After a while, Li Xin, Xin Sheng, Zhang Han and other generals of the Qin army also arrived.

Han Teng said: "Generals, today's battle with the Dai army is going very badly, if it weren't for the reinforcements in the big camp arriving at the right time, we would probably be defeated, but despite this, we still dismantled nearly 20,000 troops in this battle, and more than 400 chariots were damaged, even my giant Han army, more than half of them were demolished, and most of the remaining were injured, and in the short term, they could no longer go into battle, and the Dai army had a new cavalry army, with all men and horses, and it was unstoppable, so I recruited everyone over, I just want to discuss with you how the next battle should be carried out, and how we should deal with the armored cavalry of the representative army, please speak freely and without any scruples. ”

Although Li Xin, Xin Sheng, Zhang Han and others had not seen the battle of the heavy armored cavalry, they had heard others talk about it after returning to the camp, and they also knew that the soldiers of the Kua's father clan had also been beaten with heavy casualties, so they naturally did not dare to underestimate the combat effectiveness of the heavy armored cavalry.

I saw Meng Wu come out and say: "General, I think that the best way to deal with the Dai Army's Jujia cavalry is that our Great Qin also formed a Jujia cavalry army, and with the manpower and material resources of our Qin State, it is not difficult to make horse armor and select horses, so it is completely possible to form such a cavalry army to confront the Dai army." ”

Although Han Teng apologized to Meng Wu and Meng Tian's father just now, Meng Wu's hostility towards Han Teng was not eliminated, but the heavy armored cavalry of the Dai army reminded Meng Wu, because with the conditions of the Qin State, of course, it is possible to form a heavy armored cavalry army, since the heavy armored cavalry army has such a strong combat effectiveness, even the soldiers of the Kuafu clan are inferior, so if the Qin army also forms a heavy armored cavalry army, it can not only enhance the combat effectiveness of the Qin army, but also be able to balance Han Teng, but such a cavalry army cannot fall into the hands of Han Teng, The Meng family must master this cavalry.

Of course, Han Teng didn't know that Dao Mengwu still had so many ideas, and said: "What General Meng said is indeed the best policy, but it is not easy to form such an armored cavalry army, and it is difficult to form an army without a year and a half. And if you really want to compete with the cavalry of the Dai Army, I don't know when, although our cavalry has all been replaced with new horse furniture, and the combat effectiveness has made great progress, but compared with the cavalry of the Dai Army, there is still a distance to go. What's more, the war in front of him is even more distant and can't quench the thirst of the near, and the current war, I don't know if General Meng has any good way? ”

At this time, Meng Tian said: "General, there is a way for the general to arrive, but I don't know if it is feasible?" ”

Han Teng hurriedly said: "General Meng has any good plan, don't visit and say it, let's discuss it together." ”

Meng Tian said: "It is to use the chariot to deal with the armored cavalry of the Dai Army. ”

Han Teng was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the chariots Meng Tian was referring to his newly made chariots. Therefore, he frowned and said, "General Meng thinks that the chariot can deal with the armored cavalry?" ”

Meng Tian smiled slightly, and said, "Do the generals and generals think that the chariot is not satisfactory in today's battle, so they think that the chariot is difficult to match the armored cavalry of the acting army?" ”

Han Teng nodded and said, "That's true." Li Xin, Xin Sheng, Zhang Han and others also nodded slightly, because in this battle, the performance of the chariot can be said to be very bad, and it can even be described as clumsy, and it has no invincible momentum in the previous battle, so Han Teng's confidence in the chariot has also dropped significantly, and the rest of the generals are similar to Han Teng's ideas, and everyone is not very optimistic about Meng Tian's proposal.

Meng Tian shook his head and said: "The performance of the chariot in this battle is not good, firstly, we attack, defend on behalf of the army, everyone knows that the defending side on the battlefield can always have a certain advantage, and can also build some defensive fortifications in advance, so the performance of the chariot is not good, and it is understandable; If we could have sent some infantry to fight with the chariot to help clear various obstacles on the battlefield, and protect both sides of the chariot from attacking the wheels of the chariot, the result would probably have been different, and by the time we sent the infantry later, it would have been too late. ”

After listening to Meng Tian's speech, Han Teng couldn't help but show a contemplative look, and Li Xin, Xin Sheng, Zhang Han and others also exchanged their heads and talked about each other.

After all, in this era, the chariot has been developed for nearly a thousand years, and the tactics, training, logistics, and maintenance are very mature. Later, countries began to assemble cavalry, so that some cavalry troops were also added to the armies that fought with the chariots.

On the battlefield, the way the chariot fights will depend on the battle situation, either the chariot will attack alone, or fight in conjunction with the accompanying armored soldiers, there is no fixed rule. Although these chariots made by Han Teng are novel in style and have stronger combat effectiveness, they are not much different in essence from the transmission car, it is nothing more than that they do not need to be dragged by war horses, and they can rely on the soldiers in the car to generate power to move forward. Therefore, in terms of tactics, it is basically the same as the passing car, and it still needs to work together with the infantry.

At this time, Meng Tian said: "The defense of the chariot itself is very strong, and it can completely block the frontal impact of the Daijun Jujia cavalry, but the sides and wheels are the weakness of the chariot, so if it can be equipped with a certain number of infantry to protect both sides of the chariot, it should be able to compete with the Daijun Jujia cavalry, but the chariot does not need to be dragged by the war horse, only by its own driving, the speed is not fast, it is not as good as the cavalry, and it also needs to be equipped with some cavalry, and the chariot, riding, and foot fight together." However, these are just some of the ideas of the general, whether it is useful or not, it is not known, and some necessary training must be carried out before you can go into battle, please decide to the general. ”

As soon as Meng Tian finished speaking, Li Xin immediately said: "General, the last general thinks that General Meng's words are reasonable, and he may be able to compete with the armored cavalry of the Dai Army, so he will not visit General Meng to give it a try." ”

Xin Sheng also said: "Yes, you can train for a few days first, and then see the effect, if it is useful, of course it is better, if it is not useful, we will think of other ways." ”

In fact, after listening to Meng Tian's words, Han Teng estimated in his heart that Meng Tian's suggestion was at least six or seven percent sure, after all, these chariots made by himself were fully enclosed and could drive automatically, no matter how strong and fierce the impact of the heavily armored cavalry was, it would be impossible to break through the wall of the chariot, and it would definitely not be able to hit the chariot in the future, so as long as the sides of the chariot were protected, it could completely confront the heavy armored cavalry.

However, as Meng Tian said, although this idea is good, no one can say how effective it is, and it is necessary to conduct a certain amount of training, and even conduct several confrontation drills before we can know whether the road will work. But the person who can organize, train, and command the chariots, horses, and foot to fight together can only be Meng Tian, which means that the chariot must be handed over to Meng Tian to command.

Although on the battlefield, Han Teng handed over the Kuabu clan warriors to Meng Tian for command, but it was a temporary decision on the battlefield, and the Kuabu clan's warriors were human beings after all, and they had considerable subjective initiative. The chariot is different, because the chariot is a dead thing, and it is commanded by Meng Tian, which is equivalent to handing over the chariot to Meng Tian, and you can watch the details of the chariot in detail at will.

Before this battle, the chariot was also regarded as a big help by Han Teng, and it was extremely important, and it was also kept extremely closely, and it was not allowed to be watched by other Qin soldiers at close range, and once it was handed over to Meng Tian's command, it was equivalent to completely leaving Meng Tian undefended. But now none of the people under Han Teng have the ability to organize, train, and command chariots, horses, and infantry to fight together. Therefore, Han Teng did hesitate in his heart.

But if it can't effectively fight against the Jujia cavalry of the Dai Army, it is impossible to win this battle, which will greatly affect Han Teng's status in the Qin State, and as far as the current situation is concerned, Han Teng must also rely on the Qin State and cannot develop independently, so this battle cannot be lost.

After weighing the pros and cons in Han Teng's heart for a short time, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, General Meng, I will transfer fifty chariots to you in the next day, and you will train them." Whether or not we can stand up to the Dai Army's Jujia cavalry is up to you. ”

Meng Tian hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, the general will definitely do his best." ”

In fact, Meng Tian has a psychological bottom, knowing that his method is at least more than eighty percent feasible, he still has considerable confidence in the tactics of the chariot, and at the same time he also wants to observe the structure of these chariots made by Han Teng at close range, and the Qin State will naturally have to control it in the future, and when the Qin State forms its own armored cavalry army, and at the same time creates the same chariot, it can not only effectively balance Han Teng, but also get rid of the dependence on Han Teng.

On the second day, Han Teng really pulled out fifty chariots, including fifteen thunderbolt chariots and arrow killing chariots, and ten collision chariots and Ruyi chariots, and handed them over to Meng Tian for command training, and at the same time sent Cao Wuxian to Meng Tian as an assistant.

In fact, Han Teng's intention is also very obvious, even if Cao Wuxian follows Meng Tian to learn the way of using soldiers, because this opportunity is very rare, and now among the people under Han Teng, Cao Wushu is the person with the strongest military ability, and after several years of fighting, he has also accumulated a lot of combat experience, which is naturally Han Teng's focus on training, and it will be of great use in the future.
