Chapter 412: The Elephant Soldier Charges
Liu Xingnan criticized Wei Feng as worthless, but saw that he didn't react, so he said: "Sister Julia, if you want to see our Jin people fighting, there is a chance that Xingnan will take you to see your father, Xingnan's father is an important general in the Beifu Army, and he is likely to become the master of the Beifu Army, you don't know the Beifu Army, right?" That was the most powerful army of our Great Jin, which defeated the strongest country, the Qin State, with 80,000 men more than ten years ago, when the Qin State had an army of more than 800,000 people, including nearly 300,000 cavalry."
As if the Beifu Army was opened by Liu Xingnan's own family, he kept boasting to Julia about the glorious war history of the Beifu Army, of course, the failure was not mentioned, such as the time when Liu Gaozhi's entire army was wiped out in the hands of Murong Chui!
At the end, Liu Xingnan added: "Sister Julia, now Xingnan can't take you to see the Beifu Army, because the Beifu Army is temporarily in the hands of the bad guys, but Xingnan's father is lying on the salary to taste the courage, as long as he finds the right opportunity, he will take the Beifu Army, then it's okay, it won't take too long, within two or three years." ”
Although Julia was attracted by Liu Xingnan's boastful history of the Beifu Army, she was reluctant to leave Panyu because she lived a fulfilling life in Panyu.
Julia is a pirate born in the root of the miaohong, although she loves the sea, but after years of drifting on the sea, facing the same scenery every day is also very boring, and in Panyu, she can engage in the shipbuilding industry she loves, and also met many noble women such as Wang Man, Chu Lingyuan, Liu Xingnan, Xie Sister Hua and so on.
In fact, Julia's sense of belonging to Rome is not very strong, and she does not know who her mother is. Her father, who had died in a naval battle when she was very young, had to follow her uncle on the seas, and came into contact with either sailors or pirates, as well as some philistine merchants, who had in common rudeness, cruelty, shrewdness, cunning, and naked interests in their eyes, and human favors were based on money.
And every woman around Wei Feng is warm and sincere to her, and they never think about getting anything from her, they just feel that Julia is alone in a foreign country, and she is serving her husband, so she can't help it.
Arguably. It's a non-utilitarian interaction. It also made Julia feel the warmth of friendship.
The Romans were first concerned about whether they could benefit from each other, and they were indifferent and took advantage of each other, but the Seris were kind and welcoming. Emphasis on righteousness over profit. Julia loved the feeling of heart-to-heart.
One more point in particular. She felt that she and Wei Feng were very good at talking, and that Wei Feng could talk about Roman religion, art, and science, and sometimes with whimsical ideas. But it's not nonsense, as the saying goes, it's enough to have a confidant in life, Si Shi should treat it with the same heart, Julia regards Wei Feng as a confidant, in short, let her leave now, she is still reluctant!
There was a faint tenderness in Julia's eyes, and then she smiled slightly at Liu Xingnan: "Xingnan, thank you, I will consider it if I have the opportunity." ”
Wei Feng's face sank, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Liu Xingnan, this is not how you dig the corners of the wall, you dig in front of me because I don't exist, right?" Let me tell you, Julia is very important to me, and there is only one possibility if you want to trick her into the Beifu Army, that is, in the future, the Beifu Army will be absorbed by me, or I will defeat the army on the battlefield! ”
"Humph! Who wouldn't brag? Liu Xingnan snorted disdainfully.
Julia looked at Wei Feng and Liu Xingnan a little strangely, she couldn't figure out what the relationship between these two people was, if you want to talk about wives and concubines, it's obviously not, if you want to talk about lovers, there's nothing too close to it, anyway, it's just arguing all day long, it's boring!
Shaking her head secretly, Julia put this question aside and asked Wei Feng: "Envoy, although Julia has never been to this country of Linyi, I heard that it is still quite rich, it produces all kinds of treasures and gold, this time you break it, you should be able to get a large ransom." ”
"Huh?" Wei Feng was puzzled: "Lady Julia, what do I want to ransom for?" I want the lives of all the people of Linyi! ”
"You, you, are you here to exterminate the clan?" In an instant, Julia was shocked, this person was more ruthless than the Romans, the Romans conquered everywhere, the purpose was to exploit the local money, enslave the local people to serve the Roman citizens, but this person was good, he killed everything directly, Julia couldn't understand Wei Feng's behavior, in her eyes, the dead were useless, only the living could generate value.
Wei Feng glanced at her and said lightly: "Julia lady, more than a hundred years ago, Linyi was part of my Central Plains Dynasty, and later took advantage of the chaos in my Middle Earth, similar to the situation of your Western Rome, the local natives seized the opportunity to establish their own Linyi country, and often plundered my Jiuzhen Jiude two counties, which has been a disaster for nearly a hundred years. ”
Julia said again: "Envoy, if you kill all the people, won't this land be empty?" Julia, you don't have a lot of people moving here, do you? I'm afraid it will eventually be taken over by other races. ”
"Humph!" Wei Feng sneered: "Except for a few people who are left to open mines, others will be killed if they are killed, inferior races are not qualified to live in the world, in my heart, only the Romans and our Jin are the most noble races in the world, and the rest of the races will either be enslaved or die!" And the people of Linyi have committed a lot of evil deeds, so they must die!
As for the land you are talking about, it doesn't matter if it's empty, I'd rather it be overgrown with weeds and full of wild beasts! I will send people to patrol regularly, if anyone dares to sneak over, hum~~ Then it's no wonder I'm ruthless! ”
Wei Feng's eyes shot a cold light, and his whole body was filled with a strong murderous intent, but Julia's heartstrings trembled, Wei Feng was simply handsome at this moment!
"Look, the people of Linyi have opened the door!" Liu Xingnan suddenly pointed straight ahead!
Julia hurriedly gathered her mood and looked over, and suddenly, her green eyes shot full of disbelief, and she happened to see a row of elephants walking out!
Julia patted her chest and exclaimed, "My God, what a mighty fellow, there are elephant soldiers in the people of Linyi!" ”
The so-called elephant soldier is not exactly an elephant, but a combat unit with the elephant as the center, including an elephant, a cart, three horses and five steps, poisoned in the body, such a combat unit is called a porti, three porti form a senamuk, three senamuk form a selmo, three selmos form a gona, three gonas form a wahini, three washini form a pulitna, and three plitna form a jem.
A Jemu includes 729 elephants and the same number of chariots, 2,187 cavalry and 3,645 foot soldiers, each elephant is four people, including an elephant operator, a spearman and two archers, the chariot is three people, one person driving, one person holding a spear, one person holding a bow and arrow, the entire battle formation has a total of 10,935 people.
With Porti as the basic combat unit, the Linyi army immediately lined up in battle formation when they left the city.
Wei Feng didn't care to pay attention to Julia's undulating E milk that was photographed, and his eyes were staring ahead, at this time, Liu Xingnan hurriedly shook Wei Feng's arm and urged: "General, hurry up and get on the boat, the elephant soldiers can't stop it at all!" ”
Wei Feng smiled disdainfully: "Liu Xingnan, didn't you say that I didn't fight a tough battle?" Today, I'll show you how I broke the elephant soldiers in Linyi! As he spoke, he beckoned.
Miss Chen and Wang Daolian followed and brought two pairs of Mingguang armor, one is Weifeng's, and the other is Julia's, and now Julia is no longer wearing Roman ring armor, but wearing Mingguang armor, she feels that Mingguang armor is more beautiful than Roman ring armor, and it is more powerful, and after a while, the two of them have been neatly draped.
Not long after they were dressed, the elephant soldiers ten miles away on the opposite side were also assembled, and after hearing a whistling, the huge army rushed straight forward!
Don't look at the elephant usually slow, but the speed of running is still quite fast, equivalent to a sturdy man's full run, in the dust flying, the earth has obvious trembling, if you have to describe the majesty of the elephant's charge, it can only be said to be far better than ten thousand horses galloping!
It's just that none of the soldiers in the position have changed color, and they have withstood the test of thousands of galloping horses!
I don't know if it's nervous or excited, maybe it's both, Julia's beautiful eyes ripple with color, her pretty face is flushed, and she sees the elephant array getting closer and closer, and when the forward forward is approaching about three miles, Wei Feng waved his hand violently: "Release!" ”
"Stretch and stretch~~!" A bag of thistle terrestris was projected into the air, and then the cloth bag was blown away by the high air current, and the thistle fell to the ground like rain, these thistles are big and small, small as eggs, as big as an adult man's two fists clenched together, and the barbs are about a foot long!
This is Wei Feng just came to Panyu to hear Deng Yi mention that there are elephant soldiers in Linyi, so he commissioned craftsmen to create a special iron thistle, strong and sharp, because the elephant is not a hoofed animal, its paws are just a thick layer of dead skin, with that ton of weight to step on, iron will be able to pierce the soles of the feet!
The ballista can adjust both the direction and the elevation angle, so the throwing of thistles is also staggered, and a minefield about fifty paces wide is quickly built up a hundred paces in front of the battle!
The time to test the thistle terrestris is coming, everyone held their breath, as the distance got closer and closer, there began to be an elephant operator to find the abnormality on the ground, but the running elephant is more difficult to stop than the horse, just a few breaths later, "woo~~" a sad whine came, an elephant's front feet suddenly knelt down, and then rolled up, the four elephant soldiers on the elephant were crushed into pulp by the elephant before they could escape!
This is the beginning, there are more and more elephants stepping on the thistle, and all of a sudden, the flesh and blood are flying in front of the battle, the sorrow is continuous, and the elephants are rolling all over the ground, and some although the injuries are not serious, but the ferocity has been completely stimulated!
