging basket, took out his sword, and struck the edge of the hanging basket with a tigerish face, driving everyone away three steps away, and then Shi Shiran sat down cross-legged.
, looking around cautiously.
The arrival of the light balloon added a cheerful atmosphere to the big yard. People have been gathering around, whispering, pointing, racking their brains and using their poor imagination to guess what uses the balloons have.
Even when dusk fell, they still gathered together and never dispersed.
This led to the fact that when Axiu sneaked over at night, it was already 11:11 (10 o'clock at night).
When the sweet wind meets the dew, it is better than the number of silver liver trees.
An hour later.
Axiu's face was flushed, she was panting slightly, and said quietly: "Sir, the five largest tribal commanders under my command are all opposed to your garrison of Ling Qiang."
The first commander, Dangtu, proposed to expel you, the second commander, Danggui, proposed to kill you, the third commander, Danghe, proposed to imprison you, the fourth commander, Dangkun, proposed to take you into his own hands, and the fifth commander, Dangjue, proposed to negotiate with you."
I suppressed them temporarily, but not for long."
Once some bad thoughts pop up, they cannot be suppressed."
"Sir, you have to think of a way."
Ma Su nodded with deep sympathy and rewarded A Xiu for his surrender.
Axiu's ability to open her heart shows that she has determined her position in her heart - that is, General Ma's person.
That's good.
An hour later.
Axiu's eyes were a little blurred and she said: "Sir, after you came, I sent people to check the population and assets of the tribe. If we include the 30,000 Qiang soldiers, the total number is 180,000."
I also asked someone to check the tribe's treasury, and found that there was enough food for half a year, more than 100,000 cattle and sheep, more than 5,000 war horses, and some gold, silver, and Shu brocade."
You can take some away if you need."
Ma Su nodded again and continued to reward A Xiu.
Another hour later.
A Xiu was so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyes, but he still managed to keep his eyelids open and said in a very soft voice: "Sir, I sent people to check the Shaodang Qiang again. There are 190,000 Shaodang Qiang in total. In addition,
There are also 30,000 Qiang soldiers. Their leader, Erhe, is in his prime, both civil and military. He has a eldest brother who is very brave and good at fighting. He is called Shao Ge, and he has the unique skill of piercing an enemy with a hundred steps..."
Hearing this, Ma Di suddenly made a comment: "How good is his eldest brother in fighting?"
"How is it better than me?"
"..."
Axiu was stunned for a moment, her eyelids rolled slightly, and after a while, she thought for a moment and said:
"Sir, I have never seen anyone as outstanding as you before you."
"After you, there will be no successor."
This answer satisfied Ma Su, and he rewarded Axiu again.
What followed was a night of silence.
Early the next morning.
Feeling that his body was rising, Zhang Xiu suddenly opened his eyes, lifted the hanging basket and looked down, and realized that he was more than ten feet above the ground, and was still rising with the balloon.
He immediately panicked. He jumped out of the hanging basket, rolled around in the snow, and hurriedly knocked on Ma Su's door to remove the impact.
"General, no good, the balloon flew away!"
Zhang Xiu's shouting soon attracted a crowd of people to watch. Everyone gathered outside Ma Su's room and started talking, saying: "How could the balloon fly away? What a pity!" but their eyes were fixed on it.
door.
I want to take a peek inside.
As they expected, Princess Axiu was also inside.
Ma Su was so noisy that he couldn't sleep, so he had to rub his sleepy eyes and opened the door. Then he was startled by the widened eyes of everyone.
Axiu squeezed out from behind him, covered her face and left quickly.
Everyone's eyes immediately followed the figure of Princess Axiu, and an idea suddenly occurred to them.
The good cabbage is so good that pigs can't bear it!
Ma Su glanced at Zhang Xiu and said with a straight face: "Dereliction of duty, this is a huge dereliction of duty! You have lost your promotion, and I will demote you one level."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiu's face suddenly fell.
Suddenly, Ma Su's voice changed: "However, since you have no merit but hard work, the demotion will be changed to staying on probation for one month."
"Okay, you go prepare the three horses and the luggage, transportation, and dry food needed for the road."
"We'll leave in three days."
Zhang Xiu was stunned for a while, and then realized that he had not been demoted. He quickly handed over his hands and said, "Thank you, General Haihan. I'll go get ready now!"
Ma Su looked around at the crowd. Zhao Yun said: Egu Er and Hezhi Meng were all present, but the Qiang girl who was there just now was missing.
Then he knew that the jealousy jar had cracked again...
