Chapter 125: Master Water
"Qin Jue proclaimed himself the governor of Jiangnan, who gave him the guts!"
At the headquarters of the capital, the people of Zhao Lao's faction rushed one after another, and everyone looked indignant and excited, eager to rush to Jiangcheng on the spot and pout Qin Jue.
"Old Zhao, this is Qin Jue openly opposing you!"
"I can't bear it! How can this be endured? ”
"Even Admiral Wang Bailie was openly detained by Qin Jue, he wanted to go against the whole country!"
"Let's send troops!"
A thousand words will eventually converge into one sentence.
"Send troops, Old Zhao!"
Everyone looked at the old man in plain clothes.
The old man in plain clothes was silent for a long time, and nodded slowly: "Order the First Infantry Brigade, the Third Infantry Brigade, the Anti-aircraft Missile Regiment, and the Tank Corps, a total of 10,000 people, all rush to Tiannan Province to suppress the turmoil and capture Qin Jue alive!" ”
Everyone's faces were overjoyed.
As long as Qin Jue is eliminated, then this Great Xia will completely become the plaything of Zhao Lao's palm, and at that time, they will all be regarded as ministers of the dragon.
On that day, a large number of legions were dispatched in all provinces of the Central Plains, and the marching direction of all legions was Jiangcheng.
Four corps, 10,000 troops, but everywhere they passed by attracted the attention of countless people.
When leaving the Central Plains and arriving in the Yangtze River Valley, each army encountered a tricky matter.
For some reason, the width of the Yangtze River has increased by hundreds of meters, and it is impossible to see the other side of the river at a glance.
The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the bleak water breeze sweeps the dry grass on the shore.
The commanders of the various legions gathered together and quarreled over the question of whether they could cross the Yangtze River.
One side believed that if it was to get to Jiangnan quickly, it would have to cross the Yangtze River.
The other side believes that the signal is now lost, not to mention the slow speed of the old-fashioned steel-armored ship, and its own defense capability is also weak.
"Are our soldiers afraid of weirdness?"
"We've come this way, and we haven't found any weirdness to provoke us, which proves that there are many people with strong yang energy, which is enough to resist the weirdness at this stage!"
With the order of the highest officer, the dispute ended, and everyone returned to their respective units and began to let the soldiers board the boats and cross the river.
The old steel-armored ships did not have the various radio equipment and high-tech weapons of today, only simple propellers and fuel tanks, and a thick layer of steel armor.
Steel armor is resistant to bullets.
But it can't stop the weird pervasiveness.
Finally, when the various regiments drove to the center of the Yangtze River, a steel-framed boat suddenly let out the screams of soldiers.
"Snakes! There are snakes! ”
A soldier was so frightened that he held the flagpole and did not dare to open his eyes, and pointed to the sea beyond the deck with one hand.
"What's wrong!?" An officer came up with a gloomy face: "Can a snake scare you like this?" If you want to be embarrassed, don't drop the chain for me here! ”
"Don't, squad leader, there is really a snake, a big snake, it's in the river, it's very big!"
The soldier opened his arms in fear, but felt that they were not big enough, so he simply spread his arms completely, and the distance from his left hand to his right hand was at least one meter eight.
"It's so thick, it's not right, it's even thicker than that!"
Hearing this, the faces of the surrounding soldiers were also wrong.
Can such a thick snake still be called a snake?
Generally speaking, the length of the snake is 30 times the width of the snake, the longest and largest snake known in the world is the forest snake, the largest forest snake can be 12 or 3 meters, and there is no shortage of legendary forest snakes with 17 or 8 meters.
But the width of the forest python is only forty centimeters at most, which is considered a giant level, and people are like dolls in front of this kind of forest python.
"Are you sure you saw that? Didn't see the dazzle? ”
The officer's scalp tingled instantly, and he asked cautiously.
The soldier nodded tremblingly, he was not afraid of gods and ghosts, he was not afraid of demons, but he was afraid of snakes.
"A snake with a width of one meter and eight meters is at least thirty or forty meters long...... "The officer muttered to himself, "Can there be such a big snake in the world?" ”
Suddenly, another soldier cautiously raised his hand: "Squad leader, my family is from the Yangtze River, and there is a legend in our local area.....
Legends of this kind of thing, if it were placed in the past, the big guy would have heard a new anecdote, but now what era is it, weirdness has come out, and no matter how bizarre the legend is, it can't be taken lightly.
The officer's eyes were serious: "You say!" ”
"Even if it's our local area, I don't know other places in the Yangtze River basin, my family is just a fishing village in the Yangtze River for generations......"
"Pick and choose!"
"Good!" The soldiers of the fishing village trembled and hurriedly said: "There is a feudal superstition in our local area, that is, every March 3, when the Yangtze River thaws, and the fishermen go out of the river for the first time in the New Year, they will hold a similar sacrificial activity in the fishing village, and use pigs, cattle and mutton to sacrifice to the water lord of the long river, so that the fishermen can go out of the river smoothly and return abundantly." ”
"Master Water?" The officer frowned.
"That's right! Every time the sacrifice is made, the old man of the village will cover the water lord with a red cloth, which is a stone carving, saying that it is too realistic for fear of scaring the child, and then the child is scared and crying, which makes the water lord unhappy......"
"Can you pick and choose the most important points?"
"Good! I was curious to secretly open the red cloth and see the appearance of the water master clearly, it was a snake, a snake coiled together, very long and thick, as thick as an adult's thigh, coiled up to three meters high, if it was unfolded, it was estimated that it would be more than thirty meters. ”
The soldiers of the fishing village said it all in one go.
But these words have silenced all the officers and soldiers now.
The water lord who sacrificed along the Yangtze River is also a snake?
The adult thigh-thick snake is coiled three meters high and unfolds thirty meters long...... What about the one-meter-eight-wide snake?
"Calm down!" Sensing that the atmosphere was wrong, the officer hurriedly shouted: "Don't panic!" Even if there is a big snake, can it still withstand the bullet? Sniper Homecoming! Change the armor penetration bullet and the tranquilizer bullet! If there is really a big snake in the river, whether it attacks or not, shoot it directly! ”
"Roger!"
The snipers quickly climbed the watchtower and replaced themselves with heavy armor piercing bullets the thickness of a baby's wrist, each bullet reflecting a strong orange-yellow color, the Grim Reaper of the Giant.
Even if it is a heavy armored tank, when it encounters this kind of sniper, it has to retreat, let alone just a relatively large snake?
"What you say is true?" The officer asked in a low voice, "Have you seen that water master?" ”
The soldier of the fishing village also whispered sensibly: "I have never seen it so big, but the old people in the village believe it very much, saying that the water master is the river god of the Yangtze River, and he can easily sink dozens of fishing boats." ”
The officer's eyes became more solemn.
Did you really meet the legendary water lord?
The atmosphere was dreary, and the soldiers were nervously looking at the river.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the bottom of the heavy cabin.
It was the sound of the crash, dull and loud, like the cabin had hit an iceberg.
"What's the situation!?" The officer roared.
There were cries of panic from the cabin.
"Oh no! The cabin is flooded! The cabin is flooded! ”
What!
The officer's pupils constricted.
The ship is a steel-armored ship.
As the name suggests, the entire exterior of the ship is made of steel armor, and unless it is torpedoed, it will not break at all!
"Squad leader, the cabin was knocked open by the water master, and it is going to drown us......."
The fisherman's voice trembled.
"It's over, it's over, there's really a water master."
"We're all going to be done."
