Beilin thought for a long time and immediately came up with a new idea.
"Brother Zhang, can that Ancru be trusted?"
"So far, no flaws have been found."
"If this person is available, things will be easier to handle!"
"Brother Bei, stop being so pretentious and talk about it quickly!"
Beilin picked up a branch and drew a rough shape on the ground.
"This is Tabriz, the main city of Aries. We are roughly at this location now. According to the original route, we can arrive in three days. However, we are here for a sneak attack. The biggest problem is that we may encounter obstacles on the way.
If the Aries army's whereabouts are exposed in advance, they will have no choice but to return without success. Therefore, we stay in hiding during the day and go out at night, and our marching speed is relatively slow."
"If Ancru is willing to join forces, things will be easier to handle!"
"Didn't he have 5,000 men in his hands? They all gathered together to rebel."
Zhang Mao couldn't help but ask: "He only has 5,000 men in his hands. Isn't rebellion equivalent to seeking death?"
Beilin said: "If you want this effect, the momentum must be loud. Let the upper management of Aries know that I have rebelled. I only have 5,000 people in my hands. Come and beat me!"
Zhang Mao seemed to have thought about it and said: "Sound in the east and attack in the west, to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
"Almost, not quite!"
Beilin tapped the branch on the ground with her hand and said: "The Aries Kingdom will never allow rebellion to occur. The army must be summoned to quell the rebellion as soon as possible. We took advantage of the chaos and sneaked into Tabriz City, and when the army gathered, we gave him
Let’s have it all in one pot!”
The expression on Zhang Mao's face was very complicated, including worry and excitement.
What I'm worried about is that just a few hundred people want to take down the Aries Kingdom directly?
What's exciting is that with just a few hundred people, there's really a good chance of overthrowing the Aries Kingdom!
Damn, it’s so exciting!
The next morning, Ancru came to the camp and heard that he was being asked to openly rebel. He was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly.
Zhang Maoshi was very dissatisfied and said: "Do you still want to save your General Emir?"
"Of course the general wants to save him, but...it's too risky!"
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs!"
Alejandro, who was in charge of translating, was a little confused and asked: "General, do you like tigers?"
"Damn it, it's not a tiger, it's a metaphor, it's a metaphor!"
"What metaphor?"
"That's right, that's right..."
Beilin took over the conversation and said: "It means that if you want to succeed, you must pay a price. If you are not willing to take risks, just put down the swords and guns in your hands and go home to farm!"
Alejandro translated the words, and Ancru suddenly became anxious and said: "We are not cowards, we just don't want to die in vain. Such a way to die is meaningless!"
"Who said you should go and die?"
"But we only have five thousand people. If we rebel now, wouldn't we risk death?"
"You just shout slogans and don't worry about the rest."
“What’s the use of shouting slogans?”
"I've told you too much, and you can't understand it. In short, just do what General Zhang said. If you are worried, take a step back and say, if there is a day when the army really comes to invade the country, you can run, run.
Go to Tehran, or go west into the Ottoman Empire, I, the Ming Dynasty, will accept you."
Ancrux thought about it and said, "Are you really sure of rescuing General Emir?"
Beilin shook her head and said, "Not sure."
"I'm not sure what's the use of all this?"
Ankru was so anxious that he dared to play tricks on me?
Beilin waved her hand at him and said: "We are only responsible for destroying the main force of Aries. You have to do the rest yourself."
"What did you say?"
"As long as you kill the main force of Aries, whether you want to save people or kill people, you can do it yourself!"
"I mean, where is your army? You can't just go against the main force of Aries with just a few hundred people, right? You have to know that near Tabriz City, you can assemble them in just a few days.
More than 50,000 troops!"
"The more the better, don't be afraid of too much!"
"What's the meaning?"
"You take five hundred people and follow us straight to Tabriz. The others stay and start to rebel."
Ankru's face was full of questions. What's the use of five hundred people? Even if all five thousand people were killed, they would still be completely defeated.
Zhang Mao said impatiently: "Do you still want to save people? If you don't save them, they will fall. We will leave today. You need to think carefully!"
"not me……"
Ankru was helpless. Are you so reckless in wars in the Ming Dynasty?
Just kill so many people directly?
Beilin said: "Soldiers are more valuable than their skills. I think you must have heard about why there are no black sheep?"
Ankru suddenly realized that Black Sheep was the first to take the initiative to invade Tehran, and now it is gone.
When the three armies of Black Sheep, White Sheep, and Timur pressed upon the border, and finally retreated in despair, it showed that their combat effectiveness was far beyond their imagination. It was not impossible for hundreds of people to attack Tabriz.
"Okay, I did it!"
Zhang Mao finally showed a smile on his face, patted Ancru on the shoulder and said, "This is right!"
The next day, Ancru led people to attack local officials, opened warehouses to release grain, and helped the people.
This move immediately caused an uproar. The news spread to Tabriz, and King Uzon Hesai immediately ordered to put down the rebellion.
Aries has signed a new covenant with Timur. At this juncture, he will never allow such a thing to happen.
The army quickly gathered and rushed towards the city of Tabriz from all directions.
In such an environment, the presence of troops on the road has become a common occurrence, and it seems strange that there are no troops.
Therefore, the 500 cavalrymen brought by Zhang Mao from Constantinople, the 200 men brought by Beilin from Tehran, plus the 500 elites selected by Ancru, a total of 1,200 men, also went to Taburi.
Now I gallop away.
All the Ming troops had put on Aries clothes. Without looking carefully, it would be difficult to tell the difference.
We even met other troops on the road and could chat with them for a few words.
Three days later, the team arrived near the city of Tabriz and took advantage of the darkness to hide.
Ancru was relatively familiar with the local area and found a relatively remote jungle, about two miles away from Tabriz City.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Beilin looked around, nodded and said: "It's not bad here, it's all shrubs, it won't affect takeoff."
Ancru pulled Alejandro and asked: "What do you mean?"
Alejandro's original words paraphrased, Ancru became even more confused: "Take off, who wants to take off?"
Zhang Mao stepped forward and said: "Ankru, please lead people to guard the perimeter."
Ancru asked: "Aren't you going to rescue General Emir?"
"It's not time yet."
"how long it takes?"
"Don't worry, it will be soon!"
Ancru was full of questions, but found that he didn’t know where to start.
The various behaviors of Easterners are so strange that it is completely confusing to people.
Now that things have come to this, let’s be vigilant.
We’ve already arrived, what else can we do?
According to the cordon drawn by Zhang Mao, Ankru divided the people into twenty groups. Each group was responsible for a small area and could take care of each other. Anywhere where enemy conditions were discovered, information could be passed on in time.
"Colonel Ancru, look!"
Ancru raised his head and was stunned.
In the night sky, a bright lamp slowly rose, and then floated in the sky with the wind.
Immediately afterwards, another lamp, two lamps, three lamps rose...
These lights were so big that I could vaguely see a figure inside.
Ancru thought he was dreaming, so he reached out and slapped his cheek, closed his eyes, and then opened them again...
It's not a dream, it's just a big lamp, big enough to hold a person.
"You guys stay here and I'll go take a look!"
Ancru couldn't bear it anymore and hurried to the center of the camp.
I saw a thick rope tied to the bush, and at the end of the rope was the big light I just saw, floating in the air like a kite.
At this time, most people were busy, but Alejandro was watching the excitement. Ancru walked up and asked: "What is this?"
Alejandro said: "It's a new weapon from the Ming Dynasty, called the Kongming Lantern."
"Kongming lantern...what is it?"
"I don't know either. Anyway, it's just that it's great."
Ancru couldn't help but ask: "How do you know you are so powerful?"
Alejandro rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do you know Constantinople?"
"Of course I know, the holy city in the Mediterranean is indestructible!"
"What do you think of Tabriz compared to Constantinople?"
"That's incomparable. The difference is too big."
Alejandro said calmly: "Constantinople was breached by this kind of weapon!"
After Ankru listened, he didn't speak anymore, but the shock on his face almost overflowed.
About half an hour later, the four Kongming lanterns slowly descended.
Beilin immediately called people closer to conduct a pre-war discussion on the four pieces of data.
When Ankru saw the recorder coming out of the Kongming Lantern, his whole body felt bad.
This thing really carries people!
I thought I heard it wrong just now, but it turns out that they really can fly!
"The wind direction is stable, but the wind force is strong and difficult to control. I don't know if it will drop in the second half of the night."
"I think the altitude is still not enough. If cluster bombs are used, the flight altitude can be increased, and the wind direction and strength will definitely change."
"No matter how high it goes, there is danger. Moreover, the rope has reached its limit and cannot be let go any further."
"The two can be used together. In short, we must get the parameters suitable for throwing cluster bombs."
After hearing everyone's discussion, Beilin thought for a long time, and then said: "After midnight, make two of the four ropes and put two high-altitude observation posts up. This height is our first attempt, everyone must be prepared...
…”
"I go!"
"I go!"
Before he finished speaking, someone was already rushing to get to heaven.
Others lost the opportunity and were too embarrassed to try again.
Beilin nodded and said: "After you two go up, you must pay attention to your physical condition at all times. If you find anything wrong, send a signal immediately."
Everyone got ready again, and waited until midnight to release the two observation lights again, using two lengthened ropes to pull them, and slowly flew into the night sky.
Ancru stared dumbfounded at the whole process of taking off, and was secretly glad that he was not on the opposite side of the Orientals, otherwise, he would have died without knowing how.
The two lights flew farther and farther away, leaving only two small dots, like stars in the sky.
The Ming army was already used to it, but the Aries people knelt down and prayed as if they had seen the true God.
Beilin looked at the hourglass. After the two lights took off, they only stayed for a quarter of an hour before ordering people to take them back.
Because they flew too high, it took a lot of effort to pull the rope back. Finally, the two lights landed again.
"Big, big, big... sir..."
In the bamboo basket, the recorder came down tremblingly and took out a piece of paper.
In the bamboo basket of another lamp, the recorder was in a similar condition. He was shaking all over, with snot and tears streaming down his face. His eyebrows were actually covered with white ice crystals, which were slowly melting after being roasted by the fire.
Beilin was worried that flying too high would cause the temperature to plummet, so she only stayed there for a quarter of an hour.
It seems that this decision is really wise. If it were delayed any longer, the two of them would be disabled even if they did not freeze to death.
According to the records of the two men, the wind direction and force at midnight were very stable and suitable for bombing.
For the sake of safety, observation lights are released on the ground every hour, and cotton-padded clothes and quilts are provided.
Ancru asked in a low voice: "When will the attack start?"
Alejandro replied: "Don't worry, the wind direction may change at any time. We need to observe it for at least one night."
"If you wait any longer, General Emir will die."
"There's no point in being anxious. This is already the fastest way."
Zhang Mao came over and said: "Tomorrow you send some people to sneak into the city and inquire about the news in the city. There is also the specific place where the Emir is being held. You must find out in advance. Then you can lead people to rescue him.
, don’t get lost!”
Alejandro translated and conveyed it truthfully, and Ancru nodded in agreement.
On the second day, the two teams put on civilian clothes and entered the city from the north and south directions. At nightfall, they successfully sneaked out again.
"Fifty thousand soldiers and horses have gathered in Tabriz City, mainly stationed in the area of the Grand Campus in the south of the city. The King of Uzong River Sait announced that the rebellion in the south was started by General Emir, and he will kill him at noon tomorrow.
General, give the rebels a warning."
Ankru was anxious and pulled Zhang Mao and said: "You promised me that you must rescue General Emir!"
"I didn't say I wouldn't save you!"
Zhang Mao pushed him away and said, "Listen to my brother and be patient!"
Ancru came to Belin again and said: "Please, we don't have time!"
Bei Lin disagreed and said, "Didn't I say we won't start until noon tomorrow? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Ancru was speechless. Isn't it urgent enough tomorrow at noon?
Belin continued: "Gather your troops and act tonight!"
Ancru was overjoyed and asked: "Are you going to do it tonight?"
"Wasn't it you who kept urging me?"
"Yes, but..."
"Okay, don't be too stubborn!"
Beilin waved her hand and said: "Gather your troops now, lurk outside the city under the cover of night, and wait for us to launch an air strike. Then you can save people or kill people, it's up to you."
Ankru hurriedly saluted and said: "I will obey the order!"
