What was drawn on the paper was something that the soldier had never seen before.
Although I have never seen it before, I am somewhat familiar with it.
Combined with what the emperor's uncle said just now, he was basically certain that this rather weird thing should be a car.
However, unlike the cars we have seen in our stereotypes, this car only has one wheel!
Moreover, for carts pulled by animals, there will be a crossbar or something like leather at the top of the two shafts to connect the two shafts.
The connecting crossbar and the like are placed on the neck of the cow or the waist of the horse.
The weight of the ox cart or horse carriage rests on this.
However, on the paper given by the emperor's uncle, there was no connection between the two shafts in the pattern drawn on it!
There is something painted on the rear end of this weird car, just above the wheel.
This thing has two curved corners on it.
It is the image of a bull's head.
By this time, the soldier had discovered that the emperor's uncle had given him more than just a piece of paper.
Now, take away the first piece of paper and look at the second piece of paper.
I found that the pattern drawn on the following piece of paper was very similar to the pattern drawn on the first piece of paper. They were both a weird one-wheeled car.
The difference is that this weird car looks much narrower than the one above.
Moreover, what is carved on the rear end of the car is no longer an ox head, but a horse head.
Seeing this, the soldier suddenly realized something with some surprise and uncertainty.
There are no crossbars left for pulling the cart on this strange cart. Obviously, oxen and horses cannot be used to pull the cart.
However, on the rear end of the car, the heads of cows and horses were carved.
Could it be that the emperor's uncle was planning to let the carved bull and horse heads pull the cart?
People use two carriage shafts to control the direction?
Thinking back again, the person standing in front of you is a being who can make the turtles dream and send them concrete magic cubes!
At this time, it is also very reasonable to give a good method to pull the car without human or animal power, and only need the heads of oxen and horses carved on the car.
When he thought of this, the carpenter named Zhao couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
The heartbeat is surging.
"How about it? Can you make it?"
Liu Cheng stood here and waited for a while. When he saw that the man was silent, he asked.
"It should be about the same.
The little man looks at this cart, it's not as complicated as a donkey cart.
The size and structure of these were also drawn on the paper by the emperor's uncle, who drew them very clearly.
It’s not that difficult to make.”
"That's good."
When Liu Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but smile.
"Uncle Emperor, I saw that there is no crossbar connecting the two shafts of this cart. Could it be that this cart does not need animals to pull it?"
When Liu Cheng heard this, his smile became even bigger.
I didn't expect that the soldier in front of me, who was skilled in carpenter skills, would observe so carefully.
Just by looking at the drawings I gave him, I can tell that this car does not need to be pulled by animals.
"Indeed."
Liu Cheng nodded in affirmation.
Hearing what Liu Cheng said, the carpenter named Zhao became even more excited, and his voice could not help but tremble.
"Young man, if you dare, please ask your uncle.
Could this, this kind of car be carried on the back of a divine turtle?"
Liu Cheng obviously did not expect that the soldier named Zhao and Zhao Gang would actually ask such a question.
I wanted to deny it, but then I thought that my body was born as a butcher, and I didn't know how to do carpentry.
Moreover, such a thing as a wheelbarrow did not appear at this time.
It's always not good to take out the drawings like this.
He nodded immediately, acquiescing to this matter.
Anyway, the Divine Turtle has already carried out the method of making cement from the Yellow River.
Now that there is another drawing of a unicycle, it is not impossible.
Seeing Liu Cheng nodding, Zhao Gang became even more excited.
The other carpenters were equally excited and looked at Liu Cheng with bright eyes.
Not only them, but also Zhao Yun, who was following Liu Cheng, looked at Liu Cheng with bright eyes at this time.
What the turtle is carrying!
This kind of thing full of magical colors is the most eye-catching.
Now, just like this, Zhao Gang, Zhao Yun and others appeared in front of him. 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 gulp of saliva.
He became even more certain about the miraculous yet extremely bold guess in his heart!
"Huang, uncle Huang, this, this cart doesn't need to be pulled by animals, right? Is it pulled by these two things?
People only need to hold the shaft of the car to control the direction?"
Zhao Gang said this and pointed his finger at the horse head drawn on the paper.
The hands holding the drawings were trembling.
After Liu Cheng understood what Zhao Gang meant, his eyes could not help but widen.
Many people say that the imagination of the ancients was not rich enough.
Now it seems that this sentence is completely wrong.
How can this imagination not be rich?
It’s so rich!
I made the cow head and the horse head on the wheelbarrow because I thought of the two artifacts specially made by Prime Minister Zhuge Liang out of Qishan in history to transport grain and grass, which were suitable for traveling on the Shu Road.
A wooden cow and a stray horse, Liu Cheng did not have the ability to create them.
Using wood to create a self-propelled wooden cow or horse was an unachievable task for Liu Cheng and even for future generations.
Because there is simply no way to solve the power problem.
A wooden cow or a stray horse cannot be made, but it is not a problem to make a sharp tool like a wheelbarrow that can be pushed along rugged trails.
After all, something like a unicycle is much easier to make.
However, in order to satisfy his bad taste, Liu Chengcheng painted a cow's head and a horse's head on the wheelbarrow.
Pretending to be a wooden cow or a stray horse.
However, this is not all Liu Cheng's bad taste.
Bull heads and horse heads, in addition to decoration, also have other functions.
When encountering an uphill slope or a particularly rough and difficult road, the old man pushing the cart behind...
Ah...no!
When the soldiers behind the wheelbarrow are tired, sweaty, exhausted, and unable to push the wheelbarrow, someone can come to the front of the wheelbarrow.
This problem can be solved by tying the rope to the head of a cow or a horse and pulling it from the front.
If you spend some more effort, you can also make the tongue on the head of a cow or a horse into a movable one.
The back of the tongue is connected to the braking device.
When you turn the tongue to one side, you can activate the brakes and stop the unicycle to stop it from moving.
It can't be pushed even if someone pushes from behind.
This is very similar to the wooden cow and flowing horse created by Prime Minister Zhuge in the novel.
However, Liu Cheng did not add this device to the wheelbarrow at this time.
It's really unnecessary.
Moreover, this is too much trouble.
Wheelbarrows, as well as the two-wheeled carts pulled by later generations, all rely on people to brake.
Although I encountered some steep slopes and was a little disabled, the braking effect was still very good...
"How could this have such a big effect!
This wheelbarrow relies entirely on people pushing and pulling it, and the bull and horse heads on it are for decoration.
If you really encounter a difficult place, if you can't push it alone, stand in front of someone, tie a rope to the head of the cow or horse, and pull in front...
The advantage of this unicycle is that it is narrow and has only one wheel.
Generally, as long as people can walk over normally, the car can push over.
On the rugged Shu road, it is just right..."
After hearing Liu Cheng's explanation, Zhao Gang's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the other people whose eyes lit up after hearing Zhao Gang's words felt a little disappointed for a moment.
However, my heart soon felt relieved.
Just say that there should be no such magical things in this world...
If this is the case, then what is the use of cattle and horses?
After the expectation of this mysterious color subsided, Zhao Gang, Zhao Yun and others looked at the unicycle again.
Discover. If the effect of this wheelbarrow is really what the emperor said.
So this time, this kind of thing can really play a great role in transportation on the Shu Road!
After looking at the drawings for a while and asking Liu Cheng some detailed questions, Zhao Gang had already figured out the wheelbarrow, which Liu Cheng named Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse.
Soldiers always act with a sense of competence.
Zhao Gang had no ink marks. After he figured out how to make the wheelbarrow, he immediately started making the wheelbarrow with several other soldiers who were carpenters.
It’s an axe, an adze, a saw, a chisel, and a plane for leveling.
After a lot of ping-pong-pong maneuvering, about an hour later, a brand-new wheelbarrow appeared in front of Liu Cheng and others.
The shapes are the same as those drawn by Liu Cheng on the paper.
A wheel and two legs standing upright under the shaft form a triangle, allowing the car to stand firmly here.
"Let me try."
Liu Cheng said with a smile, walked over, held the handle of the wheelbarrow with both hands, and pushed it.
When he was in later generations, he pushed a wheelbarrow. At this time, he didn't feel awkward at all when pushing it.
Moving forward, retreating, turning, etc. are very skillful.
After doing this for a while, I got four more bags of grain and put them on it.
One bag of grain weighs one hundred pounds.
Liu Cheng was very strong. When he saw that the four bags of grain were placed on top and the wheels and frames were all very strong and there were no problems, he put two more bags of grain on top.
With the help of a handcart, it was not too strenuous for Liu Cheng to push six bags of grain at once.
He even found a rough road and pushed it for a while.
Of course there is no smooth road, but there is no problem at all!
Seeing such a scene, the eyes of Zhao Yun, Zhao Gang, and Zhang Liao and others who had finished arranging things and came over to have fun shone brightly.
Zhao Gang and other carpenters felt sincerely happy and proud that such a magical car was built by them.
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao and others looked further ahead.
"What an artifact!"
Zhang Liao couldn't help but praise him loudly.
The road to Shu is difficult, and many generals leading the army are worried about transporting grain and grass on the road to Shu.
Now, with the extremely miraculous artifacts created by the emperor's uncle and named by the emperor's uncle the wooden ox and the flowing horse, transporting grain and grass on the Shu road will no longer be a problem!
"Lord, let me do the pushing."
Zhao Yun stood on the edge and watched Liu Cheng push for a while, feeling very strange.
Finally I couldn't bear it anymore.
When Liu Cheng saw Zhao Yun eager to try, he put the cart down.
"Zilong, come and take a look!"
Liu Cheng greeted Zhao Yun with a smile.
Zhao Yun placed the silver gun in his hand against the tree, then trotted all the way to the cart.
Imitating what Liu Cheng did 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 forward hard, and the trolley began to move slowly.
However, there was too much grain loaded on the cart, and the location at this time was very rugged. Zhao Yun was not as strong as Liu Cheng, so it was more difficult to push it.
Zhao Yun's face was a little red from exerting too much effort.
However, Zhao Yun's strength is still very strong.
Under the same circumstances, many people are unable to push.
Zhao Yun pushed the overloaded trolley forward, feeling novel and unfamiliar.
Under his push, the trolley always couldn't find the right direction, either leaning to the left or right.
It looks very awkward.
Compared with Liu Cheng's familiarity, there is a big gap.
"Uncle Emperor, this, this is not easy to push."
After pushing for a while, Zhao Yun looked at Liu Cheng and said.
Liu Cheng smiled and said: "Zilong, this is your first time pushing something like this. Naturally, it is easy for you to get rusty. It would be better if you push it more."
Is it easy to get rusty when you push for the first time?
That means that this is not the first time that my lord has pushed this wooden ox.
But wasn’t this wooden cow and stray horse just created?
this……
The attentive 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 some things you can ask and some things it is better to pretend not to know.
Zhao Yun nodded, and immediately started pushing the cart as Liu Cheng said.
After pushing like this for a while, I became much more proficient.
Walking around corners becomes more and more comfortable.
"Uncle Emperor, I also want to push."
Zhang Liao stood there, watching Zhao Yun push the cart 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 imitated Liu Cheng and Zhao Yun, pushing the cart seriously but unfamiliarly.
Feeling this novelty, my face was full of smiles.
"Uncle Huang, I also want to try..."
"Uncle Emperor, let me push too..."
Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew, and some other generals also came over.
They couldn't help but speak one after another...
This newly manufactured trolley has been pushed by many people.
The faces of Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu and others were all smiles.
