Farency

(As you have learned in previous chapters, the trump card of the Fallense is the hussars.) In terms of armor weight, this is a medium-to-light cavalry. The Pharansey hussars were generally armed with treated crusty armor, including cuirass, shoulder armor, and armor to protect the joints; Officers wear zoko armor under leather armor, but most people born in Pharansia do not trust the protection of zozi armor and often do not wear it. Later, Leighton the Great compulsorily added this clause to the military regulations, and Zozi Jia was generally accepted.

The hussars were armed with a spear without a gauntlet, a saber. In the early days of the Falencian army, the hussars were actually more equipped with axes. Later, however, in some scuffles, the Phalensins discovered that the sabers of the Narcibes cavalry were more nimble than their axes, and Barranque Gresden replaced all the equipment of his cavalry with sabers. As for the Falencian spears, because they were generally cheaper, the hussars generally stabbed the enemy and then disarmed them. Later, Sogredelius invented the spear-throwing tactic, and in order to implement this tactic, his Third Legion also tried to improve the spear to make it a weapon that could be used for both assassination and throwing. Of course, this tactic was intended to compensate for the disadvantages against heavy cavalry and infantry phalanxes. Light infantry phalanxes were often disrupted by this tactic, which then gave the hussars an advantage. For heavy cavalry, the spear can often use the relativity of the principle of momentum to give it damage that it could not do before. But for well-trained soldiers, this trick does not work particularly well.

Mastar

The real pride of the Mastars is their heavy infantry, the phalanx, which can be said to be the soul of the Mastar army with a spear of more than 4 faz, an oval shield that can cover the whole person, and a heavy full-body armor. Objectively speaking, no army on the continent would dare to go head-to-head with the Mastar Phalanx, because victory was completely impossible. But again, there are no absolutes on the battlefield. The Mastars, due to the lack of attention to the development of light infantry, especially archers, had almost zero long-range firepower of their army in the early years of the empire. In the 211th year of the Gregorian campaign on the mainland, the Pamis inflicted on the conceited Mastars. But even so, Mastar did not abandon the idea of the Phalanx, but began to equip it with other types of troops to make up for the shortcomings. Eventually, today's Mastar corps and wings were built around the Phalanx. This is akin to not abandoning a bulky heavy tank, but instead using it as the core to equip a complete unit of medium tanks, self-propelled guns, and other armored units. Although in this way the Mastar army re-established its undefeated position, it was limited to "undefeated". Unless it becomes a positional station, it will still be difficult for Mastar to gain an advantage.

Iberia

Before the Grant dynasty was established, Empress Mastar, Sigrani I, commented on the Iberian army, "The soldiers are a group of timid peasants, and the officers are a group of greedy and stupid noble robbers." "The combat effectiveness of the Iberian Army can be imagined.

(William Grant developed a set of tactics tailored to the characteristics of the Iberian army, which we will talk about in the next few chapters, so I won't repeat them here.) ）

Pamis

The Pamis cavalry had always been considered the strongest on the continent, though their western neighbors, the Reynoxians, might not agree. But there is no doubt that in the large-scale cavalry battles that have ever taken place, the Pamis have never been defeated. And the cavalry also performed well against the infantry. All of the above is first and foremost due to the strict discipline of the cavalry. As far as we know, it was very difficult to restrain the cavalry and reorganize them after they had begun to charge. But the Parmis do a great job at this. One-on-one, perhaps a Parmis cavalry is no match for a Reynox cavalry. But if there is a situation of group fighting, then the Renox can only be equal to it in the early stage, and the longer the battle drags on, the more obvious the advantage of the strict discipline of the Parmis will be. Therefore, the idea of simply seeing any Pamiswan cavalry commander as a martial artist is an insult to one's own intelligence. The Mastar Lancers may have been able to maintain a full formation, but they could not be as quick as the Pamis were to regroup as the Palmis did; On the Phalancian side, unless the troops were personally trained and commanded by Sogredelius, the hussars charged no different from a flock of lambs who had lost their heads, except that they could speak and eat meat.

In terms of equipment, the standard equipment of the Pamis cavalry consisted of a bow and a quiver with 20 arrows, a spear without a gauntlet, and a short sword. The Pamis were more sophisticated in spears, and they relied more on spears than swords in melee combat. Of course, we can't rule out that there are a few horsemen who like their special weapons, such as two-handed greatswords, meteor hammers, and chains.

Hitarus

The nostalgia of the army of Hitarus seems to be worse than that of the Mastar, who have been clinging to the old antique chariot, and what is even more hateful is that the Renox and the Mastar people are often at a loss for this antique.

Three tanks followed by 250 infantrymen, which looks a bit like a tank followed by a platoon of infantry today. Hitarus' chariots were set in three, which seemed to facilitate steering and would not be devastating in speed after the death of a horse. There were five members in the car, a driver, two shield-bearers with guns and substitute drivers, and two archers. Because there is infantry cover, the shieldbearer's attention can be more focused on defense. At the same time, due to the relative smoothness of the chariot and the horse, the accuracy of the archer was better than that of the archers of the same quality.

As a result, the Hitaros had better defenses than the Renoxes; Compared to the Mastar, they have better mobility. And even in the hedging, the most massive Mastar lancers on the continent can crush the opponent's chariot line, but they themselves are easily besieged and lose their mobility.

Reynox

(This is a relatively unfamiliar country)

When it comes to the army of Renox, people tend to think of the heavy infantry who were heavy foot and the characteristic cavalry with a fierce style, the Wing Husa, although the Renox people preferred to call themselves "Wind Knights". Wing Husa is an easy class to impress, with their legs curled up high when riding and their charge is typically deadly. But the most noticeable thing is what they have behind them, they carry two cork sticks and stick knives into the cork bars one by one. From a distance, it looks like they have two wings on their backs, which is why the other countries on the continent call them "Wing Husa", which means cavalry in the Reynox language.

Wing Husa was basically descended from a class that the Renox people called "single-court landlords", i.e., wealthier yeoman farmers. In the past, Emperor Reynox gave this class a lot of privileges and care, and in Renox, if a Wing Husa and a count were in a lawsuit, the judge would often favor the side of Wing Husa, unless the count himself was also a "knight of the wind". However, by the end of the Tran Dynasty, a large number of the elite of the Dutacha landlords had died in Parmis in 329, and the prosperity of this class was much less than before.

Mias

"There is no more mobile infantry in this world than them." This is what Saugland Luce said of Mias's spear-thrower. And his evaluation is also appropriate.

These dark-skinned warriors have the best running ability in the world, and their rite of passage is to hunt down an antelope alone and bring back its horns and skin. When a boy is able to accomplish this task on his own, then he is recognized as a qualified warrior and a man. Even children who know a little bit about zoology know that antelopes can maintain speeds of more than 80 kilometers per hour for long periods of time, while even the best sprinters can only reach speeds of 52 kilometers per hour. "They can take all their equipment in an hour, run 10 miles away and immediately go into battle, and if the terrain is rough, they can also spend up to an hour and a half." This is recorded in the "Quotations of the God of War".

The equipment of the Mias people will probably look rudimentary to the uninitiated. They wore almost no armor, and only a few elite warriors and officers wore leather armor. They don't even have shoes and usually run barefoot in the wilderness. Their weapons were 5 to 8 wooden javelins, a weapon made of the hard wood characteristic of Mias, which the Mias could easily throw 60 fazs or more after a run-up. They also carry a poison-hardened blow arrow, which can quickly paralyze people. They also like well-made hunting knives, and when they can't get their hands on them, they opt for machetes made of special hardwood. The shield of the Mias people is very important to them, and the skin of the shield represents the status and abilities of this warrior. After the kingdom was established, only the king and those whom he had appointed could wear the skin of a lion on their shields. Recruits are usually only hunted in their own rites of passage, and those who can be equipped with rhinoceros and crocodile skins are experienced warriors. A good Mias shield, both light and reliable.
