In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos.
Liu Wei transmigrated to become a prince of the Eastern Han, initially framed by Empress Dowager He and granted the barren and dangero...
However, after several battles, many soldiers reported that the spear was not very effective.
It turns out that when cavalrymen charge, the momentum from their horses causes their lances to pierce through the enemy's armor and into their bodies.
It is extremely lethal, but it also has a drawback: it is inserted too deeply and cannot be pulled out!
This resulted in many knight commanders' weapons often being disposable.
After hitting the target with a single blow, he had no choice but to discard his spear and then use a short weapon to kill the enemy.
If the release is even slightly slow, it will immediately affect the speed of the entire cavalry force, and the enemy will immediately seize the opportunity to attack.
These are all bloody lessons.
After the soldiers relayed the feedback to Liu Wei, Liu Wei had Xue Rengui try it himself on horseback, and sure enough, the problem was there.
So, with a stroke of his pen, he spent 80,000 gold coins to equip all 8,000 cavalry with crescent halberds!
No wonder Xue Rengui liked to use the halberd.
The two crescent-shaped pieces at the bottom of this halberd can be used to hold it in place, preventing the spear tip in the middle from going too deep.
In this way, during combat, the long weapon will not be lost due to penetrating too deeply into the enemy's body.
The crescent halberd is missing half a crescent compared to the halberd.
But it is sufficient for mounted combat by cavalry!
Hurry!
Rumble!
Xue Rengui's 10,000 cavalry and Tuoba Gao's 10,000 cavalry in the center were getting closer and closer.
Three hundred steps!
Two hundred steps!
One hundred steps!
After charging and running, the 10,000 Han cavalrymen had become a giant arrowhead.
Xue Rengui was like the sharpest, coldest point on that arrowhead, the very tip of the diamond drill!
boom!
Men and horses were thrown into chaos, and screams filled the air!
The two groups of cavalry clashed violently.
