Chapter 4598: The walking mechanism appears in formation
In the Tianshi Dao front army, Li Nanfeng was wearing leather armor, a hairband, and a Taoist bun. He was not wearing a helmet, and he was holding a three-pronged water fork. He stood in the military formation. His eyes were cold, looking into the smoke.
The troops that slowly advanced and gathered into a group, a hundred steps ahead, were the first batch of more than two thousand light soldiers who charged with shields. The sound of the spiral horns became low-key and deep. The infantry attacking in front,
They were slowly moving forward, slowly approaching the Jin army's defense line. They formed two long horizontal lines. Even the auxiliary soldiers who had started releasing beacon bags of smoke were now picking up their weapons.
As the sergeant of the second array, move forward.
Next to Li Nanfeng, a white-faced scholar-looking man was riding a pony. He was lowering his head and calculating something. The imminent battle ahead seemed to have nothing to do with it. He squinted his eyes slightly and was calculating something with his fingers from time to time. It didn't look like he was a man.
The military academy is like a fortune teller.
Li Nanfeng turned to look at this person and said in a deep voice: "Junior Brother Zhuge, have you made up your mind?"
The scribe finally made another calculation, raised his head, and smiled slightly: "I have calculated it. With the current wind strength and direction, the armored machine man's flying crossbow and serial crossbow are lethal and can break the Jin army's
These lines of defense need to be launched at a distance between 150 and 130 steps, preferably 130 steps."
This scribe's name was Zhuge Feilong. He was proficient in the art of wooden armor. He was also Lu Xun's personal disciple and specialized in teaching the art of mechanism. This time Xu Daofu attacked with light troops. He didn't have any cavalry, but he brought more than 200 troops.
The wooden armor machine man is even covered with fine steel armor pieces on its surface, just like an elite soldier wearing armor. This assault is to let more than 2,000 troops on the front line come forward to fight.
To break the formation, the more than a hundred armored mecha men covering the smoke were able to get close to an effective killing distance and break the Jin army's phalanx in one fell swoop.
Li Nanfeng frowned: "One hundred and thirty steps? It's too close. Isn't it usually about three hundred steps that can effectively kill people?"
Zhuge Feilong shook his head: "The wind direction is not good for our army today, and the Jin army also has airbags that can blow back the smoke of our army. There are blocking horses and barriers in front, and there are large shields behind. These will all
To affect the lethality of our flying rifles and repeating crossbows, it is best to be closer. If the sergeants in front can remove these damn obstacles in front of the enemy's formation and directly attack their front with direct aim instead of projecting, then
The effect will be even better.”
Li Nanfeng gritted his teeth: "In that case, I will let more people die in front to try to extend the attack distance for you. However, you must guarantee that you will penetrate Jin within a hundred and thirty steps."
Army’s defense line!”
Zhuge Feilong's eyes flashed with a cold and murderous aura that was completely inconsistent with his status as a scribe: "Don't worry, as long as we reach the 130th step, I promise to break through the heavy armor phalanx on these two wings. However, after breaking through, I will continue to follow.
It is your business, Senior Brother Li, to chase down the defeated Jin army."
Li Nanfeng laughed loudly, turned to the messenger behind him and said: "I have given the order to add three thousand people to go up, and use rope loops and nooses to pull away all the horses and obstacles in front of the Jin army's formation.
The army clears the attack range."
"Also, send two thousand archers to me and let me stand and shoot at a distance of a hundred paces to suppress the Jin army's archers. I don't care how many people die. If you don't clear the attack route for me within half an hour,
Let the forward general commit suicide on the spot!"
"The follow-up troops will continue to smoke. The Jin army is not allowed to see our armored machinemen from a distance of 200 steps. If they are exposed and bombarded by the Jin army's catapults, the whole team who smoked will be killed!"
After these orders were issued, Li Nanfeng smiled slightly at Zhuge Feilong: "Junior Brother Zhuge, the command of this armored machine man depends on you. Go to the front to guard the formation. The forward commander Li Nanxing is my biological brother. You can use me
This will pass and let him obey your command."
As he spoke, he handed a token to Zhuge Feilong. Zhuge Feilong held it directly in his arms and said loudly: "Senior Brother Li, you have to send more manpower to my brother. The essence of this Crane Wing Formation is
It is to expand the two wings and fight independently. If you do not break through the phalanx on the two wings that they extend to the front, if you rush in rashly from the center, the Jin army will be surrounded and attack the flanks. The only way is to penetrate their front line of defense and chase the broken troops in.
, to break the formation."
Li Nanfeng smiled and said: "Don't worry, I understand what you mean. As long as you penetrate the enemy's front line, I will dispatch ghost soldiers from behind to chase and kill them. In the last battle of Yuzhang, we cooperated to defeat them like this."
After defeating Liu Yi's army, this time, let us brothers join forces and fight the big one again."
Zhuge Feilong let out a long roar and rode away on his pony. His riding skills were obviously very poor. Before he could take two steps, he was staggered and almost fell off his horse. Finally, with the help of several sergeants, he stepped forward and pulled him again.
Reining the horse and stroking the horse's back again, he got off the horse tremblingly.
Zhuge Feilong cursed and punched the horse: "Damned thing, disobedient."
He turned to the array behind him and said in a deep voice: "Bring me my car quickly."
Several disciples rushed back and pushed out a large cart. On the cart was a six-foot-tall man with two legs like a human. There were four pulleys on the legs. There was an empty space four to five feet square above the waist.
There is a horse-drawn seat, standing in the middle of the seat, and two iron plates blocking the front of the seat, like a chariot with legs.
Li Nanfeng laughed: "Junior Brother Zhuge, why are you here again? I remember that I broke it last time in Jiankang."
Zhuge Feilong curled his lips: "It's just a walking mechanism, so what's the problem? I built one in Wulindu overnight yesterday, just in time for this battle." As he said, he jumped on the walking mechanism, and in
Before Maza, there were several operating levers. He put his hand up and held the lever with both hands, moving left and right. With this step, the machine suddenly jumped up from the car, leaped three feet away, and landed steadily in front of him.
He shook his head a few times, but still stood firm.
Li Nanfeng smiled and said: "Okay, do you want me to send some soldiers to protect you? I see that you are walking without weapons. If the Jin army comes, they won't be able to protect you."
Without saying a word, Zhuge Feilong controlled the walking machine and walked forward. He even waved his hand in the air: "No need, I can protect myself, and besides, there is your brother."
As he walked, he blew the horn, and soon, more than twenty walking mechanisms of similar size walked out from the Tianshi Dao disciples' formation behind them. And behind these mechanisms, five hundred holding weapons
Swords and Tianshi Dao sergeants wielding swords and guns came out.
