Chapter 763: The ministers offer advice and seek the moon

For Zhu Youlang, watching the generals argue is also an interesting thing.

This is not because he is interested in watching the fun, but because the arguments of the generals can give him some thoughts.

If you have the truth, you will be dark when you listen in a partial way, and if you listen in both ways, you will be bright when you listen in a balance.

As a king, Zhu Youlang is even more responsible to his ministers and the country.

Every decision he makes cannot be blind, but must be as rational as possible and make the most reasonable decision.

This is the duty of a king, and it can also be said to be a basic requirement.

Zhu Youlang didn't want him to do it too hasty, but instead met his psychological expectations as much as possible.

As an emperor, no one can restrict him.

But Zhu Youlang hopes that he can set a line or hurdle for himself.

In this way, he will not go too far, and he will be able to get back in time even if he goes off.

In general, Zhu Youlang admires Li Laiheng's plan more, and of course Li Dingguo's strategy is not unusable.

As for Zheng Chenggong who has been silent, Zhu Youlang didn't want Zheng Chenggong to be in this state, so he deliberately pointed at him and said, "What do you think about this matter?"

Zheng Chenggong was stunned for a moment, realizing that His Majesty the Emperor was asking for his opinion, he hurriedly replied: "Report to Your Majesty, the plan to see the King of Jin is more reasonable."

Zheng Chenggong said this not because he was really standing by Li Dingguo, but because he felt that the plan to fly hot air balloons was too risky.

As long as there is a little accident, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Even though Li Laiheng said it was a scattered thing, Zheng Chenggong just didn't buy this account.

Zhu Youlang was a little amused and crying now.

He cleared his throat and said, "Look, Xingming still has to show off in front of King Zhong."

Li Laiheng was also a little embarrassed, and he hurriedly continued: "What Your Majesty said is so true. Why not let Xingming perform for King Zhong first, so that King Zhong can understand that the flying hot air balloons are not as risky as they imagined."

Li Laiheng and Zhu Youlang both said this, but Zheng Chenggong didn't want to agree.

“Okay.”

He paused and said, "Today I will open my eyes to see what is magical about the hot air balloon in the mouth of Duke Lin."

After everyone discussed, Li Laiheng went to inform Liu Xingming.

As usual, Liu Tichun opposed it. But his opposition was so powerless in the face of His Majesty the Emperor's will.

Li Laiheng smiled wickedly, and it was really interesting to see Liu Tichun dared not speak out.

Of course, the happiest one is Liu Xingming.

He hasn't had a hot air balloon to carry out a mission for a long time. This opportunity is hard to come by, so he must cherish it well. He must not embarrass his father, nor can he embarrass his Kui Dongjun.

The production of hot air balloons was not difficult. Ming Jun soon prepared the raw materials and then started a simple production according to Liu Xingming's requirements.

It takes about half a day to prepare everything, but two or three hours are enough in a hurry.

Besides, there was the emperor waiting, and everyone tried their best to make a hot air balloon sample.

Liu Xingming took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

Compared to now he is more mature a few years ago, he will never do what he did with a slap in his head now.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, King Jin, Your Highness, Your Highness, King Zhong. I'm going to perform a hot air balloon and take off."

Liu Xingming briefly introduced the principle of hot air balloons, which was actually mainly for Zheng Chenggong to listen to.

Because except for Zheng Chenggong and his troops, basically everyone present knew the principles and sharpness of the hot air balloon.

What Liu Xingming has to do now is to make Zheng Chenggong believe that hot air balloons are useful.

He jumped into the bamboo basket with several soldiers, and then ordered people to cut off the rope tied to the ground without hesitation.

Then the hot air balloon ascended to the sky, gradually turning from a large object into a black dot.

Zheng Chenggong had never seen such a scene before, and he was completely stunned.

"This, this is amazing."

In addition to being surprised, Zheng Chenggong was already incoherent, so he was convinced.

"How is it, Your Highness Zhong, I didn't lie to you, right?"

Li Laiheng was very proud now.

Zheng Chenggong has always been above the top and thinks he knows the most.

But he didn't know that some things were even he didn't understand.

You know what you know. If you don’t know what you don’t know, you must pretend to understand, and you must not let others talk.

"This hot air balloon is indeed magical. But if it flies into Chenyang City, won't the Tartars discover it?"

Seeing that Zheng Chenggong's attitude had softened, Li Laiheng hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "His Highness Zhong Wang doesn't know that hot air balloons usually fly to a very high place before they start to fall. We can choose a cloudy day, or simply at night. If you don't look carefully, the Tartars will not be able to find the hot air balloon at all."

Li Laiheng swallowed and told Zheng Chenggong about his successful experience.

Zheng Chenggong was fascinated by the sound of his feelings and sighed: "I didn't expect Major General Liu Xingming to be so brave and resourceful. This is really a blessing for the Ming Dynasty."

Liu Xingming was blushed by Zheng Chenggong's praise, and scratched his head and said, "Your Highness Zhong is a mistake. This is because His Majesty has good leadership. The last general is just following the flow and doing his own thing."

"You are promising when you are young, and you are promising when you are young. If the dog has three points, I will be content."

Seeing that everyone had basically reached an agreement, Zhu Youlang came out to summarize: "It seems that the flying hot air balloon and the shooting surrender letter can be carried out at the same time. We must divide the prison court and not let them be united. In this way, our losses can be minimized."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

The generals bowed.

"Don't flatter me, go and arrange it quickly."

Zhu Youlang said in harmony.

...

...

The atmosphere in Chenyang City became increasingly tense.

Although Xiaozhuang was ready to fight to the death, when the Ming army really appeared outside Shenyang City, the feeling of oppression still made people feel a little breathless.

Hundreds of thousands of troops siege the city of Chenyang, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as black clouds that are about to destroy the city.

Xiaozhuang felt uneasy, so he called Sony to discuss countermeasures.

Sony comforted her and said, "The Empress Dowager, I have arranged all the locations in the city. No matter which direction the Ming thief attacks the city, our army can deal with it in time."

When it comes to leading troops to fight, Sony may not be the opponent of Suksaha, Obai and Ebilon, but when it comes to defending the city, the three people may not be as good as Sony together.

This is because Sony is meticulous and will never take the initiative to fight.

In terms of seeking stability, the Qing Dynasty cannot find anyone better than Sony.

"But why the Ai family's eyelids keep twitching? Nothing is ominous."

Xiaozhuang may be really old and her energy is much worse than before. If she had to go to the city wall in person, she would have to inspect it herself, but now she can only use the hands of others.

"Don't worry, the Empress Dowager, I can guarantee that everything will be safe."
