349 The Great War 9

Chapter 349 Battle Nineteen
Of course Li Ji would not ignore these 2 people, Liu Shili's 1 people rushed over immediately to plug the loophole, which was specially left by Li Ji for them, just to attract the last 2 people.

Just as Shebei Daguan and Nu Shibi led the charge, Li Daozong and Qin Qiong led the infantry formation and marched slowly to the beat of the drums.

Walking to a place within a stone's throw of the Turks, they stopped suddenly and parted a main road from the middle.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" A group of giants appeared in front of the Turkic people with heavy steps.

It turned out that Li Daozong used the sound of drums and the sound of the marching steps of the army to cover the sound of the elephants' marching steps, and used a large number of banners to block the sight of the Turkic people.

The thousand elephants led by Feng Daiwu had long been hidden in Yizhou by Li Daozong as a trump card. This was also one of the reasons why Li Ji decided to fight the Turks immediately.

"Moo!" A thousand tall war elephants, covered with rattan armor, let out a loud cry, and with their long noses raised, they ran under the driving of the knights, and their heavy steps fell to the ground, causing the ground to tremble. Vibrated, the white teeth gleamed.

Some Turkic people may have seen elephants, but so many have never seen them, and they are so tall, like monsters, they are very scared from the bottom of their hearts. Seeing elephants appear, Turkic people have already started to panic.

The war horses had never seen monsters that were much taller than themselves, and the huge neighing sound made them even more frightened. No matter how the Turks comforted them, the war horses were in a mess.

A thousand war elephants lined up as they advanced, pressing down like a mountain, and kept roaring.

Cooperating with the war elephants were 1000 rattan armored soldiers, of which [-] were riders, [-] archers, and [-] sword shield soldiers. They charged forward under the leadership of Feng Daiwu, and Li Daozong and Qin Qiong commanded the army to follow.

The Turkic people who came to block the troops in the city were old and weak. Although they were cavalry, they could only stop them, but the appearance of the war elephants had already made these people into a mess.

"Swipe! Swipe! Swipe!" The elephant soldier archer started first.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!" The Turkic people who were already in a mess were still on guard. Many people were shot and screamed.

"kill!"

"kill!"

Li Daozong and Qin Qiong saw that this opportunity was rare, and they didn't want to settle for many formations. They immediately shouted and led the army to rush forward quickly.

The war elephant rushed into the Turkic people, all the way on the rampage, and those who stood in front were knocked away. If they fell to the ground and were trampled by the elephant's legs, it would be too miserable. Many elephants would not die immediately. Will slowly wait for death in various strange postures.

Others were trampled on the arms and thighs, which were completely crushed fractures, and they kept crying while lying down...

Cavalry who stay still are inferior to infantry. They are not as flexible as infantry, and they do not have long weapons and cannot reach infantry on the ground.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty rushed into the crowd of Turkic people, just picking up heads. They only needed to wave their weapons to reap the harvest. The chaotic Turkic people had no power to fight back.

Facing the terrifying war elephants, many women and children were the first to collapse. The monster-like war elephants were really unacceptable to the Turkic people. Running over without moving, the long teeth are so terrifying, and the thick nose can make people fly.

Almost massacred by the Tang Dynasty, the Turks quickly collapsed and fled in all directions. Many soldiers of the Tang Dynasty grabbed their horses and started chasing and killing them.

Feng Daiwu commanded the elephant soldiers to continue to charge towards the crowded place, and the archers in the elephant soldiers were all excellent hunters selected from Lingnan and trained. They were all masters of bow and arrow. Find the target, almost one arrow at a time.

And the one-thousand-sword shield soldiers exist as guards, covering the archers' attacks, killing the living along the way, and not giving the archers a chance to hurt, especially those injured by war elephants, they must make up for it, prey , Don't worry.

Feng Daiwu led the elephants and slowly chased the Turkic people. Qin Qiong and others were also far away from them. The main thing was that the elephants rushed into the battle, and the image left on them was too deep. It was almost irresistible. It's Qin Qiong who is brave and brave, and doesn't want to get too close.

Although the group of people couldn't catch up with the Turks on horseback, they still chased them down, drove the Turks far away, and took advantage of the situation to occupy their camp.

Leaving the elephant soldiers to guard the camp and take the prisoners, Li Daozong quickly ordered his men to gather the horses in the Turkic camp, intending to bring the cavalry back for help.

"I've met Duke Yi!" Feng Daiwu walked up to Qin Qiong who was waiting and saluted.

"Good boy! Awesome!" Qin Qiong praised with a smile.

"Hey! You've won the prize!" Feng Daiwu said with a smirk and rubbed his head.

"The old man is not talking nonsense. Although he is not as good as your second brother, he can gain a foothold in the army with the elephant soldiers alone." Qin Qiong glanced at the war elephants in the distance and said with a little emotion.

You must know that elephant soldiers are not like cavalry soldiers. They can be carried by any general. They must be trained and commanded by special personnel. This is Feng Daiwu, and it can also be said to be unique to the Feng family.

Being able to control such a huge force alone cannot be underestimated by anyone, which is why Qin Qiong sighed.

Facing Qin Qiong's compliment, Feng Daiwu didn't know how to answer, but just smiled honestly.

"Wu Guogong is so lucky. Your brothers are not comparable to ordinary people." Qin Qiong thought about Feng Daiwen and his brothers, and felt that the Feng family was deeply rooted. At least their generation had a stable position in Datang, and there would be no mistakes.

"Brother Huaiyu is also very good. He already sits in one side. The second brother often asks us to learn from him." Feng Daiwu raised his head and said.

"Hey! Watch carefully, the old man is leaving." Qin Qiong was also very happy when he heard that someone beat his son, and seeing that the cavalry had assembled, he gave an order and set off on horseback.

Li Daozong and Qin Qiong collected nearly 5000 war horses, plus personal guards, a total of [-] people, and rushed towards the main battlefield.

Ten miles away, we will arrive soon, and before we get close to the battlefield, we find that there are Turkic soldiers approaching, and quickly command the army to meet them.

It turned out that when they defeated this part of the Turkic people, someone found it on the distant battlefield, but they didn't know the situation, and then everyone chased and killed them, and there was no one outside the city gate, which made the Turkic people panic.

Although the war elephants did not affect the troops on the cavalry battlefield, and the cries of the war elephants were covered by the huge shouts of killing, the tall figure of the war elephants was still spotted by many people. You must know that many of the women and children are family members of the cavalry , How to make people feel at ease.
