Chapter 630 (1/2)
In fact, the origin of heavy cavalry was the period of Wei, Jin, southern and Northern Dynasties. During this period, the barbarians and nomads in the north of the Yangtze River moved southward and occupied the vast territory north of the Yangtze River. They relied on the armour and riding equipment with strong impact force and armored men and horses. The heavy cavalry swept both sides of the Yellow River like a whirlwind, beating the weak defenders of the Jin Dynasty.
In modern times, the tank broke through the front in an irresistible state with the body of steel, while the infantry moved slowly behind the tank.
The heavy cavalry was the ancient tank.
However, heavy cavalry can not only Assault Infantry, but also light cavalry.
”Think about it.” Liu Ye boldly said: ”the biwuhuan cavalry came to invade China in a large scale, and I broke through with armour and riding gear, just like the steel wall advancing layer by layer, destroying the withered and decaying. How dare not the Wuhuan soldiers be frightened?”
In the minds of the generals, there were pictures of the attack with armour and riding equipment. It seemed that the victory was near at hand.
”Good!” Ma Chao excitedly said: ”if the Lord does not give up, Ma Mengqi is willing to lead the armed forces to fight against the enemy front and capture the head of tuodun!”
Liu Ye nodded approvingly: ”well, in this case, Meng Qi will be responsible for the task of commanding armour's riding equipment.”
Ma Chao is brave and has excellent martial arts skills, and armour and riding gear are well-known for their impact force. What they pay attention to is that they can break ten associations with one force. No matter who you are, I just need to hit them at one breath and break everything.
”Although the armour riding equipment has not yet been used in the war, it will surely become famous in the world after breaking through Wuhuan.” Ma Dai stepped forward and said, ”please give me the name of the armour and riding gear.”
”Well.” Liu Ye pondered for a while, and then said, ”the armor, riding equipment, men and horses are all wearing armor. It's like riding a mountain on your back, which is irresistible. In this case, let's call it the negative Yue army. ”
”Please rest assured Ma Chao stepped forward and said boldly: ”on the day of the decisive battle, Chao will surely live up to his expectations and lead the army of negative Yue to defeat the enemy.”
During the military parade at Pingle Temple of Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, although the armour and riding equipment were displayed, there were not many visitors, so it was not exposed.
As a matter of fact, although Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty displayed the armour and riding equipment of a thousand people during the military parade, they had never participated in the war. Therefore, until now, the princes in the world have not been able to organize any heavy cavalry troops. It was not until the Wei, Jin, southern and Northern Dynasties that Jiaqi, with its huge impact, crossed the north of the Yangtze River and crushed the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains.
When the time comes, I think the armour must be equipped with riding gear, and it will be able to make a big splash.
”When Boan's Navy transported 1000 horse armor, they immediately installed it on the horses to prevent the cavalry from training and adapting to the armour and riding gear.” Liu Ye said: ”Meng Qi, you should train well these days and don't let down the expectation of this general. Do you understand?”
Ma Chao promised: ”please rest assured that the general will live up to his trust.”
Liu Ye nodded: ”well, Wuhuan cavalry are all one man and two horses. The speed of going south is very fast. Let's hurry up.”
He left without saying goodbye these days. He specially circled a piece of land just for these two things. The successful development of horseshoe can prolong the service life of war horses, while the use of armour and riding equipment greatly increases the impact force of war horses. Under the combination of the two, the ”iron pontu” of the Han Dynasty will soon be released.
