Reinventing the Cavalry (Part2)

"My lord, this new bow you invented has proved to be an amazing weapon," As Alexander was about to show off the weapon, Menes could not help but interject as he continued, "We had our soldiers test it out a few days ago, and the results were fantastic! Just a scant number of soldiers protected by ditches and stakes were able to face off against a much larger number."

"Yes, especially against cavalry," Melodias added to his colleague's claim, detailing what their mock battles produced.

"We saw that if these new bowmen were behind fortification or protected in some other way where they could shoot freely without fear of getting run over, then they were able to deal large casualties to cavalries, and even stop them."

And Melodias then finished by claiming, "In fact, if we used these new bowmen correctly, we might not even need the armored cavalry."
