Chapter 1024: Women's Army VS Xiliang Iron Cavalry
Chapter 1024: Detachment of Women VS Xiliang Cavalry
The range of the Detachment of Women's crossbows is far beyond that of ordinary crossbows. It could have fired five shots, but Arthur gave up the last chance after the crossbowmen attacked four times.
"The crossbowmen retreated, the swordsmen stepped forward to block the enemy, the swordsmen and shield soldiers followed closely behind, the spearmen divided into two groups to attack from both sides, and the archers changed weapons to prepare for close combat."
Following Arthur's order, Qin Wu's wife Yang Paifeng immediately led five hundred crossbowmen to evacuate in an orderly manner, and within a very short period of time, they retreated to the rear of the army.
At the same time, Hua Mulan ran forward with five hundred swordsmen and was at the forefront of the Detachment of Women. Qin Yong's wife, Yang Jiumei and Yang Ying, followed closely behind with a thousand swordsmen and shield soldiers.
As for the pike troops totaling 1,500, Hu Sanniangze and Yang Sanlang's wife Dong Yue'e each led 750 pikemen on the left and right sides of the army.
The thousand archers who were originally in the front army now became the central army of the Detachment of Women. Under the command of Liang Hongyu, who had put down the drumsticks, they quickly retracted their bows and arrows and stood in formation, each holding a horizontal sword.
When Li Yuan saw a row of bright Mo Dao soldiers at the front of the Detachment of Women, he was shocked and said: "What? There are actually Mod Dao troops in the Detachment of Women? How is this possible? How can a woman serve as a Mo Dao wielder?"
Before Modao appeared, infantry could only rely on bows and arrows to defeat cavalry, as well as numbers and lives. But after Modao came out, infantry had another way to deal with cavalry.
After the Battle of Jingbei, Modao became famous all over the world along with the trapped camp. It can be said to be the iconic equipment of the trapped camp. Naturally, the princes also coveted such sharp weapons, especially Youliang, who was threatened by the foreign cavalry in the north.
The princes of the two states.
It is naturally impossible to hand over the forging method of a sharp weapon such as the Mo Dao. Although the princes do not have the forging skills of the Mo Dao, it does not prevent them from imitating the Mo Dao. After all, the characteristics of the Mo Dao are its weight and sharpness.
Even if you can't make the exact same one, you can make something similar.
Of course, no matter how hard the princes imitated it, the imitations they produced were still not as good as the real Mo Dao, because this was the gap in forging technology.
Although the Mo Dao imitated by the princes is far less effective than the Qin army's Mo Dao, it still has a certain restraint effect on the cavalry.
But the princes later discovered that the Modao Army's requirements for the quality of the soldiers were too high, and their movement speed was too slow. They had to cooperate with other arms to bring out their true power, so the number of the Modao Army was also destined.
Not too much.
Because the quality of soldiers required to use Modao is too high, the difficulty of becoming a Modao is even higher than that of a cavalry. Each Modao is an elite selected after thousands of selections.
Therefore, when Li Yuan saw that there were actually five hundred swordsmen in the Detachment of Women, he could not believe that what he saw was true.
The average physical fitness of women is much weaker than that of men, and most men cannot use Mo Dao, let alone women.
There are only 5,000 female warriors in the Detachment of Women, but they have trained 500 swordsmen. Li Yuan thinks that this probability is too high. You must know that even if they are trapped in the camp, there will only be 1,000 swordsmen.
Since Arthur deliberately concealed the existence of the Mo Dao Army, Li Yuan did not know that there was a Mo Dao Shou among the Women's Army. If he had known, he would not have engaged in a head-on battle. After all, the Mo Dao was the nemesis of the cavalry.
But now Li Yuan is already facing a difficult situation. The horn of attack has already sounded. The Xiliang Cavalry and the Mo Dao Army of the Detachment of Women are about to come into contact. It is obviously impossible to turn back.
"I don't believe that women can unleash the power of Mo Dao."
Li Yuan gritted his teeth and said, after all, the matter has come to this, and he can only comfort himself in this way.
In front of the Detachment of Women's Army formation, Hua Mulan stared at the Liang Army cavalry who were very close at hand, and then shouted: "Detachment of Detachment of Women, Modao Team, attack."
Facing the world-famous Xiliang cavalry, the Detachment of Women, as infantrymen, not only did not retreat, but faced the difficulties and took the initiative to launch an offensive against the Xiliang cavalry.
Under the command of Hua Mulan, the five hundred swordsmen of the Detachment of Women simultaneously waved their two-meter-long sharp blades, instantly forming several walls of swords. They shouted the slogan of the Detachment of Women and began to advance like a wall. of hacking.
The Xiliang cavalry just hit the wall of knives hit by the Mo Dao team of the Detachment of Women.
boom……
For a moment, people were on their backs, and screams continued. However, under its violent impact, the Mo Dao team also suffered certain casualties.
Li Yuan did not guess wrong. The Mo Dao is a weapon that relies heavily on strength, and women are naturally weaker. Although the Detachment of Women can improve their strength through acquired training, they still have a long way to go before they can unleash the full power of the Mo Dao. There's still some way to go.
If the Qianmo Swordsman is trapped in the camp, it is said that he can withstand the impact of three thousand cavalry head-on, and can even directly penetrate these three thousand cavalry head-on.
In comparison, the Mo Dao Team of the Detachment of Women was much worse.
Although the 500 Modao team led by Hua Mulan also caused a lot of damage to the Liang army, they could obviously withstand the impact of the 3,000 cavalry.
Of course Arthur knew that with only 500 Mo Dao soldiers, he would definitely not be able to stop the 3,000 Xiliang cavalry, so the moment the Mo Dao team and the cavalry fought, Arthur from behind immediately waved his sword and shouted: "All the troops attack .”
Following Arthur's order, Yang Jiumei's Thousand Sword Shield Soldiers and Liang Hongyu's Thousand Swordsman Soldiers all followed the Modao Team to attack, while Hu Sanniang and Dong Yue'e led the spearmen from the left and right to the west. The Liang cavalry launched a flanking attack from both sides.
"Sisters, kill!"
Yang Jiumei stabbed with her spear, Hu Sanniang waved her swords, and Liang Hongyu danced wildly with her silver spear. All the Liang army cavalry who came close to them were killed in an instant.
When the female soldiers of the Detachment of Women saw how brave their generals were, their morale soared, and they became more and more courageous as they fought.
The Mo Dao and the Sword and Shield Soldiers were like two walls, blocking most of the cavalry's attacks, greatly reducing the pressure on the other Detachment of Women soldiers.
Under the tactics of the Detachment of Women, which were coordinated by multiple arms, the impact of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry became weaker and weaker, and in the end they were completely stopped.
Four thousand female soldiers of the Detachment of Women blocked three thousand Xiliang cavalry head-on. This can be said to be an absolute feat.
Once the cavalry loses its impact, its combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and even the infantry will be able to defeat it.
At this moment, the five hundred heavily armored female cavalry who were wandering outside finally arrived, and under the personal command of General Arthur, they launched a final charge against the Liang Army cavalry who had lost their impact.
