Inside the chariot formation, Liu Baiyu's spear formation was cut diagonally by the cavalry of various Japanese vassals. When the spear formation was on the verge of collapse, with a loud signal as a signal, the chariots in the inner circle of the spear formation suddenly dispersed, and then

The cavalry that had always looked like monsters came out and stabbed in from the slope where the shogunate cavalry charged!

"Monster, monster!"

"Gods and Buddhas, please save us, we don't want to go to hell!"

The shogunate's cavalry collapsed in an instant. It was not just the front troops who had to be stabbed diagonally, but the center army collapsed, and the rear army also collapsed.

There is nothing to say about the front team who was stabbed diagonally. After all, any strong army that is attacked by cavalry will collapse in an instant, just like a martial arts master who attacks with all his strength and is injured by a hooligan looking at him from an oblique angle.

.

But the collapse of the Chinese rear army is difficult to understand. After all, the characteristic of Japan is that its troops come from various vassal states and have independent command systems. There is no chain collapse like the Ming Dynasty, but...

Does having courage when facing people mean having courage when facing monsters? In the eyes of the Japanese, the cavalry on the opposite side is monsters!

You must know that in the eyes of the Japanese, horses are animals that are not much taller than donkeys. In their eyes, the short Mongolian horses are the so-called tall horses-----For the Shire horse, the shoulder height is often high.

More than 2 meters, at least 2.6 meters from the top of the head to the bottom, and weighing more than a ton, you can only think of it as a devil dressed in horses!

What's more important is that the Sharma can pull 5 tons of weight. It is a knight carrying a full steel armor and can move freely even wearing a full steel vest - an invulnerable monster paired with a guy weighing one ton.

Rushing up and crushing the so-called Japanese cavalry who are as big as donkeys is no better than a cat catching a mouse!

The Japanese shogunate's cavalry and the Shima cavalry collided, knocking the shogunate's cavalry down to the ground with both men and horses, and then they were trampled into a mass of flesh and blood...

It's not that these Japanese samurai are not brave. Many samurai are not afraid to use sharp samurai swords to attack the Sharma cavalry.

Although protected by the full-steel armor of the Sharma cavalry, it was due to excessive force. Some of the samurai swords were shattered by the impact, some of the tiger's jaws were broken, and some of them screamed and suffered broken hands. -

----There is only one thing in common, that is, you fight back hard, but you only hurt yourself, but the other party is not harmed at all!

This kind of thing was a fatal blow to morale in the cold weapon era, and the impact of the gun array's damage on the enemy and the cavalry's impact on the enemy's morale were completely inconsistent. The former had more casualties, giving people the impression that the enemy would have to work harder

I feel like I can't stand it anymore, so the attacker can still support it, but the latter just wants to see

Watching the other party beat up your companions one by one is a feeling of despair, or to be more cruel, actively seeking death and passively waiting for death are two completely different things. The former can boost morale, while the latter can only demoralize.

Crazy decline, and in the era of cold weapons, morale is often much more important than casualties!

If this is the case, it may still be within the understanding of the Japanese samurai, but the appearance of the Shima cavalry is really too scary-----the waistcoats and armors from top to bottom are painted black.

There is a human-sized skull in the middle of the knight's helmet and breastplate. The one on the helmet is blood red, and the one in the middle of the breastplate is pale white. Both skulls are bleeding.

Two tears of blood ------ If it is a cloudy day, some timid ancients can be frightened to death. Although the Japanese samurai are so bold that they will chop down anything that looks like a ghost with a knife, but if the ghost is invulnerable

And if an attack would shatter the samurai's bones into pieces, then the samurai's reactions would not be much different from those of the timid ancients...

"What ghosts, iron artillery team, stop these Malaysian knights!" Tokugawa Iemitsu made the right choice at the first time. Iemitsu didn't believe in the rumors of monsters, or in Tokugawa Iemitsu's eyes,

Those things that only conspire to harm people are unlikely to appear on a large scale during the day...

It's just that Tokugawa Iemitsu's musketeers didn't have the protection of pikemen in front of them, so they naturally didn't have the courage to fire when they were close, so they fired when they were a hundred steps away...

There was a loud crackling sound of muskets, but because they were far out of range, they were unable to penetrate the all-steel breastplate of the Sharma cavalry, or even cause any damage.

However, the Japanese samurai were ruthless enough. The musketeers in the first row simply acted as human shields, and the musketeers in the second row and the musketeers in the third row aimed and shot. Of course, the musketeers in the first row would not survive, and the musketeers in the second row would not survive.

After the third row of musketeers fires a shot, they will probably be directly hit by the Sharma cavalry and smashed to pieces - to put it bluntly, dying together is the best result, but the premise is that they must die.

Liu Baiyu rode a horse from a distance and looked through the binoculars. He was completely convinced. This seemed to be a different planet from his peasant musketeers who broke down after killing people! It seems that his soldiers must exercise courage and even become cruel.

Otherwise, no matter how sophisticated the weapons are, they are useless without courage. In fact, what about modern weapons? In black Africa, black people are armed with modern automatic weapons and artillery. It is not news that they killed more than 20 people in a day of fierce fighting. Do you think these people face the cavalry?

Will it be possible to withstand it?

But then again, if the gap in weapons is too big, courage can't really make up for it. After all, no one except a mental patient can guarantee that he will never be afraid, right? The Tokugawa musketeer's spirit collapsed directly as he regarded death as home...

If the first row of musketeers was too panicked and fired without entering the shooting range, leaving the Sharma cavalry unharmed, the second row of musketeers fired from a distance of sixty steps, and the third row of musketeers fired from a distance of thirty steps.

, should be completely within range, and should be able to knock down at least a few Sharma cavalry, but...

"What? It's okay if the lead bullet of the musket hits you head-on! You monster!" Tokugawa Iemitsu also panicked and even forgot to command the troops!

That's right, the lead projectile hit the vest or breastplate of the Sharma cavalry firmly, making a loud noise, and then... it was ejected alive from the side of the breastplate!

"You monster! You can't be killed!"

"The sorcery of the Ming people!"

There are some people who can treat death as if they were dead, but there are only a few people who can do it and die in vain, so the musketeers of the shogunate also collapsed!

Moreover, the direct collapse of the shogunate's musketeers also caused a chain reaction. The invulnerable giant knights are not scary, but who is not afraid of the demon knights who are helpless against armor-piercing lead projectiles? Even Tokugawa Iemitsu, who is commanding from far behind, is scared, isn't it?

It is normal to bomb the camp...

It's just that for the musketeers of the shogunate, running at this time was a complete joke, and they were directly knocked away by the Sharma cavalry. These musketeers of the shogunate had actually been sentenced to death in the air. After all, the cavalry of the shogunate were like this.

The one-ton monster charged up and seven

The small locomotives of the 1900s are almost the same. It is a matter of course that the sternum and ribs are smashed. If a person is injured like this, it will be difficult for gods to do it. Those who are lucky enough to survive will be trampled to pieces by the Sharma cavalry.

, there’s no need for last-ditch blows….

Tokugawa Iemitsu, the shogunate's musketeers, and even ordinary netizens all thought that at such a close distance, a direct hit by the shogunate's musketeers' lead projectiles would definitely break the armor -- this is common sense.

.

However, this refers to the kind of plate armor from the East. Because people at that time did not understand the physics, many people thought that the heavier and thicker the armor, the better - but this is not the case. Too heavy armor consumes physical strength and affects

Not to mention mobility, just relying on defense power alone to defend against blunt weapons, sharp weapons, and long-range bows and arrows does not mean that the heavier the armor, the better. You have to follow the prescription...

For example, for attacks by sharp weapons such as bows and arrows, knives and guns, iron plate armor is undoubtedly the best, but for the lead projectiles of musketeers, iron plate armor is not good. The armor of the Qing army is an example.

In order to deal with the Ming army, which used firearms extensively,

The Qing army used cloth armor on the outside to reduce the initial velocity of lead projectiles, and the iron leaves lined on the inside served as the second line of defense. Non-humans like Obai could wear three layers of such armor, and the weight was about the same as ordinary iron plate armor.

Less than 20%, while the number of lead projectiles has dropped sharply...

So how reliable is the statement that you can defeat the Manchu Qing Dynasty without using musketeers without taking out a phalanx of spears? Do you think there is only a slight difference between these lead projectiles and modern bullets? In fact, that is not the case

Not the same thing!

However, if we get to the bottom of it, can lead projectiles definitely defeat iron plate armor? Not necessarily! To be precise, lead projectiles can defeat iron plate armor with regular shapes! Iron plate armor relies on special

Its shape and special texture can completely cut through lead projectiles - in fact, in Europe, irregular iron plate armor faced the lead projectiles of musketeers, and the competition for improvement lasted for nearly two hundred years.

!

Liu Baiyu's plate armors are all European-style, and lead projectiles will most likely be bounced off if hit. In addition, his plate armors are essentially modern steel plate armors, which are stronger than iron plate armors.

, that's a huge difference, even if the steel plate armor is occasionally broken, there are still three layers of inner armor inside.

A is not the case. The three layers of inner armor are also black, which is enough to protect the Sharma cavalry from harm. Moreover, because the shogunate was frightened, they naturally would not observe carefully. It was so dark that I really thought they were wearing Liu Baiyu.

Even lead projectiles cannot break through the steel plate armor.

It should be said that Liu Baiyu used all kinds of technical means to the limit within the scope allowed by the plane's repulsive force. In fact, the Tokugawa shogunate was defeated by cross-era technology [although they were all within fifty years].

kind], it’s not very unfair.

But a rout is a rout, and it’s time for everyone to fly away when disaster strikes.

The old cunning guy Date Masamune was naturally the first to react and said confusingly:

"General, don't worry, I am willing to lead the Date family's samurai to charge in a peerless manner!"

Are you organizing an escape to preserve your strength? I understand this, but can you not say it so disgustingly? Shizumo Yagyu despised it in his heart, but anyway, after the fiasco, how much authority of the shogunate can be left, or does the Tokugawa shogunate exist?

It's all a problem. The old cunning Date Masamune can give a young man like Tokugawa Iemitsu some face and come up with a passable reason. He is very conscientious!

"Please, sir!"

Although Tokugawa Iemitsu knew in his heart what this old guy was going to do, but after the tragic defeat of the shogunate, a powerful name like the Date family was extremely important, so he could only appease him, so naturally he had no choice but to act with the old cunning Date Masamune.

"Sir, the shogunate's reserve team has also withdrawn! The shogunate's family is running out of money!" Yagyu Shizun reminded Tokugawa Iemitsu. After all, if the shogunate's reserve team cannot withdraw, in the context of the shogunate's disastrous defeat, I am afraid that

Something dramatic has happened.

"Yagyu, I listen to you!" Tokugawa Iemitsu felt sad and couldn't stop crying. After all, if you listen to Shizumo Yagyu and let the old, weak, sick and disabled take the lead, and the elite shogunate ashigaru does not go into battle, it will be a disastrous defeat.

, and can completely suppress the restless daimyo, how could it lead to such a dangerous situation today?

But what's the use of talking about it now? Liu Baiyu's Shirma cavalry directly crushed them. Behind them, the Don horse cavalry lined up in a row and used their horses' hooves to give the shogunate soldiers who had the chance to escape and were wailing on the ground another blow.

After finishing the attack...and then launching a second charge against the fish that slipped through the net after the Sharma cavalry rushed over, they continued to put pressure on the shogunate and did not allow the shogunate's troops to complete the battlefield assembly. Launching a counterattack was naturally a daydream.

"Yagyu, how many of our troops have come down?" Tokugawa Iemitsu, under the cover of his own guard banner, suffered nearly 100 casualties before escaping from the mixed pursuit of Shima cavalry and Donhe horse cavalry. As for what was left behind on the battlefield

Yes, those few books are almost as good as death. Liu Baiyu has an absolute disadvantage in numbers, and he is fighting on the Japanese mainland. If he doesn't massacre them, he would be crazy, so these people can only be regarded as dead. Only he can

Only the troops you control are valuable..

"There are about thirty thousand left! Fortunately, our cavalry was basically undamaged because of the last attack sequence. Wait, that direction seems to be Edo?"

"The Great Fire of Edo!"

Tokugawa Iemitsu's expression changed instantly. Looking from a distance, several plumes of thick smoke rose into the sky from Edo Castle, and then countless panicked people ran out in despair. Apparently, the remaining personnel of the shogunate were defeated and were killed.

Caused by arson.

"It's over, it's all over!" Tokugawa Iemitsu's eyes were dull. It didn't matter if Edo City was destroyed. If he really acted like a fool to Liu Baiyu, they would deal with Edo City with deadly force - that meant that Liu Baiyu and himself
To be continued...
