The Kidnapper Cavalry also collapsed in an instant, just like the Iron Buddha cavalry.
Originally, the Kidnapper Cavalry had an advantage when fighting against the infantry formations, because the infantry squares were a rectangle or a near square shape, allowing the Kidnapper Cavalry to shoot from the corners continuously, creating local situations of many against few.
But this time, the Flying Tiger Army was arranged in a long line, which meant that the Kidnapper Cavalry could only attack effectively if they entered an area almost parallel to the formation.
Once the Kidnapper Cavalry and the Flying Tiger Army became parallel, the competition was purely about the lethality of the weapons held by both sides.
The advantage of a dense formation in the era of flintlock guns lay in the fact that firing together could maximize the compensation for the low hit rate of firearms, as there would always be someone who hit the target.
