Chapter two hundred and seventeen the talk of carrier pigeons

"What happened?" Yun Ting noticed Lu Bu's departure, and knew that something must have happened. And he left with the cavalry, which further confirmed Yun Ting's guess. So he came to Zhang Liao and asked.

"Nothing is wrong." Zhang Liao replied, swallowing the dry food he was swallowing, taking a sip of water, moistening his throat, and then continued: "Even if there is anything, it is still a trivial matter, so don't care."

Without further ado, Yun Ting would not ask more. He knew that in the land of Bingzhou, and even on the Xianbei grassland, Lu Bu had indeed become a trivial matter. Even if someone really had his ideas on Lu Bu, he would have been a tiger's tooth extraction in the end and would have learned an extremely painful lesson.

"Huh?" Yun Ting suddenly asked a question and looked up. What caught his eye was a flying carrier pigeon.

Could it be that something happened? Otherwise, at this time, no one would have sent a letter to him. His heart was full of doubts. Yun Ting stretched out his hand, and the carrier pigeon hovered and finally landed on the back of his hand. The carrier pigeon's claws were grabbed onto the skin, causing a little pain, but it could not attract Yun Ting's attention too much.

"Oh? Pigeon?"

Seeing this scene, Zhang Liao's eyes lit up and then dimmed again. However, the speed of eating dry food slowed down and his eyes were staring at the carrier pigeon.

This method of transmission is very envious of the people in their army. To this day, they still use people to convey information and information. The grasslands are different. Some have learned to use the Eagle to detect the enemy's movements. This method is something that the Bingzhou Army has always wanted to obtain. However, the Eagle to be few, and all they can have is only a few tribes on the grasslands. The difficulty of domestication and capture is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words. So after a long period of exploration and testing, the Bingzhou Army has given up this attempt.

Zhang Liao knew that this was a carrier pigeon, a unique domesticated animal by players. He didn't know how these players got it, but after seeing the carrier pigeon, any general would keenly discover its role in war! Yes! The speed of the beacon is relatively fast, but it can only be used for alarm messages. The speed of the messenger is too slow. Generally speaking, if the urgent message or the 800-mile rush is urgent, you have to change a horse on the way, otherwise no matter how good the war horse is, you will be exhausted to death.

Zhang Liao looked at the pigeons in Yun Ting's hand and thought deeply. In fact, they did acquire a few from the players in Zhoucheng, but later they died for some reason. This way, Zhang Liao's thoughts were cut off, but at this time he suddenly thought about it. What if it was domestication? Even if he could not domesticate now, as long as someone continued, one day, there would always be pigeons that could successfully domesticate and use as military use appeared. By that time, the cavalry would be able to truly come and go like the wind, obtain information in time, and no longer lose synchronization with friendly forces.

Zhang Liao had a bright eyes and thought of a very distant place. If the Flying General Li Guang had a pigeon in contact with his friendly troops during the Battle of Han and the Hungarians and the Western Expedition to the Nanmo River, he would not have lost his way, missed the military situation, and even died of depression in the end. If, but unfortunately, there was no if... Zhang Liao sighed, he did not believe that if, there were only two most direct results: whether it was good or not.

"What are Wen Yuan thinking?" Yun Ting got the pigeon, but did not immediately untie the small signal tube tied on his feet, but turned his eyes to Zhang Liao. He looked at Zhang Liao's face from sunny to y, and then slightly depressed, turning into a hint of melancholy. It is hard to imagine that Zhang Liao and Zhang Wen Yuan would have so many rich expressions in a moment, so Yun Ting's thoughts of reading the truth faded a lot.

When his eyes fell, Yun Ting saw Zhang Liao staring at the pigeon parked on the back of his hand, he knew what he was thinking. In fact, soon after, the convenience services belonging to the players would be cancelled, such as the pigeon and the station. By that time, the transmission of information between the players would be slower and become like the indigenous people.

It was not until a long time later, when the time period of the heroes really entered, the pigeons might appear. At that time, the war was probably an information war. Whoever could get intelligence would be able to seize the initiative and gain the initiative.

Zhang Liao smiled awkwardly, pointed at the pigeon in Yun Ting's hand without hesitation, and said, "I'm thinking that this pigeon can be used as a military service."

Yun Ting's head replied: "Yes, the carrier pigeon can indeed be used as military."

"It's just that it takes a long time of domestication and training to train qualified military carrier pigeons." Yun Ting paused and said again, "but there are many inability to master them. Sometimes it not only does not promote the situation of the war, but will bring great consequences."

"What?" Zhang Liao heard it, and then his mouth widened and looked surprised. He didn't think so much, but just heard Yun Ting say this, he subconsciously thought.

"The pigeon is also slow. Sometimes when it encounters bad weather or heavy rain, its speed will decrease a lot."

"No." Zhang Liao immediately retorted. He shook his head and said, "The military messengers in this kind of weather speed also decrease, and they also have physical limitations. In many historical records, there are also cases of people and horses running to death."

"But, people are controllable after all, but carrier pigeons are uncontrollable. Not to mention the actual application on the grassland, just about the usual use, being hunted by other birds of prey and ordinary people, the information cannot be transmitted. Not to mention, when the information conveyed by one's own side is leaked and conveyed to the other side, it will be a disaster at that time." Yun Ting said.

What he said is not an exaggeration. Pigeons are faster, but they are actually used in many dangers. In their previous lives, there were many forces who conveyed military information. Pigeons were captured or died for other reasons. At that time, it was a huge joke to say that the military information you wanted to convey could reach the hands of the people you wanted to reach. Moreover, for hidden intelligence points underground, every process of releasing a pigeon is a process of exposing oneself, and it is very likely that someone else will lock the position and uproot it.
