Chapter 178: Kongming Lantern Appearing in Advance
"My lord, Mr. Datong, how can Zilong Cao Mang dare to sacrifice his blood to save his life?"
"My lord and I share the same blood, and we must fight to the death to repay this kindness!"
As soon as Zhao Yun entered the door, he knelt down in front of Fang Guang's bed, with a look of shame on his face as he spoke.
The governor of Dongjun, who was originally smiling, suddenly became serious after hearing Zhao Yun's words.
"Zilong, I saved your life because I want you, a worldly hero, to live well in heaven and earth, to live a long life, to be full of descendants, and to see the Han Dynasty regain stability in the world and look down on all directions!"
"Stop talking about fighting to the death. You and I will all assist the eldest son and live well!"
Fang Guang looked at Cao Ang, and there was a deep meaning in his words. Mr. Cao Cao understood the meaning of his words, and his face became rosy as if he had drunk wine.
"Yuanzhi, how is the military situation? The Yellow Turbans are powerful. Shouldn't we stay here and wait for reinforcements? Is it because there is not enough water and we can't contact Gan Ning and Qu Yi?"
"Datong, the water source of Wubao has been cut off by the Yellow Turbans. There are many more Yellow Turban troops under the city. He Yi's flags have all appeared here!"
"They came with all their strength to break the fort and establish their power. I thought, why should I send the news out? Several times the dead soldiers clashed, but they were blocked!"
"No, Zilong's health has improved a little, so he asked Ying to go out to fight. Then he put it on and you woke up!"
Xu Shu explained the current situation one by one. Fang Guang heard that He Yi had also arrived and knew that Pei Yuanshao's death had stimulated the last yellow turban boss in Yingchuan.
"Zilong, are you addicted to playing among thousands of troops and strolling in the courtyard?"
"A man will not walk lightly into dangerous places, and he must not go wild. It is not just to deliver a message, but someone has to rush out to deliver it. I have a method. If someone is in the city, the message can be sent hundreds of miles away!"
"Why does Zilong need to rush into battle and risk his life? He Yi is here just in time to kill all the traitors at once so that Yuzhou can be built!"
A cold light flashed in Fang Guang's eyes. He still missed his old feelings towards the Yellow Turban Army and became a little softer. Now it seems that the Yuzhou Yellow Turbans will still be top-notch thieves if their leaders are not removed.
He wanted to convince people with reason, but he was more romantic.
"Ah? You can send messages to Ganning, Quyi and Guanhai without leaving Wubao?"
"Exactly, Guangyuan, our army must have a lot of paper with us. Take a hundred sheets, describe the situation here one by one, and write it down for later use!"
"Xu Ding, I saw in Wubao that some people were preparing thin bamboo strips to weave bamboo baskets."
"I want you to choose someone who is clever and crafty, use bamboo strips, add bamboo paper, weave a bamboo lantern frame, paste it with paper, and then hang a bamboo basket under the bamboo lantern!"
Fang Guang gave instructions casually, and Xu Ding listened. Although he kept making promises, his eyes were dull, and it was obvious that he could no longer understand Fang Guang's words.
The governor of Dongjun chuckled. At this moment, Da Qiao seemed to be connected with him. He took a pen and paper from the desk in the room and handed it to Fang Guang on the bed.
Da Qiao approached, Fang Guang's heart moved, and he took a deep breath. Sure enough, the aroma was rich, and there were still some differences between his sister and his sister.
Fang Guang gathered his mind and made some drawings on the paper. In less than a moment, the Kongming Lantern, which was more than ten years ahead of Zhuge Liang, appeared in the world!
The Kongming Lantern is in this world, and it is destined to no longer be called the Kongming Lantern. If it is not the Datong Lantern, it will be called the Qilin Lantern in the future.
When Xu Ding saw Fang Guang finish the painting, his eyes lit up, he took the bamboo paper and strode out. In Fang Guang's ears, Shi Guangyuan's excited voice came.
"Datong, I understand, isn't this Mancang Academy, what about physics?"
"Place candles in the bamboo basket, and the air of the void will be heated and expand, driving the bamboo lanterns to rise to the sky. Hundreds of bamboo lanterns will carry the message here. Even if most of them will be burned, one or two lamps will reach the hands of the people!"
"Everyone in Gan Ning will know the information here, right? Physics is indeed the foundation of the world!"
"I understand too, I understand too. No matter how many Yellow Turban soldiers and horses there are, my lamp is pointing to the sky and my bow and arrow cannot reach it. No matter how many thieves there are, it is useless!"
Next to Shi Tao, Xu Shu also instantly understood the meaning of Fang Guang's drawings.
Fang Guang nodded with a smile. Mancang Academy has been promoting natural science for only one year, but now it seems that it has been quite effective.
Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao looked at the counselor in the room with excited faces, looked at each other, and chuckled at the same time, revealing four pear dimples.
The two women beside Sun Ce had also seen the little overlord of Jiangdong use his troops. What did the counselor say and what did Sun Ce do?
When we arrived at Fang Guang's place, it was the lord who acted as the guide and the counselor who acted as the guide, which was completely different from Jiangdong.
Seeing the cook feeding Fang Guang rice porridge with some rough movements, Da Qiao couldn't help but take the porridge bowl and feed the girl.
Xiao Qiao also smiled and helped her sister pass water and bowls.
Everyone in the room saw at a glance that it was a critical moment for Datong to pick up girls. Everyone understood that Xu Shu was the first to leave the room, and Zhao Yun, who was the last to wake up, was pulled by Cao Ang. Everyone quietly left together.
Half an hour later, Fang Guang, with a red face, walked out of the house with the two girls.
The bamboo lantern was very simple to make, with thin bamboo strips and paper ready-made. In half an hour, the Kongming lantern was ready. Under the lantern, a square candle glowed red and yellow in the night, which was very magnificent.
Everyone was waiting for the letter of help written by Shi Tao. When the letter arrived, the soldiers quickly tied the letter on the bamboo strips. Everyone looked at Fang Guang.
"Light the fire!" Fang Guang gave the order, and hundreds of Kongming lanterns were released by the soldiers at the same time.
At night, there are hundreds of flowers in the sky in Xu County, and there is even more joy in the Wubao.
Among the people, Xiao Qiao danced the highest, and the girl's little hands turned red. The two sisters had only been here for a few days, but they felt that they could see something new here every day.
Just like in Journey to the West, one day in Yuzhou is equivalent to one year in Wu County!
In the Yellow Turban Formation, Zhou Cang stood beside He Yi, pointing at Xujiawu Fort, telling what happened that day.
He Yi arrived during the day and brought Yingchuan Yellow Turban and all the soldiers!
Pei Yuanshao died in battle, Liu Pi was beheaded, and Liu Xun became Fang Guang's lackey, recruiting soldiers and horses everywhere in Yingchuan. In He Yi's view, even if the Yellow Turbans were destroyed, Fang Guang was the one who must be killed.
According to historical records, after He Yi was defeated by Cao Ca, he surrendered immediately without saying a word.
In this world, this Yellow Turban Qu Shuai was stunned.
"He Shuai, just look at it. The water in Xujiawu Fort has been cut off. They have been thirsty for a few days. Even if they can fight, they may not be able to wield the gun!"
"That Fang Guang and the young white-robed general who broke into the city are indeed brave enough to be brave, but I have already dug three trenches behind the formation!"
"Not even the rats or rabbits of Cao Cao's army can escape from here. This time, Cao Cao's East Commandery governor may have to be replaced!"
"Okay, I have contacted Liu Biao of Jingzhou. If we kill Fang Guang, we can lead people across the river. After all, if you are a hundred thousand strong, there will always be a place for you!"
He Yi listened to Zhou Cang's words and nodded repeatedly. Suddenly, the Yellow Turban Qushuai was stunned, and all the Yellow Turban troops were also stunned.
In front of Xujiawu Fort, countless light and electricity lights, like stars returning to their positions, rise from the city and go straight to the sky, being blown in all directions by the night wind.
Zhou Cang said that rats and rabbits cannot come out, which is indeed true. Birds and phoenixes are not something that the Yellow Turban Army can stop!
