Chapter 318: Crossing the River
Looking at Wei Yun's figure, Lin Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, his Yun'er was simply a capable person walking, as if she had encountered something, and there was no way she couldn't think of it.
Immediately, Lin Mo turned around and walked towards Lin Xu's side, and then instructed Yan Mu to find all the ropes and stirrups.
When Wei Yun woke up, it was already close to noon, and she walked out of the camp tent at this time, and saw that there were already a lot of bamboos carrying towards the river.
Lin Xu saw Wei Yun coming, and immediately hurriedly walked over and said to Wei Yun, "The bamboo has been cut enough, and now we have started to make a bamboo raft by the river, how should I get the rope you said?" ”
"Are the ropes ready?" Wei Yun nodded after hearing this, then looked at Lin Xu and asked.
Lin Mo also walked over at this time, "It's all ready." ”
"Alright, I'll go see the location and pull the rope up first." Wei Yun responded, and then a few people walked towards the river.
When he arrived at the river, two bamboo rafts had been made, Wei Yun glanced at them, and then walked forward and said, "This bamboo raft needs to be made bigger." ”
"Well, I'll let someone do it." Yan Mu responded, and then turned around and ordered.
The current is too fast, the bamboo raft is too small, it is difficult for people to control their bodies standing on it, and the bamboo raft is larger, so it will be more stable.
Immediately, Wei Yun walked to the position of the big trees opposite, and then looked back to see if there was a place to fix the rope here.
Yesterday the trees were not flooded, due to the rain that fell overnight yesterday. The water level rose again, and the trees were flooded, and although the trees were not washed down, the soil at their roots must have softened.
For the sake of safety, Wei Yunjue's rope cannot be fixed here.
Immediately, Wei Yun looked to the side again, and there were indeed three or four stout trees not far away.
Seeing this, Wei Yun walked over and squinted at the trees on the opposite shore.
In this direction, it is more oblique, and the raft can easily be overturned.
I saw Wei Yun think for a moment, and then nodded, if the direction is oblique, in order to prevent the bamboo raft from being overturned, she can make the rope attached to the bamboo raft longer on one side and shorter on the back side.
Under the impact of the water, it is possible to keep the bamboo raft balanced.
Seeing Wei Yun standing there, Yan Xu walked over and asked, "But what's the problem?" ”
"No, go and call the people who know how to water, and I'll tell them." Wei Yun shook her head and continued.
Yan Xu responded, and then turned around to find Brother Yang Zhong.
A moment later, Yan Xu led the two of them over.
Wei Yun asked at this time, "How are you water-based?" ”
"Don't worry, young lady, our two brothers have been fishing with our father since they were children, and they are very good at water." Yang Zhong said to Wei Yun.
I saw Wei Yun nodding at this time, "This is not more than usual, the water is very fast, when you get to the water, you may be able to control your body?" ”
"This ...... It should be no problem, when we were fishing with my father when we were young, we also encountered big waves, which was nothing compared to that time. Yang Zhong's younger brother Yang Yi glanced at the river in front of him, and then said.
Hearing this, Wei Yun couldn't help but feel confident in her heart, and then asked, "What if you have a rope on your back?" ”
"No problem." The two brothers looked at each other and then spoke.
Seeing that the two of them were so determined, Wei Yun looked at the turbulent river again, and still said to the two, "During the safety period, I will have someone buckle another rope on you, and if something happens on the way, I can pull you back." ”
The two brothers responded, and then followed Wei Yun to the big trees just now.
Wei Yun pointed to the thicker part of the tree at the top and said, "Fix this rope there." ”
After hearing this, Yan Mu leaned over and pulled up one end of the rope, and then with a toe flick, he flew to the position where Wei Yun was talking.
I saw that Yan Mu wrapped the rope around the thick branch a few times, and then fixed the rope, and when it was done, he jumped down from the tree.
Then another rope was attached to another tree.
After everything was done, Wei Yun explained to the two brothers of the Yang family, "After you swim to the other side, do you see those trees, fix the other end of the rope in a thick place, and the distance between the two ropes should be similar to this side, not too many gaps, and you must stretch the rope hard, you know?" ”
"Don't worry, young lady, it's on my two brothers." After Yang Zhong heard this, he patted his chest and said to Wei Yun.
Wei Yun nodded, and after checking the rope repeatedly, the two brothers of the Yang family went down the river.
I saw that as soon as the two of them arrived in the river, another wave hit and slapped the two of them directly into it, and when they saw this, the people on the shore couldn't help but take a breath.
Fortunately, a moment later, their heads were revealed again, and they reached out to the people on the shore to signal that they were all right.
Seeing this, Wei Yun was relieved.
After swimming for a long time of incense, everyone saw the two brothers of the Yang family go ashore, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, the Yang brothers tied the rope according to what Wei Yun said.
That's when I swam this way.
Seeing this, Wei Yun asked Yan Mu to watch, and she walked to the side where she was making a bamboo raft.
"Is it okay to fight like this on a bamboo raft?" Lin Xu pointed to the widened bamboo raft just now and asked Wei Yun.
Wei Yun looked at it, and then nodded, "Well, it's okay, just make a few more according to this ratio." ”
As he spoke, Wei Yun walked to a bamboo raft that had just been made, leaned over and pointed to the bamboo raft and said, "Here and here, each side is fixed with three ropes, and it must be tied strongly." ”
"Did you hear that, tie it according to what the young lady said." Lin Xu repeated at this time.
Soon, the first raft was tied.
Then Wei Yun said, "Take four more bamboos, fix the rope vertically, about the place around the waist, and wrap it around like this." ”
Looking at the bamboo raft that had been tied, Wei Yun couldn't help but worry, it would definitely be difficult for the soldiers to stand firm when they went up and the impact of the current, so Wei Yun simply asked people to fix the surroundings again, as long as there was a place for hands to support, it should be foolproof.
Soon, the first bamboo raft was fixed, and then Lin Xu asked people to carry it to the side where the rope had been fixed.
The stirrups on all the horses have been removed and brought over.
Immediately, Wei Yun asked people to string the stirrups evenly on the rope.
Once it was ready, the raft was fastened to the stirrups.
After the first one was done, Wei Yun said, "The next one will also be made according to this, one bamboo raft needs six stirrups, according to this number, you can also make two bamboo rafts, everyone is faster, so that you can go to the other side of the river earlier." ”
After hearing this, everyone responded, and then quickly went back to the next one.
After the raft was ready, it was already dark, and then the sky was drifting with scattered raindrops.
Lin Mo said to Lin Xu at this time, "Let everyone go back and rest for one night first, and tomorrow morning, we will cross the river in batches." ”
"Okay, I'll give you the order." Lin Xu responded, and then turned around and walked to the side.
After Lin Xu left, Lin Mo looked at Wei Yun, "Are you tired?" ”
Wei Yun looked at Lin Mo at this time and shook his head slightly, and then said with a smile, "I'm just an overseer, I'm tired, it's those soldiers who are tired." ”
"When the bandits are successful, let them rest and rest." Lin Mo said at this time.
Wei Yun nodded, and then the two walked towards the tent.
The next day, it was just dawn.
So the soldiers put away their tents, packed up their things, and prepared to go to the river.
Wei Yun stretched out on time, and then got up too, the soldiers and the supplies in the army, if they want to cross the river, this is not a matter of a while.
Thankfully, it's a sunny day, and if it's still raining, I'm afraid I'll have to stay here for another day.
When everything was ready, everyone began to walk to the river,
Although it didn't rain overnight last night, the water level still rose a bit.
The raft in front of the queue was mostly flooded by this time.
At this time, Wei Yun walked up to the soldiers and said, "Who would like to be the first to go to the other side first?" ”
"Miss Wei, let me go first." I saw Fang Qing stand up from the side at this time, and then spoke.
After Wei Yun heard this, he immediately walked up to Fang Qing and looked at him and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure you can do it?" ”
"The first time I knew it was important, Miss Wei, don't worry, I can." Fang Qing said with a determined face at this time.
Then Wei Yun nodded in response, "Well, then you will lead ten people across the river first and explore the situation first." ”
Fang Qing responded, and then stood aside.
Lin Xu on the side pointed to the soldiers in the front row at this time, "A few of you cross the river first." ”
After putting the bamboo raft into the water, Fang Qing was still a soldier, so he got on the bamboo raft one after another.
The bamboo raft was no better than the land, and Fang Qing only felt that the soles of his feet were soft, as if he was stepping on cotton.
There were other soldiers who were bobbing back and forth.
Seeing this, Wei Yun hurriedly said, "Everyone dispersed, holding on to the bamboo and walking slowly, with two people standing at the bow and stern of the boat, and three people standing on both sides." ”
After Fang Qing heard this, he repeated, and within a moment, he dispersed according to Wei Yun's method,
Since the current on the shore was good, everyone quickly stabilized their footing.
Seeing that there were still many gaps on the bamboo raft, Lin Xu asked Wei Yun at this time, "How many more people do you want to add?" ”
"For the time being, let's wait for the boat to pass safely, and then slowly add people." Wei Yun then said to Lin Xu.
Lin Xu nodded after hearing this, "It's okay." ”
Seeing that the people on the bamboo raft were all standing, Wei Yun said to the people standing in the middle on both sides, "You take the bamboo pole, use it to control the flow of water, and let the bamboo raft move forward." ”
Standing in the middle of the two sides, he nodded, and then put the bamboo pole on the shore, and as soon as the stirrups sounded, the raft began to move.
At first, it was okay, after all, it was the shore, and there was not much current, but when it was almost halfway through, the current became stronger, and the bamboo raft couldn't help but have some difficulty in controlling it.
At this moment, a wave hit, and the raft couldn't help but tilt to the side.
The soldiers couldn't help but look flustered and at a loss.
Seeing this, Fang Qing hurriedly said at this time, "Don't panic, everyone, as long as you hold on tightly, there will be no problems." ”
