Chapter 532 The Big Bully The Small(1/2)
Volume 5: Chapter 532: Big bullying
The river wind roared, and the water was covered with clouds. It was just sunny, and a storm was brewing at this moment.
On the Jiuzhou River, a tower boat ran in front of him like a rabbit, and three warships were biting tightly like wolves behind him.
The merchant ship running in front was the Piaoxiang under the famous Baihua Song and Dance Troupe on the Tianfeng Continent. At this time, the Baihua Group belonged to the group leader Yaxin to Kabuki, to the maid and old maid, and all were on the boat. They also had two important guests on this ship, Hu You, the Immortal Bird and Avril, the young queen of the Mandala Empire.
The warship that was biting behind them was Qin Liang, the other pair of Qin Ming, who was as famous as Hu You. After Qin Liang was released, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was something wrong with the ship, so he mobilized three warships, led 500 troops, and chased with all his strength.
Tianfeng Continent has a long history. As time goes by, people gradually classified ships of different uses to make them better meet people's needs.
Among all types, the most comfortable one is the building boat. This kind of boat is as tall as a city tower, which can accommodate hundreds of people. The boat is stable and safe, and it is not afraid of wind and waves. It also has dozens of warehouses, which are magnificent and most popular with officials and powerful people.
However, as the saying goes, there are advantages and disadvantages. This kind of ship is huge in size, inconvenient to control, and has a slow and slowness. Among the many types of ships, it is a slow one. The Piaoxiang Huo of Baihuatuan is this kind of tower ship.
Warships are different. They are much larger than those of the building ship, and the deck is only one floor. In terms of comfort, they are far from the building ship, but because of it, they move very flexibly. In addition, they use wind power and the paddles extended from the "drag holes" on both sides of the hull as power. Whether it is going along the water or going against the water, they can reach a very high degree. In terms of degree, they can be regarded as the strongest among the ships.
At this time, Qin Liang took three such warships and tried his best to chase the Piaoxiang.
"Captain Zhou, the official army is getting closer." Zhu Xian saw the three warships getting closer, and his nervous expression became heavier and heavier when he saw that the three warships were getting closer.
The mast sail of the ship has risen to three pieces, which is the highest level that the building can reach, but the distance between the two sides is still being brought closer.
"Zhou Hu, what do you think?" Hu You looked at Zhou Hu calmly.
"Young marshal, why not take the boat first, I will deal with it here." Yaxin said resolutely.
"No." Hu You shook his head: "If I had already got off the boat before passing the customs, then you wouldn't have any problems. Now Qin Liang already knows that I'm on the boat, and he chases me and can't find me, so he will never let you go."
"Young Marshal, I'm not afraid. It's just a death." Yaxin cried. A little tears looked so sad.
"You need to say more. I will not do it if I exchange a boat of people for my own safety." Hu You said affirmatively.
Zhou Hu looked at Hu You with admiration and said, "I have heard that the young marshal is righteous for a long time. When I saw him today, it turns out that way.
Young Marshal, Sister Yaxin, please don’t worry. Zhou Hu was eleven years old and made a living on a boat. It has been thirty years now, so it is not that easy for Qin Liang'er to catch us."
The first person has his own fields of expertise. Zhouhu's field is in the water. This statement is very effective and confident.
Hu You nodded and said, "Zhou Hu, this time I will hand over my life to your hands. I have no objection to what you want to do. Let it go and do it well. I will be responsible for all the consequences!"
Zhou Hu's face showed a divine light and said sincerely: "Thank you for your trust, I will go and direct myself now. Unless I die, Qin Liang would not want to touch a piece of wood chips at Piaoxiang!"
"I'll go with you."
On the deck, a group of crew members were busy. When they saw Zhou Hu coming out, a crew member with a head-like appearance came.
"Captain, everything is arranged according to your instructions." When the crew reported, they looked at Hu You. Although they didn't know what happened to Yu Yi, they knew that the three warships would chase after him, and no more or less had something to do with Hu You.
Zhou Hu did not mean to introduce Hu You, so he hummed and asked, "Have the fireproof materials been prepared? This is a fatal matter and must not be careless."
"Don't worry, the captain has already done it, but the raw cowhide is not enough, so I can only defend against the stern of the boat."
"It is impossible to wear all the hair in such a big boat. Just have it at the stern. If you go and do anything, the horse will repay me."
"Yes!" the crew responded and quickly left.
After he walked away, Zhou Hu said to Hu You: "His name is Niu Er. He is very clever, but he doesn't keep the door. I think it's better not to announce your business when you are on the boat for the time being."
Hu You nodded and said, "I said it, everything depends on your arrangement."
"Okay, let's all go to the stern of the boat." Zhou Hu said as he went to the stern of the boat first. It seemed that he had already entered the role.
Hu You smiled and followed Zhou Hu. He liked people like Zhou Hu, who were not artificial.
At this time, the three warships had already chased them fifty meters away. From this side, it was clear that they had set up a pitcher. It seemed that they were going to attack them with stones.
Hu You have fought a lot of wars in recent years, but he really has no experience in this water battle. He is not the kind of person who pretends to understand. He just stood quietly and watched Zhou Hu command slowly.
"Boom boom boom." The warship finally couldn't help but start attacking. Dozens of huge rocks crossed the air and landed on the river, causing waves of water. Many of the crew's clothes were all exposed by the water.
"Your sister, prepare black smoke for me. I dare to hit me, so I will let them have a good taste." Nanhu slammed the jacket that he pulled off and slammed heavily on the deck.
Two strange things were pushed out, and they were thrust out of the bellows, but after modification, they were much larger. Hu You could see clearly that many crew members were holding dried chili, dried horse shit, hot charcoal, tinea oil and other things that were not even a piece.
"This Zhou Hu is quite smart." Hu You nodded in his heart. With his intelligence, he knew what Zhou Hu wanted to do with just one look. It was useless before, because the distance was still far and could not play a big role. Now it is just right to use it.
"Huahuahua." Those dried chili, dried horse shit, charcoal, and tinea oil were poured into several basins. Before they ignited the fire, Hu You found a windy thing. When these things were burned, they didn't taste very good.
"ignition."
"Boom boom."
The dried peppers, dried horse shit, charcoal and other things that were poured with tinder oil burned when they encountered fire. Two crew members holding large blankets had already been waiting. After about three seconds, they covered the blankets with fire at the same time.
Good guy, the rolling black smoke came out instantly, and two weird bellows also started working. A large amount of black smoke was blown in by the bellows and sprayed to the stern of the boat.
The whole process is orderly, everyone has division of labor, and everyone knows what they should do. It is obvious that they have trained them on their own.
"Talent." Hu You nodded in his heart and smiled bitterly: This smell is really bad.
"Young Marshal, it would be better to cover his mouth and nose with this." Zhou Hu ran to Hu You with excitement. His black smoke could show it in front of Hu You for the first time when he faced the enemy. How could he be unhappy?
"Thank you." Hu You took the towel wet with water and covered it in front of his mouth and nose, and felt much better.
The tower ship sprayed a large amount of black smoke onto the three warships like a stinky fart. Zhou Hu didn't know what else to add to the black smoke, but the black smoke actually gathered but never dispersed, wrapping the three warships.
The soldiers of the three warships obviously did not expect the big ship to create such things. They choked and burst into tears. They did not have the strength to row the boat, and the time suddenly dropped.
"Success! Hahaha..." Zhou Hu jumped three feet high with joy. The crew members were just excited.
A stone hit the stern of the boat, and the wood chips flew out immediately.
Zhou Hu suddenly woke up from his excitement and shouted: "Drop the wooden barrel, hit them, hit them."
A group of crew members got busy again, throwing the empty wooden barrels into the water, hoping to prevent the three warships from approaching.
Hu You's brows were tightly frowned into the word "chuan". He knew very well that those wooden barrels would not play much role, and the black smoke could only slow down their magnitude, which would not cause any harm to the three warships. The magnitude of the big ship was so fast that they would not take long before they would chase them.
Although everything was left to Zhou Hu for command, it was impossible to make Hu You do nothing and think about nothing. He was spinning his brain high, hoping to find a way.
Although Hu You didn't have much experience in water war, he had watched the movies and TV series of water wars. At this time, he was recalling them one by one.
Suddenly, a picture appeared in Hu You's mind. It was a picture in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. He remembered that a man named Deng Shichang drove a ship to sank the Japanese warship.
At that time, Deng Shichang's ship had no shells and no power to return water, which was similar to their Piaoxiang.
"Maybe you can try it." Hu You murmured for a few words, pulling Zhou Hu aside.
"Zhou Hu, you are an old boatman, I'll ask you something." Hu You said seriously.
Zhou Hu replied: "Young Marshal, if you have any questions, just ask me. As long as I know, I will tell you."
"Well, that's right, I want to know what the consequences would be if our Piaoxiang Crown collided with three other warships."
"Crash the boat?" Zhou Hu's face twitched. There is a certain taboo for those who are sailing. If you bump into the boat or hit the reef, it is generally not allowed.
"Yes, the ship hit." Hu You repeated it again. He also knew that there were taboos in this regard, but now it is not normal, and it belongs to the battlefield. There is no scruples on the battlefield. As long as you can kill the enemy, you can do anything.
Zhou Hu said: "Our building ship, both the skeleton and materials, are quite good. Unfortunately, the bow of the ship is not equipped with a corner and a guard plate. If it is to collide like this, I can't tell whether it will damage itself."
Hu You asked: "How much chance of self-damage is, and how serious will it be if you live?"
"20%, after all, our ship is large. If something goes wrong, the most terrible thing is of course the water will come in."
"Can you block it?"
"It depends on how big the hole is. It's OK, it's not big."
"Well, you go and do it first, I'll think about it. By the way, if you really want to hit the boat, are there any way for them to get rid of three?"
"It's easy, there are many waterways along the way, just bringing them in, so they can leave nowhere to run."
"very good."
After Zhou Hu left, Hu You continued to consider the issue of crashing the ship. Although there was only 20% chance that the ship would sink, Hu You still had to consider the consequences. You should know that hundreds of people in the Hundred Flower Group were innocent. If this really sunk, many people would die in vain. Although the war was cruel, Hu You could not be so ruthless.
"Young Marshal, Young Marshal, I have a way." Zhou Hu, who had just walked away, ran back.
"What's the solution? Tell me quickly."
"Aren't we not having the angle of impact? We can do it. As long as we can make the angle of impact, with the hardness of our big ship, I can guarantee that there will be no problem."
Hu You didn't know much about this and asked hurriedly: "Can you do it in such a short time? Besides, there is no material."
Zhou Hu laughed and said, "If you can't make iron, just make wooden ones. I have thought about it. There are many tables and chairs on the boat. As long as we fix the tables and chairs in places where it is possible to be damaged, we can play a protective role!"
"In the cowhide," Hu You clapped his hands and said, "The impact force dispersion theorem, as long as the pressure required per unit area is dispersed, it will not damage the hull. A good idea, why didn't I think of it?"
Zhou Hu was stunned by Hu You and said in confusion: "What impact force dispersion theorem?"
Hu You waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about his theorem or not, let's do it like that. You ordered people to arrange it and protect all the places that might be hit. We will find a way to sank those annoying guys."
"Okay, I'll go in person."
Qin Liang sat with a wet cloth on one of the warships behind him, covering his mouth and nose with a gray face.
He was considered a new star in the family. His status was still in Qin Mingzhi a few years ago. Unexpectedly, in these few years, Qin Ming suddenly became the first person in the younger generation. The elders of the family who were not optimistic about Qin Ming all changed their faces and supported Qin Ming. As long as Qin Ming needed them, they were all satisfied.
Qin Liang was very dissatisfied, but Qin Ming did a good job, so he had no choice. This time he was sent to Qin Ming to assist. He had already thought about it before leaving. This time he must do something to show everyone. Among the younger generation, not only Qin Ming, but also Qin Liang.
Originally, as Qin Liang's identity, he didn't have to send a place like Tangzhu to perform any recruitment tasks. Qin Liang took the initiative to come to Tangzhu, because according to his judgment, Hu You had a great chance to sneak from Tangzhu through the water road back to Langtian. As long as he could catch Hu You, he would be a great achievement regardless of life or death. If Qin Ming could not do it, he did it, wouldn't this be enough to show his face in front of the elder?
Facts have proved that Qin Liang's judgment was correct, and Hu You did go to this line of pond growth. Unfortunately, he was careless for a moment and let him get through it.
