Destiny Only Han

Chapter 498 Liu Ying: It's white sugar, I added white sugar!

"It's finally here!"

Han Xin raised the binoculars in his hand and looked at the huge monster coming out from behind the hills in the distance, and he let go of the slightly suspended heart.

This is not because they are afraid of war elephants from the South Vietnam Kingdom, but because of human instinct to worry about the unknown.

After all, at the beginning of the war, it was known that Zhao Tuo would let the elephant soldiers participate in the battle, but he had not seen the existence of the elephant for a long time, and anyone would be a little nervous.

Therefore, when the flag was raised, more than 100 cavalrymen waiting under the shogunate of the Chinese army rode away.

On the buttocks of the horses behind them, there are two boxes hanging on each.

This is the magic weapon that Liu Ying specially uses to restrain the elephant soldiers.

In fact, judging from the written materials and film and television works he has seen, as well as the many games he has played, the war elephant is not as difficult to deal with as he imagined.

The threat of war elephants to ordinary soldiers is actually more of spreading fear. After all, this is a huge monster weighing several tons.

The Persians had imported elephants from Ah San back then, but it was a pity that the elephants did not participate in the battle because they were not acclimatized to Alexander...

So when Alexander was fighting with the third brother, it took a long time to overcome his fear of war elephants. Then in the battle of the Hidaspes River, the third brother's war elephant was frightened by the Macedonians and plunged into his army. In the formation, countless friendly troops were trampled to death...

Later, the Romans even found a way to crack the war elephant, that is, to open the gap, let the elephant rush over, and then use a giant ax to cut off the heel of the elephant...

However, the method Liu Ying chose this time was different from that of the Romans. After all, this was a war.

So he kept his word and chose to scare the elephant away with a violent explosion.

After all, elephants have big ears, and the effect of gathering sounds is very strong. In addition, herbivores are timid by nature, and the effect of kicking is naturally twice the result with half the effort.

The most important thing is that it has not been a day or two since Liu Ying coveted Zhao Tuo's elephant.

Scare away first, catch it back after the battle!

Not to mention anything else, even if it is put in an exhibition in Xinfeng's zoo, a lot of ticket money can be recovered!
A powerful empire must not only be the strongest in terms of military and economics, but also must not lag behind others in terms of entertainment!
When Liu Ying stared at the elephants in the distance with a telescope, Guan Ying, who was rushing towards Yueren, suddenly waved his hands, turned his horse's head and galloped to the left.

A sharp whistle sounded, and the cavalry of the Han army who were rushing furiously was like a wave hitting the river embankment, drawing two circles to the left and right respectively, and then reunited.

At this time, the cavalry of the Han army changed from a linear formation to a conical formation.

The tip of the conical formation pointed directly at those Qin soldiers who had lost their formation due to chasing!
From the very beginning, Guan Ying's goal was the most powerful soldiers of the Qin people in Nanyue Kingdom. The previous pull and detour was to destroy their formation so as to create such an opportunity for themselves.

The infantry fights in formation, combining the strength of thousands of people into one body. This is the greatest advantage and also the greatest weakness.

The biggest advantage of the cavalry over the infantry is that the cavalry is a separate soldier, and it can exert a strong combat effectiveness without forming a formation. Coupled with the charge speed of the cavalry, it can launch a surprise attack from outside the effective fire range of the infantry in a very short period of time.

...

The so-called infantry defeating the cavalry cannot be wiped out, not only because two legs cannot run with four legs, but also because the infantry must disband the formation if they want to chase and flee the enemy, which is tantamount to dissolving most of their combat power.

However, the cavalry scattered without reducing their combat power, and organized a short counterattack casually, they could turn defeat into victory.

So at this moment, looking at the cavalry of the Han army who turned around and rushed towards him, the Qin soldiers had only one thought in their hearts.

escape!
Run away!
They didn't have any fighting spirit in the first place, but now they are facing the iron bumps rushing one after another, and they only hate that their parents gave them two missing legs...

But there is a good saying, they don't need to run past the enemy, as long as they can run past their teammates, when the Han cavalry changes from a group charge to a scattered assault, they will have a way out.

Kneel down please surrender!

Anyway, the one who surrendered was not a foreign race, no shame!

Besides, most of them were relegated from the seven subjects. Although they were both Qin soldiers, they were completely different from those Qin soldiers who only knew how to farm and fight.

People say a century-old navy, but in fact the inheritance of the army is even more rare. After all, the navy is mostly engaged in long-distance combat, and weapons and equipment are more important than fighting spirit.

The army is different. Even in the era when countries and nationalism prevailed in later generations, an army that can withstand huge casualties without retreating an inch is rare.

For example, the Netherlands, which is known as the coachman of the sea, does not dare to underestimate its naval power even if it is in full swing, but after being attacked by the French Chicken Army next door a few times, the Netherlands began to concentrate on planting tulips...

Therefore, looking at the army that was a little shorter than before, Zhao Tuo jumped to his feet and began to scold. If he hadn't been too far away from those cowards at this moment, he would have drawn his sword and chopped off all those bastards one by one!

Zhao Tuo's only hope at this moment is that the war elephant corps, which made a huge roar and advanced like the earth shaking, can play a miraculous effect and defeat the infantry of the Han army in one fell swoop, and then defeat the cavalry of the Han army again with the Yue warriors!
otherwise……

He looked back at the closed city of Panyu. This royal city was expanded on the basis of the city built by Ren Xiao, but because of the lack of experienced engineers, the scale of the city was not large, especially the city wall. The defensive effect is even worse than the Hengpu Pass and other passes built due to the terrain.

If you fail in the field battle, you are afraid that you will also fail in the city defense battle.

So his only retreat is to get on a boat and go to the big island in the south, hoping that the strait between the land and the island can stop the pursuit of the Han army and give him a chance to fight again with the whole army!

So Zhao Tuo turned his eyes to the war elephant in the distance, with a mocking smile on his mouth, looked at Zhao Zhong who was standing beside him with a sad face, and said, "Prince, have you heard such a saying, it is called a mantis arm as a chariot... "

Zhao Zhong shook his head lightly, with unabated worry on his face.

Zhao Tuo pointed to the hills in the distance, and said with a disdainful smile, "Look, there are only a hundred or so riders trying to stop the progress of a lonely war elephant. Do you think it's a mantis' arm as a chariot?"

After he finished speaking, he stroked his beard and laughed loudly.

......................................................

...

"Next, is the moment to witness the miracle."

Liu Ying hugged Wu Chen's shoulders, and handed over the telescope in her hand: "Do you like it? I'll give it to you!"

"Thank you Your Highness..."

"Why is your Highness not His Highness? It's too natural! We are about the same age, so we can just call you brother! So, do you want to be a brother and make you rich..."

When Liu Ying was about to abduct the honest lady next to him, Li Cang, the Prime Minister of Changsha, couldn't stand it anymore, and coughed lightly: "I remember, my crown prince is one year older than your highness, so..."

Wu Chen took the binoculars from Liu Ying with both hands, shook his head and said, "Mother once said that Your Highness is a sage who will not be born in the world. Although I am old, I am willing to serve Your Highness as an elder brother!"

"Okay! I recognize you brother!" Liu Ying patted Wu Chen on the shoulder, pointed to the battlefield in the distance and said: "Let's talk about getting rich later, the fun is about to begin!"

Wu Chen followed Liu Ying's fingers to look over, and saw that the hundred or so riders who ran towards the war elephants of the South Vietnam Kingdom had stopped moving forward. He could clearly see through the binoculars that it was not because people were afraid, but because they were under the crotch. His war horse is unwilling to go any further.

So, good show?

He frowned and continued watching, only to find that the cavalry had resolutely given up riding, lightly removed the wooden box from the horse's back, walked a few steps to the advancing route of the war elephant, and then opened the box and began to fiddle with it.

"Huh? Are those fireworks?"

Wu Chen was full of doubts, and looked at Liu Ying with some uncertainty.

He once went to Chang'an City with Wu Rui to congratulate Liu Bang during the New Year. After the fireworks show started, he watched others set off fireworks at close range, so watching the actions of those cavalry now, he naturally recalled the past.

Just as soon as the words came out, his eye sockets turned red.

There are fireworks every year, but the person who took him to watch the fireworks is gone forever...

Liu Ying smiled, and didn't answer Wu Chen, but gently stretched out her fingers to plug her ears.

The second kicker he brought this time is a more powerful version.

At the same time, Guan Ying, who was busy taking over the soldiers of the Qin people in the distance, suddenly saw a colorful flag raised by Han Xinzhong's shogunate, so he blew the copper whistle directly in his mouth, with a confused look The cavalry of the Han army ran wildly in the opposite direction where the war elephant of the South Vietnam Kingdom appeared, leaving only those Qin soldiers who squatted down with their heads in their arms and were confused.

Not long after, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty who squatted on the ground and probed their brains only felt a whistling sound coming from somewhere, but before they could look around, there was a loud noise between the sky and the earth.

Immediately afterwards, there was a second sound, and a third sound, one after another, one after another.

Although the sound was far away from them, they still felt a roar in their ears, and the shouts of killing that filled their ears before disappeared in an instant, and even the screams from their companions seemed far away in the sky.

On the cloud chariot of the Han army, Han Xin's expression on his face froze, he moved his neck little by little like a puppet, and slowly looked at Liu Ying, who had a flash of surprise on his face, and shouted loudly:
"Is this the second kicker you were talking about?"

"What? What did you say?"

Seeing Liu Ying pretending not to hear, Han Xin just smiled and stopped talking. Anyway, the war elephants in Nanyue Kingdom were either affected by the explosion, covered in blood, or turned around and fled, which could no longer affect the battle situation.

Therefore, if Liu Ying didn't say anything, he naturally stopped asking.

..............................

In the distance, when the explosion sounded, no matter whether it was the Yue warriors or the Han infantry, they all froze on the spot and remained motionless.

The Yueren wizards who were dancing the great gods were also stunned.

Good news, King Lei has appeared...

Bad news, but why were they bombed?
