Hearing Marin's arrogant words, Xiong Zi Zhengde was also stunned. But soon, Emperor Zhengde reacted and persuaded:

"Ma Aiqing, calm down!"

It is said that if the Ming Dynasty said so, Zhengde, who is a bear child, may be allowed, and he will shout loudly to be good-looking and lively. But Marin's identity is different, Marin is the lord of the foreign domain. If Ma Lin had an accident in the Ming Dynasty, in the future, which foreign feudal lord would dare to come to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute? It's life-threatening...... Although it seems that Marin himself died, no one else knows......

Therefore, even with the attribute of a bear child, Zhengde is not a fool and knows that this is not a joke. Therefore, he tried his best to persuade Marin to give up this seemingly fatal idea.

But how would Marin listen to persuasion? He originally came to show off the super protective ability of European plate armor, so naturally he would not easily give up this opportunity to pretend.

In the end, a compromise was reached between the two sides - Zhengde found a tall sergeant about the same size as Marin from the forbidden army Jin Wuwei, put on Marin's plate armor, and stood in the distance for the archers of the forbidden army to shoot...... In this way, Marlin does not have to "take risks", and at the same time, he can also test the protection of the plate armor that Marlin boasts about......

"Put-" With the order of the archer squad leader, several Praetorian archers let go, and several feathered arrows flew towards the trembling Praetorian guard wearing Marin plate armor......

"Ahh......h

Marin was suddenly covered with black lines - this Nima, this ordinary light feather arrow, is it easy to tickle when shot on the plate armor...... It's really unproductive......

But where does Marin know, because Daming's armor can't prevent bows and arrows at all, at most it reduces the lethality. And the buddy who was selected to wear plate armor is also a second-generation military who does not learn and has no skills, and it is thanks to the hereditary system of military households in the Ming Dynasty and a good appearance that he was mixed into the forbidden army Jin Wuwei, where can he be stimulated like this? So gloriously fainted......

But after the imperial doctor's examination, this buddy didn't have a ......

Zhengde's face turned blue suddenly-Nima, this is too embarrassing......

"Send this goods to Xuanfu Town to be a border army, don't train your guts, don't go back to Beijing! Made, what a shame on me! The good-faced Emperor Zhengde couldn't help but burst into foul language.

If this thing is like this in front of ordinary ministers, Zhengde will not be angry. But Marin is a fanyi. Frightened and fainted in front of him, didn't he lose the face of the court? Therefore, this buddy who was originally mixed well in Jin Wuwei was directly assigned to Xuanfu Town, the head of the nine border towns in the late Ming Dynasty, as a border soldier. If this goods is crossed again, maybe a new one can be written, and it will be called "A Small Soldier of the Ming Border Army......

After testing, it was found that a normal foot bow could not hurt a person wearing full-body plate armor. Even, this kind of full-body plate armor is even protected by the third leg. The only flaw is probably that there is a gap in the eye part of the helmet. But as long as the person wearing plate armor is not a statue and takes care to avoid the arrows in the eye slits, then there is no problem.

Zhengde did not give up and wanted to change to a strong bow and a strong crossbow, but Marin immediately stopped it.

Just kidding, a strong bow and a strong crossbow, with a lot of kinetic energy. Even if you can't shoot through the plate armor, you can still stun or stun the person wearing the plate armor. Now the person wearing plate armor is Jin Wuwei, and he is not a criminal, so there is no need to be so tidy.

Moreover, Ma Lin also explained to Zhengde - this plate armor is used to deal with the cavalry of the Mongolian cavalry, and there is no need for a strong crossbow to test. You know, the Mongolian cavalry's riding bow is not as powerful as the infantry bow.

Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart. At least, he has read a lot of military books, and he is not a novice in military affairs. Originally, in history, he also personally commanded a large army to fight, and he also won. Hearing Marin's explanation, he also reacted:

"What does Ma Aiqing mean is that this is prepared to fight against the Mongol cavalry?"

Marin nodded and said:

"Of course, this is to help the Ming against the Mongol cavalry."

At present, the biggest hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty is the Mongolian tribes on the Saibei grassland.

The Mongol cavalry came and went like the wind, and the scale was huge. The cavalry of the Ming Dynasty was small, and they were not good at horse archery. Fight against the Mongol cavalry, who can escape calmly even if they can't beat it. Moreover, if the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty dared to chase, it was easy to be shot in the face by the Mongolian cavalry who were proficient in cavalry and archery......

The protective power of the armor of the Ming army is not as perverted as the plate armor, and even in the face of the riding bow, the protection is not too good. Therefore, in the face of the invading Mongol cavalry, they could only defend passively. Even if they repelled the Mongol cavalry, they did not dare to chase them out. Because, for fear of being shot in the face by the other party......

And if you are not afraid of the Mongolian cavalry's rogue cavalry general cavalry tactics, then the Ming Dynasty cavalry can rest assured that the Mongolian cavalry will be able to pursue the repulsed Mongolian cavalry.

Of course, it's not that simple. First of all, Zhengde, who understands military affairs, raised a question:

"Ma Aiqing, your set of full-body plate armor is estimated to weigh dozens of pounds. Ordinary war horses can't move at all. Even if you can move, you can't run fast, and you can't catch up with the Mongolian light cavalry at all! ”

"Also, even if people are not afraid of bows and arrows, what about war horses?"

Marin had already dealt with it in his heart, and said unhurriedly:

"Your Majesty, didn't the minister bring 100 war horses? The tall horses produced in Europe were specially used to carry knights who wore full-body plate armor. ”

"As for the problem that war horses are afraid of bows and arrows, we also have a countermeasure, that is, to put armor on the horses!"

Subsequently, Marin had a horse dressed in horse armor......

Zhengde looked at it and suddenly realized:

"I see...... However, if you wear it so heavy, you can't catch up with the opponent's cavalry! ”

"Why do you want to catch up with the opposing cavalry?" Marin suddenly asked rhetorically.

"If you don't catch up, how can you annihilate the enemy?" Emperor Zhengde asked suspiciously.

"Your Majesty, of course, you can't defeat the Mongol cavalry by relying on the heavy cavalry alone. Moreover, this heavy cavalry, in itself, was not intended to annihilate the Mongol light cavalry by its own strength. Marin explained.

"What do you mean?" Emperor Zhengde is only 18 years old, and he still knows little about military affairs.

"Heavy cavalry, for knights and war horses, the requirements are very high. Because, fighting in such heavy plate armor, or charging with such a heavy thing, is very demanding on the physical strength of knights and war horses. Such a person is also one in a hundred in the army, does Your Majesty think so? ”

"Of course! This kind of war horse that can carry heavy armored cavalry and horse armor is very rare in the Ming Dynasty. I'm afraid, I can only count on you to provide it! ”

"So, the size of the heavy cavalry cannot be very large. Since the scale is not large, it is difficult to use it to fight in an army alone, and it must be used to fight in conjunction with other branches of the army. For example, they had to be covered by a lot of light cavalry! ”

"And how do you use this heavy cavalry?" Emperor Zhengde humbly asked.

"Retreat head-on and hit the opponent's morale!" Marin cut the railway.

"Demoralize the other side?"

"Yes, ancient warfare...... No, it's a battlefield duel, and morale is very important. The heavy cavalry was not afraid of the cavalry of the Mongol cavalry, so at the beginning, the heavy cavalry could take the lead in rushing and knocking the Mongol cavalry back......"

"And then?"

"The other party was repulsed as soon as he came up, and his morale must have been affected. Taking advantage of the great drop in morale, we can send light cavalry from the left and right flanks to outflank the enemy, while heavy cavalry can take the opportunity to rest in place......" said Marin, gesturing on the ground with a branch.

"What if it doesn't work?" Zhengde said thoughtfully.

"Then go back!" Marin said lightly.

"But once you retreat, you will be covered by the enemy cavalry!"

"It doesn't matter, at that time, the heavy cavalry who had stopped to rest before had almost relieved their breath. At this time, let the heavy cavalry catch up and beat the opponent back...... In short, as long as the heavy armored cavalry is ready for battle, it will be difficult for the other side to annihilate our army......"

"Moreover, we can divide the heavy cavalry into two parts. One part was used for the initial charge, and the other part was used as a reserve to prevent the enemy cavalry from taking advantage of the situation after the rout of the front army. As long as the other party dares to chase, hit it back! In this way, the two parts of the heavy armored cavalry alternately rest and fight, which can make our army invincible! ”

Zhengde fell into deep thought......
