This battle, even Shan Yao himself was a little embarrassed to think that it was really not a wonderful battle, but it did break the coalition army's attempt to regain control of the edge of the dense forest area, because the rush had not yet formed a joint force, the coalition forces did not give full play to their numerical advantage, but they never thought that they lost this opportunity, and they lost the opportunity to win back this game forever.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of defeating the coalition army, Shan Yao immediately dug trenches and fortifications in an all-round way, hoping to delay one more day, and now he has no idea where the road of the engineer troops will be opened, so he can only do his best to drag this war on, and the longer the time is delayed, the better.

The armies of the three coastal city-states came quite quickly, and it was obvious that the archons of these cities were very clear-headed, and once Li Wufeng's army swept in, the fragile alliance of the Peninsula Alliance was constantly devouring the land in the west, and there was a stronger enemy in the east than the Pasha people's appetite and ambition, anyone could think that the survival of the Peninsula Alliance was already facing a huge challenge. Therefore, they can't help but come to the rescue, if they can firmly seal the Tanghe people north of the dense forest area, then the danger of the Peninsula Alliance will be much smaller, once they break through the dense forest area, especially in the Principality of Sulawesi, then the entire eastern countries of the Half-Great Alliance will never be at peace.

The Moro City Republic, the East Samoa City Republic, and the Three Treasure City-States each sent 25,000 troops, of which the number of the self-defense forces of the three cities was 60,000, and the mercenary troops were also as high as 15,000 people, which can be said to be pouring out, and the three cities mobilized almost all the means of transport that could be used, so the time of arrival was only two days later than the arrival time of the army of the city-state of Legon, and the 6,000 troops of the Principality of Bali arrived at Yada City at the same time. The coalition forces, which had already figured out the actual strength of the enemy, quickly assembled and prepared for a war to completely solve the Western Xinjiang Army, which had already built temporary fortifications on a large scale in the southern part of the dense forest area and was ready to fight a protracted war, with the strength of the coalition army approaching 120,000 people, facing the Western Xinjiang Army with only more than 20,000 men, no matter who could predict the outcome of this battle, there was no suspense. No matter how strong the military strength of his Western Xinjiang Army is, no matter how brave his Gaoyue soldiers are, but with one enemy and five, this huge disparity between forces cannot be made up by blood and courage.

Shan Yao also expected this, he had a feeling that the Fourth Army should also rush out of the dense forest area in these two days, but the question is whether he can hold on to these two days, the fortifications and trenches have been built along the defensive area in three echelons, Shan Yao knows that this is a battle that determines the fate of his division and even the entire Southern Expedition Campaign, if the Third Division can withstand the opponent's attack and hold on until the arrival of the Fourth Army, then everything will be dispersed, and once lost, the entire area along the northern edge of the dense forest will be occupied by the coalition forces, and the Fourth Army can only face layers of defensive enemy troops when it rushes out of the dense forest areaThe exhausted Fourth Army Corps could not deploy its own army, and could only be firmly strangled by the enemy in the dense forest, and it was already a luxury to be able to retreat to Burma.

The coalition forces are also aware of the urgency of completely resolving the forces in front of them as soon as possible, and it is obvious that the Tanghe people are already taking measures to pass through the dense forest area, and this force that drilled out of the Dahengduan Mountains is firmly holding here in order to win a base for the main force to rest and breathe, and this is absolutely intolerable to the coalition forces, once the other party's intentions are succeeded, the consequences can be imagined, the swarming Western Xinjiang army will crush the entire peninsula alliance countries, so they must nip this possibility in the bud。

Dama, the commander of the garrison of the King City of Sulawesi, was immediately pulled down from the position of commander of the coalition army, in fact, with the severity of the first battle, the coalition army also knew that as soon as the marshal of Sulawesi [***] was killed, I was afraid that there would be no more generals who could support the overall situation, and Su Mu, the general of the Moro City Republic, replaced Dama as the commander of the coalition army, and the 120,000 troops were divided into three waves and took turns to charge the third division that held its position.

Since there was no cavalry on both sides, the elephants began to arrive one after another, although the deep trenches dug by the third division in the early stage did not play a big role in hindering the infantry charge, but the march of the target soldiers was very affected, the soldiers had to jump down the trench to fill in the trench first, so that the elephants could pass through, but once this kind of activity fortress passed through the gully, it would pose a great threat to the defending troops in the phalanx, and the coalition forces also knew this, so they let the stormy javelins pour on the soldiers' heads, but they still firmly and step by step to fill the trench, once the trench was completely filled, with these hundreds of giant elephants and the war drums of the coalition soldiers sitting on the giant elephantsNo matter how strong the infantry phalanx of his Gaoyue soldiers was, they could not resist the ravages of the giant elephants, and the coalition generals could even imagine the sight of these enemies scattering and fleeing under the hooves of the giant elephants.

However, the generals of the coalition forces may have forgotten one point, since this enemy army knew that the elephant soldiers were a special type of troops of the Peninsula Alliance, and the general infantry defense line could not resist the charge of this type of troops, why did they still dare to arrange a semi-arc defensive ring here, and the people of the Western Xinjiang never fought unprepared battles, which they seemed to ignore. It's just that in this situation, almost no one would think of this, and they were all full of hope that they could break through the opponent's defense line with the elephant soldiers, and then the 100,000 troops that followed up could completely annihilate this lone army in the Western Frontier without much effort.

It should be said that the commander of the coalition army, Su Mu, is a rather cautious and sober-minded general, he knows the martial courage and strength of the Gao Yue soldiers, and the coalition soldiers will pay a very heavy price if they want to break the defensive formation of the Gao Yue people with their own frontal map. There was nothing wrong with this plan on the surface, and it was unanimously agreed upon by the other officers of the coalition forces, who all wanted to show the invaders from the north the tactics peculiar to Indochina, but they underestimated the cunning and ferocity of the enemy.

When the enemy's infantry soldiers frantically opened the way for the tall and mighty giant elephant regardless of casualties, Shan Yao knew that it was time to use a killer weapon, these giant elephants had thick skin and thick meat, and they were also wrapped in thick armor in the vital parts, except for two eyes, there were almost no weaknesses, and it was undoubtedly unrealistic to kill and injure the eyes of the giant elephant on the battlefield, and the ordinary parts, whether they were bows and arrows or spears, projected on the opponent's body would be equivalent to the extent that thorns scratched a Chengren's skin, and it was difficult to work, even if the elephant could be poisoned to death immediately with highly poisonous poison, I am afraid that the more than 100,000 troops that followed would drown their positions, but it all seems to be planned.

When the enemy spear throwers on the opposite side carefully changed into a small throwing gun, the coalition soldiers who followed behind the elephant soldiers were all happy in their hearts, and saw that the trenches were filled in one by one, leaving only the last few deeper trenches, and the coalition soldiers who had become accustomed to this kind of trench filling operation became more and more proficient, and thousands of soldiers worked at the same time, and it would hardly take ten minutes for a trench to be completely filled. They were all carefully shielded with their shields, while the elephants waited peacefully for the moment when the ditch was filled, under the command of the servants on their backs.

Wave after wave of throwing spears swarmed towards the giant elephant, and this time the Western Xinjiang Army seemed to have changed its tactics, no longer targeting the soldiers who were hiding behind the giant elephant and slowly advancing forward, but directly attacking the giant elephant itself, but what kind of damage can such a small throwing gun do to such a behemoth as the giant elephant? After learning of this situation, the generals of the coalition forces who were in the rear all laughed at the stupidity and poor skills of the Tang River people, perhaps the Tang River people had reached the point of desperation, and they could only make a crazy desperate bet.

The coalition generals, who thought they were aware of this change, ordered their armies to form up and advance steadily, and when the giant elephant troops broke through the enemy's defenses, they could completely bury the enemy. Only the commander of the coalition army, Su Mu, noticed some of the strangeness, the enemy still stubbornly insisted on the positional defensive battle in this situation, although he hoped to hold on to a base area, but in the face of the fall of the position, the entire army will fall into the surrounding situation, which makes Su Mu miss the IQ of the opponent's main general, either the other party's main general has a determination to die, or the other party has another conspiracy, otherwise with the marching speed of the Gaoyue people, it is completely possible to rush out of the encirclement before the coalition forces are encircled, although they have lost control of the edge of the dense forest, but at least they have preserved their strength, and they can also use the tenacious combat effectiveness of the Gaoyue soldiers to transfer to the western Hengduan Mountains to continue to fight with the coalition forces。

But at this moment, although he was suspicious in his heart, he couldn't think of what kind of anti-heaven power the other party could turn the current situation around, although he was a little unsteady in his heart, but as the boss, he could only use reason rather than intuition to make a decision, all the coalition forces divided into three divisions were assembled according to the attack echelon, no matter how tenacious and fierce the Gao Yue people were, the huge gap in strength would completely send them into the region, Su Mu firmly believed this, and no one could change this situation at this time.

But what will happen next will be like a nightmare haunting all the coalition generals who participated in this battle, and no one can believe their eyes, they can't believe what is happening in front of them.
