The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 686 Giant Wild Boar
At the beginning of the last century, the development of the aviation industry was still in its infancy, and people were keen on flying airplanes and carrying out various adventure activities.

Flying around the world refers to a record-breaking adventure flight, that is, a flight from the starting point to one direction, circling the earth once, and then returning to the starting point.It can be carried out in so-called stages by stopping at various places, or it can be completed without stopping and continuing without landing.Therefore, it has strict technical index assessment, and it needs to be recognized by the International Aviation Association.

According to the regulations of the International Aviation Association, the distance traveled around the world must exceed the length of the Tropic of Cancer or the Tropic of Capricorn (36787.6 kilometers).

1938年7月15日-霍华德·休斯创造了环球 3天19小时17分钟的飞行新纪录。

When he was in Wuhan, Gao Jiu made a bet with Carter Rogers that Howard Hughes was about to create a new round-the-world flying record in order to persuade Carter Rogers’ Voltey Company to buy the b24 Liberator bomber he designed. The specific time for creating the record and the specific results of the record are listed.

Carter Rogers told Howard about this incident, and it turned out that Gao Jiu's prediction was completely correct.

Howard has always been very curious about this matter, and had invited Gao Jiu before, asking him to come to the United States as a guest.

So when he learned that Gao Jiu had come to New York, he arranged to meet Gao Jiu through Carter Royce.

Not only Howard, but even Carter Rogers found the matter of setting a record for flying around the world very miraculous. When Howard asked Gao Jiu this question, he also looked at Gao Jiu curiously.

Gao Jiu said: "Actually, I analyzed this matter. I am also very interested in the matter of flying around the world. Therefore, I have studied the adventurers who participated in the flight around the world. Mr. Howard, you are a well-known figure in the American country. Nature has a deep understanding of you.

Before breaking the record this time, you have participated in two round-the-world flights, but neither of them broke the previous flight record.You are a proud man, so I think you will fly around the world again this time.

Flying around the world has certain experience and skills. You are a smart and good at summarizing people. Therefore, I believe you will be able to find the best flight time and flight route. The aircraft you are driving is improved, so I think this time we will be able to set a new record.

As for the specific achievement of creating a record, that is just my guess. I think that if you choose the best route, a suitable flight altitude, and clever use of favorable conditions such as atmospheric circulation, you should be able to complete the flight around the world in 100 hours.

It's just that I didn't expect that you are better than I imagined, and you have created a new world record of 91 hours, which is really admirable. "

Gao Jiu's remarks not only analyzed technically, but also subtly praised Howard, which not only sounded very credible, but also made Howard very proud.

He was immediately full of affection for Gao Jiu, and felt like a rare confidant.You must know that Howard's eyes are above the top, even in the entire United States, few people give him such a feeling.

Howard smiled happily: "Mr. Gao, you are not only an amazing legend, but also a very interesting person. It is my honor to meet a friend like you."

Gao Jiu, Howard, Carter Rogers and others chatted cordially, and the atmosphere was very relaxed and happy.They talked about war, flying, science and technology, culture and art.

Howard and others were surprised to find that Gao Jiu's knowledge was so profound that no matter what aspect he talked about, he showed an expert level.Moreover, he is very humble, and it is a pleasure to communicate with him.

When it comes to movies, Gao Jiu properly analyzed Howard's famous comedy film "Two Arabian Knights" and the war film "Hell's Angels", and gave a pertinent evaluation.

During the conversation, Gao Jiu certainly would not ignore Mirana's feelings.He also analyzed and commented on several films starred by this famous Hollywood movie star, fully affirming Mirana's acting skills.

Mirana was very happy, and was also full of affection for this handsome young man from the East.

Howard and the others spent a whole day on the yacht, and after having dinner together, they reluctantly bid farewell to Gao Jiu and the others.

Before leaving, Howard invited Gao Jiu to visit his manor again, and made an appointment to go fishing for tuna at sea in a few days.

Gao Jiu also liked this bold American, and immediately accepted his invitation.

After Gao Jiu and Xiao Yatong left, Mirana said with some fascination: "It's really unexpected that in the far east, China, which is said to be very backward, there is an outstanding man like you."

Mirana is very talkative, and Howard, who is flattering, is very happy.

Howard said: "Gao Jiu is an amazing Chinese. I have only seen a character like him in my life. He is so good, but he doesn't give people pressure. From this point of view, I admire him very much."

Speaking of this, Howard looked at Mirana and said with a smile: "They always say that I am a playboy, but do you know that the beautiful Miss Xiao just now is just one of Mr. Gao's confidante.

Carter Rogers told me that Gao Jiu still has several confidante friends who are as good as that Miss Xiao in China, and you are the only one around me now, can it be said that I am a person who is dedicated to love? "

Mirana was amused by Howard and giggled, she said: "Mr. Gao looks like a decent person, but you are also like a playboy."

In the days that followed, Gao Jiu accepted Howard's invitation many times. They went to taste the best wine, go fishing, mountaineering, skiing, and golf together.

Howard is an adventurer, and he hits it off with Gao Jiushi.He didn't think the projects arranged these days were thrilling enough, so he invited Gao Jiu to hunt wild boars in Tennessee.

Gao Jiu accepted Howard's invitation and took Howard's private plane with Xiao Yatong to Howard's manor in Tennessee.

This morning, Gao Jiu, Xiao Yatong, Howard, and Mirana wore hunting clothes, rode tall horses, and carried shotguns. Surrounded by a dozen bodyguards and dozens of hounds, they entered the primeval forest of Tennessee. .

Howard had beaten wild boars many times before, and while walking, he introduced the situation of wild boars here to Gao Jiu.

The wild boar here has a strong body, stubby limbs, a long head, small and erect ears, 4 toes on each foot, a short tail, and well-developed canine teeth.Wild boars are ferocious and aggressive. Adult male wild boars dare to confront leopards, hyenas and other ferocious carnivores...

Howard introduced it in detail, and it seems that he has carefully studied wild boars.As a successful person, meticulous observation of affairs and seriousness in doing things are necessary qualities.It is no accident that he was able to achieve great success in the United States.

Howard said ostentatiously: "The wild boar here is very big. Last year I shot a wild boar weighing 340kg. In this generation, no one has surpassed my record." After coming to the edge of the forest, on a hillside A temporary camp was set up on the ground, where Lin Yanni and Mirana stayed, and Howard, Gao Jiu and others continued to walk into the forest.

After everyone entered the forest, they searched carefully.After more than an hour, no trace of wild boar was found.

Gao Jiu retrieved information about wild boars. He pointed to a hillside in front of him and said, "Let's go over there. It's early spring and the temperature is low. Wild boars like sunny sides. Let's go there and have a look."

Howard knew that Gao Jiu was very knowledgeable, and he also wanted to verify whether what Gao Jiu said was reasonable, so he walked towards the hillside ahead.

Sure enough, before they crossed the hillside, the hounds in front had already barked.

Gao Jiu and Howard rushed over with their double-barreled shotguns. As soon as they went up the hill, they saw several hounds biting a wild boar weighing more than 100 kilograms.

Under the siege of the hunting dogs, the wild boar rushed from left to right, but couldn't get rid of the entanglement of the hunting dogs.

Howard was worried that the hound would be injured, so he shot the wild boar.

His marksmanship was very accurate, and he hit the wild boar in the cheek with one shot. The bullet passed through the wild boar's brain, and the wild boar fell to the ground and twitched a few times, then stopped moving.

Gao Jiu praised: "Good marksmanship."

Howard said with some pride: "It's nothing, this wild boar is too small.That time, I hit the giant wild boar at a distance of 35 meters, and hit the wild boar in the eye with one shot. "

Wild boars usually live in groups, and the hounds kept finding wild boars. Howard and Gao Jiu shot another wild boar, the largest one weighed about [-] kilograms.

Howard felt that it was not enough, so he continued to search.

Soon the hounds found their target again, and they rushed towards the bushes ahead.Howard was very excited and strode forward.

Suddenly, there were several screams of hounds in the jungle, and then a hound flew out of the bushes.The other hounds also showed fear and barked wildly, but they dared not go forward.

Howard knew that this must be a large wild boar, and he approached with a gun.

Suddenly, the bushes in front were parted, and a huge wild boar head was exposed, with thick tusks more than 20 centimeters long.

At this time, the wild boar was about 20 meters away from Howard. This distance seemed to be far away, but it contained great danger.

Male wild boars often fight with female wild boars in order to compete for territory. The most common tactic they adopt is to start running when they are 20 meters away from each other, and then gradually accelerate to increase the power of the final sprint.

The wild boar saw Howard in front of him, and rushed towards him directly.

The two hounds in front of Howard did not dare to block its attack, and dodged to the sides.As a result, Howard was completely exposed in front of the wild boar.

Gao Jiu was worried that Howard would be injured, so he shouted: "Be careful." Then he raised his shotgun and aimed at the wild boar.

When Howard saw the wild boar rushing over, he was a little flustered. He shot at the wild boar. Unfortunately, he was a little too flustered, and the shot hit the wild boar in the shoulder.

Wild boars like to roll in the mud. The oil secreted by its hair sticks to the mud on its body, and then dries the mud on its body in the sun to form a thick protective layer.Not only that, wild boars often rub their bodies on hard stones or wood to enhance the hardness of the protective layer.

Howard's shot only made the wild boar a little painful, but it didn't stop the wild boar from advancing, but enraged it even more.

The wild boar ran towards Howard. Howard was in a hurry, threw away his gun, and hurriedly dodged.

Gao Jiu also shot at the wild boar, but Howard stood in front of him, and his bullets missed the wild boar's vitals.

The situation on the ground in the forest was very complicated. Howard accidentally tripped and fell to the ground while dodging.

With its sharp fangs, the wild boar picked up Howard.

Said it was too late, Gao Jiu rushed over.Just when the boar's fangs were about to reach Howard's body, Gao Jiu kicked the boar's neck.

This kick almost exhausted Gao Jiu's full strength, and the force was so violent that the huge wild boar was kicked two meters away and fell to the ground.

Gao Jiu hurried two steps and came to the wild boar. Just when the wild boar was struggling to stand up, Gao Jiu kicked hard again, and this kick hit the wild boar's abdomen.

Although the wild boar was covered with a thick protective layer, the strength of this kick was transmitted into its body through its hard skin, and the huge shock severely damaged the wild boar's internal organs.

The wild boar fell to the ground again. This time, it struggled a few times and couldn't stand up.

At this time, Howard had already stood up, raised his gun and fired two shots in a row, hitting the wild boar on the head, killing the wild boar.

Howard was still in shock, and said to Gao Jiu: "Mr. Gao, this time is thanks to you. Thank you."

This wild boar is really too big. The servants who followed Howard and others came forward to measure the weight of the wild boar. The weight of this wild boar actually reached 402kg.

Howard was very excited. The weight of this wild boar had broken the record of the wild boar he beat last time.However, he was horrified. He really couldn't have imagined that such a huge wild boar was so powerful during its crazy impact. Gao Jiu was able to kick it away with one kick, and even seriously injured the wild boar, making it unable to stand up. This is simply not human.

Howard and the others felt happy, so they walked out of the mountain.

Xiao Yatong and Mirana came up to meet them, and when they saw the huge wild boar carried by the servants, they both exclaimed.

On the way back, Howard talked about his thrilling experience today, and was full of admiration for Gao Jiu's divine power.

Mirana felt more and more that the Chinese man in front of her was full of mystery, and there was an expression of admiration in her eyes.
