Zhuge Ke was not idle during this time, and he was still very busy, entangled with Fan Chang in front, not only to appear overwhelmed, but also not to collapse thousands of miles, try to maintain the rhythm, not to let Fan Changsheng doubt, the rear also has to choose a suitable ambush site to dig pits, how many pits to dig, how big pits to dig, these are all exquisite, Zhuge Ke worked tirelessly to ask one by one, the scene was inspected no less than three times, its serious and responsible attitude is self-evident, not only Sun Deng is very satisfied, even Guan Feng and Sun Shangxiang These people are also very admired, Heda, who has always been above the top, has nothing to say.

To be honest, Zhuge Ke is not like his Laozi Zhuge Jin, on the contrary, he is very similar to his uncle Zhuge Liang, ambitious, capable, and hands-on, for this famous battle, he has paid unimaginable efforts.

Zhuge Ke didn't know how Guan Feng did it, for five days in a row, they hunted and killed more than 200 scattered soldiers who went out of Fan Chang, although the record was not brilliant, but this kind of scoundrel-style stalking successfully provoked Fan Chang's anger, and after leaving the mountains and forests, Fan Chang let go of his footsteps and marched, all the way into his encirclement.

In front of Fan Chang, Zhuge Ke dug three deep ditches in the shape of concave characters, which were three or four miles long, and just loaded Fan Chang's forward into it. Planks were laid on the ditch, and the soldiers had no problem walking, but as soon as the elephant went up, there was no doubt that they would fall into the pit.

These experiences come from the last time the pit was dug to get Fan Zhan's battle, with a successful example, these Wu soldiers are more handy, the little Zhuge next to the prince is not only smart and strategic, but also very kind to the soldiers, in addition to asking them for warmth, but also often very politely ask them for advice, which makes them feel very face-saving, work a hundred times more energetic, and strive to dig the pit close to perfection.

The success of the first war elephant fell into the pit, opened the prelude to the war, Lu Dai and Zhuge Ke personally led the army to cover up from behind, the elite of Wu who had been driven by the Funan people for more than a month had already held their stomachs, and now they finally had the opportunity to vent, they clenched the weapons in their hands, and lined up in a neat queue to force the rear of the Funan army, although the speed was not very fast, but the sense of pressure brought by the strict formation made the sweaty Funan people feel a chill.

It was just the hot summer, but the soldiers of Wu Guo were neatly dressed, and the soldiers who walked in the front wore armor, and the metal pieces on the armor shone in the dazzling sunlight, making people dare not face them, they held shields, and the shields were painted with red paint in the shape of flames, and from a distance, it seemed to be a jumping wall of fire. Behind these soldiers, the crossbowmen walked, and under the command of the officers, they fired their bows and crossbows to the beat of the drums, and the rain of arrows crossed the distance of a hundred paces and leaped to the rear of the panicked Funan army. These Funan soldiers ran for a long time, hot like dogs sticking out their tongues and panting, the formation had already been chaotic, and suddenly they were ambushed, the spiritual shock was self-evident, eagerly, although the drums were loud, and the officers were also trying their best to organize the team to fight back, but everything seemed too late, they had just shot sporadic arrows, and the people of Wu had already shot a second array of arrows.

The sound of long arrows breaking through the air was endless, flying into the Funan army formation, the Funan soldiers originally had no protective devices, and even if they had now, they were almost taken off, even most of the shields were on their backs, and in the face of sharp arrows, they had no more good ways except to open their eyes and hold their heads in vain.

The sudden rain of arrows caused a lot of damage, and the galloping arrows pierced the black and thin chests of the Funan people, bursting out strings of blood beads, and the wounded soldiers let out terrible screams, some of them were angry on the spot, and more were injured but not dead, they threw away their weapons, fell to the ground and howled, rolling all over the earth, mud and blood and sweat, and soon turned them into mud monkeys.

After the Wu army succeeded in the first attack, the crossbowmen stood up on the spot and shot wildly, while the soldiers with swords and halberds lined up in a column and rushed out from the gap between the crossbowmen, and rushed straight to the rear of Funan, which had been disrupted. In the face of the Funan people who fell to the ground and screamed, they did not have any compassion at all, raised the weapons in their hands and killed as much as they wanted, while slashing and killing the Funan soldiers they encountered, while advancing as fast as possible, and at the same time roaring angrily, spreading their fear to the depths of the military formation.

Lu Dai roared in with the guard battalion, and wherever the sword went, blood flew everywhere, and three people were killed in a row, and the violent appearance of the battle made people not think that he was over sixty years old. It has been almost a year since Lu Dai arrived in Yuenan, and this battle has been very aggrieved, first by the district company sneak attack on the baggage team, although it occupied the West Roll City, and finally could only take the initiative to retreat, and could only wait for Sun Deng to come to the rescue. Lu Dai is an old minister in Jiangdong, since he took the initiative to take refuge in Sun Quan, he has fought countless battles, but he has never been so aggrieved. A dignified veteran, in the end, he could only give up his military power, and watching Zhuge Ke, a hairless young man, command the battle, it was a great insult to Lu Dai. This time, Zhuge Ke transferred the most elite soldiers of the Wu army to his command and let him launch the first wave of attacks, which was a good opportunity for him to take revenge, if he couldn't seize this opportunity, then it would be difficult for him to gain a foothold in Jiangdong in the future.

So as soon as he launched an attack, Lu Dai went all out at any cost. The weather is very hot, and it is sweaty to sit bare-chested, not to mention that now he has to wear a full set of clothes to fight, the sweat has already soaked through his battle robe, all stuck to his body, and even the sound of water can be heard in his boots, and his two feet seem to be stepping on water, but Lu Dai completely ignored it, he held a war knife, rushed to the front with his personal guards, and ordered the whole army to move forward, forward, and advance again with the greatest strength.

Zhuge Ke did not rush to the front, he commanded the crossbowmen to advance in an orderly manner, covering Lu Dai's charge at the most suitable distance. Although he wanted to show his bravery in the battle formation, he knew that it was more important to give Lu Dai a chance to take revenge at this time than to fight himself, not to mention that he was now the commander-in-chief of the whole army, and he should pay attention to the development of the entire battle situation, rather than hacking a few Funan soldiers to death.

Under the command of Zhuge Ke and the impact of Lu Dai, the Funan rear formation collapsed after only supporting the tea kung fu, and the Funan soldiers who were not shot and hacked to death were scattered, and were driven forward by Lu Dai and rushed straight to the Chinese army, and even the baggage soldiers threw down the grain cart and ran with the flow of people.

The Chinese army is not easy, Fan Chang, who is immersed in the dream of making meritorious contributions, has not recovered from the strange disappearance of the war elephant, and has been attacked by arrow arrays on both sides, although he is in the Chinese army, Wu's bow and crossbow can not threaten him at all, but the fear of falling into the ambush circle still makes Fan Chang's mind blank for a while. The generals on the left and right sides were in a hurry and asked for action, but Fan Chang stood stunned on the back of the war elephant and was dumbfounded, and after a while, he came to his senses and knew that the matter of making meritorious contributions should be put back and solve the current predicament first.

Fan Chang raised his eyes and looked around, the front army was already in chaos, the rear army was also in chaos, and the left and right sides were attacked by the opponent's crossbows, surrounded on all sides, looking very dangerous, but he was not worried. First, he knew that the army of the army was superior, and the army of Wu was surrounded on all sides, and it seemed that he wanted to catch it all, but in fact, he made the mistake of a snake trying to swallow an elephant, as long as he gathered the army in one place, it was impossible for the Wu army to swallow him.

"Drumming, shrinking formation." Fan Chang waved his hand and gave an order: "The war elephant stops, send foot soldiers to explore the way." ”

The drums exploded, and the panicked Funan soldiers slowly retreated under the command of the drums, and the one standing in the front raised his shield, covering the archers to fight back, but they only withdrew thirty paces away, they found that the Wu army was only shooting from a distance, and did not chase after the fight, the originally chaotic Funan soldiers slowly calmed down after the initial fear, they stood on all sides, vigilantly paying attention to the enemy on the opposite side, only the rear army shouted killing, but it was Lu Dai who had already defeated the rear army, is rushing the rear army to attack Fan Chang's Chinese army.

Seeing that the rear army had collapsed, and the heavy grain and grass had almost all been lost, and had become the trophies of the Wu army, Fan Chang was so angry that his face turned pale, and he ordered the personal guard battalion to step forward and stop in front of the defeated soldiers, waved the war knife in his hand, and killed hundreds of defeated soldiers in one go, which finally stopped the disorderly escape of the routed soldiers and allowed them to pass through the gap between the two armies, so as not to disrupt the Chinese army.

Thirty war elephants lined up in a line, roaring in unison at Lu Daibu, who was rushing over. The low elephant roar reminded Lu Dai, and he hurriedly ordered the drumming to reorganize the formation, and the armor soldiers with shields stepped forward to form a horizontal formation, and more than a hundred shields painted with flames were lined up, like a wall of fire, and there was a bit of momentum under the scorching heat, and at the same time, more than 3,000 morale-boosting soldiers stamped their feet in unison and shouted:

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The roar was like thunder, which suddenly overshadowed the roar of the war elephants, and suppressed the momentum of the Funan army. The war elephants that were slowly approaching became a little restless, and a few of them even stopped, intending to walk back, even if the elephant soldiers on their backs were desperately whipping, they would not take another step forward. Although the soldiers knew that the flames on those shields were fake, the war elephants did not have such a high IQ, and from a distance, the fire wall formed by these shields was no different from the real one, and the heavenly surnames who were afraid of fire made them afraid, not to mention the loud cheers caused by Wu Jun's deliberate shouting.

Lu Dai saw the hesitation of the war elephants, his heart was overjoyed, he was most worried about the war elephants of the Funan people, Zhuge Ke dug a long pit in the shape of a concave character, there are pits on the front and left and right sides of the Funan people, not afraid of the impact of the war elephants, but there is no pit in the rear, and it is precisely because of this that Zhuge Ke arranged the eight thousand most elite soldiers in the rear. However, in the face of the impact of the war elephants, Lu Dai did not know whether the shield prepared by Zhuge Ke could work, in case the war elephants did not eat this set at all and rushed over directly, then he would face heavy casualties, and he might even be defeated.

Seeing that the shield had the desired effect, Lu Dai finally relieved some heart, and he continued to make persistent efforts, while ordering the armor soldiers to hold the shield and slowly step forward, and shaking the shield from time to time to make the flame look more realistic, while ordering more than 200 soldiers holding the gong to step forward, and at the same time rang the gong.

"Bang bang bang...... Bang bang bang bang ......"

The sharp explosion of the gong was sudden and rapid, and the war elephants, who were already a little uneasy, suddenly heard such a harsh sound, and could no longer maintain their composure, first the two war elephants suddenly let out a long roar, raised their front hooves, and the man stood up, threw the soldiers on his back, and then turned and ran, and then, more war elephants began to turn around.

"Rush forward!" Lu Dai was ecstatic, the method prepared by Zhuge Ke really worked, if he could drive these war elephants to attack the Chinese army of the Funan people, the effect would be much more powerful than the rear army of the Funan people. He seized the advantageous opportunity, struck while the iron was hot, and ordered the armor soldiers in front of him to speed forward, and at the same time used the final killing move.

Rocket!

More than 300 crossbowmen drew their bows, mounted the rockets that had been prepared long ago, lit the ignition tied to the shaft of the arrow, and then fired at the war elephant. Although these arrows could not have killed these war elephants, the fire was genuine, and there was grease in the ignition materials, and as long as they hit the war elephants, the fire would stick to them and burn, which was enough to cause the war elephants to lose their feet.

The rockets roared away, and almost none of the thirty war elephants were spared, the few hit one or two rockets, the many had seven or eight rockets, and the worst ones were hit by more than a dozen, and the flames were blazing, burning the skin and flesh of the war elephants, and the severe pain made the war elephants completely lose their minds, and they could no longer control themselves, turned their heads, spread their hooves, and ran away.

The fire-shaped shields, the sharp sound of gongs, and the faked rockets finally defeated the war elephants, turning the Funan people's greatest reliance into their nightmare. Looking at the Funan army formation that was rushed to pieces by the mad war elephants, Lu Dai laughed loudly, stretched out his hand to wipe the beads of sweat on his face, and let out a long roar: "Charge-"

The morale of the Wu army was like a rainbow, although they were all hot and sweaty, as if they had just come up from the water, but they were in a high mood, if it wasn't for Lu Dai restraining them to maintain the formation, they would be eager to catch up and slash wildly. The Funan people have collapsed on the verge of collapse, this time is the most painful time to kill, if the first battle is successful, the rich reward is expected, and more importantly, if this battle can completely annihilate the Funan people, the damn war can be over, and there is no need to fight against such a vicious sun.

The roar was like thunder, with the explosion of the gong, and the roaring rockets drove the war elephants and Funan soldiers to rush forward, breaking through the barrier and rushing straight to Fan Chang's Chinese army. The screams of the soldiers and the roars of the war elephants echoed each other, spreading fear to the depths in waves.

Although Fan Chang tried his best, but he still couldn't control the rout of the army, especially the thirty crazy war elephants made him have nothing to do, the Funan soldiers have always been in awe of the power of the war elephants, these powerful weapons that they usually say to defeat the enemy once they turn against each other, the lethality is also amazing, in the face of the impact of the war elephants, the Funan soldiers can no longer maintain their composure, and finally collapse like a flood embankment.

The collapse quickly spread from the rear to the middle army, and then to the front, and the front army, which was about to send foot soldiers to explore the road, heard the chaos behind them, and also panicked, and the generals hurriedly sounded the war drums for instructions, but at this time, Fan Chang had already involuntarily followed the rout, where did he still have the heart to order, and the generals who could not get instructions could only fight on their own, and after a short hesitation, they began to run forward.

The soldiers flocked to the pit dug by the Wu people like a tide, the soldiers in front passed the pit smoothly, but the back ones were not so lucky, after trampling on countless feet, the well-hidden pit began to show dark faces, especially those soldiers who ran with the war elephants, they watched the war elephants step on the cover on the pit and fall into the pit, but they couldn't stop their steps, they were pushed by the companions behind, and they fell into the pit involuntarily, and then they were stepped on by the people who fell in and pressed underneathand can no longer turn over.

At this time, it doesn't make much difference whether they are stepped on by people or war elephants, anyway, the result waiting for them is the same.

The deep ditch with a width of two zhang and a depth of one zhang was quickly filled in a section, and then the Funan soldiers cheered, stepping on the bodies of their companions or war elephants to rush forward across the deep ditch, and the soldiers behind did the same, trying to run towards the lot that had been filled, the limited width was not enough for too many people to pass, and from time to time someone was squeezed into the pit, slowly filled, and became a passage for the successor to survive. And those unlucky soldiers simply ran with their feet, trying to jump over the deep pit, two zhang wide is not impossible to jump, but how can you calmly speed up in the chaos of the army, or use the spear in your hand as support, most of the soldiers fell, and only a few lucky ones escaped.

However, crossing the pit did not mean that they would survive, and in front of them, there were soldiers and repeaters who had already been waiting for battle, and the cold and shining arrows showed a cold light, as if they were ghosts from hell.

Sun Shangxiang gave an order, and twenty repeating crossbows began to roar, and a continuous rain of arrows rushed towards the Funan soldiers who were surging like a tide. The Funan soldiers couldn't dodge, they were shot to the ground, and only a few were really lucky enough to rush to the front of the formation, and the Wu soldiers who were dancing with swords stepped forward and easily slashed in front of the formation.

However, the Funan soldiers have no way to escape, knowing that the front is a dead end, they can only move forward bravely, there is still a glimmer of life in the forward, but it is impossible to turn back, tens of thousands of people plus the crowd formed by the uncontrolled war elephants, it is not at all one or two people can stop, not to mention turning back, even if the pace is slow, it is possible to be trampled to death by the people or elephants behind.

At this time, there is no way to survive without moving forward.

The Funan soldiers were cornered, they went crazy, and they crossed the pit one after another, brandishing swords and shields, and launched wave after wave of attacks on the Wu soldiers who stood in their way. As the first pit was filled, more and more Funan soldiers rushed through the pit, rushed through the slaughter of the arrow array, and rushed to the front of the Wu army There were more and more soldiers.

"Withdraw!" Sun Shangxiang gave an order, and the crossbowmen shot empty arrows, then poured oil on the repeater, lit a fire, turned around and ran.

As soon as the pressure in front of the Funan people was relaxed, they cheered in unison, and then chased after them, but unfortunately, their good luck did not last long, but fifty steps, they encountered a batch of crossbows again, and in front of the crossbows, there was also a pit two zhang wide and one zhang deep.

The same tragedy was staged again, the soldiers who rushed to the front were shot by the crossbow and killed by the soldiers of Wu Guo, who were waiting for work, and the soldiers and war elephants who followed behind fell into the pit one after another, becoming a stepping stone for others, until the pit was filled, and the formation of the Funan soldiers fleeing became smooth again.

The Funan army was blocked to death on this concave position, and 30,000 people were huddled together, and they had nothing to think of except to fill the pit with their lives. Although they knew that turning backwards was the way to survive, the hateful Wu people blocked behind them, driving their war elephants to squeeze forward, leaving them no chance of life. At this time, no one can have the heart to think about how to solve such a problem, they only care about running forward, try not to be pushed into the pit by others, do not be trampled down by the running war elephants, do not become a stepping stone for others to escape, as for how to solve the current dilemma, that is not something they can consider.

Fan Chang, who should have considered this problem, was already stupid, he rode on the back of the war elephant, looking at the army that had become a mess, and wanted to cry without tears, at this point, he could no longer control the army, everyone was running for their lives, and no one had the heart to listen to his orders anymore.

And he can't think of any way to save his army, the only way seems to be forward, forward, and forward, and use human lives to fill the pits dug by the Wu people, he has more than 30,000 people, if the Wu people don't dig enough pits, then they can still escape some people and horses, and retain a little vitality, if the Wu people dig enough pits, then he has only a dead end.

Fan Chang didn't have much choice, he could only follow the rout and rush forward.

After abandoning the third pit, more than half of the Wu soldiers under Chen Shi's command had been damaged, and they were unable to fight again, and they were forced to retreat again and again by the Funan soldiers who had fallen into madness. Although the Funan soldiers were defeated, most of them didn't even have weapons, but they were stimulated by the desire to survive and their eyes were red, regardless of the rush towards the Wu soldiers, even if they had been hit by arrows and injured, they still desperately stepped forward, they slashed with knives, stabbed with spears, hit with their bodies, hugged the Wu soldiers who were blocking their way, bit with their mouths, picked with their hands, used all their potential, and fought for their own way of life.

Wu Guo's soldiers were suppressed by their madness, and in the face of their hideous faces, their military hearts began to waver, and their formations began to loosen, and they were rushed by the Funan soldiers to stagger, and they were about to collapse.

"Auntie, sister-in-law, Captain Chen can't support it." Sun Luban jumped to his feet and pointed at Chen Shi, who was surrounded by the Funan people, and shouted.

Sun Shangxiang smiled slightly: "Big Tiger, do you want to go into battle?" ”

"Yes!" Sun Luban's voice trembled with excitement, and he answered loudly without thinking.

"Training the troops for a thousand years, using the soldiers for a while, I will give you this opportunity today, you bring some people to help your brother fight this battle." Sun Shangxiang turned around and responded: "Fangqing, you take two hundred people to protect the princess." ”

"Whoa." Bai Xuan replied loudly, turned around and led two hundred people to stand behind Sun Luban, and with a hula sound, the battle flag of the Flying Tiger Battalion flew in the wind. Sun Luban suddenly felt a surge of blood rush to her head, her little face turned red, she stood in front of the Flying Tiger Battalion, drew her sword and shouted: "Flying Tiger!" ”

"Flying Tiger! Flying Tiger! The two hundred female soldiers shouted in unison, raised their swords out of their sheaths, and a cold light flashed, and it was mighty.

Guan Feng turned around and said, "Ding Feng, protect the princess and attack with the Flying Tiger Battalion." ”

"Whoa." Ding Feng promised loudly, and with a wave of his hand, a thousand Destroyer Battalion came out. Ding Feng raised his sword, and a thousand soldiers of the Destroying Front Battalion stomped their feet and shouted: "Destroy the front, destroy the front!" "Compared with the roar of the Flying Tiger Battalion, which still has a bit of femininity in its might, the roar of the Destroying Blade Battalion is full of masculinity, which makes people's blood boil.

"Kill-" Sun Luban's voice changed, and under the escort of Ding Feng and Bai Xuan, he began to run. They quickly opened a bloody path and rushed to the front of Chen Shi. Sun Luban's long knife flashed, and he stabbed a Funan soldier in front of Chen Shi to the head, and blood gushed out, spraying her head and face. Smelling the hot smell of blood, Sun Luban was even more excited, he shouted coquettishly, took two steps forward, and the long knife swung a war knife, slashing at the neck of another Funan soldier, dragging it hard, and the handle of the knife had smashed on the face of another enemy.

Chen Shi looked at this petite but unstoppable young general in surprise, and only came back to his senses after a while, he suddenly raised his sword and shouted: "The princess is mighty!" ”
