Chapter 282 Military Souls
Chapter 292 Military Souls
PS: Another chapter, no class tomorrow, explosion.
The Camelos never knew they had so many veterans around them.
Those old men who were ordinary, as if they had done a knife conversion overnight, gave off a sharp light, and a veteran who wore his finely polished armor might be physically depressed, but everyone understood that this group of elderly men with a strong sense of war and bloody breath could easily fight any young man.
The veterans are not old, the veterans are not dead.
“Roberts, report. ”
“Zarks, report. ”
“Reyes, report. ”
“…” a team of veterans straightened up their spines as if they had been injected with stimulants.
“The Ice Bear Cavalry, a total of 600 men, to 322, please review.” Standing in front of Keiral is a skinny old man with a goat moustache and a little white on his beard. He looks very thin, almost in his fifties, except that strong and powerful, the big hand with the blue muscles appeared incredibly steady, even ordinary people could see how powerful he was holding the flag of the Knights of the Ice Bears with those big puffin hands.
Their physical abilities may be dragged down by protracted combat, but a flash of explosive power can definitely cause enormous casualties, none of them because they are veterans.
The Ice Bear Knights, affiliated with the North Grand Duke West, is a historic Order of Knights, defending against northern Gaul pirates and Scotsmen, from the North, strong in style, strong in character and distinctive in character. After a war with the Scots, the Ice Bear Knights 1,500, 600 were killed, 300 were retired, and only 600 remained in the Order as seeds to continue the Order.
And these three hundred, the most sophisticated guys in the Ice Bear Knights, were almost all badly injured, not once, but several times, including in the siege of the Scots, resistance and delays against the Gauls, the fighting and hard touching of the Gauls, who have participated in almost all the battles since Altoria took office.
Many of them have even been knights in the Battle of King Uther.
However, their physical abilities are no longer sufficient to sustain them on the battlefield as glorious knights, and even the emergence of a staple saddle cannot stop the erosion of time on them, but they are still able to carry on their residual heat as third platoon gunmen.
Knight and heavy shield soldiers demand a lot of physical strength. Not only do knights need physical strength to travel long distances, but they also need physical strength to carry nearly 60 kilograms of armor. Similarly, in the face of the first wave of shocks and arrow rain, there is no great power, but there is no resistance. Without enough strength, death is death.
The two most demanding types of power on the battlefield, the archers, and the archers, without enough strength and endurance, were unable to serve as archers. The first, fastest retreat, second highest paid position, one archer opened the bow twelve times, showing symptoms of muscle exhaustion and soreness in the arm, which is why the twelve was taken as a dozen, because then the medieval English archers and the French heavy cavalry fired almost all the time with a pot of England's long bow and didn't say a pot, but said to the back: "Bring me a dozen arrows. ”
Then the word slowly became popular.
Instead, the last person who needs strength is the gunmen.
The professional death rate of the gunmen is very high, in fact they are driven by the cavalry. If the shield cannot be stopped, almost all the gunmen die behind them.
Two platoons of shields, six or seven platoons behind are full of gunmen, then archers.
In the case of the Camelot Heavy Armor Knight, after breaking through the two layers of the shield, a maximum of about four or five meters of horsepower will slow down, and the impact will naturally decrease. These four or five meters are the distance between two platoons and three platoons of gunmen, because the guns are longer, the gunmen are even longer than the heavy shield warriors.
And at this time, the knights who rushed in either crashed a neighborhood, turned the horse's head around this area, or were stabbed to death by the legions of gunmen.
If it's the first one, then all six or seven platoons of gunmen are in bad luck, because no one can instantly turn the gun head to the left or right.
Habitual stubborn positions, they are approaching death squads on the left or right.
So the gunmen are tough, lucky only E's.
But one thing that needs to be explained is that if the fundamentals of the gunmen are strong, the cavalry can't even get close to them by a meter!
Because all spears are over a meter long!
The best illustration of this is the Macedonian Square.
There is no shield in the Macedonian Square.
They have endless rows of spears, with crossbows or bows, and they have stone throwers or sieges, or cavalry.
But the Macedonians who have always liked to attack because the cavalry came out too troublesome, and the Macedonian Square Front, Left and Right can be converted to order, not only blocked the enemy, but also blocked their own cavalry, so the cavalry is very troublesome, so the Macedonian cavalry is almost in the rear army or Left and Right arrays, which is very similar to China's crane wing arrays, so long as the Chinese army blocks the enemy, then the cavalry on both sides quickly storm the ranks of enemies as crane wings bypass the rear army to destroy all enemies.
The results are very good, but the demands on the Chinese army are very high. Obviously, Macedonia's tactical norms are not only on that super long, 2.2 meters long spear, but also on the use of the spear, which can accurately penetrate the elite of the other party's eyeballs!
Now that's what Camelot is going to do, these veterans are all retired knights, and the knights of that time were not much more demanding than they are after the current reform, and the knights of King Joseph's era demanded that the knight's six arts refer to: knight guns, infantry spears, knight swords, knight shields, short swords, and bow sixes.
After these six quizzes and horse-down quizzes, the knight teachers of the Horsemen can report to the King and tell him how many knights have appeared here.
King Joseph's workload was small because of the high demands, but the knights who came out were the elite of the elite.
In other words, these old knights are the fierce characters who get off horses with spears and on horses with guns.
By these old knights, the hard bones of the entire Camelot infantry were erected, and the souls of an army needed veterans no matter what.
Why did the Germans hit more and more powerful men and women, Tiger Panthers and Soviet tanks, but they hit Berlin? Because all the veterans who would have driven tanks in the first period were almost dead, and then the young soldiers around the age of sixteen went to the battlefield only by virtue of a single faith, as for fighting power... you really don't expect that.
