When he was on Earth, Gu Chen had obtained a driver's license for employment purposes. Although the actual opportunity to touch the steering wheel after entering the workplace was quite rare, thanks to his foundation in science and engineering, Gu Chen had a strong memory of driving theory and car structure.
It is clearly written in the driving textbook that horsepower and torque are two important parameters for evaluating the performance of a car. Among them, "horsepower" determines the upper limit of the speed that the car can reach. Therefore, cars and sports cars that pursue speed often pay special attention to this parameter.
parameter.
In comparison, "torque" does not help to increase the speed of the car, but when doing things that require a lot of effort, such as carrying heavy objects or climbing uphill slopes, strong torque can ensure that the car maintains a relatively stable speed. Therefore, it is versatile.
Off-road vehicles, trucks, and other types of vehicles used in rough work place special emphasis on torque.
With the help of mechanical engineering and the calculation unit of the ancestors, the sleeping cage monster was able to merge with the soul of the Li Palace Lord, and then transformed into the first heavy-duty truck on the Yellow Star.
Although the core deformation mechanism could not be activated due to the cage monster running out of control at the critical moment, the result far exceeded Gu Chen's expectations in terms of its vehicle performance - let alone anything else, just looking at the cage
When the car monster went berserk, it rushed from Gewufang to the West City Gate, breaking trees and rocks along the way, destroying everything. It was as violent as a land cruiser, and you knew that it was absolutely impossible to estimate the torque of this thing with common sense on the earth side.
Later, on the way back to the city with the hunting cavalry, Gu Chen, who was driving the car himself, was even more certain of this.
Unfortunately, he did not have the equipment to measure the rotation at hand. Gu Chen first compared it to an internal combustion locomotive with its own fuel tank, the kind that can pull more than ten green leather carriages - although this may sound exaggerated, but riding on the Yellow Star
The "Spirit Brahma" is originally an element that cannot be understood using common sense of physics, and Gu Chen is far from proficient in Rong Ling Casting, so he can only temporarily surrender to exploring its secrets.
Of course, although the principle is not known, it does not hinder its application.
Unlike horsepower, which is reflected in speed, torque is a parameter that is difficult to identify directly with the naked eye. Considering that there have been no heavy-duty trucks on Chenghuangxing before, it is not yet known how armored vehicles will be used in the future, so Gu Chen also
I have no intention of hyping up the powerful torque of the armored car, I just keep it as a reserve card in case of emergency.
To be honest, Gu Chen didn't expect that he would play the prepared cards so quickly.
The ghost rock species sleeping in the cave is undoubtedly a time bomb, and from the sudden death of the pack animals from collective poisoning, it can also be seen that the mirage hidden behind the scenes is full of malicious intent. Continuing to sit in the sleepy city will only make the situation worse.
, and the only way to break the mirage's plan is to use armored vehicles instead of animal power to distract the people.
When he came to this conclusion, Gu Chen intuitively thought of the scene in the old movie of liberating the trailer compartment of a truck. Enlarging the size of the trailer several times was probably the result he expected.
"The first thing is to connect the cages together, and the second thing is to make them as strong as possible."
Gu Chen was entangled. Although he had no doubts about the torque output of the armored car, he was not sure whether the wooden cage car could withstand the huge stress caused by series dragging. Therefore, when the evacuation plan was announced last night, Gu Chen deliberately
The number of cage cars was controlled to less than eight, and Fang Liang was entrusted to urgently manufacture connectors for reinforcement.
Making the connecting parts for eight cage cars before dawn can be said to be an extremely tight task, but fortunately, the most lacking thing in Kinoji is craftsmen. Fang Liang urgently made the connecting parts according to Gu Chen's design, and
After minor adjustments, eight cage cars were successfully connected in series to form a snake-shaped formation headed by the armored car.
"Master, is this all right?"
"That's alright. After all, it's just a temporary emergency consumable."
Fang Liang confirmed cautiously, while Gu Chen nodded in confirmation.
The connecting parts were made by the craftsmen in a hurry. Of course, we can't expect them to be very strong, but fortunately, there is no need to cross mountains and ridges from Kinoji to Liyang City. At most, the connecting parts are only required to last for two or three days.
.And in order to prevent accidents on the way, Gu Chen also asked the craftsmen to bring repair tools and spare materials.
"Next, let's leave as planned."
Gu Chen announced this.
The armored vehicle at the head plus eight caged vehicles, a total of nine vehicles provided a carrying load, 40% of which was used to carry cargo, and 60% was used to carry people. In order to ensure that the settlement residents with a total of up to 300 people
They boarded the train crew without missing a beat. At the scene, the marshal Fang Liang and the soldiers tried their best to maintain order at the scene.
"Don't be crowded, get on the bus in order! Put your luggage in the back and sit in front!"
These settlers, who originally resisted the authority of the lord, were frightened by the sudden death of their beasts of burden and the inexplicable landslide, and the great craftsman Fang Liang came to the lord's side to persuade them. At this time, they were finally willing to bow their heads and obey the command of the lord, and led the people.
With the supplies packed up overnight, I boarded the cage truck with my family.
There are four additional rows of benches in the cage car. They are arranged in pairs and arranged in pairs. Baggage can be placed under the seats, and there is enough space in the middle to stretch your legs, so the ride will not be particularly crowded.
It's just that the wooden cage cars connected in series are not equipped with shock-absorbing mechanisms like armored cars, so it is inevitable that settlers will get motion sickness when running.
In addition, in order to prevent passengers from falling out of the carriage during bumps, Gu Chen also had people urgently add simple protective railings and fixed handles around the carriage. For skilled craftsmen, these are just a matter of adjusting the connectors.
A small job well done.
It was so busy until dawn in the morning, when the hustle and bustle of the bus queue finally came to an end, and we officially set off to leave.
Gu Chen was of course confident in the torque output of the armored vehicle, but after all, the vehicle crew carrying the colony was just trying to catch a duck on the rack. No one could guarantee whether it would work. From the start of the car slowly starting, to the last
As the cage car was being dragged forward, Gu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and handed over the steering wheel to Xiao Yi, the co-pilot.
"Just go in the direction of Liyang. Relax and maintain the current speed and there will be no problems."
Gu Chen encouraged Xiao Yi who was nervous and sweating.
Before the casting, Gu Chen had deliberately simplified the control mechanism of the armored car. The difficulty of driving the armored car was probably only slightly higher than that of the bumper cars in the amusement park. However, what was being pulled behind the armored car now was an entire colony of residents' supplies.
, nothing can go wrong. This puts great pressure on the little white ape, but for now he can only make efforts to adapt.
"Then, Sir Envoy, I will meet up with Guo Bei's group as scheduled, and I will leave the team to you for the time being."
Gu Chen got out of the driver's seat and turned around to greet Zhang Ji and others in the back of the armored car.
Compared with the empty space when it was first seen, the back compartment of the armored car is now so crowded that even the messengers who are close to the governor are not allowed to sit on the same bench as Fat Ji. Of course, it is not comfortable, but after all, I brought the group with me.
The fact that the people left the village seemed to make Zhang Ji relieved, and he nodded in response to Gu Chen.
"I'll save it for you, the Young Supervisor should be more careful."
"Understood. If everything goes well, I will catch up with you later."
With that said, Gu Chen pushed open the door and stepped out of the passenger seat. Accompanied by bursts of exclamations, he slowly soared into the air on his feet.
