"Wow!" A great Mamluk nobleman tied his war horse, a famous Arab foal, his body was full of his wealth, silk robes, and all kinds of shiny jewelry. His turban was inlaid with gold coins to show his wealth. He had a short musket and two swords around his waist.

Behind him were his warriors, the Mamluk cavalry who hung their wealth on him like him. They received strict riding and fighting training since childhood and were one of the best warriors in Egypt!

The Mamluk cavalry he led was only a small part of the Egyptian army, and 16 Mamluk nobles with the same status as him came.

There should have been 24 great nobles who agreed to gather in Cairo to resist the expeditionary forces' offensive together, but the other seven great nobles hesitated to move, and it was too late to assemble.

What Sun Chuanting and others expected was that they would be attacked by the enemy on the way to Cairo. They did not expect that the great nobles of Mamluk did not want to march rashly without anyone being present, which would benefit the great nobles who did not attend, while the great nobles who participated in the battle would suffer heavy losses in the battle.

The Mamluk nobles distrust each other until the huge expeditionary army appeared outside Cairo, and they had no way to delay. The 17 Mamluk nobles could only grit their teeth and fight. As for the seven other great nobles who had not arrived, these 17 Mamluk nobles who were preparing to join the battle agreed with Egyptian Pasha that they would severely punish them for not participating in the war after the war ended.

Mamluk cavalry all over the mountains appeared in groups in front of the expeditionary army, and tens of thousands of Arab war horses were terrifying.

Egyptian Pasha, located in the middle of the Egyptian Legion, led a 5,000-man guard army. This group of people mainly came from Albanian soldiers from the Balkans in southeastern Europe. They were ancient people of the Balkans. Their principality was invaded by Turkey. Among them, adult men were conscripted and sent to military service and became soldiers who fought for the Turks.

In addition to the Pasha Guards and Mamluk Cavalry who were elite, there were about 10,000 Cairo farmers armed with sticks. They did not have a lot of wealth to show off like Mamluk Cavalry. Many of them were wearing burlap and did not even have decent weapons. These people undoubtedly acted as cannon fodder and used to cheer.

The number of Egyptian legions is as high as more than 20,000.

The Egyptian army of more than 20,000 people also arrived, and the Egyptians on the Nile River. They confronted each other with the shallow water cannon ship fleet led by Venetian veteran Capelo, just like the two sides confronting each other on land.

The arrival of the Egyptian Legion alerted all the officers and soldiers of the Expeditionary Force. Some soldiers who were sitting and resting on the ground stood up quickly and formed a wall of iron with their companions.

They held the musket tightly in their hands and looked at the enemy who was about to die with them.

If it was during the Crusade Expedition, the 16,000 coalition infantry encountered an Egyptian army of more than 20,000 people, and it was very likely that it would collapse under the attack of the Mamluk cavalry. Not to mention 16,000 infantry, even if the number of people doubled, the cavalry of more than 10,000 people would still make the infantry difficult to move forward.

But now is the era of firearms. The power of muskets is strengthened and field artillery is also used on a large scale. Can a simple cavalry still be as sharp as it was hundreds of years ago?

"Come on, let the so-called powerful Mamluk cavalry taste the power of our machine gun!" The leader of the machine gun team looked excitedly at the cavalry and infantry opposite.

"Everyone is allowed to fire the gun when he hears the order. If someone fires the gun in advance, he will be beheaded regardless of his status after the war! Convey my words!"

"Don't shoot in advance!" A row of soldiers reminded his teammates one by one.

Discipline is particularly important in the phalanx. Any soldier fires ahead of time and will drive other nervous soldiers around him, which will make the first round of shooting powerless and will give the enemy a chance to get close!

"They will most likely take the initiative to attack, and they are very stupid charge tactics." Earl of Straffor judged.

"If they really charge regardless of their sacrifice, our firepower will collapse their morale as soon as possible." Sun Chuanting used a telescope to observe the Mamluk cavalry in the distance. The gold and silver jewelry hanging on the cavalry seemed golden because of the reflection. "The Mamluk group is worthy of being the actual ruler of Egypt. They are so rich that they can be found. After the battle, a lot of property can be found from their bodies."

Li Jinde is located in the middle of the hollow square formation. He is with the commanders. When a crack appears in the square formation, they are likely to personally block the crack in the square formation or shoot the cavalry that broke into the hollow square formation.

"Maybe there are not many merchants like me who have experienced sea battles and land battles." Li Jinde laughed at himself.

He caught a glimpse of the cavalry squad of the Hospital Knights in the hollow quadron. The knights of the cavalry squad had not yet been on the horse. They stored their strength in the hollow quadron and served as reserves and assault squads.

Li Jinde saw the female knight with long golden hair, and Hannah looked particularly eye-catching among the knights. At this time, Hannah had a knight sword and a short musket around her waist. She probably would also participate in the cavalry charge that was very sacred and tragic for the Knights of the Hospital.

Didn’t that guy Castella say he wouldn’t let Hannah participate in the war outside the island of Malta? Li Jinde was confused.

The 16,000 expeditionary force and 25,000 Egyptian legion confronted each other on the alluvial plain outside Cairo for about an hour, and there was no movement on both sides.

At this time, both sides were like two boxers on the ring, testing each other, and giving the other thunder a blow when the other party became increasingly anxious.

In the end, Egypt's Pasha and Mamluk cavalry could not hold back, and the elite Mamluk cavalry took the lead in launching the charge.

The great Mamluk nobleman raised a scimitar in his hand, and the Mamluk cavalry behind him followed one after another!

These cavalry had a large number of muskets, and the sound of horse hooves covered the entire battlefield. They were raiding the left wing where the Venetians were located!

"The army follows me and defeats the pagans!" Egyptian Pasha held high his command knife, and his guards, whose Albanian soldiers were the main force, launched an attack at the same time!

These soldiers also adopted European-style linear arrays for advancement. The spear warriors were located in the middle and the two wings were musketeers.

However, this Albanian soldier unit did not know that they were attacking the front with artillery, machine guns and rifles with a range of more than them, and a modern Chinese soldiers formed by modern Chinese soldiers.
