This gyroscope is really difficult to get, and Li Sheng spent a lot of effort on it.
But it’s still the same sentence.
As luck would have it, there has been a lot of growth in Datang now.
From Li Sheng's point of view, Li Er and Wei Zheng are all super bosses. They can't talk about growth. Their level is always so high and their abilities are always so powerful.
However, the grassroots level of the Tang Dynasty has really grown a lot, and this gyroscope can also be made - yes, it is still the jewelry craftsmen who show their strength, but if it were before, no matter how good the level of the jewelry craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty was,
It's impossible to make something like this.
Of course, if you can't make it at all, it must be nonsense. The seismographs and astronomical instruments of the Han Dynasty were all made by craftsmen.
But gyroscopes also require precision. Not only does the shape have to be correct, but every part has to be exactly the same, which is more difficult.
This time, Li Sheng simply asked craftsmen to build a large number of gyroscopes at once. In addition to the numerous instructions to ensure the processing accuracy, there were still hundreds of gyroscopes in total - and from these one hundred, they all seemed to be exactly the same. In fact,
I put it on a modern pdd and put it among the gyroscopes that were rated extremely bad because of their errors. After choosing from thousands of gyroscopes, I finally found two that are suitable for use.
Of course, this is still the Tang Dynasty after all.
Even the steampunk society has not yet been established. To say that the flight posture can be automatically corrected like the passenger planes of later generations so that passengers cannot feel any movement during the whole journey is nonsense and a dream. To put it bluntly, manual adjustment is still required.
but.
After all, this is a gyroscope used on an airship, so the requirements are not that abnormal. After all, this thing does not have a pair of wings that need to cut the air.
But with the gyroscope, a big problem that troubled Li Sheng was solved.
The first and most direct effect of this thing is, of course, to smooth out the airship's posture and make passengers feel stable.
But the second function is to control the posture, but it is not for a stable ride, but for lifting!
Not to mention using a real machine, modern people who have flown helicopters several times in games, such as GTA, will know that "hovering" seems to be a common occurrence. Shouldn't it be aimed at the lift field to take off and land?
Is it easy? But in fact it is not easy at all, it is extremely difficult.
The helicopter in the game often bumps and bumps when lifting and landing, so you can imagine that it is a real machine.
Although the airship is not a helicopter, the buoyancy of the hot air is actually more unstable than the propeller power of a helicopter. It is more difficult to lift and land vertically. Of course, attitude control is also more difficult.
in other words.
Whether it is hydraulic control, gyroscope, or combustion device's throttle, after all, they are all for this purpose.
With this set of things in place, the airship's body can be stable, and only when the airship's body is stable can the size of the airship be made larger.
Only when the size is large can it carry passengers and have commercial value.
However, there is obviously no end to the technical limitations of this thing. Although Li Sheng has not specifically learned about the world record in this area, he can guess that the size of the largest airship ever built by mankind is definitely exaggerated.
Of course, it is impossible for Li Sheng to build that kind of thing, and then again, Li Sheng's goal is not very high, because this load capacity is the load capacity of an airship, and the experience of riding an airship is
Tang Dynasty.
No matter how you look at it, it is still a highly scarce and highly limited experience.
In other words, since it is a limited edition game, there is actually no difference if the load is larger or smaller. The main thing is the extreme style, which naturally consumes a lot of Li Sheng's time and energy, but in the end it is finally completed.
.
Not to mention that the entire research and development process consumed a lot of time.
Li Sheng was minding his own business and had been concentrating on research and development, but Li Er, Wei Zhengfang, Du and others who were far away in Chang'an found it difficult to cope.
Because even though,
Li Sheng finally handed over to the imperial court a repeating crossbow and a crazy waterwheel-powered textile machine. These two designs were naturally of great help to the Tang Dynasty, but these two things
But it's not decisive.
When he first started using Liannu and waterwheel textile technology, Li Er was naturally very happy. When the prototype was produced,
Not to mention anything else, the super sense of design makes people feel that this is definitely worth the price of admission.
But as time went on, these two things ultimately did not meet expectations.
The main reason is that it did not meet Li Er's expectations. In fact, the expectations mentioned in Li Sheng's words were certainly met.
This situation sounds complicated and convoluted after all, but to put it bluntly, in the battle of wits and courage between the Europeans and the Romans, although the repeating crossbow is very convenient for harassment, this repeating crossbow.
Its advantages of being quiet, fast-firing, and powerful in short-range bursts are not very good.
After seeing the battle report, Li Er wiped his face.
Finally, there was a sigh.
"This repeating crossbow is really a good thing. If it is used to defeat bandits and the like, it would not be an exaggeration to say it is a magical weapon."
In the Manlu Palace, Li Er was discussing the recent major political affairs with several close ministers as usual.
The first is this repeating crossbow!
When Li Er said this, Wei Zhengfang, Du Chang, Sun Wuji, and Li Xiaogong, who had recently returned to Chang'an for business and were brought to the meeting, were all startled.
Because since these people are Li Er's closest confidants, of course they all know about Lian Nu.
But first of all, this continuous crossbow is a legendary object, created by Zhuge Wuhou.
And who is Marquis Wu?
That is a great god who is as famous as Li Sheng among the people!
How could this repeating crossbow be useless? Its absolute effectiveness is off the charts, but according to Li Er,
Changsun Wuji was the first to be curious and saluted, "Your Majesty, aren't we in the Tang Dynasty fighting against the Romans and harassing them? This repeating crossbow is supposed to be the right one."
"Alas," Li Er waved his hand as soon as he heard this, "Auxiliary machine, you want to say that if the Tang Dynasty has this thing, it should be able to give the Romans a good drink, right? But I, I just said it, this company
Crossbows are useful for fighting bandits and bandits, but the problem is, the Romans were not bandits, so what should they do?"
Li Er seemed to have no explanation for his words, but the ministers below showed signs of understanding one by one.
Even Fang Xuanling thought of it and couldn't help but confirm, "Your Majesty said that the Romans have a fortified city."
Li Er nodded.
Just like everyone's tacit understanding, although this repeating crossbow is miraculous, it can't withstand rogue bandits. The Romans have a solid city and sufficient food and salary to arrange patrols. No matter how convenient the repeating crossbow is, they are ready to face such a serious formation.
The opponent is of less use.
But this was a useful thing after all, and Li Er was interested in the waterwheel loom instead.
