Chapter 492 Train versus horse, who is faster?(1/2)
They really wanted to see the train that the imperial court was going to run, and compared with these excellent war horses, what would happen?
Of course, just such a locomotive is heavy enough, and everyone actually thought that it would be good that this thing could run faster than the last group of horses.
"Come!"
Meng Yi said, "Select fifty strong men, add fifty stones of food and grass, and put them in the train carriage!"
"promise!"
Under everyone's gaze, fifty soldiers transported the full 50 years of food and grass to the train carriages one after another.
This scene seemed particularly spectacular in front of everyone.
He actually came out fifty stones of food and grass at once?
This is more than these horses combined!
I don’t know if this train can still run with so much food and grass?
"Sir, the food and grass are loaded properly!"
A general and official report to the Tao.
"good!"
Meng Yi said, "Another order these fifty soldiers to stay in the train carriage and stand by!"
"promise!"
Hearing Meng Yi's words, the general turned his head and went to give orders again.
What?
Not only these fifty battle food and supplies, but also fifty soldiers?
Everyone just saw that each of these fifty soldiers is very powerful, and it is obviously more powerful than those cavalrymen!
How many pounds can you get now?
"How heavy is this?"
A commoner couldn't help but whisper in surprise.
"Anyway, there are so many things that are heavier than this Ma Cheng!"
"Can this still run?"
"I'm just running, I'm afraid I can't push it even if I push it!"
"Yes, fifty men, plus fifty stones of grain and grass, together, those dozens of people may not be able to push them!"
"That's not!"
Everyone was talking.
"good!"
Seeing this, Meng Yi raised his hand and said, "Since you are ready, please be careful!"
"It's at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the train starts! The war horses are released!"
Meng Yi shouted.
"promise!"
"OK!"
"Driving!Driving!"
All the war horses and cavalrymen, after receiving the order, move forward immediately.
And there was also a heavy sound from the train!
Huh...
Huh...
Huff...
Wow!
Woo--
"Move? Look, it's moving!"
"Oh, what's this!"
"This can still move, then who will push and pull?"
"I can't see it either..."
"Smoke out, smoke out, look!"
"It's on fire? Is it on fire here?"
"No wonder I called the train, it turned out to be lit?"
"Oh, there is so much food there!"
"What else are you talking about? There are dozens of people inside!"
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but take a few steps back.
The sound sounds really weird, no wonder everyone feels a little scared.
At least, regardless of whether there are risks or not, you have to take a few steps back and avoid it for a while!
Huff, Huff, Huff...
After the horses and cavalry on the side had already run away for a while, the train ran from slow to fast!
"Look, is it getting faster?"
"It's soon, it's so soon!"
"It's getting faster and faster!"
"Catch up, catch up with the slowest group of horses!"
"Oh, these big guys with hundreds of thousands of pounds and tens of thousands of pounds can catch up with hundreds of pounds. This is really amazing!"
In the surprise of everyone, the train became faster and faster, and soon surpassed the penultimate group of horses.
rub!
Rush!
Many people who saw this scene also forgot the fear they had just now and ran along the train, and even finally started running!
"Let's go, take a look!"
"Chasing! Let's see how fast he can run!"
"He seems to be running faster than us?"
"Hey, yes, why are you running faster and faster?"
"I won't see it anymore!"
"Everyone!"
A group of generals and soldiers immediately said to the people of Xianyang City, "This train will stop ten miles away. If anyone wants, you can run over to watch it, but I am afraid that after you arrive, the train will be long ago. Arrived!" Bayi Chinese website
What?
Ten miles away?
That's not enough to walk for half an hour?
That's right, you can walk ten miles away in less than an hour without loading.
After all, the Qin Dynasty was only more than 400 meters, and one hour was two hours. This speed could be reached even if it was spread.
The reason why the marching seems to be more difficult is that they themselves have a lot of loads!
Whether it is armor or weapons, they are all loads!
It is impossible for a person to walk fast and run fast when he is burdened.
However, this speed can be achieved without loading.
Of course, even if it can be achieved, many people are unwilling to do it.
How much energy does it take to go so far?
How much food does that cost?
In ancient times, food was not surplus enough, and unless it was necessary, it was unwilling to consume too much.
But this time, in order to witness how powerful this magical thing is, many people are still willing to hike to the finish line.
"Let's go, let's go to the finish line too!"
Meng Yi stepped on the horse and said.
