Chapter 486 The Decisive Battle on the Western Front

Even his gaze was firm and bright, and when he walked, every step was powerful and uniform.

The ground seemed to tremble and shake in unison with the Song army's every step.

In addition, there were musketeers, heavy cavalry, light cavalry, archers...

All Song soldiers wore armor, and the type of armor varied depending on the type of soldier.

Heavy cavalry horses are slightly shorter but have great stamina and are fully covered in heavy armor.

Light cavalry wore armor, but mostly leather, and their horses were tall and faster.

Heavy infantry, also known as the Song Dynasty infantry armor, were equipped with a full set of gear weighing about 70 jin (approximately 35 catties), a weight that was excessive for the Song army in the past.

But the Song army has already gotten used to it.

Each of them wore a bronze demon mask, so even if a thunderbolt exploded in front of them, it wouldn't hurt them.

The infantryman's horse-slaying saber was longer than that of the cavalryman, about three meters long, and extremely sharp, capable of slicing through a horse head-on!

A well-trained Song soldier can kill a charging warhorse with a single stroke.

Among the mixed army, one force stood out. They were clad in light armor, making them more agile, and each soldier carried a silver flintlock musket.

The gun barrel is about three feet long, with a two-foot-long blade at the very front.

Behind the main army, the best protected were thirty iron cannons, which moved with the army, each exuding an aura of majesty.

The Song army advanced to a point about three li from Lifeng City, and then stopped.

Because outside Fengcheng, there were also Jin troops lined up.

P.S.: Haha, it really takes a boost of energy! I worked overtime all day and started writing as soon as I got home tonight.

I had planned to write an update last night, but I didn't realize I was too tired and fell asleep as soon as I lay down on the bed.

I feel so sorry for you all!
