In this way, time passed like water, and three months passed.
Wang An completed all the hot air balloons in accordance with the regulations within these 100 days.
Jiangning issued an imperial edict and dispatched 50,000 soldiers from Nanda Camp to go to the Southern Dynasties with military hot air balloons.
After a few months, the military hot air balloons arrived at the northern end of Mingguan River first.
The person responsible for leading the troop transportation this time was Wei Qiong, the commander of Jiang Ning's bodyguards and the Jin Yiwei.
He is dressed in golden armor and has an extremely powerful aura.
Even Shi Gandang and Lei Yi are inferior.
After meeting Wei Qiong, they saluted. After all, Wei Qiong was someone close to the emperor, and they had also heard that Wei Qiong's strength was extraordinary.
It should be respected.
With a smile on her face, Wei Qiong said to Shi Gandang and Lei Yi: "Two generals, my mission has been completed and I will go back now. I hope you two will return victoriously as soon as possible!"
Shi Gandang and Lei Yi nodded, "Don't worry, for sure!"
Wei Qiong and others left just as quickly as they came.
As for the use of military hot air balloons, there are dedicated personnel to teach you.
Soon, both Shi Gandang and Lei Yi had grasped the situation. When they saw this, they were also surprised.
To be honest, they never imagined that Jiang Ning would have such an idea.
"Good boy..." Lei Yi sighed with emotion, "Your Majesty is really a god!"
Shi Gandang also said: "Yes! This allows us to fly directly across the Mingguan River!"
Lei Yi nodded.
The two of them looked at the huge hot air balloon, their hearts trembled, and they were speechless for a long time.
Their worldview was once again refreshed, and they could actually transport troops in this way.
Be obedient...
Of course, then again, hot air balloons can only carry out surprise attacks.
It cannot be used as a long-term troop-carrying weapon.
Because it's unrealistic.
This thing may seem new, but it actually has pros and cons.
When the Wu Dynasty directly attacked Tianguan, if this hot air balloon was used, it would probably become a target for arrows the moment it lifted off.
After Shi Gandang and Lei Yi tested it themselves, they ordered others to learn how to control it.
All the 50,000-strong army with support arrived at the rear.
Shi Gandang started the account.
All the commanders of the army, also known as lieutenants, gathered together.
Shi Gandang said directly: "I called everyone here today. You already understand what I mean!"
"Understood!"
Lei Yi and the others responded in unison.
"Okay, then I won't beat around the bush!" Shi Gandang nodded and punched Mingguan River again, "It's time to attack!"
"Yes, General!"
Shi Gandang added: "If we use a hot air balloon to cross the river during the day, we might become a target, so I decided to do it at night. Do you have any other opinions?"
"No!"
Everyone present spoke with the same voice and shared the same hatred.
"Well, let's start crossing the river tonight!"
Shi Gandang is now full of energy and momentum.
"yes!"
Everyone responds.
Shi Gandang added: "When we successfully seize the bridge head, you can use the three-bow bed crossbow to build a rope bridge. Remember, you must wait for the signal!"
"yes……"
This time, Shi Gandang was still the vanguard, fearless of life and death.
Lei Yi wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by Shi Gandang's eyes.
So, he became a cooperator, waiting for the opportunity to build a wooden bridge... because hot air balloons did not have the conditions to transport large armies.
Late at night, on the vast land at the north end, the hot air balloon was lit and slowly rose into the sky.
After half an hour, they all took off and took advantage of the south wind to float down.
In order to deceive people, the entire hot air balloon was painted black, and even the firelight was covered by black cloth.
Therefore, Shi Gandang and other pioneers crossed the river completely without anyone noticing.
The soldiers riding in the hot air balloon were all extremely curious and excited.
"Holy shit, it's so exciting!"
"It's so cool!"
“It’s so cool!”
"Is this what it feels like to fly to the sky?"
Some soldiers even had other ideas when looking at the hazy south bank below.
"If you drop stones from the sky now, do you think they can scare the Southern Dynasty army to death?"
"Haha, why should I talk about you?"
"It will definitely scare the shit out of them!"
In this way, Shi Gandang led two thousand vanguards and crossed the Mingguan River.
Copy directly.
It can be said that he was completely unaware of it.
Although some people die due to incompetence in hot air balloon rides, this does not affect the vanguard operation.
Shi Gandang and others used the fastest speed to form an array, and checked the equipment. After confirming that it was correct, they launched an attack on the Nanchao military camp.
The opening scene is with rockets...
A wave of two thousand rockets, ten for each person, a total of twenty thousand, were all fired at the Southern Dynasty army camp.
In an instant, fire burst into the fields, and the barracks were set ablaze.
Water and fire were merciless, and the fire broke out and began to wreak havoc.
It was at this moment that the entire Southern Dynasty military camp fell into unprecedented chaos.
As for Shi Gandang, he did not attack immediately because the fire in the Southern Dynasty military camp was too fierce and one of his own could be injured if he was not careful.
So, dormant in the night...
"There's a fire, everyone put out the fire quickly!"
"No, it was the Wu Chao army attacking!"
"Ah... Wu Chao is attacking, everyone, please resist!"
However, the entire military camp was in chaos, and no one was listening at all.
At this time, Xu Mingdong and Gongsun Hong were awakened by the shock. When they rushed out and saw the scene in front of them, their eyes almost fell out of their eyes.
"This..." Xu Mingdong clenched his fists loudly, "This... this Shi Gandang dares to attack with fire!"
"No, our company is in the rear, and their arrows can't reach it..."
When I said this, my heart was shocked.
"No, Prime Minister, quickly organize your troops. The enemy is attacking from behind!"
Gongsun Hong had disheveled hair and a look of embarrassment, and said in a panic: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, the morale of the army is in chaos now, and no one is listening to the command. What should we do?"
Xu Mingdong shouted in a deep voice: "Why panic, fight!"
"Can……"
Now, more than half of the soldiers in the Southern Dynasty military camps are running away and disobeying orders, and they do not look like soldiers at all.
"Asshole, stop it!"
Xu Mingdong shouted angrily.
However, no one listened to him at all, and they all ran away.
Now, Xu Mingdong only has thousands of people left to listen to his orders.
That's right, it was this fire that burned down the Southern Dynasty's army.
Gongsun Hong protected Xu Mingdong and said in a panic: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, we are relieved, please retreat quickly!"
"If we don't withdraw, I'm afraid we won't have a chance!"
Xu Mingdong hesitated for a while, but had no choice but to retreat, "Then...then retreat!"
"Take the small road and return to Beijing!"
He was still thinking about returning to Beijing and fighting to the death with the Wu Chao army...
At the same time, Shi Gandang felt that it was almost the same, so he led the vanguard and rushed into the Southern Dynasty military camp and started a killing spree. Everyone was extremely crazy and murderous.
