Chapter 1304: Providence Makes People
Five or six miles from the battlefield, in a high ground!
The empress, Song Qi, and Mingyue stood up and stared at the battlefield ahead.
In the Yan army's camp, a small group of cavalry rushed out and went straight to the elephant herd coming from the north.
Song Qi licked the corners of his dry mouth and said to the empress: "Emperor Yan is really bold, dare to send a small force of cavalry to block the elephant herd coming from the north, isn't this a joke with the life of the Yan army, doesn't he have a better way?"
Hearing this, the empress still looked at the battlefield in front of her, and said softly: "Do you think the Yan army will not win?"
The Chu army fought without declaring a war, and the situation was very bad for the Yan army, however, the empress believed in Lin Feng's means.
Otherwise, it would have been a pity to lose in the hands of Lin Feng and Yan Jiang in the first place.
If Lin Feng led the Yan army to defeat today, and the situation in the south was at a comparable stage, she would dispel the idea of going to Wuyi Island to stand on her own feet and return to the Song Kingdom to restore the country.
Song Qi stared at the mighty elephant herd in the north, and the Xuanjia soldiers on both wings, and said excitedly: "The Yan army came from the south, the foothold was not stable, the Chu army did not declare war, and raided the Yan army, at this moment, Emperor Yan ordered the infantry to withdraw to the east, and sent a small force of cavalry to meet the battle, I am afraid that the elephant soldiers are testing the combat effectiveness, if they can't stop the edge of the Chu army, they will definitely lead the cavalry to escape."
When the empress heard this, she chuckled again and again: "That's right, the Yan army is afraid of the elephant herd, but Lin Feng must not be afraid, otherwise, he would not have taken the liberty of sending a small group of cavalry to battle, this is a temptation, not a containment."
Immediately, the empress's gaze shifted to the battlefield again.
Hou Mingfeng personally led three thousand ironclad cavalry to shuttle down from the heights, facing the 10,000 elephant soldiers from the north, and the Xuanjia soldiers on the left and right wings, although including Hou Mingfeng, the inner Yan cavalry, was a little panicked in his heart.
However, the swallow rode the horse and shuttled, galloping quickly,
As he walked forward, he picked up his repeater and aimed at the elephants, looking at death as if he were at home.
At this time, Hou Mingfeng reminded the soldiers beside him: "The emperor has a saying, the giant elephant has rough skin and thick meat. Ordinary blades are difficult to hurt, so we will rush and kill head-on, and when we are a stone's throw away from the elephant herd, quickly shoot the Xuanjia soldiers on the left flank, and get close to the elephant herd and burn the giant elephant with fire oil!"
Hou Mingfeng's words, in the forward iron horse, word of mouth.
The eyes of the charging cavalry gradually shifted to the left flank of the Chu army. The repeater changes direction.
In the elephant herd in front of him, Wen Renshao sat in the huge basket on the back of the giant elephant, looking at the small group of swallows approaching in front of him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
Han Qianmo, who was galloping towards the ground, shouted wildly: "General Han, Emperor Yan is shrinking into the high ground, leading the troops not daring to move forward, sending three thousand iron horsemen, in a vain attempt to destroy the elephant herd, you and I will kill the elephant herd first, and capture Emperor Yan again, we will definitely be able to make meritorious contributions."
Wen Renshao's body was short, with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, he stood up suddenly, holding the sword in his hand, with an arrogant and arrogant attitude, and he didn't take the three thousand Yanqi led by Hou Mingfeng in his eyes at all.
When Han Qianmo heard this, he shouted loudly: "Hearing people, don't be careless, even the marshal is afraid of Hou Mingfeng's three points, if you underestimate the enemy and lead to the battlefield forces, don't blame the prince for being unkind to you."
They are all young generals, lack of battlefield experience, it is difficult to compare with veterans who have experienced a hundred battles, not to mention, the opponent of this battle is still Hou Mingfeng, who is famous in the vassal states, and the male lord Emperor Yan, even if the Chu army is in its prime, he still does not dare to underestimate the enemy!
"General Han, you are too cautious, wait until the general personally captures Hou Mingfeng!" Hearing the arrogance of the people, he overflowed his face, raised his sword, and urged the elephant herd to move forward quickly.
At this time, when he was rapidly approaching Yan Qi, he suddenly reined in his horse and changed his direction, avoiding the elephant herd that seemed to be coming from the torrent, and went directly to the left wing.
Riding his horse and galloping, he picked up his crossbow and shot directly at the Xuanjia soldiers who were approaching the left flank.
In an instant, a rain of arrows came out from the crossbow, like a swarm of bees, and headed in the direction of Han Qianmo's troops.
When the iron cavalry dodged the war horse and gradually appeared on the left flank, the overwhelming rain of arrows came, Han Qianmo's face turned pale in an instant, and he hurriedly shouted: "Hold the shield, block!"
Immediately, he scolded in a cold voice: "This group of bastards, who are specifically looking for soft persimmons to pinch, why don't they dare to fight against the elephant soldiers!"
Complaining and complaining, Han Qianmo still hurriedly led the Xuanjia soldiers to block in formation, but unfortunately the arrow rain came suddenly, when he ordered the Xuanjia soldiers to block in formation, the soldiers in front had already fallen into the arrow rain.
Yan Qi pulled the repeater, continuously pulled the repeater, and shot out all the arrows in the repeater with one brain, and then quickly took out the fire fold and fire oil from the horse's back, and took advantage of the approaching elephant herd, and the elephant herd had not yet turned back, ignited the fire oil fill, and threw it out with lightning speed.
"The whole army withdraws to the east!" The first wave of attacks succeeded, Hou Mingfeng took advantage of the panic of the Xuanjia soldiers, and the elephant herd was turning around, and quickly commanded the iron cavalry beside him.
With the order, the swallow rode like a tide, hurriedly retreating into the distance.
The iron cavalry is very relaxed, but the situation is a bit bad when I hear that Renshao is leading the elephant soldiers.
The oil poured into the giant elephant's body, and the oil splashed everywhere, burning quickly and hurriedly.
The elephant soldiers who rode on the back of the giant elephant were attacked by the flames and fled in a hurry.
To make matters worse, the giant elephant was attacked by flames, showing a state of panic, shaking its huge body again and again, and the Chu army on the back of the elephant encountered a violent sensation, and was thrown off from the back of the giant elephant, encountering the giant elephant running in a panic, nine times out of ten it was trampled on, and died tragically on the spot.
The elephant herd that was charging head-on suddenly turned back, and encountered the impact of the giant elephant threatened by fire, and suddenly, the menacing elephant herd suddenly became messy.
In Wen Renshao's expression, there was no longer the previous arrogance and arrogance, but instead he was furious, panicked and reorganized the elephant herd.
Hou Mingfeng led three thousand iron cavalry, almost zero casualties, retreated, walked for several miles, taking advantage of the chaos of the elephant herd, the Xuanjia soldiers lined up, and ordered the iron cavalry to quickly fill the arrows, ready to launch a second wave of attacks.
In the high ground in the distance, Song Qi witnessed the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but exclaim: "This Hou Mingfeng is really good at using soldiers, in the face of the flying elephant soldiers, he didn't pay many casualties, but made the Chu army as quiet as a cicada!" However, according to this situation, Hou Mingfeng may still be unable to completely annihilate this group of Chu troops!"
"It's true that three thousand iron cavalry can't cause too many casualties to the elephant soldiers and Xuanjia soldiers, however, don't forget, not far away, Lin Feng personally led nearly 100,000 iron cavalry, if they all rush up, the Chu army will be stripped of their skin if they don't die!" The empress looked calm, as if she had expected such an ending.
"Alas, the Yan army is strong, no matter how much we toss, it may be difficult to restore the Song Kingdom, fortunately, God protects us, we still have a chance to make a comeback." Song Qi seemed to have been hit very hard, and sighed for a long time.
"Providence makes people, and letting Lin Feng rise at the beginning means that the emperors and generals of this era are allowed to be expelled!" The empress was influenced by Song Qi, and said with a sigh, and when she was silent for a while, she instructed Song Qi: "When this war is over, immediately arrange a meeting with Emperor Yan, and strive to extort Emperor Yan and obtain enough weapons."
