Chapter 704 Riding the Wind and Waves ([-])

When Li Sansi opened the sails, he seemed to realize that his hull was under the wind. At the same time, Li Sansi, who was proficient in physics, began to analyze that if he rushed out with such momentum without slowing down , What kind of consequences will it bring, but Li Sansi can no longer think too much about it. The sails have been opened, but the wind is stronger. Li Sansi can no longer stabilize his rowing boat and is thrown sideways by the wind dragged out.

After the first wave of vanguard limelight, when the second wave of more violent winds came, all the rowing boats lowered their sails at the same time. From this action, we can clearly see the difference between experienced veterans and novices. You must be thinking about taking advantage of the wind and rushing forward, there is no time to stay, and experienced veterans know that you must not be in a hurry at this time, because the first wave of limelight has indeed raised the momentum of the entire rowing to a high level. The position, orbit, and speed of the ship have reached a stable state of inertia. If the sail is not buried at this time, then the second wave of wind with an unknown direction and route will come, and the ship may change its inertia under the action of a strong external force. , The shocks brought about will be unprecedented.

It’s like a ship sailing in a storm. It’s not that the bigger and longer the sails are, the better it is, but the sails must be fully retracted. Otherwise, when encountering unpredictable winds, the hull of the ship may be thrown to the bottom. The sky is facing the sky, so when the second wave of violent wind does not know where it came from, naturally none of the contestants is a mediocre player. Just like the first time they unfurled the sails in unison, they will unfurl the sails in unison again Folding the sails, paddling completely relying on inertia and paddles.

They want to open the sails again, but they can only wait until the second wave of wind is over, and the third wave is more violent than the second wave. That will be the moment of the second speed increase, and it will be a watershed. People will widen the gap there, with experience and good technology, they will rush to the front there, and those with relatively poor technology will naturally fall behind.

Li Sansi opened the sails at the second limelight, the sails spread horizontally and the wind was stronger than the first wave, shua la la!

The water splashed, and Li Sansi was scared out of his wits. The entire light rowing boat was stopped by the wind from the side. Li Sansi felt that the rowing boat he was in was pushed violently from the side by a super strong arm. Sliding sideways on the river, the wind was so strong that his rowing boat was blown into a 75-degree angle to slide on the river, and then the bottom of the rowing boat was lifted upwards by the strong wind, as if to It seemed to take off, the bottom of the rowing boat was slightly splashed with water, and the rowing boat flew out of the river like a ghost, and the people around were stunned.

Even the judges who have presided over more than 20 sessions of the Covenant and Oxbridge Sailing Races are the first time they have encountered such a weird sailing method. No matter where they are, they have never seen a boat like Li Sansi.

It is not without strong winds in the past sailing regattas, and all the students participating in the competition are people who have attainments in rowing, so it is impossible for many people to take such a sideways race in the wind. In their experience, such a suicidal way of sailing with the boat unfurling its sails is an act that must be avoided, because the risk is too great, and if one is not careful, the ship will capsize and be eliminated.

But it turns out that experience is not everything. At least now there is a guy who breaks the rules and shocks the eyes of all the referees, teachers and classmates of Covenant University and Oxbridge University. Some vaguely about to fly, what kind of plane is this! ?

In fact, Li Sansi was quite lucky. If he was a little heavier, or if he opened the sails when the first wave of strong wind was blowing, then the current wind would not be able to blow the sails to lift him up and leave the water. , reduce the friction with the river surface, let him basically rely on the wind to advance rapidly, if he only needs to be a little heavier, and the rowing boat only needs to sink a little bit downward, then the edge of the rowing boat will bear most of the friction force, and then being dragged into the water, only to end up with a boat capsize.

So the referees and commentators who saw Li Sansi's performance now were completely stunned and could not say a word. The only thing they saw now was the feeling of Li Sansi sailing like this, and only one word came out of their heads: Weird!
The rowing boats in front have put down their sails, and they are desperately paddling with the inertia of the first wave of wind, desperately occupying a place in the forefront. Secondary, but most important, is to find the next best wind position while rowing to maintain speed.

Hua Lide took a moment to look at the distribution of the current situation, but he did not find Li Sansi in the crowd, and now, only a few people surpassed him and ranked in the front, of course, there is such a gap of Huali De doesn't care, his paddling skills are absolutely top-notch, and the third gust of wind that will come soon will show his extraordinary ability. He can at least guarantee that after the third gust of wind, he can rush forward to occupy the most space It is a favorable position for rowing, and the position of the covenant river in front becomes narrow. He must ensure that he is in the top [-] places that pass through the narrow position, which is called the dragon gate, and the swirling current is very powerful. If you rush over at a fast speed, then you will be at the mercy of the whirlpool. When there are so many boats rowing, you will only be overturned, and you will never be able to survive, so now he is wholeheartedly adjusting his position. .

Li Sansi is definitely a mediocre player, otherwise, it is impossible to see Li Sansi catching up now.Then Hua Reid seemed to hear something, which seemed to be coming from a distant place. In fact, not only Hua Reed, but everyone on the rowing boats heard a voice, like someone shouting in panic, from afar It was approaching, like a bomb falling from the sky, the sound gradually became louder, then became louder and louder, and finally evolved into a sound that everyone could hear clearly.

"what!"

When everyone was paddling desperately, when everyone was about to turn their heads to see the direction and direction of the sound.

A strong wind came violently, a black image was like a bowling ball, rushing obliquely from the rear, there was a howling wind, a rowing boat with terrifying impact, a panicked Li Sansi, splashing with splashes, cutting in sideways Behind the rowing brigade, rowing boats fell into the water wherever they went, and they were knocked over by the impact.
