The speed of the fire armor ox is not slow, its speed is many times faster than that of the horse on the earth, plus the endurance is strong, a thousand miles away, there is no need to stop and rest in the middle, so it is definitely the best brute beast to pull the train.

At the speed of the fire armor ox, the speed of the horse-drawn train will not be lower than the speed of seventy or eighty miles, such a speed is already possible.

At a speed of 70 or 80 miles, if you are 24 hours a day, you can travel about 1,700 kilometers to 1,900 kilometers in a day, that is, a distance of about 3,400 to 3,800 miles.

And such a long distance, if you use an iron-hoof horse, even if you rush at full speed in the middle, it will take four or five days to change horses without changing people.

What's more, if you use an iron hoof horse to drive the road, when you reach the destination, the cavalry on the iron hoof horse is definitely at the end of the arrow, and there is no strength and energy to do other things, and if you want to slow down, you have to rest for two or three days.

This is extremely disadvantageous in wartime.

In the case of horse-drawn trains, none of this is a problem.

Horse-drawn trains, you just need to sit in it, you don't need to consume your energy or anything at all, even if there is motion sickness in the middle, after arriving at the destination, rest for two or three hours, and it will be relieved.

What's more, horse-drawn trains are much larger than cavalry in terms of the scale of goods and numbers of people they can transport.

An iron-hoofed horse, no matter how strong, can hold up to two cavalry at a time, but a horse-drawn train can transport hundreds or thousands of people at a time, and there is no comparison between the two.

The same is true for transporting goods.

On top of that, with the horse-drawn train, the distance between Linze and Shaman is non-existent.

Huangsha Town is three or four thousand miles away from Heisha City, and at the speed of a horse-drawn train, it is a day at most.

Besides, the speed of the horse-drawn train that Lin Ze took was definitely much faster than that of ordinary passenger and freight trains.

The general fire-armored cattle used for passenger and freight transportation are ordinary fire-armored cows, for example, the fire-armored cows of the fourth or fifth level of the day after tomorrow, and Lin Ze is definitely the first cow in the fire-armored cow herd, and the fire-armored cow of the seventh or eighth layer of the day after tomorrow.

(In the middle of the journey from Huangsha Town to Heisha City, you need to pass through desert and hilly areas, these places, not like the earth, there will be no danger, in these places, full of brute beasts, of course, the strength will not be strong, Lin Ze will also focus on destroying the powerful brute beasts near these places when he builds the railway.)

However, for the sake of safety, the fire-armored oxen used in the horse-drawn train must also have a certain strength, such as the fourth or fifth level of the day after tomorrow, and when the time comes, when you see ten brute beasts of the fourth or fifth level of the day after tomorrow pulling the train forward, the brute beasts in the desert and hills will not dare to act rashly, which can also ensure the safety of passengers and goods. ）

Lin Ze's special car is all the brute beasts of the seventh or eighth level of the day after tomorrow, of course, the speed of the special car is definitely far beyond the speed of ordinary horse-drawn trains, and it is normal to reach a speed of one hundred and twenty or thirty.

Starting from Huangsha Town at a speed of one hundred and twenty thirty, driving at five o'clock in the morning, and arriving at Heisha City at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, in this way, Lin Ze can go to Heisha City whenever he wants to.

If he set off at night, Lin Ze would still be able to sleep peacefully in the car, and when he woke up, he would be at his destination.

These are just the conveniences of Lin Ze's dead people, the horse-drawn train also has a strategy, and the convenience of people's livelihood.

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and in this road, trains are the most important roads.

With trains, countless goods can be transported to their destinations in the shortest possible time, thereby strengthening the connection between different cities and developing the economy of these cities.

In the same way, with horse-drawn trains, it will be much easier for people to travel in the future.

In the past, you had to walk for a distance of ten days and half a month, but now you only need to take a train for four or five hours to get there, and such a fast speed will inevitably allow more and more people to get out of the villages and towns, and in turn, the social and economic development will get better and better.

If you want to develop the economy, in the final analysis, you still need to revitalize business, and convenient and fast trains are the best ignition agent.

Strategically, horse-drawn trains can also play a huge role.

The speed of the horse-drawn train, as well as the large carrying capacity, can allow it to transport the army to the destination at the fastest speed in wartime, and the army does not need to rest at all when it reaches the destination, and can directly enter the battle, and the consumption of materials on the way to transport the army is reduced to a minimum.

For example, now that Black Sand City has encountered the enemy, it only takes half a day for Yellow Sand Town to transport a large army to Black Sand City, and at this time, those enemy attack forces have not even been deployed.

With such a fast speed of transporting troops, there will definitely be very few people who dare to provoke Lin Ze in the future.

At this point, some people may ask, no matter how good the physical strength of the Fire Armor Ox is, is it too unrealistic to run four or five or even more than ten hours at a speed of seventy or eighty kilometers, or even one hundred and thirty or forty kilometers, in a row.

The Flame Bull is a living being, not a machine.

No matter how fantasy it is, it has to have a degree, right?!

Hehe, this problem does exist, but to solve this problem, it is actually very simple.

When you take the train, the train stops at the platform every half an hour, an hour (short distance), or two or three hours (long distance).

One is to get on and off the guests, and the other is to change a locomotive and get on the water or something.

The horse-drawn train in Linze can be set up in the same way.

A railway station is set up in each city where the horse-drawn train passes, which is also used to pick up and drop off guests, but the locomotive here is changed to a fire armor cow.

Modern trains usually only change their locomotives every half a day, but Lin Ze can completely change the fire armor cow every hour here.

An hour of jumping at full speed, such a thing, not to mention the brute beasts on the Shenzhou Continent, even if some horses on the earth can still do it, so there is no need to worry about the problem that the horsepower consumption machine can't hold on for a long time.

Now the number of fire-armored cows in Lin Ze's hands has exceeded 20,000 (some of them were purchased during this time, and some of them were born by female fire-armored cows.) In addition to being used as a part of the cultivated cattle and a part of the brute beast army, Lin Ze could take out two or three thousand fire-armored cattle to be used as the 'horses' of the horse-drawn train.

Two or three thousand, enough for a horse-drawn train.

What's more, Lin Ze has been buying the fire armor cow now, and it will take a long time for the train track to be established, which is enough time for the fire armor cow in Lin Ze's hand to regenerate a litter of fire armor cow.

Therefore, Lin Ze didn't need to worry about the number of fire armor cattle at all, the only thing he needed to worry about was his wallet.

After all, with Lin Ze's large-scale acquisition of the Fire Armor Cow, and after others saw the advantages of the Fire Armor Cattle in cultivated land, the price of the Fire Armor Cattle would definitely rise.

Now the price of a fire-armored ox is one hundred gold coins, but it is believed that in less than a year, this price will increase by two or three times.

At that time, Lin Ze's cost on the purchase of the Fire Armor Ox would have to increase by two or three times.

However, Lin Ze will not care about this.

As long as his horse-drawn train is built, he will not have to worry about money at all in the future.

There is one of the most obvious examples on the earth, every railroad is equivalent to an endless mountain of gold!

"Now it seems that the first thing I did after I went back this time was to grasp the refining of steel, if I want to build a railway, this steel is the most important thing, and I have to refine it with extremely high quality, otherwise, I will not be able to bear the weight and speed of the train. Lin Ze thought silently in his heart.

The weight and speed of the train is extremely high, which results in the steel quality of the rails that are subjected to the pressure of the train need to reach a high height.

For example, ordinary steel cannot be used to make railroad rails, because rails made of ordinary steel can easily withstand the strong pressure caused by the huge weight and rapid speed of the train, which in turn leads to the breaking of the rails, and finally the tragic result of the car being destroyed and people killed.

"Although there are still things like Xuanbing here, such high-performance materials can only be produced on a small scale, and the entire Chu State combined, the annual output is only about forty or fifty thousand catties, and it can't afford the manufacture of rails at all.

The high quality of Xuanbing cannot be produced on a large scale at all, and the amount of steel required by the railway is not ordinary, it is calculated in terms of 10,000 tons, which is enough for the forging masters of the entire Chu State and the surrounding five or six countries to manufacture Xuanbing for hundreds of years.

Besides, even with this amount of production, it would not be possible to make rails. Each gram of the material used to refine the Xuan soldiers is dozens of times more expensive than gold, and it is obviously impractical to use such materials to make rails.

If nothing else, the problem of theft alone can block the road. Using the materials used to make Xuan Bing to make railroad tracks, I have just buried the rails in front of me, and the next moment, countless warriors will pry these rails away.

As for the huge benefits that these rails can bring to the people nearby, hehe, will the warriors still care?!" Lin Ze shook his head.

Maybe some warriors who have far and near, or who still have ordinary people in their hearts, will not do this, but Lin Ze can guarantee that there will also be many warriors who don't care about these at all, even if someone stops them, they will still come back to the railway line to pry the rails.

Things like prying railroad tracks have happened even on Earth.

Especially in the period when the train first appeared, when the price of steel was still extremely high, and seeing so much steel spread on the ground like this, many people's eyes were suddenly full of golden light.......
