Many of the generals of the Vermilion Bird Legion are almost familiar with the mentality of the generals of the Cloud Country.

What's ridiculous is that your generals in Yunguo don't know that they have been tricked, and they all look complacent.

Even, the generals of the Yun Kingdom are no longer afraid that they will know, because in their opinion, the army has already formed a formation, and even if the Vermilion Bird Legion retreats in this battle, it will be a small defeat, and its spirit will be greatly defeated.

This made the hearts of the generals Gu Fengnan and Gu Yi full of expectations, and when the 50,000 heavy cavalry of the Yun Kingdom army had high hopes suffered a heavy defeat, what kind of expressions would those Yun Kingdom generals have.

In Han Tong's hand, a telescope appeared.

Boarding the chariot and looking towards the military formation of the Yunguo army, you can see some heavy cavalry, hidden in the middle of the Chinese army.

Of course, this is only a small part.

What's more, after the battlefield, behind that small hill, you don't have to think about it, that group of heavy cavalry must be hidden behind the small hill, just wait for the whole army of the Suzaku Legion to attack, and when it can't be recovered at once, that group of heavy cavalry will suddenly attack from behind the hill and form a crushing trend for the Suzaku Legion.

This method of warfare, for the Suzaku Legion, can be said to be very skilled, because the army of Cangguo often has some unexpected weapons, often catch the enemy off guard as soon as they strike, and when they use this weapon for the first time, they generally hide behind first, and when the other party charges or fights, they suddenly move.

In this way, it can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

For example, this time in the Suzaku Legion, the heavy infantry behind the crossbow chariot.

The so-called heavy infantry is something that Cangguo began to lay out after the heavy cavalry equipment was exported to various countries.

Basically, well-equipped armor and changeable tactics are the backbone of the battlefield.

Whether it is siege or field warfare, it can have an excellent performance.

In fact, to a certain extent, heavy infantry and heavy cavalry have the same thing, and they can even be mounted as heavy cavalry and dismounted as heavy infantry, but in comparison, professional heavy infantry is more flexible and changeable.

The heavy infantry of Cangguo can be roughly divided into three categories:

The first type is the general hoplite, which is mainly based on shields and one-handed weapons, which is relatively adaptable to the battlefield and has a wide range of uses.

The second type is the assault infantry, which is dominated by destructive two-handed weapons such as swords and axes, which have a strong impact and often crush weak enemy forces in one fell swoop.

The third category, the spear-based spear infantry and super-long spear, this kind of infantry generally forms a phalanx group to fight, and the training degree is quite high, and it is a kind of group combat effectiveness is very considerable, and it is the most powerful force for infantry to fight cavalry.

Although the heavy infantry also faces disadvantages such as reduced speed and increased physical exertion, it is the nemesis of heavy cavalry in the tacit group cooperation, especially the third category.

Although there are three types of heavy infantry in Cangguo, the first two are a minority, and the typical one is the Vermilion Bird Legion, and the heavy infantry equipped this time is all of the third category.

Heavy infantry armed with pikes and extra-long guns!

Placing the heavy infantry behind the crossbow chariots and before the light infantry can ensure that the heavy infantry can block the charge of the heavy cavalry as soon as the enemy approaches, and block the enemy within this range.

The heavy cavalry, which has lost the ability to charge, in front of the heavy infantry phalanx, which is also heavily armored and equipped with heavy cavalry, is like a fat man planted in a swamp, and can only struggle to the death, making people and pee on their heads, unable to extricate themselves.

Again, there is certainly much more to dealing with cavalry.

Before deciding to fight this battle, the Suzaku Legion had made a lot of preparations, including the preliminary exploration of the terrain and the location of the formation, and had a very important plan.

For example, at this time, in the distance before the heavy infantry, under the cover of the crossbow chariots in front, there were groups of sappers, digging holes at a rapid pace.

All the sappers had a special shovel in their hands, like a semi-cylinder, and they inserted the sharpest section into the dirt, and then turned it, using the groove to bring the dirt out, so that a hole was completed.

Once the heavy cavalry galloped and charged, the horses with four legs, in the case of a very large load, all four legs were indispensable, and once a horse's hoof fell into such a hole, that leg would be immediately broken, and the cavalry on its back would be thrown off.

Then there's the ripple effect.

The cavalry and war horses in front fell, as if forming an impregnable heavy wall, and the heavy cavalry in the back stepped forward one after another, trampling on each other, and they were out of control.

In just half an hour, the front of the infantry was already densely packed with potholes.

After that, small sticks are used as supports and covered with floating soil, and if you don't get close, you can't find these potholes at all.

Of course, when the enemy army is close, that is, when the whole heavy cavalry charges, it is impossible to observe so carefully, and by the time they fall into these holes, it is already too late, and the charging cavalry, especially the heavy cavalry, cannot be stopped in a big battle, and once they stop in the wave of heavy armor, it is tantamount to self-harm.

Of course, it is not enough to set traps in order to defeat the heavy cavalry perfectly, so there is a very important modification on the body of the repeater chariot, which can throw a tripwire when the enemy is about to charge, and then the armor team will install an ambush knife on the chariot, specifically for the horse's hooves.

In this way, the three lines of defense can play a role in restraining the cavalry to the greatest extent.

Anyone who knows a little knows what this means to those 50,000 heavy cavalry.

For these, Cangguo has already practiced it, otherwise, it would not be stupid enough to sell the war machine of heavy cavalry to other countries.

In fact, if there are more big battles between heavy cavalry, and all countries are actively exploring heavy cavalry, then in the near future, they will also be able to find some ways to restrain heavy cavalry.

However, in just a few years, Cangguo is confident that no country can figure out the fatal flaw of heavy cavalry.

For half an hour, the atmosphere of slaughter on the battlefield was much thicker.

Except for the neighing of war horses and the hunting of flags, there is basically no other sound to be heard.

This was the discipline of the two armies, and it also reflected the oppressive and solemn atmosphere between the two sides before the war.

Meng Huo sat on horseback, suppressed the excitement in his heart, stroked his beard, and asked a general next to him, "How many chariots does the enemy have, and are there any other arrangements on all sides?" ”

Chariot!

When Meng Huo said about the chariot, he naturally referred to the repeater chariot.
