Chapter 206: Bumper Boats
Chapter 206 Bumper Boats
Due to the coincidence of Wu Xuewen and the hidden concern about the security of Hehong Town, Hu Wei ordered to change the itinerary and get on the boat immediately after dinner. Where is the fastest update of the novel? Please look for the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info and let the boatman immediately set sail and go more than ten miles north along the Kyushu River before stopping the boat at a bend in the river to rest.
The ship rented by Hou San is quite large, about seventy percent new, and the bow is wrapped with iron armor, which looks a bit like a warship. Hu Wei was a little puzzled about this, and Wu Xuewen replied, saying that this was originally a warship, but it was only sold by a brave officer in the name of damage. For this answer, Hu Wei sighed lightly in his heart, the country is about to die, there will be demons, and now while the Mandala Empire is in trouble, all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods have jumped out. Even military supplies dare to be taken out, and what else do they dare not do.
It's useless to sigh, Hu Wei can't take care of such a thing now. As long as he can ensure that the Immortal Bird Legion does not have such problems, it is already very good.
The quality of the ship was much better than that of ordinary ships, and it was very spacious and sturdy, with five or six rooms for guests. Since Hou San chartered the entire ship, these rooms were all temporarily used by them. Hu Wei told Ximen Xue to leave a good room for Wu Xuewen, and let Ximen Xue discuss the other rooms.
As for the problem of probing the details of the ship's family, Zhu Daneng naturally came forward to find out. He was born in a family, has seen a lot of the world, and his observation is not bad, so he is the most suitable candidate.
There are special people to do all the arrangements, and there is no need to worry about these trivial things. How to say that he is also the master of an army, he is in charge of everything, and he has to die of busyness.
Fuchen was very well-behaved and knew that Hu Wei and Wu Xuewen must have something to discuss, so he prepared some wine, tea and snacks for the two of them on the deck, so he pulled the star and hid far away. In this way, you can protect Hu Wei without disturbing them.
Wu Xuewen poured a glass of wine for Hu You, and asked with a smile: "I don't know if I should call you an immortal bird, or a young marshal, or a king of waves?"
Hu Wei threw two peanuts into his mouth, stepped on the stool with one leg, and said like a ruffian: "This thing is just a title, whatever you like." It's better to call it Hu Wei, just like when I was in school before. ”
"Okay, then it's called Hu Wei. Wu Xuewen happily said to Hu Wei: "When the Columbia Military Academy parted, it was two years in the blink of an eye. You've been doing a good job in the past two years, and I can hear stories about you wherever I go. Arrow to take Tiekla's right eye, and take Langtian City in one day"
Hu Wei waved his hand and said, "Come on, don't laugh at me, I'm all a fool, and I can't get on the stage." ”
Wu Xuewen said: "I'm telling the truth, do you know that now in the people, especially in the hearts of young people, you have become their goal." Countless young people want to emulate your success. ”
Hu worriedly said: They only saw thieves eating meat, but they didn't see thieves being beaten. The young master didn't know how many times he had lived and died before he made today's achievements. If you're unlucky, you don't know where you're going to die. Success can be aspired to, but it can never be replicated.
Wu Xuewen poured another glass of wine and said, "By the way, I haven't had a chance to ask you." After you left the school, did you see Ouyang Hanbing again? She's a good girl, and it's a pity to lose it. ”
Hu Wei didn't want to tell Ouyang Hanbing's identity to Wu Xuewen for the time being, so he made an unfathomable look, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, that's the woman I have decided, and I'm going to make a decision." ”
"Okay, don't just talk about me, let's talk about you. How have you been in the past few years? Have you got a wife?"
Wu Xuewen smiled bitterly: "Compared to you, I am far behind." After you left school, many of your classmates also left. I stayed in school for another year, and when I was done, I returned to the Mandala Empire.
When I went home, it was Marshal Ximen Yufeng who led the army to attack Anrongnahui. I thought it should be my chance, but I didn't get in the army a few times. When I was a soldier, I couldn't do it, and as a think tank, the generals didn't even look at me.
After that, my family helped me find a job in Xixi, teaching the children of aristocratic families to read and write. I worked for more than half a year, but I couldn't do it anymore, so I ran out. ”
Hu Wei laughed and patted Wu Xuewen's shoulder and said, "The quiet place is not suitable for you, and being a bystander is not your character." Now is the most exciting time in the Tianfeng Continent, with your talents, running to teach, wouldn't you have lost many years of military academy learning?
I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, as early as when I was at the Columbia Military Academy, I admired your military knowledge. It's just that I was too small to mention this at that time. Now that I've opened up some of the situation, if my brother can afford me, he will come and work with me. Let us brothers join hands to create a new era that belongs to us. Even if the horse leather shroud is better than the years"
Wu Xuewen was taken aback and said, "Hu Wei, you want to"
With Hu Wei's words, coupled with Hu Wei's domineering attitude when he said this, Wu Xuewen naturally heard the secret meaning of Hu Wei's unwillingness. He always knew that Hu Wei was a very ambitious person, but he didn't expect that Hu Wei would have a bold heart.
For this point, Hu Wei did not intend to hide Wu Xuexue, and said with a twinkle in his eyes: "Although the Mandala Empire has only been established for more than 40 years, all kinds of evils have been born, and now the empire is worried about internal and external troubles, and the people in the upper echelons are still drunk and dreaming of death. The collapse of the mountain is already a matter of time, so why don't you and I take this opportunity to establish a new order. ”
A gleam flashed in Wu Xuewen's eyes and said, "Do you know how difficult this road is?"
Hu Wei raised his head and said: "Even if there are thousands of difficulties, as long as we dare to experience it, even if it is death, we will have a wonderful life." ”
"Well said" Wu Xuewen patted the table and said: "A wonderful life, just for this sentence." I, Wu Xuewen, did it with you. Young marshal, please bow to Wu Xuewen"
"Hahaha"
As a result, Hu Wei finally gained the wisdom of Wu Xuewen, who was later known as one of the three golden generals of the Immortal Bird Legion. History proves how prescient Hu Wei's decision at the Columbia Military Academy was to pay attention to accepting Wu Xue.
Many years later, some historians spent ten years analyzing the role of Wu Xuewen on Hu Wei. In the end, it was concluded that if Hu Wei had not met Wu Xuewen at the Columbia Military Academy, then his time to unify the Mandala Empire would have been delayed by at least ten years. Then he wouldn't have the power to stop the crisis that swept across the entire Heavenly Wind Continent.
A drink and a peck, it is all providence. History always has conclusions, not ifs. If that had to be counted, shouldn't the father of the Golden Phoenix who beat Hu Wei to a serious injury and throw him into the back mountain become the hero of the Tianfeng Continent?
If there is no him, then Hu Wei is likely to appear directly, and he will still be mixed with the Golden Phoenix in the Huang Mansion, or he may be promoted from a small worker to a steward, or become the uncle of the Huang family, and go to another path altogether, instead of joining the army in the Blizzard Legion.
The iron-headed boat went all the way north and went against the tide on the turbulent Kyushu River. After Wu Xuewen returned, Hu Wei's northbound team had another person.
Hu Wei temporarily appointed Wu Xuewen as a military advisor, and Ximen Xue and Xuan Ri were also military counselors. However, due to Wu Xuewen's lack of merit, Hu Wei did not give Wu Xuewen any military rank.
The addition of Wu Xuewen slightly alleviated the problem of the prosperity and decline of the military divisions under Hu Wei. Xuanri and Ximen Xue are not not good enough, but because they are born as women, they are more delicate and less ruthless. Although Wu Xuewen is only a scholar, he is well versed in the art of war and tactics, and knows what is the truth of being a soldier who is not in charge of a soldier and a general who has ten thousand bones withered. In the past, when he was conducting art of war deduction in school, Hu Wei had seen the ruthlessness of Wu Xuewen.
I remember that during that teaching, the instructor came up with a question, saying: During a secret march behind enemy lines that was vital to the life and death of the whole army, the troops were inadvertently discovered by more than a dozen children of the enemy country who were eleven or twelve years old. Ask what you would do if you were a general.
Some classmates said that those children are still ignorant, and letting them go will not affect the overall situation.
Some classmates said that they were likely to report to the enemy, thus causing danger to the whole army, and that they should be arrested.
Some of the more ruthless classmates said that these children were enemies anyway, and they should be killed in order to avoid future troubles.
And Wu Xuewen's answer is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, if you just kill the dozen or so children, their families are likely to be suspicious because of the disappearance of the children, so as to also the whereabouts of the ** troops. The only way is to find the child's village and kill all the villagers. If there are other neighboring villages near this village, then they should also be killed, and the chickens and dogs will not be left.
Wu Xuewen's answer scared half of the students stupidly on the spot, they never thought that this usually bookish and angry person could make such a ruthless decision. And when he said this, he kept smiling at the corners of his mouth.
That time, Wu Xuewen got the highest score in the audience, although many people did not agree with Wu Xuewen's approach, but in the situation that was related to the fate of the whole army and the crisis of a country, even if he couldn't bear it, he had to wave the steel knife in his hand. Because this is war, the essence of war is to do everything to the extreme, only for the end, and to do whatever it takes. If you don't let people go to hell, you have to go to hell.
A few days later, the iron-headed ship arrived in Zhongping Town, which was the last town before reaching Baoning, Hu Wei was discussing military issues with Wu Xuewen, and suddenly felt that the ship had stopped, and couldn't help but feel a little strange. He had already explained before, as fast as possible, to reach Baoning City. If you don't have to, don't stop the boat, is something wrong?
As soon as Hu Wei's suspicions rose, Hou San had already run in and reported to Hu Wei: "Young master, this boat can't go." ”
Hu Wei's eyes were cold, and he asked, "What happened?" ”
Hou San said: "It's not clear what the matter is. I only know that many boats in front have turned back, some people say that they are robbers who robbed the boats, some people say that there are water ghosts or something, and some people say that the Three Kingdoms Alliance has blocked the river. In short, the people are panicking now, and the boatman will not go any further. ”
Hu Wei frowned and said, "There is such a thing?"
The water ghost said, Hu Wei will definitely not believe it. Robbers and the Triple Alliance, to the point where it is very likely. With people like them, it will be very troublesome to meet people on either side. For a while, Hu Wei didn't know what to do.
After thinking about it, Hu Wei asked, "How far is it to go to Baoning City?"
Hou Sandao: "If you are talking about the waterway, there is still one day." If you turn overland, you have to walk for three days to get to Baoning City because you have to go around a big mountain. ”
Hu Wei nodded, turned to Wu Xue and asked, "What do you think?"
Wu Xuewen thought for a while and said: "If the robbers are doing something wrong, then we will turn to the land, although it will be two days late, but it is not a bad way." If it is a three-nation alliance, then by land, we may not be able to enter Baoning City. ”
Wu Xuewen also did not mention the possibility of water ghosts, that play is too nonsense.
"Hmm" Hu Wei nodded and said, "According to the current situation, it is still more beneficial to us by land and water." Wait three. ”
"In. ”
"You go and talk to the boat boss, and say I want this ship, let him sell it to us. ”
Hou San hesitated: "Young master, will you drive the boat?"
"Don't worry, I'll drive a bumper boat in the future"
"Young master, young master, be careful, left, left, left, ah, right, right"
The river is still the same river, and the boat is still the same boat, but the person who drove the boat changed to Hu Wei, which scared everyone so much that their hearts were about to jump out. Even Zhu Daneng, who followed Hu Wei in the midst of the ten thousand armies and assassinated the commander of the enemy army, was pale at this time. Now no one dared to rest in the cabin, and they all ran to the deck. Always be ready to jump ship as soon as something goes wrong.
Fuchen bit his lip and looked at Hu Wei with a worried face: "Young Master, have you really driven a boat before?" If it weren't for the sturdiness, it would have fallen into wood chips.
Hu Wei gritted his teeth and said: "Didn't I say it, did you drive a bumper boat before, the Mara Gobi is here again, be careful, stand up." ”
"Wow. "A wave came up, knocked the boat out, a huge wave, wet all the women's clothes, and looked up, it was * light everywhere, * light everywhere * light.
But now no one cares about those, no life, no matter how beautiful things are, they are still stinky skins. Fuchen relied on the machine to hug Hu Wei tightly, so he didn't turn into the water. Wiping the water on his little face, he asked in horror: "What kind of boat is that bumper boat, and is it driven like this?"
At this time, the boat turned a bend and entered a slightly calmer section of the river, and Hu Wei also breathed a sigh of relief. The ship was still shaking, but it felt much safer than before.
Hu Wei was also covered in water, but his mood was extremely excited. It's been a long time since I've played like this, and this thrill really makes his blood boil. Fate is really in your own hands, and it's cooler. If this boat had been driven like this by someone else, he would have scolded his mother a long time ago.
Hu Wei laughed and said: "Of course, driving a bumper boat is more enjoyable than this." All rest assured, young master, I am a master of bumper boats, this little wave, I have never taken it to heart. ”
Ximen Xue asked weakly: "Young master, the bumper boat you are talking about should not be specifically for collisions with other ships?" ”
"Ugh. Hu Wei was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's still my eldest wife who is smart, and she can even guess this." I tell you, the bumper boat not only collides with other ships, but also sometimes with piers and big rocks. Otherwise, how can it be called a bumper boat. ”
It's good that Hu Wei doesn't explain, this explanation, the faces of a boatload of people are bitter. I knew that Hu Wei had driven such a bumper boat, and he didn't dare to come up if he killed them. Well, I'm really on a thief ship.
No.
It's better to get on the thief ship, at least you can resist. got on Hu Wei's boat, and he couldn't even resist.
"Master, can we get off the boat?"
"Boss, there's business again. It's still a big guy this time, and it's definitely a lot to gain. On the water about a kilometer away from Hu Wei's boat, a guy who didn't look like a good person pointed to Hu Wei's boat that was getting closer and closer, and excitedly said to a big man wearing a one-eyed water.
The big man smiled and said very imposingly: "Damn, I've been too ruthless in the past few days, and those boats have run out." After waiting for a day, someone who is not afraid of death came. Sue the brothers, all go into the water, get it, and go back to eat meat in large pieces. ”
"Yes, Boss. ”
Under the order of the robber head, more than 100 robbers dressed in water jumped into the water one by one, like dumplings in the pot.
These hundred or so robbers are the ones who created the panic on the river. They chose this relatively calm section of the river, relying on their good water, diving into the water to destroy the bottom of the boat before the boat came, so that the boat would stop, and then carry out robbery. They have been here for less than half a month, and they have already succeeded more than ten times.
Hu Wei drove the iron-headed boat like a bumper boat, and he didn't know that he had become a fat sheep in the eyes of the robbers. Because the river was calm and the boat was moving relatively slowly, he felt that it was not enjoyable, so he frantically let Hou San raise the sails to the maximum.
Before Hou San became a soldier, he couldn't even ride a horse, and he didn't understand a boat. Hu Wei asked him to open the sail, he opened the tent, and the guy directly opened the sail to the maximum.
At this time, a strong wind blew on the river, and the sail that had been raised bulged suddenly. The ship borrowed the power of the wind to speed up violently, like the galloping of thousands of horses, and went upriver with the momentum of an arrow from the string.
The robbers who were planning to hijack the ship were planning in the river, and the boat suddenly accelerated, and his face turned green.
"Boss, this is not right, why did the boat not slow down but accelerated, and shook like noodles. Oh no, it's coming at us. ”
"Damn, call a fart, don't withdraw quickly. ”
"Boss, there's no hurry"
"Brothers, run for your life"
Looking at Baoning City that appeared in sight from a distance, Zhu Daneng, Xuanri and his party finally let out a long breath. They all swore secretly in their hearts that they would never take another boat when they were killed. It's terrible, I didn't die upside down, I was almost scared to death.
Only Hu Wei looked at Bao Ning City, muttering something to himself. If you amplify his voice, you'll hear him say, "Didn't you say there were robbers and water ghosts?"
Robbers who have been run over by an iron-headed ship: ¥%※%¥#......
