Li Mengxi said that fishing nets have three uses. One is to catch fish when encountering water during the march to supplement food. The other is to serve as a survival tool for the army in case the mountains and rivers are exhausted.

This dual purpose.

"Xi'er, you said that fishing nets can be used for three purposes. I wonder, what about the third use? Tell me quickly." Guan Yu wanted to hear what happened immediately, so he urged.

The calm Guan Yu couldn't wait anymore, Li Mengxi was good enough.

"This third use..." Li Mengxi suddenly raised his head and looked at Guan Yu. Li Mengxi looked Guan Yu up and down, and then asked with a strange expression, "General Guan, if someone comes with a net to surround you, and uses lime to enchant the general's eyes,

, and also used powerful crossbows to shoot, and also attacked with sticks and ropes. With the bravery of a general, can it be possible to defeat it?"

When Li Mengxi said this, Guan Yu was immediately stunned.

However, after being stunned, Guan Yu once again put himself in his shoes and thought about it. If one day, a group of people threw a net at him, his hands and feet would definitely be caught in the net in his haste. At this time, someone would throw lime again. If not, his eyes would be blocked.

Confused, this is a dangerous time.

If the powerful crossbows and sharp arrows come again, they will be unstoppable.

Such a destructive method...

Guan Yu looked at Li Mengxi with a subtle look.

"It is difficult to deal with such a dangerous situation." Guan Yu replied sincerely.

Li Mengxi roughly understood that when he lost his horse and was killed by the enemy who had prepared for it with fishing nets, ropes, lime crossbows and other weapons, even Guan Yu's bravery would end in a very embarrassing situation.

Guan Yu pondered for a moment and pointed out the shortcomings of Li Mengxi's sinister idea, "Xi'er, the fishing net is light. If you want to use the fishing net to capture the enemy general, the soldiers will be injured if they are close, and the net will be thrown to the ground if it is far away, so it will not be able to entangle the enemy.

You might as well use a tripping horse rope." Guan Yu pointed out Li Mengxi's shortcomings with his own knowledge and provided better suggestions to Li Mengxi.

"...Tripping the horse rope?" Suddenly hearing a familiar term from ancient wars, Li Mengxi's eyes widened instantly.

Li Mengxi is no stranger to the tripping horse rope thing. He has often seen it in movies and TV series.

A sling is usually a long rope, and it can only be used by at least two soldiers working together.

A soldier pulled one end and straightened a long rope, laying it across the path of the enemy general. The rope was very thin, and the horse moved very fast. It was difficult to see the rope when he was anxious. If he was not careful, the horse's hoof was tripped by the rope.

The enemy general's horse stumbled and was thrown to pieces. He was captured before he could get up.

Li Mengxi asked Guan Yu if the tripping rope was just a rope, and Guan Yu said yes.

At this time, Li Mengxi's technical soul was burning again.

Li Mengxi has seen some videos of horse racing. In equestrian competitions, those contestants riding horses over very high obstacles are just like playing.

The height of the human body is the height at which the human body can easily exert force when pulling the rope. The tightest rope should be pulled in a tug-of-war-like posture. That is, the rope is pulled at the height of the waist, that is, two 1.7-meter-seven soldiers pull up the stumbling rope.

, the height of the tripping rope is only a little over one meter.

At this height, if the enemy general is on guard, he can simply lift the reins and jump over directly with the horse's jumping ability.

Therefore, Li Mengxi thought of creating a stumbling rope that the war horses could not cross.

Since the war horse must not be able to cross, the height of the trip rope must be very high, so high that even if the war horse jumps, the high rope can still stop the war horse.

However, due to limitations of a person's height and human body structure, there is no way to tighten the rope when the rope is raised above the head.

A good idea that Li Mengxi thought of was to tie the rope to the gun. The two spearmen grabbed the gun and pulled it to both sides. Wouldn't it be like pulling up a high tripping rope?

Li Mengxi expressed his thoughts, and Guan Yu chuckled, shaking his head while laughing, making Li Mengxi confused.

What went wrong? Li Mengxi was confused.

Later, the experienced Guan Yu explained to Li Mengxi why it was useless to tie the trip horse rope to the head of the gun.

First, the impact of the war horse was so strong that instead of tripping the horse's hooves, he tried to raise the trip rope to block the horse. With the force of the charge of the war horse, the two spearmen with guns collided with the horse's chest against the raised rope.

At this time, the spearmen will be knocked into the air and will not be able to intercept them at all.

Even if several people hold the gun together, they will still be knocked away if they don't have the same strength.

Furthermore, on the battlefield, everything is changing rapidly. When you see that the enemy is about to escape, you quickly throw out a rope. The two of you pull it, and the trip horse rope can be pulled in an instant.

If the rope is tripped over the gun, you have to put the gun down first and then tighten the rope. It is too slow. In 99% of the cases, there is no time to tie the rope, and the enemy general will already be there.

Escaped. The practicality is too low.

Furthermore, if the trip rope is lowered, it will have a surprise effect. If it is raised so high, the enemy will see it at a glance. Wouldn't it be a reminder that there is an ambush ahead?

The most effective height of the snagging rope, the height where the horse is most likely to trip up, is just right on the tibia of the war horse's leg, that is, if we compare it to a human, it is in the middle of everyone's calf bone.

Moreover, the situation where the trip rope is most effective is when the enemy general does not see the trip rope.

Therefore, lowering the trip rope is the most cost-effective way.

And as Li Mengxi thought, even if he raised the rope high, not even an enemy general could stop him.

It turned out that Li Mengxi learned a lot.

The topic returns to the tripping rope itself. Guan Yu mentioned the tripping rope because he felt that Li Mengxi's idea of ​​using a fishing net to catch the general was not practical, so he gave Li Mengxi some advice.

Li Mengxi thought about how Tamasuo captured the enemy general.

The scene is probably like this -

There was such a big group of people. Every two soldiers had a long rope. After tightening it, they pulled the rope directly to hit the enemy general.

A long, taut rope is like a long bamboo pole. The enemy's weapons are limited in length and cannot cut down the soldiers holding both ends of the long rope. At most, they can only cut the rope with one knife.

Cut off one, and there will be another. Before the enemy general can take two steps to catch up, another rope sweeps over like a bamboo pole. If he wants to avoid being knocked down, the enemy general can only cut the rope with his sword again.

Then, another rope came.

A general who can cut off the sweeping ropes one after another without missing a beat is a military commander with a relatively high force value.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The rope is coming at you, or like a tripping rope, it is passing close to the ground, trying to trip the enemy general.

At this time, will the enemy jump or not?

He jumped on the spot and avoided the despicable rope that hit his calf. At this time, he was in the air. If another rope hit him and he had nowhere to use his strength, wouldn't he fall down in one fell swoop?

If the soldiers had trained in capture tactics in advance, dozens of soldiers would pull long ropes, blocking the left and right, and the ropes would alternately wrap around the enemy generals. No one could escape from this rope formation.

In the end, those who conquer the enemy will have unparalleled courage, and will eventually be tied up tightly with dozens of long ropes pulled by soldiers.

A general with strong force value can cut off a bunch of ropes, but if there are too many ropes, it will be enough to tire the opponent to death.

No matter how bad it is, when the enemy general breaks hundreds of ropes, even a group of farmers pulling long ropes can delay a fierce general for a long time. This is similar to the role of the wolf in the mandarin duck formation.

The wolf warrior can isolate the Japanese pirates who are fierce in martial arts and prevent them from getting close.

A long rope can also contain fierce enemy generals with excellent armor and superb martial arts from a distance.

If you want to catch people alive, but don't want to tie up our soldiers and cause a lot of casualties in order to catch them alive, you can use the rope formation method.

If that doesn't work, you can also use a bear trap when using a rope formation.

Break off the animal trap, throw it all around the enemy, and then run away? Take a step, and there will be a click, and your feet will be caught.

Even if the enemy kicks the clips away one by one without stepping on the clips, the speed will definitely not be faster.

When it comes to avoiding the gap in the trap, when attention is put on the feet, how much ability will the enemy have left to defend against cold arrows?

If the "trapping rope" and the animal trap are not enough, then use a noose. Tie the rope in a loop, swing the noose, and then after aiming it, it will fly towards the enemy general's head with a swish.

If it doesn't work, just use it twice. Besides, the noose cannot catch anyone. It is equally effective to put it on the enemy's weapon and pull the enemy's weapon off.

In addition, the noose and the hoop worked together, and the hoop blocked the horse's legs. The others threw the rope loop at the rider on the horse, and maybe the rider would be pulled off while the noose was in place.

The lasso thing is also extremely simple and easy to use.

Guan Yu only mentioned a snagging rope, but Li Mengxi had developed so many uses. The more he talked about it, the more excited he became.

Li Mengxi asked, if there is an order to capture the enemy general alive in the future, we must not let our soldiers turn their guns upside down and use their knives to fight with the enemy generals in an attempt to capture them alive.

None of our soldiers are worthless than the enemy generals. We can never exchange our soldiers for capturing the enemy generals alive, even if he is the commander-in-chief of the enemy army.

The lives of our soldiers are of the utmost importance.

Guan Yu and Liu Bei agreed very much with what Li Mengxi said. They both secretly remembered that in future battles, they must not issue any military orders to capture enemy generals alive. This order is undoubtedly an attempt to kill our soldiers.

If you really want to capture the enemy general alive, you should use specific tactics while preserving the lives of our soldiers - such as shooting a crossbow at the enemy general's leg, which will not kill you but also destroy the enemy general's combat ability; such as throwing a trap

Throw it on the enemy general's head, tie the enemy general's neck and pull him violently, dragging the enemy general around, dragging him half to death on the ground, and capture him alive without any casualties.

There is no one better than Li Mengxi who can take one example and reverse three.

Li Mengxi formulated a complete set of tactics for capturing generals, which required targeted training for all soldiers.

The key to capturing general tactics lies in the rope.

Li Mengxi thought about various ropes such as hemp ropes, leather ropes, etc. that he had seen recently. Li Mengxi believed that a rope that was too thin would not work. A rope that was too thin would not only be weak, but if the rope was too light and weightless, the loop would reach the enemy.

It's not easy to throw accurately when thrown over the head, it's too floaty.

Therefore, Li Mengxi believed that the rope should be as thick as a thumb.

Then a question arises. Not to mention the tripping rope, it is just a rope loop used to trap enemy generals. It must be at least four or five meters long. Do you want soldiers to carry such a long rope with them?

A slight inconvenience.

Carrying a long rope is inconvenient, but a short rope is slightly necessary.
