"Husband, it's not a good time to stay here for a long time. It's better for us to leave as soon as possible."
"Well! The search and rescue work is almost in progress, and it's time to set sail at full speed."
Although the encounter just now caught the foreign army by surprise and achieved a small and suppressive victory, the crisis they faced was not relieved.
The defeat of the foreign army was only due to the dispersion of its forces. If they had gathered together and started fighting, the result might have been a different situation.
The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, so it is indeed not advisable to stay for a long time.
The wisest choice is to leave as soon as possible before they gather to avoid causing trouble.
Although Qi Yu had regrets, he decisively issued the order.
The next step is to join the main force.
As far as the time required is concerned, it should be roughly the same as when it came, about the same time.
It takes quite a long time.
The long night, with no intention of sleeping, can't help but let people's thoughts wander. What's more, it's the occasion of reunion after such a long absence.
Reminiscing about the past is inevitable and necessary.
Li Hongyu and Qi Xiao's "brothers are so good" will not be expressed for the time being. I will only say that Qi Yu and his wife's "little separation is better than newlyweds".
Well……
Don't get it wrong.
Qi Dalang is a serious person, how could he improvise casually?
You have to behave yourself.
After Yin Tao knocked off his dishonest claws, she said with a serious face: "Husband, I have something I want to talk to you about seriously."
"Let's talk seriously..." Qi Yu said 'hmm', then put on a serious face and said, "If Tao'er has anything to say, just say it."
Yin Tao sighed softly and said: "After hearing the news about your showdown with the foreign army, I immediately arranged for the relevant military factories to work overnight and planned to come with heavy weapons to help. Judging from the final results, it was completed It’s pretty good.”
"Because this matter is so important, I don't feel confident leaving it to ordinary generals. After thinking about it, it seems that I am the only one who can take action personally. However, in this way, I have lost the opportunity to fulfill my filial piety. It is really a pity. !”
An opportunity to fulfill your filial piety?
What does this... mean?
Qi Yu's right eyelid twitched a few times unconsciously, and he concealed his uneasiness and said, "Tao'er, you don't need to explain more, just tell me the result!"
Yin Tao gritted her silver teeth slightly when she heard this, and lightly opened her red lips and said: "Old lady, she...she was a little sick, and even after a long period of treatment, she did not get significantly better. Over time, she came up with the idea of returning to her roots. My sister and I tried hard to persuade her. Days later, but I still couldn’t talk to her. There was no other way, so my sister had to take her two children back to Yongchuan with the old lady, while Xiaoer and I rushed over to support the front line. More or less, I felt a little unfilial. "
What, is your mother feeling sick?
Moreover, it seems to be quite serious.
Hearing this, Qi Yu suddenly felt that he was one head and two heads away.
Logically speaking, when his mother is sick, he should be filial to his mother, but now that the war is raging, how can he stop fighting and return?
Everyone must be put first, and the interests of the small family must be sacrificed.
Thinking of this, Qi Yu sighed, as if comforting his wife and explaining himself: "Since ancient times, it has been difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety. I just hope that we will not forget the kindness of our parents. Life and death are determined by Destiny, wealth and honor are in the sky, don’t get entangled when it’s time to think about things.”
Yin Tao secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and said, "It's great that my husband can think like this. I have been worried before that you would lose your sense of proportion because you are upset and angry."
Qi Yu gave a bitter laugh, shook his head and said, "It's a sign of youth and vigour. At my age and status, how can I act on impulse?"
That's good!
that's great!
Yin Tao praised a few words and then said: "If we want to return early to visit our mother, we must win the war as soon as possible. There is no other way."
"Yes! Winning as soon as possible is the right solution!" Qi Yu nodded in approval and showed determination.
Having said that, we still have to fight the battle well first.
Only in this way can you have the conditions to do other things.
…
Passing away like a man, one night passed by in a hurry.
In a blink of an eye, it was the next morning.
The south wind blows gently, the waves surge gently, and the sunshine blends together to create a wonderful morning.
】
Qi Dalang, who had not slept all night, stepped onto the stern of the deck at dawn and stood there looking intently into the distance.
What he is most concerned about now is the battle situation of Xiaotong and the other three.
This battle is an absolute head-to-head battle, with no special skills to speak of. Whichever side suffers relatively small losses will be the ultimate winner.
To use an analogy, this is like two people playing chess. If you trade a horse for a cannon, you will neither gain nor lose. However, if you defeat the opponent's big car, you will take a huge advantage.
At the end of the fight, it depends on who has more pieces left, and the one with more will have the capital to have the last laugh.
In other words, Yin Tao's rush to help is meaningful only if Qi Xiaotong and others retain their vitality.
If the new force is lost, all plans will be out of the question.
Although Qi Yu looked calm and composed on the surface, he was actually very nervous. He desperately wanted to know what the final outcome of this war would be. ,
But right now, all the information is missing.
It wasn't until the wreckage of a battleship came into view that Qi Yu got a glimpse of it.
Through careful identification, it was found that this was a Qiongzhou ship that had been sunk but not completely sunk.
Judging from the extent of its bruises, it was violently attacked from all directions during its lifetime.
The feeling is only tragic.
Of course, the foreign fleet was not much better, and was also beaten to pieces.
As we continue to move forward, more and more scenes begin to appear, which are so miserable that people cannot bear to look directly at them.
In one sentence, it can be summed up as follows: floating corpses everywhere, bleeding and floating oars.
Qi Yu gritted his teeth sadly and shouted to the sky: "The wind is rustling and the water is cold. A strong man will never come back once he is gone. Explore the tiger's den and enter the Jiao Palace. Look up to the sky and exhale and it will become a white rainbow. You will sacrifice your life for righteousness. You will surely do it." His name is immortal! Sons and gentlemen, please rest in peace! I will definitely avenge you!"
After saying that, he took off his clothes and hat, and bowed deeply to the sea in front of him.
The soldiers on the side also followed suit and saluted in memory after seeing this.
After a while, Qi Yu deduced the general direction of where he should go based on the actual situation at the scene.
If the prediction is correct, Xiaotong and the foreign army should have moved towards that direction while fighting.
"Well, adjust course immediately and keep going at full speed."
"In addition, enter combat status immediately and be ready to meet the enemy at any time."
The military orders were issued, and the soldiers immediately took action.
Qi Yu also opened the telescope and observed the situation at the scene.
