Datang Longya

Chapter 750 Whaling (2)

A thick water column rose into the sky, and the telescope needed to be zoomed out many times to see the whole picture of this guy.

Zhang Liang said excitedly: "This is an adult kun. Our boat can barely handle it. How about it? Do you want to do it?"

Leng Feng looked at the three boats and nodded his head when he saw that everyone was eager to try.

These days, everyone is extremely anxious, and some people say that the Kun is a divine beast, and it has felt the malice of humans towards it, so it will not appear at the seaside.

They are all feudal superstitions. Now that we have successfully encountered a whale today, what about Kun?

Leng Feng asked the flag bearer to issue an attack order to the other two boats, and the three boats speeded up and chased after the whale.

The time for the whale to breathe on the surface of the sea is not long. If you don't catch it during this time period, you will miss it again.

The eight-ox crossbow at the bow was ready. This time, the eight-ox crossbow was not carrying thunder arrows, but a special arrow made by the Gongshu family.

This kind of arrow was originally used to attack the city. As long as it is shot through the eight-ox crossbow, the tip will explode and form three iron claws when it touches anything. Soldiers can climb the city wall along the rope behind the iron claws.

It looks tall, but in fact it is just one more deformation than the claws used by ordinary thieves. In addition, if it is shot with an eight-ox crossbow, it is much easier.

Originally, this was another secret weapon of the public loser after the ladder, but the appearance of gunpowder weapons made Xiongguan narrow and narrow no longer devour flesh and blood.fight?Wait until I blow up your city walls first, then fight after I get in!
Because of this, the public loser gave this thing to the military supervisor for free.

If it wasn't for the fact that this thing could be used to jump gangs in naval battles, Zhang Liang wouldn't even want it.

Today, when used to catch fish, especially whales, this hook arrow is useful!
It's just that the mechanism triggered by the top is the best when it is changed to half the body.

Zhang Liang, Leng Feng, Li Tai, Li Ke, Li Jing, and Zhang Zhongjian stood in a row with each other.

Looking at the pitch black under the sea, Leng Feng said: "Be careful, don't hit the head, the ribs between the waist and abdomen are broken and can be spliced ​​together. If the skull has a big hole, it's not that bad." Well fixed!"

Zhang Liang said in dissatisfaction: "It's good to hit it. Why are there so many requirements? It's really not good. I'll grab two of the same size for you, and you can splice them yourself!"

Startled, Leng Feng looked at Zhang Liang.

There are times when this guy is so smart!

Looking back at the sea, Leng Feng estimated the error after entering the water, and took a hammer to smash the trigger of the eight-ox crossbow.

hum!
The humming sound of the eight-ox crossbow's bowstring was extremely deep, and the hooked arrow swished and sank into the water.

Seeing Leng Feng drop the trigger, Zhang Liang and the others immediately fired arrows.

If the arrows of the cold front cause pain to the whales, their arrows will be hard to hit!
嗡

The five arrows were fired just one step too late, and the sea in front of them suddenly turned bright red. It must have been hit by an arrow!
All six pulled on their own cable.

Six arrows, none of them missed!

Before everyone could get excited, the originally loose cables stretched straight in an instant, and the bow of the ship swayed downward without warning.

Fortunately, Li Ke caught Li Tai quickly with his eyesight, otherwise Li Tai would have fallen into the water.

"What kind of obedience is this!"

Li Jing looked at one of his hands and smiled wryly.

He had just gripped the cable, causing his hands to be a little bit skinned.

Leng Feng untied the four longest cables and handed them to Chengke and Chengtai along the cableway.

It is a pipe dream to fight against whales with the strength of a ship!
With Chengtai and Chengke sharing the pressure, Pioneer's bow was better, but all three ships were pulled forward.

These are three ironclad ships!
After regaining his senses, Leng Feng immediately asked the flag bearer to send a signal to the other two ships to turn their propellers upside down and start the two sets of steam engines on each ship at the same time, with full power.

After the propeller is inverted, it can also add a little burden to the whale.

When the three boats exerted all their strength, the whale finally couldn't stand it anymore, and the boats began to retreat gradually, and the body of the whale also appeared on the sea surface.

After seeing the back of the whale, Li Jing gasped. No wonder this guy is so strong. Judging by his size, he has already caught up with an ironclad ship!
Leng Feng brought a new arrow in front of Li Jing: "Don't look, come again! We can shoot six arrows from the bow of each boat, and we will never run out of energy with it. We only count on these eight arrows Ya let it bleed!"

Only then did Li Jing come to his senses, and he shot arrows with Leng Feng, trying to shoot at the whale's belly.

At the beginning, the whale would toss a bit, pulling the three boats to tilt or even move forward with a brief burst, but with the shooting of the crossbow arrows, the bleeding increased, and finally it lost its vitality helplessly.

Humans are weak, but with the help of tools, whales, such high-level creatures on the earth, are helpless.

It wasn't until the three boats were able to retreat steadily that everyone was sure that the whale was dead.

To be honest, some people are already afraid that this fish will pull them into unknown waters and make them unable to return home.

After the whale dies, the winch can lift the carcass up.

The three boats pulled the whale in this way, and returned to the shore backwards.

On the shore, there is already a special wooden platform waiting.

The whale is huge and heavy, and it is not easy to get it ashore, so we can only build a wooden platform into the sea, and let three ships drag it to the platform as much as possible.

After some tossing, the front half of the whale's body was brought onto the platform.

Seeing such a huge whale in front of him, Zhou Jiao felt dizzy.

Master, these guys really hunted and killed a kun!

After getting off the boat, Leng Feng couldn't help but said to the soldiers who started to disassemble the fish: "Be careful, don't hurt your bones, I'm useful!"

Zhou Jiao couldn't help but walked to Leng Feng's side and said, "Master Protector, this is not good. Although the disaster victims in the west really need relief, let them eat kun meat."

Leng Feng patted Zhou Jiao on the shoulder: "I said it's not a kun, it's just a huge fish. The west of Dengzhou is not close to the sea, and the fields are very salty. If you don't feed them well, how can you leave the job with peace of mind? ?”

Today's Zhou Jiao has fulfilled his wish and has made a lot of contributions. If he returns to Chang'an, he can at least be a fourth-rank official.

A fourth-rank Beijing official is already a level that can be remembered by the emperor.

I have to say that Zhou Jiao is very lucky.

The other governors are generally in office for the rest of their lives, and few of them can accumulate credit and become an official in the capital, let alone a fourth-rank official in the capital.

Beijing officials and local officials, even if they are both fourth grade, are completely different from each other.

This height has reached the threshold of the high-level circle.
