Chapter 13 Foam Crossing the River
013 Chapter 13 Foam Crossing the River
Looking at the gorgeous fireworks in mid-air, Wang Xiaoyu quickly came to his senses, immediately packed up his notebook, put on his backpack, and ran over with Moon and Mr. Hong to drag the foam boxes like a hill wrapped in fishing nets to the river. At this time, the enemy was still 400 meters away, Peng Xiaolong's pistol couldn't reach, and the snila gun ran out of bullets, so he ran over to help, and the four of them quickly pushed the foam box like a hill into the water.
Peng Xiaolong called the moon helper, lifted the unconscious guard on the beach to the foam pile, dismantled a wooden board as an oar, and climbed onto the foam pile.
Wang Xiaoyu was pulling a wooden board on the railing of the dock to be used as a paddle, but the plank was nailed too strongly, and he pulled it hard a few times, but it didn't move. When he was sweating profusely, he saw the tattered assault boat on the beach, and couldn't help but feel moved, he remembered that the engine of the assault boat and the entire drive system were hung to the stern of the boat independently, and hurriedly ran over, and sure enough, he found that it was only buckled with simple screws, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he twisted a few times to loosen the screws, and carried the entire engine thruster with a fuel tank and propeller weighing fifty or sixty pounds, and quickly ran into the river and climbed on the foam pile.
The mountain-like pile of foam, under the wooden planks of the moon and Peng Xiaolong, slowly drove towards the center of the river. Looking back at the foot of the mountain, there were many people in the moonlight, the soldiers were less than 300 meters from the pier, and some people seemed to have spotted the foam hill in the river and shot in this direction, and the bullets stirred up a series of water columns in the river. Helplessly, the two small planks in the hands of the two of them had to paddle the entire small foam mountain forward, not much faster than a snail, and more often, they were slowly drifting downstream along the river. As long as the soldiers chased close to the river, and fired all the guns in unison, none of the six people in the foam pile could escape.
Wang Xiaoyu sat on the top of a layer of foam box at the edge of the foam pile, here due to the lack of buoyancy, the part below his knee has been soaked in the river, he tried to pull the rope on the engine a few times, the engine suddenly sounded, and the propeller under the transmission rod was also rotating rapidly, he held the transmission rod in one hand, and supported the fuel tank with the other, wanting to stretch the propeller into the water and drive the entire small foam mountain forward. However, the working engine had a huge vibration, and the propeller also brought reverse centrifugal force, Wang Xiaoyu couldn't hold it, and almost fell into the river with the machine. The moon next to him hurriedly reached out and dragged Wang Yu, but the foam boxes on the edge were not buoyant enough to support two adults and an engine, so they slowly sank with the two of them.
Peng Xiaolong, who had been watching the movement here, hurriedly flew over, lying on the foam pile, his hands were separated, he grabbed Wang Yu and the moon's shoulders, and stopped the sinking trend of the two, at this time the propeller had entered the water, and a huge reverse thrust came, Wang Xiaoyu's hands trembled, and he almost couldn't hold it. The moon, who stopped the sinking trend, also stretched out his hand, supported the engine with Wang Yu, and adjusted the posture of the engine, a huge reverse thrust came from the engine, and the foam hill scurried forward, riding the wind and waves towards the center of the river.
"It's off the rails," Xiao Camellia commanded, lying on top of the foam pile, "Hurry up and turn around, now it's down the river, not far from the shore."
Wang Xiaoyu turned his head to look, isn't it, now it is rushing down smoothly, not far from the river bank, the soldiers on the mountain road are chasing down the river embankment, Wang Xiaoyu turned the propeller angle with difficulty, and the foam pile finally drove diagonally towards the downstream of the opposite bank.
In the silence of the night, the sound of motors was heard far away, and the pursuers on the dirt road suddenly realized that they no longer bent down cautiously, and dozens of people spread their feet and rushed towards the dock, and when they rushed into the dock, the building was already empty. There was still the sound of rumbling motors in the center of the river, but the river was foggy and still in the night, so I couldn't see anything. The unwilling crowd strafed the sound of the motor, and more than a dozen automatic rifles hit the river for a while, and countless bullets sank into the river fog like flying locusts.
At this time, Wang Xiaoyu and others in their hearts were already in danger, front and back, left and right, there were lightning-like bullets swept by, the bullets on the top of their heads were whizzing, and the river water under their feet was splashed with strings of splashes, although people were wrapped in dense fog, but they were in the battlefield where bullets were flying. "Peng, Peng" two bullets hit the top of the foam pile, the situation is extremely critical, everyone may be shot at any time, but everyone in the foam pile, there is nowhere to hide, there is no way to fight back, the moon even has the heart to jump into the river.
The Wild Wolf Legion fought like this, and before it hurt everyone on the foam pile in Jiang's heart, countless bullets flew over the opposite bank, and there was a crackling sound of glass breaking everywhere on the shore, causing a burst of chickens and dogs jumping. The defenders on the other side were not vegetarians, and a heavy machine gun opened fire, and the snake-like flames pier through the river fog rushed into the already broken small dock, first the improvised huts were smashed into pieces, and then, the foam pile in front of the mountain store was smashed into pieces, and then, several screams came from the direction of the river embankment, and the dozen automatic rifles that were originally shooting suddenly fell silent. By the time the heavy machine guns had ended, there was no one standing on the small pier, only the heart-rending howls of the wounded coming from the embankment.
I don't know how long it took, in the dark night, Wang Xiaoyu felt that his arms had been numb by the engine, and when he no longer belonged to him, he suddenly felt that the engine was pulled by something under the water, Wang Xiaoyu and the moon couldn't hold it, and the whole thruster fell into the water, and sank to the bottom of the river with a few gurgling sounds. Wang Xiaoyu was startled, and secretly said badly, there was a sudden pain under the soles of his feet soaked in the water, as if he had touched something, and then he was ecstatic, he touched the beach!
Wang Xiaoyu, who was exhausted, couldn't remember how to climb ashore, but after crossing to the other side, they got into a Toyota off-road vehicle, Xiao Shancha didn't want to sit in one with his grandfather, and the little girl had to squeeze into Wang Xiaoyu's car, staring at his backpack with hooked eyes. Seeing that Wang Xiaoyu's mouth was injured and it was inconvenient to speak, he pestered the moon to ask east and west. How high can your plane fly? How far can you fly? Can you catch the chicks on the ground like an eagle?
To be honest, Moon doesn't have much more knowledge about drones than Xiao Shan Cha, but his mouth is battle-hardened. In the mouth of the moon, Wang Xiaoyu's drone punches the predator and kicks the global eagle. can go to the sky and enter the earth, but due to lack of funds, I can't afford to build a bigger one, otherwise I would have gone to the moon earlier, how could Chang'e plan anything?
Xiao Camellia tilted his head, and his small eyes were full of anticipation. shouted that when she arrived at the camp, she must be allowed to play for a while, and the moon ran the train with her mouth full of mouth, and boasted that Haikou agreed. also said that he wanted to take the opportunity to point her and make her the queen of drones in the Golden Triangle, so that Xiao Shancha almost kowtowed.
Wang Xiaoyu's feet hurt so much, he fell dizzy, the corners of his mouth were numb, he had no intention of talking nonsense with them, he walked for a long time in a groggy way, and arrived at a village in the middle of the night.
When he got out of the car, he found that there were no street lights here, and many roofs were still thatched under the moonlight, but the planning was neatly built, on the edge of the playground, there were horizontal bars and parallel bars, and there was no shortage of sand pool rope nets, and there were some such as training in the army, climbing nets, wooden obstacle rails, etc., which looked like a military camp.
Enter a bungalow, which is set up like a conference room, with a circle of solid wood chairs around a long oval table. Two pots of camellia are placed in the middle of the long table, and they are in very delicate bloom. After drinking tea, several medical soldiers came to lead Wang Xiaoyu to the medical room, bandaged his wounds, and injected rabies vaccines.
He took a drip, looked up at the red zinc tile roof, and thought that this cotton north is indeed dangerous, he encountered a war just after leaving the country, and his life was almost lost, and after sending the moon to Lao Cai to settle down, he had to go back quickly. I saw the real war, which was dangerous and abnormal, far from being as exciting as it was in the movies. The key is that after going back, tell my grandmother what happened, and she will not come to northern Myanmar to find her grandfather by herself. After that, he fell asleep groggily in the infirmary.
Without dreaming, the day was frightened and tired, and his physical strength and energy were almost drained. Maybe the doctor added some sedative to him when he gave him the injection, and he even fell asleep in his dream. In the middle, he didn't even know when the doctor removed the needle from his hand.
It wasn't until noon the next day that Wang Xiaoyu woke up in a haze, and when he was thinking about whether to lie for a while, the door was suddenly knocked open, and a little girl ran in panting, it was the little camellia who fled with him yesterday, and came to the bedside, took Wang Xiaoyu's hand and shouted: "Go quickly, go quickly, the plane, someone fell!" ”
Wang Xiaoyu was inexplicable and asked puzzledly: "What was dropped?" ”
The little girl said angrily: "That Uncle Moon will brag, he said to teach me to play with drones, he can't drive it himself, and it breaks." ”
Wang Xiaoyu was startled, looked under the bed, his backpack with the drone was really gone, and secretly said that it was not good, and asked Xiao Shancha nervously: "Did you take it out to play?" Yesterday the big white pigeon was shot down on the mountain, this little red eagle is his only sample, and he is counting on meeting a buyer.
"Played", Koyama replied casually.
"Falling?" , Wang Xiaoyu's face has begun to darken.
"Fall," Koyama replied calmly.
Wang Xiaoyu stood up suddenly, used too much force, and pulled the wound on his foot again, and almost fell down with his painful cracked teeth. He leaned on the corner of the bed for a moment. Running like crazy and limping out of the playground, shouting, "My plane..."
Xiao Shan Cha followed behind, while saying, "As for it? You, just fell".
Wang Xiaoyu was about to go crazy and said, "Do you think it's a child learning to walk?" If you fall, you can run when you get up? ”
Wang Xiaoyu's expression startled Xiao Shancha, and she said weakly, "Isn't this here to call you?" In a blink of an eye, he changed his look, pulled Wang Yu's sleeve and shook it, and begged with a smile: "Why don't you teach me?" ”
Wang Xiaoyu lost her temper all of a sudden, and she didn't want to pull down her face to talk nonsense with her, so she deliberately said with a straight face: "Take me to see the plane first."
Xiao Shancha stuck out his tongue and trotted all the way to the front, leading Wang Xiaoyu to a meadow next to the barracks, where the moon was standing, frowning sadly at the broken drone. There is also a group of little boys next to him, pointing around the drone that fell to the ground, and it seems that it is Xiao Camellia's partner who came to watch the battle.
Wang Xiaoyu hurriedly went over to check, only to see that two propellers had been broken, and there was nothing wrong with the other places. It is estimated that the moon has no experience, and it rolled over during takeoff, only two propellers were damaged, and nothing else mattered. Wang Xiaoyu put his mind at ease, and he brought two more spare pairs of propellers, which were vulnerable parts.
But in order to let Xiao Shancha know the seriousness of the matter, he deliberately said to her seriously: "Drones are not toys, children can't play around." Do you know how big the damage is? This propeller is made of carbon fiber, which is very expensive, and it is not easy to buy, so you are not allowed to play secretly in the future."
Xiao Shancha's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and his eyes were staring at Wang Xiaoyu, looking pious. Since then, she really hasn't played secretly, she is playing openly, pestering Wang Yu to take her to play all day long. It was Wang Xiaoyu who regretted it, he would rather she play secretly, because Xiaoshan Tea always pestered Wang Xiaoyu to take her to play all day long, from morning to night, no matter whether it was rainy or windy, it never stopped. Although there is no commercial power supply in this camp, there is no shortage of solar power generation equipment, lighting and charging, watching TV and blowing fans are not a problem, so Wang Xiaoyu excused himself and said that it would be useless if there was no electricity. Wang Xiaoyu has been miserable by her in the past few days of recuperation.
Let's play, let's play.,It's also a problem girl.,I'll ask if I can fly a little longer with an extra battery? After a while, I asked, why is there no image when flying over the hill? made Wang Xiaoyu's head bigger than two, but these are all later words.
Just when Wang Xiaoyu had just cleaned up the damaged drone, Peng Xiaolong ran over to him and said, "Mr. Wang, the commander invites you to the conference room."
On both sides of the road leading to the conference room, there are a kind of small yellow flowers, a bit like orchids, most people think it is a weed, Wang Xiaoyu remembers, when he was a child, his father told him, it is called the battlefield yellow flower.
The setup of the conference room is relatively simple, with an oval table made of cedar in the middle, and a small groove in the middle of the round table, in which two pots of red camellia are placed. It is surrounded by a circle of wooden chairs common in the 80s in China, and three maps are pasted on the wall behind it, namely the map of the world, the map of China and the map of the cotton country.
Mr. Hung sat in a wooden chair with a regional flag of the Special Administrative Region inserted in a stationery box. Although he lost the capital of the SAR, he still holds the seat of the SAR government on his turf.
When Mr. Hong saw Wang Xiaoyu and Moon coming in, he stood up, shook Wang Xiaoyu and Yue's hands respectively, and said very seriously: "Comrade Xiao Wang, I have experienced countless dangers in my life, and I have relied on my brothers to fight to the death to ensure my safety. Yesterday you two saved me unintentionally, what a noble man for me."
Wang Xiaoyu didn't expect that he would also be a nobleman, and hurriedly said: "The commander is serious, anyone will shoot in that situation," and then felt that it was wrong, and said: "We just hit by mistake, and we didn't know in advance that the commander would pass by."
"Hahaha", Mr. Hong smiled and patted Wang Yu's shoulder, "Good, good, good." Young people, it is rare to be proud. Anyway, that's fate."
Wang Xiaoyu suddenly remembered something and asked: "We are accompanied by a motorcycle driver Xiao Li, he didn't follow when he retreated, I don't know if Mr. Hong saw it?" ”
Mr. Hong said: "That kid is very smart, when I passed by the place where you were hiding, I saw a man lying on the ground with his head in his hands, so I ignored him, and the Wild Wolf Legion would not be difficult for a border resident like him, so don't worry." ”
Hearing him say this, Wang Xiaoyu was slightly relieved.
After Mr. Hong finished speaking, he invited Wang Xiaoyu and the two to sit down as guests and hosts. A female soldier came in and poured tea for each of them, and when they were about to close the door and exit, a small head poked out of the door, the four small braids on the head door looked a little messy, and two small black eyes were dripping. found Wang Xiaoyu and just opened his mouth to shout. But when she saw the serious expression of Mr. Hong next to her, she stuck out her tongue and retreated.
Mr. Hong pretended not to see it, turned his head and asked Wang Xiaoyu, "Where is Xiao Wang from?" What kind of business did you come to northern Myanmar? ”
Wang Xiaoyu replied: "We are from northern Guangdong, and the main reason for this visit is to inquire about the news of a relative."
"Oh?" Mr. Hong asked curiously, "Xiao Wang, do you have any relatives in northern Myanmar?" ”
So Wang Xiaoyu roughly told his grandfather Wang Lizhi to enter Burma with the expeditionary force to resist Japan, Mr. Hong nodded after hearing it, and said: "Now there are indeed some veterans of the Anti-Japanese War who can't return to China, and I know several, I wonder if Xiao Wang brought your grandfather's photos?" Let me identify it and see if I can help you with something. ”
Wang Xiaoyu took out a black and white photo of his grandfather and grandmother's wedding from his pocket, which was later remade and enlarged by him into half an A4 photo. The current Wang Xiaoyu is somewhat similar to Wang Lizhi when he was young, especially the eyebrows with right angles and the clear water chestnut on his face, which are related by blood at a glance.
Mr. Hong took the photo and glanced at it, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, he was silent for a moment, and shouted outside the door: "Xiaolong, you come in."
Peng Xiaolong, who was standing guard outside the door, pushed the door in response, saluted, and stood upright, a very standard military model.
Mr. Hong beckoned to him, "Come and see this picture." After saying that, he put the photo on the conference table and pushed it forward.
Peng Xiaolong took this photo and looked at it, sighed, scratched the back of his head with his left hand, and said suspiciously: "Commander, isn't this person Huang Jiahao of the Special Service Company?" Is he acting? and still wearing costumes".
"Hahaha", Mr. Hong said with a smile: "It turns out that I am not dizzy, the two people are really similar." After speaking, he turned to Wang Xiaoyu and said: "Your grandfather is too similar to our correspondent Huang Jiahao, if it weren't for Huang Jiahao, who is only in his early 20s, he would almost be the person you are looking for." ”
Wang Xiaoyu asked in surprise, "Really?" Can you call me to recognize us, since we are so similar, maybe we are blood relatives? ”
Mr. Hong smiled and said: "Originally, I also suspected that he had some kind of relationship with your grandfather, but his surname is Huang and not Wang, and in addition, even his father, I know, was born in Mianbei and is a native of Gokan." ”
Wang Xiaoyu couldn't help but be deflated after hearing this, but is there really a person who looks so similar to his grandfather? secretly wrote down the name Huang Jiahao. I couldn't help but be interested in him, so I asked, "Mr. Hong, can you let Huang Jiahao come out and meet me?" ”
Mr. Hong smiled and said, "Xiaolong, you go and find Huang Jiahao." ”
Peng Xiaolong said with an embarrassed face: "But Huang Jiahao is out on a mission, and he may not be able to come back in a short time."
Mr. Hong asked, "How long will it take to come back?" ”
Peng Xiaolong replied: "At least for a few days, he went to the west, Hongyan base."
Mr. Hong listened and stopped talking, and he remembered that this was a very important task, and it was a bit far away. So he said apologetically to Wang Yu: "Comrade Xiao Wang, you also heard it, this thing is not a coincidence. But as soon as he returns, I'll arrange for you to meet as soon as possible. ”
Wang Xiaoyu nodded helplessly. Peng Xiaolong saluted and then turned around and went out.
Mr. Hong said: "Comrade Xiao Wang, you don't need to worry, first heal your wounds, and then I suggest that you go to the Memorial Hall of the Tonggucheng Expeditionary Force to investigate." There are often some veterans of the expeditionary force who gather together to remember their former comrades, and you should know a little bit about your grandfather. ”
Wang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Mr. Hong!" Uncle Chen Feng also mentioned the Expeditionary Force Memorial Hall, it seems that he has to go there.
"Hahaha", Mr. Hong smiled heartily and said: "I heard your cousin's introduction in the morning, you are still a top student of a famous school, and you are a cultural person, I didn't expect your Jianghu atmosphere to be so full." ”
Wang Xiaoyu smiled embarrassedly, this was just a natural reaction to watching too many TV series.
Mr. Hong said: "I heard your cousin say that for love, he is ready to find a job in Mianbei. I wonder if Comrade Xiao Wang is interested in staying in Mianbei for development? Create a great cause with us? ”
