Chapter 288 Shun the donkey and the big water bed
Shi Lei put two snaps on the snowboard on his snow boots, took out two slightly longer bamboo skiing balls, and demonstrated on the spot how to slide on these two inconspicuous gadgets.
Shi Lei, who lived in a northern city, naturally had no shortage of artificial or natural ski resorts. When he was a child, he could have fun playing on the snow. After he grew up, he relied on this good skiing technique, but he really attracted the attention of many girls, especially those girls from other places who had just arrived at the ski resort to play.
Unfortunately, she couldn't get her girlfriend with this ability. However, thinking about Cheng Chuyue's goddess-like appearance and domineering figure, Shi Lei felt that she had no loss when she waited for two lifetimes, not to mention that there were two sisters Yu Linglong, and this pair of chocolate beauties were waiting for her to pick them. God treated her well.
"Isn't this equivalent to putting two bamboo rafts on your feet? No wonder you can slide on the snow." The person who was familiar with the goods immediately understood the principle of the snowboard's working.
"Yes, that's what the kid thought of, their principles are the same." Shi Lei said while sliding.
"In this way, moving forward in the snow is no longer a problem. If you feel that the speed is too slow, you can completely let your mounts drag themselves in front of you, which will not only relieve their burdens, but also make us feel much easier.
With just a little force, you can drag it." After Shi Lei finished speaking, he waved his hand and called the hero over.
The generals and schoolmen around subconsciously took a step back because this guy was too big and his power was too powerful.
It had long been tied with reins and other things on its body. It hung its waist on Xiongda, which was also standing out. Its strength was quite strong and its feet were wide enough, and it dragged Xiongda around and ran around.
Gradually accelerated, the final speed was so fast, and sliding with yourself was definitely not the same time.
This demonstration is simple and clear. No matter how weak the horse is in the snow, it must be stronger than the giant mastiff. As long as it can run by itself, it will be fine to pull the knight that was originally riding on it, and the speed will definitely not be slow.
Among the 100,000 people in the entire Tang Dynasty Expeditionary Army, there are probably not many people with the size of Xiongda and weight. Since they can drag him away, there is no reason not to pull others.
"Hey, this thing is great. With this thing, we'll be much faster when we're on the snow."
"Yes, why didn't I think of this move? It's still the kid Shi Tou who has a solution." The generals and schoolmen around were amazed when they saw the scene in front of them.
"And from this, the boy thought of something new, I called this thing sled."
After Shi Lei finished speaking, he greeted him again. Xiong Er, who was also as strong as a mountain, stood at the tail of the sled, drove away the thinnest war horse under Shi Lei, and ran to everyone quickly.
While holding on to the war horse, he also stepped on something similar to a brake under his feet. As the snowflakes were flying, a sled filled with supplies stopped after only a short distance.
"You can see that this sled can not only pull people, but also haul a lot of things.
Even when the long journey was on the road, the soldiers lay on top, covered them with a cold bed, and could sleep all the way, and they could definitely maintain their physical strength.
Just ride your own war horse before the war begins." Shi Lei said with a smile on his face.
The laughter and discussions of the generals and schoolmen around him suddenly became more enthusiastic.
Just imagine that you can ride a warm sled and rush to the battlefield leisurely and comfortably. After eating and drinking, you can steam up on the war horses and chop off those enemies who are as cold as a turtle. This comfort is simply too happy.
Therefore, the cheers suddenly erupted. The generals and schoolmen who were originally frowning turned red now, as if they had already won one after another through this method.
"Is this snowboard and sledging, is it difficult?" Li Jing, who kept touching his beard and laughing with satisfaction, came up and grasped the point of the problem.
"It's not difficult." Shi Lei shook his head and said affirmatively.
They are all the most primitive things, and they are not intended to be made into high-end products of composite materials in later generations. They also have to take into account flexibility, rigidity, wear resistance and lightness. The current requirement is that as long as it can be used.
"This snowboard just needs two similar whole wooden boards and bend it with hot air. Of course, it is better to use solid and elastic wood." Shi Lei picked up the snowboard under his feet and demonstrated it to everyone.
"It's okay to just nail a few snaps according to your feet, or it's okay to do the same thing. This should not be difficult for the military craftsmen." Li Jing and the generals and officers couldn't help but nodded again.
"As for this sled, it is actually the same way, but the boy has fixed a lot of horsehair under the board, so that it will be more unobstructed when moving forward, and when climbing the hill, there is a certain resistance and will not fall off.
This sled needs to carry more weight, so it needs to be done. In fact, simple wooden boards can also be done."
Shi Lei easily lifted the heavy sled with one hand, gently placed it on the ground, pointing to the mottled bottom, and explaining it to everyone.
The horse's hair actually has a certain hardness, so the horse is slippery when touching, but it becomes a bit sticky when touching against it.
In fact, donkeys are similar, so there is the saying that donkeys are the same.
This method was in his previous life. When Shi Lei was playing in Northeast Nagada, he heard from the old hunter who was responsible for controlling the sled. It came in handy at this time.
"Okay, we don't lack these things, including horse hair. Fortunately, Sima, who is in charge of military capital, is a stingy guy. He can't even give up horse hair, so he's used it now.
Hahaha..." Li Jing said happily after hearing Shi Lei's words. Naturally, there was a burst of laughter in agreement around him.
"I didn't say anything. Let the craftsmen in the army step up the production. The more they are, the better. We must also try our best to prepare for the other large armies.
Now, don’t be idle either. Just organize your elite cavalry and practice your skiing skills first.
Although this kid Shi Tou is very good at playing, it’s hard to say whether you can play around with it.” Li Jing’s observation was always very careful and always pointed out the key points to the point.
"It may have to fall a few times at the beginning, but this skiing is actually similar to riding a horse. I believe that with the intelligence and talent of our Tang army soldiers, it is still easy to master it, and at most a few days of effort will be enough."
Shi Lei said with a smile, but that smile was a little bad at all.
It’s really a pleasure to watch people fall and so on. Unfortunately, there is no camera now, so I can’t record these wonderful moments. I don’t even have the help of embarrassing people in the future.
With Li Jing's order, the happy skiing study began. Unfortunately, Shi Lei could not see the embarrassment of many generals and schools. He had to continue to monitor the movements of Jie Li Khan. Who knew whether this guy who was unwilling to fail would have any trouble during the so-called stage of surrender.
However, for the sake of reconnaissance, Shi Lei chose the means of transportation not as he demonstrated, but the dog sled was used, and the snow mastiff with the best hidden effect.
As for the big brown bear, it must be impossible to keep it with you, although Shi Lei likes this person very much, and heats a large water bed.
But its power is too strong, and the enemy's war horses can be felt from a distance, which is not conducive to Shi Lei's investigation of the enemy situation nearby.
