Chapter 868: End
"A fire that could have buried tens of thousands of elites, but it's a pity." Seeing the sky-high fire burning on the battlefield, the judge's face turned a little paler again, and he said in a tone full of unwillingness.
"There's no way around it. If it weren't for this elephant army, we would have been able to lure the enemy deep and hide these flaming chariots in the middle of the army. At that time, the fire will form an encirclement, and the trapped Chu army will definitely be dead. But, now all has come to naught. Feng Ji sighed.
On such unobstructed flat terrain, it is too difficult to implement the strategy. This fire attack strategy is already the bottom of the box prepared by the trial, which can turn the tide of the battle at a critical time, but he doesn't want to be forced by Yuan Shu's elephant soldiers to use it in advance.
"This is also something that cannot be helped, once the elephant soldiers successfully break through the position of our army, destroy a large number of chariots and attack the core area of our army, everything will be irreparable. Moreover, the elephant soldiers charged so violently and swiftly that our chariots simply did not have enough time to encircle them. Xun Chen said.
Simply speaking, the elephant soldiers are not terrible and can be dealt with easily. But the terrifying thing is that this elephant soldier is surrounded by hundreds of thousands of elite assistance and protection. Not only did it form an effective protection, but it also used the elephant's charging like a bamboo to the extreme. Once they are killed by the Chinese army, even if the elephant soldiers are eliminated, the rest of the foot soldiers will still continue to smash the Yellow Dragon with an unrivaled force.
"This fire attack is useless, but it also curbs the elephant horse. If we want to win this battle, we must ensure that our army's Xuanwu array is not broken through and the battlefield will turn into a scorching one. I just hope there won't be any more chaos in the future. The judge said with a solemn face.
He is not afraid of the strong combat power of the Chu army, but he is afraid that there are elephant soldiers in the Chu army. For example, the Southern Barbarian soldiers led by Tai Shici were not afraid at all. What about lethality? Without the indomitable and invincible terrifying impulse of the elephant soldiers, even if he can fight again, relying on the superiority in troops, the trial can drag him to death. The test on the battlefield is not only the combat power of the soldiers, but also the physical fitness and cooperation.
......
As the fire was ignited, the chariots that followed closely behind also rushed into the fire one by one like dumplings. Although the horses were afraid of the flames and wanted to stop the charge, the huge inertia of the galloping chariots themselves, as well as the pushing of the chariots behind them, gave them no chance to turn back, and they desperately greeted the baptism of flames.
As the moths of the chariot put out the fire and refueled, the fire became more and more violent. The surrounding soldiers all felt a scorching breath, and the sparks splashed so much that people did not dare to approach, and a forbidden area instantly appeared on the crowded battlefield.
"Moo!"
One by one, the war elephants let out a long cry of great anxiety.
Although it was ignited in advance, the flames that rushed to the sky still had a certain impact on the war elephants, and the elephants panicked, and many war elephants broke away from the control of the Chu soldiers and began to run wildly.
But fortunately, the southern barbarians had already prepared in advance and stayed away from the elephant herd. And they've trained in similar disciplines, nimbly dodging around the panicked war elephants. You must know that the armor on these war elephants is specially arranged by Yuan Shu to be created according to the function of the soft hedgehog armor, if the armor is not thick enough, there will be countless holes in the body directly when it is bumped into it.
Meng Hu looked at the restless elephant herd in front of him and the sky-high fire in the distance, his face was extremely ugly. This fire will obviously not be extinguished for a short time, at least in this battle, the war elephants will not be able to get close at all, not only will they not be able to kill the enemy, but they will trample many of their own soldiers to death.
However, in this short period of time, dozens of Chu soldiers have been buried under the elephant's hooves, which is still the result of taking precautions and training in advance, otherwise the front army is afraid that there will be a big chaos.
The characteristics of the elephant soldier's double-edged sword were exposed at this moment. Not only does it hurt the enemy badly, but if you are not careful, you will also hurt yourself and inflict heavy damage on your own side.
"General, the marshal told us to withdraw our troops."
Meng Hu focused his eyes on the front, and the deputy general on the side looked at the flag waving behind him, and stepped forward to remind.
"I see." Meng Hu said with an ugly face.
Although he was extremely unwilling to be forced to ride into the battlefield with great difficulty, he was forced down after a while. But he also knew that the elephant cavalry under his command could no longer play any role, and staying on the battlefield would only add to the chaos. Therefore, after scolding the generals of the Zhao army a few times in his heart, he had to reorganize the elephant soldiers and slowly retreat to the rear under the drive of the southern barbarians.
The elephant horse, which burst out with dazzling light on the battlefield, disappeared in a flash in the pan. Like a shooting star, bright and ephemeral.
"Sure enough, the elephant soldier's weaknesses are still too numerous and fatal." Tian Feng sighed slightly and said: "Even if you are caught off guard, the trial can easily force the elephant soldiers to end, if they are prepared, I am afraid that the elephant soldiers will not be injured by the other party but only ourselves." ”
"The same cannot be said, although the elephant soldier has been on the field for a short time, it has really opened up the situation. Not only did it enable our army to advance smoothly for a long distance, but it also boosted the morale of our army, and killed and wounded many soldiers, destroyed a large number of chariots, and destroyed the opponent's position. Besides, in order to let the elephant soldiers end up, didn't the judge also sacrifice this fire attack? If it weren't for that, this fire attack might have been able to turn us over without any preparation for it. Guo Jiadao.
When he saw the fire, he really couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Judging this ruthless man, I really can't underestimate him, and all the tricks have been used. If it was really a person who was accidentally burned by this fire, I am afraid that Yuan Shu would not be able to help but kill the judge.
Listening to Guo Jia's words, Yuan Shu, who was originally unhappy, couldn't help but nod slightly: "What Feng Xiao said is very true, to this point, the combat power and the defect itself are basically proportional. The elephant soldier's combat power is so terrifying, and it is normal for the flaws to be big. In the future, it will only be used at critical times to open up the situation or turn the tide. ”
Everyone present looked at Tian Feng and Guo Jia with complicated eyes, and sighed in their hearts. This good and evil, rigid and soft, is really a perfect match, and after slapping Yuan Shu and then giving a piece of jujube, it is all a routine.
"The elephant soldiers are gone, and I'm afraid the next thing is to attack. To break the turtle shell of the trial, I'm afraid it's not that simple. Xun Yu said.
Sun Jian smiled indifferently: "In the face of absolute strength, all resistance is futile, I want to see how hard this turtle shell can be." ”
Then Sun Jian commanded the army to completely untie the shackles, except that the middle army and the rear army were still in place and attacked together with the front army. The left and right flanks of the army pounced without reservation, together with nearly 300,000 elites of the front army, completely surrounded the Zhao army, and under the leadership of the generals, launched an uninterrupted offensive attack from all directions.
