Chapter 20 Special Chariots

The gate was made of metal wrapped in thick hardwood to make the slide gate, which moved by the gears and chains above, and looked heavy and solid, four meters high and five meters wide.

About 10 meters away from the junction of the two sections of wood and stone walls of the north gate city wall, each stands an observation tower tens of meters high, and reaches the top through a bamboo staircase that winds around the tower, and there is an attack platform every ten meters, stacked with wooden guns, which can directly throw guns to attack the enemy outside the city wall.

The two towers are 50 meters apart, and the city gate is just triangular, standing on the top of the tower workbench, the whole Shuikou Village dynamics are in full view.

On each side of the city gate, there are two guard stations ten meters apart, about five meters high, on which there are members of the village protection team, observing the crowd coming and going inside and outside the city gate and on the street between the two guard stations, and can call the police immediately once there is an abnormality.

The four gates have the same defensive design, which has been continuously improved from a practical point of view and the lessons learned from each battle.

However, all members of the five-man regiment understood that the city gates were mainly used to control the entry and exit of the people in normal times, and in a truly threatening war, the enemy would not concentrate all his forces on the four most defended gates, but would break through by destroying a section of wooden fence wall.

It is precisely because of this that the eight observation towers play the most important role, knowing the enemy's movements inside and out, so that the strongest can be used where they are most needed.

Kai Hao carefully looked at the defensive arrangement of the entire area of the city gate.

Chen Meng and Lei Xuemei stood together, looking around. People who came and went inside and outside the city gates, and from time to time acquaintances greeted them.

Xiao Xuan squatted on the ground and picked up a few stones to play on the ground.

Lei Xuemei looked at Kai Hao's resolute and focused eyes, and asked Chen Meng in a low voice: "What is Kai Hao looking at?"

Chen Meng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Sometimes we play war, and he plays as if he is thinking about something, so we have to wait for him to come back to his senses and continue to play." ”

Lei Xue frowned and said coquettishly, "You didn't ask him?"

Chen Meng said: "It's really not, the partners who play with me are a little afraid of Kailux, and I don't know why." ”

Lei Xuemei said: "He is not the most powerful in fighting, why are you so afraid of him?"

Chen Meng didn't know how to explain it for a while, and after thinking for a while, he said: "It's not that I'm afraid, because every time I play war, Kai Hao can be a commander, so everyone treats him as a commander, so I think he is a little majestic." ”

Lei Xuemei was speechless, and said with a smile: "Just you little broken children, do you still know majesty?"

Xiao Xuan, who was squatting on the side and playing with stones, raised his head and said, "My brother is not majestic at all, he is just naughty and mischievous, and he is always spanked by my mother." ”

Lei Xuemei grinned and said, "You are only so old, of course your brother is very good to you." ”

Kai Hao suddenly said, "Uncle Wan is here." ”

Wan Zhiwen led dozens of members of the village guard team to patrol from the west gate on deer horses, and when he saw Kai Hao and others, he waved his hand to let the others continue to patrol, he got off the horse, walked over, and said to Kai Hao: "Kai Hao, why did you come here?"

Lei Xuemei smiled and said, "Uncle Wan, Kai Hao is helping you find a way to improve the village's defense." ”

Wan Zhiwen smiled: "Yes, Kai Yu said." ”

Kai Hao was stunned for a moment, so he had to say: "Uncle Wan, I don't have any ideas yet, the current defense settings are already good." ”

Wan Zhiwen looked back and forth and said: "Where, now the mode of defense is a little unable to keep up with the changes in the situation, now there are more large-scale bandits, we have a sense of crisis, you can take a look at it, if you have a good suggestion, tell me immediately." ”

Kai Hao nodded and said, "Okay, if you have any ideas, I will come to you directly." ”

Wan Zhiwen looked at Chen Meng and said, "Xiao Meng, you have time to go to the arsenal to get more enemy guns, continue to practice, follow Kai Lu, and come up with more ideas for the defense facilities of our Shuikou Village." ”

Chen Meng hurriedly nodded and said, "I'll get it later." ”

Kai Hao said: "Uncle Wan, I have a suggestion about Chen Meng's enemy-breaking gun. ”

Wan Zhiwen said: "Speak, Kai Luxury." ”

Kai Hao said: "The current defensive wall of Shuikou Village is very long, Chen Meng's enemy gun is only stored in the weapons depot, in the event of a sudden crisis, it is very likely that it will not be able to be transported to the location that Da Meng needs in time, so I suggest that four or five carriages be arranged fixed, and a small carriage dedicated to the enemy's gun will be towed behind, which will be placed in four different directions. ”

Wan Zhiwen nodded while listening and said, "It makes sense, I think that at present, a circle of defensive walls is so long, it is most appropriate to prepare eight weapon vehicles." At the same time, it is specially equipped with a combat vehicle to stay near Xiao Meng's activity area at any time, and once needed, Xiao Meng can be immediately sent to the desired location. ”

Lei Xue said coquettishly: "Chen Meng is so important, isn't it a bit of a waste of resources?"

Wan Zhiwen smiled and said: "Don't be reluctant, if you delay a little time, there may be big problems, now the bandits' means of transportation and weapons are different from before, we can't be too conservative." I will report Kaihao's suggestion to the group of five as soon as possible, and I believe everyone will agree. ”

Kai Hao said: "And the Da Meng's chariot needs to be larger and stronger, and it must also have protection, and it can be directly docked with the weapon car, so that Da Meng can exert his maximum attack power." ”

Wan Zhiwen smiled and gave a thumbs up and said, "What Kai Hao said makes a lot of sense, it seems that I need to recruit you to our think tank in advance." ”

Lei Xuemei said: "Kai Hao is only 12 years old. ”

Kai Hao grinned and said, "Uncle Wan, I'm still at the age of playing." ”

Wan Zhiwen said: "Now I feel that the crisis is approaching, and I am still thinking about what age, and if I have the ability, I must focus on using it." ”

Lei Xue nodded and said, "Uncle Wan, what you said is also right. Where's Sister Qinwen?"

Wan Zhiwen said: "It's time to go to study, I wanted to follow me to see Kai Hao in the morning, but I didn't let her go." ”

Xiao Xuan said, "Uncle Wan, I want to play with Sister Wen." ”

Kai Hao said: "Xiao Xuan, why don't you say that you want to study with Xiao Wen." ”

Xiao Xuan pouted and didn't speak, and continued to play with his little stone.

Wan Zhiwen smiled and said: "Xiao Xuan is only five years old, what book to read, I will let Xiaowen take you to play in two days." ”

Wan Qinwen is Wan Zhiwen's daughter, five years older than Xiao Xuan, very cute and cute, and often played with Xiao Xuan before.

Lei Xuemei said: "When the time comes, I'll take her to play with Xiao Xuan." ”

Wan Zhiwen nodded.

Kai Hao said: "Uncle Wan, why don't I go to the arsenal with Da Meng now to get some enemy spears and give him practice?"

Wan Zhiwen said, "Where are you going to practice? I will send someone to bring the gun over, and by the way, someone will escort you." ”

Chen Meng smiled and said, "I don't need a guard, let's go to the grass a little west outside the north gate, there are few people there." ”
