Chapter 701: Bug (middle)

The station was surrounded by a few simple walls, without any decoration, but with a white coating.
However, the wall is very tall and extremely wide, and you can see the edge at a glance, but as long as people with clear eyes can see how strict this so-called ``station'' is protected.
Caesar XIII called them to declare their sovereignty here-this belongs to the empire and belongs to the emperor.
The front hall of the station is not very tall by comparison, it is just a little spacious, even the ‘platform’.
The only thing that could marshal Marshal Wendes was the iron monster lying quietly between the two platforms!
The old man straightened the lumbar vertebrae that had never ricketed, stretched his neck, and looked over the top of everyone's head, ignoring their whispers, and fell on the'monster' made of steel.
"Grandfather! Grandfather!"
Feeling the sleeves pulled, Marshal Wendes awakened from the sudden and looked down.
His grandson grumbled and said, "We can't see it!"
Looking around, I found that my granddaughter was also a little unhappy. Field Marshal Wendes frowned and raised his head to the crowd in front of him, screaming: "Get away!"
Just like the people who stood at the end of the team, the people in front of Marshal Wendes turned back angry, but soon, some of them recognized this old and strong soldier, and then stopped an unnecessary dispute. .
When the old lion king with hair and mustache passed by them, many people showed a flinching expression.
Although this old lion no longer holds the important position in the army, after all, he persuaded all the strong men in the army with a mortal body, and finally sat in the position of marshal, the strong man is particularly powerful.
Not to mention that he is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and he is taller than most of the people present. Looking at his seventies and eighties but his still strong appearance, I know that I am afraid that I will not die in more than ten years.
With his grandchildren walking through the crowd, Marshal Wendes went to the front row. This time, he was finally able to get a full view of the mechanical monster.
After seeing the novelty, the child could not help being restless. Whether it was grandchild or granddaughter, it was the same. Marshal Wendez simply let go of his hand, and after raising his hand to salute the emperor, the emperor who was looking at Zheng Su As well as my grandchildren, I approached the guardrail beside the platform and watched the so-called'steam locomotive'.
He didn't pay attention to the sour words of those people who were pretending to be reserved. The noble etiquette is a good thing, but even those who can't restrain their desires, what is the use of learning this? There is no use other than highlighting yourself as a superior!
Marshal Wendes scoffed at the set of nobles, because he was born in a traditional knighthood, his father was only a lifelong baron, and now everything he has worked hard for himself, as well as the set that his children learned Quite a bit, since the grandchildren came to him, he never let them deliberately learn these, if you want to learn, do not want to learn.
After throwing these misunderstandings behind, listening to Sun Zi's cheerful shouting, Marshal Wendes calmly observed carefully.
When he looked closely, there was someone in the crowd who just stood out from the crowd, and after the corner of his eye caught the figure of the person, he hurriedly stopped the person, "Gregory, stop!"
He still likes this kid very much. If it's not quite the same age as his granddaughter, he really wants this kid to be his grandson-in-law.
Gregory, who was about to pull the guardrail into the front of the car and asked how to check the progress of the process, was suddenly called, turned his head in surprise, and saw the gentle smile of the old marshal.
Helping each other with Calvin, Calvin smiled slightly, turned his head to raise the hat to the old marshal, and pulled the guardrail into the locomotive.
"Gregory, you came just right!"
At this time, Caesar XIII also noticed the existence of Gregorian, pointing at the steam locomotive and laughing: "Come and introduce our locomotives to ladies and gentlemen!"
Gregorian was a little helpless, but looking at Caesar XIII's bright and sweaty face, but still glorified, he knew he couldn't refuse.
Their emperor has been waiting for this day for a long time. Since they started this plan last year, he has made plans. Now is the time for the great show, Gregory has no reason to refuse.
With a sigh, Gregorian took over the "Magic Stone" handed over from Caesar XIII, and began to introduce the efficacy of the steam locomotive aloud-they had tested it by themselves and had authentic effects.
His voice overshadowed everyone's whispering, and the nobles were calmed down by his "big words".
Although they told themselves in the bottom of their hearts that this is impossible, but in front of Caesar XIII, the rumored rigorous manufacturing minister really lied?
Calvin, standing in the carriage and looking left and right, listened to the sound coming from outside the car and couldn't help laughing.
He had already guessed that after Gregorian finished speaking, a lot of self-intelligent people would jump out and question his scene. It was clear that the aristocracy did not understand everything. It was touted by the people who thought he really understood everything. .
Shaking his head and throwing these cluttered thoughts out of his head, Calvin touched the seat next to him and looked at the wooden board nailed to the seat.
This is a car used to carry people. As for the car used to carry goods, they are also prepared. If they are needed, they can be directly disassembled.
Today is going to be a ‘commissioning ceremony’. The reason why so many nobles are invited to observe the ceremony is to pick out some people, let them ‘test ride’, and let them experience the thrill of flying.
There are many towns along the road, because locomotives also need to be supplied, whether it is diet or coal.
This time it will be a journey of more than ten days, starting from the middle of the empire to the northern city, and then resting there for a few days and then returning to the imperial capital. The time required is almost a month, which was a speed that was unimaginable in the past.
The empire is too large, which makes it difficult for His Majesty's orders to spread. If you don't use magic, the news will arrive in the northern city in about half a year.
The news is still so, not to mention supplies and the military?
Basically, all parts of the empire are fighting each other, and the military systems between the parts are not compatible because the territory of the empire is too large.
But with the steam locomotive, everything is different!
While Calvin was still checking the maintenance progress, outside the car, Gregory's introduction was nearing completion.
Even Caesar XIII was somewhat stunned by Gregorian words, because in Gregorian mouth, the performance of this steam locomotive is much better than previously predicted.
There are nearly a thousand people on one trip. If it is freight, it may be more.
Marshal Wendes on the side had glared his eyes, because he was also like Caesar XIII, knowing that Gregorian was not a person who would exaggerate the facts, and the nobles of the entire imperial capital knew what the minister of the manufacturing department was like Rigorous, even to the harsh level.
If he can have such a ‘treasure~EbookFREE.me~ during his appointment, then he may be able to advance the front for hundreds of miles, and then completely occupy the field to make it a new territory of the empire!
It's a pity, what a pity...
The old marshal could not help but bow his head and sigh, which is really a pity.
After lowering his head, he saw the eyes of his grandchildren, and the old marshal thought, could he try this... a steam locomotive?
His mouth opened, and the old man just wanted to say something, and a voice of doubt came out from the crowd: "His Gregory, it's not that we don't trust you, it's just because of this kind of thing, we can really run so fast, so Long?"
as predicted!
Gregory glanced at the crowd and failed to find the nobleman, but he still said plainly according to the plan: "This gentleman, your questioning is not unreasonable. Since that is the case, would you like to experience it for yourself? Today's opening This is the last step of the ceremony. It takes about a month to travel from the capital to the north. Is there any husband or wife who wants to give it a try?"
