According to Guan Yu's plan, he starved the prisoners for a whole day and still didn't give them anything to eat at night.

Li Mengxi went to inspect the prisoner camp, and before he got there, he heard the cry of a child.

Li Mengxi immediately felt that this arrangement was inappropriate.

The core of recruiting is to recruit young people. Those women and children, especially children, have little ability to resist and are unwilling to resist.

If we talk about killing the fighting spirit of prisoners, then what kind of fighting spirit do we need to kill in children?

Therefore, the old, weak, women and children should be singled out and fed.

If you want to be hungry, you can only be young and strong.

Li Mengxi ordered at that time to check the number of people and pick out all the old, weak, women and children to serve a meal.

When the porridge was cooked, Li Mengxi squatted aside and watched. It wasn't until the women and children had eaten that he happily walked away.

As for the young man's stall only a dozen steps away, who cares, he won't die of hunger for a day.

Did Li Mengxi yawn and leave the prisoner camp in exhaustion?

To be fair, he didn't sleep the whole night last night with the carpenters building siege equipment and practicing siege tactics.

It's like two days and two nights without sleep.

Adults can handle it, but Li Mengxi is still a child.

——

Torches, vans, afterimages.

Li Mengxi rubbed his sleepy cheeks and shook his head vigorously to drive away the sleepiness.

I was sitting outside the carriage with a thin wooden board on my knees and a large piece of paper spread out on the wooden board. The paper was very big, much larger than the wooden board.

Picking up his pen, Li Mengxi stared at the hazy moon in the sky in a daze for a long time.

Then, after clarifying his thoughts, Li Mengxi started writing.

"The ant attachment of siege tactics.

The ants rely on equipment to attack the city, the second is manpower, the third is coordination, and the fourth is rewards.

The equipment is temporarily familiar with the siege ladder and siege spine.

[Siege Ladder], the simplest way to make a siege ladder is to cut wood into four pieces and get two pairs of main shafts.

Then, cut a step-shaped gap on the main shaft, insert the steps on it, and then tie the brake with a straw rope. In this way, there is no need to dig or chisel, it is extremely simple.

It is also known that when building a siege ladder, you should first look at the height of the city and then measure the length of the ladder.

If the ladder is short, it can be extended. The extended ladder uses a riveted falcon structure, which is strong and fast.

Regarding the steps, the steps should be square instead of round. Because the cylinder is smooth, it is easy to slip when you step on it in a hurry. From this we also know that the hilt of the sword cannot be round, either oval or multi-corrugated.

The same goes for steps. The round handle is slippery and lacks a sense of grip.

This is not only true for sword handles, but also for other short-hand soldiers. Round handles are not suitable for actual combat.

As for the impact of the width of the siege ladder on combat,"

As he wrote this, Li Mengxi frowned, looked up at the sky, and tried to recall the scene of the village warriors carrying ladders in two rows during last night's practice.

So, he went on to write, "The siege ladder can be wide, not narrow.

As for the severity, it is not the key.

【Siege Vertebra】

The siege vertebra is a tool for breaking the door, and it is several times more difficult to build than the siege ladder. The most difficult thing is the wheels, and the second most difficult thing is the roof.

The wheels can be taken from baggage trucks or ready-made wheels, which greatly reduces labor hours.

The roof of the shed is the most important part of the siege. Firstly, it must prevent the gold juice from boiling and the roof of the shed must be dense. Secondly, it must prevent the falling of wood and boulders. The roof of the shed must be strong. Both of them are indispensable.

It is also known that although it is not known how Jinglan makes siege towers, if wheels are needed, they are extremely difficult to make, so they can still be used for baggage convoys.

[Siege tactics] - [Turtle shell siege ladder method]

This method has been tested in actual combat and can be used.

The details are as follows:

1. Preparation before war.

Manpower coordination: There is a problem with the organization of the rebel army. It is not yet possible to actively coordinate the high and low levels, so additional efforts are needed.

Covering the shield: Use a square shield to cover the ladder to cover the arrows flowing above. Use a square shield instead of a round shield, because the round shield has a dead corner and cannot be properly covered.

Two, in battle.

When charging with a ladder, if someone is hit by an arrow halfway, they will be unable to fight anymore, so they are allowed to retreat on their own.

Three, and the city.

Removal of shield.

If the person on the right lets go, the shield will fall to the ground in an instant. Because the person on the left carrying the ladder carries the shield with his right hand, his right hand is strong and the ladder will not fall easily. This is the difference between the left and right hands.

And when the siege ladder reaches the bottom of the city, several people in the front hold up the ladder and lean on it, and the first two people hold up the shield ladder.

The shield soldiers in the back row cannot move forward for a while, so they should form a turtle shell shield formation to protect themselves from arrows.

Fourth, lift the ladder.

If the siege ladder is pushed down by the city head, the siege ladder will be heavy and difficult for one person to hold.

If lifting a ladder, at least five or six people should work together.

When carrying up the ladder, you should hold up your shield, hold it up to the top of the city, cover your body, and walk backwards. You should not walk with your back to the city head, so that your back will be exposed to the rain of arrows. Walk to the siege ladder, lift the ladder, and then build the city.

If the siege ladder is knocked down again, repeat the process of raising the ladder.

Furthermore, if someone falls to the ground under the city after being hit by an arrow, and is unable to evacuate in a hurry, you can throw a shield over his torso to protect his life. This is why the siege team carries shields on both sides."

At this point in writing the siege tactics, Li Mengxi had finished writing the tactics he had figured out last night. He stopped writing and thought for a moment, and then clearly remembered the content of Guan Yu's instructions.

"The key to siege warfare is coordination.

Men and siege equipment should be matched. The more siege equipment the better.

There are two hundred troops and twenty siege ladders.

At this time, the ten siege ladders should be abandoned and only ten should be left to ensure that each team has sufficient manpower and not to resort to fuel tactics due to weak manpower..."

"Sieging a city is more difficult than breaking a formation. Breaking the formation requires elite soldiers with heavy armor as the vanguard. Climbing the city also requires heavy armor.

The army's armor defense was insufficient and it could not withstand a tough battle.

It is urgent to be a foot soldier."

"【Reward】

Even if there are plenty of manpower, all the equipment, and good coordination, when it comes to a siege battle, the casualties will be heavy and the soldiers will be very worried.

At this time, the top priority is to reward the soldiers before the battle, to dispel the scruples of the soldiers, and to boost their morale.

Reward can be divided into three categories: "reward for merit", "compassion for death", and "care for the queen". They need to be clearly stated one by one, and none of them can be missing.

They only talk about rewards for merit, but the soldiers look forward to merit but are afraid of death, and worry about their relatives.

He only said that he would be rewarded for his merits and would be grateful for his death. The soldiers looked forward to their merits and strived to be the first, and they were brave and not afraid of death. However, they still doubted whether the compensation after death would be in the hands of their relatives, so they could not show their full courage.

Only by properly arranging everything before and after death can soldiers be brave and fearless.

"

What Li Mengxi understood was that he considered the four main cores of siege: troops, equipment, coordination, and rewards.

These four aspects respectively involve manpower, material resources, coordination, and morale. Li Mengxi wrote them one by one with the help of a torch.

When I finished writing, the ink on the pen was dry, and the large paper rolled to the bottom was full of writing. I wrote three pages, containing thousands of words.

However, it is not finished yet.

Li Mengxi quietly got back into the car, fearing to wake his younger brother. He carefully took out a new piece of paper under the pillow.

"Related supplements for gold trauma surgery.

1: The making process of catgut should be in a sterile environment.

Two: Use pigs as experimental subjects. There is no anesthesia. Pigs are small and easy to tie and fix. Cows cannot be used and are difficult to control.

3: The medical instruments for suturing surgery include catgut (the composition of catgut has not been determined yet and is to be tested), suture needles (if there are no needles thin enough, you can find or buy them at your own time), scissors (if you don’t have them, you can find them at your own time).

Or buy), razor (not available, need to find a blacksmith to make it)."

These are some problems discovered during the day and some experiences gained while working in Tianbu for a long time.

Li Mengxi wrote it all down.

There should be no more.

By the way, there is more.

"As for the placement of captives, the focus of recruiting them is young and strong.

Women, children, the elderly and the weak, etc., really don’t need to be embarrassed.”

Li Mengxi scribbled a sentence in a hurry, then thought about it again, and found that there was nothing else.

"Sleep!" He muttered to himself, took out the torch, threw it on the ground, rolled it around a few times and stomped on it to put it out.

Then, I went back to the carriage to rest with peace of mind.
Chapter completed!
