There are also dense wooden wheels installed at the bottom of the entire tower, especially to Kuai Yue and Lu Su's surprise, the structure on the top of the tower.

There is a platform on the top of the tower, with guardrails on both sides of the platform, the rear edge is connected to the steps, and the front edge is a hinged chain to lock a liftable suspension bridge, just like the suspension bridge at the city gate, except that the two nooses that crimp the suspension bridge are connected to the two columns on the left and right of the platform, with pulleys on the columns and winchs under the columns. Through pulleys, winchs and nooses, the suspension bridge can be lifted and lowered freely.

If this siege car is brought close to the city wall, as long as the suspended suspension bridge descends and sets up the battlements, a terrifying troop transport passage can be set up between the city tower and the ground immediately. Following this passage, the infantry of the siege can easily kill the city head, without having to climb up the ladder by rolling wood, rocks, tinder and arrows.

In fact, this is the improved type of bamboo siege ladder that Ma Butcher came up with when he attacked Hulao Pass.

However, the bamboo structure has been replaced with a wooden structure. Compared with the bamboo structure, the advantage of the wooden structure is that its size has become smaller and its strength has been enhanced. In this way, the threat of the defending siege catapult to the siege tower is greatly weakened. Before the counterweight siege caster appeared, it was difficult for the lever catapult to rely solely on human traction to pose a threat to this improved siege tower.

But there are advantages and disadvantages.

Although the strength of the wooden siege tower has been increased, its relative weight is much larger than that of the bamboo siege tower. Even if the bottom is full of people, it is impossible to lift the entire siege tower. Therefore, wheels must be installed at the bottom and then push forward with manpower. In this way, the wooden siege tower's requirements for ground flatness and strength are much more demanding than that of the bamboo siege tower.

"Genius, this is simply the idea of ​​a genius!" Lu Su turned around and glanced at Ma Yue with respectful eyes, and sighed, "Can the lord come up with such a sharp weapon for siege? It's incredible. With such a weapon in hand, why worry about Shouchun not breaking? But I am not afraid of the strong city in the world, but I am afraid that the tactics of defending the city will change drastically in the future."

Ma Yue said modestly: "Although this siege tower is sharp, it is not as powerful as Zi Jing said. However, the Wu army did not know that our army had such a sharp siege weapon, which could just catch him off guard."

Kuai Yue showed a slightly excited expression in his expression and asked Ma Yue: "Lord, I wonder when this siege car will arrive at the camp? I can't wait to see his true face."

"Haha, don't be anxious about the different degrees." Jia Xu waved his hand and smiled, "This thing is stupid and heavy, not so easy to transport, so he can only log and make materials on the spot. The lord sent someone to invite the two to serve as supervisors, urge the craftsmen, and the soldiers to rush to build a batch of siege cars! You have seen the general style of the siege cars. The design height should be the same as the height of the Shouchun City Wall, about five meters high. As for any problems during the manufacturing process, you can come and find the lord at any time, or you can find the lord. In addition, if you have any other requirements, such as materials, personnel, and craftsmen, you can also put forward them. You must try your best to satisfy them."

"I understand." Lu Su was eager to try, "Please leave it to the next and the other side, and it will not disappoint the lord and military advisor."

Ma Yue said happily: "Then please both of you."

"Goodbye."

Lu Su bowed to Ma Yue, Jia Xu turned around and wanted to leave. After walking two steps, he realized that he had forgotten to take the drawings. He quickly patted his forehead, turned around and picked up the drawings from the table and hurriedly left the tent with Kuai Yue.

Jia Xu shook his head and smiled, and said to Ma Yue: "This Lu Zijing is really doing things in a hurry, haha."

Ma Yue also smiled and said, "So, this supervisor is the one who belongs to him."

Jia Xu said: "No matter how good Zhou Yu is to use his troops, he would never have expected our army to have such a sharp weapon for siege! Xu thought he could now start thinking about how to cross the Huai River and continue to move south to specific strategic deployment."

"Wenhe and don't be careless." Ma Yue shook his head with a serious expression and said, "Although this siege car can kill Wu's army off guard, it may not be able to break through Shouchun City. Although Zhou Yu's young boy is still not to be underestimated! In Wancheng, Gu almost used a trick to lure him to kill him, but in the end he was discovered and failed. This guy's ability to adapt to changes is first-class, and he is the only one who has seen him in his life."
