The structure of the Kong Ming lantern is divided into two parts: the main body is mostly made of bamboo grate, the second is made of cotton paper or paper paste into the lampshade, and the bottom bracket is composed of a grate cut from bamboo.

In order to achieve the deflagration effect and the lift-off effect, Qin Feng gave up the main body of the bamboo grate and used paper paste instead. Fortunately, the Great Qin country is strong, and the Yedu paper is not expensive, and the army also carries it.

Kong Ming lanterns are generally cylindrical or rectangular, still for the effect of lift-off, and Qin Feng is unified cylindrical.

Outside the imperial tent, surrounded by ingenious soldiers, they were full of awe, surrounded Emperor Hongwu, carefully remembering the process of making zuò.

Qin Feng was actually not skilled, and then it was popular to release Kong Ming lanterns in later generations, and he still remembered the way to make zuò. After coming and going, I figured it out.

"Do you see it, the opening is facing down, and a bracket is braided at the bottom. Fold a concave shape with a thin scale armor, and use cotton cloth when making the wick, which should be thick enough to resist wind ....... ”

Qin Feng's plan was: tens of thousands of Kong Ming lanterns suddenly fell from the sky, and the fire oil would inevitably be sprinkled everywhere, and a little bit of the thick wick that continued to burn should ignite a big fire. The main thing is to be surprised, whether it is successful or not, he is going to try it.

Jia Xu and Pang Tong pondered on the side, "Can this sky lantern really fly?" ”

Ancient science and technology were weak, and even great talents like Jia Xu and Pang Tong did not understand the principle of Kong Ming's lantern ascension.

In fact, it is the principle of hot air balloons, fuel combustion, the temperature of the air in the lamp increases, the density of the gas decreases, and the buoyancy of the lantern increases. When the buoyancy force is greater than the gravitational force, the Kong Ming lantern rises. It doesn't make sense to explain it to the ancients, and Qin Feng doesn't bother to explain. At the same time, maintaining a certain sense of mystery is also good for a king.

After a while. Qin Feng finally made a decent Kong Ming lantern.

As he stood up with the lamp, the soldiers around him bowed and retreated.

Qin Feng beckoned. said: "Wenhe, you can help me with it." ”

Jia Xu walked over cautiously and took a fire twist. Qin Feng held both sides of the bottom of the lamp, and after Jia Xu carefully lit the wick at the bottom, he stepped aside.

Everyone stared intently, staring at Kong Ming's lantern. In their minds, they couldn't believe that lanterns could fly. Yes, in their opinion, this Kong Ming lantern. In fact, it is a lantern. Everyone has seen lanterns, but they have never seen one fly.

However, as the inside of the Kong Ming lantern was heated and expanded, everyone's eyes bulged out.

At this time, Qin Feng felt that Kong Ming Lantern was rising, so he slowly let go of his hands, and sure enough, in his expectation, Kong Ming Lantern trembled and hung in the air for a moment, and then slowly flew up.

Everyone was blown away. People stupidly looked at the Kong Ming lantern that rose into the sky, forgetting about the other qiē.

Until Jia Xu worshiped in ecstasy: "The emperor is sage, make zuò out of the flying magic lamp, long live my emperor!" ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live......." And they all prayed together.

And more and more soldiers saw the magic lantern flying in the sky. They were full of awe of Emperor Hongwu, and they fell to the ground one after another, looking up at the magic lamp full of fanaticism.

Qin Feng was also overjoyed. However, he hurriedly shouted: "Don't let the enemy find out, shoot down quickly!" ”

Dian Wei on the side also bent his bow and arrows. With a bang, a hole shot out of the lamppaper. Naturally, it fell to the ground. But the matter is not over, after falling to the ground, the lamp oil is scattered, the special wind-resistant wick is still burning, and after a bang, the whole papier-mâché lamp burst into flames.

Jia Xu and Pang Tong glanced at each other, couldn't hide the ecstasy in their hearts, and bowed again: "The magic lamp, it's really a magic lamp, with this magic lamp, why worry about the enemy not breaking!" ”

Pang Tong said excitedly: "Your Majesty, can this magic lamp have a name?" ”

Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, and pondered for a while, this Kong Ming lantern was invented by Zhuge Liang when he was old, and it has never appeared now. So, Qin Feng also pirated it, and said with a smile: "This is just a casual thought of me, and I haven't named it yet." ”

The soldiers sighed when they heard this, and said in their hearts that our emperor is really an immortal saint emperor, and if you think about it, you can come up with a flying lantern.

Jia Xu hurriedly bowed: "This thing was created by the emperor, and it should be called Hongwu Divine Lamp!" ”

Pang Tong secretly scolded and was robbed of the dragon fart by the old fox, and hurriedly said: "That's it, Hongwu Divine Lamp!" ”

As a result, the Hongwu Divine Lantern was then passed down to the soldiers at that time, thus replacing the Kong Ming Lantern and passing on to eternity. Later generations could not help but admire the wisdom and talent of Emperor Hongwu, who was really the first person at that time.

Although Qin Feng pirated Zhuge Liang's Kong Ming lantern, now Zhuge Liang has been sold to Rome with the three Taoyuan brothers. Zhuge Liang obviously didn't have a chance to invent the Kong Ming lantern, if Qin Feng didn't do all the tricks, maybe this Kong Ming lantern wouldn't have been able to be made in ancient times. From this point of view, Emperor Hongwu still protected the valuable ancient cultural heritage. Whether it came first with the chicken or the egg came first, it's really impossible to say. However, for later generations, there was Emperor Hongwu first and then there was the prosperity of China, so there is really no need to doubt it.

So, in the next two days, the Qin army worked together and began to make the Hongwu God Lamp. It only took two days to make tens of thousands of Hongwu magic lamps.

It was a beautiful day, with only a slight breeze blowing in the direction of the enemy camp. Emperor Qin Feng of Hongwu decided that if there was no major change, he would take a suitable time period at night to release the Hongwu Divine Lamp and burn the enemy's grain and grass village. After the soldiers got the news, they all geared up, and carefully took care of the magic lamp, and waited for the night to go out and release it.

"Your Majesty, what do you think?" Xin Xianying was in the inner tent, a pair of jade hands were dragging the lit Hongwu Divine Lamp, as long as she let go, it would fly, and she hurriedly dragged it back. She is very curious about this Hongwu magic lamp, which not only has a military role, but also has a very interesting role.

"There are some principles involved in this, and I can't pass them on, but ......." Emperor Hongwu was in a better mood and couldn't help laughing.

Xin Xianying naturally knew the meaning inside, and pouted in a blushing face: "Then don't know!" ”

Gradually late at night, Qin Feng went back and forth to check, and it was not until the third watch that there was a suitable wind speed and direction in the mountain.

So, with an order, the entire Qin army camp was silent. The soldiers all went into action. The three people who have a task are in charge of a lamp, and those who don't have a task also come out to see the rarity.

On the three peaks of Penglai. The whole army was gathered, and 30,000 of them were ready. More than 10,000 people watched from the periphery. Even Xin Xianying, who had a small tail, couldn't help but put on a veil and followed Emperor Hongwu to watch the excitement.

The young Pang Tong was excited, and when he was ready, he immediately played: "Your Majesty, can we start?" ”

Qin Feng sat on the dragon chair, and Xianying stood behind him, and he waved his big hand and said, "Let's start, be careful." ”

"Okay!" Pang Tong turned around and came to the front. The flag waved.

30,000 soldiers, of which 10,000 were holding Hongwu Divine Lamps, another 10,000 were holding fire twists, and the last 10,000 were ready with bows and arrows. The officers and soldiers of the three armies all showed impatience.

With another move, 10,000 fire twists flickered, lighting 10,000 Hongwu Divine Lamps.

Qin Feng secretly thought, this lamp is nothing, but the scale of 10,000 lamps is huge. Together, the gods are difficult to save. He couldn't help but get up and come to the front, "Put on the lights!" ”

10,000 soldiers let go of their hands, and 10,000 Hongwu Divine Lamps flew into the sky. With the breeze, while rising, it was also flying towards the Jade Void Peak where the enemy's grain and grass were located on the opposite side. The soldiers looked at the Hongwu Divine Lantern in the distance like their relatives. Looking forward to falling like rain, when the fire that reflects the sky ignites. It is the best reward for yourself.

"It will work!" Xin Xianying looked at the magnificent scene of ten thousand bright lights, and couldn't help but lean close to Qin Feng's side.

Qin Feng also grabbed her shoulders. Sure enough, the mountain peaks are like jade, the lights are ten thousand, and the "wolf" is a talented woman ....... But soon, the woman found out that this man was another wolf, and hurriedly slipped away.

Emperor Hongwu was very embarrassed, and he couldn't help but attract the attention of others, and he didn't retract his hollow arm for a long time. Looking left and right, when he found that everyone was attracted by the ten thousand bright lights floating in the night sky, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly withdrew his arms.

The 10,000 bright lights that lit up the night sky were indeed shocking, and everyone watched.

Lao Jia Xu was also blessed, and sighed: "To be able to follow the emperor is really difficult to make the most correct choice in this life......." ”

Pang Tong hurriedly looked over, and the two couldn't help but feel sorry for each other. Soon, however, "Little one, what do you see?" ”

"Old thing......!"

The two "viciously" looked at each other, ran their own ways, and shouted: "Prepare to release arrows, release arrows!" ”

On the other hand, opposite Yuxu Mountain.

"Wow!" One of the patrolmen jumped as if he had seen a ghost.

The captain went up and kicked him and shouted, "What are you shouting, dead man?" ”

"There's a ghost, a ghost fire!" The soldier screamed, pointing to the sky.

When a group of people looked over, "Wow, ahhh "The ghosts screamed incessantly.

At first, the grain and grass village only thought it was an enemy attack, and after rushing out, they found that there was no one. As he looked at the sky, the Eastern Wu soldiers had never seen the strange scene of fire floating in the air, and they were stupid for a while. And the scene was spectacular and lit up the night sky, and it was shocked.

"Ghost Fire!" Some trembled and fell to their knees, "Don't eat me, don't take me away...... ”

"No, it's the stars in the sky that have come down!" Someone else shouted.

When the Hongwu lantern flew closer, people found out that it was a sky lantern. "How is this possible, how can a lantern fly into the sky?"

The general in charge of this place felt that the matter was serious, and immediately sent someone to report to Lu Xun.

At this time, the soldiers on Yujing Mountain, where Lu Xun was located, also discovered the little fire in the sky, and because of the huge momentum, they had already reported it to Lu Xun.

When Lu Xun put on his armor and walked out of the big tent, the three veterans of Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang had also arrived.

They didn't know what was going on at first, and they thought it was a ghost fire or something.

Huang Gai said in horror: "It's not good, it must be Qin Zijin who used the demon method." Hurry up and sacrifice to the sky, so as not to be hit! ”

Lu Xun was taken aback and asked rhetorically, "How to sacrifice to the sky?" ”

"It's ......." There was nothing to be done for a while.

At this moment, the heralds of Yuxu Mountain came, and they knew that it was not a demon law, not a ghost fire, but a flying magic lamp.

Cheng Pu looked at the large-scale ghost fire hanging in the distance, and snorted coldly: "It should be some kind of ritual to worship heaven and earth, I think Qin Zijin can't break through our defense line, so it's ...... pretending to be a ghost." ”

Lu Xun agreed: "Yes, Qin Zijin can use these ghost tricks." It's not strange, it's ...... self-defeating. He shouted to the frightened soldiers around him: "It's just some lights, and if there is anything beautiful about a broken lamp, go and be on guard." ”

Huang Gai couldn't help smacking his tongue, shook his head and sighed: "Old man, I have lived for fifty-three, and it is the first time I have seen a lamp in the sky. ”

Lu Xun thinks that it is not strange, and it is self-defeating, and the three old generals also think that this is the truth. So he ordered the whole army not to mess with itself, this move is a means for the enemy to confuse us, and it cannot be tricked.

Just when the soldiers and horses of Eastern Wu were surprised, suddenly there was a large number of sounds of breaking the sky.

Lu Xun saw that a large number of lights hanging in the air fell down suddenly. When his heart was still shocked, there was already a fire on the Yuxu Mountain on the side. It was where he stored his food. Lu Xun was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, jumped up as soon as he aimed at it, and suddenly realized, pointing to the sky lantern and shouting: "It's not good, this is Qin Zijin's trick!" ”

Yuxu Mountain, scene. The Eastern Wu soldiers looked at the sky stupidly, and they were unprepared for it when the lanterns fell on a large scale. One or two lamps are easy to say, and one hundred and eighty lamps don't matter, but thousands can't withstand it.

In just a few breaths, thousands of Hongwu Divine Lamps fell straight into the grain and grass camp, causing hundreds of ignition points. Due to the carrier of fire oil, hundreds of ignition points work together. The grain and grass burned, and soon it was out of control, and spread throughout the grain and grass camp.

Lu Xun was terrified, and he could hardly believe that the raging fire on the opposite side was real.

The Eastern Wu soldiers in the grain and grass camp screamed to put out the fire, but there were too many fire points and the spread was too fast, and it was so useless.

And on the opposite side of Penglai Sanfeng, there was the cheers of the Qin army, "Long live the emperor, Hongwu Divine Lamp!" ”

"Long live the emperor, Hongwu Divine Lamp!"

Qin Feng took a deep breath, and said in his heart that it was fortunate that it was not a sky lantern, if not, others would still think that I had been lit a sky lantern. (To be continued......)
