Chapter 400: Crash and sink
There were no oars for sliding on the ship, and if you wanted the ship to move, you had to install a mechanism, so there were a lot of parts for setting up the mechanism on the boat. While the two ships have not yet met, it is necessary to increase the speed of the hull sailing in the fastest time, and whichever side finishes first will have the opportunity to win.
Guo Wenying didn't dare to delay, and immediately sat on the boat and concentrated on installing it, Pi Xiaosan and Hengsan didn't know anything about it, and they didn't dare to disturb her, so they sat at the bow of the boat and watched. Xu Zhong handed her tools on the side, and fed her a few mouthfuls of water from time to time.
Guo Wenying's hands were busy and she didn't have time to drink water, so Xu Zhong handed her a teacup to her lips and watched her take a few sips to moisturize her lips.
I don't know if it's Xu Zhong's heart, I always feel that there seems to be a pair of eyes staring at him behind him, and I can see that he is wonderfully covered in white sweat, looking around, and he can't seem to find the owner of those eyes, and he can't help muttering: "It's really a hell." ”
Guo Wenying's loading and unloading mechanism has been very nimble for many years, and after a while, the hull operation mechanism was installed, and she started it gently, and the hull immediately moved. Turning her head to see that the few people on the boat opposite were still busy, she sighed softly, this time the competition was expected to be won.
Activating the warship and quickly approaching the opposing ship, the people on the boat seemed to be in a hurry, and from time to time someone jumped on their feet, as if they were thinking that the installation was too slow. As I got closer, I heard someone shouting, "Hurry, hurry, they're coming." ”
When Pi Xiaosan saw it, he couldn't help but be very proud, and praised: "It's still our leader, one of them is the four." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the hull of the ship shook violently, and then water came out of the bottom of the boat.
Guo Wenying frowned slightly, she didn't expect Bai Yusheng to cheat, dig holes in the bottom of the boat, and then apply wax oil, so that it could not be seen at the beginning, once it was soaked in the water for a long time, the wax oil would melt away, and the boat would gradually sink.
The three of them were dumbfounded, seeing that it was too late, Guo Wenying frowned and said to Xu Zhong: "Find a way to get the water out, I'll make a pump." ”
This pump was inspired by watching the agricultural science competition that day, and she combined it with the pump used in later generations to improve it, which implies the most basic essence of the mechanism.
She was very quick to install the gear pulling wraps one by one, but she did it very skillfully, but after a while, she had already installed the pumping equipment, and then began to operate the pumping equipment to pump out most of the water pouring into the boat, which was considered to suppress the sinking speed of the boat.
At this time, Peng Cheng's ship for a few days had also been equipped with mechanisms and had already driven the ship to this side, and they fell behind in this delay. Not only did they assemble some of the sharpest things in the bow of the ship. These sharp weapons were like monstrous beasts that opened their fangs and maws, and headed for the small boat that was still spinning in place......
Pi Xiaosan looked anxious, and touched the fire gun on his body, "Boss, if there is danger later, I will definitely be able to save my head." ”
Guo Wenying glanced at him, "Don't start a fire unless you have to." ”
Their identities are just mechanics, and the fire guns on their bodies are inconsistent, if they really light the fire guns, it is definitely not as simple as revealing their identities.
Guo Wenying asked Xu Zhong to fix the small mechanism of the pump on the boat, and when the handle was shaken, the pump began to operate, but instead of pumping water, it drove a few small pieces of wood, causing a splash, and then the boat began to move on the surface of the river.
The people watching the excitement on the shore cheered loudly when they saw this scene, especially those who waved small flags, and the shouts were even more shocking.
The rotation of those wooden chips is very similar to the propellers of later generations, and the ship runs faster by the rotation of the oars. Before Peng Cheng's ship collided, they had quickly detached.
Peng Cheng was not reconciled, and commanded people to turn the mechanism and chase closely behind, running around on the water on both sides. Their boat was fast, and Peng Cheng's boat couldn't catch up at all, so he couldn't help but be angry and annoyed.
Wei Qi said hatefully: "Master said that he had made preparations earlier, but he didn't expect the ship to be able to run so fast after digging a hole." Who is that kid who said that he was Xu Zhong's assistant? This kid's skills are really outstanding, and there are so many of us who can't compare to this kid. ”
Peng Cheng said: "There are people outside the world, there are people outside the sky, do you now know that there are people in this world who are better than you? He paused slightly, "It seems that you can't use some ruthless means today." ”
Ordered someone to raise the small sails on the boat, and the speed of the ship suddenly increased a lot, and all kinds of organs and utensils placed on the two ships were prepared by Bai Yusheng, which was naturally biased and directional, such as small sails, Guo Wenying's boat did not have it. Otherwise, how could it be made in such a short time?
The ship sailed towards Guo Wenying's ship at a very fast speed, their bow was extremely hard, and if they really collided, they were afraid that they would be torn apart. And there is always a faint feeling that the ship I sit on is not as strong as I imagined, although the appearance looks the same, but the inside is not easy to study, I am afraid that the materials used in shipbuilding are different. Looking at the waterlines of the two ships, it is clear that this one is much lighter than theirs. Bai Yusheng is really hateful, and in order to win, he will do whatever it takes to win, not only digging holes in their ship, but also getting them an inferior ship.
If it goes on like this, sooner or later it will sink people.
Guo Wenying pondered for a moment, and said to Pi Xiaosan: "Give me your firecracker." ”
Pi Xiaosan took it out and gave it to her, and asked in a low voice, "Boss, what are you going to do?"
Guo Wenying said: "Make a good thing for them, they play yin, we can't be too serious, and find a way to make a hole in their boat for a while." As she spoke, she quickly took out all the ammunition from the gun, poured out the gunpowder inside, and filled it into a piece of cork, and then shot the fire twist and the ignition mechanism.
After she was done, she said to Xu Zhong, who was operating the boat: "The boat should go slower and let them catch up." ”
Xu Zhong let out an "oh", although he didn't know why, he still did as she said.
Guo Wenying had fought in naval battles, and she had a lot of experience in how to lure the enemy into taking the bait, she asked Xu Zhong to start pretending that the ship was struggling, and then asked Hengsan and Pi Xiaosan to pretend that the water in the ship could not be pumped out, and it looked like the ship was about to sink immediately.
Pi Xiaosan and Hengsan are both old fritters in this regard, and immediately pretended to be panicked and shouted, "Oh no, no, the ship is sinking." Then he desperately scooped out the water, which was a part of the water that had just been pumped out with a water pump, and put it in a tin bucket, and the two of them scooped water out of the tin bucket, and it was really like that.
