Chapter 260: Ribbon Cutting (I)
From the bottom of his heart, You Jun agreed with Hao She's plan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info is better for dealing with a gang than for them to be twisted into a rope. But after You Jun annexed so many small gangs, the power of the Flying Fish Gang grew unprecedentedly, and You Jun's self-confidence was also unprecedentedly large. Even if Hao She's plan is very good, but You Jun, who has more than half of the warship in Liangshanshui in his hand, how can he be afraid that these three gangs will not succeed?
Thinking of this, You Jun neither agreed nor objected and said: "The military advisor's plan is very good, when I figure it out, let's talk about this matter." The sons and daughters have been tired from the expedition in the past few months, so they can rest during this time. I'm tired too, so let's disperse. ā
Hearing You Jun say this, Hao She knew that his strategy would not be adopted. sighed slightly in his heart, after all, this is not a literati matter, and it is good to be able to do this.
After the leaders dispersed, Hao She also returned to his room. There are thousands of houses on Liangshan, and he lives on the mountainside, which is an excellent location with an unobstructed view of the water.
Looking at the crescent moon like a silver hook, thinking of his own situation, Hao She couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Creation makes people, creation makes people!" If I can do scientific research, how can I fall into the grass and become a thief! ā
Hao She looked at the crescent moon and sighed a lot for a while.
The breeze is gentle, blowing in the microwave. The moonlight is like silver, sprinkled on the water.
Listening to the sound of the minions eating and drinking in the distance, Hao She tossed and turned, and it took a long time to fall asleep.
Another night.
The next day, in Chang'an City, in the Dashun Palace, Lu Chengqi got up early in the morning. It is said that people are in good spirits when they are happy, Lu Chengqi has not forgotten that today is the day of the ribbon cutting on the road, and he has already instructed the Ministry of Rites to do things, so he must have been prepared, just waiting for Lu Chengqi to come forward.
Lu Chengqi, who doesn't like publicity, still has to put on a show for the things he values this time. He decided to use the highest standard of the emperor's travel to show the importance he attached to Chidao.
As early as the fifth watch, the city defense department in Chang'an City began to expel miscellaneous people along the gate, waiting for the arrival of the honor guards. The three divisions of the forbidden army, 6,000 soldiers and 200 soldiers under the command of the commander, were distributed in the alleys to maintain order. On both sides of the royal street, the forbidden army held swords in their hands, preventing the people from stepping forward excessively, and collided with the dragon chariot.
In a hurry to see the Chidao that he personally supervised, Lu Chengqi abolished the rule of going out of Xuande Gate at noon. As early as Chenshi, the moment when the sun was rising, he boarded the dragon chariot. The leader led the royal horse, and pulled the dragon chariot slowly out of the Xuande Building. Followed by the civil and military officials, go to the north gate of Chang'an City to Demen, and go to the first station of Chidao, Chang'an City North Gate Station.
The construction of Chidao has long been seen by people with a heart. I didn't know what it was, but in the past two days, I finally understood that these two railroad tracks were for the carriage. I heard that the carriage was running much faster on the gallop than on the normal road. The common people still see a lot of horse-drawn carriages, but it is the first time they have seen horse-drawn carriages running on the railroad tracks.
The residents of Chang'an City, who had nothing to do, waited outside the first stop of the gallop road not far north of the city early in the morning, just waiting to see how the galloping carriage run. For a time, there were thousands of empty alleys in Chang'an City, and even when the emperor traveled, not many people came out to greet him, which made Lu Chengqi feel a little disappointed.
However, after crossing the royal street, the people on both sides gradually increased. After Long Yuan walked by, many people followed Long Yuan to the north of the city, which made Lu Chengqi's heart somewhat balanced.
After going out of Zhidemen, and walking more than a mile, a brick and wood platform appeared in Lu Chengqi's eyes. Lu Chengqi, who has not been out of the palace for a long time, naturally has never seen this platform. When I saw it today, I secretly praised it in my heart. The achievements of the ancients in architecture are definitely not inferior to those of later generations, and even later generations cannot reach the pinnacle of the ancients with the same materials. The original simple platform, Lu Chengqi never thought that it could be built so tall. Maybe next to the name of the royal family, it is always more atmospheric than the people. I saw that the roof of the platform tiles are made of glazed tiles, the relief carvings on the pillars are extremely exquisite, the floor is paved with granite, and the part connecting the road in front is made of hardwood. Although it is no different from the platform of later generations, once it is depicted with the imprint of the times, it looks extremely simple and atmospheric.
When I got close to the platform, I found that under the platform, Tang Xun, Su Song, Shen Kuo, Yang Daoqi and others were already waiting. When the people saw Long Yuan, they spontaneously shouted long live, which finally satisfied Lu Chengqi's vanity. After coming down from the dragon, Lu Chengqi waved his hand at the people of Chang'an City, signaling that he accepted their support. The people of Chang'an City shouted even louder, hoping that the emperor would take a look at him more.
Walked to the bottom of the platform and said to Yang Daoqi Teacher, Tang Xun and the three of them all greeted Lu Chengqi's daily life, and Lu Chengqi asked after not being polite: "Have you debugged the carriage in the past few days?" ā
Tang Xun, who was familiar with professional terms, knew what debugging was, and immediately replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the ministers have completed the debugging to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ā
Lu Chengqi nodded, looked at the time, and found that it was not yet an auspicious time, so he said: "Can I test it, how long does it take to complete the journey?" ā
Su Song said: "Back to Your Majesty, if you haven't stopped at the platform, it will only take about a quarter of an hour. ā
At this speed, as Lu Chengqi expected, he was overjoyed and said: "Very good, I know that all of you are talents, and such a trivial matter will definitely not be difficult for you!" ā
Shen Kuo seemed to be worried: "But this carriage is too fast, if the ignorant people walk on the galloping road, the minister is afraid that something big will happen!" ā
Lu Chengqi was stunned, he hadn't thought about this question. Yes, people in later generations know that it is dangerous to walk on the railroad tracks, but the people of this era do not know it! The gallop must cross some crowded places, and there are no rules. If only there was a whistle, it would be great.
"That's right, honk!" Lu Chengqi thought of this and immediately told the three of them his thoughts. Su Song's mind spun quickly, and he immediately said: "Your Majesty, this matter is easy to do, just install a bell on the carriage." ā
Lu Chengqi was stunned, this was a little different from his assumption. The method of the bell is feasible, you can gallop more than 30 miles, if you listen to the bell all day long, and let people live?
When Lu Chengqi said his concerns, Su Song was a little silent, and he also knew that his proposal was a bit taken for granted.
At this moment, Lu Chengqi suddenly thought that the bell of the bicycle in the later generations seemed to be quite suitable for horse-drawn carriages. The bell of the bicycle needs to be ringed manually, which is very in line with Lu Chengqi's requirements. And this bell is not a high-tech thing, it can be made in this era. Just prepare a hemispherical metal cover, which is stuck with a stick, and it will ring when you press it by hand or pull it with a rope, which is not much technically difficult. Even Hongxiang-style rifles can be manufactured, and such small parts are naturally difficult for them.
As soon as Lu Chengqi said his idea, Tang Xun immediately knew that this was a good idea, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty is resourceful, and the minister can't wait!" The minister went back and immediately started to make it, if it was fast, it would be made the day after tomorrow. ā
Lu Chengqi nodded when he heard this.
At this time, Yang Daoqi reminded: "Your Majesty, there is still one tea time to reach the auspicious time, please Your Majesty come to the stage and wait for us to give instructions." ā
Lu Chengqi said: "Thank you for the reminder. With that, he took his special gilded horn from the hand of the chamberlain, stepped on the stairs, and climbed step by step to the empty and luxurious platform. (To be continued.) )
