Chapter 673
Wang Xuance was in the Mongolian army camp, but it was extremely difficult to contact Zhuge Liang. If he was accidentally discovered by the Mongols, he would die.

But Kong Ming was a genius. He discovered that by making a square frame from bamboo, pasting it with a layer of rice paper, and putting candles or oil lamps on it, it can fly into the sky.

The two agreed in advance that if Wang Xuance succeeded in instigating against the leaders of the Western Regions, they would put up a Kongming lantern to report the news.In order to let the scouts sent by Zhuge Liang see it, Wang Xuance released three in a row. After the Kongming lanterns flew into the sky, they could be seen for dozens of miles nearby.

Fortunately, it was late at night, and most of the Mongolian soldiers and horses were asleep. No one noticed when they put the lights on, and they looked like stars after being lifted into the sky, which did not attract the attention of the Mongolians.

But the scouts sent by Zhuge Liang were dedicated to observing the sky and looking for Kongming Lanterns. When the Kongming Lanterns were lifted into the sky, these scouts noticed it at a glance.

"Great, Mr. Wang succeeded, let's go back and inform the governor!" When the scout saw the sky lantern rising, he hurried back to Shangbang to inform Li Xianzhong.

In Shangbang City, Li Xianzhong received the news from the scouts and immediately summoned the generals to inquire about the next move.The strategy was proposed by Zhuge Liang, and of course Zhuge Liang still needs to talk about the specific actions.

Everyone looked at Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang cupped his hands and said, "Commander, first of all, we must spread the news to Jincheng so that General Cao Mengde can better cooperate with our army!"

Li Xianzhong nodded and said: "Which general dares to go to Jincheng to deliver a letter to Governor Cao?"

"Captain, the last general is willing to give it a try!" Gao Siji cupped his hands and walked out.

"Okay, since General Gao is willing to take on this important task, I will entrust this matter to you!" Li Xianzhong nodded, knowing that Gao Sike could fight Lu Bu for a hundred rounds, if he could not take on this important task , I am afraid that no one has this ability.

Zhuge Liang shook his head again and again and said: "Our army's road to Jincheng has been blocked by the Mongolian army and Yizhou soldiers and horses. How easy is it to reach Jincheng? If you encounter Lu Bu on the road, and there are other soldiers and horses besieged, how can you break out of the encirclement? "

Gao Siji laughed loudly and said, "Don't worry about Kong Ming, I dare to go with thousands of troops, not to mention that once Governor Cao receives the news, he will definitely send troops to support me!"

"General Gao doesn't need to take risks, I have a way to send the news to Jincheng!" Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

"Oh? Is it possible that Kong Ming can still fly?" Gao Siji disagreed.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Have you forgotten the Kongming lantern I gave Wang Xuance? I used this lantern to convey news to him!"

Li Xianzhong was very surprised: "Although your Kongming Lantern can fly into the sky, it is not stable. How can you make it fly to Jincheng accurately?"

"The general is wrong. It can land in Jincheng City accurately. As long as the right amount of kerosene is used, and with the help of the wind, I can let the Kongming Lantern fly over the Mongolian Yizhou army and fly into Jincheng!"

Li Xianzhong shook his head repeatedly and laughed: "Kong Ming, you don't know, Jincheng is in the northwest direction of our army. These days, it has been blowing northwest. If you put the lantern, he will only blow towards us. How can it fall?" Go to Jincheng?"

Zhuge Liang is full of confidence: "Liang watched the stars last night, and it is predicted that the wind direction will change to the southeast in the afternoon tomorrow. If the lights are put on at that time, we will definitely fall into Jincheng!"

Li Xianzhong: "..."

Good northwest wind, you watch the sky at night and change it as soon as it changes?Li Xianzhong obviously does not believe that Zhuge Liang has this ability

Xie Xuan clasped his hands and said: "General, Kong Ming knows a thing or two about celestial phenomena. When we were both in Wudang Academy, he often guessed the changes of celestial phenomena, and he hit everything!"

Li Xianzhong was shocked: "I don't want Kong Ming, you still have this ability, but if you just use the Kongming lantern to deliver the message, the Mongols must be aware of it. If they are shot down by them, how can the information fall into their hands?"

Zhuge Liang explained with a smile: "Don't worry, Dudu, this lamp has to be extremely high. I'm afraid only the archery skills of Dudu Xue can hit it. I will write the news on the lamp, and when the fire oil burns out, it will naturally fall into Jincheng Among them, but if it is shot down, the lampshade will also burn, so even if the Mongols are aware of it, they will not be able to find out the news by shooting the fallen leaves."

Hearing what Zhuge Liang said, Li Xianzhong was relieved, anyway, the wind direction will be changed tomorrow, let Kong Ming try it.If it succeeds, there is no need to let Gao Siji take risks, if not, then let Gao Siji deliver the letter.

"Forget it, I'll let you try it, General Gao, and you will protect Kong Ming before setting off the lantern!" Li Xianzhong ordered.

"No!" The two bowed their hands and accepted the order.

Shangbang is located in Tianshui, Tianshui and Longxi stand side by side, while Jincheng is located in the north of Longxi County and northwest of Jincheng County.

Now Yizhou soldiers and horses joined the Mongolian army, a total of 25 horses, and Cao Cao retreated to Jincheng.Jincheng is located in the easternmost part of Jincheng County, very close to Tianshui County.

But Shangbang is hundreds of miles away from Jincheng, so it is naturally impossible for Zhuge Liang to light up lights in Shangbang.Even if Zhuge Liang is resourceful, he does not have the ability to accurately predict where the Kongming lantern will fall hundreds of miles away.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang had to go to the border of Tianshui County, which was very close to Jincheng and belonged to the sphere of influence of the Han army, and there were relatively few Mongolian spies.

Under the protection of Gao Siji, Zhuge Liang secretly came to a high mountain on the border of Tianshui. At this time, the wind direction had changed, and it was the southeast wind.

The Kongming lantern that Zhuge Liang brought was not small, about one square meter in size, with a message written by Li Xianzhong himself on the pasted paper, and there was enough lamp oil inside the lamp.

Gao Siji worried: "Kong Ming, are you sure this lantern can fly to Jincheng?"

Zhuge Liang nodded firmly and said: "That's right. I tried it many times in Wudang Academy, and I calculated the lamp oil in it. When the lamp oil is exhausted, it will slowly land, and the landing point is Jincheng !"

"What about the wind? Won't it blow it down?"

Zhuge Liang explained: "I put a layer of tung oil on the paper, but not much, it can resist the strong wind without breaking. But once it is hit by an arrow, it can still burn, absolutely safe!"

Gao Siji's eyes were full of curiosity: "Then ask Kong Ming to light up the lamp, and let me learn a lot!"

The two came to the open place on the top of the mountain, Zhuge Liang lit the lamp, and as expected, the Kongming lantern slowly rose into the sky, and flew towards Jincheng with the help of the southeast wind.

Zhuge Liang pointed in the direction of Jincheng and said: "Jincheng is just behind the big mountain there. After flying to the top of the mountain, it will slowly descend and then fall into Jincheng!"

Gao Siji nodded and looked at it expectantly.

At the same time, inside the Mongolian army camp outside Jincheng City, it was very lively.

It turned out that Tuo Lei and Sima Yi advocated destroying Li Xianzhong's troops first, and were attacking Cao Cao, but Li Xianzhong's troops did not come to support for a long time, and they have been standing still for the past few days, which made Lu Bu angry.

Since Lu Bu awakened the attribute of revenge, his power surge has been supercilious. During this period of time, he has never been close to women, nor has he been drinking too much. His basic force has also reached the peak state of 101 points. Top form ten years ago.

With this surge in strength, Lu Bu regained his confidence. If Li Xianzhong does not come, then he will fight Cao Cao. With me, Lu Bu, what are you afraid of?
But Sima Yi insisted on attacking Li Xianzhong's troops first. Lv Bu had no choice but to get the Mongolian army camp, and wanted to use some force to get the Mongolians to agree to his request.

In the tent, Lu Bu Dao explained the intention of coming: "Tuo Lei, Li Xianzhong has not come here for a long time, probably because he is afraid of the strength of our coalition forces and dare not come to support. In this case, we can fight Cao Cao first. It is so difficult for us to transport grain and grass in Yizhou , but there is no time to wait!"

"Bold, what do you dare to be so arrogant?" Lu Bu was so arrogant, but he angered one person in the tent.

The original Kudachi, Giselle, and Wharton were masters from the countries of the Western Regions, and the three of them were from the countries of the Northern Province.In fact, there are two other masters that Tuo Lei searched for in the Western Regions, but they do not belong to the pro-Mongolian country.

One of them was An Jingyuan, a native of Cheshiguo on the North Road. When Banchao was envoy to the Western Regions, he once opened up the two stations on the North Road, and Cheshiguo was once controlled by a big man.They naturally also knew that the big man was good, but then the North Road was lost again. After the big man lost control, he fell into the control of the Huns.

But now that the Mongols are so cruel, the people of Che Shi Kingdom think of the great man again.

And the other is a fierce general of the Shanshan Kingdom in the South Dao, named Mu Li.Although Che Shi belonged to Bei Dao, Tuo Lei still classified him as a pro-Han country.Therefore, the last time Tuolei raided Zhao Yun's tribe, he only sent three strong generals who were pro-Mongol, including Hudachi and Giselle, while the southern countries were more pro-Han. Therefore, it is not very useful.

However, Lu Bu's arrogance angered An Jingyuan. An Jingyuan was eight feet tall, with big shoulders and a round waist, holding a one-legged bronze spear.

The spear is eight feet long, so it is called a lance, and a lance is actually a spear, like Zhang Fei's Zhangba Snake Spear, which is actually a lance.

In addition, there are many weapons with strange shapes, also known as lances, such as Zaoyang lance, which is like a mace, and the one-legged bronze man is a strange weapon.

This kind of weapon cannot be used unless it is extremely powerful. If you pinch the copper foot and use it to smash it, an ordinary strong man weighs about 130 catties, but this bronze man is heavier, not to mention one leg, at least three About a hundred catties, what kind of strength should a person who can use this weapon have?
Lu Bu immediately glared at An Jingyuan and shouted coldly: "I am Lu Bu, the number one warrior in the world, what are you, dare to yell at me?"

"The best general in the world? I heard that you even had a tie with Yang Zaixing, Xue Rengui who single-handedly defeated the four great generals in Hebei, and Zhao Yun who defeated the three great generals in the Western Regions by himself a few days ago. You have not defeated either , dare to pretend to be number one in the world?" An Jingyuan, who had a good understanding of the situation of the big man and fierce general, looked at Lu Bu and said sarcastically.

Tuo Lei frowned, and said in his heart: "This An Jingyuan really can't be used much. I heard that he has always admired Chinese culture, but now he is so precious to big men and fierce generals. We have to guard against it."

Furious, Lu Bu rushed straight towards An Jingyuan with a stride.
