Chapter 418: Change the formation to meet the enemy

The more than a thousand vine armored soldiers who followed the giant elephant, the vine armor they wore looked very tough. As long as the feather arrows of the Yangzhou army shot onto the vine armor, they bounced out, falling into dust weakly and unable to hurt the enemy at all.

After the first round of arrows, only a few vine armored soldiers were shot by feather arrows and fell to the ground. The soldiers on the battle elephant were killed and the war elephant, while the rest of the vine armored soldiers were not damaged at all. Instead, they accelerated the speed of the rushing and roared.

The occupants were very excited, and the other ordinary soldiers received the instructions of the five-colored flag on the mountain, and followed the battle elephant herd and vine armored soldiers, waving their weapons and clamoring forward.

Xue Zong only felt cold sweat in his palms. He secretly observed Lu Su and felt relieved when he saw that he was still calm. It was the first time he had really seen the elephants of war, and he didn't expect their power to be so huge.

In the Yangzhou army, the school was still commanding the archers to shoot arrows. After three rounds of arrows were shot, the battle elephant that rushed in the front was only fifty steps away from the formation, and the entire army of the occupants suffered extremely minor losses! The school had a cold look, and he could almost see the ecstatic faces of the occupants on the back of the occupants!

"Raise the feather arrow five inches and shoot again!" After all, he had rich experience in the battle. Seeing that ordinary feather arrows could not hurt the war elephants and the vine armored soldiers, the school looked at the black crowd of Zhanren who had already entered the range, and decided to let go of the front army and instead attack the rear army of Zhanren.

This move really worked. After the feather arrows of the Yangzhou army were shot at a higher angle, they just crossed the battle elephants and vine armored soldiers and shot into the formation of ordinary soldiers of the occupants. Most of these ordinary soldiers of the occupants were not wearing armor, and even their clothes were incomplete, and there were no shields for defense. With the sound of tragic cry, hundreds of occupants fell to the ground. They either got arrows in their necks, or were arrows in their chests, abdomen or limbs. The feather arrows splattered countless blood flowers into their flesh, reflecting a brilliant light under the clear sky.

Seeing this, the District Company quickly ordered the soldiers to flap the five-color flag. Someone in the Zhanren Army specially conveyed military orders. Seeing that the five-color flag was swinging horizontally, he hurriedly ordered the Zhanren soldiers to disperse immediately and move toward the two wings of the Yangzhou Army to avoid the attack of the Yangzhou Army.

At this time, the war elephant herd began to accelerate, and their speed was getting faster and faster. The thick elephant feet flew back and forth, splashing countless smoke and dust. Its huge body seemed to suddenly become lighter and more agile. As the war elephant accelerated, all the soldiers of the Yangzhou army felt the earth trembling more and more violently. Every step of the war elephant running was like a muffled thunder in the sky. Many soldiers suddenly felt confused in their ears. Looking at the fierce appearance of the war elephant, they unconsciously began to swell their hearts.

How can a human body withstand the crushing of such prehistoric monsters?

"Don't panic, keep shooting arrows!" the school shouted at the top of his lungs. He felt the panic in his comrades' hearts, but at this moment, retreating means being at mercy. Only by putting life and death outside of the situation can he have hope of survival.

"Swoosh swish swish swish swish swish swish swish!" "Swoosh swish swish swish!" The archers' hands were still stable, although their legs were already shaking slightly due to the shock brought by the war elephant. Because the formation of the occupants became very loose, the effect was greatly reduced after the archery rain poured down in the next few rounds of arrows. However, the occupants almost faced the arrow attack with flesh and blood, which was like a stone hitting an egg. Hundreds of people still howled and fell to the ground.

Eighty steps~50 steps~30 steps~10 steps~

The battle elephant herd was running fast, getting closer and closer to the Yangzhou army's army. Zhao Xiaoniu could tell their distance from the tremor under his feet. At this moment, his heart became less nervous. He remembered a sentence that the generals had said during his training: On the battlefield, only if you are not afraid of death, will the celestial being not take you away easily. If you want to live, you will first seek death!

Zhao Xiaoniu looked around and communicated with the giant shield soldiers and spear soldiers beside him with encouraging eyes. He wanted to tell them that the enemy is also flesh and blood, so don't be afraid. Even if we die, we will die together and will never be alone...

The earth was trembling violently, and the rumbling sound was getting closer and closer. The shouts of the occupants could be vaguely heard in the sound of the wind, and even the sensational long and breathtaking sounds of the war elephants. Finally, the war elephants hit the shield wall with a thousand pounds of force. Although Zhao Xiaoniu was ready to hold the giant shield tightly with his back, trying not to be knocked away by the war elephants, things went against their wishes. When the war elephants ran and attacked, even a mountain of earth could only be trampled on.

Everything happened in an instant. When Zhao Xiaoniu's body flew in mid-air, he saw that on the battlefield, the shield wall carefully arranged by the Yangzhou army had been knocked out by the war elephant herd. The horse-rejecting rifle was an effective weapon of destruction for war horses, but it had little effect in front of the war elephant. The sharp spear tip was mostly just sliding across the rough and thick skin of the war elephant, and did not weaken the attack strength of the war elephant at all. Only a few war elephants were scratched by the spear tips. The pain from the wound made the war elephant even more crazy. The red-eyed war elephants raised their giant legs like stone pillars and then fell down fiercely, stepping the Yangzhou shield soldiers or spear soldiers in front of them into meat mud.

The occupants on the war elephant used the lethality of the war elephant, either with spears or bows and arrows, to be condescending and gaining the upper hand, constantly reaping the lives of the Yangzhou soldiers.

The shield wall was broken, and the vine armored soldiers who followed the battle elephant herd took advantage of the situation and rushed in. The left-handed shield and the right-handed machete were killed in the chaos. At this time, the defense of the front of the Yangzhou military formation had failed. In a very short time, hundreds of elite soldiers fell to the ground seriously injured.

When Zhao Xiaoniu saw this scene, his heartache was as painful as a knife, and a blood mist suddenly spurted out in the air, and then fell heavily into the dust.

Lu Su and Xue Zong stood behind the formation and witnessed the madness of the war elephants and the vine armored soldiers. Although the Jiangdong soldiers were fighting hard, they could not hurt each other. Under the long nose attack of the war elephants and giant legs trampled, Lu Su's heart was bleeding. When did the Yangzhou army fight such a passive battle in recent years? Although he made a lot of preparations in advance, it seemed that he still despised the combat effectiveness of the occupying people.

Change the formation! There is only one way to die if it does not change the formation at this moment!

Lu Su ordered in a deep voice that as the drum beats of the rear army changed, the Yangzhou army quickly changed its formation. The giant shield soldiers and spear soldiers in the front quickly retreated to both sides, while the spear soldiers in the middle line arranged in neat formations and retreated dozens of steps. Where they were originally standing, a long spear was neatly inserted into the ground, and the special wooden support was supported below. The angle of the spear tip was adjusted to point to the weakest neck of the war elephant.

I know what happens next, and listen to the next chapter to explain it.
