In fact, among the species of elephants, the Asian elephant is only slightly smaller than the African elephant, four meters tall at the shoulder, weighing nearly five tons, like a moving castle, plus the cage seat on the back, although the speed of walking is not too fast, every step is like a giant hammer hitting the ground, and the four shocks are blowing.

The reason why they are called war elephants is because each head is covered with golden armor and colorful feathers on their heads, which makes them look extremely majestic, like the mounts of the gods, and came to the mortal world.

By the standards of later generations, Li Siye, who is more than two meters long, can be regarded as tall in the crowd, but compared with these behemoths, he looks so small.

The Tang army, which numbered no more than 3,000 people, was located in the center of the military array, and his banner was carried on the shoulders of a big man who was almost the same as it, with a red background and teeth, woven from tribute silk, symbolizing the military rank, and the two brocade raccoon dogs were blown by the wind like a silver snake.

More than 7,000 military horses let out an uneasy roar in front of the war elephants, which numbered no more than twelve, because these species from the Western Regions and the grasslands were the first time they had seen the largest beast on land, and even the king of beasts did not dare to challenge it easily.

These war elephants were scattered in the military formation in turn, and the left flank consisted of more than 8,000 soldiers and horses from more than 10 countries such as Wuchang, Jiandaluo, Ji Lostmi, Xie Biao, etc., waving all kinds of banners, foot and horseman, different costumes, and armor wearing rates were also very different.

The right wing is also more than ten countries, composed of people from Zhongtianzhu and the former Tibetan vassals of Pidilanda, Ge Lost Ma, Paluo, Jiawulu and other countries, a total of about 10,000, they pulse down along the high mountain, and it is condescending, and the momentum is quite bluffing for a time.

This is a ragtag team composed of nearly 30 countries, with different orders and different languages, and they can gather together, all of them are coming to the bright red banner of the Chinese army, and over the past hundred years, the appeal of the Tang people has gradually deepened, giving people an impression that is difficult to shake, and finally, when this impression becomes concrete action, these small and small countries have issued a response.

Because, compared to the Tang Dynasty, which is far away, Tubo is the unstable factor affecting stability and unity in this region, and now there is a boss who is coming forward, they only need to follow behind, waving the flag and shouting, and anyone can count this kind of deal.

In particular, when the 3,000 Tang troops passed by, the kind of blind military appearance concretized this impression, and the army of the Celestial Empire, each of which was a tall and strong Guanzhong man, naturally had a sense of invincibility among these South Asian races that were naturally shorter.

Only Li Siye knew that the nearly 20,000 so-called guest troops were far inferior to the soldiers and horses of Talas, Qarlu and Bakhana, and they showed quite good combat effectiveness at least before they defected.

The only thing he can count on is his own 3,000 soldiers, but what he has to face is an endless sea of people, covering the entire plateau, if it weren't for the guide of the Duguli, he wouldn't have believed that his own army had captured the capital of the Tubo people!

Of course, he could see that most of them were herdsmen, dressed in Tibetan robes, without any armor, and were frightened in front of his army, and even the cattle did not care, so they ran all the way back.

Three thousand soldiers and horses are rampant in the hinterland of the Tubo people, and he is not afraid!

Soon, the Tubo people reacted, the sharp horns sounded one after another, and the Tubo cavalry in black clothes, black armor and black flags appeared from a distance, and Li Siye immediately issued an order and made a-for-tat deployment.

"The light cavalry of the Li Fei Yuanli Department is the flank, the whole army dismounts, the Mo sword is with me, and the rest are moving forward, ready to charge, all the countries follow the banner of the Tang Dynasty, and watch me wait for a try of the edge of the Tubo people."

After saying that, he jumped down from his mount, easily lifted the Mo knife hanging on the reserve horse with one hand, untied the cloth on it, and carried it upside down to the front of the formation, and the sergeants behind him were the same, they followed their commander, stepped through the front formation of light horses, and stood out at the front of the whole army.

Li Fei Yuanli obeyed the order, and the five hundred light horsemen moved closer to the left and right flanks respectively, giving up the middle position, and the Tang infantry brigade stepped forward in turn, arranging in the back according to the order of spears, swords and shields, and bows and crossbows.

Li Siye's left and right are the same as him, all of them are tall and arm-length big men, and even the size of the Mo knife in his hand is not far apart, the fine Mingguang armor tightly binds their bodies, and the big red tassels on the iron helmet are blown up by the wind, like a large piece of brilliant blood flowers, blooming on the Qingqiang Plateau full of autumn.

This team of 500 people is the elite of the army that he called "Modaodu", charging in front and avoiding in the back, like an arm and a finger, sharp and unstoppable.

Li Siye, who was standing at the forefront of the entire team, looked at the Tubo heavy cavalry that was surging in the tide, and as soon as the team was assembled, he pulled his feet forward and rushed forward to meet the enemy without giving way.

The two streams of people approached quickly, Li Siye looked around angrily, his beard stood up, his beard was open, like a tiger descending from the mountain, at the moment of collision, Mo Dao had been raised high above his head, and five hundred pairs of big hands were the same as him, forming a neat forest.

Knife Wall!

"Broken!"

The iron cavalry flew in, the huge blade of the knife slashed down like lightning, and the blade broke the body along the horse's head, cutting the galloping war horse into two pieces with the heavily armored knight on the horse, blood splashed like rain, Li Siye and his son-in-law, had already stepped on the flesh and blood of the Tubo people, and crashed into the cavalry.

The split horse style that was once performed by Liu Ji with all his strength was as light as a weight in his hands, but it was just a fluttering move.

In front of the eyes of nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses of various countries, this small Tang army team gave them a shock comparable to that of war elephants, like a touch of bright red, immersed in the ink pool, and what was covered up and disappeared was not red, but the entire pool of ink.

"Kill the thief!"

The 2,500 Tang sergeants behind him rushed over with a shout, stepping on the flesh and blood passage opened up by the main general, expanding the results of the battle little by little.

"Kill the thief!"

Li Fei Yuanli raised his lance and fiercely urged the mounts under his crotch, and the horses who were threatened by the war elephants all the way let out a long neigh, and desperately spread their hooves and rushed towards the black war clouds that kept surging in the distance.

They just want to get as far away from that monster as possible.
