Chapter 152: Secret Weapon

Early in the morning, before the sky was completely bright, Zhu Mingyang gathered all the soldiers, and the soldiers stared at the young man in front of them, wondering if Zhu Mingyang had thought of any good way to attack Longzhi City. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Brothers! Yesterday's failure to attack the city was my fault, and it was my failure to lead everyone well. We've lost so many brothers, and we can't afford to sacrifice any more, so I've decided to create a secret weapon to attack Longzhi City! Zhu Mingyang said to the soldiers in a loud voice.

"Secret weapon?" As soon as Zhu Mingyang's words fell, the soldiers below began to whisper.

"That's right! In the past, the public loss class built a cloud ladder and attacked countless cities, and the high walls of Longzhi City were thick, so we can't be the hard side, and we should use better siege weapons to attack the city like the public loss class! Zhu Mingyang said carefully.

"But we only have a ladder, I don't know what Zhu Gongzi's so-called secret weapon is?" Suddenly, a bold soldier asked.

"This ...... Do as I ask you to do first, and you'll get to know slowly! Zhu Mingyang understood that it was difficult to ensure that there were spies from Longzhicheng among the soldiers, so Zhu Mingyang did not tell the soldiers his thoughts.

"Good! As long as we can, General Ma, we will listen to you! The adjutant general stood up and said to Zhu Mingyang.

"Okay, then let's tear down the tent and sew first!" Zhu Mingyang said firmly.

"Tear down the tent? Sewing? The soldiers looked puzzled.

"Don't you want to save General Ma?" Zhu Mingyang raised his voice.

"Yes, let's go!" The soldiers scattered.

The soldiers dismantled the tents they lived in, but fortunately the autumn rain had stopped and the tents were no longer needed.

Under Cuicui's leadership, the soldiers reluctantly began to learn to do needlework. They were originally seven-foot men, and when Zhu Mingyang proposed to let them do needlework, most of the soldiers strongly resisted, but Zhu Mingyang said that General Ma would be rescued in two days, and even the forbidden army was doing needlework, so the soldiers reluctantly accepted.

In just one day, the soldiers had woven ten huge pieces of cloth from their tents, which were so large that they were even larger than the tents in which the soldiers lived. And according to Zhu Mingyang's requirements, there is no gap.

The next day, Zhu Mingyang asked the soldiers to start weaving bamboo baskets non-stop, although the soldiers were reluctant in every way, but seeing Zhu Mingyang's confident appearance made those soldiers compromise again.

It wasn't until the evening that the soldiers finished weaving ten huge bamboo baskets, and the soldiers didn't understand why Zhu Mingyang had made them seamstresses one day and bamboo sliversmiths the next day, and they were angry and very curious at the same time.

At Zhu Mingyang's request, the soldiers wrapped the bamboo basket thickly with several layers of bamboo, Zhu Mingyang asked a few soldiers to stand inside, and the other soldiers lifted the bamboo basket, and after confirming the firmness of the bamboo basket, Zhu Mingyang nodded slightly.

Zhu Mingyang asked the soldiers to make the woven cloth into a ball-shaped thing, and supported it with bamboo strips, and then connected it to the bamboo basket with a thick rope.

In the end, Zhu Mingyang asked the soldiers to fix the cauldron of the fire under the cloth ball, and asked the soldiers to put the firewood in the pot, and then stepped into the bamboo basket himself.

Zhu Mingyang was both excited and nervous, as a rural teacher, he had never even taken a plane, and this time he actually got on a hot air balloon made by himself.

"Bring the torches!" Commanded the soldiers.

Zhu Mingyang took the torch from the soldier's hand and lit the firewood in the iron pot, the firewood in the pot crackled under the devouring of the flames, and everyone looked at Zhu Mingyang's solemn face and became even more puzzled.

The fire burned more and more, and the hot sparks lit up everyone's cheeks, and the people around the cloth ball also felt a trace of heat in this late autumn.

Suddenly, the bamboo basket shook gently twice, startling the people around him, and calmed down for a moment in Zhu Mingyang's calm eyes. Zhu Mingyang took the opportunity to step out of the basket and pulled Cuicui and Xu Yueer into the bamboo basket with his hands.

The bamboo basket shook twice and slowly left the ground, and after a while, the bamboo basket was more than one person high, and everyone realized at this time that the cloth ball carefully made by Zhu Mingyang could fly, which was what Zhu Mingyang called the "secret weapon". No wonder Zhu Mingyang dismantled the tent and unloaded the iron pot to make this cloth ball.

"It's flying, Master Zhu is flying!" The soldiers screamed in surprise.

The bamboo basket flew higher and higher, Zhu Mingyang stood in the bamboo basket and looked down on the entire field, the soldiers on the field became smaller and smaller, and finally they were like ants, and they could only see the light emitted by the sporadic torches in their hands.

"We flew!" Xu Yue'er looked at the fire in her eyes and screamed excitedly, and the whole night sky remembered Xu Yue'er's scream.

"Husband...... I'm afraid! Cuicui closed her eyes in fear

"Don't be afraid! You see, they can't see the wind! Zhu Mingyang hugged Cuicui into his arms.

Cuicui slowly opened her eyes in Zhu Mingyang's arms, but saw that the people under her feet had disappeared, and there were only sporadic fires, like stars in the night sky.

"Xianggong, how did you do it!" Cuicui snuggled into Zhu Mingyang's arms and asked in surprise.

"Thank you for that!" Zhu Mingyang gently pinched Cuicui's nose.

"Me?" Cuicui was even more confused.

"Do you remember the night you baked my clothes? The clothes are floating! Zhu Mingyang reminded.

"Remember! But it was blown up by the wind! Cuicui thought for a moment and said.

"Actually, as soon as the clothes float up, I think of this 'hot air balloon', the hot air rises and the cold air falls." Zhu Mingyang explained, but the more confused Cuicui was.

"What are you talking about?" In the end, even Xu Yueer didn't know what Zhu Mingyang was talking about.

"Well, although you don't understand the principle, you just need to know that this thing was made by your husband!" Zhu Mingyang hugged the two into his arms.

After a while, the cloth ball flew over the Longzhi City, but unfortunately now there is no wind and can only be vertically lifted, Zhu Mingyang can only look down on the Longzhi City from a distance, but he sees the lights of thousands of homes in the Longzhi City.

"Husband, you see it's Longzhi City!" Cuicui excitedly pointed to the Longzhi City in the distance.

"Husband, look, the brightest light is the General's Mansion!" Xu Yue'er was also excited.

"The moon is so round tonight!" Zhu Mingyang looked at the moon in the distance and said thoughtfully.

"Yes! The moonlight is so beautiful! Cui Cui said coquettishly.

"If only the three of us could keep doing this!" Xu Yue'er also hugged Zhu Mingyang tightly.

The night was hazy, and the three of them snuggled together, as if there were only three people in the middle of the night......
