136, for sledding

Xiapi City West, School Field.

Ouyang Jing and Lu Lingqi stood side by side on the high platform, looking at the school field below with a thick layer of snow.

On the spacious field, there is a healthy horse, dragging a wheelless monster car, moving forward in the snow.

The strange car had only a carriage, no wheels at the bottom, and only a flat log on each side that looked like a curved flat pole. In the carriage, stones weighing 1,500 pounds were piled up, plus a driver.

Rao so, the horse still ran briskly, as if it had no weight.

"How?" Seeing Jian's horse running away with a strange car for a while, Ouyang Jing asked Lu Lingqi with a smile: "This 'sled' is not bad, right?" ”

"Isn't that good? It's a weapon! Lu Lingqi said in surprise: "It may be useless in normal times, but once the road is closed by heavy snow, this strange car ...... Sleds, you can come in handy! Transporting food and troops is of great use! ”

"Not bad. If an ordinary healthy horse is used to carry people, it can only carry a maximum of two people at the same time, and it cannot travel long distances. But if it is used to pull a cart, it can pull a jack of carriages, and it is easy to travel hundreds of miles. This sleigh uses the principle of horsepower, similar to a horse-drawn carriage, except that it is more suitable for traveling in the snow, and its burden on the horses is even lighter than that of a horse-drawn carriage. ”

Ouyang Jing said with a smile: "With this sled, I don't need to use too many people to use the 20,000 stone corn that Liu Bei prepared for me, I only need to use three or four hundred sleds to transport 20,000 stone grain into the city at one time." ”

20,000 stone corn, weighing 300,000 kilograms.

If manpower is used, even if one person can carry 50 kilograms at a time, it will take 6,000 people.

With such a large-scale personnel transfer, it is impossible to hide it from Cao Cao's eyes and ears.

And manpower transports grain, trekking in the snow, and it is impossible to quickly transport grain into the city. If you are not careful, you will be made dumplings by Cao Jun.

Even if the cavalry is used to transport food, a good horse and a fully armored cavalry can only carry another fifty kilograms of grain at most, provided that the speed is not too slow due to the load. The last one is to use six thousand cavalry.

Let's not talk about how large and powerful the 6,000 cavalry should be, how can there be so many cavalry in Xiapi City?

Now the wolf riders under Lu Bu are only more than 3,000 riders.

But with this horse-drawn sleigh, the situation is completely different. With only three or four hundred horsemen, you can transport 20,000 stone of grain at a time. Moreover, the speed of the horse-drawn sleigh in the snow is not much inferior to that of the lightly armed cavalry, and it is not afraid of being detected and intercepted by Cao Jun.

"If the snow lasts until the day we fight back, the sled will be even more useful."

Ouyang Jing said again: "The strongest combat power of our army is not the wolf cavalry of the state, but the dead soldiers in battle. However, the trapping camp is a heavy infantry, and unless they fight in formation and face each other head-on, it is difficult to play a role in surprise attacks and pursuits.

"The counterattack strategy formulated by Liu Bei and I focuses on a quick word, and we must take Cao Cao by surprise with lightning speed. Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for the full hoplites to play a role in this lightning raid. However, if the snow does not melt and there is such a sled, the trapped camp can take a sled to keep up with the speed of the cavalry assault. ”

Lu Lingqi advised: "This sleigh can also be used as a chariot. Although the chariot has long been withdrawn from the battlefield, it is because the cavalry is more flexible than the chariot, and the chariot itself is too demanding on the terrain conditions of the battlefield.

"But on a snow-covered battlefield, cavalry is no more agile than a sled. As for the terrain conditions, the sled, unlike the chariot, is not afraid of overturning due to rough terrain as long as there is heavy snow on the ground. ”

Ouyang Jing laughed: "Lingqi, your idea is good, the sleigh is used as a chariot and rampage, it is indeed better than simply using it to transport troops." However, I'm not familiar with the use of chariots, so I'll leave it up to you to use the sled as a chariot. Well, when it comes to counterattacking, those who ride the sled will be trapped, and you will need to discuss this matter with General Gao Shun. ”

Lu Lingqi patted her towering chest and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, it's wrapped up in me!" ”

In the next few days, Lu Lingqi supervised the craftsman battalion to build sleds, and at the same time studied with Gao Shun how to transform sleds into chariots, and mobilized the soldiers of the trapping camp to train to fight on sleds.

Ouyang Jing lived in a simple place, only patrolling the city once a day to boost morale, and the rest of the time, he was concentrating on cultivation and seizing the time to improve his strength.

Although he had digested Lu Bu's inheritance, realized the ultimate hegemony, and obtained Lu Bu's lifelong combat skills, he could use the Heavenly Halberd of both sides freely, but his absolute strength, after several opportunities to strengthen, still only obtained a four-star intermediate rank. There is still a big gap with the top players.

In this world of the Three Kingdoms, he can't sweep the current world, let alone the world of reincarnation?

Therefore, although Liu Bei has been completely impressed, and he has set a strategy to counterattack Cao Cao, complete the task and even get the hidden reward, he is quite sure, but he still can't relax in the slightest.

After all, the first great enemy he really had to face was not in this world, but in the Hall of Reincarnation.

A few days later, Liu Bei sneaked into Xiapi again and informed Ouyang Jing that the food had been prepared and placed in Liu Bei's camp, asking him to try to receive it.

So on the second night, Cao Cao received this message:

"What? Lu Bu attacked Liu Bei's camp at night, Liu Bei's camp caught fire, and the grain and grass were burned? ”

After receiving the news, Cao Cao, who had just gotten up in his clothes, sat on the couch and was stunned for a while, before he muttered: "In Liu Bei's camp, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Sanying joined forces, how could they be beaten into the camp by Lu Bu and burned the grain and grass?" ”

Xiahoudun, who also received the news and rushed to Cao Cao's tent, said: "Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are not in the camp tonight - Guan Yu went to the East China Sea to find the Mi clan to raise military salaries, and Zhang Fei returned to Xiaopei to recruit soldiers......"

"Guan Zhang is not in the barracks? Lu Bu, how could he seize this opportunity so coincidentally? ”

Although Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, he did not expect that Liu Bei would cooperate with Lu Bu - Ouyang Jing's gift of the jade seal of the country was kept strictly secret by both parties. Liu Bei is on the side, only Liu Guanzhang knows; On Ouyang Jing's side, only Lu Lingqi knew.

Therefore, Cao Cao could not have imagined that Liu Bei, who hated Lu Bu to the core, would be "embarrassed" with Lu Bu.

Cao Cao only thought that there was a spy of Lu Bu in Liu Bei's army, so he ordered in a deep voice:

"Ordered Liu Bei, thoroughly investigate the army, ask for spies, and would rather kill the wrong one than let it go. Well, our army also has to make a big search, and we must not let Lu Bu spy and leak the secrets in the army! ”

"Whoa!" Xiahoudun promised to do so.

"As for Liu Bei's grain and grass ......"

Cao Cao said lightly: "The heavy snow has closed the road, and it is difficult for our army's grain and grass to be transported. There was not much food left in the army, and it was impossible to provide him with much. Yuan Rang, you send Liu Bei a thousand stones of grain and grass over, and let him figure out the rest by himself. Anyway, he has the help of the Mi clan of the East China Sea, so he will not run out of grain and grass. ”

Just when Cao Cao was making all kinds of arrangements, Ouyang Jing and Lu Lingqi had already taken more than 300 sleds and pulled 20,000 stone corn, and quickly slipped back to Xiapi City.

The so-called "night attack on Liu Bei's camp" is, of course, a play made by him and Liu Bei. Liu Bei's camp was on fire, but all that was burned was a pile of dry grass. Liu Bei not only did not lose the slightest, but earned Cao Cao a thousand stone of grain for nothing.

And Ouyang Jing got 20,000 stone corn, and there was no need to strictly control the grain, so that the soldiers could eat three meals a day, have a full meal, and prepare to fight back.
