Chapter 778: Experience
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince be careful!"
Everyone's overreaction made Li Chengqian laugh, and at the same time, his heart was still very relieved, because the loyalty of the three of them could be judged from the other side.
"Hahaha! You three take it easy, it's the whistle of the steam train, that's the rhythm to start! Don't worry? ”
With that, everyone eased up a little. Put the weapon down.
"Look, everyone!"
Following the direction pointed by Li Chengqian, everyone saw white smoke coming out of the locomotive not far ahead.
And it's still very regular, every time the whistle sounds, there is a white smoke.
Wu Zetian said: "Such a behemoth is really surprising! ”
Li Chengqian smiled, in the future, it will be enough for them to be shocked, there are also those flying in the sky, walking in the water, and underground, everything that people can think of is possible.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, you are seated, we are about to set off!"
Laiji activated the valve, and at this point more steam entered the piston.
The sound is even louder and more powerful.
Woo......
And so on
The train began to move slowly.
The people sitting in the carriage were shocked.
Looking at the slowly moving scenery around her, Wu Zetian looked very excited, she took Li Chengqian's hand and said, "It's moving, it's moving!" The scenery moves! ”
"Nope! It's the train that's moving! ”
Wu Zetian is like a child, innocent.
Then she leaned on the edge of the window and said, "This train is much more comfortable to sit on than a horsepower, and there are no bumps!" It's just shocking. ”
The stability of the train was surprising to everyone, and it could not be so stable in a horse-drawn carriage.
Li Chengqian advanced the train for a thousand years, so that the ignorant Tang Dynasty people could enjoy the convenience brought by this means of transportation in advance.
And so on
As the train continued to speed up, Wu Zetian took Li Chengqian's hand and pulled it tighter.
After all, this speed is still faster for them, they have ridden horses, but the speed of horses cannot continue at a constant speed, at most a few minutes faster will slow down, but the train is different, as long as there is enough power, it can keep walking at a speed.
In the roar of the train, the speed gradually increased, and the speed became faster and faster.
Xue Rengui said: "The speed of a train can be compared to the speed of a horse!" ”
Li Ke corrected: "No, no, no, it completely crushes the speed of the horses!" ”
"What? Crushing? That's a lot of speed! Can it be faster? ”
Li Tai also joined the discussion, he said: "Yes, there is no upper limit to the speed of the train, if everything is in place, it can even be three times or even more than the speed of the war horse!" It's not a problem to travel 5,000 miles a day! ”
"Quick, really fast!"
Wu Zetian began to adapt to this speed, and she asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince, is this true?" ”
Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Yes, as long as the conditions permit, this king can let them create things that fly in the sky, and that speed can reach dozens of times and more than a hundred times the speed of horses!" Tens of thousands of miles a day exists! ”
As soon as he said this, everyone gasped, even if it was Li Tai and the others, their knowledge was still not as long as Li Chengqian's, after all, they were all taught by Li Chengqian.
When he said this, it made people feel even more incredible.
Su Lie also asked curiously, "When the power of the train is exhausted?" ”
Li Chengqian pointed to the coal and said: "As long as it continues, the train can keep running!" ”
The crowd thought it was incredible.
That's the energy problem, as long as there is coal on the earth, then even if it is open to the end of the world, the sea is dry and rotten!
Li Chengqian answered their questions with a dry mouth, and finally said:
"Okay, let's take a good look at the scenery around you, you are probably the first time you take the train in the entire Datang, cherish this opportunity!"
This railway is only a short ten kilometers.
Wu Zetian was there looking at the scenery around him.
"It would be great if one day we could get around on the train," she said. How wonderful it was to get to places we had never been before! ”
Wu Zetian is not a person who is satisfied with the status quo, which is exactly the same as Li Chengqian.
"Madam, this day will definitely come!"
Not only that, Li Chengqian also took Wu Zetian to the beach to have a look,
At this time, Wang Xuance kept looking into the distance and thought a little.
Finally, he also asked questions.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, does this train have to wait until the coal is burned before it can stop?"
"No, when the train is designed, there is a braking device."
What is a braking device, everyone is even more confused.
Li Chengqian had no choice but to say, "You'll know later." ”
It seems that it is impossible to say this to them.
We will have to wait until the train stops at the end.
The 10-kilometer railway was completed very quickly.
The time of happiness is always short-lived, and Wu Zetian looked outside with some reluctance.
But this is an experience that is also time-limited.
"Attention, everyone, we're going to stop."
Laiji pulled the valve and pressed the brakes.
The wheels of the train make a screeching sound on the tracks, which is very uncomfortable to listen to.
In the end, the train stopped, and everyone finally understood that something was probably like this.
When the train stopped, Li Chengqian asked, "How many carriages are there?" ”
Li Ke said: "There are three more!" ”
"How many people can fit in each car?"
"Each can accommodate about a hundred people!"
"Huh? Okay, the other three carriages are also loaded together, and tomorrow the king will let His Majesty come over! ”
"Yes!"
"Also, until then, you must do a good test, and you must not leave anything behind. One more point! The locomotive is based on this to rebuild five more models! ”
Lai Ji said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the iron ore is not very abundant now. ”
"You don't have to worry about this, this king will find a way."
Next, we have to build a railroad with big carts, all of which require iron ore, and we have to increase horsepower production.
Li Tai said: "Big brother, it's winter now, and the minerals are not produced, and if you make a lot of effort to produce, I'm afraid it will make people rebellious!" ”
"Yes! Big brother, otherwise we would have started a long time ago! ”
Li Ke continued.
This is a big problem, and if you don't get it right, something will definitely go wrong.
But Li Chengqian flattered the principle that there are always more methods than problems, so this is not a problem.
"You don't have to worry about this, this king naturally has a way!"
Regarding this, Li Chengqian has already thought about what to do!
In that case, then everyone will not say anything anymore.
