Judging from the same configuration of dozens of people and the last time seen in Penglai Xiandao, this should be the standard configuration of cavalry, all with knee-length armor and connected to a conical helmet chain mail to protect the sides and back of the head and the neck. The helmet and armor are combined to form a set of armor that weighs at least fifty pounds.

Underneath the armor, the cavalry also wore protective pads to reduce the momentum of a blow. Other changes included a nose piece on the helmet, a slash-only sword, and a kite-shaped shield made of wood and leather, which provided better protection for both horses and foot.

Through testing, the hardness and toughness of the metal used in the Crusader weapons, as well as the manufacturing process, were comparable to those of the Great Qin Empire.

However, Zhao Yuan still discovered the gap between the Great Qin Empire and the Crusaders from some details.

The weapon configuration of the Crusaders seems to be more focused on combat efficiency, while the weapon configuration of the Great Qin Empire has extremely high requirements for appearance.

In general, the cavalry of the Great Qin Empire was more powerful and majestic, but the cavalry of the Crusaders was more suitable for combat.

In addition, Zhao Yuan also saw the difference from the weight of the weapon configuration, the cavalry weapon configuration of the Great Qin Empire was mostly about thirty catties, while the weapon configuration of the crusaders was more than fifty catties.

It is worth mentioning that the cavalry of the Heavenly Crusaders was not equipped with bows and arrows, and if the cavalry of the Great Qin Empire was equipped with bows and arrows, then the weight gap between the two would have to be narrowed.

Theoretically, the cavalry of the Great Qin Empire should be more mobile because of the weight reduction, but in fact, this is not the case, because the horses of the Crusaders are taller, and the weight has increased a lot.

Because of the difference in weight, the combat effectiveness of the war horse was leveled, but because the weapon configuration of the crusaders was twenty catties heavier, it also meant that the armor defense ability of the crusaders was stronger, and the attack ability of the weapons also exceeded that of the cavalry of the Great Qin Empire.

Putting aside the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, judging from the configuration of the cavalry alone, the Great Qin Empire has fallen behind.

If you want to defeat the iron cavalry of the Crusaders, unless, use the heavy cavalry of the Great Qin Empire.

Immediately, Zhao Yuan broke this idea, there is no doubt that this is whimsical, because the number of heavy cavalry in the Great Qin Empire is extremely small, and the weapon configuration of one cavalryman can block the property of a village, and it is impossible to equip it on a large scale.

In addition, in the entire Great Qin Empire, strong men who can reach the standard of heavy cavalry will not exceed 10,000 people.

In the face of hundreds of thousands of large corps operations, 10,000 heavy cavalry cannot change the entire battle situation, not to mention, the mobility of heavy cavalry is already doomed to make it impossible to equip it on a large scale.

At present, Zhao Yuan has not come into contact with the infantry of the Crusaders, but judging from the peak military appearance he saw in Penglai Xiandao last time, the infantry of the Crusaders is not inferior to the infantry of the Great Qin Empire.

According to Zhao Yuan's judgment, the Crusader cavalry has the advantage, and the infantry should be on a par with the infantry of the Great Qin Empire......

......

Black-winged Kunpeng!

Suddenly, Zhao Yuan discovered that he had actually ignored an army that could be reversed at any time.

At the beginning, Zhao Yuan saw at least 10,000 black-winged Kunpeng on Penglai Immortal Island.

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Yuan's mouth, and he suddenly understood the reason why the crusaders were not equipped with bows and arrows, because they didn't need them at all.

It seems likely that the situation will be more dire than he imagined.

Not to mention that the Crusader cavalry is already comrades-in-arms, even if they are evenly matched, the Crusaders have the assistance of the Heavenly Army composed of Black-winged Kunpeng, and they must be overwhelming when they conquer the city......

......

Inexplicably, Zhao Yuan thought of the Earth's fighter jets.

Theoretically, the Black-Winged Kunpeng is the same as the fighter jets on Earth, and they both have absolute air superiority.

For the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire, the Black-winged Kunpeng was an absolute nightmare.

It can be imagined that when the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire were fighting bloodily on the city wall, a burst of arrow feathers suddenly fell on their heads, how tormenting it was.

The Black-winged Kunpeng also has an absolute advantage in reconnaissance, and its flight altitude is simply unattainable by bows and arrows, which makes the troop movements of the Great Qin Empire transparent in front of the crusaders, and there is nothing to hide.

Theoretically, with the Black-winged Kunpeng, the Crusaders were already invincible, while the Great Qin army was at an absolute disadvantage.

In such an unequal combat environment, it is not impossible for the Crusaders to conquer the city and sing all the way......

If a fighter can be made, the Great Qin Empire will be able to turn defeat into victory in no time.

A strange smile appeared on Zhao Yuan's face, he couldn't understand why he had such a thought, let alone a fighter with sophisticated craftsmanship, even a simple firearm, it was impossible to produce it in a short time, because it was a complex industrial system engineering, which involved not only metal smelting, but also biochemistry, machinery, electronics, and so on.

Of course, Zhao Yuan can also refine weapons to make firearms, but one gun and two guns can't change the fate of the Great Qin Empire......

In short, without a complete industrial system, it is impossible to copy the earth's weapons, and Zhao Yuan also lacks a high-quality scientific research team, and he himself only understands the scientific civilization on the ground in the literal sense, and basically knows nothing about industrial manufacturing.

Of course, even if it were possible, Zhao Yuan would not put it into action, because he was a cultivator, not an earthling, and it was impossible for him to spend a lot of time and energy studying the industrial civilization of the earth.

In addition, Zhao Yuan did not want to bring the pollution of the earth to the Zhanyun Continent.

"Quack ......"

Suddenly, the Yunhai Golden Eagle on his shoulder let out a warning chirp, interrupting Zhao Yuan's thinking.

Zhao Yuan listened attentively, and in the distance, there was a sound of iron hooves.

Apparently, there were crusaders galloping towards this side.

With a move of Zhao Yuan's long sleeves, a hurricane blew out of thin air, and the corpses and debris on the ground were all swept into the sky, and then, burning a raging fire, but in the blink of an eye, the dozens of corpses were all engulfed in flames and turned into wisps of green smoke......

The flames were extinguished and the prairie was quiet, as if nothing had happened, but the bloodstained meadows were a reminder that there had been brutal slaughter.

The gaze of a group of cosmic hunters changed from horror to fanatical adoration.

"Let's go!"

Zhao Yuan rode his horse first and galloped away in the opposite direction of the pursuers.

At present, under the unclear situation, Zhao Yuan does not want to engage with the Crusaders in close combat, after all, he is a cultivator, and he still has to follow some rules, and he cannot kill mortals on a large scale.

In the history of cultivation, there are also many gods and cultivators who have intervened in human wars, but there are certain limits to their involvement, for example, most cultivators will only fight with the other party's generals, and rarely participate in the slaughter of the two armies.

Zhao Yuan can also intervene in the battle between the Great Qin Empire and the Crusaders, after all, the other party also has some strange people, and there is no problem in intervening, but it is the human soldiers who really decide the victory or defeat of the two armies, because, to occupy the vast territory and hold the huge city, it is still the human warriors, one or two cultivators, they may be able to achieve victory locally, but it is difficult to play a decisive role.

Often, cultivators and gods intervene in human warfare primarily to set an example, inspiring the morale of human soldiers, convincing them that their supernatural powers can help them achieve victory, and thus fight more bravely.

In fact, it can be seen from some ancient books on the earth, in the "Fengshen List", every time the generals who lead the troops to fight, the victorious side must be the military spirit, a drum like a tiger, the defeated side, most of them are defeated like a mountain, and they will collapse at the first touch......

If it was really just someone more powerful than the cultivators, then there was no need for hundreds of thousands or even millions of human armies at every turn, after all, a cultivator could make countless human beings die with just one supernatural ability.

In general, in the war between human beings, cultivators can only guide, but cannot directly decide, and the outcome of victory ultimately depends on ordinary human beings.

If you want to change the war situation of the Great Qin Empire, you must first let the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire regroup and take back the cities one by one......

......

Zhao Yuan suddenly reined in the war horse, because, in front, there was a small town.

A group of hunters stood quietly behind Zhao Yuan.

The hunters of the meteorite belt all had a good understanding of the Great Qin Empire in the Battle Cloud Continent from Zhao Yuan, so they all knew very well that they couldn't give any advice, and everything was based on Zhao Yuan's decision.

After thinking about the familiar time, Zhao Yuan made a decision,

Take a look into the town.

Only by approaching the crowd can we learn the true intelligence of the Great Qin Empire.
