The Strongest Lu Bu's Sweeping Thousands of Armies

Chapter 306 Tie Their Lives Together

Zhao Yun and Tai Shici rescued Lu Su and his escorted family members, and the two accompanied them to Jianye.

Sure enough, Xu Chu was not in a hurry to leave.

He also planned to wait for the two of them to leave, and while Lu Su had not entered Jianye, he would lead a thousand soldiers to charge and kill as many family members of Xuzhou officials as he could.

After all, the task Cao Cao gave him was not to bring these people back alive, but to kill them.

The calculation was not bad, but Xu Chu soon discovered that Zhao Yun and Tai Shici had no intention of leaving.

They accompanied Lu Su to move on.

After a fight with Tai Shici, Xu Chu knew that neither of them could be easily taken down by him.

Knowing that there was no possibility of intercepting and killing Xuzhou's family members, Xu Chu had no choice but to turn around and leave with his men.

When Zhao Yun and Tai Shici drove Xu Chu away, they sent people back to Pengcheng to report to Lu Bu.

The two had already sent the family members of Xuzhou to Jianye City, and the messenger who delivered the letter to Lu Bu had not arrived in Pengcheng.

When he got the news, Lu Bu was busy at the mouth of the well, asking the craftsmen to install the newly made fans.

In the era without electricity, fans can only work by shaking them.

A large blower was placed at the mouth of the well, and a craftsman held the handle with both hands and shook it vigorously.

As he shook the handle, the blades of the fan rotated rapidly, and the strong wind immediately blew towards the tunnel leading to the underground.

When the messenger was talking to Lu Bu, everyone standing behind him took two steps back to avoid hearing what they shouldn't.

Only when he signaled the messenger to back down did everyone dare to step forward.

Coming to the front of the fan, feeling the strong wind, a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Bu's mouth: "This kind of fan can really bring fresh air to the bottom of the mine."

The wind power of the fan is indeed much stronger than the wind bag used earlier.

Except for the one at the mouth of the mine, Lu Bu had someone install fans in the tunnels of the entire mine.

With the fan, the ventilation of the mine is indeed much stronger than before, but it also requires more manpower.

Lu Bu was satisfied with the performance of the fan, and of course everyone agreed and flattered without losing the opportunity.

"Chuhou made a fan for the mine. From now on, the craftsmen will no longer feel bored underground." The mine steward flattered Lu Bu and said, "Everyone in the mine does not miss the benefits of Chuhou."

"It's just that I want to take advantage of me because I have a fan?" Lu Bu said, "There are many problems that need to be solved in the mine, and the fan is just the most urgent one."

He said to the steward: "I will find some blacksmiths to come to see me later, I have to make some usable brackets for this place."

The coal in Xuzhou is underground, and when Lu Bu discovered coal on the surface, it was just by chance.

For the kind of coal that can be extracted from the surface, Shanxi has the most in the north, while in Xuzhou in the east, coal mines need to be mined underground in order to send high-quality coal to the ground.

Since it is working underground, the roof and the roadway walls on both sides must be under strong pressure.

The supports previously used in the mine were wooden stakes.

Wooden piles can be used to support the house, but it is difficult to meet the requirements when placed underground to support the roof.

To support the underground roof, it is best to use hydraulic supports.

Fortunately, Lu Bu has a little understanding of the working principle of the hydraulic system, and also knows how to make the simplest hydraulic support tools.

He wanted to find a few blacksmiths in order to arrange for the blacksmiths to build the hydraulic support he designed.

A few days ago, Lu Bu's mind was all on the fan, and he didn't take much care of other things.

The idea of ​​the hydraulic support was only put on the table by him after the fan was formed.

The people around him were all born in this era, and only he has the cognition after 2000, and also understands some craftsmanship that is many years more advanced than this era.

There are many technologies that have been circling in Lu Bu's mind, no matter which one gets this era, it will play a decisive subversive role.

It's a pity that Lu Bu is just a person, and he is not a scientist who is proficient in scientific research.

What he can build is nothing more than some things with relatively small technological content.

For example, an airplane, he can only use the principle of gliding to build a glider, but it is impossible to build a jet plane, and he is not even able to build a propeller-powered plane.

If jet aircraft could be built in this day and age...

Whenever thinking of these things, Lu Bu hated himself a little.

Before coming to this era, why not learn more things.

If I had learned more about mechanical construction at that time, even if I couldn't build an airplane, I could at least build a simple generator and the like.

To be able to bring electricity to this era, maybe there is no need for him to go south and north at all, and all the heroes in the world should bow their heads.

Lu Bu knew very well that these were just his imagination.

In the past era, he did not learn these technologies, nor did he know anything about how to generate electricity.

So when the coal mine was equipped with fans, all he could produce were manual fans operated by manpower.

It can only work by people's shaking. Once no external force is applied to the rocker, the fan will stop working immediately.

Accompanied by everyone, he stood at the mouth of the well for a while, looking at the fans at work, Lu Bu explained to the steward: "Remember, the fans must be controlled by people at any time. The mine is getting deeper and deeper. Sending air from the well, sooner or later there will be a batch of craftsmen suffocating below. If the things I told you must be avoided happen, none of you who are in charge will be able to escape.”

Lu Bu's words were serious, and the steward was already covered in cold sweat, so he quickly hunched over and replied, "Don't worry, Marquis Chu, we will never let the fan stop for a moment."

The attitude of being in charge made Lu Bu see that he would never dare to slack off.

People cherish their lives. Although the steward who manages the coal mine can ignore the lives of others, he will never despise himself.

Even if they wanted to let the craftsmen's lives be involved with these stewards, they would absolutely refuse to do so.

As long as the management puts their minds on the coal mine, even in the era of backward technology, very bad vicious accidents will not happen.

After explaining to the steward a few things that must be paid attention to, Lu Bu greeted Sun Ce to leave the wellhead.

Accompanied by Lu Bu until it was not too close to the mouth of the well, Sun Ce asked, "Marquis Chu, did the messenger who came earlier..."

"Didn't you hear?" Lu Bu turned to look at him and asked back.

Sun Ce grinned in embarrassment: "The messenger is reporting to the Marquis of Chu, and I am listening from the sidelines. It is inevitable that there will be something wrong."

"Sure enough, Cao Cao photographed Xu Zhongkang to intercept our family members." Lu Bu said, "If I hadn't arranged for Zilong and Ziyi to protect us secretly, I'm afraid this time there would be a catastrophe."

Hearing that Cao Cao really sent Xu Chu to intercept their family members, Sun Ce frowned: "Where is that Xu Chu? I'll go and kill him!"
