Zhu Wei also studied some siege equipment that he saw on the Internet with great interest. Of course, he just saw it for a while, not really researching how to make it.

Zhu Wei found that some siege equipment was not directly used to attack the city. For example, the nest car, also known as the Wanglou car, looked like a crane, and was used to climb high to observe the enemy's situation.

There are wheels at the bottom of the nest car that can be pushed back and forth, and the watchtower hanging high on the car is like a bird's nest, allowing people to stand inside and see the local city wall and the defensive information in the city.

Some seem to be used on the battlefield. For example, tiger carts seem to be spear carts and knife carts used to break through the enemy's formation. In fact, they are transformed from trolleys into assault carts, with spears tied to them and blades inlaid.

It is said that the high pet car in Yue Chuan said that the iron block may be this type of battle equipment. It is said that Han Xin also used this kind of tiger car to surround Xiang Yu in the early Han Dynasty, so that Xiang Yu's super force could not be used. , like a beast surrounded by a knife wall.

However, according to Zhu Wei's knowledge, the real siege vehicles are the rushing carts, ladder carts, and cave carts.

The so-called Chongche, also known as the opposite building, should be a siege device that destroys the city walls or gates with the force of collision.

But judging from the frame picture seen by Zhu Wei, Chongche seems to be a siege tower with eight wheels and five stories high. The soldiers, however, did not see the equipment crashing into the city walls and gates at all.

Zhu Wei really didn't know how it destroyed the city walls or gates, and why it was called a dashing car, maybe there was a hidden collision pole underneath.

Then the ladder car has a ladder, just like the ladder structure on a modern fire truck, except that there is a hook at the front end of the ladder that can be hooked on the city wall, and then the soldiers who attack the city can climb up the ladder. It is easier to be pushed away directly on the city wall, and it can also make the siege soldiers climb more at ease.

The last type of siege equipment, the cave house car, is like a moving wooden house, where soldiers can hide in it to withstand the enemy's bows and arrows and falling rocks on the city wall.

As long as the cave cart is pushed close to the city wall, the soldiers hiding inside can dig and destroy the city wall, thereby making a breach in the city wall.

After gunpowder was available in later generations, it seems that they first dug the city to dig out the hole, and then blasted it with gunpowder, so that it would be easy to break the city.

Of course, this is all theoretically feasible. In fact, it takes a lot of time to build these siege equipment, and it is easy to be burned by the defenders. After all, these equipment are made of wood.

But if the siege party has siege equipment, it is indeed much easier to attack the city.

Uh, well, when Zhu Wei saw these siege equipment for the first time on the Internet, it was a very simple feeling, which was much different from the tall and tall imagined in his mind.

But now Zhu Wei is a little thankful for the simplicity of these siege equipment. If it is really as complicated as it is tall and complicated, Zhu Wei will have no way to learn from it.

Moreover, Zhu Wei's manpower is limited now, and he can't make too complicated things, so Zhu Wei can't help thinking whether he can learn from these siege equipment he has seen and design a simple and convenient siege equipment that can help him open The houses, dock gates or high walls of these powerful families.

Perhaps Zhu Wei didn't know anything about mechanical design, but many of the instruments were very simple in principle, and any craftsman could make them.

The so-called innovation is nothing more than the germination of inspiration. Sometimes a small change can produce trans-age significance.

Naturally, Zhu Wei doesn't need any inspiration, as long as he thinks with his common sense of modern society, he can come up with many trans-epochal things.

These ideas may not be felt by Zhu Wei at ordinary times, but they are very common things in his opinion. When Zhu Wei needs to do something, these common senses will naturally pop up in his head.

But in this year, it may be a genius idea.

So while recalling the structure of Zu's house, Zhu Wei thought about what kind of siege equipment he could use to break through it. Soon Zhu Wei had an idea in his mind. He thought he might be able to make a simple siege. City vehicles or siege ladders come.

After all, the walls of private houses and docks would not be too high, otherwise they would no longer be houses and docks, but cities.

Although many local systems have collapsed in recent years, the local gentry and powerful families can build military forts like Wubao at will to protect their families, but the scale of this type of military fortress is still limited. .

On the one hand, building a city-like fortress requires a lot of manpower, material resources, financial resources and a lot of time, and ordinary local families do not have this ability.

And the real powerful family may have the background of building cities, but such powerful families often have enough ability to control cities such as local counties and counties, so why bother to rebuild the city by themselves.

On the other hand, it is naturally restricted by the government. Although the Eastern Han Dynasty may not be able to control local affairs, even the warlords who control the locality will not allow uncontrolled private cities to exist in their own territory.

With a city, you can control the people in the countryside hundreds of miles around, and it is enough to stand on your own in the place.

Therefore, it is tolerable to build a small military fortress like Wubao to protect your family, but if you want to build a city, there will be problems.

What exactly do you want to do, do you want to rebel, or do you want to seize power?
Therefore, there are also restrictions on the construction of houses and Ubbats by the local gentry and powerful families, especially the high walls of ordinary houses, which are at most two or three feet high and two steps thick.

Even if it is the fort wall of Wubao, at most it is a little thicker, and people can stand on it. As for the height, it must be the same.

Therefore, the walls of ordinary houses cannot withstand strong impact or excavation. Compared with attacking the well-defended main entrance of ordinary local families, it may be easier to destroy a hole by using siege equipment to select a wall as a target.

Just like the Zu family's house before, if you attack the main entrance, you must first destroy the wooden gate, and then smash open the thick gate tied with thick wooden strips.

This period of time was enough for the people of the Zu family to re-build a new defensive formation on the square inside the main gate.

But if you use Zhu Wei's game system map to find a place in Zu's house and directly open a hole in the courtyard wall, the people in Zu's house don't know how to block the hole, and there is no way to make a hole in it. There is a new defensive formation.

In addition, if you are dealing with those local powerful families who own Wubao, you can use a simple ladder car. Anyway, the wall of the castle is not high, and it is convenient to charge up with a ladder.

Unless they dug a trench around the courtyard wall, they may need to fill the trench before they can get close to the courtyard wall.

But for those who have siege equipment, this is just a little more effort...
