Chapter 308: Catching Pigeons
Hearing Yang Youcai's words, Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "You immediately fly the pigeon and ask how to solve this problem, let's go to Baoning Mansion first, so that General Chen can rest assured." ”
A day later, the army had arrived at Boryeong Mansion, and the secret post of Jinyi Wei was released far away, and even a special secret post was installed next to Nanjin Pass to monitor the news of Nanjin Pass.
Yang Youcai glanced at Cheng Xiaolian: "Your Highness, should we wait a few days before attacking the city?" ”
"Why?"
"Our flying pigeon has not come back yet, is it another day? At most, the pigeons will be able to fly back in one day. ”
Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "No, let's attack the city." ”
Soon Yang Youcai understood what Cheng Xiaolian meant, although the army was dispatched, most of them were waving their flags and shouting, and some of the recruits went up to see the formation of the defending side, bows and arrows and trebuchets were quite busy, anyway, the stones were made of local materials, and they were thrown to play.
On this day, Cheng Xiaolian's corporal suffered more than 20 casualties, and nearly 100 casualties were killed in the city, most of them were stoned, and a small number were shot by bows and arrows.
When the sun set, Cheng Xiaolian Mingjin withdrew his troops, and the day was over.
The lieutenant general at the head of the city sneered: "It seems that they are just like this, just to attract attention, let's tell the soldiers at the other two passes, let them close the customs with peace of mind." ”
Chen Junji waved his hand: "Where is it so simple, I always feel that they have some conspiracy, don't pass the carrier pigeon out first, wait until tomorrow to see the situation." ”
That night, Yang Youcai's carrier pigeon also arrived: "Our people have sent the news." ”
Cheng Xiaolian interrupted him: "Why don't you say our carrier pigeons will run to them?" Their pigeons won't come to us? ”
Yang Youcai scratched his head and said: "It's not that the carrier pigeon is great, the trainer will take the carrier pigeon to a place, and then let it fly home, this carrier pigeon is brought out by them, let's put it back, and then they let it go again, and there must be a special person to guard that place, otherwise we can't find our place." I thought there was some special ability, but it turned out to be like this. ”
Cheng Xiaolian sighed: "If this is the case, we will have no way at all, the carrier pigeons all know their homes, and they will never fly to us." ”
Yang Youcai smiled mysteriously: "But that person told a secret." ”
"What's the secret?"
"He said that pigeons only go home when they are hungry, so the pigeons released from the cage are in a hurry to go back to eat, and if we get something to eat, the pigeon may eat it."
Cheng Xiaolian's eyes lit up: "This method is feasible, but we must be fully prepared, once the carrier pigeon runs away from us, it will be difficult to be fooled again." ”
Yang Youcai smiled: "Don't worry, Your Highness, no matter how cunning a person is, he can't escape my palm, let alone a few pigeons." ”
"Also, you have to remember that the pigeon is spiritual, and the people you bring with you can't show murderous aura, otherwise they can feel it."
"Is there such a god?"
"Believe me right, you can bring a few that look harmless to humans and animals, and remember not to show murderous spirit when catching carrier pigeons."
Yang Youcai nodded yes and went to prepare, he specially asked people to prepare a bowl of millet fried with sesame seeds, and then ran out for four or five miles, and began to lay out next to a forest.
Yang Youcai has been very experienced in catching birds since he was a child, so he is determined to win this time. On the other side, Cheng Xiaolian continued to attack Baoning Mansion, but with yesterday's experience, both sides were very smart and began to avoid danger, and after a day, both sides combined did not suffer 50 casualties.
The deputy general guarding the city glanced at Chen Junji: "General, if you don't send a letter again, I'm worried that brothers from other places can't help but come to the rescue." ”
Chen Junji nodded: "Tell them, let them stick to the city and wait for our news." ”
Of course, you can't release carrier pigeons at night, because they also have to rest, and even if you let them out, they will find a branch to rest on, and they won't send messages at all.
So when it was just dawn the next day, five carrier pigeons were released, and not every carrier pigeon could transmit the message, so it was necessary to release a few more each time, and a few of them traveled in a group, so that it would not be easy to get lost, and even if they were attacked, they would not be wiped out.
And Yang Youcai they don't know when the carrier pigeon comes, they have been in the woods for a night, during this period there are many other birds come to eat millet, Yang Youcai in order not to startle the snake, do not dare to shoot these birds at all, otherwise even if the carrier pigeon arrives here, it will definitely not come down to eat, but the surrounding is full of bird droppings.
In the morning, a bowl of millet had bottomed out, fortunately Yang Youcai had already prepared, and hurriedly prepared a bowl of millet to be continued, and the people around smiled: "My lord, according to our continuation method, I'm afraid that the birds around us will have to feed us." ”
Yang Youcai snorted: "Don't worry, in less than two days, there must be carrier pigeons passing here, it is going to fly to Nanjin Pass, this forest must pass through, I don't believe that these pigeons can still become sperm, you watch, I squint for a while, I didn't sleep all night last night, but I was trapped to death." ”
Just when Yang Youcai was half asleep, a person next to him gently pushed him: "It's here." ”
Yang Youcai's eyes immediately widened, it was as if he had never slept at all, he swept his eyes down, and saw a carrier pigeon eating millet somewhere.
The brother next to him asked in a low voice, "Do you want to do it?" ”
Yang Youcai waved his hand: "The carrier pigeon will never be released one by one, there must be other partners watching from other places, and wait." ”
Sure enough, before there was a cup of tea, four pigeons fluttered down from the branches and began to feast with the first pigeon.
Yang Youcai smiled: "Calculating that you are as cunning as a ghost, you also have to drink Lao Tzu's footwashing water and inform the brothers to do it." ”
As soon as the Jinyi guards on both sides exerted their strength, a big net had escaped, and there were many other birds on the ground, all of which were covered in the net for a while, and wanted to run out, many birds broke free together, and they couldn't get out of the net at all, Yang Youcai shouted: "Do it, I'd rather kill by mistake than let go." ”
The surrounding Jinyi guards lit the wet wood that had been prepared long ago, and then a burst of smoke floated out, smoking the birds in the net to a full beard, and many Jinyi guards held crossbow arrows in their hands, so they were worried that the carrier pigeons would fly out of the net.
But their worries are redundant, those smaller birds still have a chance to escape, birds of this size like carrier pigeons can't get out of the net at all, a quarter of an hour later, the net collection action is completed, all five carrier pigeons were Yang Youcai They pinched in their hands, Yang Youcai reached out and pulled out the note tied to the pigeon's leg, which was densely packed with fly-headed small letters, he laughed: "Come on, stuff the note we have prepared." ”
Double monthly pass, comrades, beg for support!
