Chapter 53 The first test of the speed of the steamship canal

The news of Qi Dong's exile came out, only knowing that he was exiled, but few people knew where he was exiled, and many people did not know, what place would be more suitable for exile than Lingnan?

In short, this person is no longer in Luzhou, and his family is also leaving, so that those who want to find it have nowhere to look, there is such an example.

Zhang Xiaobao saw that things were on track, and Wang Juan took fifty-six people from the No. 0 seedling protection team to train, this time the chosen place was a little far away from the state capital, and they wanted to enter the 100,000 mountains and go there to hunt some prey, the most important thing is to train and guard the jungle warfare, and Zhang Xiaobao is personally responsible.

Don't look at Wang Juan is from a professional class, but jungle warfare is not as good as Zhang Xiaobao, Zhang Xiaobao learned some from prison when he was in China, and when he went abroad, he also specially found a place with a lot of jungles and practiced hard, and the instructors invited were all special forces people, all countries have them, and each country has its own characteristics.

Especially in Africa, some of those people have even survived in the jungle since they were children, so that Zhang Xiaobao has learned a lot of things, even if at that time they were not as good as the masters who lived in the jungle for most of their lives.

When he knew that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were going to take people to the mountains, he deliberately prepared his backpack, which was loaded with things from previous wilderness survival training, including the fifty palace guards he was going to bring this time, and he also made sufficient preparations, one backpack per person.

But when he arrived at the door to meet Zhang Xiaobao and a group of people, he found that they didn't have backpacks at all, and the clothes they wore were different, yellow and green, with a lot of pockets stuffed inside, which didn't look like much, and everyone was holding a black machete in their hands.

That's all, nothing else, not to mention anything like he still has a crossbow on his side.

"Xiaobao, no, what about the backpack, why don't you get ready? Isn't survival in the wild about sorting everything out in advance? What are you going to eat when you do that? ”

Li Xun pulled Zhang Xiaobao and asked.

"Who says you have to prepare things in advance to survive in the wild? Give you time to prepare, you can prepare, and where can you prepare without that time? In this way, he tied his legs, set off, and traveled all the way, this place is three hundred and twenty miles away from the mountain, and he asked, three days and two nights to arrive, that is, thirty hours, Li Gongzi couldn't run for a while, and followed me and Juan Juan on horseback. ”

Zhang Xiaobao began to play leggings there, Li Xun didn't say anything, waved his hand to the people behind him, and the palace guards also began to play leggings, Li Xun usually practiced them the same, followed Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to learn, and the fifty selected people listened to the distance and estimated time, and felt that it was an impossible task.

The leggings were laid, and the people of the seedling protection team put the knife behind their backs, moved their legs and feet slightly, and ran in two rows, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and Li Xun ran behind the fifty-six people, and there were more than a dozen horses next to them, and they also ran together, and Li Xun's guards were at the rear, so they were not afraid that the three people in the middle would be in danger.

This time, Li Xun also understood, it seemed to be different from the previous survival in the wild, when he was running, he could still keep up at first, but he didn't dare to speak, and used the method he learned from Zhang Xiaobao to adjust his breathing and pace.

This kind of speed is okay for adults, but it is a little difficult for Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, the two of them spent a quarter of an hour, ran nearly seven miles, broke away from the team, turned over and got on the horse, this speed is too slow for adults, and it took more than three kilometers in fifteen minutes.

But for Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, it is already the limit, even if the two of them have trained very seriously and constantly improved themselves, they can't run farther, let alone press the speed of each kilometer to within three and a half, and they can't vomit blood.

And can only hold on to such a long distance, or on the repaired road conditions, this has already scared Li Xun, he followed the speed of the team, only ran three miles and then couldn't, to the side of the horse sat down, panting, he regretted a little that he carried the bag, the things contained in it were very heavy.

The guards of the palace are not easy one by one, not only carrying bags, but also knives and crossbows on their bodies, dead and heavy, but the people of the seedling team can insist, they usually train to carry weights, but now there is no weight, and they are naturally not so tired when running.

"Slow down, don't run so fast, it's enough for you to run for a quarter of an hour without weights, and you can really keep running? Can you run seven miles in a quarter of an hour, twenty-eight miles in an hour, and one hundred and forty miles in five hours? Today I have to run for seven hours, a hundred miles, adjust by myself, and rest halfway is also counted. ”

Wang Juan looked at the people of the seedling guard team on the horse, and he was about to compare his feet with the palace guards, and hurriedly shouted to slow down, otherwise he wouldn't have to do anything else after running at this speed for an hour.

Wang Juan knew in his heart, seven hours and a hundred miles, not much, when looking at the previous historical data, the fastest forced march of the People's Liberation Army could run out of a hundred miles in fourteen hours, and she had to carry heavy weapons and ammunition on her body, and she could enter the battle with a little rest, and her inhuman existence was also at that time, so she decided to enter the military colonel.

This time it was three hundred and twenty miles, in fact, it could be about the same as three hundred and forty-five miles over there, and in two and a half days, the person who carried three days of food on his body, as well as a knife and a rope and salt that did not take much weight, should be very easy.

The people of the seedling protection team have been accustomed to the dogma of military orders, and when they heard the words of the little lady, they immediately began to adjust themselves, and the palace guards had been pressed just now, and when they saw that there was an opportunity, they rushed up and ran to the front of the seedling protection team.

Li Xun originally wanted them to slow down, but after thinking about it, he thought about it for a while, and let them run well when they could run, and then clean up when they couldn't run, so as not to be like this in the future.

"Come on, come on, hurry, overtake their ship, one more overtake, there's still one ahead."

In the canal leading from Chuzhou to Hangzhou, a boat full sail went all the way super fast, perhaps thinking that this was not fast enough, the wheels on both sides of the boat were also turning, and the back of the boat was splashing at the same time.

Xin'er stood on the bow of the boat, shouting excitedly to refuel, the person next to her didn't know what refueling meant, listening to her shouting, she asked curiously: "Little lady, what does refueling mean?" ”

"Don't even know if it's coming on? Xiaobao and Juan Juan sometimes shouted like this, the propeller behind it needs to rotate like an axle, and you have to add some oil to it, otherwise it won't be able to rotate, so you have to refuel. ”

Xin'er explained to the protector one by one, and at this time, the boat overtook another boat, which made the people on the boat who were overtaken look sideways, I don't know where the ship came from, so fast, waiting to see the rice seedlings on the flag, only then did I know that it was the boat there in the water and clouds, the kind that can easily run by sea.

The following manpower propeller has been working for three hours, and it is not broken, and the things made by the Ministry of Industry are indeed better than those made by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's craftsmen.

Don't look at the propellers, the speed is not as good as the diesel burner, or it can't be compared, the speed of rotation is slow, even if the lever is used, but for the boat at this time, with the sail and wheels together, it has some effect.

Today is a good catch up with a good gust of wind, this is the full sail, Xin'er wants to get to the place early, the old man also wants to see what it looks like when the speed is at full speed, the wheels on both sides turned, and the propellers below also rotated.

The boat overtook all the way, and there were unconvinced boats, sails and oars, and wanted to follow the competition, but they were left farther behind.

"Quick, quick, two more ships, overtaking them too." The wind-blown clothes were hunting, and Xin'er felt very happy today, jumping and screaming, scaring the people who protected her.

The two ships didn't seem to want to be overtaken, and they rowed hard, but the distance between the two sides was getting closer, and after a while, the ship caught up to the tail of one of the ships, and I don't know what the people on the two ships thought, and suddenly the ship in front began to turn to the side, and slowed down.

If the ship still rushes along the original course, it will definitely crash into the side of that ship, and even now, it cannot be changed by a normal ship, even if the sails are lowered, and all the oars are flat and the water is useless.

The old man stood on the deck and scolded, "Whose ship is so rampant? If you want to fight hard, you drop the sails, the propellers stop, the two wheels are reversed, and the sticks are erected. ”

At the old man's command, the sail fell quickly, and the propeller behind it also stopped, and the man who was pedaling the wheels on both sides began to struggle to stop the pedals under his feet, and then began to pedal in reverse, and the wheel shafts on both sides made a creaking friction sound, and a few holes were pulled from the top of the first floor of the ship, and thick logs stretched out of the mouths.

The old man took out his clairvoyance and looked at the ship in front of him, wanting to know who the people on the ship were, but he could not see it from the stern, even if the ship in front of him turned a little and made preparations to intercept it, he could not see the foredeck.

The steamer going down the river finally slowed down when its two wheels were reversed, but it did not stop completely, let alone go backwards, and when it was about to collide, the ship suddenly turned back and accelerated again, leaving the ship behind.

The old man now understood that the people on the boat were deliberately making such an action to scare people, and when he thought of this, he became more and more angry, and ordered: "Catch up, they will slow down again and hit directly." ”

The people on the boat were just about to hoist the sails according to the order, when suddenly the wind direction changed, and without waiting for the old man to speak, Xin'er shouted: "Raise the spinnaker, chase me, see if they are still so fast?" ”
