Reborn in the Water Margin as emperor, built tanks to level the world

"Not to mention 20 people working together to push one car. In my opinion, even if 40 people push one car, it is quite difficult."

"If a large number of war horses are used to pull it, it may still be feasible."

"But how to transport a large number of war horses to this place through the enemy's heavy defensive attention is also quite a headache."

Zhao Ji, Shen Kuo and others have been discussing this issue here for a long time, but they still haven't come up with a relatively safe solution.

In the end, they had no choice but to take Shen Kuo away from here and return to their own camp.

After everyone has discussed how to transport the five steel chariots out of the city without anyone noticing, they can then come here to implement the next plan.

Within three days after this.

Zhao Ji would call Wu Yong, Shen Kuo, Zhu Wu and others into his camp almost every day to discuss how to transport those chariots back.

Both Wu Yong and Zhu Wu put forward many fantastic ideas on this issue.

But if we look into it carefully, Zhao Ji feels that no matter what method he uses, it seems inappropriate.

Until the early morning of the third day, Zhao Ji was in the marching tent, preparing to have breakfast.

But because he was still thinking about that problem in his heart, he actually dropped one of the chopsticks in his hand on the dining table.

And that chopstick, after bouncing on the dining table a few times, rolled down along the corner of the dining table.

Zhao Ji felt helpless and just wanted to reach out to take the chopsticks.

But the sound of the rolling chopsticks really made Zhao Ji think, and then he thought:

At the moment, isn't my purpose here to transport those five steel chariots from the Ministry of Industry's Beijing office without anyone noticing?

What if I put several or even a dozen round rolling logs under each steel chariot?

Then, perhaps only a few people need to be sent behind each chariot to push those steel chariots away easily.

Although there are iron wheels underneath every steel chariot.

But it's because those iron wheels are connected to the steam power engine through the transmission system.

In this way, it is equivalent to increasing the friction resistance on each wheel.

But instead of using the wheels under those steel chariots to move forward, what if we just place some logs with strong rolling force under those steel chariots?

So, can the friction coefficient of each tank be greatly reduced when it moves forward?

At that time, as long as we have enough round rolling logs here, we can push the steel chariots forward for a certain distance and take the logs at the back to the front.

By pushing it all the way like this, the soldiers under my command not only save effort, but also do not make too much noise when moving the steel chariots, thereby attracting enemy forces.

Such a plan is really feasible!

At this time, Zhao Ji became more and more excited the more he thought about it, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

In the end, I couldn't even eat breakfast.

He hurriedly called Wu Yong, Zhu Wu, Shen Kuo and others over, and discussed with them to see if this method of transporting steel chariots was feasible.

Shen Kuo, Wu Yong, and Zhu Wu, after thinking carefully in their hearts for a while, agreed with Zhao Ji's idea.

So these people decided to sneak into the Ministry of Industry's office in the capital at midnight today.

Use this method to transport the five steel chariots back.

At the moment, what these people need to do is to quickly summon the soldiers under their command to go to the mountain forest a few miles away from here, and follow the requirements of Zhao Ji and others to cut down large quantities of wood from that mountain forest. Return to the logs for use that night.

It was approaching midnight.

Zhao Ji, Wu Song, Hu Yanzhuo and others led hundreds of skilled minions and set off in a hurry from the coalition station.

Its target is directly at the Ministry of Industry's office in the capital.

Because these people were all wearing night clothes, even the logs were painted black.

So in this dark night, it is indeed very good to hide your traces.

After leading these hundreds of people to their destination, they all followed Zhao Ji's request and threw the dark logs on the ground.

After moving a steel chariot with difficulty onto those black logs.

He put people behind the steel chariot and pushed harder.

Once those steel chariots roll on the black logs, the driving force required next is much less than at the beginning.

In the subsequent operation process, only ten people can transport a steel chariot from here relatively easily.

After all the five steel chariots here were transported out, Wu Song and Hu Yanzhuo covered the black tarpaulin in place again.

As for the area where it collapsed, a black log was found to hold it up, creating the illusion that the steel chariots had not been transported away.

When the sky was getting brighter, Zhao Ji and others used this method to transport the five steel chariots back to the coalition camp.

In this way, one of the important conditions for the plain warfare method that Zhao Ji and others conceived at the beginning was completed.

But on the issue of how to design and equip those armored combat vehicles with offensive weapons.

Zhao Ji and others couldn't help but encountered difficulties again.

Although the impact power of these armored combat vehicles is indeed very powerful.

If a general suddenly appears in the midst of thousands of troops, using his power, he can indeed hit or crush many enemy troops to death.

But that kind of lethality is extremely limited.

Furthermore, four shooting holes were left on the tops of these five armored fighting vehicles as early as when they were originally designed.

If it cannot be fully utilized at this time, it will greatly reduce the combat effectiveness.

Finally, after repeated discussions among Zhao Ji, Wu Yong, Zhu Wu and others, they decided on the attack method of firing arrows from that hole.

But such an attack method also has a fatal shortcoming.

That is, the attack frequency of each armored vehicle is really too low.

On other battlefields, the reason why those archers played a decisive role in battlefield deterrence.

The most important point is that those archers usually do not exist alone, but appear on the battlefield in groups.

Hundreds and thousands of archers gathered together to fire a hail of arrows.

Such a deterrent attack ability is really quite terrifying.

But now?

Each armored tank has only four shooting ports.

If only four archers are allowed to be in the chariot together, they can only shoot four arrow feathers at one time.
