"Elephant, it's an elephant!!"

"Don't be noisy! Whoever looks around again, tomorrow will go and chop wood, there will be no need to fight!! ”

The shouts of reprimands in the Hulin military array came and went, why did this army, which has always paid attention to discipline, have such a scene of fluctuating people's hearts?

Astound! The spear phalanx of the Tiger Forest Army is about to collapse, and the reason for this is...

The enemy army has indeed dispatched war elephants!

Many soldiers had never seen an elephant, and the biggest animal many had ever seen was a cow, or the "pig boss" named by Huangzhou every year, an "elephant" with a height of more than two floors, and no one believed it to be real. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Not to mention the long nose, the limbs as thick as the pillars of the house, and the body like a wall, and of course, the two long tusks, which have been seen.

But now, it really appeared in front of me!

During the pre-war mobilization yesterday, the generals mentioned that they were likely to encounter enemy elephants today, and of course, the elephants that went to the battlefield were war elephants, and it was said that they were unstoppable.

One foot can trample a person to death, a long nose can roll up a person and throw it more than ten steps away, or throw up an elephant's trunk like a whip, and several people can be stopped and broken at once!

There is also the long fangs, which can pierce several people at the same time with a stab, and the war elephant is even very likely to be wearing iron armor wearing leather armor, and ordinary arrows, swords and spears are helpless.

Therefore, as soon as the war elephants rushed up, almost no one could stop them, so I asked you if you were afraid?

"Didn't you say that war elephants were afraid of loud noises and pain? Why is the attack of Zhou Changshi ineffective? ”

Don't put Tian Zhengyue down the clairvoyant mirror and discuss with the generals around him, Liu Bo'er, the commander of the army, touched his chin and said his judgment uncertainly: "Could it be that these beasts are addicted to drugs?" ”

"Well, maybe..."

Several generals really couldn't think of why the enemy war elephants were so "abnormal", and they could only explain it with the popular "drug addiction" in the army, although they didn't know why the King of Xiyang liked to use this term to describe the abnormal behavior of some people.

Don't have to worry too long, the horn sounded in the Chen Junxiang array, and those behemoths began to turn around and go straight towards the Hulin military formation.

"Coming, coming!"

Tian Zhengyue and the others were very excited when they saw this, the opportunity to break the elephant array was snatched away by Zhou Faming, but they didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the Tiger Forest Army.

In other words, it is to be a bait, to withstand the enemy's left and right flanking attacks, and to watch others make meritorious contributions, what is the result? Waiting for a herd of elephants, this is all military feats!

Hey, it's a shame to slaughter war elephants, and you have to blow it with your relatives and friends for three days and three nights when you go back!

However, with an outsider like Cui Changshi, you can't use a flame bottle to isobarize the baby at the bottom of the box, so you can only come hard!

"Strikers! Strikers are ready!! ”

The shouts came out from the middle of the phalanx, and the soldiers of the front team, who were resting on the bed of the hu, threw the kettle in their hands when they heard this, tore off the big straw hat they wore on their heads, and took the deputy soldier and handed it to put on.

Long-handled axes, heavy spears, palladium, and swords, which are the most popular types of long soldiers used by the soldiers of the front team, as well as short armor-piercing soldiers such as maces, short axes, and T-shaped armor-piercing hoes, are all taken up by the deputy soldiers and submitted to the corresponding regular soldiers.

Mai Tiezhu looked enviously at his partner's regular soldiers ready to go, based on his conscience, he hoped that his comrades would be safe and sound, but based on some selfishness, he hoped that his comrades would lose their combat effectiveness, so he would be able to play in place.

The Zhanfeng team is the vanguard of the Tiger Forest Army, the casualty rate is extremely high, but the return is also very high, not to mention the treatment and pension, the chance of meritorious service alone is much higher than others.

Many people join the Tiger Forest Army because they are rushing to make meritorious service and protect their wives, so no matter how dangerous the front team is, the posts are also very sought-after.

Mai Tiecane has made great contributions one after another since the official army crossed the Great Yuling, but he is not satisfied, and has been gearing up to make new contributions, but now that the Hulin Army is in a position to have a wild wave battle, he has no chance to "start" as a recruit

"Lao Mai, don't worry, I won't let you have a chance to play, hehe!"

Hearing his partner say this, Mai Tie Staff also laughed dryly, and a piercing creaking sound sounded around him, and when he turned his head to look, it was the crossbowman who was shaking the winch handle to wind the iron crossbow.

Iron crossbow, the crossbow arm is made of iron, and the power required for its winding can be imagined, so it is necessary to use the winch of the crossbow body to wind, and the winch crossbow used by the Tiger Forest Army crossbow has surpassed the common hand-held strong crossbow.

Several more rows of archers came out of the ranks, about fifty paces ahead, and the archers were divided into four rows, some distance between the front and the back, and stuck the long wooden sticks they held in their hands into the ground, and then took out the fire sickles they carried with them, and set fire to the flammable object wrapped around the top of the sticks.

This is the preparation of the archers before firing the rockets, just when the Hulin army has just finished arranging, the Chen army war elephants have approached from the west, and the Chen army, which is attacking from the east camp, has also approached the east side of the Hulin army formation.

The abdomen and back were attacked by the enemy, and the left and right were flanked, but the soldiers of the Hulin Army had no cowardice, because the spear formation that had been trained for many years was the greatest guarantee of their confidence, and their task was to be a thorn in front of the enemy.

With a roar, the war elephant, which had approached a distance of eighty paces, began to accelerate, and the archers of the Tiger Forest Army silently watched as the other party approached him, methodically igniting the arrows on the bow.

Seventy paces away, the first round of rockets was fired, and the rockets fired by four rows of archers in turn enveloped the marching war elephants like a rain of fire, and many of them were hit by arrows, but the burning arrows did not panic the war elephants.

The thick cowhide armor made it impossible for the rocket that was submerged in it to burn happily, only a little spark and wisps of green smoke came out, and the Chen army continued to move forward, and the pace became significantly faster.

At a distance of fifty-five paces, the second round of rockets was fired, but it still failed to panic the war elephants, and at the same time, the Chen army attacking from the east side already had cavalry advancing towards the Hulin army formation, and the Zhou army's large array did not move, and the retreating cavalry did not come to reinforce it.

Forty paces away, the third round of rockets was fired, and the Chen army war elephants on the west side began to panic a little, but the driver quickly controlled the mount, and the Chen army cavalry on the east side was ready to mount and attack the Hulin army formation.

Twenty-five paces away, in the face of the war elephants close at hand, the archers of the Hulin Army calmly shot the fourth round of rockets, some of the war elephants have begun to burst into flames, and blood also flows from the middle arrows, the elephants are a little restless, but they are suppressed by the drivers.

"Rapid Fire!!"

Instead of setting the arrows on fire, the Hulin archers fired two rounds of arrows with all their might, and just as the elephant was about to rush in front of them, they ran backwards.

Where they stood, rows of pointed bamboos were exposed, and with the pull of the ropes, suddenly their ends stood up, just in front of the sprinting war elephants.

The unstoppable elephant herd crashed into the bamboo array so unsuspectingly, and the piercing sound of the bamboo breaking caused countless wails.

The heavy body made the war elephant rush towards the bamboo pointing at him, some of the bamboo directly pierced the cowhide armor and pierced into the head, mouth, and front blade of the war elephant, while some of the bamboo failed to penetrate the armor, but successfully slowed down the progress of the war elephant.

The retreating archers were like the ebb tide of the sea, while many of the big men of the Pals were going up against the tide, the vanguard of the Tiger Forest Army, charging on foot towards the war elephants blocked by the Maozhu formation, followed by pikemen who attacked as cover.

At a distance of thirty paces, some of them threw heavy spears at the war elephants, these well-made spears were the most reliable armor-piercing weapons before the front team broke out, and they could easily penetrate the iron armor, and the cowhide armor was shaped like cloth in front of them, no matter how thick the cowhide armor was.

In the poof, the huge body of the war elephants were pierced by the spears, each spear was deeply pierced into the elephant's body, the wound was like a spring of blood, the effect of the anesthetic could not suppress the huge pain, and the second round of spear throwing aggravated the pain of the war elephants.

Fear, spontaneously.

"Zhanfeng! Breaking the Formation!! ”

In the midst of the howl, the soldiers of the front team held the long soldiers in their hands, charged towards the behemoths trapped in the bamboo array, and the first one was the first, wielding an axe and halberd to slash hard, splitting the trunk of a war elephant in front of him.

Blood splattered everywhere, and a terrible wail resounded over the battlefield.

On the east side of the Hulin military formation, the spearmen with guns in the front row squatted down, revealing the crossbowmen behind them, they were divided into three rows, holding winch crossbows flat, and aimed at the Chen army in front of them.

"Ready! Three-stage shot! ”
