Chapter 427: Experience the Steam Train New
Qing Cang said: "Well, just looking at the appearance, it really looks like a steam train. I don't know how it feels like to sit up. Let's go up!"
"please!"
The group got into the carriage. The train had only one carriage and one front. I have to say that the height of the carriage could not hold Zhao Zilong's spear. In desperation, he had to take the green sword into the carriage, and the spear was left below for the guards to hold it.
The seats in the car can be said to be very luxurious, all made of genuine leather, probably to give Qing Cang and others a good impression.
These people sat down at Qing Cang's instructions.
Dian Wei sat down and said:
"This is so comfortable, but it's much more comfortable than the seats in my military camp. Mr. Bai, how did you do this? Can you give me one?"
Bai Ye said: "As long as the commanders like it, I will make more of it for you to use when mass-producing trains."
After Bai Ye finished speaking, he saw two more staff officers and said quickly:
"There are two chiefs of staff who work hard day and night, so I will send it to you to experience it."
As for Qing Cang, he had it a long time ago and didn't need it.
After everyone thanked Bai Ye.
"Commander, are we going to start the train?"
At Qing Cang's instructions, someone started to add coal to the stove, and he arrived on the console to start operating. Everyone watched him pull down the valve and then moved another switch, which felt very complicated, but they all held their breath, afraid of missing a trace of excitement. This big guy was very novel to everyone, and everything except Qing Cang was staring at Bai Ye's operation.
The engine of a steam train is actually a coal-fired steam boiler. Through the combustion of coal, water turns into high-pressure and high-temperature steam, spraying steam into the engine cylinder to push the piston, and the piston drives other machinery to move the wheel forward.
Suddenly, a huge whistle sounded, which scared the generals immediately picked up their weapons to protect Qing Cang and the two major advisers.
"Correspondent, be careful!"
The actions of the generals caused Qing Cang to laugh, and at the same time he was also relieved, because from these manifestations, they showed absolute loyalty.
"Hahaha, you guys relax, there is no enemy, but this steam train is like this."
They then put down their weapons. When Ding Qing saw that it was the sound of the front of the train with thick smoke emitting from the front of her.
"Commander, we are going to set off! Please sit down and don't move around."
Bai Ye activated the valve and a large amount of steam entered the piston.
Woo...
The train began to move slowly.
This surprised the people sitting on it. This is different from the horse-litre truck pulling, they don’t understand why the train can start by burning fire in the boiler.
Dian Wei was very excited. "It moved, it moved!"
The same is true for others. As the surrounding scenery begins to slowly move backwards, these people must be in a complicated mood.
Xun Yu asked, "Commander, this speed is not much faster than a horse?"
In their opinion, the speed of the horse can be raised instantly, but the train is different.
Guo Jia also said: "Yes, I see this train is just like this!"
They didn't know that this was the case when the train started.
Dian Wei sat in the seat and said, "Don't worry about him, at least he doesn't have to leave!"
He doesn't care whether he is fast or not, he feels comfortable sitting anyway.
As for Zhao Zilong, Zhang Liao and Yang Xiaomei sat there without expression, without any expression.
Bai Ye explained: "The train is not like a horse. It speeds up as soon as it says it speeds up. It will slowly increase its speed. After all, a train is worth tens of thousands of pounds. It takes some time to pull such a heavy weight. The horse still needs to rest, but the train does not need it. As long as there is enough firepower and water, it can continue to run, as long as it is exhausted."
Qing Cang also joined the discussion and said, "Yes! You will know in a while."
He remembered the time he used to take the train. When the whistle sounded, the emotions between the person who said goodbye and the person who left were very wonderful.
Amid the roar of the train, the speed gradually increased, and the speed became faster and faster, making everyone present, except Qing Cang, Bai Ye and others.
"It's starting to rise, it's so fast, it's almost as fast as the horses!"
"Strong, indeed, powerful. The commander's talent is truly the only one in the world."
"Yes, so fast, so fast!"
Everyone kept talking, and before they knew it, the speed was getting faster and faster, which made them a little uncomfortable. They should know that the speed they felt was probably the speed of horses, and that the speed of the train was faster than that of horses. At the same time, some people began to wonder what if the train could not stop?
The length of the entire track is about five kilometers long, and it takes less than 5 minutes to run a lap. This speed is simply terrifying.
Guo Jia asked, "Commander, how can I stop this train? I feel a little dizzy."
After all, it was their first time taking the train, and more than half of the people who took the train would experience motion sickness. When Qing Cang saw Guo Jia’s face turned pale, he told Bai Ye to say, “Bai Ye, stop the train.”
Guo Jia can't make him sick. The world's number one strategist has no benefits.
After Bai Ye received the order, he pulled up the valve and pressed down the brakes. The train's wheels made a harsh sound on the rails, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Finally, the train stopped. Before he could stop, Guo Jia had already run aside and started vomiting. It was not his fault, some people were born not suitable for sitting on this thing.
Perhaps he could ask Hua Tuo to study a medicine to relieve this discomfort.
"Bai Ye, the train needs to test more mileage until there is no major problem. I now order you to be the chief railway engineer, pay equally with the division commander, and reward 50,000 Huayuan. At the same time, you have to build a railway from Huaxia City to Jinyang! Then create five such locomotives to be used for use."
This is a kind of affirmation of Bai Ye, and his reward is not vague at all.
"yes!"
He explained again: "The faster the better!"
"Commander, if you want to be fast, you must hire a large number of people to build together, and the demand for iron will be huge."
"It's simple. Commander Zhao and Commander Zhang, you two will go to the nearby Han army camp to grab more labor and allocate them to the iron ore, and the workers will be chosen by the people and give them enough wages."
Everyone should be "yes"
At the same time, he turned around and said to Dian Wei: "Captain Dian, you will take your army with you to occupy Jinyang! He will send troops to protect the safety of General Bai's project. He has to miss it, otherwise you will only ask!"
Dian Wei cheered up and said, "I will definitely live up to the commander's high hopes!"
