Chapter 1506 New and Old Cavalry Battle

The battlefield situation is changing rapidly.

When the light cavalry of the Wehrmacht opened up the wall charge formation, Dolzi Selen could no longer make outflanks.

The biggest advantage of the wall assault formation is that it can take into account both wings.

If Dolji Seleng still forcibly plays outflanking tactics, then the running distance must be increased by at least five times.

In that way, it is not outflanking.

Instead, he was driven out of the battlefield.

He didn't know how long he could last head-on, so a quick fix was the only way.

He was also decisive, and immediately changed his formation to confront the light cavalry of the Wehrmacht.

The Third Cavalry Division is a wall charge formation, while the Horqin cavalry is a wedge charge.

It has to be admitted that the afterglow of the Mongolian Yuan Empire still exists.

The Mongolian cavalry running at high speed formed three wedge-shaped charge formations immediately after receiving the order, hitting the charge section of the Wehrmacht cavalry like three nails.

In Dolji Sereng's view, the chances of winning this battle are very high.

The Han people really can't play cavalry.

On such a battlefield, they actually charge through the wall, but they are not heavy cavalry, so they will definitely be pierced by our side.

And once it is pierced through, the formation of the light cavalry of the National Defense Forces will be in chaos, and it will be a scene where the Mongolian cavalry willfully demonstrate their martial arts.

The two cavalry charged head-on, and the distance was getting closer and closer.

Unanimously, both sides drew their bows and arrows first.

It is a common practice in cavalry tactics to use bows and arrows to give effective and sufficient damage to the opponent before the collision and weaken the enemy's strength.

The Mongolian cavalry drew the bow and stringed it, while lying firmly on the horseback, silently calculating the appropriate shooting distance in their hearts.

But in their eyes, the opposing cavalry of the Wehrmacht had already aimed their arrows in the air.

There are still nearly two hundred steps away. Wouldn't all the arrows be shot at this time?

Before the Mongols figured it out, the National Defense Forces fired the first wave of arrows.

The sky suddenly darkened, and then thousands of arrows enveloped the Mongols.

"how can that be?"

Dolji Sereng is also considered a famous player on the battlefield. Seeing this scene, his heart skipped three beats in shock.

It is really the bow and arrow of the Wehrmacht that is too unexpected.

At a distance of nearly [-] steps, even if the Mongolian cavalry came head-on, it would have been impossible to shoot them.

The screams soon agitated in the Mongolian queue, and many people and horses fell down one after another, raising clouds of smoke and dust.

Dorji Sereng simply stopped thinking about it, raised himself up suddenly, and shot the arrow in his hand.

It was the turn of the Mongols to fight back.

Be sure to let the Han people see who is the king of riding and shooting.

But when the Mongols' arrow rain flew to the highest point, there was also a rain of arrows forming an intertwined head-on.

Dolji Seleng's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help but be tongue-tied.

In such a short period of time, the Wehrmacht cavalry actually fired a second round of arrows!

This is something that the Mongolian cavalry cannot do.

Two waves of arrow rain crossed in the air and landed on each other's heads respectively, causing considerable casualties.

But for some reason, the casualties of the Mongols visible to the naked eye were far greater than those of the National Defense Forces.

At this time, no one has time to shoot another round of arrows.

But in any case, the National Defense Forces have always had one more round of bow and arrow firepower than the Mongols, and they have taken more advantage.

Both sides retracted their bows at the same time and picked up their melee weapons.

The people in the front row gritted their teeth and shouted desperately, as if to cheer themselves up, their eyes fixed on the weapon in the opponent's hand.

The Mongols have a wide variety of melee weapons.

There are not only long-handled weapons such as maces and broadswords, but also short-handled weapons such as machetes and axes.

In contrast, the National Defense Forces are all sabers.

This comparison doubled the confidence of the Mongolian cavalry.

One inch long, one inch strong.

In the face of a mace and a broadsword, such a thin saber would surely shatter at the touch of it.

In the blink of an eye, the first platoons of cavalry from both sides mingled together.

Mongol cavalrymen with maces don't make any swinging movements at all, just place their weapons forward.

In this way, it is only necessary to move the direction of the weapon within a small range to knock down the opponent.

Seeing the cavalry of the National Defense Army on the opposite side raise their sabers high, the Mongolian knights smiled triumphantly.

What's the use of struggling like this?

No matter how high the saber is raised, the difference in length is there, and he is still the one who wins in the end.

But soon the joy of the Mongolian cavalry turned to surprise.

The soldiers of the Wehrmacht slashed down like lightning with their sabers raised high, but they were not aimed at people, but at the mace's club.

Although the saber is not as long as the mace, the head of the mace is also not as long as the saber.

The moment the two sides collided, the blade of the saber slashed on the stick of the mace.

Although the stick was covered with a layer of iron, and it was as thick as a wrist, it was instantly broken into two pieces by a saber strike.

Although the remaining sticks still hit the Wehrmacht soldiers and knocked them off their horses.But without the spikes on the club, the soldier only fell, not fatally.

The first time he rolled to the ground, he dodged to the side almost like a conditioned reflex.At the same time, the whole body is contracted to protect the vital points.

Before the Mongolian cavalrymen could wake up from their astonishment, the second war horse had already arrived in front of them at high speed.

The cold light was like training, sending his head into the air.

Dolji Sereng thought that the wedge-shaped charge would definitely be able to penetrate the wall charge of the Wehrmacht cavalry.

The final result was indeed that the Mongolian cavalry passed through.

But that's all.

Because the remaining Mongolian cavalry has become scattered and out of scale.

Although the power of the wedge-shaped assault formation is more concentrated, and the front and rear are closely connected, the attack power is wave after wave, seemingly endless.

But the wedge-shaped assault formation has a fatal weakness.

That is the lack of defense and attack on both sides.

The weapons in the hands of the Mongolian cavalry, the mace and the broadsword, cannot be brandished and can only be laid flat.

The quality of weapons used by opponents in the past is similar to theirs, so maces and broadswords placed in this way can cause enough damage.

However, in front of the saber made of stainless steel alloy of the National Defense Forces, the mace and broadsword were chopped off one after another, causing no harm at all.

However, the machetes of the Mongols are limited in length, far inferior to the sabers of the National Defense Forces.

As the two sides fought each other, the Mongols suffered a great loss.

When the Mongols passed the National Defense Forces in a wedge formation, they were constantly being attacked by the National Defense Forces from both wings.

The weak defense of the two wings and the cut off weapons made the Mongolian cavalry constantly peeled like pineapples.

The more you cut it, the thinner it is.

In the end, when the two armies staggered, the Mongols actually suffered more than half of the casualties.

Dolji's scalp was numb, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly sent an order to let all the ministries come back quickly to prepare for the second wave of confrontation.

But the approach of the Wehrmacht frustrated his plan.

After the first wave of confrontation, the Wehrmacht slowly slowed down their horses.When it was about to stop, with the sound of the trumpet, the rear formation changed to the front formation, and the front formation changed to the rear formation, almost equivalent to completing the turn on the spot.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry was still drawing arcs and reorganizing their formation, so they had to face another cavalry of the National Defense Army rushing towards the wall.

More advanced cavalry tactics and more advanced weapons taught the Mongols a good lesson.
