Chapter 161 Reporting

As soon as Zhang Ming thought of this, he was sweating anxiously.

Sweat ran down his festering wounds, and there was a kind of sizzling pain.

He didn't know it.

I couldn't help but think, what should I do?

In Anling Fort, there were only three or five hundred soldiers who could fight. There is even more lack of ships. Can't go out at all. Lighting a beacon fire makes it difficult to convey complex information without prior agreement with the outside world.

Let Zhang Ming watch it, naturally it will not work.

After all, the lives of all of them are at stake in Anlingpu.

Zhang Ming suddenly saw the sparkling waves below, and the wind was blowing northward.

In an instant, Zhang Ming thought of something. Said: "Quick, quick, take the ship out." ”

It is also normal to have this in Anling Fort. It exists as a means of investigation. I haven't used it a few times, though. After all, a long siege was simply not necessary.

Only now did Zhang Ming remember, let people get on the spaceship, cut the rope, float north, and find a way to report to the army.

This method of flying in a hot air balloon has always been tried. But in the end it was not used in the army. There may be rich and noble sons messing around, but it is clear in the army that there are too many uncontrollable places here.

Once the balloon is released, you don't know where it's going.

It is of little use militarily.

Naturally, no one cares.

In He Xi's view, there are very few scientists in Daming who have independent research. These research forces should be focused on more important things. He didn't feel the need to study the controllable direction of hot air balloon flight.

After all, it is controlled by the wind, the air flow, and there are too many restrictions.

And no one is going to look into it.

At this time, Zhang Ming was also a dead horse and became a live horse doctor. As long as it is released, it will be no problem to fly north. As for more questions, Zhang Ming didn't have time to think about it.

Even trying to raise a hot air balloon is not an easy task.

The technology of hot air balloons is already very mature in Daming.

But the problem is that the hot air balloons in Anlingbao are stored in the water.

It's not that Zhang Ming and others specially put the hot air balloon in the water, but after Anling Fort sank into the water, they naturally had to find a way to fish out the important materials from the water and put them in the cave opened from the city wall.

In front of food, gunpowder, coal and other supplies, hot air balloons are waiting to descend.

Or after being fished out of the water.

It took a long time to get it dry before it was baked. But even so, the day had passed, and it was too dangerous to rise into the air in the dark. I had to wait until the next morning, when it was just dawn.

Zhang Ming released the hot air balloon.

Following the morning breeze and sending this hot air balloon to the north, this is all Zhang Ming can do.

Hopefully there will be a good result.

At this time, Fu Youde was already doing the final inspection on the embankment.

For more than ten miles, there are more than a dozen big explosions, and there are even more small explosions.

Fu Youde lowered his head and looked at the opposite side with a clairglass mirror, and could vaguely see a large area of the camp. He said secretly in his heart; "It's a pity. The terrain here is not very suitable. ”

Yes, the land of Hebei is flat.

There are pros and cons to this type of flatland.

In a flood, almost the whole of Hebei became a swamp. But in general, it is not too deep, at most it is only three feet of water on the ground. This also means that the area affected will be very large.

And now the problem is reversed.

As soon as the flood rushes, because there is no shelter, it is impossible for the water to be retained, and the situation of flooding the Seventh Army should not be considered. But that doesn't mean there won't be an impact on the army.

Under the impact of the flood, leaning on the nearest northern army. Perhaps they will all be buried in the flood, as for the northern army farther away. That's not a big problem.

However, this also achieved Fu Youde's goal.

After a flood, there's a big mess north to clean up. The main force of the Southern Army will be able to retreat safely. As for the army that had already detoured to the back, in the face of Fu Youde's army, they didn't dare to make a mistake.

Fu Youde said: "The time is set at noon." ”

"Yes."

------

Ye Shen was restless for a while.

Without him, the attack was too smooth.

Although Fu Youde thought of a lot of ways to distance himself from the Northern Army. But Ye Shen also used a lot of means to make Fu Youde unable to advance or retreat, as if he was a dog skin plaster.

For Ye Shen, sticking to Fu Youde is a victory. Restricting the use of Fu Youde's headquarters, other people from all walks of life have room to play freely.

When Fu Youde's rear is cleaned up, and under the siege of the army, Fu Youde is a monkey, and he has no power to return to the sky.

It's just that the opponent is Fu Youde.

Ye Shen didn't think that Fu Youde didn't know about his schemes.

For the generals below, they may not understand this problem with the overall layout. But Ye Shen and Fu Youde have played so far, and they are almost open cards. They know each other's minds inside and out.

In Ye Shen's opinion, Fu Youde's strong man broke his wrist and left an army, about 350,000, to defend somewhere. Give the Great Army the right to move freely.

But Ye Shen didn't see Fu Youde doing this.

Ye Shen couldn't stop muttering in his heart: "What is Fu Youde doing?" ”

Yes. Fu Youde is not an ordinary person.

Ye Shen didn't think that Fu Youde would be stupid and let him play, in such a situation, Fu Youde must have other plans, so what is this scheme?

Ye Shen couldn't figure it out.

It was precisely because I couldn't figure it out that I felt uneasy in my heart.

"Report." Suddenly, a person came to report and said: "A spaceship was released from Anling Fort and landed more than 30 miles behind, and one of them came to report that Fu Youde was going to blow up the embankment and hit our army with floodwater." ”

Ye Shen listened.

Throw a fit.

In an instant, he completely figured it out.

Ye Shen said secretly in his heart: "It's dark under the light." ”

He deliberately used the embankment besieging Anling Fort as a means of flooding the city, but he never expected that Fu Youde would do so. That's when the power is revealed. To be honest, just as Fu Youde has people in the Northern Army, Ye Shen also has people in the Southern Army.

However, unlike Fu Youde, most of Fu Youde's people in the Northern Army are Fu Youde's own intelligence relationships, while Ye Shen's people in the Southern Army are actually based on the intelligence relationship of the Privy Council.

He is essentially an intelligence network established by He Xi, but he has just passed the front in the Privy Council and has been licensed.

Ye Shen didn't think of this, and since Fu Youde built this embankment, until now, there has never been any news about this in the Southern Army.

It can be seen that Fu Youde is scheming and how strict the secrecy is.

Ye Shen didn't have time to think about it. He immediately prepared to order the retreat of the army.

It was only in the moment of the order that he suddenly thought.

Withdrawal will take time.

It doesn't mean that you can evacuate immediately after you evacuate.

Not to mention that there is a lot of baggage in it.

And Ye Shen was sure that at this time, Fu Youde was staring at him deadly, he dared to evacuate in advance, and Fu Youde would also start in advance.

Ye Shen broke out in a cold sweat for a moment.

For a moment, he couldn't judge how powerful this flood was, but the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command were the elite of the Northern Army.

And the Yugoslav Army remained intact, and the number of victories and defeats in this battle could also be reversed.

"What should I do?" Ye Shen said secretly in his heart.

He lifted the curtain and looked outside, and suddenly saw a boat in the canal.

There are not too many boats in the canal, and that's because before, the Southern army set a lot of fire boats, so much so that the river was blocked. Now it hasn't been cleaned up, it's just the first batch, and the food and baggage sent to it are also artillery gunpowder and the like.

When Ye Shen saw these boats, his heart moved. Immediately there was attention. said: "Command." All the cargo on the ship, no longer need to be unloaded, it is directly propelled into the water, and all the soldiers are now on board immediately. If there are not enough boats, find a way to build a raft. And send an order to the whole army, ready to face the flood. ”

"Ahh The people around me were taken aback.

Marching and fighting the most expensive thing. These burdens cost at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and with an order, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver were smashed into the water. A lot of people can't believe it.

Ye Shen said angrily: "Don't go quickly, the flood is coming soon." ”

"Yes." The people around him immediately agreed.

So, the camp began to get busy.
