They had to dismount and, braving a hail of arrows, move the antlers or burn them.
Only then can we continue the charge.
But will the enemy just watch you remove the antlers?
Moreover, the moment you stop, your cavalry advantage is negated.
However, Li Qin doesn't have that many practical preparations right now, so he can only make do with other things for the time being.
