Chapter 283: Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse!
On the paper, what was drawn was something that this soldier had never seen before.
I said I had never seen it, but I was somewhat familiar.
Combined with what Uncle Huang said just now, he can basically determine that this weird thing should be a car.
It's just that, unlike the cars I've seen in the stereotype, this car has only one wheel!
Moreover, the cart pulled by the animal will have a crossbar, or a leather, or something like that, at the top of the two wheels, connecting the two wheels.
This connecting beam or something like that is placed on the neck of a cow or the waist of a horse.
The weight of the ox cart or horse-drawn cart is pressed on it.
However, on the paper given by the emperor, on the pattern drawn, there was nothing connected between the two wheels!
At the end of this strange car, where the wheels are located, there is also a drawing of something.
This thing has two curved horns on it.
It is the image of a bull's head.
At this time, the soldier had already discovered that the imperial uncle gave him more than just a piece of paper.
Now, take the first piece of paper away and look at the second sheet.
I found that the pattern drawn on the following piece of paper is very similar to the pattern drawn on the first paper, which is a strange one-wheeled car.
The difference is that this weird car looks a lot narrower than the one above.
Moreover, at the end of the car, the carved is no longer a bull's head, but a horse's head.
Seeing this, the soldier suddenly realized with some surprise.
There are no crossbars left on this strange car to pull the cart, and it is obvious that cows and horses cannot be allowed to pull the cart.
However, at the end of the car, a cow's head and a horse's head are carved.
Could it be that Uncle Huang is going to let the carved cow head and horse head pull the cart?
Man passes through two wheels and grasps the direction?
Think about it again, the one standing in front of me can make the turtle dream and send the existence of the cement god!
At this time, it is also very reasonable to give a good way to pull the car without manpower and animal power, but only the bull head and horse head carved on the car.
As soon as he thought of this, the carpenter surnamed Zhao couldn't help but light up his eyes.
The mood is surging.
"How, can you make it?"
Liu Cheng stood here, waited for a while, and when he saw that this person did not speak, he asked out loud.
"It should be about the same.
The villain looks at this cart, which is not as complicated as the donkey cart.
The size structure of these, the imperial uncle is also on the paper, and the drawing is very clear.
It's not that hard to manufacture. โ
"That's good."
When Liu Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but smile.
"Uncle Huang, the little and the little man saw that there was no crossbar connecting the two wheels of this car, could it be that this car was not pulled by livestock?"
When Liu Cheng heard this, the smile on his face was even worse.
I didn't expect that the soldier in front of me, who knew carpenter's skills, observed so carefully.
Just by looking at the drawings he gave him, he could know that this car did not need to be pulled by animals.
"That's true."
Liu Cheng nodded in affirmation.
Hearing Liu Cheng say this, the carpenter surnamed Zhao was even more excited, and his voice couldn't help but tremble.
"Little, villainous daring, may I ask, ask Uncle Huang.
This, this kind of car, could it be that it is also carried by the turtle? โ
Liu Cheng obviously didn't expect that this soldier surnamed Zhao Gang would actually ask such a thing.
I wanted to deny it, but I thought that my body was born from killing pigs, and I didn't know how to carpenter.
Moreover, such a thing as a wheelbarrow, at this time, did not appear.
It's always a bit bad to take out the drawings like this.
He nodded immediately, acquiescing to this matter.
Anyway, the turtle has already brought out a method for making cement from the Yellow River.
Nowadays, it is not impossible to have an extra drawing of a wheelbarrow.
Seeing Liu Cheng nodding, this Zhao Gang became even more excited.
The rest of the carpenters were also excited, and their eyes were full of light when they looked at Liu Cheng.
Not only them, but even Zhao Yun, who was following Liu Cheng's side, at this time, his eyes looking at Liu Cheng were all shining.
What a thing that came out of the turtle!
This kind of thing full of magic colors is the most attractive to the eye.
Now, just like this, they appeared in front of themselves and others, how could Zhao Gang, Zhao Yun and others not be excited?
After getting confirmation from Liu Cheng, Zhao Gang couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
For the very magical, but extremely bold guess in his heart, he became more certain!
"Emperor, Uncle Huang, this, this cart doesn't need to be pulled by animals, isn't it, is it pulled by these two things?
People only need to hold the wheel to grasp the direction? โ
Zhao Gang said this, pointing to the horse's head drawn on the paper.
The hands holding the drawings were trembling for it.
After Liu Cheng figured out what Zhao Gang meant, his eyes couldn't help but widen.
Many people say that the ancients did not have enough imagination.
Now it seems that this statement is completely false.
How can this imagination not be abundant?
It's so rich!
On the wheelbarrow, I made a cow's head and a horse's head because I thought of the two artifacts of the wooden ox and horse that were specially manufactured by Prime Minister Zhuge from Qishan in order to facilitate the transportation of grain and grass in history.
Wooden cattle and horses, Liu Cheng has no ability to make them.
Using things like wood to make a wooden ox and flowing horse that can walk automatically is an incompleteness for Liu Cheng and even future generations.
Because, there is simply no way to solve the problem of power.
Wooden oxen and horses can't be made, and it's not a problem to make a wheelbarrow, a sharp weapon that can be pushed by people on a rugged path.
After all, there are too many things like wheelbarrows that are easy to make.
However, in order to satisfy his bad taste, Liu Chengcheng painted the head of the bull and the head of the horse on the wheelbarrow respectively.
Pretending to be a wooden cow and a horse.
However, this is not all Liu Cheng's bad taste.
Bull heads and horse heads, in addition to decoration, still have some other functions.
When encountering an uphill slope, or a particularly rugged and difficult road, the old man who will push the cart behind ......
Yes...... No!
When the soldier who pushes the cart behind is tired and sweaty, exhausted, and unable to push, someone can come to the front of the wheelbarrow.
Tie the rope to the head of the bull or the horse, and pull it forward, which can solve this problem well.
If you put a little more thought into it, you can also make the tongue on the head of a cow or a horse into a movable one.
Behind the tongue, the brakes are attached.
When you turn your tongue to the side, you can activate the brakes and stop the unicycle so that it will not move.
People can't push in the back.
This is very similar to the wooden ox and flowing horse made by Prime Minister Zhuge in the romance.
However, Liu Cheng did not add this device to the wheelbarrow at this time.
It's just so unnecessary.
And, it's too much of a hassle.
Unicycles, as well as the kind of two-wheeled scooters pulled by later generations, brake all rely on people.
Although there are some big steep slopes and some wasted people, the braking effect is still very good......
"How could this have such a big effect!
This wheelbarrow is all pushed and pulled by people, and the bull head and horse head on it play a decorative role.
When you really encounter a difficult place, a person can't push, and a person stands in front of him, tied to the head of a cow or a horse with a rope, and pulls it in front......
This unicycle is better than the narrow vehicle, and there is only one wheel.
Generally, as long as people can walk over normally, the car can be pushed over.
On the rugged Shu Road, just right for ......"
Hearing Liu Cheng's explanation, Zhao Gang, whose eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and the rest of the people who heard Zhao Gang's words and followed the light of their eyes, were a little lost for a while.
However, my heart was soon relieved.
Let's just say that there should be no such magical thing in this world......
If that's the case, then what's the use of cattle and horses?
After looking forward to this bit of mystery, Zhao Gang, Zhao Yun and others looked at the wheelbarrow again.
Found. If the effect of this wheelbarrow is really as Uncle Huang said.
Then this time, in the transportation of Shu Dao, this kind of thing can really play a great role!
After looking at the drawings for a while and asking Liu Cheng some detailed questions, Zhao Gang had already figured out the wheelbarrow named by Liu Cheng as a wooden ox and flowing horse.
Soldiers always act with a sense of vigour.
Zhao Gang didn't have ink, and after figuring out how to make this unicycle, he immediately began to make unicycles with several other carpenter-born soldiers.
It was an axe, an adze, a saw and a chisel, and a planer was used to level it.
After a ping-pong operation, about an hour later, a brand-new wheelbarrow appeared in front of Liu Cheng and others.
These shapes are the same as those drawn by Liu Cheng on the paper.
One wheel, with two legs erected underneath the wheels, forms a triangle that allows the car to stand steadily.
"Let me try."
Liu Cheng said with a smile, walked over, held the wheelbarrow handle with both hands, and pushed it up.
When he was in later life, he pushed the wheelbarrow, and at this time, it was not half jerky.
Forward, backward, turning, very skillful.
After a while, he got four more sacks of grain and put them on.
A bag of grain is 100 catties.
Liu Cheng had a lot of strength, and when he saw that four bags of grain were placed on it, the wheels and frames were very strong, and there was no problem, so he added two more bags of grain to it.
With the help of a trolley, pushing six bags of grain at once is not too much effort for Liu Cheng.
He also looked for a rough road and pushed it for a while.
Naturally, it's not as easy to walk as a smooth road, but it's not a problem at all!
In such a scene, Zhao Yun and Zhao Gang, who were present, and Zhang Liao and others, who came to make a lively scene after arranging things, had bright eyes shining brightly.
Zhao Gang and other carpenters are sincerely happy and proud that such a magical car was actually made by them.
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao and others looked farther away.
"What an artifact!"
Zhang Liao couldn't help but praise loudly.
The Shu Road is difficult, and many generals who lead the troops are worried about transporting grain and grass on the Shu Road.
Now, with the emperor's uncle's creation, this extremely magical artifact named the wooden ox and the flowing horse by the emperor's uncle, it will no longer be a problem to transport grain and grass on the Shu Road!
"Lord, let me push it."
Zhao Yun stood on the side, watched Liu Cheng push for a while, and felt very novel.
Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore.
Liu Cheng saw Zhao Yun's eagerness to try, so he put down the trolley.
"Zilong, you come and push!"
Liu Cheng greeted Zhao Yun with a smile.
Zhao Yun placed the silver spear in his hand against the tree, and then trotted all the way to the trolley.
Following Liu Cheng's example just now, he held the two wooden handles of the trolley with both hands, lifted the back of the trolley, and lifted the two wooden legs off the ground.
Then he pushed it forward hard, and the trolley began to move slowly.
It's just that there is too much grain loaded on the trolley, and the position at this time is very rugged, and Zhao Yun's strength is not as big as Liu Cheng's, so it is more difficult to push.
Zhao Yun's face was a little red because he was too hard.
However, Zhao Yun's strength is still very small.
In the same situation, many people are not able to push.
Zhao Yun pushed the overloaded trolley forward, feeling novel and unfamiliar.
Under his push, the trolley was always unable to find the right direction, either to the left or to the right.
It looks awkward.
Compared with Liu Cheng's familiarity, there is a big gap.
"Uncle Huang, thisโthis is not easy to push."
After pushing the distance for a while, Zhao Yun looked at Liu Cheng and said.
Liu Cheng said with a smile: "Zilong, it's the first time you've pushed this kind of thing, so it's naturally easy to get rusty, so it's good to push more." โ
Easy to rust for the first push?
That means that it's not the first time that my lord has pushed this wooden ox.
However, isn't this wooden ox and flowing horse just made?
This......
The careful Zhao Yun captured something else from Liu Cheng's words.
However, he did not ask out loud.
He is a smart man who knows that there are things to ask and some things that are best pretended not to know.
Zhao Yun nodded, and immediately started to push the cart as Liu Cheng said.
After pushing like this for a while, I really became more proficient.
Turning and walking, more and more handy.
"Uncle Huang, I want to push too."
Zhang Liao stood there, watching Zhao Yun push the trolley for a while, and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
He said this to Liu Cheng out loud.
Soon, the trolley was in Zhang Liao's hands.
Zhang Liao followed Liu Cheng and Zhao Yun's appearance, and pushed the cart seriously and unfamiliarly.
Feeling the novelty, his face is full of smiles.
"Uncle Huang, I want to try ...... too"
"Uncle Huang, let me push it too......"
Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew, and some other generals also came.
I couldn't help but speak......
This newly made trolley has been pushed by many people.
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu and others were full of smiles on their faces.
Sometimes, a man's happiness is as simple as that......
