Chapter 217 Running War Elephant!
"Well, the children of the Liang family, I'm really tired of living. I actually want to fight with the governor in the field. Anyway, I'll let you know how elite our Xishan Army is now."
"Ereme? It does look a little similar, but I don't know if it is. By the way, Mr. Ding, I have another thing to tell you. I don't even carry cannons. With these 3,000 people, I can beat your five thousand so-called elites with blood and disgrace. Do you believe it? Anyway, I asked Guiren City to open the gate and put a suspension bridge. If you have the ability, you can rush to the three thousand people of me.
For Liang Pengfei's big words, Ding Kesheng spit on the ground contemptuously and smiled ferociously: "Well, well, Ding has been on the battlefield with my Majesty for decades. Since more than 20 years, no one has dared to say such a thing to me. You are the first one. In this case, of course I will be satisfied. Your wish."
Liang Pengfei didn't say anything, but Ding Kesheng, who was roaring loudly, gave a thumbs up, which made the soldiers and generals of Ding Kesheng's two sides, who were roaring, stunned and collectively lost their voices.
However, Liang Pengfei's other hand took the reins. In the process of turning to the hand of the horse under him, his raised thumb slowly began to go down, and finally, he poked down fiercely... Although this representative surname action with great insulting the surname appeared in the eyes of these people for the first time, it did not replace it. It shows that they don't understand the meaning of insult and contempt.
"I will definitely kill you! Remember, when I cut off your head, it will definitely be used as a chamber pot. Ding Kesheng was almost mad. If those generals and his own soldiers hadn't stopped his way, maybe Ding Kesheng would have rushed to fight with Liang Pengfei, a shameless man, directly. Who made this guy's behavior too arrogant and insulting?
Liang Pengfei's subordinates couldn't help grinning, and his general's movements were really relieved.
"Your Excellency, why do you provoke Na Ding to win?" After retreating behind the soldier, Sun Shijie whispered to Liang Pengfei.
Liang Pengfei jumped off the horse, pulled out a fire, and smiled at Sun Shijie and said, "Anyway, it's boring to be idle. It's better to tease that guy."
After getting this answer, Sun Shijie reached out and touched his heart. Fortunately, he was very strong. With such a master, it seemed that he really needed a strong heart to live longer.
--------------------
"The whole army is in the front, and the elephant soldiers are the vanguard. It is necessary to break the battle at one time." At this moment, the Xishan Army opposite, Ding Kesheng shouted loudly and ordered the team to line up. From time to time, he looked up at the Qing army opposite, as if he was afraid that his opponent would suddenly disappear.
He was really extremely angry. His opponent looked down on him so much that he dared to fight with his 5,000 elites with a thousand sailors and 2,000 new recruits, which really made him feel that he had been greatly humiliated.
That's the point of person? Although the soldiers here have been on the road for several days, after all, they are all elites. How can they be afraid of a group of newcomers who have not even seen the color of blood?
Even if there are a thousand sailors escorting, please, this is the ground, not the sea, let alone the warship. The array tactics of the sailors are useless on land.
Therefore, Ding Kesheng made up his mind to break through this group of enemies and rush into the city in the chaos. Perhaps, it is not certain that he can take back the Guiren City within today.
Thinking of this, he felt that his body, which seemed to be a little numb because of the fatigue since these days, seemed to be rejuvenated. He shook the sword in his handshake. He was confident that he could easily cut off one or twenty heads of the other party without gasping.
The terrain in the north of Guiren City is not wide, and it can even be said that it is a little narrow. On the left is a long high slope, and on the right is a hill. Between the two, there is only a width of about one mile, and the narrowest part is even less than half a mile. The length is not long, that is, it extends about four miles from the city gate. If 5,000 people are here, it is indeed a little crowded, but there are a few more layers. It's almost the same, and in this way, his hundred elephant soldiers can give full play to the power of biological tanks, which is the most gratifying for Ding Kesheng.
The distance between the two sides is only two and a half miles. Such a distance is for the Xishan Army with 100 elephant soldiers and 500 cavalry, and this is the best impact distance for a cavalry. Even infantry, they don't need to run too far. They just need to follow the elephant soldiers and cavalry and charge forward with the elephant soldiers. The impact and shock of the knight can definitely solve the arrogant people on the opposite side.
Liang Pengfei looked at the three thousand soldiers. The first row was five hundred soldiers with big shields, the second row was the soldiers with spears, and then, the thousand elites under his hands. Their weapons were the muskets in their hands, and the two rows behind stood loosely, even leaving a distance for acceleration. It's for those bombers.
After many consumptions of the wooden handle grenades brought by Liang Pengfei, there are only more than 5,000 left. However, it is completely enough to deal with the elephant soldiers and cavalry of the other party.
Lie Yu still radiated the heat that was enough to dry the human body's water unscrupulously above his head. The wind gently brushed the battlefield between the two armies weakly. The barren grass gently swayed with the wind, and the nameless wildflowers hung their heads listlessly, as if it was difficult to stand such heat.
Hissing... With the shocking roar, the war elephants finally took their heavy footsteps. Every step, if the drumstick hit a huge war drum, the earth trembled with it. The power brought by a hundred war elephants was almost comparable to thousands of troops. After the battle elephant array, the five The hundred cavalry are tightening the reins and letting the war horses on their bodies follow these giants. Naturally, behind them are those Xishan infantry, cling to the swords and accompanied by the order, bravely moving forward.
Liang Pengfei looked at the Xishan Army on the opposite side with a kind of overwhelming momentum, but he still bit his cigar head quite leisurely, and the expression on his face was not at all nervous.
Those long-long-sold Liang soldiers are taking this opportunity to check the guns and ammunition in their hands. Their expressions are also loose, and the movements in their hands seem careless but accurate and fast.
However, the expressions of the recruits in the first and second rows were much more solemn. Although they raided Guiren City this morning, they also rushed to kill them, but it was beating each other, and the pleasure of beating the water dogs made them feel that the war was not the same thing. Now, when the two armies are in the wild, lined up and ready to get the naked white knives into the red knives, the shortcomings of psychological quality are revealed.
--------------------
When those war elephants roared, even the formation was slightly loosened. If it hadn't been for a long period of strict training, the tactical action would have almost become their instinct. The harsh military method was like a big sword hanging high on their heads, and the instructors stood beside them, with a relaxed look. How can these soldiers keep their bodies in the best posture to resist the impact of the other party, and how to avoid the key points and cause a lot of killing to the other party at the same time. This kind of example made them feel much more at ease, and the team returned to normal after a short period of time.
A hundred war elephants were getting closer and closer. At this time, an order came. The hundred war elephants seemed to have been stabbed in the buttocks. They roared wildly and began to step away the rough and strong elephant legs and strode towards this way.
Hissing, roaring, the sound of drum-like footsteps and the roar of the elephant resounded throughout the battlefield. Their running posture gave people the illusion that even the city wall would be easily destroyed by them.
At this time, with the order, the bombers standing at the end of the array had broken the cap of the grenade in their hands and stared at the running war elephant in front of them.
The earth is trembling. Every step will leave a deep footprint on the soft soil. Grass crumbs fly all over the sky. The long swords tied to the tusks of the war elephants seem to be the extension of their horrible fangs, emitting the cold light of chestnuts. It can be imagined that they only gently swing their heads with them. The strength to destroy wood and gravel can definitely flirt with people.
The Annan people on their backs made strange screams, and the war elephants under them flew their legs, which were comparable to siege hammers. Their dark and thin faces showed ferocious to the extreme, mixed with blood-eating excited smiles.
Three hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred steps, one hundred steps. At this time, Sun Shijie, whose face was full of nervous sweat, waved the order flag with all his strength.
Two hundred and fifty wooden-handled grenades were suddenly thrown vigorously from the rear of the battle array, rolling in the air, drawing strange arcs, which could fall 20 or 30 steps ahead of those war elephants.
Before the other party could react, a ball of orange and red fire rose up, and the heinous explosion almost made people lose their hearing.
The knights who were running forward with the war elephants instantly felt that there was only a ball of flame left in front of them, as if the fire tongue had licked their cheeks.
The war elephants were frightened by the fire and explosions on the battlefield. A ball of fire is the most feared thing for all animals. Although these war elephants have also experienced battle arrays and have a certain resistance to the sound of shelling, the power of the explosion of more than 200 grenades, not to mention the mentally retarded animals, even if It's a person, and I'm afraid few of them dare to rush in desperately.
Therefore, the biological tank originally arranged by Ding Kesheng to destroy the Qing army array has become a nightmare in the heart of the Xishan Army...
