Chapter 59 Infantry vs Cavalry

When the battle had just officially begun, both sides were immediately startled by the other party's strength-Teng_)

In the early morning, the infantry formations of Azam Tulansha Sultan had just been arranged, and a large number of cavalry emerged in the city like smoke. In order to make the cavalry line up as soon as possible, several gates of Bosaro City opened together. Zhao Xu was counting on the ability of cavalry to suppress infantry. In this era of heavy armored cavalry, infantry was considered a low-level army.

In this era, when heavy armored cavalry deals with infantry, they often go smoothly like chopping melons and vegetables. Zhao Xu means that he will win a little first to give the army outside the city a little color to see the cavalry lined up in an impact formation, like a tornado, which makes Azam Tulansha who is actually on the battlefield for the first time and has actually started a war. He is a little worried.

"Your Majesty, are we going to use the 'reincarnation cannon' or 'grenade launcher'? I'm worried if it is..."

"No need, try the power of musketeers and see if their skills have been trained for so long are really useful."

Following Azam Tulansha Sultan is Princess Afaf, who knows very well about the power of those firearms. In this era, it is a weapon that is not even better than that of cavalry. It is only Azam Tulansha Sultan, who is interested in seeing the power of musketeers against cavalry, but is not in a hurry to ask the artillery team to take action. He has "directional thunder" and "grenade launchers". He is not worried about safety at all.

A strong fighting spirit spread on the battlefield. The enemy army had already set up a formation, and then preparing to fight the war at this time was very interesting. Except for Zhao Fubo's habit of cheating, he did not give the other party a chance to set up a formation, and he also liked to sneak attacks. Most of the time, they would wait for the other party to set up a formation before launching a charge.

This is the case on the battlefield at this moment. The musketeers under Azam Tulansha Sultan prepared all the shooting in the sound of the snare drums. Until then, Zhao Xu's cavalry began to move slowly. At first, the horses were running in small steps, and then they became faster and faster. Finally, when all the horses galloped, the sound of the earth was like a hundred heavy drums being beaten at the same time.

The musketeers looked at the cavalry rushing across the street without moving, obeying the officers' hoarse roars

"preparation……"

The musketeers in the two rows raised the musketeers together in the eyes of the musketeers. The galloping cavalry had an absolute power, which made the musketeers nervous. They were using a bronze barrel musket with only a short piece of triangular thorn. Looking at the sharp "Chinese spear" in the cavalry's hands, they were nervous.

They have conducted strict training on the impact of the cavalry, but when they really arrived on the battlefield, no one would be afraid of listening to the sound of horse hooves and the thunderous shouts.

Besides, the cavalry rushing over, the "Chinese spears" in their hands stood up in rows, and they tried their best to maintain the uniform formation when charging. In fact, the conflict between cavalry. If the formation is scattered, unless it is attacked with bows and arrows, there will be no great impact. However, the Arabs learned this cavalry charge formation in the Europeans, so that the Mamluk cavalry, which was originally good at fighting, could play a big role.

However, what would this tactic look like when facing musketeers today? This also made people feel worried for Azam Tulansha Sultan. After all, musketeers come to deal with cavalry, which is not only Zhao Fubo's "Mustball Camp" that uses rifles, but the first wave of the world

The musketeers opposite the cavalry lined up in many long two-row formations. Of course, this was the method Martin copied. As for how to use it, Martin didn't know that it was only Azam. Tulansha Sultan trained himself, and he had practiced the formation of the cavalry and resisted the cavalry charge. This was the key training goal of the musketeers. Because only when they could fight against the cavalry, the musketeers had their true meaning.

Looking at the cavalry getting closer and closer, the officers looked at the entire musket team's commander. The command knife in his hand was held up, and he was yelling with a long voice to the officers conveyed such orders to their soldiers exactly the same.

"Stay..."

"put……"

As the command knife raised by the officer fell, the muskets in the hands of the musketeers were deployed in rows. For the musketeers, they almost saw their record clearly, because when facing the cavalry charge, quickly loading was their only way to defeat the other side.

One by one, a 500-man musket team, followed by a musket team firing about 10 cross-straits in the first row. Azam Tulansha Sultan arranged two cross-straits, so after the soldiers in the first row completed the volley, they all squatted underground, and the 10 cross-straits in the second row still opened fire. The people in the first cross-strait loaded their ammunition in this gap in order to have a chance to shoot for a second time.

In fact, musketeers don't have to be so nervous when dealing with cavalry, especially when their number accounts for an absolute majority, and the cavalry charge at this time, as mentioned earlier, the heavy armored cavalry always lined up in neat and tight formations. If they could attack the enemy's camp, they would be like a block of iron rushing across the road, and the infantry would have no way to resist.

However, this time, facing the 10,000 musketeers, the cavalry sent by Zhao Xu became the heavy armored cavalry in front of him. Their armor could not resist the round-shaped bullets, one by one, with the "Chinese spear" flying under the bullets flying like rain, or were thrown off the horse because the war horse was hit.

The cavalry charging, like the wheat that was cut in summer, fell down layer by layer, and then trampled into a meaty mud under the subsequent iron hooves. The cavalry charging was like an arrow that was fired. There was no chance of turning back at first. The fire density formed was absolutely panicking, and it was similar to the integrated ammunition with shellless gun bullets, which made the loading faster and timely

The impact of the cavalry was extremely rapid. Although rows of guns were continuously launched, causing them to fall in rows, they still quickly approached the remaining cavalry of the infantry. At this time, according to their training, they tried their best to maintain their formation and at the same time kept their formation dense, which gave the musketeers the best shooting target.

Finally, after the second round of musket shooting was completed, most of the 5,000 cavalrymen, except for a few who escaped, fell on the battlefield.
