Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 1254
[Chapter 899]
The heavy rain fell down, looking up at the sky, it was a dense black spot, and there was no white reflection of the water at all. When it hit the water, bubbles appeared and disappeared one after another.
There was a mist of water on the deck. In addition to thunder and lightning, there was also a thud when the raindrops hit the deck, and the thick part of the deck was slapped.
The sails on the boat had already fallen, and they dared not continue to hoist it, and the windows were closed one after another. Even so, there were still a lot of rainwater that gathered in the low and low spots as the boat moved forward.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan put on raincoats and scanned the river with binoculars to see what other boats would do.
The boats on the river came to the shore one after another, and then they didn’t know where they got the drills, they nailed them into the soil on the shore, tied ropes, and fixed the boats, and they set up a shed on the shore. , hide inside.
“It’s true, none of the boats are broken, all the boats have found their positions.” Zhang Xiaobao watched for a while and found that there was no danger on the river, and said.
“People are not stupid, you know it’s going to rain, people know it too, and the locals live here, how can they put themselves in a dangerous situation, look, there are two big boats in front of them, ready to organize rescues ”
When Wang Juan was talking, the two boats coming upstream were stuck together, and they made a collision sound, which was clear in the heavy rain, and quickly arranged for the people on board to prepare for rescue.
Normally, the current situation cannot be rescued, and everyone is protecting themselves. Even if the boat capsizes, they can only stare and hope that people will survive.
That’s because the rescue equipment is different.
The boats on my side are rubber dinghies and inflatable life jackets. When they fall into the river, there is no need to worry that they will sink. The people in charge of the rescue are proficient in water and can save the lives of those who fall into the water to a large extent.
Zhang Xiaobao was also anxious, but after looking at the situation there again, he said, “No need for rescue. They collided on purpose. Look at what their two boats are doing.”
Wang Juan shook the water on the telescope and looked again.
Understood, the two ships were colliding between them, and a force-reducing thing was placed on the side of the ship, and I didn’t know what was in the sack. The sound was loud, but the two ships were not damaged.
Now they are throwing ropes between each other. You throw them on my boat, and I throw them on your side. There are also people who use springboards and nail them on the decks on both sides.
“This is… a method for pirates to seize the ship. They want to combine the two ships to fight the wind and rain together? It is for… I understand. Afraid of the rain, the water rushing down upstream will become larger, forcing them to change the direction of the ship. , that is the most dangerous, now that a boat is on board,
the ability to bear it is strong, and it is smart.”
Wang Juan looked at the arrangement of the boat and praised, people, they are all forced out.
In fact, you can know in advance that it is raining, and then avoid it first, such as finding a stable place to stop and break down.
But people couldn’t determine when the rain fell. In order to save time, they forced forward. When making this choice, it was estimated that they had already discussed with other ships.
By then the two ships will be next to each other, not collided.
Don’t be afraid to nail a few holes on the deck, you can smear it with glue and plug it with something, and wait for the wind and rain to pass.
Take it down, you can move on, save an hour of time, you can deliver things to the place an hour earlier, save two hours is two hours, if the wind blows the clouds away, it will be better, always. Better than waiting.
“Look, people are not stupid. Your auxiliary tools are not easy to sell. When you want to come to the fog, others will also come up with a solution.”
“Who said that? The smarter people will choose more convenient tools. , if you don’t believe me, let’s make a bet to see if they will buy it then?”
Zhang Xiaobao said unconvinced.
The boats on the river basically stopped, not because of the rain, but because they were afraid of hitting other boats.
Only steam-engine ships are still moving forward. They don’t care whether it rains or not. They don’t need to find a tracker when they are upstream.
This is especially true for Zhang Xiaobao’s team. The difference is that there are sails on the boat, which are used to reduce the speed. At this time, they landed, and then the machine sounded, speeding up the relatively narrow place.
Seeing that there was nothing on the river, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan turned around and returned to the cabin, resting on the reclining chair. Sleeping is the most comfortable time now.
Xiao Bei and the others just took a bath, got into the bed and fell asleep. They were all relaxed and could soon fall asleep.
“I don’t know if it’s raining heavily on the battlefield. I can’t tell how much area the rain clouds cover. It’s really uncomfortable without the satellite cloud image.”
Zhang Xiaobao pulled a blanket over himself, and shook it back and forth lightly. Worry of people on the battlefield.
Wang Juan, who was next to him, had an indifferent expression. Hearing Zhang Xiaobao’s words, he said, “The heavier the rain, the better, for a few days in a row, we will get a large number of horses. After the ground is muddy, the horses will not be able to run. , our people sniped at a few people, and then screamed to surrender or not kill them, and they surrendered.”
Zhang Xiaobao agreed: “Really, Arabian horses have always been easy to use, we can’t slow down the speed of domestic development for the sake of war, so we have to do it. We just turned some of the military horses into commercial horses. When the domestic economy develops, we can make more off-road vehicles instead of horses.”
“What kind of off-road vehicles? Four-wheel drive?” Wang Juan asked.
“Isn’t a three-wheeled tractor not enough? A very effective model. The diesel engine is powerful, the wheel is larger, and the chassis is high. Except for the places where the body can’t pass, it is generally easier to use than a horse.”
Zhang Xiaobao imagined the tractor The scene when the army is dispatched, if it is on the plain, the power will be great, and it is more convenient to chase the enemy when it rains. As long as it is not too muddy, the tractor can easily rush past.
The two were talking boredly, when there was a knock on the door outside, and then a person came in and said to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan: “The Meteor Squadron just sent a telegram, they have arrived in our country and are speeding up their march, it is estimated that two After a day and a half, I arrived at the injured village and asked if there were any arrangements.”
Zhang Xiaobao sat up straight with a happy look on his face, thought about it, and said, “There is no arrangement for them, let them act cheaply, but a telegram has to be sent, and the Tang official newspaper will report this in three days, don’t use them and The real names of their family members mean things are gone.” The visitor led the
way out, Zhang Xiaobao let out a sigh of relief, lay back again, turned his head to look at Wang Juan and said, “Just come back, give our women an explanation, Let them kill the people who bullied them with their own hands, and live a good life in the future.”
“You don’t worry that after they take revenge, they will let go of the last thought in their hearts and die?” Wang Juan followed.
“It’s really possible, come and send electricity to tell them that after seeing the two women in the village, tell them to help them catch them back, the court will spend a lot of money, let them cherish it and give more to Tang Doing things, if they die, Datang will not be worth it.
If they still want to die, tell them that their lives cannot be sacrificed in vain, join the army, get training, be a field medical soldier, and it will end when they die. ”
Zhang Xiaobao shouted to the door, and he stopped lying down. He sat up to make tea and eat melon seeds. This is also a good pastime on rainy days.
Wang Juan got up and drank together.
After a while, he ate the melon seeds that Zhang Xiaobao handed over and said, “It’s really hard work. I’m worried that people in the village will look down on them and their men will not want them.”
“Dare, why not? When men are needed, men are there. Where? The ones who really should commit suicide are those old men in their village, don’t worry, send the heads and the living people, and their men will probably be proud of it at that time. The most important thing is that before He was thinking of suppressing the prefect who was taken away.
A person with this kind of mind is in charge of the place, and he must hope that the people will be honest and obedient and not cause him trouble, thus making the people cowardly. Nest.”
Zhang Xiaobao analyzed and said, what he disliked most was the officials who were escorted to the capital like the governor, who were afraid of causing trouble and bullied the people under his rule.
Wang Juan also hated that he had turned the people into sheep, so what could he do?
She said to Zhang Xiaobao: “Thanks to something happening, he was exposed, otherwise it will take a long time, and the local people will lose their blood one by one, and they will not be able to use it in the future.
There should be democratic elections, the people themselves vote, and the elected people are naturally responsible for the people who voted for others. The benefits of democracy are reflected, and we should learn from the United States.”
“What should we learn from others? We also had democracy, before The emperors, they were regarded as the leaders of the big tribe only by the support of the people. Later, didn’t they change little by little?
Why is American democracy? Because the United States does not have its own national soul, and the spirit needs years to settle. In a country with a history of a hundred years, it is impossible to learn the spirit of a nation like ours.
They were all colonized in various places, and some were sold into slaves. Okay?”
Zhang Xiaobao likes to destroy people’s prestige, UU reading www.

Wang Juan didn’t make a sound, and the room was quiet for a while, only the movement of Zhang Xiaobao drinking tea and the sound of peeling melon seeds for Wang Juan.
The heavy rain was still falling, with no sign of getting smaller. The boat swayed with the undulations of the water, making people sleepy.
When Zhang Xiaobao drank the tea to the point of tasteless, Wang Juan finally spoke.
“Xiaobao, what you just said really makes sense. Compared with countries with many years of history, the United States does have one less national spirit in its soul, but their skills are good, they use force to protect their citizens, and strive to cultivate their own national spirit. It is estimated that his own national spirit will be almost the same in a few hundred years.”
“Yes, but they are very bad. They can’t see that others have this kind of thing, so he hopes that all countries are as democratic as them, especially small ones. They have been bullied one by one, and in the Arab region they are the least hopeful of unity, so they always use various means to attack and destroy the spirit of Islam.”
Zhang Xiaobao said I’m not angry, I don’t care.
