Chapter 57
The green battalion of horses brandishing sabers let out an invigorating roar, formed a simple cavalry charge, and stepped towards the direction of the loose explorer.

These green battalion cavalry are at the bottom of the Qing cavalry battle sequence, and they don't even know how to charge with their guns!
In the game, it is a standard low-level saber and light cavalry, the kind without armor...

In fact, this kind of cavalry without armor but equipped with sabers was the norm for the green cavalry under the Qing court.

First of all, armor is really expensive!

Secondly, the training cost of Lancers is really high!

The cost of training a cavalry who can charge with a gun is no less than training a small cavalry and archer.

Because cavalry charging with guns and wielding sabers riding and slashing are completely two concepts.

Reality is not a game, and the cavalry charging with their guns must delicately grasp the time before and after the gun tip touches the enemy.

Let go the moment the spear hits the enemy's body. If you let go too early, you won't be able to stab anyone, and you will do useless work. If you let go too late, you may die together with the enemy...

The best result was that the arm was broken and paralyzed on the spot!

Under the relative force of the horse's speed, the force of the lance hitting the obstacle is very strong, and the reaction force alone is enough to overturn the cavalry who does not let go.

On the other hand, the saber is easy to master, and you don't even need to use much force to cut sideways towards the target. Relying on the inertial power driven by the horse's speed, it is enough to cut a big hole in the target, and even split the whole person in two!
The reaction force brought to the operator by the saber and the lance is completely different, and the high-speed moving horse will not cause damage to the cavalry using the saber when they chop people.

Of course, the Lancers here refer to the kind of Lancers who use conventional lances, and the kind of cavalry who use horses is another matter.

Because the material of the horse is different, the gun shaft will not break immediately when it hits the target, and it is more flexible and can be used repeatedly on the horse.

However, Ma Chan has two fatal flaws compared to conventional lances.

The first is the issue of cost. In ancient China, only people at the general level were eligible to use horse lances. One can imagine how expensive horse lances are!
The second is the use of skills.

The horse lance is not easy to break. Not only did it not reduce the cavalry's skill in using the lance, but it greatly increased the difficulty of using it.

If the horse lance is not used well, maybe the horse lance will not be broken in the impact, but the user's arm will definitely be broken, and the injury caused is no less than that of a lance!

When cavalrymen use cavalry spears, they only need to seize the opportunity to release the cavalry spears, but when using horse spears, they need to use skill to remove the huge reaction force transmitted by horse spears. Even laymen know the difficulty of the two. how big!
Therefore, Ma Chan will never become a conventional arm, and the frequency of appearance in world history is also very small.

Even if you go bankrupt and build a large number of horses, so what if no one will use them?
It is better to build a regular lance that is easier to use and less expensive.

As a matter of course, the cavalry of the Qing army brought by Hao Zhongzhong, including scouts and scouts, had very few people who could use long spears, and almost all of them were military officers of the Qing army on horses.

The Green Battalion soldiers in this era want to be promoted to military officers, relying on real military achievements. The Eight Banners of the Qing Army have only just begun to corrupt, and the Green Battalion, which has always been on the front line, still maintains the spirit of the war.

Therefore, the vast majority of military officers in the green battalion were promoted by relying on military merits, and their combat skills are naturally not weak.

It's a pity that all the pawns of the Green Camp cavalry rushed into the battle, and only one leading cavalry commander held a lance in his hand.

The cavalry team of the Qing army rushed out of the gate of the county seat of Chaoyang County, feeling very disturbed, because the shouts of killing and gunshots outside the city merged together, and the screams of the Qing soldiers became more and more intensive.

It was obvious that the Qing army's offensive had suffered setbacks. How could the Green Camp cavalry, with only a few hundred people, not be nervous?
However, Hao Zhongzhong's military order is hard to disobey, so everyone can only bite the bullet and follow it.

When the cavalry of the Qing army rushed out of Chaoyang County and saw clearly the target they were going to deal with, they couldn't help but feel happy.

See what those war puppets are doing?
Not even a basic small phalanx!
Moreover, there were not many people, and they were divided into many small groups. Even the puppets of the same small group stood very loosely with each other. Isn't this kind of enemy just waiting to be hacked when facing the cavalry charge?
The most important thing is that the cavalry of the Qing army did not see the spears in the hands of the war puppets.

They knew very well about the self-generating firecracker. Even if the reloading speed was three times that of the birdgun, but facing the cavalry charging at full speed, they only had a chance to fire one shot.

Therefore, when the cavalry of the Qing army launched a charge, all of them rushed forward screaming, and there was no need for a second mobilization, as if what was in front of them was not a fearless war puppet, but a dazzling military exploit.

Although after all the war puppets were killed, they would disappear after a period of time and they would not even receive their heads, but as a qualified general, Hao Zhongzhong obviously would not count military merits just because the soldiers under his command could not cut their heads.

So who would work hard?
The big deal is to count the military merit of killing the enemy into the "collective merit" and calculate it according to the collective battle results.

Nearly one-third of the explorers turned their guns, which did not scare the Qing cavalry at all. They had long been used to seeing firearms on the battlefield.

In the army of the small imperial court of the Southern Ming Dynasty, the firearm equipment rate was higher than that of the Qing army!

After all, on the land occupied by Nanming, there are many high-quality iron-making workshops, and there is no shortage of gun barrels, so the number of firearms will naturally not be low.

Moreover, this land in the south of the sky is close to Macau, where the Portuguese lived. People in this area are well aware of the power of firearms and are accustomed to using firearms.

Even the landlords and gentry in the township are generally equipped with firearms for self-defense.

If the Qing army was afraid of musket shooting, it would be impossible to defeat the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

"Suppress the demon way, the Qing Dynasty will win!"

The military attache of the Qing army cavalry headed, waving a spear with a green flag, shouted loudly as he charged.

After shouting, the speed of the horse has increased to the limit.

At this moment, the explorers on the opposite side crackled and fired the first round, which was also the only round with a slightly irregular row of guns.

With an excited face, the leading military officer of the Qing army cavalry, who was about to cut these scattered infantry into pieces, trembled, his crotch loosened, and he threw himself forward with his horse and man, rolling several times before stopping his advance... …

This military officer of the cavalry of the Qing army was too ostentatious, and as a result, many explorers were targeted, and both men and horses were smashed into sieves on the spot...

However, facing the high-speed moving Qing cavalry, even explorers with superb marksmanship cannot guarantee a hit rate of more than [-]%.
