"Hey, hey, hey." Liu Renyu laughed embarrassedly for a while, and then smiled: "The last general thinks that this matter still needs to be kept secret, so he didn't say it." ”

"You can't trust us?" Zu Dabi said with a dark face.

"No, no, it's just that digging a tunnel is a big deal, after all, this tunnel leads directly to the city, if everyone knows about it, and some of these soldiers happened to be captured by Jiannu, Jiannu knows this tunnel, and you can attack the city from this tunnel, then our army can only blow up the tunnel, so it is too rowable, and the last general does not want this tunnel to be exposed too early, because the last general also hopes to use this tunnel in future attacks." Liu Renyu distinguished.

"General Liu is reasonable, I understand, I am just joking with General Liu, General Liu must not take it to heart." Zu Dabi first smiled in response, and then asked, "I don't know what you are digging the tunnel for?" ”

"Thank you, General Zuer," Liu Renyu thanked him first, and then continued: "The last general means that when the general attack, you can send a partial division, take the tunnel to the back of the two white flags in the east of the city, launch a surprise attack on them, and mainly attack their stables, let their horses go, so that they have no way to pursue, and then this partial division will go all the way to the west and join our army in the west." Liu Renyu suggested.

"General Liu's plan is wonderful, but I don't know how big General Liu's tunnel is, can he let people and horses pass through at the same time?" Zu Dashou asked.

"No problem." Liu Renyu patted his chest and reassured.

"That's good, this town thinks that General Liu's plan is brilliant and can be used as a strategy for our army's defense, do you have any objections?" Zu Dashou looked around and asked.

"We have no objection." The generals of the Liao army said in unison.

"Okay, the strategy of battle and defense is set, let's determine the strength of the battle." Zu Dashou said.

"The whole army of the Jingbian Fort Army of the last general can attack." Liu Renyu took the lead in expressing his position.

"Very good." Zu Dashou praised the festival.

"The last general is also willing to lead his men and horses to attack."

The rest of the Liao army generals saw Liu Renyu as an outsider, and they wanted to shed blood for Liaodong at every turn, if they were not active, wouldn't it be too inhumane, so everyone asked Zu Dashou to send them on the expedition.

Everyone is competing for the first, it is very rare, this is the change brought by Liu Renyu, Zu Dashou suddenly felt a little grateful to Liu Renyu.

"And don't be busy, and don't be busy. They are all attacking, who will defend the city? Zu Dashou raised his right hand and pressed it down, signaling everyone to be restless.

The tent was quiet again.

"How to distribute troops, please also ask the commander to make it clear." The generals asked in unison.

"The meaning of this town is to leave 1,000 to use the old army to defend Dalinghe City, and the 3,000 newly recruited Liao army to defend the city, and the remaining more than 5,000 elite soldiers all attacked, of which 1,000 people attacked from the tunnel, attacked the two white flag barracks, and the remaining all the troops went all out to assault the two blue flag barracks, and after breaking their camps, they quickly attacked to the west and joined the reinforcements sent by the imperial court. Do you have any objections to the layout of this town? Zu Dashou looked around and said.

"We have no objection." The generals replied in unison.

"Very good, please be ready, as long as you are sure that the imperial court has indeed sent an army to relieve the siege, our army will attack immediately." Zu Dashou made a final decision.

"Yes, Marshal." The generals agreed, and then they left the big tent of the Chinese army to make preparations.

*****

Under the sky, above the earth, in a vast space, three hot air balloons are flying up and down in the sky.

They were already nearly ten miles away from Dalinghe City, and the ropes had reached their limit, and they could no longer be allowed to fly west.

If they want to move on, they just need to cut the rope, but they naturally won't do it.

"It's so cold on this day!" Zukefa stood in the hanging basket, rubbing his hands together and said.

"General Zu, the sky is not as good as the ground, not only is the temperature lower, but the air is also very thin." Ke Zhihong said with a smile.

"What is air?" Zu Kefa wondered.

"This is a term that our general taught our air force, the general said that there is invisible and untouched air around us, of which oxygen is the necessary gas for us to breathe, and our hot air balloon can fly because biogas, that is, methane is burned in oxygen to produce heat, so that the specific gravity of hot air decreases and becomes lighter than air, thus generating buoyancy and driving the hot air balloon to rise into the air."

Ke Zhihong asked one question and answered ten, and talked eloquently.

Zu Kefa could hear the clouds and mountains and fog, and for some reason, the speed at which brain cells died was amazing.

"Mr. Ke, don't say it, I don't understand." Zukefa couldn't laugh or cry.

"Oh, oh, let's not talk about the little one." Ke Zhihong saw that Zu Kefa couldn't understand, so he quickly shut down and stopped talking about these things.

They just concentrated on holding the clairvoyant mirror and carefully observing the movement in the west.

Zukefa held the clairvoyant mirror and looked at the west for a long time, and finally found something abnormal.

"Mr. Ke, do you see if there is a lot of dust rising from Jinzhou Avenue in the west? And the guard of honor of the Jiannu chief Huang Taiji seems to be there. Zu Kefa pointed to the west and asked Ke Zhihong.

When Ke Zhihong heard this, he looked at the west for a long time, and finally found an abnormality, and he replied: "Grandpa, that mountain is blocking the view, but the little one does see the dust." ”

"That's right, such a big dust, there must be a large army coming, let's take a look." After Zukoffa finished speaking, he continued to observe motionlessly.

They had to wait for six hours before a seemingly large force came into sight.

"Let me see if they are reinforcements?" Zu Kefa picked up the clairvoyant mirror and looked vigorously to the west.

"That's Mr. Wu, Mr. Song, I can't be wrong, I can't be wrong, it's the reinforcements, it's the reinforcements of our Ming Dynasty, the court hasn't forgotten us, it's really a reinforcement, it's really a reinforcement."

Zukova was in ecstasy, and he wished that he could join the reinforcements immediately.

"Mr. Ke, if you don't remove the rope, let's fly to the reinforcements to contact them, and tell them that there is no shortage of food in our Dalinghe City, and we plan to counterattack." Zu Kefa said to Ke Zhihong with a look of hope.

"General Zu, if you let go of the rope, the small one can't guarantee that you will be able to fly to the reinforcements, and if there is a strong wind, maybe we will be blown to Jiannu, so please forgive the little one for not obeying his fate." Ke Zhihong politely rejected Zu Kefa's nonsensical request.

"It's true, it's true, it's me Meng Lang." Zu Kefa first said a few words, and then waved his hand in the direction where the reinforcements were coming, and shouted loudly: "Wu Zongzhen, Song Zongzhen, I Zu Kefa is here." ”

When Zukefa was dancing in the sky, trying to attract the attention of the reinforcements, the reinforcements really noticed Zukefa, but this was because the hot air balloon flying in the sky was very dazzling, and they saw it early in the morning.

Like the Houjin soldiers who saw the hot air balloon for the first time, the reinforced Ming troops were extremely frightened when they saw the unknown object flying in the sky, and they thought that this was the secret weapon of Houjin, so for a while, the army's heart was a little fluctuating.
