After waking up, Zhu Rong was no longer sleepy.
He looked at the sky outside the tent. It was still late at night.
Zhu Rong got up excitedly and prepared to find a place with no one to try the hot air balloon.
As a transmigrator, Zhu Xiong also had a dream of flying freely in the blue sky.
He couldn't wait to experience the feeling of standing on the blue sky and looking into the distance.
After putting on his clothes, Zhu Xiong walked out of the tent and left the military camp.
At this moment, the Xuanwu Lake military camp was basically empty with the 150,000 troops heading north.
It was not difficult to get out.
After Zhu Xiong left the military camp, he found a quiet place where no one lived.
Then, he took out a hot air balloon from his Backpack.
Looking at the huge hot air balloon in front of him, Zhu Rong was a little excited.
He quickly boarded the basket under the hot air balloon.
Just as Zhu Xiong was about to start the hot air balloon and take off, he discovered a problem that made him extremely dumbfounded.
The fuel!
How the f * ck could they fly without fuel?
The system only rewarded him with physical items, not fuel.
Zhu Rong was stunned.
He knew that if the hot air balloon wanted to carry people for a long time, it would need to use helium or liquefied gas.
Then, he thought of a more serious problem.
The fuel for the hot air balloon could still be solved. The alchemical fire oil, which was also known as oil, could be replaced.
However, airships were different. They used liquefied gas or hydrogen.
The larger the airship model, the longer the flight time, and the more shocking the fuel required.
With his current environment, he could get liquefied gas and hydrogen.
Using the system to simulate and invent again?
It simply wouldn't work.
After using the system so many times, Zhu Xiong had come to the conclusion that the system reward would only give him the first invention in the life simulation.
Choosing to research experience to create?
That was even more ridiculous. He did not have the time now.
Even if there was, it would not be something that could be done in a short period of time.
Zhu Xi was numb!
This was all for nothing.
For now, whether it was a hot air balloon or an airship, they were all just decorations. They looked envious and could not be used at all.
Not only that, Zhu Xiong also thought of more.
Even if Zhu Xiong could solve the fuel problem, the problem of flying was still a huge problem.
How could an airship which could carry 1,000 - 10,000 tons of cargo be driven by one person?
The driving skills, direction control, and altitude control required inside were all difficult problems.
Zhu Xiong suddenly realized that he was being a little whimsical.
His steps were too big and he could not keep up with the rhythm at all.
After thinking through these points, Zhu Rong was a little uninterested. He had wasted so much of his feelings for nothing!
He decisively put the hot air balloon back into his Backpack and returned to the military camp.
It was already past midnight when they returned to the military camp.
Zhu Rong looked at the sky and thought for a while. He decided to activate the system again.
The speed of the army had to be resolved.
Otherwise, this northern expedition with the army would be meaningless to Zhu Xiong.
However, this time, Zhu Rong was not prepared to make anything particularly advanced. This meal still had to be eaten bit by bit, and the road had to be taken step by step.
Ding! Host, please choose your simulated profession.
"Cartmaker!"
After paying another 1,000 reputation points, the life simulation system was activated again.
You were born into a craftsman's family in a feudal society.
Ever since you were young, you've had a strong interest in forging carriages.
At the age of three, you began to learn carpentry from your father.
At the age of ten, your cooking skills have already surpassed your father's.
At the age of 15, you were valued by the Mo family and entered the Mo family's workshop to study.
【……】
At 50, you created a large transportation carriage that can travel 200 miles a day.
60 years old, you improved this carriage to 250 miles per day.
At the age of sixty-five, you contracted the plague. In the same year, your illness worsened and you unfortunately died.
You're dead!
The life simulation has ended. You can keep one of the following options.
1. All items created in this life simulation.
Second, in this life simulation, a lifetime of horse-carriage building experience.
Third, in this life simulation, the wisdom of a lifetime.
This time, Zhu Xiong didn't choose the real object after he woke up. Instead, he chose to create experience.
In the next moment, countless horse-carriage manufacturing experiences flooded into Zhu Xiong's mind.
Zhu Rong's eyes gradually lit up.
Originally, he had simulated the life of a carmaker with the mentality of giving it a try, but he did not expect to have an unexpected surprise.
Zhu Xiong discovered this from his experience in building cars.
The craftsmanship of the ancient craftsmen was really not bad.
Take this life simulation for example.
A large carriage that could carry half a ton of goods was brought out by him.
The key was that the transportation speed was not only stable, but also made use of bearing technology to make this large carriage light and fast. Even if it was filled with half a ton of baggage, it would not affect the horse's normal speed.
Of course, if it exceeded this weight, it would not work.
In actual use, it could only carry 400 kilograms of baggage, so the weight of the coachman had to be taken into account.
But even so, it was still very impressive.
The average speed of an ordinary horse was forty miles per hour.
According to the endurance of ordinary horses, which rested every six hours, they could cover a distance of 240 miles in half a day.
If they could change horses midway, they could run at least 480 miles in a day.
The key point was that the manufacturing method of this carriage was not complicated. As long as there were enough craftsmen, under Zhu Rong's guidance, it would only take three days to mass produce it.
Thinking of this, Zhu Xiong finally smiled.
As long as they could get these carriages, their supply camp could travel day and night.
They only needed to arrange for a change of horses along the way, and they would be able to reach Yanmen Pass in five to six days.
Even with the three days of manufacturing time, it would not take more than ten days to reach Yanmen Pass.
Perhaps he could reach Yanmen Pass before Xu Da.
Xu Da brought fifty thousand elite cavalry under his command, so the marching speed was naturally not slow.
However, fifty thousand men were a huge expenditure, and they needed to stop along the way to resupply and prepare.
Moreover, these fifty thousand elite cavalry needed to maintain their energy and be ready to go out at any time.
Therefore, the speed of the army would not be very fast.
Therefore, Zhu Xiong felt that he still had enough time to complete a surprise counterattack.
Moreover, it was not as troublesome to make such a carriage as an airship.
There was no need to arrange his background.
It would not cause any shocking consequences.
However, the materials used to build the carriage…
Zhu Rong looked in the direction of the capital.
Looks like I can only ask Second Brother for help!
