Chapter 735 The era of knights is about to pass

Dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong...

Accompanied by the sound of rhythmic drums, the Aztec Green Flag Army began to start and move forward. The square formation of 5,200 people was neatly like a person, and it was not at all confusing during the process! Just moving forward, it made people feel a strong murderous aura.

"It's exactly neat! It's even more neat than the Mamruks!"

"Just like the legendary Macedonian infantry and Roman legion!"

"Does the Chinese fight like this?"

"It should be more powerful, right? I heard that these people are just vassals of the Chinese, not really the Chinese team..."

"God, then they are too powerful!"

"Is the Chinese emperor the king of the world?"

Although the knights on the battlefield cannot form such a formation, these people still have the vision. Among them, those who are a little older have participated in the crusaders, were beaten by the Mamruks in the East, and experienced the real army. The words Napoleon commented on the Mamruks in history were also applicable in the 13th century. You only need to exchange the positions of the Mamruks and the European army. A European knight is no worse than a Mamruk cavalry, but when the Mamruks form an army, they can beat the European knights without any pressure. However, the Europeans' military power is not only knights. The prelude to the era of mercenaries is gradually unfolding, and soon, "2 Long" 2 Wind" 2 Text" English longbowmen and Swiss spearmen will become the main force on the European battlefield!

"Boom boom boom..."

Just as the men were talking, six three-bow bed crossbows controlled by Ming naval officers and soldiers began to fire thunder arrows!

Six thunder arrows drew a perfect parabola in the air and then landed directly among the men of the Granada army opposite. It seemed that two of them had pierced the horses. First, there was a sucking neigh, then a rumbling explosion, and then a chaos. It was not that the Granada warriors were afraid of death, but that the war horses under their crotch were no longer there. Neighing and screaming everywhere, making the already chaotic formation even more chaotic. Before they had time to rectify, six thunder arrows flew over, then creating greater chaos.

The Granada Samurai also moved out the same three-bow crossbow, fiddling in front of the formation in a hurry, and then began to fire the Sky Thunder Arrow, trying to suppress the six three-bow crossbows of the Aztec Green Flag Army. However, although the Granada Samurai's three-bow crossbows were quite large, it seemed to have no accuracy at all. The Sky Thunder Arrow fell around the target. Apart from creating a bunch of smoke, it had no effect.

"idiot!"

Chen Chongguan, who was riding a horse, looked at the sky thunder arrow flying over a hundred steps away from his left, and showed a sarcastic smile.

Obviously, the Tianfang Cult samurai of Granada did not really master the weapon of the three-bow bed crossbow. This weapon must have been made by Pu Shougeng, but he did not teach others to use it correctly. Now the Granada samurai is using their three-bow bed crossbow to bombard the six three-bow bed crossbows of the Aztec Green Flag Army. It was more than a thousand steps away, so how could it be so easy to hit?

The correct way is to use three-bow crossbows and cannons to bombard the enemy's infantry, rather than artillery positions. However, this experience was obtained after years of practice by the Ming army's artillery. Most of the guy Pu Shougen himself didn't know it.

"Stop moving forward!"

When he was about to reach the two armies, Chen Chongguan found that some of the cavalry of the Granada were being integrated, as if he was about to launch an attack.

"Hollow square array!"

"Murders are ready to shoot!"

Seeing that the opponent's cavalry was about to attack, Chen Chongguan was a little nervous. Although he had been in the military academy for many years and was very knowledgeable when teaching students, it was the first time he went into battle.

Fortunately, the Ming army is now taking a standardized approach. The war does not depend on one's heart. But in the practice of the rules and regulations. The infantry and cavalry are the top priority in the research of the Ming army's tacticals and the focus of infantry training. Before the Aztec Green Flag Army headed to Europe, Chen Chongguan conducted the key training of the infantry and cavalry on them. Now he just needs to issue orders according to the practice of the practice of the laws and regulations. In fact, it is similar to the endorsement! If he meets Kublai Khan's Mongolian army or can't play, then the master of the Tianfang Sect in Granada is not enough to see.

With Chen Chongguan's order issued, the original square formation changed rapidly and turned into a hollow square formation. Two spear corps formed four two-row horizontal formations to protect the musket corps, the sword and shield barracks and Chen Chongguan's command center. The spear soldiers knelt in one row, one head on the ground, and one end rushed up at a 45-degree angle; the other stood upright, laying the spear flat and placing the shoulders of the soldiers in front. The musketeers were divided into three rows, lit the fuse, loaded the ammunition, and arranged the large array facing the Granada Samurai. The first row of them placed the two-year-old rifles in their hands on the shoulders of the spearmen standing in front.

...

This array changes so quickly...

It's like a fortress made of spears...

Alfonso X was secretly surprised. He was a king but also a knight, and he also considered himself a very excellent knight. Whether it was horse racing or fencing, there were few opponents in Castilla (who dared to beat the king?). But when he saw the spear fortresses quickly put out by the Aztec Green Flag Army, he was also a little numb.

At this time, a sound of roar sounded, and it was the charge of the Tianfang Cult army. The knights of Granada began to charge! He saw that thousands of Aztec knights holding spears had formed a loose horizontal formation and began to gallop. He first took small steps and then gradually accelerated. He was already running wildly in the blink of an eye!

These damn Tianfang Cultists are really brave...

Alfonso X and more than 10,000 other knight masters on the battlefield all secretly gave a thumbs up and admired their enemies. Although he also knew that the knights of the Tianfang Cult were all great at the moment, and it was unlikely that they would really hit the enemy's spear tip. They would probably suddenly change direction when approaching the other party to intimidate the other party, but this kind of kung fu would not be able to learn without more than ten years of hard practice.

But at this moment, a "bang bang" sound suddenly came from the front. Before the knights understood what was going on, they saw the knights of Granada, who were superb equestrians, falling to the ground, and they were in a mess. People shouted and neighed, and the horses were neighing, as if the war horses were frightened. These men had not controlled the frightened war horses, and another "bang bang bang" sounded, and then more men fell from the horses, and the remaining war horses were neighing even more fiercely, and there was no way to control them! Then there was a third formation volley, a fourth formation volley, and a fifth formation...

It turned out that these Aztec musketeers used the "three-stage strike" tactic. The troops were divided into three columns, two columns were responsible for loading ammunition and medicine, and one column was responsible for firing to ensure the sustainability of firepower output.

The fifth formation gunshots, with more than a thousand projectiles range, and the thousands of Granada Knights who launched the attack could no longer hold on, so they had to leave the bodies on the ground and the wounded retreated in a panic.

This is possible!

It's unfair!

They are all noble knights!

How can I be killed like this casually?

At this moment, the Christian knights on the battlefield were all complaining for the unlucky Granada colleagues in their hearts.

Although those people are damn Tianfang scholars, they will definitely go to hell in the future because they don’t believe in God. But these people are all noble knights after all, and it’s okay if they are picked up by infantry with spears, because they are not good at learning their skills. But what’s going on now? A crackling thought, and now they are dead?

That's a knight, wearing a chain mail, how could he die like this?

Alfonso X's face turned pale. He had already known that the Aztecs who came from afar were not good people, but he did not expect that they were so evil! It was so... so terrible!

The Aztecs continued to advance without changing the formation, but maintained the form of a hollow square formation to approach the battle formation of the Granada Army.

The knights of the Tianfang Sect were in a panic. Some of the Granada noble warriors standing in front of the Aztecs actually wanted to escape regardless of their honor! Some bravely waved their spears and charged.

So brave!

Before the praise of the Christian men could be heard, the Aztec muskets had already been fired, and the brave Lord Granada had been beaten to death one after another.

There are also some masters of Granada who are smarter. They don’t silly hit the front, but ride a horse around, trying to find a breakthrough in the weak points of the hollow square array, but they can’t find a place to mouth.

"Father, the time is almost over, the Granadas are in chaos, it's time for our Knights to charge!"

Just as Alfonso X stretched his neck, opened his mouth wide, and stared at the changes on the battlefield. The hollow square formation of the Aztecs began to move forward again. The Granada men in front of them were either shot to the ground by muskets or fled in scattered ways. Perhaps there were a few who were trying their best not to rush to the front of the spear formation, but apart from dying, what's the point of such a thing?

"Father, the enemy is almost cut off!"

Alfonso suddenly woke up, and now was the best time to launch a general attack! The morale of the Granadas was already in chaos. If there was no general attack, they were likely to retreat into the city. If it was a siege, it would be nothing, but the Chinese said that there was a way to collapse the city walls of Granada, and it would only take a few days.

If this is true, you have to prepare for street fighting. Maybe in a few days, the "recovery of lost ground" will end in your own hands!

Alfonso X took a breath, drew out his sword, pointed forward suddenly, and issued the order for the general attack! The attack trumpet sounded, and countless Christian knights waved their spears and drove their war horses, rushing forward like a tide.

But Alfonso X watched this scene, his brows became tighter and tighter.
Chapter completed!
