Chapter 651 0646 [Compound array of spears, swords and bows](2/2)
Their melee weapons were the two-handed broadswords widely equipped in the Liao and Song Dynasties.
The length of the sword is only 70 to 80 centimeters, but the widest point is 10 centimeters. The head of the sword is not sharp, but is in the shape of a sword, so it is not used for thrusting, but for chopping and breaking armor.
This is the standard sword used in the Five Dynasties. Because there was too much armor on the battlefield, stabbing was changed to chopping.
The strong archers wielded broadswords with both hands, passed through the gap left by the friendly spearmen, and slashed fiercely with their armors. These archers not only carried swords for close combat, but also wore strong armor.
The armor of the Jin Kingdom's hard army weighs about thirty or forty kilograms.

It's like being hit with a hammer, the whole arm feels numb and painful.
The composite formation of spearmen and giant swordsmen, as well as the wave-like attack method, caught the Jin Kingdom's hard army by surprise as soon as it appeared.
Jin Bing was stunned. He had never encountered such a situation before and had no idea how to deal with it.

Looking at the hard troops hurriedly escaping back down the mountain, Wanyan Loushi's expression became more solemn, because the cavalry's attack also did not go smoothly.
