Chapter 617: Skillfully Breaking the Elephant Array
After the elephant ran, it was very terrifying, the thick elephant's legs hammered the earth, making a deafening roar, the stirring smoke and dust soared into the sky, the earth was trembling, and the heart of Jing Jun, who followed Chen Zhi to stand on the front line, was also trembling. Facing the thunderous oppressive elephant team, even Chen Zhi was at a loss.
In front of these behemoths, no matter how brave the generals and troops are, the steel spear in Chen Zhi's hand trembled for a while, although he didn't know how he could resist the crazy onslaught of the war elephants with these three thousand flesh and blood, but when he didn't receive the order to retreat, he would definitely not retreat half a step.
"Raise your guns! Immovable as a mountain! Chen Zhi shouted loudly, the spear formation is the only effective way to resist the cavalry impact, but for these behemoths, Chen Zhi has no bottom in his heart, but the spear formation is also the only trick that Chen Zhi can think of, at this critical moment, Chen Zhi can only discharge the spear formation to make the last resistance.
These Jing soldiers have experienced a hundred battles, well-trained, although they are frightened but not chaotic, Chen Zhi's military order, but only a few breaths, the dense forest of spears will be assembled, the cold light of the spear tip from the gap in the shield straight out of the brush, dense, constitute an insurmountable barrier.
Zhu Rongchun looked at the elephant's back sincerely, and couldn't help but laugh secretly, sneering, these Han soldiers obviously have not tasted the power of war elephants, just a gun array to stop the impact of war elephants, it is simply a pipe dream, a group of elephants running crazy completely ignore a qiē obstacle, can crush a qiē thing in front of them.
In the Jing army's main formation, Zhuge Liang saw that the barbarians were using war elephants to attack at the beginning, so he immediately ordered Ming Jin to collect his troops, relying on Chen Zhi's 3,000 men and horses could not stop the attack of war elephants at all, this kind of senseless sacrifice was worthless.
Chen Zhi heard Mingjin's voice and couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. Immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops. Hearing the drum and advancing, Mingjin retreating, ordering must be carried out, this is the most basic element of an army, if you don't advance when you hear the drum, Mingjin will not retreat. Even if you win the battle, you will still be punished by military law. Before the sound of Mingjin sounded, Chen Zhi had already had the determination to die, even if he fought to the point of a soldier, he would never take half a step back, at this time, Mingjin sounded, Chen Zhi was immediately relieved.
The Jing army advanced and retreated like the wind, and the queue was clear, and an order was given. After a moment, it has retreated cleanly. Behind them were newly dug trenches, but they were not connected, and as Chen's army retreated near the trenches, they snaked and twisted around the trenches. Return to the Roots.
Zhuge Liang calmed down and watched as the elephant team had rushed to the front. With a wave of the feather fan, he ordered: "Release the vole!" ”
Thousands of voles were packed in hundreds of cloth bags, Zhuge Liang specially arranged a battalion of soldiers to take care of them, and at this time, under an order, hundreds of soldiers walked like flies, bypassing the trenches. Coming to the forefront, the elephant team is less than a hundred feet away from here. One by one, the bags were opened, and countless voles were imprisoned all night, and at this time they regained their freedom and immediately scattered in all directions. The entire forward position was densely covered with fleeing rats. With the instinctive fear of humans, voles mostly flee in the direction of elephants, for voles, people are the greatest natural enemies, and elephants are their delicious food.
Rats are afraid of humans, but elephants are afraid of these little rats, especially the tide of rats, elephants can trample a tiger or lion to death by stomping their feet, but elephants are a little powerless in the face of rats jumping up and down. In particular, once a rat gets into an elephant's ear, it can be fatal to the elephant. A mouse is not terrible, what is terrible is that a large group of rats come up and bite wildly, and ants bite more elephants to death, not to mention mice that are larger than ants.
The elephant soldiers no longer obeyed the command of the elephant soldiers, and fled in all directions, at this time the elephants were not enough to control the out-of-control elephants with only a small rein, and many elephant soldiers were thrown out of their backs by the elephants, and fell to the ground, and their brains were splashed on the ground. Some elephants collided and trampled on each other, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
After Zhu Rongchun went to war, Meng Huo also led the barbarian soldiers out of the city to respond, looking at Zhu Rongchun on the back of the elephant with a majestic face, Meng Huo was also very proud, and his woman was really extraordinary. The customs of the Yi people are different from the Han people, and the good women in the eyes of the Han people should be a good wife and mother who live in a simple place.
But Meng Shu's pride has not passed, the battlefield is changing, he is far away, naturally he can't see the rats scurrying around on the battlefield, only to see the originally neat and consistent elephant team in an instant crazy mess, many elephants actually rushed towards their own position, rampage, the brute soldiers who were stepped on immediately became a mess of meat, and the brute soldiers were in chaos.
Meng Shu didn't care about anything, and looked nervously at where Zhu Rongchun went.
Maybe it's because Zhu Rongchun's mastery skills are superb, maybe it's because her balance is good, and she didn't fall on the back of the crazy elephant. But the elephant she was riding did not turn around and run back to her own position, but rushed straight to the position of the Jing army.
In front of the Jing army's position, there were countless deep and wide trenches, which were dotted but orderly, and whether the infantry or cavalry were careful, they could completely bypass these trenches. But for elephants, the body is huge, and even if there are elephant soldiers to control it under normal circumstances, it may not be able to bypass these trenches, not to mention that the crazy elephant's brain will not turn sharply at all, and the elephants that rush to the front of the trenches will fall without exception. The bottom of the pit was covered with countless spikes, and once the elephant fell into the pit, together with the elephant soldiers on its back, they were immediately pierced by the spikes, and they were killed on the spot.
Zhu Rongchun saw the trench pit several zhang wide in front of her, and also saw the spikes with metallic luster at the bottom of the pit, she knew very well that once she fell into the pit, she would definitely die without a place to be buried. But the war elephant under her seat was running wildly on all fours at the moment, and there was no sign of stopping, and it rushed towards the trench without hesitation.
At the critical moment, Zhu Rongchun gritted her teeth and resolutely jumped off the back of an elephant several feet high, her body was light, and she rolled lightly on the ground the moment she landed, so that she did not break her leg. As soon as Zhu Rongchun landed, the war elephant had already crashed into the trench with a bang, and then there was a terrible and muffled cry, obviously the war elephant had been stabbed by spikes, and the weight of the elephant, once it fell into the pit, even if there were no spikes at the bottom of the pit but a round-headed wooden stick, it could also pierce its body.
Zhu Rongchun secretly wiped the sweat from her forehead and secretly screamed luck, but before she could stand up, another crazy elephant was already roaring, mercilessly raising the elephant's legs comparable to a big pillar, and stomped down towards Zhu Rongchun's head. Zhu Rongchun couldn't dodge, closed his eyes, and secretly screamed: "My life is over!" ”
At this moment, a snow-white war horse rushed out of the oblique thorn, like a gale, and immediately a white-robed and silver-armored general shouted, and the silver spear in his hand pierced the sun like a white rainbow, and a shot pierced the palm of the elephant's foot. The war elephant screamed in pain, and reluctantly pressed all the strength of his body on the injured foot. This is quite a terrifying weight, the silver spear is also in a bent state under the heavy pressure, the white robe will be full of red faces, and with a loud cry, the breath runs through the arms, and the elephant is flipped to the ground.
The elephant crashed to the ground, stirring up a lot of dust and smoke.
Zhu Rongchun was dumbfounded, overturning the elephant with one shot, how much innate divine power does this need, and then look at the white-robed general, rich as jade, handsome and elegant, so handsome that it is impossible to recover. For a moment, Zhu Rongchun seemed to have forgotten where she was, forgot her mission, she got up from the ground with the happiness of the rest of her life, and threw a grateful glance at the white-robed general, her lips opened lightly, and she was about to say thank you.
The white-robed general looked as cold as ice, and ordered his subordinates in a deep voice: "Come on, tie me up!" (To be continued......)
