Chapter 909: Bombardment of War Elephants! (Addendum 7/100)

The 400,000 ancient Indian army has already launched an attack, chariots and war elephants galloping, under the cover of more than 100,000 infantry, storming the defense line of the Han army!

The rain of arrows covered the sky, and the iron-armored war elephants braved the rain of arrows to advance, like a copper wall, and ordinary crossbow arrows could not even break through the defense!

The chariots that rushed to the front tried to break down the phalanx of the Han army with their impact force, but what was waiting for them was a large number of crossbow arrows produced by Chutian during this time!

The divine arm bows equipped by Jianyan crossbowmen and Wei Wushu fired ten thousand arrows at once, and many chariots were shot into hedgehogs by crossbow arrows, and the soldiers on the horses and chariots were shot through by random arrows and fell to the ground! The dumped carriage rolled over the infantry between the chariots, and the huge inertia pressed the infantry to the ground and rubbed it, the internal organs were broken, and the death was terrible!

Behind a thousand chariots was a terrifying army of war elephants, the earth trembled, and the dirt piled up on the side of the trench shook off!

The Silver Spear Warrior rarely encountered a war elephant army, nervously clenching the spear in his hand, sweat dripping to the ground.

Rumble!

Suddenly, with a loud bang, white gunpowder smoke filled the air, and twenty solid bullets fell into the chariot and the war elephant legion, and the huge kinetic energy shattered the chariot and killed the war elephant!

A war elephant was hit by a solid bullet, let out a wail, and fell to the ground with a bang, crushing and wounding a dozen low-ranking infantrymen!

Solid bullets bounced among the infantry covering the war elephants, and the flesh and blood of the infantry who were hit along the way were blurred!

The huge recoil force caused the bronze cannon to fall backwards, and the gunner had to pull the bronze cannon back into place, clean the chamber, and reload the solid shells.

Hundreds of large bed crossbows used to siege and defend the city made the sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the air, and a meter-long crossbow arrow shot out, piercing an ancient Indian chariot and penetrating the soldiers on the second ancient Indian chariot!

The destructive power of the large bed crossbow at close range is also extremely amazing, not only the penetrating power, but even the impact force is enough to rupture the internal organs of the soldier inside the armor and die!

A giant crossbow bolt pierces the body of the war elephant, and blood splatters!

Bang bang bang!

A dense burst of arquebuses rang out, and the arquebusiers of the Shenji Battalion had a defensive line built on the side of the trench by the silver spears to resist the enemy troops, and fired three shots at the ancient Indian army in a hurry.

The ancient Indian chariots rushed in front of the Han army and found that there was an almost impassable trench, and the silver spears and the army held silver spears and formed a dense phalanx of spears to block, causing the chariots to fall into the trench and all capsized.

Even if the chariots charged the Han army along the passage between the trenches, they could not break through the spear phalanx of the Silver Spear Army.

The Silver Spear Army resisted the onslaught of the ancient Indian army.

Solid bullets, buckshots, and crossbow arrows were fired in unison, and the roar of cannons, arquebuses, and crossbow arrows sent war elephants and chariots into panic.

In particular, the Legion of War Elephants, the most important of the Moon Protectors, was terrified by the sound of firearms and the shouts of killing that echoed throughout the battlefield, and even the elephant slaves who trained the war elephants could not contain the increasingly agitated war elephants.

"The war elephants are getting out of control!"

Some skilled elephant slaves have sensed that the behavior of war elephants is a sign of extreme unease.

Firearms have a terrifying effect on enemy troops, and war elephants are sensitive to the movement of firearms and are on the verge of getting out of control.

Not only the war elephant legion, but also the infantry and cavalry of the ancient Indian legion were also deterred by firearms and bed crossbows, and their morale was declining at an accelerated rate.

Although the number of the Han army was less than that of the 400,000 ancient Indian army, the sudden burst of damage from various long-range weapons caused thousands of ancient Indian infantry, chariots, and war elephants to fall in front of the Han army.

"Use the fire camel!"

When the offensive of the ancient Indian army came to a standstill, the Han army released a large number of camels!

Each camel had hay on its back, and the hay was lit and burning!

The Han army did not hesitate to use red-hot soldering irons to beat the camels, forcing them to scurry in the direction of the ancient Indian army!

A thousand panicked camels were forced to rush towards the dense ancient Indian army, which meant that after the Han army blocked the first round of the ancient Indian army's first offensive across the mountains, it could not wait to carry out a counteroffensive!

The Hongyi cannon is still roaring, the solid bullets are fired every two or three minutes, and in less than an hour, three hundred solid bullets are poured out, and more than a dozen feared war elephants are directly killed by the Hongyi cannon, and the ground shakes when it falls!

At the same time, thousands of large crossbow arrows were consumed!

Firearms, arquebuses, bed crossbows, and divine arm bows fired at the ancient Indian army at any cost, destroying the formation of the ancient Indian army, while at the same time, thousands of fire camels rushed around, causing the ancient Indian war elephant army to collapse at an accelerated pace.

With the passage reserved between the trenches, the Iron Cavalry rushed out, followed the fire camels, and fiercely smashed into the most chaotic gaps of the enemy army!

Xue Rengui took the lead, dragging Fang Tian's halberd, Fang Tian's halberd danced, harvesting the low-level infantry of ancient India like harvesting!

Dozens of low-level infantry in ancient India were picked up by Xue Rengui, and they were powerless to fight back!

These low-level infantry of ancient India were originally cannon fodder used to protect war elephants and consume the enemy's physical strength, they were born in a lower caste, they did not have decent armor, and they were no harder than paper in front of the fierce generals of ancient China.

Xue Rengui rushed into the low-level troops and slaughtered all sides, only his own physical strength could be limited!

"Mulan, Siphias, each lead a team of light cavalry, outflank the two flanks!"

Chu Tian sent two cavalry generals to bypass the trench and flank the ancient Indian army!

Chu Tian has experienced a hundred battles, and his use of cavalry has been perfected, and the Moon Protector King, in the eyes of Chu Tian now, simply doesn't know anything about cavalry. Let's look for books

Times have changed.

Thousands of camels were sacrificed, the Iron Cavalry completely destroyed the ancient Indian army in the front, the light cavalry carried out a flank attack, the war elephants and the ancient Indian cavalry were hit by artillery and muskets, and it was the fire camels and the Iron Cavalry that were impacted, they were dominated by confusion and fear, there was almost no room for maneuver, and they had to turn around and flee, but they disrupted the huge infantry formation of ancient India.

Dozens of huge war elephants finally couldn't bear the irritation and fell into a rage as they retreated, trampling the infantry that followed them.

Ancient Indian infantry trampled into flesh by war elephants, hundreds!

Indian spearmen and archers on the back of war elephants were thrown off by the rampaging war elephants and trampled to death in the chaos!

"No, they're completely out of control!"

Seeing such a terrible scene, the elephant slave turned and fled, the power of the war elephant after the rage was unmatched, even the super heavy cavalry would be overwhelmed by the raging war elephant!

After the 400,000-strong army fell into disarray, the raging war elephants went on a rampage without direction, and the casualties were still increasing, and more and more war elephants were gradually losing control due to panic.

Hua Mulan commanded 15,000 Han cavalry, while Siphias led 14,000 Byzantine cavalry, detouring from left and right to designated positions, flanking 400,000 ancient Indian troops.

Wu Qi's Wei Wushu and the Silver Spear Xiaojie Army also crossed the trench and assaulted the ancient Indian army from the front.

The number of the Han army is clearly small, but it drives the 400,000 ancient Indian army like a sheepdog, and constantly cannibalizes the ancient Indian army when forcing the 400,000 ancient Indian army to retreat!

The ancient Indian army was completely out of control, and even the Moon Protector and his vizier Kodiliya were unable to regroup in the chaos of the battlefield.

It is naturally best to crush the opponent with the advantage of troops, but the larger the force, the more difficult it is to control once it gets out of control.

Even Han Shin Baiqi could not restore order immediately after the collapse of the million-strong army.

The shortcomings brought by the crowd tactics are obvious, not to mention that the Moon Protector brought 900 war elephant legions that were simply uncontrollable after they got out of control.

The defeat was like a mountain, and the 400,000 ancient Indian army was defeated again and again!

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Moon Protector and Kautilya retreated on war elephants in the rear, and the 400,000-strong army was routed and returned to the main city.

The cavalry of the Han army is exhausted, and they are chasing and killing in the rear!

"Sure enough, the legendary kings of the classical era, their troops are too ancient, and if they are not equipped with more cavalry and firearms, they still can't compare to the lords of the main world......"

Summer Liang saw the defeat of the Moon Protector King and fell into deep thought.

The number of cavalry of the Moon Protector King was obviously insufficient, and he could not compete with Chu Tian, who was the best at cavalry combat.

Caesar and other lords of the classical era in the Overworld have realized this, so they have absorbed legions from other civilizations to supplement the lack of Roman legions, and Constantine will no longer be troubled by the lack of heavy cavalry after absorbing the Knights Hospitaller and Byzantine heavy cavalry. Absorbing the Genoese Crossbow Legion can make up for the lack of ranged troops.

Alexander absorbs the Hunnarian light cavalry.

The legendary kings of the classical era on the battlefield of national warfare lacked elite cavalry and firearms, as long as they attacked their weak ......

"The solid bullets that have been accumulated with great difficulty have been exhausted."

Although Chu Tian defeated the Moon Protector King's army of 400,000, he was distressed by the solid bullets that he had managed to accumulate.

All 300 solid shells were used to deter the Elephant Legion and disrupt the formation of the ancient Indian army.

Xia Liang, as the commander of the firearms legion, was checking the attributes of the twenty Hongyi cannons: "Not only the consumption of solid bullets, but also the durability of the Hongyi cannons are consumed. One of the Hongyi cannons has been scrapped, and the other 19 Hongyi cannons are not in good condition, and maybe they will be blown up in the next big war. ”

"There are too many restrictions on firearms."

"The early artillery was inherently problematic, but despite this, it was still the most powerful firearm in Lords."

Cool hand spread in summer.

Seeing Xia Liang's deliberately helpless expression, Chu Tian wanted to bully her.

"Ahem...... The top priority is to hunt down the Moon Protector. ”

Chu Tian ignored the durability loss of the Hongyi cannon, and first got the benefits that were about to arrive.

……

Oda Nobunaga's army was still on the way, and the Tsukigo King had been defeated, and Oda Nobunaga, who received the news, was stunned.

The Moon Protector King had an army of 400,000, but he was overturned by Chu Tian in a battle and was defeated!

"Is this the strength of the suzerain?"

Oda Nobunaga had beads of sweat the size of soybeans running down his forehead, and sweat was oozing from the palm of his hand holding the famous knife "Pressing Cut".

He fought with the Moon Protector King not long ago, and the Moon Protector King's vast crowd tactics made Oda Nobunaga a little uncomfortable, but Chutian's quick defeat of the Moon Protector King shocked Oda Nobunaga.

If he claims to be a man of the world, then the emperor of the suzerainty is probably the sky.
