Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

After all, if it were one of thirty linked horses,

If even one horse has a problem...

This would hinder the execution of the entire linked cavalry formation.

If three or four horses have problems...

That row of linked cavalry,

I'm afraid everything will descend into chaos!

To practice the coordinated teamwork of the linked cavalry.

Huyan Zhuo first divided his soldiers into several rows.

He was then ordered not to wear iron armor and horse armor.

Then practice sprinting the whole row repeatedly!

As the number of repetitions increases,

A series of linked cavalry,

And from the very beginning, it was unfamiliar.

They dragged each other down.

They gradually became more and more in sync!

Huyan Zhuo looked at his subordinates,

The armored cavalry, which was gradually gaining some momentum,

A surge of heroic spirit welled up within him.

"Although we haven't reached the full three thousand, we have these fifteen hundred linked cavalrymen before us,"

"Dealing with mere bandits should be more than enough!"

.....

Just as the three generals Huyan Zhuo, Peng Qi, and Han Tao were...

While training armored linked cavalry in Bianliang, the capital of the Eastern Capital,

On Liangshan Marsh,

Zhao Yuan was also watching Xu Ning train with the hook-and-sickle spear, a weapon specifically designed to counter the chained horse formation!

According to this golden gunman,

This hook-and-sickle spear technique,

It was specifically created to counter cavalry.

As the saying goes,

Shoot the man first and shoot the horse first!

This hook-and-sickle spear technique is effective against cavalry.

They're also taking a route that restrains the horses!

The soldiers carried spears that were not ordinary ones.

Rather, it refers to all the halberds used in ancient battles!

However, compared to the ancient halberds that were often over ten feet long,

The hook-and-sickle spear has been given a different name.

Its length is similar to that of an ordinary spear.

Below the spearhead,

A sharp blade, at least an inch long, lies horizontally!

When dealing with the cavalry,

The hook-and-sickle spearmen first used the cross-blade of their spearheads to sever the horses' legs.

Then when the horse fell down

Then attack the soldiers with the spearhead!

From this point on,

It's not hard to see,

These hook-and-sickle spearmen

The most important thing is the courage to face the attack of the cavalry!

And that's the most difficult part!

A horse's charge,

It may not seem like much,

But hundreds or thousands of horses charge at you at once.

That magnificent, unstoppable momentum...

If untrained,

It can easily make your legs weak.

This caused them to become hesitant and fearful!

Facing the highly mobile cavalry...

The retreat gained soldiers.

How could they possibly escape their pursuit!

Therefore,

Xu Ning commanded over a thousand elite soldiers handpicked from Liangshan.

The first thing we did was build courage!

Don't say anything else,

At least when facing an enemy cavalry charge,

Have the courage to face challenges head-on!

otherwise,

No matter how skilled one is in the hook-and-sickle spear technique,

That's useless!

After building up their courage,

That is the true practice of the hook-and-sickle spear technique!

So this hook-and-sickle spear technique...

Besides breaking horses' legs and stabbing cavalrymen,

There's also a unique technique for dodging trampling cavalry...

Chapter 691 Hook and Sickle Spear

It's normal to think that way.

Facing the oncoming charge,

The cavalry, with their imposing momentum,

If hook-and-sickle spearmen had no means of self-preservation...

Wouldn't that turn into a wave of sacrifice strategies?

Even if the horse's legs are cut off

They killed the cavalrymen on it.

Even he himself could not escape death!

If that's the case

Several more soldiers,

I'd be willing to be a hook-and-sickle spearman, a position with a guaranteed death!

.....

Liangshan Martial Arts Ground

Zhao Yuan stood on the stage,

Looking down with satisfaction,

These hook-and-sickle spearmen trained by Xu Ning

Just now,

To verify the effectiveness of these hook-and-sickle spearmen against cavalry.

Zhao Yuan obtained an old and sick horse from the mountain.

Thirty horses were selected.

Rided by cavalry soldiers

They charged towards the same number of hook-and-sickle spearmen.

The final result is...

The first to charge were about ten cavalrymen.

The horse's legs were severed by the hook-and-sickle spearmen.

More than twenty cavalrymen followed closely behind.

Another half,

Because there was no time to stop.

It crashed directly into the dead horse carcass in front of it!

In the blink of an eye

The hook-and-sickle spearmen inflicted heavy losses on the cavalry.

Although in the end,

Six of them themselves were also injured by the impact of the horses.

And were injured

But this record

This can also be considered as making Liangshan,

All the leaders were completely taken aback!

"Teacher Xu's hook-and-sickle spear is truly formidable!"

"It's always been the cavalry who bully the infantry, but I never expected to see the infantry defeat the cavalry today!"

"Well done, Teacher Xu!"

.....

The group of leaders surrounded Xu Ning in a chaotic manner.

Or congratulations.

Or perhaps you could ask them for advice on how to subdue cavalry.

Meanwhile, on the stands...

Liangshan gained three strategists.
