In fact, for cavalry, these barbed wires are a kind of deadly existence. The experience of later generations has shown that rolls of barbed wire, regularly placed on the battlefield, can effectively block the advance of cavalry troops. If the horse accidentally hits the top of the barbed wire, it will definitely fall down immediately. With a large number of barbs, barbs, thistles, thorns, rusty arrows and other barbed wire, it will hook the war horse to the ground.

Barbed wire also had a huge effect, which was to dispel the habit of cavalry advancing at high speed. No matter how fast the horses were, it was impossible to break through the rolls of barbed wire. The barbed wire fences that are intertwined with each other obviously have the effect of pulling out thousands of pounds in twos. Once the war horse falls to the ground, it must be covered in bruises, and it is unbearable to see.

As for the knights on horseback, it is quite possible that they will be overturned alive, as if defeated, and fall in front of the positions of the white-clothed army. When the time comes, the soldiers of the white-clothed army can consider giving each other a shot to end their suffering. If you want to save bullets, you can give them a bayonet. Of course, it's okay to turn a blind eye. It is estimated that the person who was thrown over like this stood up in a daze, and he had no combat effectiveness.

The rolls of barbed wire looked absolutely inconspicuous on the outside, so that the Mamluk cavalry in the storm did not perceive the danger at all. They didn't pay attention to the barbed wire at all. Maybe he noticed it, and he didn't think it was a big deal, and the war horse crashed away at once. They were still speeding forward at high speed, their eyes shining with victory. As if, a respectable position, a wealth of wealth, has beckoned to them.

In the rear of the Mamluk cavalry, Biden and his staff were confident of victory. Judging from the appearance, the position of the white-clothed army is really relatively simple. In front of the elite Mamluk cavalry, there was no vulnerability at all. With the speed of the Mamluk cavalry, it only took a short time to engage the white-clothed army. Once the two sides are in close combat, with the sharpness of the Damascus knife, they will definitely be able to break the white-clothed army into pieces.

"White-clothed army, you are doomed!"

"Yaergancheng will definitely become the bridgehead of the empire in the east!"

Seeing that victory was in sight, Biden couldn't help but be complacent. No matter what the battle situation of the Sultan's own soldiers is, he will definitely win this first credit.

"Brothers!"

"The opportunity for meritorious service is here again!"

"No one is allowed to disgrace the mastiffs! Otherwise, you will be automatically discharged! ”

Gao Jie shouted calmly, and inadvertently, he took out the killer weapon of automatic discharge.

As the leader of the Mastiff Cavalry Army, Gao Jie has always given outsiders the impression that he is ruthless and murderous, and there are almost no surnames. Others can be killed or not, and generally not killed. He can be killed or not, and he will be killed. So much so that within the white-clothed army, some people have a lot of complaints about him. In fact, the warriors within the Mastiff Cavalry Army liked him very much. Nothing else, just enough to taste. For those who ride on the wall, kill them with one knife and wipe them out.

With an army of 8,000 mastiff cavalry, Gao Jie was not worried about defeat in the face of Ottoman cavalry of only about 10,000 people. The only thing he needs to think about is whether he can make a little less sacrifice. Of course, there is also the more important point of inflicting as many casualties as possible on the enemy. The destruction of the enemy's living force is always the first element.

"Warriors, the true God is watching you!"

"The rich lands of the East are waiting for you to conquer!"

Seeing that the cavalry was about to rush to the front of the position of the white-clothed army, Biden immediately shouted.

From his point of view, the Mamluk cavalry could enter the position of the white-clothed army with just one charge. Despite the muskets of the white-clad army, they were constantly firing. Despite the Mamluk cavalry, it was constantly falling. But, after all, they are successfully approaching.

With the combat effectiveness of the Mamluk cavalry, as long as they entered the position of the white-clothed army, victory would definitely belong to them. Judging from the intelligence collected by the Empire, it seems that the White Soldiers have never been good at hand-to-hand combat.

"Whoa!"

"Whoa!"

"Gray Yuyu!"

"Gray Yuyu!"

Suddenly, there was a scrambled sound ahead.

The sound of cavalry falling, the neighing of war horses, intermingled with each other.

But it was the Mamluk cavalry who rushed to the front accidentally hit the top of the barbed wire, dragging the barbed wire to make a cold and piercing sound. Under the drag of the barbed wire, those high-speed galloping horses, no matter how fast they were, no matter how huge their bodies were, had to fall down softly. Blood splattered out, rendering a large rain of blood.

The human body on horseback, under the huge impact of the habitual surname, was almost directly overturned into the position of the white-clothed army. They were smashed to pieces, and before they could stand up, they were stabbed to death by sharp bayonets. Some people fell directly into the trench dug in advance by the white-clothed army, and were immediately stabbed to death by the sharp wooden stakes in the trench. It is estimated that these poor Mamluk cavalrymen, until they died, did not figure out how they died.

A large number of fallen horses suddenly became obstacles, blocking the advance of other Mamluk cavalry. In the case of high-speed galloping, it is absolutely impossible to stop the war horse at once. There was no way, all the Mamluk cavalry had to go forward and follow. They have no choice but to put everything out of the box and move in a straight line.

As a result, there were more Mamluk cavalry, unwilling, but had to fall near the barbed wire. It was as if the waves were crashing against the reef on the shore and were forced to stop. No matter how unwilling the waves were, no matter how continuous, they could never break through the reef.

"What's going on?"

Biden asked his staff a little blankly.

There is no one to answer. Because, they don't know what's going on either.

All the Mamluk cavalry, it seems, were frozen by something in an instant.

It took a while for Biden to figure out the situation. There were centurions from the front, desperate to run back and report to him the latest situation. He suddenly lost his mind and roared in exasperation: "What? Barbed wire? Our warriors can't even rush through the barbed wire? What the hell do you eat? ”

He just couldn't accept that reality. Isn't it just some barbed wire? How can it not be rushed? In his subconscious, as long as the war horse jumped easily, he could jump over the barbed wire. Even if you don't jump, you can hit the barbed wire directly! How could such a powerful impact be blocked by some fragile barbed wire?

The Mamluk cavalry officer who came back to report the news was also helpless. He couldn't understand why his companions couldn't break through the barbed wire. But that's exactly what happened. Whether they figure it out or not, they have to pay attention to the barbed wire. If these barbed wire fences could not be cleared, it would have been impossible for them to get close to the whites.

You must know that the Mamluk cavalry under his command is the most elite existence. They had never encountered such a situation in previous battles. For them, the only defense that could not be opened was the strong and towering walls. However, outside the position of the white-clothed army, there is no strong towering city wall at all!

If you can't even get close to the positions of the white-clothed army, it's a big problem. The longer they were exposed to the muskets of the whites, the greater the casualties they would surely encounter. The power of the muskets of the white-clothed army, they have tasted it deeply. In such a short period of time, the casualties of his unit were already very large.

"Be sure to rush over! Must rush over! ”

At the critical moment, Biden also let it all out and shouted loudly.

He was ready to take the casualties. It is absolutely impossible to destroy the white-clothed army without paying a single casualty. At the same time, at this critical juncture, it is impossible for him to order the withdrawal of troops. As soon as the order to withdraw troops is given, it will be all chaos. It is very difficult for the cavalry, which has been fully deployed and entered a state of attack, to retreat.

Under his strict orders, the Mamluk cavalry continued to charge forward. They rushed to the bloody barbed wire without fear of death, hoping to completely crush the barbed wire with their own bodies and the bodies of war horses. Some of the Mamluk cavalry, with their strong arms, also tried to cut the barbed wire with sharp Damascus knives.

"Klut, you go up too!"

"Your mission is to tear the barbed wire open!"

Suddenly, Biden clenched his fists fiercely and gave the order again.

Klut led the ordinary Ottoman cavalry, which was inferior to the Mamluk cavalry in terms of combat effectiveness. Therefore, in this order, Biden already has some meaning of using Klut as cannon fodder. However, they were armed with muskets and could shoot at the whites near the barbed wire, causing a certain amount of casualties to the whites.

Biden's original intention was to hope that the general imperial cavalry would rush forward and replace the elite Mamluk cavalry in order to reduce the losses of the Mamluk cavalry as much as possible. After all, every Mamluk cavalry is the elite of the empire. It is indeed a pity to be killed by the white-clothed army in vain. They shouldn't have lost it for nothing.

The ideal state, of course, is that the general cavalry will open the barbed wire fence, and the Mamluk cavalry will continue to rush forward, expand the breakthrough, and expand the results of the battle. As long as there is no barrier of barbed wire, there is no suspense at all that the Mamluk cavalry will win. Five thousand Mamluk cavalry was enough to chop tens of thousands of enemies to pieces. As long as the final victory can be achieved, Biden does not mind, and all the cavalry under Krut will be killed.

Of course, Kluett doesn't think so. He believes that being able to appear on the battlefield is actually a good opportunity for meritorious service. If the Mamluk cavalry could not open the gap, but the cavalry under his command could open the gap, his Klut name would inevitably become famous all over the world at once, and fame and fortune would be inevitable. Therefore, Klute did not feel the slightest inappropriateness about becoming "cannon fodder". He happily carried out the order.
