The last three kingdoms

Chapter 616

When the Shu army was stationed in Jincheng, the situation in Jincheng was still quite calm. Even the small group of Xianbei cavalry who had harassed Jincheng before had retreated quietly at this moment. The Xianbei people were shocked, and the bald tree machine was able to sit and watch Xiping fall and did not dare to act rashly anymore, so the area around Jincheng was calm as usual.

On the contrary, the wars in Liangzhou were raging. In Wuwei alone, the Xianbei people invested a considerable amount of troops in an attempt to take down Guzang. Xu Wu, the governor of Liangzhou, fought desperately.

When staying in Zhiyang, Liu Yindang did not rest. The function of the bald tree has been a disaster for Liangzhou for ten years. Whoever lost the game is what Liu Yin cares most about.

Historically, the bald tree machine has won countless battles in Liangzhou, but there were only two defeats. The first was defeated by Wen Yang in Xianning in three years, and the second was defeated by Ma Long in Xianning in five years.Wen Yang is one of the rare warriors. Throughout the entire Three Kingdoms era, only Lu Bu Zhao Yun can be compared with him. However, the era that Lu Bu Zhao Yun lived in was far from Wen Yang, making it impossible to see the strength of these strong men. Strong confrontation.

It is not an exaggeration to describe Wen Yang's life as tragic. The Wen family and Cao Shuang were close friends, which was also the main reason why Wen Qin and Wen Yang's father and son later rebelled against Wei and voted for Wu. Wen Yang shined brilliantly in the Battle of Huainan, A single-handed horse galloped across the formation of thousands of riders, beheaded hundreds of enemies, entered and exited six or seven times, and no one dared to come close to chasing riders. This victory is estimated to be comparable only to Zhao Zilong's seven ins and seven outs in Changbanpo.Later, under the persecution of Zhuge Dan, Wenyang returned to Wei. Because of this repeated "bad deeds", he was not used much throughout his life.

The bald tree machine rebelled in Liangzhou, and the court was already battered, and could no longer send any good generals. In the end, Sima Yan reluctantly ordered Wen Yang to lead his troops to quell the rebellion.Sure enough, Wenyang was not popular, and he was ordered to move the capital to governor Liang, Qin, and Yongzhou. The troops of the three prefectures of Liang, Qin, and Yongzhou destroyed the function of the bald tree, forced to land more than [-] barbarians, and became famous all over the world.But despite this, Wen Yang was still not reused by Sima Yan, and died in an unknown way during the Eight Kings Rebellion.

Wen Yang is too brave, and there is really no comparison. The person Liu Yin thought of breaking the Xianbei was Ma Long, another famous general of the Western Jin Dynasty.

Ma Long is the terminator of the functional rebellion in Bald Village. In terms of force value, he is not comparable to Wen Yang at all. The hair tree machine can carry out a decisive battle and break it, writing a glorious history in one fell swoop.

Liu Yin knew that Ma Long was not a heroic general like Wenyang Lu Bu. The reason why he dared to go deep into Hexi alone was because of something that he relied on, and what he relied on was the van.

The sidecar was not actually invented by Ma Jiang, but by the famous Zhuge Liang. At the beginning, Zhuge Liang deeply felt that the cavalry of the Wei army was strong, so he invented the sidecar in order to find a good way to defeat the enemy.

As the name suggests, the partial box car is a kind of vehicle with only one side and a box body. It has four wheels and can be pushed by a horse. There are holes in the box body for shooting arrows and spears.When in use, the chariots are connected according to the orientation of the eight formations, and an indestructible defensive formation can be formed, which can effectively resist the impact of the barbarian cavalry.

However, the invention of the van was after the wooden ox and the horse, Zhuge Liang was already dead at that time, so the van was not widely used in the army.In the post-Zhuge Liang era, those leading figures in the Shu Kingdom did not seem to value an invention of Zhuge Liang, and perhaps this semi-finished product will never be seen in the world again.

Ma Long didn't know how he obtained Zhuge Liang's design drawings of the van. Although this Wei and Jin man with the same surname as Ma Jun was not as famous as Ma Jun, he was indeed unique in terms of weapon innovation. .After improvement, Malone developed a new generation of partial vans and put them into mass production.

Relying on this extremely well-defended chariot, Ma Long marched for more than 1000 miles, and advanced while fighting. The Xianbei people tried to break through these vans like moths to the flames, but in the end they failed and suffered heavy losses.It was also by virtue of the van that Ma Long finally defeated the function of the bald tree and put down the Liangzhou Rebellion.

The first thing that Liu Yin thought of when he marched this time was naturally this kind of van. Fortunately, this kind of thing was invented by Zhuge Liang, which also gave Liu Yin an excuse.

Before the division of troops, cavalry accounted for the majority of Liu Yin's army. Naturally, this partial carriage was of no use, but would hinder the cavalry's movement.After the division of troops, Liu Yin had no more cavalry under his command, so he stepped up the building of sidecars.

The Liangzhou area is rich in poplars, so Liu Yin used poplars as raw materials, cut down trees for wood, and built sidecars.Fortunately, the precision requirements for these vehicles are not too strict, and there are some soldiers in the army who can do carpentry work. In addition, Liu Yin spent a lot of money in recruiting carpenters in the Jincheng area, just to complete the plan as soon as possible.

Liu Yin lingered in Zhiyang for more than ten days, built hundreds of vans, and mobilized enough food, grass, military equipment, and supplies to support an army of [-] for a year.

When Li Ling conquered the Xiongnu, he fought fiercely with the Xiongnu Shanyu for many days with only [-] infantry, killing and wounding a large number of Xiongnu cavalry, and was forced to surrender to the Xiongnu because they ran out of ammunition and food.If Li Ling had enough arrows and food, maybe history would repeat itself. Even if he was defeated and captured, Li Ling still created a battle example in which infantry resisted cavalry with a weak enemy. , nor is there no chance.

Nowadays, people in the world have little confidence in infantry fighting cavalry. Except for hiding in deep mountains and old forests like Shu soldiers, and hiding in rivers and rivers like Wu soldiers, Cao Wei's cavalry can be said to be invincible in the world. It is rare to meet an opponent.Liu Yin defeated the Wei cavalry in the Battle of Guanlong, and he did not win with infantry. captured the Wei cavalry.

But this time, Liu Yin did not leave another cavalry unit by his side, and directly faced the Xianbei people who claimed to have 2 people with more than [-] infantry, but Liu Yin was still confident and built enough side-car chariots , Liu Yin has been able to guarantee that he is invincible.

The chariots are rumbling, and history seems to have gone back to the era of chariots in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. Liu Yin led his army to leave Zhiyang, march towards Wuwei, and began the battle to pacify Liangzhou.
