Chapter 356: Breaking the Barbarian Army (1)

The war elephants of the Southern Barbarians began to rush forward, and the thirty or forty thousand barbarian soldiers followed up at a distance of about a hundred steps behind the war elephants.

But that day, after witnessing how the war elephants trampled on the Sui army's Tie Fang formation, these barbarians suddenly had the confidence to win, even if the big ghost master was ready to slip away at any time before the battle, he took the initiative to ask for war in the past two days, wanting his subordinates to take the lead, but was mercilessly rejected on the spot.

Fu Gui commanded more than 20,000 white barbarian warriors, full of rattan armor, holding knives and holding knives, following behind the war elephants, these huge beasts blocked the field of vision in front of them, as they got closer and closer to the enemy's camp, Fu Gui's heartbeat began to speed up, after all, he knew that the bow of the Sui people was strong and hard, and the 10,000 Guan Zhong army should still be in the camp now, whether he could rely on the war elephants to rush the camp in one fell swoop, he himself was not completely sure.

Meng Shelong, who was following him, had excitement shining in his eyes, and he was close to gritting his teeth at this time, thinking that the clansmen who had fallen into the hands of the Sui army had the possibility of regaining them, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to fly to the war elephants, ride these huge beasts, and trample these Sui soldiers into pulp.

The imaginary rain of arrows did not appear, less than a hundred steps away from the Sui army camp, Jiao Gui looked up at the arrow towers on those camps, and found that there was no one on it, and the Sui soldiers who usually patrolled there did not even see a shadow, only the flags planted on the upper floor and in front of the camp were hanging listlessly, and the situation was already obvious, this was an empty camp. Presumably, the 10,000 Guanzhong troops of the Sui army also secretly escaped early this morning.

Gui roared: "The Sui army is all running, everyone rush, catch up, kill them all!" Yan Yu rushed forward first, completely ignoring the need for a safe distance of a hundred paces from the war elephants, and the barbarian soldiers behind him also strode forward like a tide, and soon clung to the back of the war elephants' butts. As soon as these war elephants knocked down the guardrails of the Sui army's camp, they rushed in and killed every Sui soldier they could see.

The war elephant also seemed to be infected by this emotion, and let out a roar and slammed his nose. The wooden fences of the Sui army camp were firmly held in the ground like children's toys. Make a mess of these behemoths. Many war elephants directly rolled up the stake with their noses, threw it high in the air, and then violently used their huge bodies to squeeze the gap in front of them, and then poured in from the widened gap. They all rushed in, and some of the brave ones even ran in front of the war elephants.

He ran in front of the war elephants, and in front of him was an empty camp, densely packed with white tents. It was empty, all the tents looked very messy, and even some leather armor and weapons were thrown everywhere, it seemed that the Sui army had evacuated in a hurry, and even the weapons had no time to pack up and take away.

There was no doubt about returning to him, he smiled: "The Sui people have all run away, everyone is chasing!" After saying that, he took the lead and rushed forward, and behind him, even people with war elephants, and a large wave of barbarians were surging towards him noisily, as if waves of black and white were about to completely submerge the Sui army camp within a radius of more than ten miles.

A majestic drum suddenly sounded in the camp of the Sui army, more than two hundred steps away from Jiagui and others, hundreds of camp tents were almost all put down in an instant, thousands of armored, fully armed Sui troops suddenly appeared from the camp tents, lined up into a square array of spears like a forest, and at the front of the phalanx, there were more than 100 large shields more than one person high, the soldiers of the Sui army were all wearing evil ghost masks, not moving like a mountain, but the quiet military formation revealed an unspeakable murderous aura.

He was startled at first, and then laughed: "Don't be afraid, the Sui army is only a few thousand people, and they have trampled them to death, and the brothers retreat a little and let the war elephants go." Hurry!" With his words, the barbarian soldiers got out of the way, and the more than 100 war elephants, driven by the driver, accelerated their pace and rushed towards the Sui army array in front.

Didn't run out of twenty steps, the front twenty or so war elephants suddenly bent their front legs, their bodies were shortened, and a few elephants even directly threw the riders on their backs to the ground, and the few riders who landed on the ground did not have time to get up from the ground, and they didn't even have time to shout, so they trampled on the meat mud for the war elephants that followed behind, and soon, more than half of the war elephants stepped on the small pit on the ground, and their front legs fell into it, unable to move, only two or three war elephants could continue to move forward, but there was no longer the majesty of the elephants running together just now.

Behind the formation of the Sui army was a temporary high platform, Shi Wansui was fully armored, standing on the high platform, Wang Shichong held the Ling Flag, stood beside Shi Wansui, bowed to Shi Wansui, turned around, and waved the Ling Flag fiercely.

Hundreds of archers suddenly flashed out from behind the Sui army's great shield, and unlike usual, they were all burning rockets in their hands, and in an instant, hundreds of firebirds pierced the entire sky, landing precisely on some of the chaotic looking wooden piles near these small pits where the war elephants were trapped.

As soon as the firewood pile drenched in tung oil met the fire, it immediately ignited a raging fire, and dozens of war elephants fell into the flames at once, and a terrible scream came one after another, and the decibel number of war elephants was far higher than that of humans, which made this kind of scream even more terrifying.

The Sui army's gun array suddenly dispersed, and hundreds of southwest horses covered with tiger skins ran out of it, because the southwest horses were short and sturdy, they covered with tiger skins looked like the tigers of the king of the jungle, and riding on these "tigers" were more than 100 crossbowmen, holding the strong crossbows in their hands, and shooting at the war elephants trapped in the trap and the sea of fire, only in an instant, the dense crossbow arrows penetrated the fire, nailing the war elephants' bodies and legs everywhere.

The red eyes of the war elephants flashed with deep fear, and the "tigers" on the opposite side would also make their bodies full of wounds, and the raging fire around them magnified this pain and fear infinitely, and they could no longer care about the control of the riders on their backs or even the spears, they jumped out of the small pit, turned their heads and ran backwards.

The Southern Barbarian soldiers who followed behind the war elephants had fallen into blood mold for eight lifetimes, and when they rushed in just now, there were forty or fifty thousand soldiers who filled the three or four miles from the large array of their own side to the Sui army camp, and they were ready to follow the impact of the war elephants and let go of the slaughter, but they didn't expect that now these more than 100 war elephants all turned around and stepped on themselves, because the people were densely packed together, there was no room to escape, so they were directly trampled into meat paste.

The war elephants were the closest to the war elephants, and the first ones were trampled to death, and then the barbarians who had lost their command ran around like headless flies, and the war elephants were already red-eyed, roaring, and struggling desperately, shaking, first throwing off all the riders on their backs, and then trampling and crushing every creature that stood in their way, and the terrified brutes were knocked down by these giant beasts in pieces, trampled to death, and turned into bloody mud on the ground, and their condition was terrible.

Wang Shichong had a cold smile on his lips, and waved the flag again, and the phalanx of the Sui army began to move forward slowly, in order to keep the fire from getting out of control, there were only a dozen of the firewood piles piled up on the edge of the trap, and the fire was much smaller than just now, the soldiers of the front army of the Sui army held long lances, stepped forward, sang war songs, and moved forward slowly, and in the gap between the formations, the crossbowmen and archers followed up, while shooting crossbows and arrows, and kept following the back of the war elephant's buttocks like this, driving these giant beasts farther and farther, faster and faster.

Because the fence of the camp was not completely destroyed, the limited dozens of small openings could not let the tens of thousands of barbarians trapped in the camp all run out, many small openings tripped a lot of people, but blocked the flow of people fleeing behind, and the frightened and crazy war elephants stepped on the barbarian soldiers all the way, and finally broke down those fences, and continued to rush all the way to the barbarian soldiers on the plain outside.
