Upon hearing this, Huo Qubing's eyes widened immediately.
However, he soon realized that Jiang Tian's words were completely unbelievable.
This towering mountain is not something you can just fly up to.
Besides, they're not birds.
"My lord, please stop teasing me. I'll think of another way."
Jiang Tian patted Huo Qubing on the shoulder: "These next few days, you must not be idle. You cannot let the Xiongnu people on the mountain get a good rest. Every half hour, you must beat drums and gongs and shout towards the mountain."
"My lord, why is this?" Huo Qubing was puzzled.
With no hope of attacking the mountain, this strategy of exhausting the troops will ultimately be ineffective.
"Feign an attack to prevent them from resting."
"But how do we launch an attack on the mountain?"
"Huo Qubing, have you forgotten how I saved you?"
"I will never forget your life-saving grace, my lord."
Jiang Tian pointed to the towering mountaintop: "If I jump out of the Xiongnu capital from that mountaintop, I will be able to fly from this flat ground to the mountaintop."
Although Huo Qubing didn't know what Jiang Tian was planning, he thought about it again and realized that Jiang Tian was exceptionally capable and might actually be able to get them to the Xiongnu's sacred sacrificial site.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will arrange it immediately." Huo Qubing turned around and roared, "Soldiers, listen to my command! Every half hour, beat the drums, blow the horns, and shout loudly, so that they will not have a moment's peace."
Soon, the war drums thundered and the horns blared, soaring into the sky.
"Kill! Soldiers, storm the mountaintop and destroy the Xiongnu Chanyu!"
"Charge up the mountain and destroy their sacred site for worshipping heaven."
"Soldiers, charge!"
Because it was nighttime, the sound traveled very far, and even those people at the sacred site of the Xiongnu's sacrificial ceremony could hear it clearly.
At this moment, the Xiongnu Chanyu and his men were dozing off when they suddenly heard the deafening sound of war drums and the soaring sound of horns.
These guys were instantly wide awake.
"These ignorant and reckless people from Great Xia actually chose to attack at night."
"Pass down the order: fire arrows down the mountain to block the mountain road and prevent any Xia people from entering the sacred site for the Heaven-worship ceremony."
At the command of the Xiongnu Chanyu, all the Xiongnu cavalrymen at the sacred site of the sacrificial ceremony sprang into action.
Loud horn sounds also rang out from the sacred site of the Xiongnu's heaven-worship ceremony.
"Loose the arrows..." With a loud shout, countless arrows rained down.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
However, these arrows only hit nothing.
Countless huge rocks and logs were pushed down the mountain, crashing down the narrow path.
Half an hour later, the Huns realized that no one was attacking them at all.
They were all furious.
"Have we been tricked by the Great Xia people?"
"What skills do those beasts have to fight up here? I'm going to sleep, damn it, I'm so sleepy."
“We fired thousands of arrows, and they all fell into the hands of the Xia cavalry.”
Jiang Tian looked at the mountain where the fighting had subsided and nodded in satisfaction: "Continue the feigned attack in a while."
After Jiang Tian finished speaking, he pointed to the mountain and said to Qin Hongyu, "Young lady, you have to build me 500 hot air balloons within five days."
Qin Hongyu had no idea what Jiang Tian was up to.
But this young girl knew that Jiang Tian would definitely have a way to take down the Xiongnu's sacred sacrificial site.
"I dare not disobey my master's orders."
"As expected of my little wife." Jiang Tian embraced Qin Hongyu and mounted his horse. "Let's go back to the royal city."
Qin Hongyu nodded repeatedly.
"Huo Qubing, in five days, follow me to attack the sacred site of the Xiongnu's sacrificial ceremony." After Jiang Tian finished speaking, he put his legs on the horse's belly and hugged Qin Hongyu as they headed straight for the Xiongnu capital.
A night breeze caressed their faces as the man and woman on horseback indulged in endless daydreams.
"Brother, this road is long, shouldn't we do something?" Qin Hongyu, the young girl, said, her face turning red.
"Of course." Jiang Tian's hands quickly became restless.
The 100 escorting cavalrymen had no choice but to follow at a distance.
An hour later.
Dawn breaks in the east.
Qin Hongyu, the young girl, tidied up her disheveled hair and clothes.
"How was it? Doesn't it feel different on horseback?" Jiang Tian asked with a mischievous grin.
"It feels ten times better than being in a carriage." Qin Hongyu was petite and affectionate; this young girl possessed boundless tenderness.
"Do as I say, let's hurry into the city and mobilize all the girls. I want to build 500 hot air balloons within five days."
The little girl nodded vigorously.
Sure enough, once Qin Hongyu was full, she did everything in a soft and gentle voice.
…………
The capital of the Xiongnu.
Li Guang also rescued more than 2,000 people from the Xia Dynasty.
“Girls,” Qin Hongyu went directly to the girls who were making parachutes.
"Lord Jiang used the parachutes you made to capture the capital. Now, Lord Jiang wants us to continue sewing hot air balloons."
These girls were all full of passion.
They never imagined that a little sewing and patching would help the army storm the Xiongnu capital.
This time, Jiang Tian was leading a large army to attack the sacred site of the Xiongnu's sacrificial ceremony, and these girls were determined to do their best.
Qin Hongyu personally led more than a hundred well-bred young ladies who were literate and numerate to Jiang Tian.
"Brother, all these girls have arrived. General Li Guang rescued more than two thousand people. I brought them here immediately. Just tell me what you need them for."
Qin Hongyu, this young girl, is indeed worthy of having served in the rebel army, and even becoming a general.
This young girl is definitely skilled at organizing girls.
"Come, come, girls, come here. The thing we're going to sew this time is a little more complicated than before."
Jiang Tian started drawing on the ground.
This hot air balloon is like a giant pocket.
Jiang Tian explained the shape and size of the hot air balloon, then glanced at the girls and asked, "Girls, do you all understand?"
All of the more than one hundred girls nodded repeatedly.
For these girls who can embroider with needles, this requires no skill at all.
"Sir, we don't need five days, three days is enough."
"Three days would be best, but I'll give you five days so you can do more."
"yes……"
Qin Hongyu brought the two thousand people of Daxia with her. If the Xiongnu people were to make good use of the people of Daxia, then these people of Daxia would only be one kind of people... skilled craftsmen.
The reason these two thousand people were able to survive, and even live reasonably well, is because they all possessed a skill.
"I need a carpenter. If you're a carpenter, raise your hand so I can see it," Jiang Tian shouted to the crowd.
"Sir, I am a carpenter."
"Sir, I am a blacksmith."
"Sir, I am a bamboo craftsman."
"Sir, I am a doctor..."
