Back to the Three Kingdoms and become a python

In this way, it is natural that there is no need to bring more baggage, so the preparation time for the war is shortened a lot, and finally the preparation will start after three days.

The next day, as soon as Lin Bei walked out of the house, he saw An Zhongzhi was already waiting outside the door, and there was another pheasant at Lin Bei's door.An Zhong looked directly at the pheasant, and then at Lin Bei: "My lord, this morning a sergeant came to report that a beast had bitten a piece of pheasant from a family in the city last night. Counting this time, this is the third time. The first time was a wild boar raised by a family, and the second time was also a pheasant. According to the family, the beast looks like a snake. My lord, could it be that the red jellyfish did it?"

Lin Bei looked at the pheasants on the ground, and couldn't laugh or cry: "It's probably the Chijiao who did it, and Chijiao did it before."

An Zhong said straightly: "If that's the case, then it's fine, but my lord is not yet wise. If you are frightened by the common people in the city, you may cause trouble. Should you send some soldiers to work around the mansion at night? If you see the red dragon , then call the adults?"

"That's not necessary." Lin Bei shook his head and said, "Red Jiao doesn't bite people now."

Now Chijiao is not very emotional even when he sees people.It should be due to the fact that many people have seen them. Snakes are actually not low in intelligence. Some countries in Africa even raise cobras to take care of children. As long as you get familiar with them, snakes are still very docile. Of course, the premise is that people are not afraid of them.

"By the way, what are you doing here so early in the morning? Isn't it time to prepare for war?" Lin Bei asked. The war will start the day after tomorrow, and An Zhongzhi should have a lot of things to do.

An Zhongzhi patted his head with joy on his face: "My lord, the steam carriage was made by craftsmen, so Zhongzhi came here to tell your lord."

"Get it out?" Lin Bei's eyes straightened, unexpectedly so fast.

"However, these days, the craftsmen have worked hard, and they have really lived up to your expectations."

"Let's go, I'll leave the city quickly." Lin Bei hurried out of the city lord's mansion: "How did you see the carriage?"

"Zhongzhi came to inform the adults when he got the news, so Zhongzhi has never seen what the steam carriage looks like."

Lin Bei didn't ask any more questions. When he arrived at the gate of the city, many people had already surrounded him. When he saw Lin Bei coming, he made way for him.

When Lin Bei arrived outside the city gate, he saw a strangely shaped carriage parked on the stone road. The moment he saw the carriage, Lin Bei was stunned: "Is this a carriage or an airplane? Or a tractor?"

The shape of this carriage is indeed quite strange. It has a rectangular carriage about four meters long, with four wheels underneath. On both sides of the carriage, there are two wings spread out. Lin Bei looked at the structure of the wings, but they used There are some feathers on the top of the wood chip, which seem to have duck feathers and chicken feathers.

At the front of the carriage, the roof of the carriage is open, and there is a large iron drum in the shape of a cylinder. On the top of the iron drum, a thick pipe protrudes and hangs down, connecting to the bottom of the carriage. It looks a bit like the front of a tractor. .

When Lin Bei was stunned, a craftsman in his forties ran over and bowed vigorously to Lin Bei with a smile on his face: "My lord, I waited to live up to my lord's expectations, and finally made this steam carriage. Last night I Give it a try, this carriage will indeed work."

Lin Beixin said calmly, this style is a bit weird to him, but he is not afraid of being weird, as long as it is practical, he said immediately: "Okay, let the carriage drive, let me see how the carriage moves."

"promise!!"

The two craftsmen began to climb into the carriage and got into the carriage. At the same time, they opened the back cover of the carriage so that Lin Bei could see that there was a kang stove under the big iron bucket. The kang stove was as big as the width of the carriage. However, the stove mouth is very small, so that the stove fire is not easy to see through, and it is convenient for the water in the big iron bucket to heat up quickly. There is already a lot of charcoal in it.

The old craftsman was on the sidelines to explain Lin Bei's doubts: "My lord, I asked Blacksmith Li to make that iron bucket specially. Lift off the iron lid, as long as the fire was too hot in the past few times, the lid would not be able to cover the pot, so this bucket was specially made.

Lin Bei nodded to express his understanding, he understood, it was because there was too much water vapor in the pot.Just like cooking porridge in an electric rice cooker, if there is too much water, the lid of the pot will be lifted to release the pressure, but the steam carriage cannot let this pressure be released easily.

The water in the bucket was obviously very hot when it first boiled, so it boiled quickly.A craftsman in the car listened carefully, then stood up, stretched out his hand and twisted the lid of the barrel. Lin Bei heard a slight snort, but ran out without breath.

The old craftsman at the side showed a proud face: "My lord, I found that if the steam is released once, it is easy to blow up the iron barrel, so I used an iron stopper, just twist it left and right. The steam outlet is the largest or the smallest. In this way, even the speed of the carriage can be controlled. If the carriage needs to be faster, the steam outlet will be made the largest. If it is necessary to stop, the steam outlet will be screwed, and the fire will be stopped at the same time. The carriage It stopped."

"Then why is the carriage still not moving?" Lin Bei looked left and right, but there was no sign that the carriage was about to move.Then I asked curiously, could this be a malfunction?

The old craftsman snapped his fingers towards the other person in the car, and the snaps were extremely crisp.

The other person in the car nodded and walked to the middle of the carriage. Only then did Lin Bei see two trigger-like things on both sides of the carriage, which should be connected wings.Sure enough, as the man turned the trigger, the wings shook up and down, as if flying, and the craftsman watching the barrel in front unscrewed the stopper again.As the chirping sound grew louder, the carriage moved.

"Wow, it really moved."

"It's really running, but there are no horses pulling the cart."

"This thing is really miraculous. I can't imagine that a cart can move without a horse."

"What is this steam? It can make such a huge carriage run."

Surprise came from the crowd of onlookers. To them, the automatic carriage without horses was obviously quite strange. Even An Zhongzhi stared, almost protruding.

The old craftsman's face showed a look of satisfaction, and at the same time, he was also relieved. It was obvious that he felt quite proud of being able to make such a strange thing.

Lin Bei wasn't surprised that the carriage was moving. He had seen it too much, and on the contrary, he frowned. The trigger, so Lin Bei asked, "Why does that man keep shaking it?"

The old craftsman said: "My lord, this thing is designed by Mrs. Feng. It is like a bird's wing, and it is made of feathers. Not only is it very light, but it can also speed up the carriage." Afterwards, the craftsman paused. A little embarrassed: "In addition, the trigger is connected to the wheels. It needs to be shaken and then the steam will be increased to make the wheels of the carriage turn. If it is not shaken, the carriage will stop."

Lin Bei was a little speechless, this shit didn't use horses, but manpower instead.

"How fast can it go?"

"About walking like a human being."

Lin Bei was speechless again, walking at the same speed as ordinary people?This is going to go from Wanghai to Luoyang to the 21st century. How dare you show off after researching this thing?Lin Bei really wanted to yell, but Lin Bei endured it. After all, these people put their heart into research and cannot ignore the fruits of other people's labor.

"Let them stop." Lin Bei said.

The old craftsman stopped the two people in the carriage, one stopped shaking, and the other used an iron plug to seal the steam outlet again, and then extinguished the fire in the stove, and then jumped out of the carriage.

An Zhongzhi even boasted: "My lord, this thing is indeed a strange thing."

Lin Bei took a breath, pretended not to hear what An Zhongzhi said, and said to the old craftsman, "It's great that you can make this." Lin Bei praised first.

The craftsmen around immediately showed joy, because Lord Dragon God praised them, but they didn't understand the artistry of the superior's words.

"However, this thing is still far from what I want. As far as I know, this kind of steam carriage can travel forty or fifty miles in half an hour, and it only needs one person to open it. So, I think you can do it." Make it better."

"Forty or fifty miles in half an hour?" The craftsmen were all surprised, isn't this the same as flying?Wouldn't that be traveling thousands of miles a day?

"Of course, and forty or fifty miles in half an hour is not the highest speed. If it is fast, it can reach more than two hundred miles in half an hour." Two hundred miles in an hour is not fast, and most modern cars can reach this speed. speed.

The faces of the craftsmen were numb, because they couldn't imagine such a speed at all. They thought they were proud enough to build a carriage, but compared with what Lin Bei said, it was scum. Thinking about the speed of this carriage just now, and then Thinking about the speed that Lin Bei said, the craftsmen felt a little ashamed. Lord Dragon God gave them the best conditions, so what kind of crap did they make?

Lin Bei saw that the craftsmen were a little frustrated, but he said in his heart that he should not weaken their confidence too much. Lin Bei still had to rely on them to invent and create: "But a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. You already have a good one. At the beginning, the steam carriage can already run without the carriage. This is a good start. What you need to do next is to make some improvements so that the speed of the carriage can become faster and meet the requirements I mentioned as soon as possible. You Are you confident?"

Lin Bei looked over one by one, his eyes were full of encouragement, the craftsmen all puffed up their chests, and felt that they could not disappoint Lord Dragon God. Yes, the steam carriage has been built, and this is the biggest progress. It can be improved, and the craftsmen feel very optimistic.

ps: ps: There are no monthly tickets for several days, can you give me some tickets?

Chapter 200 Leisure

Lin Bei did not leave that day, but joined the research with the craftsmen.

Lin Bei doesn't know anything about how to make a carriage, or how to make the parts of a carriage. But he comes from modern times, and it can be said that he stands on the shoulders of great men. His vision is not comparable to that of these ancient people. He doesn't understand Car, but you can tell whether the car is good or bad, and you can also see what is missing in the steam carriage.

The first is the steering wheel. Lin Bei found that these craftsmen didn't seem to have considered this issue, or because the steam carriage didn't run at all and didn't need to turn, so he subconsciously ignored it, but Lin Bei didn't make this mistake and brought it up directly.

Then there are the wheels. The wheels used by steam carriages are the same as those of ordinary carriages. They are all wooden wheels. In Lin Bei's opinion, no matter how strong these wheels are, they are very limited. It is impossible to withstand more than forty or fifty miles per hour. Because he has a deep understanding of the roads of this era, running at this speed, even if there is a small hole, the wheels will be broken.

In addition, Lin Bei asked the craftsman to disassemble the carriage, and first took a closer look at the structure inside. Finally, Lin Bei thought of a way to increase the power of the carriage. This method is to use gears, using a large number of gears.

As we all know, gears can change some devices that require a lot of force to start through transmission with other toothed parts. Gears seem inconspicuous, but they are widely used even in modern times, and they are not outdated at all. The two gears are connected to each other. As long as the rotation frequency is calculated, the trigger that the man just shook is completely unnecessary. In Lin Bei's view, the way of cranking by hand is really stupid.

In fact, there are tools that use gears in this era, just like a rollover, the bearings on the rollover are connected to the gears, but not many gears are used.Lin Bei's reminder made the craftsmen suddenly realize.

In order to let the craftsman have a more intuitive impression, Lin Bei also gave an example, using a bicycle.
