Horses can run fast, but they can't run all the time!

In particular, when the horse has to carry a person weighing more than 100 pounds on its back, it is impossible to run all the time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info So whether it is a cavalryman in uniform or an ordinary person empty-handed, if you are in a hurry all day, then the process of rushing must be to run in small steps for a while, then walk at a medium speed, and then run in small steps for a while, you must stop and give the horse a rest, eat some grass and drink some water, otherwise the horse will have a temper!

However, Huang Jie used the Huangbian Road from Huangzhou to Tokyo to calculate, if 60 miles as a train section, constantly changing horses, the time for the carriage to arrive in Bianliang from Huangzhou is faster than a person riding two horses or even three horses day and night.

And this Yaozhou and Liaoyang Mansion, one is a seaside city with prosperous economy and trade, and produces sea salt and seafood, and the other is the capital of Liao. They are all important cities in Liao, and there is naturally a thoroughfare road connection between the two, although it is certainly not up to the standard of the Great Song Dynasty that has basically been hardened with Sanhe soil, but at least it can reach the level of a county road with a feasible carriage.

The reason why Huang Jie planned to go straight to Huanglong from beginning to end was that he fell in love with Yaozhou to the north to the first line of Huanglong Mansion, and it was because of this convenient road.

Moreover, even the dirt road is afraid of summer and winter, with the fucking climate of Liaodong, everything will freeze hard for you in winter, and the road condition is not inferior to the road surface hardened with Sanhe soil.

Therefore, while rushing to land on the beach and assaulting Yaozhou, Huang Jie naturally sent out the 8,000 Zhejia army, half of the men and horses scouted left and right to protect the flanks, and the other half of the men and horses quickly went north to Liaoyang Mansion along the official road.

Then, after the Imperial Chariot Army cooperated with the artillery regiment to demolish the Yaozhou City Wall, and the Dare Warriors and the Shenwu Army cleared the remnants of the city and seized control of the city, the whole army also sang songs and rode along the main road.

However, he also said that while Zong Wang listened to the advice and asked the whole army to stop and rest, the Song army started the soil work all night long.

First of all, although Huang Jie only brought 5,000 imperial chariot troops this time, he actually had 400 chariots, and 300 of them were the latest generation and the highest configuration of all-round, all-terrain, and all-invincible chariots.

Compared with the original generation of combat vehicles, this latest generation of combat vehicles, the first use of the latest black technology is all-steel structure + four-wheel universal drive. The all-steel structure is easy to understand, but the frame of the whole vehicle has been replaced from iron parts to steel parts, and it is needless to say. As for the four-wheel universal drive, I have to say a few more words, the first generation of chariots that Huang Jie made back then, the traction method of two-wheel through axle + two-wheel universal drive, that is, a pair of front wheels can be steered, and a pair of rear wheels are connected with iron axles and cannot be steered.

The four-wheel universal wheel, that is, the four wheels have been replaced with steel structure universal wheels, which can be deflected at 270 degrees, or connected by two external through axles (those who have played Audi double diamonds should know this through axle device, and those who have not played will not be explained), with this setting, it also makes the vehicle under normal circumstances can choose the front wheel or rear wheel steering, or four-wheel drive. In wartime, as long as the axle is removed, the car can not only move back and forth, but also move sideways as long as the wheels are slightly turned by manpower.

When the car can move forward, backward, left and right at will, then the whole car array can also move backward and backward, left and right?

Even, if a single or four vehicles are connected in parallel, the underfloor is removed and propelled by manpower, then it can be instantly transformed into an invincible weapon of the era: a tank and a combined tank!

In addition, the new generation of enhanced vehicles has also changed the bow arm of the vehicle-mounted bed crossbow from lying flat to erect, which also doubles the space that can only hold three vehicle-mounted bed crossbows, that is, six bed crossbows can now be placed in a vehicle.

Some people may ask, the crossbow is not a bow, the reason for placing it flat is to aim the crossbow arrow on the crossbow machine, how can it be changed to vertical, Huang Jie will definitely not tell you that in his strange dream, he saw that there is a kind of thing called the arrow platform that is attached to the bow and arrow in the later life, which can perfectly solve this problem.

Because the crossbow arrows shot by the bed crossbow are not a thick, wooden feather one-shot three-sword arrow, or an all-steel structure of a round armor-breaking cone, so Huang Jie chose not a brush (brown cake) arrow platform, but a steel spring arrow platform with a more accurate and durable scale, plus a universal frame that can adjust the height and left and right on the vertical bed crossbow, so that each bed crossbow can hit the conical surface with an angle of 45 degrees.

The armor of the external reactive armor is also lighter, thinner, and smaller, which is more than enough to defend against ordinary arrows. In fact, the first generation of external reactive armor was poor in terms of design principle, and at that time I thought that it was necessary to defend against arrows, explosions, blunt weapon attacks, stone explosions and fire attacks, and then it was actually used to see, there was no need to be so bulky, as long as it could resist the projectile attack of the standard divine arm bow, it was enough, because even the divine arm bow could not be broken, and the Jurchen horn bow was naturally more unbreakable, and what explosions, blunt weapons, stones and fire attacks and other attacks, The enemy must also have the life to penetrate the long-range strike of six bed crossbows per vehicle and break into the front of the vehicle!

But don't forget, even if you get in front of the car, you may not be able to attack with your life, because there are also retractable wishful sticks under the car and soldiers with individual soldiers and crossbows on the roof of the car waiting for you! 、

Without further ado, it was also said that after receiving the news of Zongwang's return, the Song army also moved, first of all, 300 new chariots and more than 100 baggage vehicles were evenly distributed at the four gates of Liaoyang, and a chariot formation about three miles long was set up outside each city gate. Then ice was dug out of the moat, which had frozen into a glacial river, and an anti-cavalry trench was erected in an area about a thousand paces outside the moat.

This kind of anti-cavalry trench built with ice cubes was first explored and used in the confrontation between Hebei and the Liao army, and now it is very mature, the height of the ice cube is only two feet, and it is difficult for horses to pass through with strides, and they must jump in small steps, and behind the ice cubes are a bowl-sized trap pit and thistle terrestris are waiting, and they can't run away when they come.

In addition to the three lines of defense of the car array, the moat and the anti-cavalry trench, Huang Jie even released the 8,000 Zhejia army, which was led by Zhe Keshi himself, one did not accept the enemy, the second did not intercept, and the third did not attack, their only mission was to wait until Zong Wang came to attack Liaoyang, and when he wanted to escape without a single blow, he pursued at the end of the line.

Although these 8,000 Fold Army is not as good as Huangzhou Wei in terms of equipment, not as good as a warrior in terms of martial arts, and even inferior to the Shenwu Army in terms of treatment, this army is a good man who grew up on horseback in the northwest, and has both good equestrian skills and good archery.

So what they have to do is to really compete with the Jurchens on horseback!

On the morning of the 23rd day of the lunar month of the second year of the Great Song Dynasty, the sky was sunny and the snow disappeared, and the four fields were depressed. Marshal of the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty, Huang Jie, the king of Huainan County, drank the order to raise the tent and beat the drums, and opened the door to meet the enemy!
