Chapter 1147 Unable to Climb the Rope
"Brother Sheng!" Zhang Qi called out in a trembling voice.
He tried to sit up, but it was difficult because he was too weak.
Qiao Qiusheng hurriedly crawled over and reached out to support him, anxiously asking, "Xiao Qi, you woke up so quickly? That's great, they really succeeded in saving you."
Upon hearing Qiao Qiusheng's words, Zhang Qi was filled with emotion and gratitude, and tears welled up in his eyes.
He gripped Qiao Qiusheng's hand tightly, choking back tears as he replied, "Brother Sheng, I... I thought I was going to die this time! Thank you so much for staying by my side and never giving up on me!"
Qiao Qiusheng patted Zhang Qi on the shoulder and said, "No need to thank me, we grew up together and are like brothers!"
"And when we came here to work hard at the beginning of the year, I promised you that I would definitely take you back."
“You went back home during your last break. The day before yesterday, your mother sent word that your wife is pregnant. Now you, your wife, and your child are all in your hometown hoping for your early return. So no matter what, I will never abandon you!”
After Qiao Qiusheng finished speaking, he carefully helped Zhang Qi lie down and gently helped him lie down, afraid of touching his wound.
Jiang Jiyun and the others' small boat had slowly come to rest not far from the warship.
Ji Yun strode up to Qiao Qiusheng and told him, "We'll leave this boat to you. You can row yourselves away from this dangerous area."
"What about you guys? You're not planning to ambush the Japanese warships, are you? Aren't you just sending yourselves to your deaths?" Qiao Qiusheng said anxiously to the group.
Jiang Jiyun shook his head and said, "There aren't just a few of us. There are several other boats around us, and another large boat behind us is also full of people. So we'll be fine. Now you need to leave quickly!"
“We’re good swimmers, we can help!” Qiao Qiusheng said eagerly.
"No need, your brother's injury can't get wet, you take him away from here!" Jiang Jiyun said and jumped off the boat.
Qiao Qiusheng silently watched the group of people in front of him as they jumped into the water one by one, their figures gradually disappearing into the distance.
He murmured softly, "May each of you return safely... You must all survive!"
Zhang Qi, standing beside him, was equally heavy-hearted. He slowly sat up, his gaze fixed on the surging river, his heart filled with bitterness.
He couldn't help but ask, "Brother Sheng, aren't these people really afraid of dying at all?"
Qiao Qiusheng gripped the oar tightly and pushed the small boat forward with all his might.
His deep voice came through: "Who can truly be fearless of death? But in this chaotic world, if we choose to submit to fate, then all that awaits us is the attack of guns and cannons; but if we rise up and fight, perhaps there is still hope of survival."
Zhang Qi nodded, indicating that he understood what Qiao Qiusheng meant.
However, his eyes remained filled with worry as he gazed at the flickering light in the distance.
He muttered to himself, "We've all given our all, so many lives have been sacrificed, surely God will be on our side! He'll definitely let us win the final victory, right?"
Qiao Qiusheng nodded without hesitation, "That's right! Heaven always favors the righteous, and they will surely win this war and achieve final victory!"
Now, Xiaotian and Xiaowei easily dived into the river and swam towards the shore.
Back then, none of them could swim, so they all practiced hard in the big river in the space to learn how to swim.
At first, Big White thought they were playing a game, but when it saw them blowing bubbles in the water, it quickly jumped into the water, picked up one person after another from the river, and took them to the shore.
Just as it brought people to the shore, someone else started blowing bubbles on the other side.
Big White was extremely anxious when faced with these naughty and disobedient two-legged creatures.
When someone hesitates to come ashore, it tries to bite them to urge them to leave the danger zone as soon as possible.
And so, thanks to Big White's persistent efforts and the pressure of not wanting to be bitten on the buttocks by Big White and several Tibetan mastiffs, everyone had no choice but to learn to swim.
Now, each of them can swim with great skill and ease.
Now, Nan and the others easily dived into the river and swam towards the shore.
After landing, Nan and his group took out their weapons and rushed to the battlefield, throwing themselves into the fierce battle.
The brothers Qin Rui and Qin Heng followed closely behind Jiang Jiyun, the three of them silently lurking beneath the river, observing the warships and waiting for an opportunity to act.
Jiang Jiyuan saw that his younger sister was being protected by someone, but he was still worried and specifically instructed Xiaotian to stay behind and look after her.
Xiao Tian was a little worried that he couldn't keep an eye on Xiao Yun, so he stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Wei, who was rushing up. "Senior brother, you're smarter than me. You stay and watch over Xiao Yun!"
After saying that, Xiaotian rushed forward without waiting for Xiaowei's reply.
With their addition, ammunition was produced as if it were free, and instantly the sound of gunfire rose and fell on the shore, deafening; explosions resounded through the sky, and flames shot into the heavens.
The riverbank was instantly engulfed in flames of war, and the Japanese ships anchored on the river also sensed the dire situation and immediately launched a counterattack, with the enemy soldiers on board busily preparing for battle.
Jiang Jiyun carefully observed his surroundings and, after confirming that the Japanese soldiers were no longer paying attention to the water, quickly took out the tools he had prepared and prepared to board the boat.
Xiao Wei, who was standing nearby, spotted the rope hanging from the boat and grabbed it firmly without saying a word.
He said to Jiang Jiyun, "I'll go first! You guys wait for the right moment to act."
After saying that, he used both his hands and feet, as nimbly as a monkey, to climb up the rope.
Qin Rui followed closely behind, easily reaching the bow of the ship, where he took his weapon and hid, just like Xiao Wei.
Seeing that the two were going so smoothly, Qin Heng turned to Jiang Jiyun and said, "You go up quickly, I'll cover you from behind."
However, Jiang Jiyun seemed somewhat hesitant.
Although she is usually good at climbing trees and walls, this was the first time in her life that she had ever tried climbing ropes.
Sure enough, she tried to climb the rope a short distance, but her body wouldn't obey her commands, and she slipped off the rope several times in a row.
Qin Heng, who was standing below, initially tried to suppress his laughter, but as Jiang Jiyun slid down in a disheveled manner time and time again, he finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Before Jiang Jiyun could get angry, he said, "You wait down here. I'll climb up first, tie the rope around yourself, and then I'll pull you up."
After saying that, he ignored Jiang Jiyun's expression and climbed up the rope.
When Jiang Jiyun was pulled aboard, she found the ship to be very high. Looking down, she felt dizzy and weak all over.
