Chapter 57: Attack in person

Looking at the war elephants doing whatever they wanted in the formation, Pei Min didn't have time to ask the intelligence officer in charge of the negligence, but thought about how to deal with the war elephants.

In memory, elephants have no natural predators, and it is nonsense to say that elephants are afraid of mice.

The elephant's sight is not destined to see the presence of a mouse, but its sensory organs are extremely strong.

When a creature like a rat approaches, it will step on it out of self-preservation instinct.

Even if you can't step on it, how dare you stay longer with the guts of a mouse?

Do you really think that all the rats in the world are Jack? If you have nothing to do, you violate the relationship between natural enemies in nature and tease cats all day long?

As for Zongyi's use of lions to scare off elephants in history, it is not because the elephants are afraid of lions, but because the creatures are aware of danger.

"But even if you're really afraid, where are you going to get a dozen or twenty fake lions at this moment?"

If you really want to talk about natural enemies, the only natural enemies of elephants are humans.

Rare and valuable ivory, which is a favorite of poachers.

Later generations of elephants were on the verge of extinction, and it was also for this reason that they were endangered.

It's just that these war elephants in front of them don't have the slightest fear of humans?

In addition to people, the only thing Pei Min can think of is fire.

Living beings have an innate fear of fire.

But ordinary small fires can't frighten war elephants, unless he burns a huge fire tower with fire oil torches, is it possible to bluff war elephants?

But if this is done, the elephant seeker only needs to control the elephant to avoid the fire tower, which is of little significance.

If the fire tower is placed directly in the left front volt, what about the left front volt?

Five elephants, no more, no less, are indeed embarrassing.

"It's really not good, shoot with a crossbow!" Feng Changqing gritted his teeth and said: "Even if it has rough skin and thick flesh, and it can't be killed by one shot, I don't believe that it has hundreds of crossbow arrows, or it won't die?" ”

It's not that Pei Min hasn't thought of this method, it's just that the vitality of the war elephant is extremely amazing.

Even if the shotgun doesn't hit the vital point, it can't die at once; The crossbow bolt will not be inferior to the gun's penetration, but it does not have the terrifying power of repeated bullet shocks.

Not to mention that it will not kill at once, it will also provoke the war elephants, and the long-range crossbow arrows will be accidentally injured, which can only be avoided at close range......

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Pei Min said resolutely: "Chang Qing, the command will be handed over to you, come with five hundred crossbowmen, and follow me to finish off these beasts." ”

Feng Changqing, Cui Xiyi, Xu Yuan, Gao Shi and others changed their faces, and said in unison: "No!" ”

Pei Min smiled and said: "There are three purposes for this trip, one, to meet these beasts; 2. Personally stabilize the left anterior volt; 3. Support the offensive of the Left Wing Army. Now that our army has gained an advantage, it is necessary to expand this advantage in order to win. My appearance can withstand the victory and not make unnecessary sacrifices. ”

As the commander of the three armed forces, Pei Min knows his mission.

Therefore, now he rarely goes to the front line to kill the enemy in person, but when he needs to come forward, he will definitely not be intimidated.

He did not give the world a chance to continue to persuade.

He is the boss in this army, and his words are equivalent to a holy decree at this moment.

Mosley Massa watched Pei Minjingqi's movement to the left from a distance, and was a little distracted for a while.

I didn't expect Pei Min to attack so quickly, a trace of fighter plane appeared in his heart, and he decisively asked his soldiers to strengthen the offensive of his left flank, as long as he could break through the left flank when the Tang army lacked a commander, he would be about to recover the disadvantage.

At that time, he was attacking to save the rout on the right flank, and he was about to turn defeat into victory.

Looking at Pei Min, who was already approaching the left front, Mosley Massa looked at it solemnly, whether it was successful or not, it depended on Pei Min's speed to solve these war elephants.

Elephant soldiers, Mosley Massa can't look down on.

The Elephant Soldier certainly has unrivaled strength, but its disadvantages are too obvious.

The elephants eat a huge amount of food, and an elephant army needs at least 30 or more war elephants to be called an army.

But the amount of food that thirty war elephants eat in a day can eat the food of a thousand people in a day.

Taking thirty elephants on an expedition is undoubtedly raising a group of ancestors.

Mosley Massa now has its own food and grass problems, where is the surplus food to raise war elephants?

Mosley Massa brought these war elephants not for battle, but for carrying weight.

The war elephants brought with them a lot of their own black oil, which resembled Greek fire, and intended to be used at critical times.

Therefore, the war elephants are very well hidden.

Because of this, the scouts of the Tang army did not find any traces of elephant soldiers in the Arab army.

Later, Mosley Massa saw that the Tang army was ambushed on the left and retreated a hundred steps to Yahan, approaching the weakness of the commander of the Chinese army, and suddenly thought that there were still five war elephants available in his army, so he sent it out as a killer weapon.

It turned out to be good!

Although the ability of the five-headed war elephant to charge into battle cannot be compared with the elephant army, it is not something that humans can resist.

Mosley Massa did not pay attention to the left wing that had just been arranged, but put his mind on Pei Min.

The next scene made him dumbfounded, and his hands and feet were cold.

Pei Min rode Simba over the crowd and came to the vicinity of the largest war elephant.

At this moment, the war elephant's hooves and abdomen were already scarred.

But it can be seen that they are all minor wounds, just with a little red.

The Tang army, which was not afraid of death, launched an attack on the war elephants, but the skin and flesh of the war elephants were so thick that they were like wearing armor.

Ordinary knives and guns are difficult to injure, and it is already very good to leave a red mark on the flesh.

Seeing that there was a thick straw rope on the right side of the war elephant, Pei Min thought about it, shouted to the soldiers to get out of the way, and drove Simba to the nearest place, slowly standing on the horse's back, jumping, holding the straw rope with both hands, like a monkey, jumping on the back of the elephant.

The back of the elephant had a wooden chariot with five soldiers, two melee soldiers with spears and short knives, two soldiers with bows and arrows, and the remaining one with the elephant.

Sensing that Pei Min was coming up, the two soldiers were the first to react, and one spear was aimed at Pei Min.

Pei Min's long sword came out of the sheath, slashed obliquely, and the spear was broken into two, and with a wave of his hand, he hit the tip of the broken spear accurately.

The tip of the spear was like a hidden weapon, and it shot at the opponent, hitting him in the chest, knocking it on the back of the elephant.

The other man simply abandoned the spear and fought in close quarters.

Pei Min was just a lightning bolt that slashed him to the moment.

The remaining two archers were even more powerless to resist.

One panicked himself fell off the back of the elephant, and the other let Pei Min kill with a sword.

Steady, Pei Min came to the soldier who was driving the elephant and said in Arabic, "Let the war elephant stop!" ”

The man who commanded the war elephant shouted in panic, and said a lot of things in his mouth.

Pei Min couldn't understand it at all, but he also heard that it was Hindi, and the pronunciation was somewhat similar to several Indian movies he watched in later generations.

Pei Min doesn't like Indians very much, but it is undeniable that those well-known movies are really good.

With one kick, he kicked it out, gritted his teeth, and raised the Qin Emperor Sword high, intending to directly pierce its brain!
