This Qing is wrong

Chapter 48 The Swadian Knight
[Congratulations to the host for successfully eliminating one hundred Swadian sergeants and obtaining 10 military training places. 】

After hearing the pleasant system prompt tone, Li Changqing let out a long sigh of relief.

He glanced at the Qing army that was forming an formation and slowly advancing towards the Yamen of Chaoyang County. He had not yet contacted the main force of the defending Qing army, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

"I don't know the real disadvantages of the system enemy army I summoned, you are not my opponent after all."

Li Changqing opened the system panel, glanced at it, and the joy at the corner of his mouth involuntarily expanded by three points.

This wave turned out to be the strongest unit in the Mount and Blade battle group - Swadian knights!
Li Changqing glanced at the Qing army brigade advancing on the wide and flat county road, and imagined in his mind the scene of them being rammed by Swadian knights.

"Yan Dingjun, Zhang Jianfei!

Take me to the second high point, I want to give Hao Zhongzhong a big gift!
Perhaps, tonight, the main force of our Qing army does not need to suffer much loss. "

…………

The news of the annihilation of all the puppets came from the rear, which eased Hao Zhongzhong's nervousness a little.

As long as there are targeted tactics, the war puppets summoned by the demon Taoist Li Changqing are still far from being invincible.

In addition to the Xiyi war puppets who were caught off guard at the beginning and killed many people in the rear of the Qing army, in the subsequent battles, the Qing army completely crushed those who were dragged down by heavy armor and moved slowly. Xiyi war puppets, use the tactics of kite flying and salvo to kill.

The whole body of the Swadian sergeant was heavily wrapped in plate armor, and it was difficult to break through the defense, but this also meant that the Swadian sergeant could not compete with the lightly armored Qing soldiers.

After the soldiers of the Qing army found that the Swadian soldiers could not catch up with them, they immediately found the essence of destroying the enemy.

In the subsequent battle, the Swadian sergeant moved his bulky body and fell down unwillingly amidst the sound of gunshots.

In the era of cold weapon warfare, a single heavy armor is not a good tactical choice, and this is not a matter of cost.

In Li Changqing's previous life, in the era of queuing up and shooting in the history of the world, soldiers from all over the continent traveled lightly, and what they pursued was mobility.

When the protection of the heavy armor is no longer effective, the mobility of the infantry becomes crucial. Otherwise, the simple kite tactics alone will allow the Musketeers to kill the heavy armored infantry and cannot find the north.

The battle to annihilate the Swadian sergeant gave Hao Zhongzhong the hope of restraining Li Changqing from summoning the war puppets.

Hao Zhongzhong keenly grasped that the biggest drawback of the war puppets summoned by the demon Taoist Li Changqing is that they have a single type of arms and are easy to restrain!
Even war puppets riding horses can restrain themselves by using pawns to ride against the phalanx.

The Qing army's vanguard was able to win the last wave, relying on this.

It's just that the price to pay is a bit high...

"If you can test out the limit of Li Changqing's summoning puppet, it will be easier to deal with this monster."

Hao Zhongcheng thought silently.

In his eyes now, the only unsolvable thing about the demonic Li Changqing is Li Changqing's summoning limit.

After all, no matter how the war puppets summoned by Li Changqing were restrained, the Qing army would suffer losses more or less. If they kept trying to consume them, no matter how perfect the restraint was, they would be 'destroyed'.

When Hao Zhongzhong was thinking about the shortcomings of Li Changqing's summoning of the war puppet, the trusted guard next to him suddenly let out exclamations.

"It's the horse-riding war puppet summoned by Crazy Li, the demon!"

Following the guidance of his trusted guards, Hao Zhongzhong fixed his eyes on the open space behind the city gate, and the Swadian knight suddenly appeared.

This group of Swadian knights, like the Swadian sergeants, are covered with spliced ​​plate armor, making them look like one!
On the head is a fully enclosed pot helmet, leaving only three holes corresponding to the eyes and nose.

With such a narrow hole, even if a sharpshooter with a hundred paces piercing the Yang is pulled over, it will be difficult to accurately shoot an arrow into the hole and kill the Swadian knight.

Not only is the armor of the Swadian knights higher than that of the Swadian heavy cavalry, but even the horses under their crotches have changed from unarmored horses to armored horses. The whole body is covered with iron plates, and you can feel it just by looking at it. The heavy rust smell hits the face!

The weapons in the hands of the Swadian knights are all heavy lances, knight swords and maces specially used to break armor.

After the Swadian knights appeared, they couldn't form an formation because of the problem of night vision. They would not have officers to reorganize. The Swadian knights quickly gave up the 'idea' of forming an formation.

The Swadian knight held up his lance, and the very scattered manipulators equipped with military horses faced the position of Li Changqing, which was automatically locked, and rushed towards the formation of nearly a thousand Qing troops led by Hao Zhongzhong.

These formed Qing troops not only stood between them and Li Changqing, the mortal enemy target, but also held bright torches. Naturally, the Swadian knights listed them as must-kill targets immediately.

"Bird shooter ready~ release!"

The Qing army's large formation, which had been prepared for a long time, immediately completed the transfer in the back row.

Hao Zhongzhong had known for a long time that Li Changqing liked to throw war puppets behind the Qing army, so he placed two rows of bird musketeers in the back row of the Qing army's formation, and then the anti-cavalry pikemen.

At this time, when encountering scattered Swadian knights rushing over, the green battalion soldiers only need to turn around to change the rear team into the front team!
Under the order of the military attache of the Qing army, two columns of blunderbusses pulled the trigger.

The Swadian knights who were not in a neat formation and were loose in formation were shot down by a round of bird guns before they had time to put down their lances!

After the shooting, the Qing army's blunderbuss team did not love to fight, and quickly retreated into the formation under the order of the military officer. The Qing army's anti-cavalry spear team in the back row made a "huha", and the front row of spearmen threw their spears to the ground. The tip of the gun is slanted upwards.

Those in the back row leveled their spears one after another and aimed them straight ahead, and an anti-riding phalanx lined with spear points took shape in an instant.

However, the momentum of the Qing army could not intimidate the fearless Swadian knights. The remaining Swadian knights held their spears straight and crashed into the hedgehog-like anti-cavalry phalanx of the Qing army one after another. The sound of spears snapping and sharp knives piercing flesh could be heard endlessly, and the screams of the Qing army resounded over the entire city of Chaoyang County.

This time, the Swadian knights' charge did not form a tight charging formation, so they did not break through the anti-cavalry phalanx of the Qing army at once, but crashed into them one by one like a refueling tactic.

Let the Qing army have sufficient time for the formation, and let the pikemen in the back row replace them to fill in the gaps in the formation.

However, the casualties of the Qing army have not decreased at all, and the Swadian knights with stronger defenses have caused far more damage to the Qing army than the Swadian heavy cavalry!
There were even Swadian knights who slammed into the anti-riding phalanx gun forest at full speed, turned their backs, and got up from the ground to continue fighting with the knight's sword!
