Daqin Engineering Corps

As he spoke, he looked back at the carriage curiously, like looking at a monster.

Shen Bing ignored Yang Ting's surprised look, and just cast a questioning look at Chao Xun.

Xun had to be convinced, he nodded, a little embarrassed:

"Just do it your way!"

"Tie twine to the wheels!"

All the craftsmen burst into cheers immediately, as if they had won a battle.

Chapter 11 Uphill Downhill

Many readers have objections to the principle of tying the hemp rope in these chapters. The principle has been explained in the author's statement in the previous chapter.

If you still don't understand, just think about one question: Why are the wheels of handcarts and trolleys all over the world engraved with patterns to increase friction?Are the cart factories all over the world doing it wrong?Should the wheels be as smooth as possible?

........................

The workload of tying hemp rope is obviously much smaller than that of pushing a cart.

In just half an hour, the carriages were ready.

In fact, while the craftsmen were tying the hemp ropes, the carriages were already going up the steep slope one after another.

Although not every car can go up smoothly.

But it is very safe to add three or five people to push the cart.

There is no need for craftsmen to do this, and the strong women under Yang Ting can easily complete it.

Xun was worried that there would be troubles in the follow-up, so he brought a few people to Yang Ting cautiously.

"Captain!"

"It shouldn't be difficult for the carriage to go up the steep slope after tying the hemp rope!"

"I don't know if I can wait..."

Standing high on the horse, Yang Ting glanced at Xunshen and Shen Bing behind her, and snorted.

"It counts that you have some skills!"

"but……"

"Why wasn't this method used earlier?"

"It also saves me from suffering from the wind and rain all the way!"

Xun was taken aback, then hurriedly answered.

"Report to the Captain!"

"This method is only just thought of by the villain!"

"Otherwise, is there any reason not to say it?"

As he spoke, he turned around and gave Shen Bing a wink.

How can Shen Bing not know what this means, and he clapped his hands and replied:

"That's what the master said!"

"If I knew this method earlier, how could I be so stupid as to push the cart?"

As he spoke, Shen Bing lifted his underwear.

"Look, Captain, you're covered in mud."

"This, and this..."

Yang Ting didn't seem to want to listen to Shen Bing's explanation, so she waved her hand to interrupt Shen Bing's words.

"That's it!"

"You guys are considered meritorious, and the captain will not pursue it anymore!"

"Get busy with your military affairs!"

"Don't delay the construction period and count it on the captain of the school!"

Xun Rufeng was granted an amnesty, and immediately agreed with a "promise" and led everyone to leave.

Only Shen Bing didn't know good from bad, walked a few steps and then turned around.

"Captain!"

"We have already transported the carriage up the steep slope."

"There will be nothing for us in the future, right?"

Yang Ting reined in her horse and took a few steps lightly, looked at the orderly convoy around and replied:

"It's nothing to do with you!"

Xunsheng was afraid that it would cause trouble, so he secretly pulled Shen Bing.

But Shen Bing still added a sentence.

"If there are any problems in the future..."

"I don't have to take responsibility for waiting, do I?"

Yang Ting frowned impatiently:

"How can you be so wordy!"

"Are you still worried that the school's lieutenant will not succeed if he doesn't believe it?"

Shen Bing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, saying:

"That's good!"

"This subordinate is just confirming!"

"Sorry to bother you, goodbye!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Xun couldn't help muttering a few times, complaining that Shen Bing was just looking for trouble.

Shen Bing didn't explain, just nodded in agreement.

A group of craftsmen were finally able to return to the gap in the city wall to "move bricks".

Cang flattered Shen Bing violently.

"Brother, I knew you had a way!"

"It's amazing!"

"A few lengths of twine can solve a big problem!"

"This can almost be said to have saved the lives of more than a hundred people in my 'gunner'!"

……

Shen Bing is also used to Cang's nagging, so he just ignores it or responds with a few casual words to deal with it.

The fat man looked at Shen Bing with a look of astonishment.

When moving stones, they always rushed to contribute, for fear of exhausting Shen Bing.

In fact, other craftsmen are similar, always taking care of Shen Bing intentionally or unintentionally.

If there is easy work such as beating rammed earth, let Shen Bing do it by default.

Therefore, Shen Bing's work is relatively easy.

On the contrary, the fat man seemed obsessed with what happened just now.

Ask as soon as you sit down to rest.

"Gong Cheng!"

"The subordinates are puzzled!"

"Why can you go up a steep slope by adding a few sections of hemp rope to the carriage!"

"And the friction, the roughness... what is it?"

This made Shen Bing a little embarrassed.

If you really want to explain it, it involves the issue of gravity, and then there is the decomposition of force and so on.

These things seem simple, but many problems arise.

And then those many questions lead to more questions...

So Shen Bing simply didn't explain.

"Even if you tell me, you don't understand!"

"Let's learn a few more years before we talk!"

"Work hard, and one day you will learn these skills too!"

Fatty Tun was stupefied for a moment, but he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard the end.

"Dangdang... Seriously?"

"I, too... can I have the same... skills as Gong Cheng?"

"Thank you Gong...Gong Cheng for your teaching! The sense of subordinate... I am grateful!"

Xun didn't care about these things.

Perhaps it was because he had repeatedly objected to the fact that he was proven wrong.

This made him feel a little bit embarrassed as a master.

What Shen Bing didn't know was that Xun already regretted it in his heart at this moment:

"If I knew it earlier, I should have pretended to be noble. If this guy wants to try it, let him try it!"

"What does success or failure have to do with me?"

"It's not like I can't step down like I am now!"

"But... who would have thought that a few lengths of hemp rope would solve the problem?"

"It's all like a magic trick!"

"In the future, we will have to grow up!"

"It's so hard to have such an apprentice!"

……

At this time, Shen Bing came forward, holding a clean bandage in his hand.

"master!"

"I'll help you bandage the wound!"

"If too much water enters the wound, it will not be good to fester!"

After a "hmm", his face softened a little.

After all, he is his apprentice, and his apprentice has done meritorious service, so he has a bright face as a master.

What's more, this apprentice is so sensible.

Unlike that Cang...

Thinking of this, Xun glanced at Cang who was struggling to deal with the millet porridge, and couldn't help but let out a "hum".

Cang shivered for no reason.

While Shen Bing was bandaging the wound, Xunjiu said earnestly.

"You don't know how to measure!"

"Complete the captain's mission!"
