Qin Dong didn't know that Hado and Ramado were calculating him, and Qin Dong was very happy at this time, Alfald actually came back, and he came back with more than two hundred and sixty mercenary cavalry.

With these two hundred and sixty mercenary cavalry, the cavalry that Qin Dong could command under his command reached 700, plus more than 300 infantry, and there were about 1,000 available soldiers.

With the two hundred and sixty cavalry brought by Affard, Qin Dong was ready to start forming heavy cavalry, with these people as the basic backbone, he personally served as the chief officer of this heavy cavalry, and Affard as the deputy, and then gradually increased the number of people to form a considerable number of heavy cavalry troops.

Qin Dong planned this heavy cavalry like this, preparing to make every knight wear armor, and the knight's weapon was a four-meter-two spear, plus a short sword for self-defense, but now these two hundred and sixty people must be trained again before they can be pulled into the battlefield. Last time, Qin Dong saw that the individual fighting ability of these cavalry was very good, but when charging collectively, they lacked training, lacked unity and coordination, and ran out of a certain distance and the formation was scattered, which would lose the attack power of the heavy cavalry when they rushed into formation.

In fact, Qin Dong has been hesitant to train a chain horse heavy cavalry unit, the so-called chain horse, is to connect the horses of two knights with iron locks, so that the power of the charge will be doubled, the chain horse appeared in the Song Dynasty in China, Jin Guo's general Jin Wushu has such a chain of horse heavy cavalry troops, known as "Iron Floating Tu".

Tiefutu was invincible at that time, the Song army had no troops to resist, in fact, it was not that there was no army to resist, but the Song army had long been afraid of the Liao and Jin countries in the north, and the army did not have the courage to fight.

Many people have doubted the actual combat ability of the chain horse heavy cavalry, including the Kangxi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty in later generations, also raised several questions, that the combat ability of the cavalry is mainly reflected in the flexibility and rapid charge, if the horses are connected with iron chains, then it will inevitably cause steering difficulties, greatly weakening the mobility of the cavalry, there is another questioning point, that is, there is a gap between horses and horses, knights and knights, if the horses are connected with iron chains, Then the weak knight will definitely drag the strong knight back.

Qin Dong has also studied this, he believes that for the heavy cavalry, what is needed is not mobility and flexibility, but its strong ability to charge into formation, as long as it can complete a frontal impact and disperse the enemy's formation, then the task of the heavy cavalry will be completed, and the rest of the matter will be handed over to the archers and other auxiliary troops to solve. In China, where the terrain is complex, the combat capability of the heavy cavalry will be limited by the terrain, and the actual combat capability of the heavy cavalry may really be questionable, but in the endless European plains, there is rarely a problem that the terrain restricts the combat ability of the cavalry, so Qin Dong believes that it is feasible to form a heavy cavalry like Tiefutu in Europe, but it is a pity that such heavy cavalry costs too much.

In Qin Dong's big tent, Alfald saluted and said, "My lord, the villain has brought all the two hundred and sixty mercenary cavalry under him, and it is up to the adult to decide how to arrange it!" ”

Qin Dong looked at Alfald and said, "Lord Ben decided to break up these two hundred and sixty people and reorganize them separately, what do you think?" ”

"The villain is now a subordinate of the adult, and he should obey the orders of the adult!" Alfald bent over.

The temptation was completed, and Qin Dong saw that Affabad had no intention of forming these two hundred and sixty people into a team again, so he smiled and said: "Hahaha, forget it, these two hundred and sixty people have stayed together for a long time, and they all have a tacit understanding, if Lord Ben breaks them up again, it will take a long time to train them and other soldiers to have a tacit understanding, so let's not break up these people, let's let them form a team together, Affald!" ”

"Yes, the villain is here!" Alfold bowed again.

Qin Dong touched his chin and said: "Lord Ben decided to form a heavy cavalry with these two hundred and sixty people plus those who surrendered with you last time, each with two horses, both men and horses are wearing armor, each knight is equipped with a spear with a length of three feet and a short weapon, the chief officer of this heavy cavalry is personally served by me, and you serve as my deputy, I know that you people are very good in individual combat ability, but when the heavy cavalry group charges, it relies on collective strength, pays attention to discipline, prohibits, and neatly formation, You can't mess up the formation when charging, otherwise the attack power of the heavy cavalry will be reduced! I don't know what you mean? ”

Of course, this kind of good thing is undesirable for Alfard, what he is most worried about is that Qin Dong will use them as cannon fodder, no matter what era, which war, the casualties of cannon fodder are the largest, the reason why he took his brothers to Qin Dong is that he thinks that Qin Dong has the resources of a hero, and second, he wants to find a full meal for the brothers, instead of being used as cannon fodder, now Qin Dong has formed a heavy cavalry unit with him and these mercenary cavalry brought by him, of course he is 100,000 willing, and immediately knelt down and said: "My lord, The subordinates received the order, thank you for looking up to Alfald and the other brothers, and the subordinates will swear allegiance to the lord! ”

The matter was thus decided, Qin Dong asked the blacksmith workshop to start crafting the armor of knights and horses, as well as the spear of three lometers long, these things could not be built in a short time, but the training could be started first.

At this time, the camp was full of troops training, not only the three archers and Qin Dong's escort team were training tirelessly every day, but the more than 300 infantry were also training under the supervision of Ma Li every day, and the whole camp was in full swing.

The new heavy cavalry began to train in the same formation as the infantry, except that the infantry was on the ground, while the heavy cavalry was on horseback.

The whole heavy cavalry unit was divided into more than 20 platoons, each platoon had a Hun cavalry training their equestrian skills and formation, until these more than 200 people lined up in a neat phalanx and rode horses without scattering and could turn at any time.

After the horseback riding and walking training is almost done, the training of horseback galloping begins, or the team is required to be in the process of galloping horses can not be scattered, the front and back are the same, neither anyone stands out to the front, no one lags behind, it is always a neat line.

The second training is the step of attacking with a gun before approaching the enemy phalanx, this step is broken down into several small steps, the spear must be finally put on the special equipment of the horse before the attack, and the impact force is applied to the horse, you must know that when the heavy cavalry charges, it is not the knight who holds the spear to poke the enemy in front of him, unless the enemy is also a cavalry, only with a spear can he highly stab the enemy knight, and in general, because once charged, the huge impact force formed by the heavy cavalry is simply not able to withstand the knight's arm, The light knight's arm will be dislocated, the heavy knight's bones will be broken, and the stricter thing is that the knight will not be able to hold the spear when the resistance is too great, and if the spear is pressed against himself, the whole person will be pushed upside down by the spear and fly out.

Especially the heavy infantry phalanx that attacked the Roman Empire with heavy cavalry, those heavy infantry were hiding behind large shields, and some even defended into a tortoise shell formation, not only erecting shields in front of them, but also shields on top of their heads, if you want to break up such a heavy infantry phalanx, you must use the super long spears of heavy cavalry to collide with the opponent's shields, how much resistance do you have to encounter? Can the knight's arm with a gun withstand it? (Some film and television dramas are pure nonsense!) ）

After a few days of training, this heavy cavalry is slowly changing, and if you want to become an army, you must go through a period of training, and it is not until the training is completed that you can form an effective battle.
