Chapter 545

~3 min read 572 words

They decimated the Xiongnu cavalry almost at the very first encounter.

This was thanks to their three-piece horse tack and the horse-chopping sabers.

Otherwise, the Great Qin cavalry could never have possessed such might.

The three-piece horse tack allows the cavalry to become one with their horses, moving as easily as an arm directing a finger!

"Leader, what kind of weapon is that!?"

The fat man was stunned.

He had only been a few beats too slow.

Otherwise, his arm would likely have been severed by that freakishly long weapon too, right?

This weapon was just too long; they couldn't reach them!

"Who am I supposed to ask?"

"I don't know either!"

The iron-nosed man also began to panic.

The earlier barrage of shooting had already cost him nearly half his men and horses!

Originally, he had thought that as long as they closed the distance, it would be the Great Qin cavalry's day of death.

Thus, despite the heavy losses, they had no choice but to continue the charge.

Once they stopped or turned to flee, being shot from behind would lead to an even more miserable death.

But after closing in, the iron-nosed man discovered that this batch of Great Qin cavalry was different from any he had encountered before.

Whether it was that crossbow from earlier or the freakishly long weapon in their hands.

It was his first time seeing them.

There was no time to think; after the two sides collided.

It took only one exchange.

The Xiongnu cavalry were knocked over by those freakishly long weapons.

This left the iron-nosed man unable to believe it.

It was too horrifying.

That freakishly long weapon was too terrifying!

Not only was it sharp, but it didn't look light either.

Anyone struck by it either lost an arm or was severely wounded.

As for minor injuries, don't even think about it; with a blade that long, if you got hit, you'd be extremely lucky not to be cut in half at the waist.

Now, looking at the people of his tribe, those who weren't crippled were severely wounded.

It was hard to find any strength left to fight.

A single exchange had left them decimated like this.

Now, there were only a few hundred Xiongnu cavalrymen left who were still intact.

The iron-nosed man even doubted if these were truly Great Qin cavalry.

Since when had the Great Qin cavalry become so powerful?

Was this still the Great Qin cavalry he knew?

The Great Qin cavalry of the past had never been this powerful.

A single one of their Xiongnu cavalrymen could easily beat three or five Great Qin cavalrymen.

If nothing else, their horsemanship alone was enough to leave Great Qin soldiers ten streets behind.

The most important skill for cavalry is horsemanship; after all, if you can't command the horse, how are you supposed to fight?

But looking at them now, the Great Qin cavalry had completely changed their appearance.

Not only had their horsemanship become superb, but their weapons had also changed.

This was precisely the reason for the iron-nosed man's fear.

He couldn't understand why this was.

After all, he had entered the Great Qin's Great Wall just a few days ago.

The Great Qin cavalry at that time were not like this.

This also drew the iron-nosed man's gaze to the Great Qin warhorses.

He had never seen Great Qin horses wearing these things before.
