The knights of the Black Flag Army were divided into two teams, each with more than 2,000 people.
One of them was the sudden attacker of Caesar the Great.
More than two thousand people in this team suddenly made a move at the same time when more than ten knights in the first row fell into the horse pit.
Right on this intense battlefield, made the same move.
Their movements were uniform and synchronized, with over 2,000 people seeming like an endless continuation of one person, a delightful sight to behold.
They simultaneously reined in their horses, and at the same time the horses lifted their front hooves high and stood up on their hind legs.
It's nothing special if it's just one person.
If it were just a heavily armored knight, a knight covered in iron armor making this move would be quite an extraordinary thing.
Being able to perform such actions under the weight of such a heavy burden is enough to prove the high quality of this horse and rider, rarely seen in the world. More importantly, the coordination between humans and animals has reached an unimaginable level of proficiency.
But if it were two thousand men, two thousand horses, and two thousand heavily armored knights who all made this move at the same time...
Caesar's smile suddenly froze on his face...
Duke Abel's slightly open mouth grew wider and wider...
Bankcroft's big eyes are as good as bronze bells...
The second prince Absolem's elegant face lost its composure...
Artuso was calm and firm, but in those determined eyes, there was an unbelievable confusion...
Behind the crowd of high-ranking officials, an old man who had already entered his sixties suddenly opened his eyes and burst out with a chilling light that made people's hearts palpitate...
Wolong City, on top of the city wall, the direction of the stretched out big hand was frozen in mid-air and couldn't be withdrawn for a long time.
Cavalry charges in waves, one after another, like the endless Yangtze River.
No matter what happens ahead, they will charge forward without hesitation.
In a large-scale battle with thousands of troops and horses, once the cavalry launches a charge, there is no turning back.
It's not that I don't want to turn back, but like an arrow that has left the bowstring, it's easy to shoot but hard to retrieve.
The knights behind couldn't see what was happening in front of them at all, and even if they wanted to stop, it was absolutely impossible.
For behind them, there were also endless cavalry troops.
If they stop abruptly, the consequences that await them will undoubtedly be being ruthlessly trampled by their own friendly forces behind.
The Battle of Taiyuan, Hami was still not blowing the trumpet for the whole army to retreat after seeing Zhuge's divine crossbow, not that he didn't want to, but because he didn't dare.
At this time, when the vanguard of the Black Flag Army fell into the trap, everyone thought that in this charge, the more than 2,000 people would likely lose half of their men.
But the final fact is absolutely beyond anyone's expectation.
Even the directional horn did not think that such a change would occur.
Having more than 2,000 heavily armored knights complete such a high-difficulty maneuver at the same time has already surpassed the realm of "as one wishes".
This is simply a myth, an unbelievable legend.
The two sides simultaneously began to converge on the west side at this time and had a certain pause and delay.
Because their commander also saw this scene in front of him at the same time.
They were completely stunned by this scene and had already thrown away the tactics they had arranged beforehand.
The horseshoes trampled heavily, and this team of over 2,000 people seemed to know that the person in front was not easy to provoke. The rear team changed to the front team, and with a loud shout, they galloped away before the reinforcements on both sides had time to gather.
They charged towards the group of light cavalry who were coming from behind.
Right in the middle of it all, they did something that left everyone utterly astonished once again.
They jointly pulled out a spear from the horse's saddle bag.
Under the gaze of tens of thousands of eyes, they stood up and threw it out.
These javelins maintain their synchronization and speed even in mid-air.
"Whoosh..."
This kind of arrow is several times more vicious than the previous one, although it can't be compared with incendiary bombs, but the shock it brings to people is not half less.
A mournful cry came from ahead.
A small gap suddenly appeared in the cavalry formation of Caesar's men.
The Iron Cavalry of the Black Flag Army forced its way through the light cavalry.

Bancroft...
"In."
"Are you sure? Is it this unit?"
Although it was not explicitly stated, all the high-ranking generals present understood what the Emperor meant by this sentence.
He was inquiring whether the complete defeat of the Fourth Legion's infantry battalion was a manifestation of this divine unit.
He hesitated for a moment, this was Bancroft's first time showing hesitation and wavering in front of the supreme.
"I don't know..." replied Bancroft honestly.
That night, the Black Flag Army and today's Iron Cavalry were actually the same group of people, but... their performance was vastly different.
Bancroft was also a seasoned veteran who had seen his share of battles and although he suffered a crushing defeat, he lived to fight another day.
However, he discovered a fatal weakness of the Black Flag Army.
That is the extreme lack of flexibility and adaptability.
If we're talking about being unreasonable and recklessly charging forward, the Black Flag Army is indeed the best in the world. Even the renowned Caesar Heavy Cavalry of the Western Regions would have to yield three points to them.
In any case, whether it was the quality of the horses, the weight of the weapons or the personal qualities of the soldiers, the Black Flag Army had a clear advantage.
But on the battlefield, the strongest impact is not the only factor in winning.
That night, although the Fourth Legion suffered its greatest defeat in history, it made him see that the Black Flag Army was not invincible.
Against some fools who only know how to charge forward blindly, a commander who slightly understands the way of flexibility will have thousands of ways to open the gates of hell for them.
But he never thought that the Black Flag Army would change, just like a rebirth, and become completely new.
Although their equipment remains unchanged, although their means of attack are also the same.
But they became agile, just like an elephant with cheetah-like agility, rendering their meticulous preparations utterly useless.
※※※※
Hahaha...
Zhang Kuang's excited laughter burst forth from Jiang Kongming's mouth as he warmly wrapped his arms around Fang Xing's shoulders, this being the first time he had been so close to the master of the Fang family: "How is our Black Flag Army? Is it the best in the world?"
To him, this sentence was like Lao Tzu's "I am the number one in the world" with a domineering tone, and Wei Xiang could only bitterly smile and nod.
Nowadays, in the face of facts, he had to admit that the Black Flag Army was indeed the number one under heaven.
No, it's not the number one in the world today, but the number one in the world since ancient times.
"Fang Tongling, aren't you going to get ready?"
"What?" asked the directionless bird in confusion.
"It's so lively down there, if we don't go and join in, wouldn't it be a pity? Why not have General Fang lead 5,000 troops out of the city for a tour?" Jiang Gongming said with a smile.
Fang Xiangming immediately understood his meaning and nodded heavily. With a smile, he said: "As you wish, I dare not invite you."
He turned around and went down the city building, with a big wave of his hand, five thousand light cavalry immediately poured out in a stream, stepping on the rapid pace towards the Caesar's military camp.
"Pass the order, open the city gate wide, clear the road, and prepare for the master's return."
After seeing the direction of the departing bird, Jiang Gongming's expression turned cold and stern, and he suddenly shouted loudly.
Direction Ming personally led the 5,000 elite troops to make a big circle around them. They avoided the heavily armed infantry regiments that were waiting in ambush and dodged the slow heavy cavalry regiments.
Five thousand people, although it is also five thousand people.
But Duan Xiangqian did not dare to engage in a melee with any team of more than three thousand people at this time.
Although these five thousand were the real elite he had carefully selected from the Red Ocean, to think of attacking the tens of thousands of strong Caesar's army with this number of people was simply - seeking death.
They, after all, were not the Black Flag Army.
Jiang Gongming knew this principle well, so he only let him lead 5,000 soldiers out of the city.
Neither he nor Jiang Gongming thought that the 5,000-strong Black Flag Army would cause much harm to the Jie people.
So their goal was not to break through the enemy's position, but to create trouble for the Caesarians, tie up their troops and give Hei Feng's Black Flag Army an opportunity to return to the city.
The Red Ocean is after all the greatest army of Da Han, although it can't be compared to the Black Flag Army, but it's already not inferior to any other troops.
On their chest, a specially-made weapon was hung, which was the small-sized Zhuge's divine crossbow that had repeatedly repelled the Xiongnu people's Zong Shi Li Zhi in the Battle of Taiyuan.
Since Zhuge God Crossbow appeared in Taiyuan, Jiang Gongming no longer hid it like a treasure.
Of course, not everyone is qualified to use this advanced weapon. The five thousand iron knights of the direction are the first and only batch of troops equipped with this terrible weapon.
They played an extraordinary role at this time.
For any powerful and entangling troops, the direction of the horn will take the principle of avoiding if possible. If it is really unavoidable, then with a single order, arrows will fall like rain.
When Caesar's troops were in such disarray, Ching Shih once again led the Red Flag Fleet to sail away.
The name of Zhuge's divine crossbow is not unfamiliar to the people of Jie, and news of the battle in Taiyuan has already reached here. If there are still people who are ignorant of the special weapon that showed great power in that battle, then they do not deserve to be a general.
It is only when they really encounter such a divine weapon that they deeply feel the helplessness and sadness of the Xiongnu people in the past.
