King Jiaye XVI was frightened and went crazy, urging various places to quickly send troops to support.

And today's Grand Duchy of Kiev is not in a time of chaos, so it naturally dares not disobey the king's orders.

Soon, after receiving the order, they hurriedly arrived outside the imperial capital with their army.

Seeing the soldiers of the Xinghan Dynasty stationed there, they did not dare to attack.

Because Emperor Jiaye XVI had given stern instructions, he would go into the city first and talk about it. As for the battle, we should wait until the army is gathered to discuss it.

In fact, it was mainly Jiaye XVI who was afraid.

Everyone hasn't arrived yet, so go up and beat the one who comes. What if one of them dies when he comes up?

In the end, didn’t you get yourself killed?

So after much deliberation, it would be better to unite all the armies and think of a way to fight to the death with the opponent.

Soon, the last reinforcements entered the city.

Jiaye XVI breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the troops outside had no intention of stopping him.

He even watched helplessly as these reinforcements entered the city one by one.

This made some generals feel strange and a little confused.

"I always feel that something is wrong with the situation. If it were me, how could I remain indifferent and watch the opponent's reinforcements increase in number? How could I say that I should send troops?

Surround them and harass them, right?"

The general came to the city wall and looked at the camp in the distance. He had some clues and felt something was wrong in his heart.

A general who came up with him also nodded slightly when he heard this.

"Yeah, when I entered the city before, I also saw an enemy spy. The other party just watched us enter the city. He seemed quite happy. He counted the number of reinforcements on our side. I felt strange when he looked at us.

of."

As soon as these words came out, the expression of the general on the side became even more gloomy.

What he said really made him feel extremely weird, and he had no idea what the hell the other party was doing.

At this moment, the sun has gradually set, and it can be clearly seen here that some bright lights seem to be gradually lighting up in the other party's camp.

"What is that thing? It doesn't look like a bonfire?"

Looking at the fire over there, one person asked in confusion.

"Oh, it's probably the other party's hot air balloon. I heard about it before. It's a thing that can fly into the sky. It's fine."

Someone on the side heard this, looked at it carefully, and waved his hand nonchalantly, indicating that this thing was nothing and there was no need to worry about it.

After hearing this, the person who asked the question immediately nodded and stopped paying attention to this matter.

Since everyone else said everything was fine, then there really shouldn't be any problem.

I just don't know why, but when he looked at the things over there, he still felt that something was wrong.

At this moment, at the camp, Bai Yi looked at the open space where countless hot air balloons had begun to prepare.

There is also neatly arranged kerosene on the side.

This imperial capital is extremely huge. I'm afraid it will take off several times tonight and pour all the kerosene into it.

Based on observations in the past few days, all the reinforcements that the other party can come to should have arrived, and there should be no reinforcements in the future.

If so, we can start taking action tonight.

Kerosene began to be carried into baskets, and the soldiers began to work.

After waiting for so many days, it was finally time to take action. To be honest, they had been waiting for a long time.

"There have been too many soldiers coming recently. They are all crowded together, and the big camp inside is extremely crowded. We will attack this place first when the time comes."

According to the plan, the general and the soldiers explained the plan for today's action.

This is a combat strategy they made in recent days based on the layout of the opponent's camp and the intelligence they obtained.

The soldiers listened and nodded repeatedly, indicating that they already knew how to deal with it.

Seeing that the soldiers were all aware of it, the general stopped talking nonsense.

Time passes little by little.

Flying over a hot air balloon is actually quite troublesome. There are a lot of things to check and preparations to make.

By the time we were ready, the moon had already risen high.

Then, at the command, the hot air balloon slowly took off and disappeared into the dark night. From a distance, it just looked like a star.

Bai Yi looked at this scene, looked at the city wall in the distance, and curled his lips.

With this thing, it is indeed much more convenient to attack cities and so on.

At least it's not like before, when you would risk your own soldiers' lives to fill such a hole.

Now that the hot air balloon is flying up, the kerosene will be poured into it, enough for the other party to drink a pot.

When the time comes to attack with artillery, you will definitely be able to defeat the opponent.

In this way, the next thing will be much simpler.

You just need to do the finishing work, and there will basically be no problems.

Some of the soldiers guarding the city in the distance saw the hot air balloon taking off.

Since I have met him many times before and I haven't seen any threat from him, I don't care anymore.

In the dark night, the soldiers on the hot air balloon began to pour the kerosene down little by little.

This is towards the opponent's barracks.

Over the past few days, the other side has received support from many soldiers. Roughly calculated, the number of the other side's soldiers has reached as many as half a million!

This is an extremely terrifying amount, and at a glance you can see the densely packed camps below.

Jiaye XVI was extremely happy at this time.

This is because so many reinforcements have arrived.

Even if the enemy troops outside are powerful, they can't possibly defeat so many people!

Tomorrow, he will be ready to attack, letting all the soldiers charge and defeat the opponent directly!

The opponent's artillery is indeed powerful.

But if you rush into the opponent's camp, the opponent's artillery will be just a decoration.

This is the solution that his men observed.

This thing can't always be used in a battle?

In addition, the opponent did not wear any armor, so if it was a close combat, they would still have a lot of advantages.

Therefore, he felt that an army of 500,000 was enough to fight the opponent!

After defeating the opponent's main force and capturing the opponent's weapons, you will be able to fight back.

When he thought of this, Jiaye XVI, who was sitting on the throne at the moment, felt even more happy.

But very quickly, a guard hurried in at this moment, with an unspeakable look of fear on his face.

"Oh no, the enemy is coming!"

The guard's face was full of panic, as if he had seen something extremely frightening at this moment.

When Emperor Jiaye XVI heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly, "What are you afraid of? We have so many troops! Moreover, we didn't hear any cannon fire. How could the other party come in?"

Although Emperor Jiaye XVI didn't know much about fighting, he still knew a little bit about the truth, that is, why would he choose to attack a city at night?

If it were a sneak attack in the early morning, that would be fine.

But at this time, it was just dark, so a sneak attack was completely impossible!

The guard looked horrified, "The opponent's hot air balloon, the opponent's hot air balloon sprinkled a lot of kerosene, and burned our entire military camp!"

The guard stood in the palace and could see a fire in the camp in the distance. After getting the information, he immediately panicked.

No one thought that a hot air balloon, which originally looked harmless to humans and animals, could actually have such great power, and they immediately started using it to attack.

Jiaye XVI was stunned when he heard this.

"What did you say, kerosene?"

He knew about this thing. He had purchased some before and used them to suppress the rebels. It was extremely useful.

But, how could this thing end up in the camp?

"The hot air balloon, the opponent used steam balls to carry kerosene, and then dumped it into the camp!"

The guard said breathlessly.

Jiaye XVI's body swayed, and then he ran outside in a panic.

Soon, he could clearly see the fire spreading in the distance.
