Chapter 408: The First Show of the Steam Train(2/2)
...
After the steam train left, Mo Zizai and Tao Qiong returned to the Military Weapon Bureau and waited for news. As for Deng Zhi and his friends who were afraid of any problems with the train, they followed Zhou Qi together.
Zhou Qi and his team on the train would send him back every time they went to a place and kept informing him. Obviously, there was no problem with the train, and the speed was similar to Deng Zhi and his friends predicted. By night, they were almost about to arrive in Pingzhou County.
The train that was first released in the city caused a great sensation in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Its huge size, unique sound, and extremely fast speed will attract people's attention no matter where it goes.
If it weren't for the construction of the railway, officials would have greeted the people along the railway, saying that the railway track was used by the Military Weapon Bureau, I'm afraid these people would have knelt down and worshiped this miraculous scene.
But even so, the appearance of the steam train shocked the people of Dazhou, and even some officials watched it silently for a long time.
"This is really a magical weapon!"
When building railways before, many officials said that this thing was useless and costly to the people and was useless. It was just taken from Mo Zizai's power, and no one dared to say it clearly.
When they saw this steam train, their previous doubts were instantly swallowed by themselves.
"How could there be such a thing in this world?"
Some officials who have been to the battlefield immediately thought of his greatest use when they saw this thing, "With something, the army will no longer be short of food and grass."
Before the troops move, food and grass will come first.
In the era of cold weapons, the most important thing in war is logistics. If there is no food and grass, no matter how elite the army is, it will not be able to fight.
