1825 My New Daming

Chapter 78 King Pingxi, jump down! (Seek collection, seek reading and seek monthly pass)
A large pasture outside Xianmen Pass has been fenced off with wooden fences, and there are heavily armed Eight Banners soldiers patrolling back and forth. The surrounding large area has become a military restricted area.

And in the center of this restricted area, on a large open lawn, eight extremely huge oval-shaped Flying Dragon III airships were placed side by side, one after the other.

Beside the eight Flying Dragon III airships, hundreds of Hu craftsmen are busy building barracks, warehouses, and ammunition with wood from nearby mountains under the command of a few mixed-race bannermen wearing Taoist clothes and waving whisks. library, watchtower.

They have been busy for some days, and now they have repaired a dozen wooden houses that look a bit sparse, and more wooden houses are being built.

Hundreds of people in yellow jackets formed a small square formation in an open space next to the eight airships. Everyone looked up at the sky—of course they were not watching the sky, but looking at the sky hundreds of kilometers above the sky. A floating Dragon III airship.

While watching, they also made comments.

"I really didn't expect that our big gold navy can still go to the sky!"

"That's right. There are also navy in the sky. Of course, the navy can manage the affairs of the sky."

"Are there sailors in the sky? Where are they!"

"It says in the book that there are [-] sailors in the Tianhe River, and there is an admiral of the navy named Marshal Tianpeng!"

"Ah, Zhu Bajie in "Journey to the West"! Co-authoring our King Pingxi is doing Zhu Bajie's errand!"

"Not bad, Zhu Bajie is a fairy, he can fly!"

"Isn't our King Pingxi flying into the sky? I don't know if it feels good to fly? The sky is so high and so high, it's about to fall down"

"Don't talk nonsense, you are the curse prince!"

It turned out that Dajin Pingxi King Wu Faxing was in the cabin of the airship floating in the mid-air at this moment, staring at a pair of copper bell-like eyeballs, looking in horror at the sitting opposite him, holding a stopper in his hand. Zhuge Weidao of Bilong Dao opened his mouth wide, and it took him a long time to say a few words: "Consultant Zhuge, do you want me to jump off such a high airship? I will fall to my death. Consultant, I Wu Chuanfa and You have no grudges or enmities, you can't hurt me like this!"

Zhuge Weidao smiled and waved his hands, "Wu Shangshu, don't be afraid, you are Ba Tulu, you are also the Minister of the Navy Department, and you have won the trust of the Emperor Dajin. This is the opportunity to repay your kindness and serve your country, so you have to be brave!"

"What kind of opportunity is this?" Wu Chuanzhen shook his head like a rattle, "I jumped to such a high level, and I fell to my death to serve the country like this?"

"If you can't fall to your death, how can you fall to your death?" Zhuge Weidao pointed to a "big burden" placed on a small table between the two of them, and said with a smile, "This is a folded parachute. Jumping with a parachute, as long as the rope is pulled, the parachute will open, and then the resistance of the air will support the parachute, and also support you hanging on the parachute. In this way, your falling speed will be lower. Slow down, if you fall slowly, you won’t die.”

After he finished speaking, he looked at Ling Zongjun and Wang Wen who were standing beside him, and asked with a smile, "Zongjun, Jinxue, who of you will perform a parachute jump for King Pingxi?"

Ling Zongjun is now the captain of the airship team and also the captain of the airship.

And Wang Wen is the communications officer of this airship——the airships of the Ming Dynasty Navy are all "monitoring and attacking integrated manned ships", all of which are equipped with black-tech radio stations, which can send the enemy's situation discovered by the telescope to the rear by wireless telegram headquarters.

Both of them had pretty rough parachute training (parachutes were as rough as skydiving in this day and age) and of course knew how crazy it was to jump off a good airship!

But their immediate boss, Zhuge Weidao, didn't care at all that in order to execute a key sneak attack, killing a few or even dozens of Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers must be valuable. At least it can help Zhuge Weidao improve the design of the parachute.

And Wu Sangui's precious descendant, Wu Chuanfa, was chosen by Daoguang to carry out a crucial raid mission that fell from the sky.

Of course, Daoguang would not choose the wrong person. This guy is indeed very fierce. Although he is a prince, he has no interest in studying or cultivating immortals. He dropped out of school and joined the army when he was 13 years old, and joined the army of Emperor Dajin.This Dajin Kingdom is not as comfortable as the Daqing Kingdom, and nowhere is safe outside of the Immortal Gate, so the emperor's guards are also responsible for the quick response force, and they are often the first to go up wherever there is trouble to be shoveled.

And this Wu Chuan has been in the army for more than 20 years, has experienced hundreds of battles, and often takes the lead, made a lot of military exploits, and earned himself the title of Batulu.Therefore, the good job of "Heavenly Man" is none other than him.

But no matter how brave he is, it is normal for him to be afraid of skydiving, and someone must jump once to show him.

"Let me come!" Wang Wen opened his mouth and accepted the task that Zhuge Weidao set out——Ling Zongjun is his superior, how can he let his superior take risks?
Zhuge Weidao smiled and nodded: "Okay, after the dance is over, I will give you a credit!"

Only meritorious service can be promoted!
During training, skydiving can’t be credited, but now it’s performing skydiving in front of the Minister of the Navy Department of the Dajin Kingdom, and of course it will be rewarded.

Then Zhuge Weidao asked Ling Zongjun to put the umbrella bag on Wang Wen, and then directly buckle a pull ring on the umbrella bag to a pull rod in the cabin of the boat.

The airship's propeller didn't rotate, it just hovered a few hundred meters in the air, fluttering with the wind.Zhuge Weidao and Wu Chuanchuan stood at the window on the side of the airship cabin, waiting to watch the skydive.

At this time, Ling Zongjun had already opened the cabin door, and the cool wind from the high altitude rushed in, making a sound of "boom, boom, boom", and Ling Zongjun shouted loudly: "Wang Jinxue, you can jump now!"

"Okay!" Wang Wen shouted, gritted his teeth and stomped out of the airship hatch.The buckle of his parachute bag had already been hung on a pull rod in the cabin, so as soon as he jumped out, the parachute came out of the bag, and in the blink of an eye, a white flower blossomed in the air. umbrella flowers.

Seeing the umbrella flowers, Zhuge Weidao heaved a sigh of relief, and then said to Wu Chuan: "King Pingxi, do you see that this umbrella descends very slowly, and the people hanging on it are very safe, just be careful when landing?" , don't sprain your ankle. You shouldn't be afraid now, right?"

Wu Chuanfa stared at the umbrella flower until it slowly landed, and Wang Wen who was hanging below was not only fine, but also packed up the parachute in a hurry, then he laughed: "This is amazing. A squeeze of an airship can at least 20 people, ten airships are 200 people, although not many, but Afghanistan and northwest India are mountainous. Hahaha!" King Pingxi suddenly laughed, and then turned to Zhuge Weidao and said: "Advisor Zhuge, can you She really deserves to be the queen of Zhuge Wuzhong, and Wu admires her!"

Zhuge Weidao smiled: "It's just a parachute drop, my lord. Since you know how to use this parachute drop, you don't need to parachute today. Go back and practice before jumping!"

Calcutta, East India Company Governor's Palace.

Baron Amherst was sitting excitedly in a small conference room, holding a few copies of the telegrams he had just received, looking at a few people in thin clothes sitting beside a long table. The generals in navy or army uniforms laughed loudly and said: "Everyone, good news, the good news just received, our neighbor in the northwest, Emperor Daoguang, has indeed sent troops. According to our reports in Bukhara, Samarkand, Khwa According to reliable information provided by friends in Zimo and other places, Emperor Dajin has sent envoys to Bukhara, Samarkand, Khwarazmo and other places to gather troops and food, and go to the camp on the north bank of the Amu Darya River. The emperor has mobilized a huge amount of troops and food, and it looks like he is ready to fight a big battle!"

"Baron," said the one-armed Earl Nelson, frowning, "you call this good news?"

"This is just part of the good news!" Baron Amishd laughed. "Our representative in Peshawar also received a secret letter from Dost Mohammad Khan in Afghanistan, who wants to betray Daoguang!"
