The benefits of the horse lance are many, in addition to the fact that the lance can bend itself to offset most of the impact force during a violent collision, the lance is also an important feature because of the special treatment, the knife is constantly chopping.

Ma Lin watched a movie "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" in his last life, which included the plot of Tang Bohu's father and Tang Bohu's own red tassel gun, which was directly cut off from the wooden pole by the opponent with a sword. However, if the horse lance is slashed off by a knife when fighting the enemy, the only remaining mallet will become a long burning stick, which will have no combat use.

Unlike the horse lance, a large number of complex processes and materials are used in the production process of the lance. Moreover, when the lance is not made, "knife chopping" is one of the qualified standards. Therefore, the lance of the horse lance is not afraid of being cut by a knife. A well-made horse lance, dare not be used for your own use, as long as it is well maintained, it can even be passed on to your children and grandchildren to continue to use, and the service life is very long. Unlike riding spears, after a battle, you have to change a few guns. The trouble of changing the riding gun is secondary, and the most terrible thing is that during the period when there is no riding gun, the knight's ability to protect himself will be greatly reduced. If a knight with a broken spear encounters an enemy knight with a broken spear, he may be knocked off his horse at once, injured or even captured.

And the horse lance is different, he can use it repeatedly without fear of breaking. Moreover, the length of the horse lance is greater than that of a riding spear. Riding spears are generally more than 2 meters long. The back is a solid or hollow thick wooden stick, with a metal spear tip added to the front. In the event of a collision, the recoil force is counteracted by the breaking of the hollow stick. The length of the horse lance is generally two zhang, that is, three or four meters long, which is longer than a riding spear. If it is a hedge, it must be the horse lance that stabs the knight who uses a spear more than 2 meters long. Although the lance may not be able to pierce the plate armor, it is still possible to knock the knight off the horse. Relying on the advantage of being one or two meters longer than a riding spear, it is inevitable to hit the opponent first. Moreover, the knight wore full body armor, which made it inconvenient to bend down to avoid it. Because of this, the later cuirassiers, in order to facilitate the cavalry to bend down and chop the infantry with swords, all used three-quarter cuirass to make the cavalry's waist more flexible.

In fact, it's not that the knights don't want to use longer riding guns, it's that the riding guns are very heavy! The second half of the rifle was a thick wooden stick. Even if it's hollow, it's very heavy. Therefore, the riding gun can be made 2 meters long, and it is about the same. If it is longer, the knight will not be able to hold it in one hand.

Because of the excellent manufacturing process, although the horse lance is three or four meters long, the weight is about the same as that of an ordinary spear, and it is much lighter than a riding spear. So, it can be made three or four meters long. Riding a gun in one hand and holding a horse lance in one hand are very different experiences. Holding a riding spear in one hand is equivalent to a thick wooden stake, which is very difficult. Holding a horse lance in one hand is like holding a long bamboo pole, and the ease can be imagined.

The only trouble with the horse lance is its matching horse martial arts. Because, the lance is not just a spear tip, but a short sword, and the left and right are bladed. Therefore, the horse lance can not only stab, but also slash and sweep with the lance. It's just that it's not so easy to use a three- or four-meter-long horse lance on a horse to perform related martial arts, and it can't be done without years of practice.

Like the famous generals of the early Tang Dynasty, such as Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong and Cheng Biting Jin, etc., they wrote nonsense in the romance, saying that they used double maces, iron whips and plate axes, which were all nonsense. And in real history, these three fierce generals are all good at using horse lances. Moreover, the three of them are all from official families, and the horse lance is probably passed down from ancestors. Moreover, the three of them were the commanders of the most elite Xuanjia cavalry under Li Shimin, personally holding a horse lance and leading the Xuanjia cavalry to charge. It's just that there are many techniques for horse lances and it takes years of training.

Of course, for European knights, even if they don't know how to use other types of horses, it is enough to know how to charge and stab with a horselance. Anyway, the horse lance is equivalent to a riding gun that can be used for a long time, and it is not easy to hurt the arm by the recoil force.

Marin had already assembled a lancer, and although the speed of the charge was limited to avoid injury, it was no less powerful. If you change it to a horse lance, then you can let go and charge. A bird cavalry similar to the Polish hussars, charging with a horse lance, that picture, Marin feels cool when he thinks about it, it is much stronger than any cuirassiers who use sabers.

After all, riding combat hedges, an inch long and an inch strong. The lance is up to 4 meters long and is light and flexible. For the cuirassiers holding sabers or cavalry swords, the cavalrymen with horse lances can be stabbed off their horses from a distance of two or three meters, or even stabbed to death on the spot. Even a knight in armor with a spear and a 2-meter-long spear with a thick stick will be attacked one step ahead of the wielder. Even if the horse lance can't stab the plate armor, it can still be done by poking the knight off the horse.

In fact, many knights' casualties were not on horseback at all, but after being knocked off the horse, they fell or were trampled on the horse or even trampled to death. It's rare to get knocked out right on horseback, and unless you encounter a violent man like Karn who hits him directly with a mace, he will be hurt by a heavy blow before he falls off the horse.

For example, when a Swiss mercenary kills a knight, he throws the knight off his horse after the spearman stabs the horse, causing the horse to be injured or killed. Swiss mercenaries then used hammers or tomahawks to smash or wound the knights who had fallen from their horses.

Marin couldn't wait to go to the Ming Dynasty to find the materials to make the horse lance. After all, he knew the materials and the general process of making the horse lance. It would be great if you could find a craftsman who is proficient in making horse lances. The reason why we are looking for craftsmen who are proficient in making horse lances is not only to make horse lances, but more importantly, it is actually to find the use of horse lances in martial arts. In this way, the power of the horse lance can be brought into full play. Because, the production skills of horse lance are generally in the hands of the generals handed down during the Tang Dynasty, and will not be known by ordinary craftsmen. If you can find someone who can make a horse lance, you can also find a book on the use of horse lance.

Before leaving the fortress where the bandits were entrenched, Marin killed the eight wandering knights who had been evil for many years, but let most of the ordinary bandits go. Because, many bandits, most of them have no food to eat, so they are forced to become bandits. And those 8 wandering knights are different, they obviously have a skill, even if they can't find a big nobleman to serve, find a rich businessman to serve, and be a guard who doesn't worry about food and clothing. But they chose to become bandits, obviously morally corrupt. So, Marin killed the 8 men and buried them. Then, all the bandits were disbanded. For those who were injured, Ma Lin also took out part of the money and food seized from Shanzhai Li and distributed it to them, so that they could go home to recuperate.

After dealing with these bandits, Marin continued to the south with his men. In fact, Marin didn't want to let those bandits go so easily. However, he was in a hurry to go to Rome now, and he did not have time to carefully screen the good and bad of the bandits. In the case of not knowing whether it was good or bad, Marin chose to kill the 8 first evildoers, and let go of the other ordinary thieves, so that he could get out smoothly.

Moreover, Marin did not choose to hand over those bandits to the official Duchy of Württemberg. Because, the Duke of Württemberg was a member of the Swabian Confederation and belonged to the emperor's faction.

Marin was now about to evade the Emperor and avoid being captured, so he was forced to send troops to fight George in his aid. Therefore, this time when he went south, Marin did not take the main road, and when he met the countries of the Swabian League, he basically took the small road, which was to avoid being discovered by the emperor. Then, I met this gang of bandits......
