As they galloped forward, when the soldiers of the Second Prince's vanguard and left wing saw their opponents were heavily armored cavalry, whose defenses were as tight as canned food with no apparent weaknesses, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva in fear.
They were merely ordinary light cavalry, and the warhorses they rode were common plain horses.

Moreover, the ordinary light armor they wore was incomparable to the thick heavy armor of their opponents, with a significant difference in cost as well.
Lastly, the heavy cavalry was selected from the most elite cavalry, with extremely stringent requirements for horsemanship, physical fitness, and strength... none of which was something they could compete with.
