Shengheng selected two of the thinnest soldiers from the ranks, asked them to tie life-saving ropes around their waists, and then moved along the two suspended ropes to the other side of the river. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Thankfully, both soldiers made it to the other side. Shengheng breathed a sigh of relief at this time, so he could come up and see Yunyang, and when he saw that Yunyang didn't take his bad attitude to heart just now, he felt even more guilty.

"That...... Just now, it's not that I won't let you go, it's because you don't have experience in building improvised bridges, and our soldiers are all specially trained, so they know better what to do when they get to the other side? ”

Yunyang looked at Shengheng's eyes and knew that if he didn't speak, the person in front of him would have to be entangled in his heart for a long time. So she smiled and said, "Thanks to the Great Khan who stopped me from being reckless just now, otherwise, I might fall down due to physical exhaustion if I walked halfway along the rope." ”

Sheng Heng was also quite pleased to see her earnestness: "You usually always want to go against me, I'm really afraid that you ...... just now."

As soon as he said this, he found that there was a sound of quarrel next to him, and Shengheng and Yunyang were taken aback and hurried over to see. It was found that the two generals were blushing and their necks were thick because of the two baskets of thin iron chains, and no one would let anyone.

"What do you say about the use of this chain, don't you let the soldiers behind climb on the rope and bring it over?"

"How do you bring it over? Now a soldier can only climb two ropes, and their own weight is not good enough for the rope to bear, and you have to add thin iron chains, how can these two ropes bear so much weight. If we can't bear it, the chains and soldiers will have to fall into the glacier below, and we won't have anything to cross the bridge here. ”

"That'...... So what do you say? Are we just looking across the river? If we don't put a thin chain, we can make do with it, but what about horses? Are we going to leave them all here and go back ourselves? Think about it with your head, how many days would we be able to live on the Gobi without horses? ”

"A few days can be counted, and it's better than everyone falling into the ice now?"

"You're using strong words!"

"You're vexatious!"

"You ......"

"You!"

"Alright, you don't know the general situation!" Sheng Heng finally spoke. With a blushing face, he walked between the two of them and said sternly: "You two are also old men in the army, why don't you even know how to stabilize the morale of the army." Now we are in danger, and everyone is unwilling. But if you encounter it, don't complain anymore and find a way to solve it. What I didn't expect was that the soldiers had always been in order, but you two were noisy here, what kind of system? ”

The two generals glanced at each other, knowing that what they were doing today really didn't know the general situation. So they both knelt down and said: "We are too reckless to do this today, and we have disturbed the morale of the army in such a critical time, which is really a taboo in the army, and we are willing to ask the Great Khan to punish the crime." ”

Yun Yang watched from the side and persuaded: "Great Khan, the families of the two generals are all in the tribe, they are worried about the safety of their families, and they will inevitably be a little upset, but fortunately, there are no bad consequences, please spare them." ”

Sheng Heng still looked at the two generals sternly: "You all heard it, if it weren't for the worship and sacrifice to speak for you, the people of this army today would definitely not be able to escape." ”

The two generals were busy thanking Yunyang, and after Yunyang helped them up, he asked with concern: "I heard what the generals just said." Your fears are right, the support of the string is indeed not enough to bear the weight of the chain. But if the chains were not sent to the other side, the horses would not be able to carry them over, which was a tricky thing. ”

After Yunyang's words were finished, the people around him were silent. It seemed that everyone had no good way to solve it, so Yun Yang raised his eyebrows and thought about it carefully: "Does the soldier who accompanied the army have a uniform-sized backpack?" ”

Everyone was at a loss for the question that Yunyang suddenly asked. A general said: "The top ceremony is indeed one for everyone." But does this have anything to do with us building pontoons? ”

Yunyang showed a happy expression on his face: "Of course it's related. I was thinking that if I transported a mass of three or four hundred pounds of iron chain rope at once, I would definitely not be able to bear it and would be crushed. But if you can find a way to share the weight of these chains, then the rope can completely bear the weight of these chains. ”

Everyone still couldn't react, and Shengheng had already understood. An imperceptible smile crossed his face, and he immediately waved his hand to the people around him: "Go, empty everyone's backpacks, and send them here immediately." ”

When they were commanded, they immediately went into action, and went their own way. Everyone was still whispering when they left, I don't know what kind of medicine was sold in this sacrificial gourd, and now everyone is busy building bridges, but she asked people to do some irrelevant things, could it be that she wanted to delay time and make everyone unable to go home?

These words also vaguely reached Yunyang's ears, and although she was used to it, she was still a little sad.

The people around dispersed, leaving only two people, Seungheng and Yunyang. Shengheng looked at Yunyang, his eyes shining: "How did you come up with this method?" Did you come up with it just in that little time? ”

Yunyang lowered his head embarrassedly: "How can it be so powerful?" I had thought about the difficulties I would encounter when building a pontoon bridge, and one of them was the problem of this kind of transportation. But I didn't get into the situation in front of me, but I just thought about what if I encountered something that was too heavy to bear during construction. I thought, the only solution is to spread the weight of it. ”

Shengheng still asked with interest: "You are a woman, whether you are holding a needle and thread is writing and drawing, how can you have such knowledge?" ”

"It's not a big deal." Yunyang felt more and more that Shengheng was making a big fuss: "In fact, in the Central Plains, children will hear a story about Cao Chong weighing an elephant since they were young, that is, how to weigh an elephant. ”

"If you don't have such a big name, how can you weigh it?" Shengheng blurted out.

Yun Yang smiled and said, "Many people said the same thing at the time, but Cao Chong came up with a way, which was to bring the elephant to the boat and mark the position where the water surface reached the hull of the boat. At this point, the elephant is then taken off the boat. Then put the cargo on the ship, when the water surface reaches the previous mark again, you can calculate the weight of the cargo on the ship, and the weight of the cargo is the weight of the elephant. ”

Shengheng didn't say anything after listening, but just raised his eyebrows, expressing his admiration.
