1232 Science is Actually Simple
Liu Mang has never deliberately favored anyone, and this time, for the sake of Newton, he made an exception. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The arrogant Newton became the public enemy of the armory, and if it weren't for Liu Mang's best efforts to protect him, Newton would have died several times a long time ago.
Newton was a scientist, not a carpenter. He can only design catapults, and to make catapults, he also relies on skilled craftsmen such as Yu Hao.
Newton's design reduced the size of the material and omitted many parts. Such a design, in the eyes of the craftsmen, is simply child's play and pure nonsense!
Yu Hao and other craftsmen did not believe in Newton's "indiscriminate changes", and thought that according to his design, the catapult made, needless to say, would be directly crushed by the huge stones.
Liu Mang had his own way to appease and persuade Yu Hao and the craftsmen. Tell the guards to reward the Du Kang wine they brought.
Yu Hao is the head of the craftsman, he is addicted to alcohol, and Du Kang's wine is in his hand, whether it is Newton or Yangton, he forgets it all to the back of his mind.
Newton's design scheme is more exquisite, requires high production accuracy, and is difficult to make.
However, for the craftsman Yu Hao, this is not a problem.
As long as there is wine, the more you drink, the more you do, the better.
It didn't take much to make the catapult and assemble it.
Liu Ye's catapult and Newton's catapult are juxtaposed, with little difference in height but world of size. One is like a burly man, and the other is like a young girl.
If it is beautiful and good-looking, it is undoubtedly Newtonian.
However, catapults are ordnance used on the battlefield, not decorations displayed at home, and it doesn't matter whether they look good or not.
Yu Hao has always been confident in his craft, but this time, looking at the good-looking catapult, Yu Hao took a sip of wine and kept shaking his head. "Blind delay......"
"Whether it's a delay or not, you have to try to know." Liu Mang has never been so confident.
Liu Mang was not a good student in his previous life, and he was very scummy in physics. Hates the house and Wu, Liu Mang has the worst impression of the physics teacher. However, Newton, a physics teacher, is too high-grade, and Liu Mang can't believe the things designed by Newton.
Two catapults, ready to go.
Two groups of stones of equal size and weight have also been placed.
Two groups of sergeants, lined up next to two catapults.
Liu Mang nodded, and the lieutenant waved the order flag.
"Ready!"
Two groups of sergeants immediately rushed into position and skillfully turned the winch......
"Gaga...... Yikes...... Yikes......"
Liu Ye's catapult, the body is heavy, the components are thick, and with the rotation of the winch, the relevant hub emits a shocking rattling sound. Like a powerful wrestler, he makes a sound and accumulates strength.
"That's what makes me excited!" Yu Hao picked his thumb and took a sip of wine.
"Squeak...... Twist...... Twisted ......"
The Newtonian catapult also turned. The thin components make extremely fragile and weird sounds. Compared to the guy next to him, there is a diseaseless moan like a delicate little jasper.
"Hehe, you're crying......" Yu Hao teased, casting a disdainful look at his work for the first time.
"......Coaxing" all the craftsmen laughed without exception.
"Throw!" The lieutenant ordered the flag to be waved down quickly.
"Click!"
Two tall, shirtless sergeants swung their axes at the same time and slashed down at the catapult ropes!
"Buzz ......"
Liu Ye's catapult was the first to attack, and a dull roar broke out, throwing huge stones high into the air!
"Well done!" Yu Hao raised his thumb again, raised his head and took a sip of wine.
"Whoosh......"
Newton-type catapults followed. It's not loud, but it's even more urgent!
"Wow......" On the experimental field, there was an exclamation!
The stones thrown by the Newtonian catapult have a better angle and a faster speed. Although the projectile is a step slower, it can be the last to come first, and the huge stone blocks draw a beautiful arc in the air, and with the momentum of chasing the stars and the moon, it roars beyond the stones next to it and flies farther away!
"Poof......
Yu Hao just took a sip of wine, and before he could swallow it, he squirted it out!
How can it be?!
On the test ground, there was silence.
There is no need to measure, the level is already expected.
"Oh my God......" someone finally sighed.
"Smack!" The wine jar fell to the ground, and Yu Hao, who was addicted to alcohol, didn't even want the wine jar, and rushed to the Newton-type catapult with his legs.
Carefully inspected up and down, front and back......
"How is that possible?" The huge boulder was thrown high and far, and the catapult was unscathed?!
"How is that possible? Again! ”
Again, there will be no suspense.
Several consecutive competitions, Newton's improved catapult, won completely!
The craftsman of the armory workshop finally served.
"Foreign devils are really powerful!"
"yes, I can't imagine it!"
"Huh? Where is he? ”
At this time, everyone found out that the person concerned, Newton, was not present.
For the craftsmen of the armory, the new catapult can be called an artifact. However, for Newton, it was just a little use of his brain, a few strokes, and it was not worth mentioning.
Liu Mang smiled with satisfaction, and Lang Shining also breathed a sigh of relief, fellow Newton, is finally safe!
"Captain, please look." Lang Shining handed over a sketch.
Liu Mang looked at it for a moment, and his eyes lit up.
"Someone!" Summoned the commander lieutenant, pointed to the sketch, and instructed, the lieutenant was suspicious and began to prepare.
The lieutenant commanded the sergeant, and on the snow in the distance, he erected a banner and drew a large circle with a diameter of one zhang.
Most of the craftsmen in the armory workshop are ingenious, and everyone can guess that this is to use catapults to shoot targets!
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, all with puzzled faces.
Catapults are powerful, but they never compromise on precision.
Marksmen shoot arrows, which can be pointed and hit. The huge catapult can only be hit by which point. On the battlefield, throw hard, and whoever you hit is considered unlucky.
Such a big guy, can still shoot targets?!
In the midst of doubts, more than ten boulders roared up and were thrown out one after another!
It's too far away for people to see where the boulders are falling. However, the banner always stands, which makes everyone feel a little comforted.
If the boulder thrown by the catapult can really hit the flag accurately, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will vomit blood in shock on the spot.
More than ten stones, just after the projectile, everyone rushed to the target.
"Wow!"
"Ahh
All kinds of exclamations, one after another!
More than ten boulders, although they did not hit the flag, all fell within the demarcated circle!
How can it be?!
Although they saw it with their own eyes, no one dared to believe it. I rubbed my eyes vigorously and looked at it again, but I still couldn't believe it!
It is incomprehensible that smaller volumes, simpler structures, and lighter components can be projected faster and farther. There is such precision, this thing, extraordinary! The person who designed this thing is not human!
It's amazing!
In the eyes of the people, the magic skill was nothing more than the relationship between speed, angle and distance, and nothing more than drawing a parabola.
Newton, who studied cubic curves and the motion of stars, solved the problem of throwing small stones with the same ease as ordinary people doing addition and subtraction within ten.
Compared with everyone's ignorance, Liu Mang can be regarded as half-understood. Liu Mang was overjoyed, but he couldn't help but sigh: Science is too powerful!
