Han Hsin use kites to measure how far it was to an enemy camp so they could dig uner their defenses and take them by suprise. In 1300 A.D. Marco Polo saw the chinese use kites on the battlefield to let spies see from a high vantage point. Later in the 17th century other people observed soliers on kites acting as chinese spies.
