Bell just glanced at it, and then shook his head: "It's not Meng Chong, Meng Chong is a bit like a building ship than this slender and wide boat, but with this turtle-like lid, it's the first time I've heard of it." ”

Xiahou Hui's father, Xiahou Shang, fought for many years and commanded water battles in Jingzhou, and Cao Wei also dug a basalt pond in Yecheng to train sailors, so Xiahou Hui roughly knew the difference between Meng Chong and Lou boats, and when he saw the wooden planks covered on this ship model, he thought it was Meng Chong. After hearing the bell say this, she realized that she had made a mistake.

Xiahou Hui looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, and the only outsider, Wei Ba, was snoring loudly and sleeping like a dead pig, so he stared at the bell's eyes and asked, "You are very familiar with warships?" ”

The bell was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, stuffed Wei Ba's feet into the quilt, and walked out with water. Xiahou Hui stretched out his hand, pressed it on her hand, and stared at the bell tightly.

The bell stood motionless for a moment, and said softly: "Girl, I know how to warship, and I have some secrets. However, please rest assured, since I have joined Xiahou's sect, I will not do anything unfavorable to Xiahou's family. If the girl is worried, I can leave now. ”

Xiahou Hui hesitated for a moment, slowly withdrew his hand, and said softly, "I believe in you." ”

"Thank you, girl." The bell glanced at Xiahou Hui gratefully, picked up the bucket, and hurriedly went out. When he passed by the door, Wei Xing saw tears in her eyes, so he asked curiously: "Bell, why are you crying, are you being scolded?" ”

"No, it's the feet of the army that stink." Bell said as he walked away quickly. When Wei Xing heard this, he remembered that Wei Ba hadn't washed his feet for a few days, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

In the tent, Xiahou Hui gently picked up the ship model and looked at it carefully. She found that the ship model was so delicate that it could be disassembled. Can't help but be more curious. She looked at Wei Ba and saw that he was sleeping soundly, and it was estimated that he would not wake up for a while. I quietly put the ship model into my sleeve. As soon as she hid the ship model, Wei Xing walked in and said to Xiahou Hui politely and resolutely: "Madam, I'll come to protect and join the army." ”

Xiahou Hui knows. Wei Ba and his subordinates were not at ease with her, and Wei Ba would not let her take care of her alone when she was resting. If it weren't for Wei Ba being too tired today, he would have fallen asleep as soon as he sat down. She wouldn't have had a chance to wait for Wei Ba to fall asleep.

Xiahou Hui got up and left, carrying the boat model in his sleeve, and ran all the way back to his tent, his heart pounding, for fear of being discovered. The first time she was a thief, she was trembling with nervousness. But she had no choice but to do so, and committed herself to Wei Ba. Isn't it because you want to get some useful information from Wei Ba? But Wei Ba was too cautious, he didn't let her contact the official document at all, and he didn't take her to the workshop, today was a very rare opportunity, and she refused to let it go easily.

Wait for the bell to come back. Seeing Xiahou Hui's pale face and the model of the ship on the case, she immediately understood.

"Girl, what do you want ......?"

"Bell, can you help me disassemble this ship and see what it looks like?" Xiahou Hui said anxiously.

"It should be fine." The bell wiped his hands on his clothes, picked up the ship model and checked it, and soon disassembled the ship model into several large pieces, and the technique was so skillful that Xiahou Hui was dumbfounded.

But at this moment, Xiahou Hui didn't care about digging out the secrets on the bell's body, she was engrossed in checking the results, and she couldn't wait to carve them in her mind. Bell understood her intentions, and hurriedly took out a piece of paper, measured the size of several large parts with his fingers as a ruler, and then quickly wrote down a few numbers and handed them to Xiahou Hui.

The two were busy for a while, and then they reluctantly put the ship model back together, and boiled a pot of mutton porridge, and when Wei Ba just woke up, Xiahou Hui immediately hid the boat model in his sleeve, and entered Wei Ba's tent as soon as possible.

Wei Ba stretched out his arms, yawned, sniffed his nose again, smelled the aroma of meat porridge, and suddenly had a great appetite.

"Hah, I'm so hungry." Wei Ba sat up and exaggeratedly wiped the non-existent saliva at the corner of his mouth: "You boiled it?" ”

Xiahou Hui smiled, but he had something in his heart, and he smiled a little unnaturally. She picked up the bowl and brought it to Wei Ba, and the ship model hidden in her sleeve touched the case, making a muffled sound. Her hands trembled in fright, and the porridge spilled out, making her shiver. She was just about to withdraw her hand, Wei Ba reached out and took the porridge bowl, put it on the table, grabbed her hand with the other hand, pulled it in front of her, kissed it, licked off the spilled porridge by the way, and said intoxicatedly: "It's so fragrant!" ”

Xiahou Hui retracted his hand in surprise and lowered his head nervously. Wei Bahadaxiao didn't harass her further, picked up the bowl, gobbled it up, and said while eating: "Well, your porridge has been cooked with a little jade taste, not bad, you have to continue to work hard." ”

Xiahou Hui responded perfunctorily, and quietly put the ship model under the case. The boat model left her hand, and her pounding heart calmed down a little, and she had the heart to watch Wei Ba drink porridge. Wei Ba drank three bowls of porridge in one go, and then he touched his belly with satisfaction, burped, and said with a smile: "Thank you, girl, this time I have returned my soul." ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do." Xiahou Hui smiled lightly, packed up the dishes and chopsticks, turned around and walked out of the tent, walked to the door, turned his head and said, "By the way, Captain Wei has come a few times and said that he wants to say to you about the concubine and concubine that night." ”

Wei Ba thought about it for a long time before remembering the events of the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and couldn't help but laugh. "I know, my brother is so honest that he is a little dead-eyed, if he doesn't make it clear to his face, he will always be in his heart. You go and tell Huan'er, and say I'm awake, and she'll tell my brother. ”

"Whoa." Xiahou Hui turned around to leave, but Wei Ba stopped her again: "Miss Xiahou, have you seen a model ship I brought back?" ”

"Model ships?" Xiahou Hui's heart trembled, his eyes rolled, and he pretended to be calm and said, "What kind?" ”

"That's ......," Wei Ba said as he rummaged around, and soon found the model ship from under the case. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I found it, it's okay, you go get busy." ”

"Whoa." Xiahou Hui was relieved and hurriedly left the account.

Wei Ba looked at the ship model for a while, suddenly frowned, put the ship model in front of his nose and smelled it, and smelled a faint smell, some like the smell of feet, and some not quite like it. He couldn't help but muttered in surprise, "What does this smell like?" I remember when I was making a model, I didn't pick my feet. ”

Before he could figure out what was going on, Wei Feng soon came, and as soon as they met, they gave up their hands again and again, making Wei Ba cry and laugh, so that he could be regarded as eliminating his heart disease.

Sending Wei Feng away, Wei Ba picked up the ship model again and pondered, if the speed problem could not be solved, then these armored ships would not be able to come in handy for the time being, and without a powerful warship, the attack on Xiangyang would inevitably be limited.

However, the smell of the strange fragrance always lingered on the tip of his nose, and he was distracted.

……

More than a dozen heavily armed knights, escorting a man with a simple description, rushed into Wancheng like a gust of wind. They came to the inner city where Emperor Cao Rui lived, turned on their horses, and rushed to the door with the man almost as if they were holding him hostage. As soon as he arrived at the gate, a crack opened in the city gate, and a handsome general about thirty years old walked out of it briskly and asked loudly, "Is it Langzhong Ma Jun?" ”

The leading Xiahou Ba saw that it was Qin Lang, the cavalry general beside Bixia, and hurriedly responded loudly: "Exactly, General Qin, the last general Xiahou Ba, was ordered by the general to escort Ma Langzhong here." ”

"Very good. Come in, you two, Bixia is waiting inside. Others stayed outside. ”

"Whoa." Xiahou Ba waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to wait outside the city, and carried Ma Jun into the city. Rushing all the way from Tongguan to here, Ma Jun is almost useless, and if he doesn't hold him, he will definitely be paralyzed on the ground. Seeing Ma Jun's appearance, Qin Lang also came up to help Ma Jun together. The three of them walked quickly into the city, and the inner gate closed beside them. Seeing a warrior standing on guard every five steps, Xiahou Ba was also a little nervous. Where the emperor is, it is really heavily guarded.

Cao Rui was in the hall, Sun Zi handed him a piece of official documents, and explained two sentences softly from time to time, Cao Rui listened quietly, interrupted Sun Zi from time to time, and asked two questions. Hearing the footsteps of Xiahouba and others, he waved his finger lightly at Sun Zi, who understood and walked away with the official document in his hand.

As soon as Xiahouba and the others entered the door, the door of the atrium immediately closed, and Xiahouba was taken aback, not knowing what was going on. Just when he was suspicious, Cao Rui took his hand, slowly paced from behind the case, walked to Ma Jun who was kneeling and saluting, looked down at him for a moment, and asked unhurriedly: "You are the person who helps the wind, Langzhong Ma Jun?" ”

"Back to Bixia, the minister is Langzhong Ma Jun."

"I heard that you have created a lot of offensive and defensive equipment for the general, and the effect is good. I am very relieved. There is one thing that has been urgently summoned to you this time, and perhaps only you can do it. If you can do it, I will reward you together. ”

Ma Jun was excited, and hurriedly kowtowed: "The minister wishes to die, and his liver and brain are smeared on the ground, in order to repay Bixia's kindness." ”

Cao Rui nodded with satisfaction, took out a somewhat wrinkled piece of paper from his sleeve, and handed it to Ma Jun: "Ma Jun, this is the intelligence that the lives of thirteen warriors were exchanged for, you have to be careful." ”

"Yui!" Ma Jun carefully pulled the paper, slowly unfolded it, only glanced at it, and exclaimed: "Bixia, this is a warship." ”

Cao Rui looked at Ma Jun with a calm face: "Can you copy it?" ”

"Wait for the minister to study it, it shouldn't be difficult to imitate, but I'm afraid this ship may not be of great use?"

Cao Rui looked at him puzzled.

Ma Jun's full attention was on the map, and he didn't notice Cao Rui's expression, he continued to say to himself: "This ship is too wide, the speed will not be fast, it should be similar to an ordinary building ship, if there is a guard plate, the weight will increase, and the speed will be further reduced......"

Listening to Ma Jun's babbling to himself, Qin Lang turned pale with fright, even Xiahou Ba was a little nervous, but Cao Rui showed a tolerant smile.

The pursuers were getting closer and closer, and Lao Zhuang was very nervous. Maybe Zuihou can't avoid the fate of being squeezed out, but Lao Zhuang will still try his best to get a monthly pass.

Asking for a monthly pass is an attitude! (To be continued.) )
