Xianbei's cavalry tactics were very simple, 1,000 cavalry were divided into ten teams, each team of 100 people. In the middle of each echelon, there is enough distance and space to facilitate tactical adjustments such as acceleration and emergency passing.

This is the famous band charge.

Since the birth of cavalry, various tactics have been derived. But what can really give full play to the cavalry impact speed is the wave charge. This can not only give full play to the impact of the cavalry, but also reduce the greater casualties caused by bows and arrows due to their own dense concentration, and also avoid the losses caused by trampling each other. The spacing between the charging teams of each wave should not be too long, otherwise the time exchanged for huge casualties in the previous wave cannot be converted into space, which is meaningless, of course, each wave of cavalry also needs to be equipped with the number of cavalry in each wave according to the lethality of the defender, too little is not a threat.

Generally speaking, the time it takes for an archer to shoot three rounds is exactly the time when the cavalry starts to enter the range and sprints with all their strength to contact. As a result, the cavalry is often in three bands, the first wave bears the greatest casualties, tears open the gap in the defensive line, and buys time for the followers, the second wave expands the results, breaks up the formation, and disintegrates the defensive capability, and the third wave is the pursuit.

Therefore, the band charge is also called the three-band charge.

Due to the lack of archers' cover and suppression, almost immediately, the battlefield entered the fierceness of white-knuckle battles.

The first wave of riders was already close at hand, and Xianbei's extremely skilful horse leaped through the line of vehicles with little effort, and what happened next was enough to make any man's blood boil.

The sword soldiers actually used their flesh and blood, with the help of the shield, to force the cavalry to charge, although it cannot be said that there is no ancient, but this requires great perseverance, great courage, and great fearless spirit.

Almost on the line of life and death, Ji Ling drew his sword and roared angrily into the sky: "Shield of the Thick Earth." ”

The eyes of all the divine sword soldiers suddenly burst into bright red light, and almost subconsciously their shoulders sank, tightly against the back of the shield, and their feet pierced hard, and their whole bodies began to accumulate frantically. A heavy aura that was as heavy as thick earth almost instantly filled the entire formation. Not only did the soldiers not notice it, but even Ji Ling couldn't see a faint yellow light, which spread all over all the divine sword soldiers, like an air mass, surrounding them.

"Shield of the Earth" is a unique natural skill of the Divine Sword Soldier, when used, use the shield to establish a line of defense, while increasing strength by 100%, defense by 100%, and consuming 30 skill points for half an hour. Limited to 24 hours per session.

And He Chen almost stared intently at the cavalry rushing up, it was a matter of success or failure, and he made a move here.

With the help of the powerful impact of the horses, the cavalry slammed into the shields around the sword guards in just a blink of an eye, and some of them couldn't control the rush and slammed into the shield, making a dull sound of "bang"; Some rode their horses into the air, looking for a place to settle in the shield forest; Others simply drew their knives and slashed at the surface of the shield.

Almost at the same time, all the infantry behind the impact shields were knocked to the ground in the midst of screams of pain. Only the pieces of shields, like the towering mountains of Gaolin Towers, are still firmly planted in the ground, like an incomparably strong fortress, which cannot be broken. Although the movements of the Xianbei war horse when they took off were elegant and chic, majestic and handsome, the scene at this time was extremely miserable, some of them were cut by the sharp blades of the shield, the sound of pain and grief resounded in the sky of the grassland, and the hot horse blood sprayed out like rain, and the intestines of flowers flowed all over the ground; Some of the horses, though avoiding their shields, threw out the soldiers they were carrying and fell to the ground with a dull sound. The "Sharpshooter Guard", which had been waiting for a long time, swarmed up, and the cavalry on the ground was a chaotic hug, and hundreds of cavalrymen who had not yet come back to their senses were stabbed all over the body in a blink of an eye, shedding countless holes, and only blood flowed out of Bobo.

The first wave of cavalry charges came to an abrupt end.

Although the stage surname was victorious, in He Chen's heartbroken and desperate eyes, he was pleasantly surprised to find that most of the divine sword soldiers who had been knocked away just now actually rolled on the ground, grunted and got up again, and then spit out a mouth full of sand, wiped the blood splashed all over his face, grinned and scolded, and quickly firmly stood in the position he had just now, looking radiant, looking at the situation, there was almost no injury, at most it could only be regarded as a fall.

At this moment, He Chen burst into tears.

The myth of the invincibility of cavalry charges has finally been shattered.

Judging from the first wave of Xianbei's charge, the sword soldiers can not only withstand the cavalry charge, but also cooperate with the pikemen to launch a counterattack. Your sister, Lao Tzu has so much gold and no white flowers. Cavalry charge invincible? Damn, as long as the uncle can create a 10,000-sided folding shield in the future, he doesn't need the help of auxiliary vehicles at all, and he can directly run the cavalry all over the mountain. What Xianbei cavalry, what Hun cavalry, isn't it like a tiger biting a hedgehog at Lao Tzu, there is nowhere to eat.

But He Chen quickly woke up from the Italian silver, the problem is that Lao Tzu has no money, and he has almost bankrupted himself by creating a thousand folding shields. No, Lao Tzu will have to do everything he can to make money in the future, otherwise when the time comes, the arms will be upgraded and the Divine Sword Corps will be expanded, and there will always be no armor and weapons, right?

The first wave of cavalry was almost completely wiped out, and the sword soldiers only suffered more than 20 wounds and a few killed. This is an astonishing achievement. But He Chen deeply knew that the real threat of the cavalry band charge was the later stages, to put it bluntly, the first wave was cannon fodder.

Commander Xianbei could hardly believe his eyes, since he was born, he had never heard of a soldier who could be so strong as to use his physical strength and a large shield to force the cavalry charge, which almost subverted his ideology. He fought with the Han army several times, and that time the opposing shield soldiers were not afraid of the cavalry's momentum, and forcibly gave way to the road, and then were scattered by the knights, and finally harvested their lives like straws? But what the fuck is going on with this squad of infantry? Did they all have a big stone tied to them?

Commander Xianbei is also a very experienced fellow, learning the lesson of the failure of the first charge, hardly giving the sword soldiers any respite, one after another, wave after wave of teams collectively charged, intending to cut through the shield defense line in one go.

"Dara, Dara" and the momentum of the 900 cavalry group charging up, like a sea of mountains, the momentum is amazing.

The sword soldier stepped down from his horse for another moment, and pressed the folding shield on his shoulder, like a high cliff and mountain wall, let you storm the waves, and I stood still. "Bang, bang" The successive charges made a dull crashing sound, this time knocking all the divine sword soldiers away, but the shield still stood tall there, like a mountain and a sea, unmoving.

Obviously, Xianbei Cavalry has been prepared, not only has the interval between the charging waves been reduced, but also the intensity has increased a lot, almost one link is tightly linked, and the eyes are dizzying. The stunned sword soldiers barely had time to return to their defensive positions, and the cavalry behind them swarmed up like a tide.

The shield array was broken.

But although the cavalry broke the shield formation, the speed of the charge also slowed down.

A small number of soldiers and cavalry, with their skillful horsemanship, almost rushed into the hinterland, but because the speed was forced to slow down, the scimitar could not withstand the countless spears in the inner circle at all, and they fell off their horses and died.

"Draw your sword, kill." At this time, Ji Ling took a three-pointed two-edged knife and rushed out from the rear command line, and with a fierce knife, he cut down a cavalryman on horseback to the ground. All the divine sword soldiers almost did not hesitate to draw out the ring head knife, and in the chaos of the soldiers, there was still a neat and crisp sound of unsheathing.

The sword light scales, and the murderous aura soars into the air.

This ring of swords, of course, is not a weapon equipped with conventional troops in the Western Han Dynasty, but a strengthened and improved version. The handle remains the same, the blade is lengthened, the weight is heavier, there is a blood groove on one side, and the back is thickened, which is more conducive to chopping. He Chen really wanted to promote this improved version of the ring-headed knife to the whole army, but it was still the same sentence, money!

The defense of the sword soldiers is not only unique, but also the offensive ability is not inferior to most of the troops of the same level. Its fierceness is no less than that of the Xianbei warriors.

"Sharpshooter guards, charge in formation." He Chen saw that the two sides began to engage in hand-to-hand combat, and did not hesitate to let Zhang Xiu lead the "Sharpshooter Guard" into the battlefield.

"Kill." Zhang Xiu, who had already seen it, cheered with almost all his strength. Zhang Xiu is a Wuwei person, and he is a mixed-race child, and Qiang Yi has not been bothered by Xianbei in recent years. Now that the new hatred and old hatred are counted together, Zhang Xiu is of course energetic.

Almost instantly, the "Sharpshooter Guards" lined up in formation, all the special spears straight ahead. The soldiers ran forward with heavy steps, the formation was compact and tense, and the movements were uniform and neat. A monstrous murderous aura, in the extremely sharp momentum, quickly enveloped the audience.

If the sharpshooter is a mountain and a majestic atmosphere, then the sharpshooter is a discharged artillery, indestructible.

"Retreat." Ji Ling saw that the sharpshooters had already charged up in formation, and he did not hesitate to give the order to retreat, giving up the entire space for Zhang Xiu to perform.

"Thorn." A simple word, but it is like a thunderbolt exploding on the ground, and rows of dazzling guns under the sun's rays almost pierce out neatly.

The row in front of the "Bang La La" fell to the ground at the same time, whether it was a man or a horse, and almost did not dodge. Even the Xianbei cavalry, who had already swung their swords to block, not only did not swing away the spears that stabbed directly, but were numb from the shock, and the blood did not stop, and then they were stabbed through and died on the horse. At this time, the Xianbei cavalry was completely sad, the horses couldn't rush up, the weapons were not as long as the other party, and they couldn't block it, and they wanted to retreat and they were all their own people. How is this battle going to be fought?

Under the command of Zhang Xiu, the sharpshooter guards advanced and retreated to a certain extent, and almost never let the spears stop, one wave fell, and another wave followed, and the cavalrymen who were almost killed turned over with their horses, and the blood flowed like a river. The powerful attack power of the "Sharpshooter Guard" is vividly displayed at this moment.
