"Your Majesty, Hai Dongqing cannot be seen at night..."
The guard captain answered cautiously.
Upon hearing this, Shanyu's face suddenly became very ugly.
When he first formulated the Haidongqing plan, he knew about this fatal flaw, so Shanyu united with King Jin and Dangxiang to prepare to destroy Jin Feng as quickly as possible to prevent him from discovering this flaw.
In recent days, Liu Tie has been on the defensive and has never counterattacked, which made the Eastern Barbarian Shanyu secretly happy.
But who would have known that only two days later, Liu Tie would find this flaw.
Shanyu gritted his teeth and asked, "Where's the nighthawk? Why don't you let it out?"
Knowing that there were loopholes in the plan, Shanyu began to tame the nighthawk a long time ago so that he could make up for the last shortcoming.
The so-called nighthawk is an owl.
Although the owl has a silly look and its big round face looks cute and cute, it is actually a real bird of prey, and it is an extremely ferocious type of raptor.
Because of its night vision, owls are bullied by other raptors during the day and will take revenge at night.
Even a ruthless character like Hai Dongqing is no match for Owl at night.
Every year countless other raptors die under the owl's talons on the grassland.
Owls can not only see at night, but also have extremely sensitive senses of smell and hearing. Before humans die, they will emit a unique smell that cannot be detected by the human sense of smell, but owls can smell it, and then they will fly near the house.
, making a unique sound.
Generally, after hearing this sound, the patient in this family will die soon.
Coupled with the owl's strange appearance and its habit of staying up and coming out at night, people think it is an ominous bird and will drive it away when they see it.
The Eastern Barbarians have a very long history of domesticating Haidongqing or other falcons, eagles, and vultures. Many of the Eastern Barbarian nobles carry an eagle on their shoulders when they go out.
It is precisely because of this that the Eastern Barbarian Chanyu was able to find so many Haidongqing in such a short period of time.
But even among the Eastern Barbarians, who have such a long history of making eagles, few people tame owls.
Because they represent ominousness, everyone avoids them, and who is willing to take the initiative to provoke them?
Under this circumstance, the previous method of domesticating other falcons was very ineffective against owls, and the domestication work has not been going very smoothly.
However, in order to prevent Liu Tie and others from launching attacks at night, the Eastern Barbarian Chanyu still brought a few owls with him during this southern expedition to let them get used to the sounds of the battlefield while continuing to tame them.
A few days ago Master Yaoying came to report, saying that he had made some breakthroughs recently and that he was about to find a way to tame the nighthawk.
But today the enemy hit him on the head and he didn't see Nighthawk coming out, which made the Eastern Barbarian Chanyu very angry.
"Report to the King, both Adamu and Nighthawk were killed..."
The guard captain said helplessly.
The tent of the Eagle Cooker was near the forage yard. When the pilot went to burn the forage yard, he saw the tent and thought it contained supplies such as grain or kerosene, so he threw a few grenades down.
The Eagle Master and several tied owls were killed on the spot.
After listening to this, Shanyu Dongman could not help but cover his forehead in annoyance.
Hai Dongqing couldn't see him at night, and Nighthawk was blown up again. Can he just watch the enemy's hot air balloon do his bidding above his head?
The feeling of powerlessness he felt when he first saw the hot air balloon came back to him.
There are obviously thousands of troops, but they can only let the bodyguards bombard them back and forth. This feeling is too frustrating for Shanyu who has been fighting for a lifetime.
"No, I can't give in no matter what I say this time!"
The Eastern Man Shanyu stood up and walked out of the tent.
"Your Majesty, it's dangerous outside, you'd better come back!"
The guard captain quickly stopped him, but Shan Yu had already opened the tent and walked out.
Watching the firelight illuminate half of the sky red, a black hot air balloon was slowly rising into the sky.
In order to attack Yuguan City, he gathered dozens of tribes, large and small.
In order to make these tribes work hard, their horses, cattle and sheep were also brought here. Anyone who dared to be a deserter on the battlefield would have their cattle and sheep confiscated directly.
The horses, cattle and sheep of dozens of tribes combined are much more than the number of people.
Now that the fodder is burned, what will the horses, cattle and sheep eat?
Even if Yuguan City was finally captured, the losses would be too great.
Shanyu felt that his heart was bleeding and he wished he had wings and could fly over and pull down the hot air balloon.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in Dongman Shanyu's mind, and he pulled the guard captain and shouted: "Quickly, go inform Abu and release Hai Dongqing. While you can still see it, go and tear up this hot air balloon."
!”
When the guard captain heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Now that the fire is soaring into the sky, and the height of the hot air balloon is still within the range of the fire, can't Hai Dongqing be able to see it?
Thinking of this, the guard captain rushed out on horseback.
A moment later, three seaweeds roared off from a large tent and rushed into the air.
On the hot air balloon, the main controller and his deputy were staring happily at the sea of fire below, when they suddenly saw three black spots flying out of the Dongman camp and rushing towards them quickly.
"Brother, rise quickly, Hai Dongqing is here!"
The deputy took out the hand crossbow and roared angrily.
He didn't need to remind him, the main controller was already stepping on the bellows, and his hands were not idle, scooping up hot oil and pouring it on the stove.
Hoo ho ho!
Flames shot out as high as two people, and the hot air balloon quickly took off.
However, no matter how fast the hot air balloon is, it is not as fast as the sea turtle. In just ten seconds, three sea turtles surrounded it.
Perhaps because it was night, Hai Dongqing did not dare to go to a place that was too dark, so he circled around a place not far from the hanging basket.
"Die to me!"
As a sea turtle passed in front of him, the deputy roared and pulled the trigger.
Whoosh!
The arrow flashed past and hit the Haidongqing's armpit.
Chirp!
Hai Dongqing, who was shot, let out a scream and fell down.
The death of their companion stimulated the remaining two sea greens. One of them turned around and flew downward, while the other flapped its wings and flew upward.
When passing by the hot air balloon bag, I stretched out my paw to scratch it.
Perhaps because it was too dark to see clearly at high altitude, or perhaps because it was afraid of arrows, the sea turtle only scratched it, tore a small hole out of the hot air balloon and then flew away.
The two pilots were heartbroken at this moment and quickly looked up.
I saw a large hole more than 20 centimeters long on the right side of the hot air balloon.
What made them relieved was that the opening was located in the middle and lower part of the balloon.
If the top is scratched, even a small hole will be torn open by the airflow and turn into a big hole.
At that time, the hot air balloon will fall quickly.
The opening is located in the middle and lower part of the balloon, so the force is relatively small and it will not fall rapidly for the time being.
But as time goes by, the hole will definitely get bigger and bigger, and there may be a risk of falling at any time.
"Brother, what should we do now?" the deputy asked.
