Chapter 640: Incendiary bombs
Everyone started talking about the shield cart against the army of black wind thieves, and everyone present hated this shield cart so much, and a large number of black wind thieves rushed straight to the city under their cover. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Many of these shield carts are covered with iron sheets on the outside, or some extremely hard wood, which is extremely difficult to destroy, and is a headache for many armies.
There seems to be no other good way to deal with such a shield car except for a stone thrower.
It's just that there is a big problem with the stone thrower, that is, the accuracy, the shield car moves very fast, and the stone thrower is difficult to hit accurately, even if there is Professor Lin Ze's ballistics, but the results are not great.
One of the hundred households where Du Hui was located said: "My lord, there is an idea here that maybe we can deal with the shield car?"
"Oh, what do you think, let's hear it!" Lin Ze said expectantly, and the other people also looked at this hundred households with interest.
Seeing so many people looking at him, a little nervousness appeared on Baihu's face, but he quickly settled down.
"My lord, we can prepare a large number of clay pots, fill them with fire oil, use them to smash the shield cart, and then throw the torches to burn them, so that we can surely burn those black wind thieves into roast pigs. Baihu quickly said his thoughts, and after Lin Ze heard it, he didn't have a flicker, and he had an idea in his heart.
This suggestion of 100 households reminded Lin Ze of the Mo // Luo // Tuo// Fu cocktail during World War II.
(Mo // Lo // To// Fu cocktail is another name for an earthen Molotov cocktail.)
During World War II, the Soviets invaded Finland, and the soldiers were inferior in terms of numbers and equipment.
In the face of the Soviet tanks, the Finnish borrowed the Molotov cocktail weapon invented by the republicans supported by the Soviets during the war in the West.
During the Soviet-//Finnish war, Soviet-//-combined bombers used incendiary bombs to bomb Finnish cities and civilian targets. In the face of the accusations of the international community, Mo claimed that the Soviet-Union planes did not drop bombs on the people of Finland, but airdropped bread on them.
The Finnish soldiers and civilians called the Soviet-incendiary bombs "Mo-lo-to-f/lo-to-f// bread baskets", and called the Mo-lo cocktails they prepared for the Soviet-Union tanks.
In the ensuing war, the Finnish military produced Molotov cocktails in large quantities, which were thrown by hand or with stone throwers. )
Everyone else laughed at this time, but it was not a smile of approval, but a smile of disapproval.
Many people disagree with this suggestion of Baihu, and many people have already thought of such a method, but there are still problems that need to be solved.
No, as soon as the words of the hundred households fell, one of them immediately asked: "The shield carts of the Black Wind Thieves are all parked forty or fifty meters away from the city wall, such a long distance, can the fire pour hit the ground? Besides, there are a large number of shield carts of the Black Wind Thieves, how much fire oil is needed to burn them all, and how many manpower is needed to make so many fire oil cans? How much time does it take? Besides, even if the fire is smashed into the shield car of the Black Wind Thief, but forty or fifty meters away, will the torch in our hand be thrown in the middle of it?"
The hundred households blushed directly, and shouted loudly: "If you don't give it a try, how do you know it's useless?"
"This thing, you don't need to test it, you know it's useless, and if you test it again, you're not stupid!" the other person also spoke.
"You're .......!"
"Okay, they're all colleagues, what are you talking about!" Lin Ze on the side saw that the quarrel was about to escalate into hand-to-hand combat, and he scolded directly.
"My lord, I made a mistake in my humble position, please forgive me!" Baihu and the two officers who had just argued hurriedly apologized to Lin Ze, and they could see that Lin Ze was indeed angry when they heard it.
Thinking about Lin Ze's previous emphasis on helping each other's comrades-in-arms, beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of these officers.
"Okay, this time the matter is over, if there is such a thing next time, it will be severely punished!" Lin Ze said very sternly.
He won't let go of such a thing easily.
Now we are holding a military meeting, and the most important thing is to discuss ways to deal with the enemy, not to tear each other down here, if the military memories are full of mutual demolitions, then such a military meeting will not be held.
Just like the modern national // army, why does the national // army have such a big advantage, but in the end it still fails?
Of course, the most important factor is that they have lost the support of the people, but there are also generals of the country// army who often tear each other down when they hold military meetings, and this reason is in it.
Every military meeting of the country, whether big or small, is full of generals who tear each other down, and if such an army can win a big victory, then it will be hell!
Lin Ze knew the harm of these things, so his tone was so harsh.
"My lord, I don't dare to be inferior anymore!" The generals of the hundred households were now covered with sweat on their backs, and Lin Ze's tone was so stern, it was the first time they had met.
"My lord, please calm your anger!" The general next to him also stepped forward to plead guilty.
"Okay, let's all get up, that's all there is to it, there must never be another thing like this in the future, understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
The turmoil passed quickly, and at this time, Lin Ze said again: "Actually, Qiu Baihu's suggestion still has great merit. ”
"Oh, sir, ........ do you mean?" Tie Ying asked with some curiosity.
"Didn't you worry that the size of the clay pot was too big for the average soldier to throw? The size of the clay pot is large, but the volume of ordinary wine bottles is not large, we can use those wine bottles in the restaurant to fill the oil of fire, and these wine bottles can be found everywhere, and the price is also very low, in a short time, we can raise a large number of wine bottles. Lin Ze said with a smile.
As soon as he heard Lin Ze's words, Tie Ying's eyes suddenly lit up, and then, a feeling of sudden realization came to his heart.
"Yes, the clay pots are very large, and it is true that they are not easy to throw, but aren't the bottles in the tavern easy to throw, and they are easy to find, and the price is not high, so ........ ”
Tie Ying and the others' eyes flashed with bright light, and their faces were all eager to try at this time.
Seeing the eager expression on Tie Ying's face, Lin Ze had a smile on his face: "As for the distance, I believe that it will not be a problem for everyone to throw a wine bottle forty or fifty meters away, not to mention, we are still on the city wall, and we can naturally throw things far away, isn't it?!"
The soldiers on the city wall, the lowest strength has a strength of four or five hundred catties, and with such strength, it is not a problem to throw an object the size of a fist and weighing two or three catties forty or fifty meters away.
You must know that the throwing distance of grenades in the modern army is 35 meters, remember clearly, 35 meters is qualified, and many soldiers can throw grenades about 40 meters.
The weight of the grenade is definitely heavier than the fire oil bomb made of wine bottles, and the soldiers in Lin Ze's hands, the worst strength, compared to the strongest special forces in the modern army, do not want to let it, plus Lin Ze They are now on the city wall, and they have a natural advantage in height, and the soldiers under his command threw two or three pounds of fire oil bottles forty or fifty meters away, which is really not a problem.
Obviously, Tie Ying and these people also thought of this.
At this moment, they looked at Lin Ze's gaze, full of admiration.
In fact, they had all thought of destroying the shield car of the Black Wind Thief with fire oil, but there were a few problems that they couldn't solve, so in the end, of course, Tie Ying and they didn't even think about it, so they just gave up this idea.
However, Lin Ze, after seeing the problem here, he didn't run away, but used his brain to solve the problem.
As a result, very simply, Lin Ze came up with solutions to these problems.
Comparing the two sides, Tie Ying and others are really ashamed in their hearts, and they are more and more impressed by Lin Ze.
In this way, the notekeeper on one side wrote down this advice, and soon, it would be implemented in the army.
If the effect is obvious in actual combat, the hundred households who made the suggestion will be heavily rewarded.
Although this idea, in fact, many people have already had such an idea in their hearts, but the first one who really put forward it was this hundred households, so this reward only belongs to him.
Seeing this order given by Lin Ze, and thinking of the huge retraction of this soldier after the war, everyone was even more excited in their hearts, and they all said some thoughts in their hearts.
Whether it was useful or not, it was spoken.
At this moment, this military meeting really had the appearance of a military meeting, and tactics were being discussed everywhere.
Some of them talked about the timing of the archers' troops, and when the archers attacked for the first time, due to the lack of experience in the timing of the archers' troops, they did not grasp this measure when they attacked, and were severely damaged by the Black Wind Thieves archer troops and ballistas under the city walls.
This lesson was very devastating and caused a large number of casualties among the archers' troops.
In the end, after discussion, everyone agreed that before the Black Wind Thief's shield cart was not destroyed, and before the Black Wind Thief's archers still had a shield cart to use as a cover, the archers on their side blindly shot in a group, which actually had no effect.
It is better to shoot from all over the city when the soldiers of the Black Wind Legion are filling in the trenches or entering the city, so that the effect of killing the Black Wind Bandits is more obvious, and it can also greatly reduce the casualties of your own soldiers.
