Chapter 501 Functional Chariot

"Put on horses and try to see if the hard stone will overturn the car." Li Dedao.

It is easy to overturn after a carriage hits something, and the Turks have developed this thing with a physical bearing as the key to the finale, and use their own weight to avoid overturning when hitting it.

But in this way, the speed will decrease and the horses are needed. In fact, in this way, the extended weapons on the bearings will not be used to fight the enemy. The horse will run alone, and wearing a layer of armor is enough to make the opponent unable to resist.

Since the Turks have developed such a thing, they have to be careful.

Li De was also afraid that the vanguard soldiers who went to the expedition would suffer, so he thought about developing a solution as soon as possible.

The Lu brothers prepared multiple obstacles such as stones, forage and other obstacles in the open space. After the chariot was ready, they asked the fully armed soldiers to drive the chariot and rush around the field.

After a moment, the field was in a mess. The stones were smashed to pieces after impact. Their power was terrifying and they were definitely a weapon to rush to the formation.

"What an amazing impact force, is this the chariot from a hundred years ago?" Li Shimin exclaimed.

Li Shimin read a lot of books and still knew something, but the ancient chariots are no longer used to the battlefield now. Unexpectedly, where did the Turks use this chariot tactic?

From this perspective, the destructive power and importance of the chariot have not been reduced at all, and the speed of the cavalry alone cannot get any advantage in the melee.

Li De observed that the damage of the chariot was not to see a stone or crashing over it, but to rely on the driver's consciousness and strong bearings to cause powerful damage.

The disadvantage is that the chariot is very heavy, and even if there are two horses, it cannot catch up with the cavalry. However, it is precisely because of this that the chariot is not easy to overturn when it hits.

If this chariot is applied to the rushing battle, it would be a nightmare for infantry. According to the description of Cheng Zhijie and You Junda, Xue Liang, who was responsible for pursuing at that time, would be counted as 30% of the combat power.

Even Yuchi Gong's people lost as much as 10%. It can be seen that the power of these chariots is very suitable for fighting that sacrifices one's life. The Turks had been planning to enter the hinterland of the Sui Kingdom for a long time.

"Grandmaster, do we want to make this chariot?" The Lu brothers asked.

Li De was thinking about things, but was interrupted by the other party's voice. He reacted and asked, "Of course, but we can't just do this. Since it is a chariot, we must play more roles."

Li De said as he picked up the pen and widened the size of the chariot. Since the impact depends on the inertia after speed, it is better to make the chariot bigger and the more horses, anyway, it is prepared to rush forward.

In order to avoid letting the chariot fall into a melee and be subject to the enemy, especially the strategy of the war, we should pay attention to rushing around, just like a vanguard soldier and horse.

But how to ensure the lethality of the enemy in this way? This is where Li De wants to improve. Since the bearings can be extended, why can't the weapons on the field be installed with some powerful things?

For example, turbulent oil vehicles, such as the cluster crossbow truck used on the city walls of Youzhou City, can withstand the arrows of a bow and arrow team at one time.

If these things are installed on a chariot, it will definitely be a big killer.

"Yeah, that's it." Li De held the brush and stared blankly on the table. What everyone saw was Li De smirking alone.

I don't know what happened.

"Brother-in-law, are you okay?" Li Shimin asked softly when he saw it.

"Oh, nothing, I just came up with some good things, I'll draw them for you to see."

After Li De finished speaking, he started drawing. There was a big box on the chariot, which made everyone see strange things. Then he talked about the picture inside. In fact, there were water jet trucks and water jets in ancient times.

They use the principle of leverage to make simple pressure devices to extinguish fires, but the emergence of the times was later than now. Li De painted the installation of a spitting train on a chariot. The principle is very simple, which is to install tincture oil in the box and then use a similar method to pressurize to ensure the attack range of the tincture oil.

The flame does not burn inside, but outside. As long as it is done to prevent backfire, the internal structure is to use skin capsules and various gas empty capsules to pressurize.

It took Li De a long time to draw it. He spent several sheets of paper in total, and each sheet was marked with details of the whole and internal analysis.

"Brother-in-law, can this thing spit fire?" Li Shimin asked in confusion.

Anyone who sees this kind of super bold thing will be surprised. When the Lu brothers on the side see this thing, they will directly enter the state of discussing technology. Others can't understand what they say.

Li De finished drawing the drawings, and whether it could be realized or not has to wait for the Lu brothers to make it.

"Of course, you see that there is a fire outside. As long as the principle of compressed air is used, the turbulent oil can be sprayed out. Pressure only requires two people to be in front of the chariot, and two more drivers can achieve it."

Li De began to explain that the fire outlet of the sintering oil car is at the back of the car, with three openings on both sides and behind each side, which can ensure that as long as the carriage moves forward, it will not be affected by sintering oil.

The explanation is very detailed and the tactics have been considered. In order to ensure the maximum lethality of the sulphur truck, there will be a pair of cavalry ahead to open the way for them, and the route of travel is to move forward.

"If this tinea oil car is really successful, it will be the enemy's nightmare." Li Shimin said in surprise.

Li Shimin is really interested in this new weapon, and once he uses it, he will definitely gain the upper hand.

Before it was over, Li De began to draw pictures again. This time it was easy to understand. He directly drew a crossbow chariot on the chariot. A crossbow squad with a crossbow that was worth ten or thirty people.

The key is that this crossbow cart can move at any time. If there are hundreds of such chariots, then with the excellent killing range of the crossbow cart, it is definitely a weapon on the battlefield, and its function is even more important than the Spitfire tank.

Li Shimin was watching from the side, wanting to lean on it. If he was really equipped with hundreds of such fast crossbows, he could not only continuously load arrows, but also carry supplies for the soldiers and horses, and he would simply have a strong combat power logistics army.

He imagined that in front of a million soldiers and horse formation, tens of thousands of arrows would fly across the sky with one wave. It seemed that there was the momentum of millions of Qin soldiers destroying the six countries.

When Li De designed this mobile crossbow cart, he considered cluster combat, so the angle of all crossbow carts was increased and can be adjusted.

As long as these crossbows are tested, they can play the role of these crossbows.

This is a mobile crossbow truck, and the process may be more precise, because the replacement of arrows is done through gears and then loaded at one time, which can ensure continuous combat, so the required design technology is more difficult than the crossbow trucks on the existing city walls.

"Brothers of the Lu family, it depends on two of you whether they can be created." Li Dedao.
