The battlefield was chaotic, the front armor of the Jiannan Army was ruthlessly trampled by the elephant cavalry, and the barbarian crossbowmen in the elephant fortress on the back of the elephant also shot everywhere unscrupulously, and the infantry of the Jiannan Army suffered heavy casualties.

Dozens of soldiers surrounded an elephant and kept poking and stabbing the elephant with long blades, but the result was that the elephant had more than a dozen wounds on its body, and these dozens of soldiers of the Jiannan Army were shot by the barbarian crossbowmen on the elephant seat. The same scene played out many times.

Song Jiangong, who witnessed all this, was furious, but he couldn't think of a way for a while. The infantry charging by the brutes is pouring in like a tidal wave, and a frontal battle between the two sides will also come. But the more than 300 elephant cavalry rampaged through their own infantry formation, completely destroying the formation, how to meet the next hand-to-hand combat?

In the middle of the Chinese army, Wang Yuan sat on a tall black horse, surrounded by Gongsun Lan and the three daughters of Qingyun'er and Ziyun'er. Although there was chaos in the front, Wang Yuan was not as flustered as other generals, and his expression was very calm. A pair of sharp eyes stared at the chaotic battlefield, and when the elephant cavalry rushed into the front of the Tang army and began to wreak havoc, he did not have the slightest shock, but his face sank like water.

"Deputy Marshal Qiqi, more than 10,000 people in front of the barbarian army have rushed into a distance of seventy paces."

"Deputy Marshal Qiqi, the barbarian soldiers have entered a distance of fifty paces and are about to engage our front army."

"Deputy Marshal Qiqi, the rear team of 20,000 soldiers and horses of the barbarian army has entered the distance of two hundred steps."

Several guards cavalry sped from the front, briefly and quickly announcing the enemy's formation. When he heard that the 20,000 soldiers and horses in the rear of the barbarian army had also begun to rush within a distance of two hundred paces, Wang Yuan ordered in a deep voice: "Order Liu Jun, the cavalry attack." ”

The high command flag waved in the air, and a moment after the order was given, the 6,000 cavalry on the left and right flanks of the Tang army finally began to attack. They rushed east from the north and south, and after dozens of steps, they began to turn around and rush to the battlefield. The iron hooves stepped down, the smoke and dust billowed on the ground, and the two cavalry were like two speeding trains from the north and south to the middle of the battlefield. In just a short tea time, the two cavalry teams were like two long knives and slashed into the battlefield diagonally in the north and south.

The 20,000 men in the rear of the barbarian army were rushing to within a hundred steps in front of the Tang army at this moment, and the Tang cavalry rushing from the flank made them have to stop in horror. The cavalry of the Tang army held high the Zhangba spear, and when they approached dozens of steps in front of the barbarian formation, Rulin's spear was flattened one after another, and the spear was covered with a sling, and the tail end was pressed against the leather pocket on the saddle. In the frightened eyes of the barbarians, the two cavalrymen rushed into the barbarian formation mercilessly, and the spears of the cavalry were soon dressed like grasshoppers on the bodies of one or more barbarians.

The charge of the cavalry was fatal to the infantry. Especially these barbarians of Nanzhao, they don't have any decent armor on them, let alone swords and spears, even if they are trampled by horses' hooves, they can't afford it. The moment the cavalry broke in, it inflicted horrific damage on the barbarians. The spears of the cavalry took the lives of thousands of brutes, and the spears were useless after the charge, and after abandoning the spears, the cavalrymen took off their eight-foot-long swords from their saddles and began to stab in the barbarian formation, trampling back and forth.

Liu Jun is still the same old-fashioned, fifty black slaves in the Kunlun camp guarded him tightly, they hugged a ball like an indestructible big iron ball and rolled into the barbarian formation, the black slaves are all long-handled machetes, sledgehammers, big gourd hammers, big axes and other heavy blades, as long as these weapons are called, it is basically a dead end. Heavy weapons are smashed on the head, even if the brute soldiers parry with blades or rattan shields, even people with blades and armor will be smashed to pieces. Ten Kunlun slaves who used a sledgehammer smashed the heads of the barbarians like smashing gophers, and the heads of the barbarians who were smashed were like watermelons, and the hammers in their hands were stained with blood, hair, and brains, and the scene was extremely bloody and ferocious.

Liu Jun looked very weak under their protection, and the silver spear in his hand could only occasionally stab a brute. Often he found a gap to kill a person, but he was cut off by a machete swung in the oblique stab, and his little face was red and he kept cursing in his mouth.

The cavalry of the Tang Army basically cut off the charging formation of the barbarians, isolating the front team of more than 10,000 barbarians and more than 300 elephant cavalry from the rear of the barbarians. This is exactly the trick that Wang Yuan is used to. On the wasteland in the territory of Yanzhou that day, Wang Yuan used this method to defeat the soldiers and horses of the Xi tribe who were several times his own. Today, Wang Yuan has repeated his old tricks.

After Liu Jun's cavalry split the opponent's formation, Wang Yuan issued an order for the whole army to attack, to eat the 10,000 barbarians in front of him as quickly as possible, and to deal with the elephant cavalry, then the overall situation was basically decided.

The 8,000-strong post-army led by Liu Dehai temporarily stood still, protecting the grain and grass materials and the craftsmen and non-combatants who accompanied the army. The 15,000 soldiers and horses of the Chinese army camp all launched an attack after Wang Yuan gave the order to attack, and quickly rushed into the chaotic battle group in front. Coupled with the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of the front army, an absolute superior force was formed, and the 10,000 front team of the barbarian soldiers and the elephant cavalry team were engulfed in it.

In the vast Zhonghe peaks and valleys, there are battlefields within a radius of three or four miles, where flesh and blood fly everywhere, and blood flows everywhere, and no place is a quiet place. If you can look at the entire battlefield from the air, you will find that the seventy or eighty thousand people on the ground are slashing and slaughtering each other as if they are crazy, dozens of lives are lost in the world every breath, and every moment there are fresh lives turning into stiff and cold corpses.

The elephant cavalry was still brave, and none of the three hundred and thirty elephant cavalry had fallen, and Ren Lao was rampaging in the Tang army's array, even if some of the elephant cavalry were bleeding all over their bodies, but they showed no signs of falling. The barbarian crossbowmen in the elephant constellation also killed enough people today, and at least five or six thousand Tang soldiers were killed or wounded in their hands, and more than two thousand were shot and killed on the spot. If it weren't for the fact that their crossbow arrows were bamboo arrows, and if it weren't for the good armor protection of the Tang army, these more than 3,000 elephant crossbowmen could at least slaughter half of the Tang army's front army. It's a pity that it's still the lack of national strength that has led to their power not being fully exerted.

"Erlang, let's rush and kill. These elephant cavalry could not be allowed to run rampant, as the casualties would be too great. Gongsun Lan pulled out her long sword and said in a deep voice.

Wang Yuan frowned and didn't know what he was thinking, as if he hadn't heard Gongsun Lan's words. Gongsun Lan also waited for him to answer, and rushed out on horseback.

Zi Yun'er shouted, "Sister Gongsun be careful, the injury on your arm ......"

"You protect Erlang, I'm fine." Gongsun Lan dropped her words and rushed towards the elephant cavalry closest to her.

Wang Yuan woke up in shock and frowned, "Why is she going?" ”

Qing Yun'er said angrily: "Cousin Gongsun is going to deal with those elephant cavalry, talking to you, but you are in a daze. ”

Wang Yuan was stunned for a moment, looked up, but saw that Gongsun Lan's figure had disappeared into the chaos. A moment later, in the distance dozens of steps away, Gongsun Lan's figure jumped up in the air and landed on the elephant seat lightly and skillfully. But seeing the cold light flashing in her hand, the elephant seat woven by the thick vine was cut apart by the sword light, and more than ten barbarians on it were killed and rolled down, and the elephant's back was empty in an instant.

Without the command of the elephant driver, the elephant was even more unscrupulous, regardless of the barbarian soldiers or the Tang army, they rushed up and trampled on people when they saw them. Gongsun Lan stood on the back of the elephant that was running, swung her long sword and stabbed a few swords on the elephant's back, and the elephant screamed loudly in pain and began to run wildly. Gongsun Lan frowned, clinging to the elephant's back, seeing the crazy elephant using its tusks and trunk to fly away several soldiers of the Southern Army, suddenly jumped up and landed on the elephant's head.

The elephant shook its head and clapped its ears to shake off the person above its head, but found that it could not be shaken off at all, so it raised its thick trunk high and rolled it up to Gongsun Lan's feet above his head. Gongsun Lanjiao screamed, the sword light flashed, and I saw that the elephant's trunk was cut into several pieces, and blood gushed out. The elephant jumped violently in pain, Gongsun Lan's body was agile, and the cold light in his hand flashed again, and when the two sounds passed, the two long tusks were cut off by the long sword and broke to the ground. Gongsun Lan didn't stop doing anything, and at the moment when the elephant turned his head, the long sword pierced straight into the elephant's left eye, straight to the brain.

The elephant roared loudly, and finally staggered, its body fell to the ground like a mountain peak, the ground was full of sand, and the surrounding Jiannan soldiers turned and fled. Gongsun Lan leaped up and fell far two feet away.

The surrounding Jiannan soldiers cheered loudly, this was the first elephant cavalry to be put down. These elephant cavalry are already a shadow in everyone's hearts, completely unbeatable existence, and now they are single-handedly put down, showing that it is not invincible, of course, it is worth celebrating.

"What did you do?" When Wang Yuan rode his horse and rushed to the ground, it was when the elephant fell to the ground.

"These guys' eyes are a weak point, and shooting them with a crossbow arrow will fix them." Gongsun Lan said in a loud voice.

Some soldiers immediately took off the crossbow arrows on their bodies and prepared to carry out the eye-shooting operation, Wang Yuan scolded loudly: "Don't shoot them, these are treasures, worth a thousand gold." Stop them all, I'm going to capture them alive. ”
