Chapter 566 [The 'Eagle' in the Sky Over Shu Kingdom II]
For the first time in the pre-Qin era, a hot air balloon was made, and it was impossible to really fall to death, so this time Bai Dong was also very cautious, the huge hot air balloon was tightly bound by a net covered by dozens of thick hemp ropes, and then it had to be firmly bolted to the rocks and trees, although it could also fly more than ten zhang high, but it was absolutely safe.
As a modern traverser who has played parachuting in the past, this height is nothing to Bai Dong, and after entering the bamboo blue under the hot air balloon along the rope ladder, he still hasn't forgotten to wave at the two of them.
Although the bird slippery west and Gong Yiqing both felt bottomless, they were unwilling to lose face in front of the biggest competitor in their lives, and the two of them then climbed the rope ladder and staggered into the hanging basket, at this time the hot air balloon in the hot air balloon was nearly overflowing, and the sphere slowly rose to a height of fifteen or sixteen zhang, which is the height that human beings fear the most, the two stood on Bai Dong's side, breathing a little fast, and cold sweat on their foreheads and necks; The two of them glanced at each other, but they refused to lose face in front of their opponents, they both snorted lightly, held their chests high, and their faces were full of pride.
It's no wonder that the two of them are timid, there is no need to say that the public loses the Qing, although the bird slips west is a giant of the Mo family and a first-class swordsman of the contemporary era, but he has never reached such a height, Bai Dong has a bottom in his heart, he doesn't have it, the hot air balloon is blown by the wind and sways from side to side, he feels a void under his feet, has the heart to grab the basket, and unintentionally looks down, only to see the shadows of the trees below, and the phantoms of the mountains and rocks are like ghosts, and he quickly retracted his head. It's terrible, Bird Slip West can't understand at all, why he won't get dizzy when he stands at the head of the city a few feet high, but he will be dizzy and his legs will be weak when he arrives in this bamboo basket? Looking back at Gong Yiqing, he found that this old opponent was even more unbearable than himself. At this time, my waist is no longer straight, and my chest is not straight. The buttocks were pouted high and half kneeling in the hanging basket like a big toad.
"Oops. There was a strong wind in the northwest sky, and it was not good, I was timid, and I did not bet with the two of you, so I went down first. Bai Dong walked around the hanging basket twice, suddenly shook his head, took out a small red flag from the basket and shook it twice, and immediately a man pushed the winch below. The rope was gradually retracted, and when the hot air balloon was no more than a foot away from the ground, he went down the rope ladder and waved his hand: "Come on, put it on again!" The winch creaked, but it put the two unlucky eggs back into the air more than ten feet high
Yu Huaxi and Gong Yiqing's faces turned pale, and they didn't know that they had scolded Bai Dong thousands of times in their hearts, but they couldn't show weakness in front of the children of their own family, who made them hot-headed to gamble in the air before? It's better to stay in the air longer than anyone else, and if you lose that, you have to retreat when you see the winner! People die birds ~ towards the sky. Immortal for thousands of years, fight!
Two people with extreme fear of heights were deceived by Bai Dong into the thief ship. At this time, the mountain wind is strong, even if the hot air balloon is fixed with a rope, it is inevitable to swing in the air, the two can barely calm down at first, and gradually forget what gambling game, when the north wind rises, simply hug each other to warm and comfort, I don't know how long it took, the exclamations of the two gradually lowered, but gradually overcome the phobia of high altitude, looked at each other with tears, and suddenly felt that the other party was not too annoying.
Bai Dong laughed: "Brother Shenzi, Brother Rubo, is the gambling game over?" In my opinion, both of them are dragons among people and heroes with extraordinary courage, and this time it will be a tie. Seeing the two chicks nodding their heads again and again, they smiled and lowered the hot air balloon; Bird Slip West and Gong Chengqing came down to the ground one after another, and they didn't forget to glare at Bai Dong fiercely, only to feel that if the face was hateful, no one in the world could surpass this Xijun Baizi.
Bai Dong ignored the two who were full of resentment, turned around and commanded loudly: "Pass my general order, select two thousand capable and brave men from the army and the children of the Mo family, and board the hot air balloon for training every day, you need to be qualified if you see the high altitude as nothing, and the hanging basket as a flat place" turned around and smiled at the bird slippery west: "The children of the Mo family are all first-class swordsmen, but they are not comparable to ordinary soldiers, this time it is the most suitable to serve as the Great Qin Air Force, but Brother Shenzi is the giant of the Mo family, if you command the training, the younger brother can rest assured." ”
Unexpectedly, Yu Huaxi did not refuse, and nodded: "It's okay, this giant has this intention." "The hot air balloon is definitely a benefit of the family, and there is no reason for the Mo family to give this honor to others; Gong Yiqing's mouth moved, but he didn't say anything after all, Gong Lose is a pure worker, no more than the Mo family's children are assassins who live and die, he, the head of the family, has no reason to let the children of the family take risks, not to mention that even if he wants Bai Dong, he may not agree.

When the news reached Liyang, Yingquliang laughed loudly, holding Bai Dong's flying book in his hand, and couldn't wait to stuff it directly into Bu Rongyi's arms. It's too enjoyable, at the beginning, the courtiers were all denouncing the battle of diving, even Bu Rongyi thought that Bai Dong was confused, but he stubbornly withstood the pressure and continued to support Bai Dong, this kid really didn't disappoint himself, he played such a big game of chess.
"Hehe, a few days ago, there was a report from Feishu, the battle of diving caused Shu to increase its troops three times, and now the new capital is empty! It's ridiculous that those courtiers are still talking about diving under the difficulty, since Shu has given troops, our army should retreat to Nanzheng. Hehe, even the widow was almost shaken, only satisfied with a Nanzheng, but where did he know that Ping An Lang had already planned, now the army of Shu is diving, the new capital is empty, but his army is bypassing Zitong along the secret road, and now it is less than a hundred miles away from the new capital of Shu! Hahaha, this rich and fertile land in Shuzhong will belong to my Daqin from now on! Haha, the widow thought about it for a long time, but he never thought that he really found out this secret way! ”
"But Xindu is not far from Zitong, as long as the Shu army holds on for half a month, Zitong can come back to help, at that time I am afraid that our army will be attacked internally and externally."
Bu Rongyi was originally the princess of Yiqu, and she was also a little familiar with the art of war, so she immediately raised an objection, but only halfway through the words, her eyes widened: "Air Force? ”
"Hehe, do you remember the flying lantern that Ping An Lang made when he broke the West Palace? It turns out that this is the principle of heat rising, and now he has made a batch of large air bags, which are agitated by hot air, and the lower system is a manned hanging basket, and each hot air balloon can carry two or three people, flying in the air! Think about it, Xijun, now the new capital is empty, the defenders are less than 20,000, my army suddenly pressed the border, and there is a large army from the sky, if the morale of the Shu people is not leaked, they will change their surname with that Dulu! Hahaha, if the widow expects it to be good, the long will be half a month, and the short will be three or five days, and the new capital will be broken! ”
"Okay, this time it's the king and Heian Lang." Bu Rong looked at Yingquliang with a smile, and suddenly got up and bowed deeply: "Congratulations to the emperor, but this time the Qin State is the Zhou Dynasty, and the land of Shuchuan can really belong to the Qin State?" If the emperor did this, Zhou Tianzi might not say anything, and it is inevitable that the princes of the countries will criticize? ”
"Lao Qin is the representative of Zhou to conquer Shu, and after conquering Shuchuan, this land should naturally belong to Zhou Tianzi, but the Son of Heaven has always been generous and tight, but I am afraid that most of them will divide this land into princes. Although our old Qin is powerful, he is the most loyal and willing to consider the Son of Heaven, even if the Son of Heaven is sealed, he will categorically refuse, but if the people of Shu are dead set on Lao Qin, Zhou Tianzi must conform to the will of the people, I am afraid that no one can refuse."
"But the minister's wife heard that the enlightened dynasty has been in Shu in the twelfth dynasty, and many Shu people have families and countries, and the emperor is afraid that it will be a little difficult for him to do this."
"Hehe, Du Lu has already caused the people's resentment to boil, and what do you say that the Shu people have the idea of a family and a country? If Lao Qin did not invade Shuzhong, but saved the people from fire and water, then what? In the final analysis, it is a money word, now our old Qin has money, even if Lao Qin does not have it, Ping'an Lang's kid has too much money to spend, after entering Shu, the widow will divide the private land, set up a school, punish the punishment, and sympathize with the people's livelihood, so that everyone in Shu can get their food and eat meat for three years, and then there will be people who will care about the enlightened dynasty? ”
Yingqu Liang looked at Bu Rong with a smile and said: "This kind of good thing that favors the world, if the widow wants to do it in the name of the fine monarch, is the fine gentleman willing?" ”
"What! Does the emperor want me to go to Shu and show grace to the Shu people? ”
"Yes." (To be continued......)
