Chapter 98 Iron Chains: Let's Connect All(2/3)

The "baffle" of every two sidecars serves as one side of the square.

Eight baffles surrounded all the infantry.

"this…"

This sudden change made Guan Xing stunned. The charge of the war horses was completely useless for a while, and all the knights could only rein in their horses.

If he didn't rein in his horse, both the man and the horse would hit the barrier.

For a moment, all the cavalry were stunned on the spot, and the wooden sticks in their hands could only subconsciously hit the fender of the sidecar.

Unexpectedly, the baffle was as solid as a rock, and it just stood there. No matter how Guan Xing and a group of knights kept slashing the wooden sticks, pushing and squeezing, it still remained motionless!

It was like a heavy punch hitting cotton, no... it was like a heavy punch hitting a steel plate that was heavier than the fist.

All the knights' hands were numb when they waved!

Looking back at Guan Xing, he was confused...

This has nothing to do with formation or bravery. The barrier in front of us is so towering, so solid, and surrounded on all sides. Where should we fight?

How do you get around this barrier and go in to hit someone?

This became a huge problem.

It seems that Guan Xing is not the only one who is in trouble, everyone is in trouble.

It's like... like the cavalry who were originally good at field combat suddenly encountered a city in the wild. The towering barriers were the city walls. If they wanted to annihilate the enemy, they were forced to... switch from field combat to fortified warfare.

And what the cavalry is least good at is fighting tough battles!



——“Let’s connect them all!”

——"Awesome, my sister!"

Guan Lin was stunned by the scene in front of him.

Not that I was surprised that the sidecar blocked the cavalry charge.

In fact, this is to be expected.

What amazed Guan Lin was that... the third sister could deliberately make the formation of the chariots look chaotic, and then lead the enemy to underestimate them... After getting closer, she immediately erected the planks of these side carriages.

If it were on the battlefield, with this move alone, the third sister Guan Yinping would have won.

Because, at such a close distance, with the opponent's stunned effort, Zhuge Liannu continuously shot out from the "small holes" in the baffle.

At such a close distance, and the opponent stopped for such a moment, all the knights had turned into hedgehogs.

Where is the life left?

In fact.

During the Ming Dynasty, Qi Jiguang used this technique when he was stationed in the north to fight against the Tatars.

Faced with the mobility and impact of the Tatar cavalry, Qi Jiguang used units such as chariots.

Specifically, it is this sidecar with a screen-like wooden board on one side to withstand the impact of the Tatar cavalry.

You know, one sidecar has no power at all, but many sidecars line up horizontally. This is the "iron cable chain" on the flat ground, and it is the "Steel Great Wall" cast in a small area.

It can firmly guard the infantry within it.

only…

There are some differences between the chariots in Qi Jiguang's era and today.

The difference is that Qi Jiguang used these small holes in the screen-like wooden boards to allow the infantrymen to hold firearms and hide behind the vehicles to aim and fire outside.

Guan Lin had no firearms, so he could only temporarily use a repeating crossbow instead.

Anyway, they are shooting outwards with furtive glances...

No damage output!

The effect of this "Old Six Style" style of play is naturally the same.

This is equivalent to the so-called "step-tank collaboration" and "step-tank collaboration" on the battlefield in later generations!

The sidecar is equivalent to a tank, the wooden planks are bunkers, and the repeating crossbows are artillery shells...

Facing the cavalry, under the protection of this bunker, the infantry has a lot more space to maneuver!

really…

Just when Guan Lin thought of this, the situation on the "battlefield" changed again.

I saw that Guan Xing and a group of knights had no choice but to chop wooden sticks on the wooden board.

Countless wooden sticks have been poked out of the holes in the board...

This is a counterattack!

Because they were so close, the attack was sudden. In just an instant, Guan Xing and his cavalry team turned over and fell to the ground...

On body…

The area hit by the wooden stick was burning and painful!

But this pain is nothing at all. Every fallen knight knows that if this is on the battlefield, then... they will never stand up again!

Seeing this scene…

Guan Yu over there was still in deep surprise...

No, he was in deep shock.

Lu Xun, who was on the side of the car, couldn't help but open his mouth: "It's amazing... it's amazing... this sidecar is amazing!"

"Bo Yan... Boyan..." As if she thought her husband's words were too loud, Sun Ru quickly pulled down Lu Xun's sleeves to indicate that he shouldn't be so arrogant.

But how could Lu Xun contain the excitement in his heart?

He turned around and put his hand on Sun Ru's shoulder with great excitement. He lowered his voice as much as possible, but the throbbing in his heart was beyond words.

"Madam, madam..."

"If... if during the battle at Xiaoyaojin, my Jiangdong disciples had this sidecar, then... how could Zhang Wenyuan be so arrogant?"

"How could Zhang Liao be so powerful that he shocked Xiaoyaojin? How could his name... make my little kid from Jiangdong stop crying?"

Lu Xun’s voice was extremely heavy…

It seems to be full of great sorrow and regret.

It's like when I was in despair, I suddenly saw a glimmer of hope and suddenly saw the light!

My voice is already a little hoarse...

But Lu Xun's throbbing mood couldn't be suppressed at all.

"Bo Yan..."

Sun Ru still couldn't calm down Lu Xun.

In fact, any child from Jiangdong, any child from Jiangdong who was beaten by Shanxi people and "crying for father and mother" is full of resentment, but dare not "shout loudly" to Shanxi people...

When they see the hope of being able to fight against the northern cavalry and the 'nightmare' Zhang Wenyuan, they will not be able to calm down or even breathe!

"Madam, I must... the one who buys this side car must be me, it must be Jiangdong, I... no, it's Soochow who must... Soochow must buy this side car."

Lu Xun's hand on Sun Ru's shoulder suddenly tightened.

If it weren't for where he was now, there wouldn't be many people around him.

Then there must be... there must be people who regard Lu Xun as a bully who bullies women, and then speak out for justice.

It was rare for Sun Ru to endure Lu Xun's power while still maintaining her composure.

He advised Lu Xun, "It seems... this sidecar is not complicated. If we make a drawing based on today's vision and let Jiangdong's workshop copy it, wouldn't... wouldn't it save a lot of money?"

Sun Ru considered it from a rational point of view and from the point of view of saving money...

There is nothing wrong with this idea.

However, Lu Xun shook his head heavily.

He has excellent eyesight, so he has naturally found the clues about this sidecar.

He pointed to the car formation on the battlefield and explained: "Did you see it? That is not an ordinary wooden board... Its interior has been meticulously arranged, so that no matter how much the opponent pushes or hits it, it remains firm..."

"Only special craftsmanship can make...such a stable and hard baffle. If we in Jiangdong imitate it and copy the tiger...at best, we can only imitate the east and learn from Handan...in the end...on the contrary..."

Lu Xun wanted to say that, but in the end, he shot someone in the foot.

But before he said this, Sun Ru still questioned: "It's just chopping with ordinary wooden sticks, not axes, swords and spears... How can we tell that his baffle is solid and stable?"

Lu Xun was about to explain...

But when he saw Guan Xing lying on the ground "on the battlefield", he angrily got on his horse.

He was angry...
