The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

Chapter 329 Javelin practice

He would quickly read the letters his daughter-in-law wrote to him every few days while he was in the toilet.

HNA is so boring, they have to have fun on their own.

Dried sweet potatoes are so delicious to eat as snacks. After finishing my own, I miss what is in other people’s pockets.

I don’t know who came up with it, but I wrapped a long hemp rope around the javelin and practiced aiming at the fish that occasionally jumped out of the sea.

Bet with a pin, and bet with dried sweet potatoes.

A good sea fish doesn't taste good when caught whole, so it has to be done in such a bloody and cruel way.

On the deck, a group of sailors were watching. From time to time, the crowd would boo or praise.

"Hey, I almost got it, madman, can you be more careful! I already lost eight!"

"Okay! Fatty, you are so awesome, you are so accurate! We depend on you for our supper tonight!"

"Hehe, that's right. In terms of accuracy in our naval force, I am also ranked high! I want to take the lion's share of the dried sweet potatoes I win."

"General, you see, this kid is not humble at all! Let's find someone to treat him!"

"Uncle, uncle, would you like to show your skills too?"

"That's right, that's right, uncle, have we seen your kung fu? Why, you also made this javelin. It doesn't make sense. Are you used to it? Or are you afraid that we will win all your sweet potatoes? !”

"Uncle, come on, show this blind guy your craftsmanship!"

Hei Wa is lucky, he has amazing skills and accuracy!

If only his mother-in-law were here, it would be strange not to give these guys a good look!
"You brats, I won't compete with you in terms of brute force. Hum, I'll let our young general Qin Ke take action. Qin Ke, give these soldiers a good look!"

Qin Ke can't wait to do it, this is so fun.

He also asked with a smile: "Brothers, if you eat too much dried sweet potato, you will fart. Are there any other advantages?"

"Oh, kid, you're quite confident. General, just tell me what's going to happen!"

This group of soldiers couldn't bear to give up the prize money. Gao Huaiyu laughed and scolded: "If you can't even compete with half-grown children, I will kick you into the sea for the prize money!"

"Hahahahahaha."

"I think this lottery is good, Qin Ke, let me give your uncle some credit!"

"Uncle, look at it!"

Qin Ke shook his arm, walked to the deck, raised the javelin in his hand, and patrolled the sea with his eyes, without moving for a quarter of an hour.

Suddenly, he took a step back with his right leg, and the javelin in his hand flew out.

Along with the javelin and the long hemp rope, with sharp eyes, I have already seen the sea fish shot by the javelin.

"Wow, this kid is so strong. He actually penetrated such a big fish!"

"It's incredible, there's no one else who's so accurate!"

After Qin Ke confirmed his success, he quickly pulled back the javelin.

He picked up a ten-pound sea fish on the tip of his gun, and the fish's tail was still struggling.

This brat is so proud that he almost has his tail raised!
His accuracy was improved with each shot, and he looked at the No. 2 ship opposite him provocatively.

A group of soldiers gave him a thumbs up: "Cow!"

Admiration is admiration, as long as you are a man, you will not give up easily!
The fat guy who had a good shot just now was pushed out by this group of people.

Three shots were fired in succession, but they all missed. The soldiers were crying and Gao Huaiyu looked at them sideways.

My face hurt, so I took off my shirt and jumped into the sea.

I had to swim in the sea for a quarter of an hour before I could get on the boat.

It was already humiliating, being compared to a boy who didn't even have a hair on his head.

The iron-blooded commander Gao took advantage of the situation and resumed his daily training on the ship.

His mantra: If you don’t practice for one day, you will get itchy!

The ship merchants looked at these movements and thought to themselves: The escort fee was not wasted after all. At least these people are not just showmen. At the critical moment, we have to rely on them.

For the northern cavalry, the javelin was of little use.

However, under the condition that the southern navy did not have all its members equipped with firecrackers, javelins were considered to be more lethal weapons than bows and arrows.

Thirty thousand sailors are now equipped with one javelin. General Gao requires everyone to practice throwing javelins for an hour every day.

At dawn in the southwest Indian Ocean, last night's moon has not completely disappeared, and the vast expanse of waves is submerged in the boundless silence.

"Attention, attention, there is a tide of whales ahead!"

There is such a description in "Erya Wings":
"A whale is a big fish in the sea. It has a large horizontal sea to swallow a boat, and its cave is on the bottom of the sea. When it comes out of its cave, water overflows, which is called a whale tide. It may also be said that when it goes out, it is above the tide, and when it enters, it is below the tide. Its entry and exit are jointed, so the whale tide sometimes."

The observation ship at the forefront began to warn.

This is not the first time they have encountered a whale tide, but such large whales and such large numbers are indeed rare.

The night watchman simply lit a lamp. Wherever he could see, he could vaguely see three whales swimming towards the fleet.

The two larger ones are about thirty meters long, and the smaller ones are about seven or eight meters long. They still look like a family of three.

The fleet was already traveling at a very fast speed, but because of the warning from the observation ship, it slowed down even more.

Whales generally do not actively attack ships, but the waves caused by a large group of whales are also very fierce.

The best way is to slow down and wait for them to swim by.

But this morning, the usually docile whale ran towards the ship in a panic, and all the lights on the ship were lit.

No one was so heartless that he could sleep at this moment, so he hurried out of the cabin to find out.

"General, it seems that there is a group of smaller whales chasing them! Ah! They are coming!"

"What? The little one eats the big one?"

A scene that shocked everyone appeared: a dense group of about seventy or eighty whales, only a quarter of the size of the two large whales in front, was actually hunting a family of three.

"Ah! The bites are bleeding! Will it attract sharks? Damn it!"

The experienced sailors were panicked. There was still a big killer in the sea - sharks!
Sharks are aggressive fish that have a strong sense of blood. If such a large area bleeds, it will be a matter of time before sharks are attracted.

"Javelin, hurry up, javelin!" Gao Huaiyu ordered loudly, and asked the flag soldiers to flag the captains.

After receiving the order, the captains quickly adjusted the direction of the ship and gradually formed an encirclement.

They wanted to let the family of three in first, and then strangle the predators behind them in the encirclement.

Qin Ke was so angry that he jumped up and down: "It's shameless to bully the few with more, it's up to me!"

Among the three large whales, the last one had begun to bleed, and the two preceding ones had successfully entered the safe area of ​​the ship.
