"Let's go, let's go up!"

Xu Changqing personally opened the bottom hatch for Zhang Baozhu.

Zhang Baozhu couldn't stop trembling all over her body, she had been in a hot air balloon in Haicheng once, but her frightened soul was about to fall, and she didn't dare to sit in the future.

At this time, the cabin of this airship is actually fully enclosed, which seems to be better than a hot air balloon......

In the chaos, Zhang Baozhu didn't have time to think about it, gritted his silver teeth, and walked forward almost with his eyes closed.

At this time, suddenly a familiar big hand held her steadily, and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid, everything has me!" ”

"......"

Zhang Baozhu was stunned for a moment, and the tension dissipated a lot at once, glanced at Xu Changqing, and hurriedly accelerated his speed into the airship.

Later, although Park Eun-hee was also afraid, he was better than Zhang Baozhu, and he hurriedly followed him and also entered the airship.

The space inside the airship is not small, it must be more than ten square meters, rectangular in shape, and there are glass windows on both sides.

There is a main driver in front, two deputies on both sides, and an auxiliary staff in the back, a total of four staff members, except for the main driver, the remaining three are relatively strong, which can be described as big shoulders and round waists.

Seeing Xu Changqing and the three of them coming up, the four of them hurriedly saluted.

Xu Changqing asked Zhang Baozhu and Park Eun-hee to sit firmly on the small sofa next to them and grab the armrests, looked at the familiar driver with a smile and said, "Harvest, how is it?" Is there confidence? ”

This pilot is none other than the 'Flying Maniac' Li Fengshou!

Li Fengshou smiled: "Dashuai, if it was just now, I wouldn't be too sure about the lowly position, but at this moment, the wind has become a lot lighter, and everything can be wrapped up in the lowly position!" ”

Xu Changqing smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Then let's start!" ”

"Yes!"

Li Fengshou straightened up, took a deep breath, and directly began to adjust the equipment, and the other three staff members also quickly got busy.

Don't look at Li Fengshou's relaxed performance at this time, in fact, he is more nervous than anyone else!

Xu Changqing's life was handed over to him, almost equivalent to the millions of ordinary people in Haicheng, the core pillar of the model army, and the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty in his hands, how could he not be nervous?

But Li Fengshou also has one of the biggest advantages, he was born with a big heart!

Once in flying condition, he doesn't think about anything anymore.

When Li Fengshou and the others started to work, Xu Changqing also came to the small sofa in the middle, shook Zhang Baozhu's hand on the left, and then shook Park Eun-hee's hand on the right, using body language to make them feel safe and relaxed.

But Xu Changqing himself also closed his eyes.

This state is Xu Changqing, how can it be possible to say that he is not nervous?

Who can not be in awe of what is beyond their control?

In fact, Haicheng began to develop airships as early as a few years ago, after the hot air balloon was formed.

It's just that this work is quite difficult, and it is not particularly smooth.

The biggest difference between an airship and a hot air balloon is that it has a device for propulsion and control of the flight state.

In this regard, even with Xu Changqing's continuous mention, the craftsmen of the ordnance workshop are constantly racking their brains, and they still take many detours, and they have only recently taken shape.

Xu Changqing is not an expert in this area, and he only knows a little bit about it......

Of course, the formation of the Model Army was not the same as that of the Qing Army, and the Model Army had already undergone hundreds of tests on airships at this time.

At this time, Xu Changqing really understood the principles of airships.

To put it bluntly, it's very similar to a submarine or a fish.

The airship is equipped with a valve inside the airship, which uses hydrogen to lift into the air, and when it reaches a predetermined altitude, it releases a part of the hydrogen to keep it safe

At the same time, the valve can also control the stability of the airship.

As for the propulsion device, it is, naturally, a propeller, but it is a hand-cranked ......

The three strong men with big shoulders and round waists other than Li Fengshou came to do this work, and the three of them took turns to change shifts.

At this time, this airship does not have many combat attributes, and the main core reason is that the propulsion performance is not strong enough, but it is much better than a hot air balloon for reconnaissance, especially for reconnaissance at night.

But if you really want to fight, it is not impossible, especially the hot air balloons used to deal with the Qing army.

The altitude of the airship is what the Qing army's hot air balloon longs for and cannot reach, and there are openings in the bilge floor, so it is only necessary to arrange accurate shooters to snipe on it to hit high and low, and the Qing army's hot air balloon is not returned.

"Prepare for liftoff, let go of the cable."

After a while, Li Fengshou was heard communicating loudly with the sons and daughters outside, and he was ready.

Soon, the cable was released, and the airship slowly began to take off.

Although Zhang Baozhu and Park Eun-hee have been holding the handrails obediently, they are still led forward and backward by inertia, and exclaimed.

Xu Changqing didn't make a sound, but the whole person was nervous, and he grabbed the handrail steadily.

As the airship continued to rise into the air, it was blown and swayed, which made people really frightened, but Li Fengshou and his staff did not panic, as if they were used to this rhythm.

Xu Changqing also relaxed a little.

Soon, the airship rose to an altitude of about 350 meters, and the valve began to deflate, and there was another thrill.

After the deflation, several macho men began to crank the propeller by hand, and the stability gradually improved a lot.

Xu Changqing was finally able to adjust his mind.

A few minutes later, Zhang Baozhu and Park Eun-hee were still closing their eyes, not knowing what they were praying for, Xu Changqing had already adjusted, greeted Li Fengshou and a few others, and lay on the floor.

Immediately, he wrapped his seat belt and carefully opened a piece of iron plate in the bilge.

Under this iron plate, there is a rectangular glass of one square meter.

However, the glass was a little dirty, and it was stained with a lot of snow foam, Xu Changqing greeted, and a fierce man hurriedly handed Xu Changqing a deerskin rag soaked in hot wine.

"Ready, I'm going to wipe the glass!"

Xu Changqing yelled at Li Fengshou.

Li Fengshou immediately shouted: "Understood! ”

Xu Changqing immediately opened a small circular iron plate next to the glass.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, the fierce wind came in directly, Rao is Xu Changqing was very well prepared, but he was almost turned on his head, and the entire airship shook violently.

Fortunately, Xu Changqing quickly adjusted, gritted his teeth, endured this terrifying shaking sensation and biting cold wind, and directly stretched out his hand with force, quickly cleaned out a small piece of glass space, and then quickly covered the lid.

That is, Xu Changqing's strength is amazing, if it were someone else, I am afraid it would be impossible for him to complete such an action alone.

With the lid plugged, the airship regained its balance.

Through this area of glass that was no longer foggy, Xu Changqing also quickly saw the firelight arrangement of the Qing army from God's perspective!

As he expected, the Qing army was almost a long dragon at this time, but they were still quite vigilant, and small fires could be seen everywhere around the long dragon, which should be their reconnaissance base.

After lying on the ground and watching for a while, Xu Changqing came to the windows on both sides to watch, and his heart became more and more scoreful, and then he directly greeted Li Fengshou and said: "Harvest, it's done, get ready to return!" ”

"Forehead ......"

Li Fengshou was speechless, this ......

But Xu Changqing had already given the order, and he could only do it, and he was busy greeting the three of them

The companion began to rebel.

However, the distance they really flew in the sky at this time was probably not a few hundred meters......

Zhang Baozhu and Park Eun-hee were still very nervous, but looking at Xu Changqing's appearance at this time, the two women looked at each other and couldn't help but want to laugh.

It turned out that this man also had something to fear......

……

After a while, the airship landed smoothly, and the wind was much lighter at this time.

Xu Changqing returned to the big tent, the generals had been waiting for a long time, and Xu Changqing began to give orders directly according to the sand table!

Soon, the order was quickly transmitted to the front line by various means.

Several hot air balloon camps in the distance, with more than 300 or nearly 400 hot air balloons, quickly began to take off in sequence.

The first to take off is a hot air balloon painted in black.

But even with the all-black livery, you can still see the fire in the hot air balloon.

This is also one of the biggest differences between hot air balloons and airships, airships do not have this kind of firelight, which is more conducive to concealment.

There are nearly 200 black hot air balloons, at this point in time, most of the Qing army has rested, even if they have not rested, they have a little more alcohol, these black hot air balloons are around the two wings towards the rear of the Qing army's battle formation, for a few minutes, they are not aware of it!

"Hey, what's that? How can there be fire in the sky? ”

Finally, the organic spirits in the Qing army found out that something was wrong and exclaimed.

But at this time, the colorful hot air balloon on the front of the Model Army also sorted, which quickly attracted their attention!

There was a chaotic sound in the camp of the Qing army: "It's not good, it's the hot air balloon of the model army, and these dogs of the model army are going to attack at night!" ”

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack—"

The quiet night was directly torn apart, and a terrifying frenzy was quickly triggered.

Many of the real Manchurians who had just taken off their armor and slept hurriedly got up, beckoning the minions to put on their armor, and hurriedly came out to check the situation.

Duoduo, Luo Luohong, and Ao Bai all woke up soon and hurriedly came out to check.

As soon as he saw that the dense hot air balloons in front of him were already like a large colorful cloud, Ao Bai's lungs were about to be blown up, and he scolded: "The dog offal of the model army is so insidious, is today's battle all bait?!" ”

Luo Luohong's soul was about to be frightened away, and he hurriedly greeted Duoduo and said: "Prince Yu, the situation is not good, look at the scale of this hot air balloon, eighty percent, it is Xu Changqing who is here!" We, we've all been tricked by him! ”

"I ......"

Duoduo almost wanted to crack at this time, but he didn't have time to vent at all, and hurriedly beckoned: "Disperse, disperse, scatter all parts to break through!" ”

"Boom!"

"Boom Rumble......

Before his words fell, the hot air balloons of the Model Army, who had already been holding back their strength, had already rushed to the front and frantically threw the next fierce incendiary bombs.

The terrifying wave of air then spread out, and the Qing army's battle array was already a lot of fire at this time, and at this moment, it was directly like 'unlucky mother opened the door to unlucky and unlucky arrived home.' The family came to life directly. ’

The fire quickly erupted.

The Qing armies of all departments did not dare to fight at all, and many real Manchurians did not even have time to put on armor, so they hurriedly called on their respective minions to break through as soon as possible.

But the hot air balloons of the Model Army did not give them a chance to break through at all, and threw incendiary bombs at their periphery, and the fire quickly ignited the wall of fire, and even in the snow, many pine and cypress seeds began to show signs of ignition.

And Duoduo and the others were just about to break through to the rear, but the scene that broke their hearts suddenly came!

In the explosion of "Boom", their back road was actually cut off, and their appearance was even more fierce than the frontal battlefield.
