The terrain here is not complex, just not very regular.

It feels like this was originally a relatively large underground cave. The ground was just manually trimmed, the door was installed, and it was opened directly.

As for the "Linchong Lugong Car" just now, it was obviously not brought in through the bronze gate.

Instead, the materials were transported in separately before being assembled in this underground palace, because the bronze gate was simply not large enough for the "Linchong Lugong Car" to pass.

Continuing to explore in this way, Wu Liang and others soon saw new large-scale equipment.

This is also a chariot equipped with six wheels. The wheels together support a large wooden bed. On top of the wooden ship is a large ladder made of pillars that is more than ten meters high.

There is also a movable small ladder on top of the ladder, and two metal hooks are installed at the end of the small ladder.

This should be the legendary "ladder".

In fact, things like "cloud ladders" have not been lost, and such siege equipment has been indispensable in all dynasties.

However, as far as Wu Liang knows, Boss Cao and the others do not use such a "cloud ladder" in battles today, but a simple long ladder made simply from bamboo.

Whenever a city is attacked, soldiers like him have to carry simple ladders and rush to the city wall against arrows and stones and other defensive means. Then they put such a simple long ladder on the city wall, and then

They stood below and held up the long ladder, waiting for the soldiers behind to climb up the ladder on their shoulders.

This is definitely a near-death thing. Even if Wu Liang himself has not experienced it personally, he has experienced it deeply through the memories of his "talented brother" after time travel.

So Wu Liang also understands the cruelty of war very well.

One general's success will destroy ten thousand bones.

Whether as a general or as a soldier, he will never go to the battlefield.

If Boss Cao puts a knife to his neck and forces him to strike, then it will definitely be Boss Cao who regrets it...

anyway.

The "cloud ladder" in front of us has many similarities with the ladder used by the Tang Dynasty army in historical records, and there may be some connections between the two.

But let’s talk about Wu Liang.

The functions of the "Cloud Ladder" and the "Linchong Lugong Car" actually overlap somewhat.

There is no doubt that the "Linchong Lugong Car" should be regarded as an upgraded version of the "Cloud Ladder". That thing can not only send people up the city wall, but also can send dozens or even hundreds of people at a time. If the soldiers sitting on it have

With long-range attack weapons, it becomes a mobile combat vehicle with a weapon system.

The disadvantage is that the manpower and material resources required to manufacture the "Linchong Lu Gongche" are far greater than those of the "Yunladder", and it is relatively restricted by the terrain. Whether it can be put into the battlefield depends on the situation.

As the saying goes, "A layman can see the excitement, an expert can see the door."

When Wu Liang, a layman, came here, it was like entering a museum of ancient military equipment. Needless to say, he was amazed by the wonder in his heart, but he only knew a little bit about the more specific craftsmanship and structure. If he wanted to copy it perfectly

, even if we want to improve on this basis, we still have to wait for Sun Ye to draw the drawings first.

In this way, we walked around the "ladder" and watched the flowers.

"Let's go."

Wu Liang glanced at the three people accompanying him and planned to move on.

At this time, Dian Wei, who had been in charge of the alert, frowned slightly and said very vigilantly: "Sir, Mr. Wei felt that something was watching us, but after standing here checking for a long time, he didn't notice anything unusual.

I don’t know if it’s caused by Wei’s misunderstanding.”

"oh?"

Upon hearing this, a chill suddenly rose in Wu's conscience.

Yu Ji and Bai Jingjing also subconsciously moved closer to Wu Liang and Dian Wei, obviously feeling a little nervous.

"When did you start feeling this way?"

Wu Liang looked around and found nothing unusual, so he had to ask.

Dian Wei is different from Yu Ji.

He is the kind of tough guy who is not afraid of anything. If he didn't really feel something, he would never say such alarmist words easily and affect the morale of everyone.

"Just after he separated from Yang Wanli and Zhuge Liang, I don't know what happened. Wei soon became inexplicably restless. He always felt that there was a pair of eyes in the dark peeping at us, ready to take action."

Dian Wei said seriously.

"Um……"

Wu Liang nodded and groaned.

It was not the first day he had known Dian Wei. Although he had extraordinary powers and amazing martial arts, he did not have any other special abilities, especially the ability to sense danger in advance. Otherwise, he would have been to so many tombs and encountered so many things before.

How dangerous it is, it's impossible not to show it at all.

It was also because of this that Wu Liangcai felt unable to explain.

A person who is fearless and has no special abilities suddenly begins to feel uneasy for no reason. Could it be that this is an intuition that future generations cannot give a reasonable explanation for?

Or it can be more formally called the "sixth sense".

But should this inexplicable “sixth sense” be believed?

Or should I not believe it?

Wu Liang didn't quite make it clear. Sometimes people should just trust their intuition, but sometimes they shouldn't. In the end, it's up to you to decide.

"If no direct evidence is found, maybe it's just your misunderstanding."

Wu Liang was still unsure. He seemed to be saying to Dian Wei or himself, "But anything can happen in the tomb. You should be more careful and report it to me immediately if you find anything unusual.

Make your own judgment.”

"promise."

Dian Wei responded, took down the other engineer shovel, and entered the dual-wielding berserk state. Obviously Wu Liang's words did not completely reassure him. This feeling still existed, and may even have become stronger...

…

Go forward.

Wu Liang and others encountered several more corpses carrying chisels and tools.

These corpses also fell to the ground in a mess, and the causes of death were finally slightly different.

Two of the corpses had their heads shot from top to bottom, while the other three corpses were quite complete. No obvious damage could be seen on the bones, and there were no signs of poisoning, as if they had died without any illness.

But Wu Liang knew it.

It is impossible to "die without illness". These three corpses must have died suddenly here, but died in some way that cannot be seen from the remaining skeletons.

That is to say.

In addition to the "headshot monster", there may be other unknown fatal factors.

The unknown is undoubtedly the hardest thing to guard against...

"Everyone, from now on, in addition to protecting your head, you must also pay more attention to other aspects."

Wu Liang had to give advance warning to the three companions.

"clear."

Everyone nodded in response.

It can be seen that the expressions on everyone's faces gradually became serious and a little nervous.

Then he cautiously moved forward for a while.

A huge crossbow also placed on a four-legged wooden bed appeared in front of everyone.

To be precise, it should be three huge crossbows that are about one foot wide.

It's just that these three large bows were merged together and placed overlapping on the four-legged wooden bed. There were three slits on the crossbow arm, and three longer than conventional spears were placed in the slits.

A huge arrow as thick as an adult's arm.

The head of this huge arrow is made of metal, and even the arrow feathers are made of iron. It looks extremely powerful.

Behind this huge crossbow, there is also a round shaft similar to a winch, with a strong hemp rope wrapped around the round shaft...

"Three-bow bed crossbow?"

Wu Liang's eyes lit up again.

The only thing he could think of that was similar to this thing was the "three-bow bed crossbow" that only appeared in the Song Dynasty.

This kind of crossbow can already be called a "ballista". It is an early type of compound crossbow. It is so powerful that if it is used to attack a city, even if it does not hit the enemy's baggage, it can still shoot the crossbow directly into the enemy's baggage.

Within the city wall, siege soldiers can also use these arrows inserted into the city wall to climb up.

And if this thing is placed on the city wall for defense, except for the armored vehicles of later generations whose materials and thickness are amazing, almost nothing can resist it these days.

Therefore, the force required to pull this kind of ballista is also very amazing.

That’s why it’s necessary to install the “capstan” behind the crossbow.

It is a kind of labor-saving pulley, which can reduce the manpower required to launch the "three-bow bed crossbow" to a certain extent.

Another war instrument that only appeared in the Song Dynasty in history has appeared in this underground palace from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period...
