War Wagon
The Korean kingdom of Koryo was often under attack from all sides - by China, by barbarian civilisations to the north like the Mongols, and by sea raiders. To survive they needed a strong military. We have hints from scant records that the Koryo were innovative warriors, perhaps being the first to use rockets in combat and carriages of some type. Trains of these wagons could be arranged into temporary fortifications in open areas, providing a mobile and substantial defensive position against mounted enemies. So became the war wagon, a classic chariot with scythed blades and mobile forts from which archers could fire with some protection.
