Xie Ying asked, and Guo Jia followed up with a detailed introduction, which immediately gave Xie Ying a refreshing feeling. Wengcheng is a small city outside the city gate. It is a defensive facility developed from the city wall to facilitate attacks and surround the city gate from all directions.
The enemy. Generally speaking, city attack battles in the cold weapon era were based on city gates. If the city gates were not breached, it would be difficult for the army to enter the city. It is impossible for all the troops to climb over the wall, right? The ancient giants
The walls of the city are several feet high and are not that easy to climb. In other words, if you can't attack the urn city, you can't attack the city gate. The urn city guards the city like a satellite or a door god, and it is indeed the best building to protect the city.|
"Oh! What about the others? I don't know much about the city's defense facilities! I know the city tower! It is the symbol of the city. Its majestic appearance shows the majesty of the city and the style of the nation. It is both a lookout and a general who guards the city.
The headquarters is also an extremely important shooting base.”
After hearing Guo Jia's introduction, Xie Ying asked with great interest.
"As the name suggests, the turrets are towers built on the four corners of the city wall. They are mainly used to make up for the weak defensive links at the corners of the city wall, thereby enhancing the defensive capabilities of the entire city wall. The horse face is an attached pier protruding outward in the city wall.
, because its shape is slender, like the face of a horse, so it is called. The design of the horse face not only enhances the firmness of the wall, but also eliminates blind spots on the battlefield during the city defense battle. Once the enemy approaches the city, the adjacent horses will face
The defenders can be organized into a cross-shooting net, allowing the intruders to be attacked from both sides and completely defeated. Generally, there is a horse face every 60 meters to 100 meters, and a tower and oars are built on the horse face to predict the enemy's situation, which is called a watch tower. The plane of the watch tower is in the shape of
Square, covering an area of 10.24 square meters, double-story. The four walls are made of bricks, with a hard top and a roof covered with tube tiles. The ground floor has an arched door on one side facing the city. There are wooden stairs in the building, a floor on the upper floor, and two arched windows on all four sides of the upper floor.
Kong. Looking up at the watch towers, they are like sentries standing in the forest. They are all awe-inspiring. The windows on the upper floors are like the eyes and ears of a giant. There are many watch towers. | They are even facing a certain street in the city, from which they can monitor
.It can be seen that both in peacetime and wartime, the watchtower also has the function of public security and prevention."
Guo Jia responded with a faint smile, and immediately continued to talk non-stop. After a pause, he continued: This book is reproduced in
"Guancheng is a small-scale city set outside the city gate. As soon as the enemy approaches, the city gate will be closed tightly and enemies approaching the main city will be attacked from behind. For the attacker, it is almost impossible if the attacker cannot break through Guancheng.
Conquering the main city is a bit similar to Wengcheng. | The only difference is the location of the building facilities!"
"These are special defensive measures set up at city gates and places vulnerable to attack in order to enhance the defensive effect of the city wall. Generally speaking, during an offensive war, the city wall assumes most of the defensive functions, and the role of these facilities is
It is very important. By the way, here is the most common parapet. It is a concave and convex low wall set on the city wall, which helps to avoid arrows shot by the enemy and attack the enemies below the city. The shooting holes are not only convenient for shooting, but also embedded
To catch the enemy's arrows, the parapet is the most common construction measure set up on the edge of the city wall to facilitate fighting. And in order to repel enemies who climb up the city wall, various construction facilities mentioned above are added."
"Well, other cities are okay. Wudu City and Yong'an City must be taken care of. I can imagine that all the building facilities that are beneficial to defense must be used. Wudu City and Yong'an City must be built into iron barrels.
You must not make any mistakes in the city! Immediately send an order to purchase a large amount and look for special architectural drawings of various cities! And send an order back to Taoyuan Valley to see if you can develop new special defense facilities yourself!"
After listening to Guo Jia's explanation, Xie Ying finally gained a new understanding of warfare in the ancient cold weapon era. After thinking about it, he immediately spoke.
"yes!"
All the evil shadow generals responded in unison.
"By the way, I have seen several types of buildings from the classics, so I will add them. One is the city wall that echoes and complements Fengxiao's Guancheng. The city wall is a wall and gate used for defense in war.
It is the weak point in the defense line. In order to strengthen the defense, a heavy gate was built outside the city gate along the wall to form another line of defense outside the inner gate, just enough to completely block the city gate. Used for
The city wall built to prevent the city gate from being directly exposed to the outside can effectively prevent siege equipment such as ramming cars from directly attacking the city gate. Another advantage is that it can open and close the city gate without the enemy noticing. | The effect of the city wall is as follows:
The urn city is similar, except that there is no entrance or exit door in the direction of the passage left by the city wall. There is another facility that is also used to enhance the defensive effect of the city gate, which is the hanging gate. The hanging gate is set up to enhance the defensive ability of the city gate from the rear.
The hanging board, with an iron sheet on the surface, uses the long and narrow groove dug in the door to move up and down. The pulleys set up in the gate tower can make the hanging door rise and fall freely, making the entrance and exit of the city gate faster, and can effectively block certain targets in time.
entrance. If the city wall is thick enough, I suggest that we can set up two gates at the city gate, one is an ordinary sliding gate, and the other is a hanging gate used in war. The third type is not used in Wudu City, that is
Yangma City, also known as Feng Yuan, is a low city wall built around the inside of the moat trench to contain enemies trying to cross the river. As the old saying goes, only the city besieges the people, but the only pond is the city! The pond is the barrier of the city, and the pond is the barrier of the city.
It is the moat. It is difficult for Wudu City to introduce a large amount of water, so it is basically difficult to build a moat. In fact, we can take a compromise approach and use iron caltrops or antlers, horse guns, horse pits, etc. all around the city wall to form a similar
You can also use the effect of the moat to build the outer perimeter of the Sheep and Horse City!"
Xun thought for a while and then added slowly.
"Well, it's best to add these three points! By the way, does Wen Yuan have any experience in defending the city?"
Xie Ying now wants to build Wudu City into a metal city. He wants to build all the defensive facilities he can think of. As he said this, he finally looked at Wudu City's main city, Zhang Liao.
"Now the city has prepared to accumulate a large number of weapons such as wolf-tooth bats, slugs, flying hooks, iron hitting wood, and piercing rings to attack and capture incoming enemies. It has also prepared gate-blocking knife carts, thousand-jin gates and other equipment to strengthen the defense of the city gate, and
Around the city wall, there are defensive equipment such as ground cranes, cranes, and ladders. I can guarantee that as long as the general is in Wudu City for one day, it will definitely be insurmountable for all enemy forces. If the city is still alive, people will die if it falls!"
After hearing Xie Ying's test, Zhang Liao immediately explained in a straight face, raised his head and spoke seriously.
