Chapter 422: The Elephant Army vs. the Camel Cannon (Part I) One Change

"Brother Lin, you can't open the city, you should open the cannon!" Xiao Ying saw that these war elephants were too powerful, as if they were mutated aliens, invincible, invincible, the Ming army was defeated like a mountain, and in the blink of an eye, she was near the moat, and when she heard Liu Fangliang and others shouting to open the city, she was so shocked that her face was pale.

But looking at Lin Yi again, he still had that calm expression, his face was resolute, but his mouth was slightly upturned, and he looked like he was in his chest, which was more stable than Mount Tai, "Ying'er, why do you say this?" ”

"Brother Lin, isn't this an obvious thing? At this time, although Liu Fangliang and they can enter the city, these elephants will also rush in, and there are thousands of horses and thousands of troops behind the elephants, and they will also rush into the city. The city is covered with red-clothed cannons, aiming at these elephants and bombarding them, which can save Liu Fangliang. Xiao Ying said eagerly, and there were bursts of words.

Lin Yi shook his head when he heard this, "At this time, we must open the city, not artillery, because it is not yet time, rest assured, the thief army will not be able to enter the city." Right? Lin Yi said and looked at Zhezhe.

Every time he was about to fight, Lin Yi had to communicate with several beauties around him, and today was no exception.

Zhezhe seemed to understand what Lin Yi meant, and said with a smile: "If you want to open the cannon, then Brother Lin doesn't need to spread the camel cannon in the city, and if you want to open the cannon, the red-clothed cannon has such a long range, you don't have to wait for these war elephants to get so close." At this time, the cannon is fired, and the rat is bogeyed. But if you don't open the city now, wouldn't it be death for Liu Fangliang and others? ”

Lin Yi smiled and nodded to her, "Those who know me, Zhezheye." ”

Su Moer, who was standing behind Lin Yi, listened quietly, looking at the menacing war elephants under the city and the enemy troops rushing over behind the elephants, as if they were nothing, and his expression was calm.

Liu Fangliang and Yuan Zongdi were still on the side of the moat with people, in fact, they deliberately pretended to show the elephant army behind, at this time the squeaky suspension bridge was lowered, the city gate was wide open, Liu Fangliang and Yuan Di scrambled to get on the bridge, and then fled into the city in a hurry, but because the bridge was narrow and there were many people, there were many people who were squeezed out of the river, fluttering and swimming to the other side, and then climbed up and ran to the city without a life. That embarrassment is indescribable.

At this time, Sun Kewang, who was behind, could see clearly on the horse behind, and shouted on the horse while rushing: "Quick, take the city gate!" Rush in, take the city in one fell swoop, reward those who kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and those who retreat will be killed!

In Sun Kewang's view, the city head will soon be fired with ten thousand cannons, and they must race against time, if they can capture the city gate in the sound of artillery fire, the great work will be done.

However, at this time, there is no need for Sun Kewang to shout, and the elephant army will not stop, because Wen Ke is a pioneer and a good person to show off, and he can't wait for this one. Today, he finally let his elephant army show his might, he sat on the war elephant and destroyed the elephant army, killed the Ming army to the ground, and fled in all directions, it was simply a pleasure.

During this period, Wen Ke's mouth had already been skimmed to 80,000, and secretly said, Sun Kewang, Mu Tianbo, a pair of rice buckets, use me in the first battle, use me to win, and I want to abolish this matter, as a result, a few generals died, tens of thousands of horses were killed and wounded, and then I let my elephant army go out, and those people were not killed or injured in vain, why is this? Idiot!

Look at how mighty and invincible our war elephants are, as long as we enter the city today, this city is bound to win!

Wen Ke thought like this, destroying the war elephants, rampage forward, chasing and destroying the remnants of the Ming army, the more embarrassed the Ming army ran, the more comfortable he was, and the happier the smile on his face, so he just didn't like it, how could he be willing to withdraw the troops at this time?

"Rush! Climb the drawbridge and storm the city! As soon as he saw that the Ming army was crowding into the city, the drawbridge could not be pulled up, and the city gate could not be closed, because there were fleeing Ming troops everywhere, Wink was even more happy, and commanded the war elephants to rush onto the drawbridge.

As long as his war elephant can rush in, it will save the siege, the elephant army continues to open the way in front, and Sun Kewang leads the men and horses to fight in the back, one walk and one pass, no matter how brave and good the Ming army is, no matter how Wen Taowu strategy he is Lin Yi, it will not help.

The several war elephants that rushed in front stepped on the drawbridge under the leadership of the elephants, shaking their huge bodies.

Each of these behemoths was six or seven tons, and there were people sitting on them, plus the weight of elephant saddles, armor, spears, etc., and the weight of several such war elephants rushing up at the same time can be imagined.

The suspension bridge across the moat is made of wood and iron with rivets, which is quite strong and can pass thousands of troops and horses in normal times, but it is passed in a long line, and such a suspension bridge of course has load-bearing restrictions, and it cannot withstand the trampling and charging of these behemoths at all.

Therefore, these war elephants got on the suspension bridge, and as soon as the front rushed to the middle of the bridge, and as soon as they stepped behind, they heard a click of the suspension bridge and broke at the waist, and several war elephants on the bridge plopped and fell into the moat.

It's just that these war elephants are not as big as cattle and sheep, but each war elephant is as high as a story, and when one of them falls, it is like falling down a high wall and falling into a moat, and the movement is too big, similar to dropping a depth charge.

And not one, but several war elephants fell into it one after another, and this time the deep moat was filled, and the water splashed several feet high, and the water splashed out of the water burst out, and these behemoths fell easily, and if they wanted to get out of the moat, it was simply overwhelming.

But these war elephants were not honest, and they were frightened and angry when they fell from such a height, so that they tossed and turned in the moat like a calf falling into a deep well.

In addition, there are not only war elephants in the moat at this time, but also people, of course, this is the exotic soldiers sitting on the war elephants, the elephants fell, they even fell into them with spears, some soldiers were pressed under the elephants, suffocated on the spot, and some competed with the elephants in the river, and the moat became lively.

The war elephants in the back are also a little chaotic. Because the bridge was broken, they had not crossed here, so the war elephants gathered more and more along the moat.

But they could only watch the Ming army enter the city, because the moat was wide and deep, and elephants could not leap over.

"Ying'er, how's it going?" Lin Yi, who was standing at the head of the city, watched the elephant army under the city toss and splash the waves, and said to Xiao Ying with a proud smile.

"So Xuanji is here?" Xiao Ying suddenly realized, "It's time for the camel artillery battle to get out of the city!" ”

"Well, your girl can be taught!" Lin Yi couldn't stop nodding, it could be regarded as a correct guess, Zhezhe, Su Moer, Gao Guiying and others covered their mouths and were happy......

Just when these elephant armies were at a loss and tossing in the moat. In an instant, the Ming army inside and outside the city gate was not chaotic at all, and then a cannon sounded, and the ambushed camel artillery team drove out under the destruction of Minmin Mutel, the general of Mobei Mongolia, and they quickly rushed out of the city gate in a neat line, and then the two dragons went out of the water to separate on both sides of the moat outside the city gate, and stood in a long line on the side of the moat.

These elephants and the Burmese soldiers sitting on top of the elephants don't know what's going on, what is this? What's on the shelf? His eyes widened in bewilderment, and the camels and camel cannons were undoubtedly the North Pole to the South Pole for these Burmese soldiers.

Just when they were puzzled, countless Mongol soldiers rushed out of the city gate, and four or five people were in charge of a camel and began to operate the camel cannons above, some were responsible for the direction, some were responsible for ignition, because the ammunition had already been loaded in the city, and some were responsible for transporting shells and explosives.

At this time, these war elephants and the exotic soldiers sitting on them with spears in their hands felt bad. Because they saw that the muzzle of the black hole was aiming at them, the clever war elephant and the soldiers above quickly wiped the elephant and retreated, and those who were slow to react, especially those who didn't know what was going on, were still standing here stupidly.

At the time of the commotion of this elephant army.

"Fire!" As soon as Minminmutel gave the order, these well-trained camel artillery teams roared out.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

Although the camel cannon is not as powerful as the cardinal cannon, it can catch up with a thousand franc machines.

Strong mobility, fast firing speed, especially suitable for close combat, is the advantage of the camel artillery. Now the distance between the two sides is close enough, only a few feet of moat, which is tantamount to close to artillery fire, and the elephant target is so big, these camel soldiers can hit accurately as long as they are not blind.

With the roar of the camel cannons, countless shells exploded in this group of war elephants. These war elephant behemoths are not afraid of artillery, but they are much more mobile than the red-coated cannons in peacetime, so the red-coated cannons can't exert their power against them, but the sky is different.

Under the fire of camels, these war elephants have nowhere to hide, nowhere to hide, which is tantamount to hanging!

One by one, the elephants were knocked down in a pool of blood by the shells, some died on the spot, some were injured, and some were frightened. Not to mention the exotic soldiers sitting on it, they fell one after another.

But falling from a horse is not the same as falling off a horse, and falling from a galloping war horse is generally miserable, but falling from an elephant is even worse, because falling from the back of such a high elephant is similar to falling from a building, and it is already half dead, and then trampled like mud by these war elephants.

"Withdraw, withdraw!" General Wink saw that it was not good, and hurriedly ordered. But at this time, it is too late, how easy is it for so many war elephants to withdraw? The elephants in front ran backwards, but the ones behind stood in their way, for these big things were too heavy and sluggish, unlike war horses that came and went like the wind.

Moreover, the shelling of these cattle soon became disorganized and undisciplined, and no matter how trained they were, Wink's command was ineffective, and these cattle were wild and ran everywhere, rushing and bumping, trampling each other, and the casualties were incalculable, and the roars and screams were incessant, and the chaos became a mess.
