The external reactive armor on the chariot is as large as the palm of an adult's hand, and is woven with a lining woven from cooked cowhide strips wrapped in refractory rattan, which can be put away and put into the baggage cart for transfer in peacetime, and can be plugged in as needed in wartime.

Moreover, the use of scale-like cotton steel plates, on the one hand, it is convenient to disassemble and replace the damaged armor, on the other hand, the use of fish scale-like stacking process, not only can effectively defend against the frontal shooting of metal arrows, is to use a stone thrower or trebuchet to attack stone projectiles in the place, as long as the stone that comes over does not weigh more than three catties, it is absolutely impossible to hurt the body itself under the protection of reactive armor, but if the stone bullet shot by the opponent is too large, there is no need to study.

At this time, the vehicle formation belongs to the state of full expansion, the left and right double formations in front of the "product" zigzag three-talent array, each occupying the left and right of the road of the soft wolf pass, forty chariots and twenty logistics baggage box trucks, with thirty chariots as the front, ten chariots facing the road, and then twenty logistics box cars are attached to the back and bottom of the mountain pass, forming a formation of the word "day".

As for the total of 60 cars, why not put up a "mouth" shaped car formation, because the word "day" can get more space to lay out the arrow shelter. As mentioned above, the Huang family's chariot is designed with a detachable structure, and the body of the chariot is mainly divided into a car body, a driver, a wheel and a four-wall car board, in which the left and right sides of the chariot are the main chariot plates, and the front and rear sides are side panels.

And now, Han Jinbao's car array, all to the left side of the car outside, the left side of the car plate down to the ground, the right side of the car plate disassembled and installed above the left side, so it also formed a defensive structure similar to the city wall, the height of the barrier obtained after the two sides of the car plate is as high as one zhang four feet (close to four meters five), which is a very embarrassing height.

Based on the average height of normal people in their early five feet (about 1.5 or 6 meters), if the height of the barrier is about one zhang, there is still the possibility of climbing with bare hands or multiple people cooperating with the ladder, but after an extra four feet, it is much more difficult to climb alone.

And the height of one foot and four feet is also embarrassing for the cavalry, even the best Western Xia war horses today, the average shoulder height is only four and a half feet, and the height of five feet can be regarded as a "BMW", such as the three horses that Huang Jie bought with Lao Hu'er are more than five feet tall, and they are only sold for one thousand.

According to the regulations of today's Great Song Dynasty, a horse with a height of less than four feet four inches is an inferior horse, and the price is about fifty or sixty yuan; About four feet and five inches is a medium horse, and the price is around more than 100 times; More than 4 feet 6 inches is a good horse, and most of them have no price.

In other words, whether it is the Western Xia, the Liao State, or even the Great Song Dynasty, the war horses used by the cavalry are mostly medium horses around four and a half feet, and only the captains or generals and guards can ride good horses with a height of more than four feet and six inches, and only the commanders and generals are qualified to ride the BMW over five feet.

In other words, a cavalryman with an average height of about five feet riding a war horse with a height of four and a half feet will definitely not be able to jump over the wall of the chariot with a height of one foot and four feet, even if he rushes to the foot of the wall and wants to climb it with his bare hands, even if he is allowed to step on the back of the horse and jump his feet, he will be just one or two feet short of height, and then ...... It's a tragedy!

When the chariot is fully deployed in wartime, the space inside the carriage will be completely emptied, and then there will be a six-person combat team in the compartment of each vehicle, controlling two simple versions of the eight-ox bed crossbow installed in the carriage, including one archer, four loaders, and one observer. The role of the shooter and loader is naturally not to mention, and the role of the observer is to pull the external reactive armor plate from the firing port inside the hull, and report the target's shooting yuan to the shooter, and quickly close the armor plate after the shooter has fired.

Then, in the lower part of the hull, there is also a six-man combat team as a reserve, if the enemy shoots from a distance, the reserve team will take turns to enter the car to reload the bed crossbow, if the enemy sends infantry to pounce on the "ant-attached" attack car formation, then the six-person team will take out the standard spear, put the spear shaft on the prefabricated collar under the car, and then wait for the commander in the car to push forward, the spear will stick out through the collar and the puncture hole reserved on the car wall, and then pierce the enemy through the gap in the armor of the external armor.

Even, the length of the spear tip is only three inches, and it is triangular, and there is also a cross-shaped horizontal branch less than two inches long at the position of the blood block, so as to ensure that the spearhead penetrates the enemy's body only three inches deep will be blocked by the horizontal branch, and there will be no situation where it is too deep into the human body to pull out.

In addition, the roof of the car is not empty, under normal circumstances, the roof is also guarded by a six-person combat team, this team is not only equipped with melee weapons such as knives, bones, shields, etc., but also has a bow and feather arrows in the equipment box attached to the roof, which can be thrown behind the car wall, or you can get up and make a precise strike from the shooting hole in the car wall.

Then, on the back wall of the chariot, there is also a rattan mat anti-arrow shed woven with mixed cooked cowhide strips mixed with rattan, and the soldiers can hide under the anti-arrow shed to avoid the rain of arrows thrown by the enemy, and if they want to throw the arrows over the wall into the chariot array, the landing point of the arrows must be vertical, so they will not shoot through the densely woven rattan mat on the anti-arrow shed at all. You must know that if these rattan mats are in danger, they can be used as shields if they are removed and tied casually, and the rattan soldiers' rattan defense is not to be said.

In addition, because Han Jinbao, a new tank unit, is not only Huang Jie's heart, but also Gao Yu's own son, he also did his best in terms of equipment. First of all, the shooters of the second command and third capital of the Fourth Army of the Divine Guard Army who put a bed crossbow outside the gate of Dailou that day were all transferred close to Han Jinbao's department, in addition, Gao Yu even transferred the craftsmen of the ordnance supervision to Han Jinbao with a big wave, and modified the eight-ox heavy crossbow used in the city defense so that it could be used in a narrow carriage, and even allocated three hundred divine arm bows, 1,200 two-stone iron-tire bows of the Great Song Dynasty forbidden army system to Han Jinbao at one time, and some equipment for defending the city.

Don't think that 300 divine arms and bows are not much, if this is placed in the northwest border army, it can form a formed divine arm bow and arrow array, with a minimum of 1,200 "command" personnel, and its configuration is 300 archers, 600 loaders, and 300 auxiliary reserves dedicated to carrying bows and arrows and melee combat.

When attacking, a batch of 100 people is used, and in the time of half a cup of tea (about five minutes), the Divine Arm Bow and Arrow Array can continuously fire at least thirty-six rain of arrows, but don't feel that this speed is not fast enough, you must know that the limit range of the Song Army's Divine Arm Bow is about three hundred and fifty steps, so the upper winding needs to be stretched (stepping on the ring to open the bow with the strength of the whole body), so once it is launched with the tactics of a chain of arrows, one person needs to be wound, one person hangs the arrow, one person passes, and one person launches, And the man who was on the string couldn't stumble many times in one breath.

Now, everything in this car array is undoubtedly an incredible black technology for the Xixia people who are all stunned eighty steps away! (To be continued.) )
