Chapter 724

“Come here, immediately order people to dig up the dikes on both sides and let the sea water in.”

After thinking of the way to deal with the enemy’s war elephants, Ning Yuan immediately asked him to dig the dikes on both sides of the coast.

Now the Thai-Burmese coalition has cut a large amount of logs from the rear. If you want to use logs to build a passage, without watering, this trench will become a simple obstacle.

Although letting seawater in can not prevent the enemy from building log passages, at least after soaking in water, it will be much more difficult for the enemy to build log passages.

Because a large number of war elephants were injured by crossbow arrows, the Thai-Burmese coalition did not send war elephants to carry logs in the next few days.

They used sand to build a slope on the opposite bank, pulled the log up the slope by human power, and then rolled the log down the slope, allowing the log to fall directly into the gully filled with seawater.

Facing this stupid method of the Thai-Burmese coalition forces, the Condor Army south of the trench was helpless. They could only use the trebuchet to cause as much trouble as possible for the opponent.

As a large number of logs rolled down into the trench, a simple passage formed by the logs was formed.

In the ensuing time, the Thai-Burmese coalition was bombed by the trebuchet of the Condor Army and threw sandbags full of sand on the log.

After paying a certain amount of casualties, the Thai-Burmese coalition forces successfully built a passage tens of meters wide.

When the passage was built, the Thai-Burmese coalition immediately dispatched the elephant army, and the Condor Army also set up all the ballistas on the other side of the passage.

In order to protect the elephants, the Thai-Burmese coalition forces let a heavy infantry backing a shield walk in front of the elephants, and asked them to block crossbow arrows for the elephants.

Under the cover of heavy infantry, most of the crossbows fired by the Condor Army were blocked by the heavy infantry.

Although the heavy infantry all vomited blood after blocking the crossbow arrows, they at least successfully protected the elephants behind them.

After approaching the trench, the mission of the Thai-Burmese coalition heavy infantry was completed.

They quickly flashed to the sides, and then handed over the remaining tasks to the War Elephant Corps.

After the heavy infantry gave way, the elephant slaves immediately drove the elephant to charge towards the position of the Condor Army.

At the same time, the ballista positions of the Condor Army also fired the final round of crossbow arrows.

After the loss of a few war elephants, the Thai-Burmese Union Army’s War Elephant Corps successfully passed through the passage built with logs and sandbags.

After seeing the elephants passing through the passage, the soldiers of the Condor Army who were in charge of firing crossbow arrows immediately dropped the ballista and fled to the east and west along the earth wall.

Looking at the war elephants that successfully passed through the passage, a smile appeared on the faces of the high-ranking officers of the Thai-Burmese coalition army.

However, before they were happy for a while, there was a painful sound of elephants in front of them, and the smiles on their faces disappeared.

After the elephants climbed onto the earth wall, they saw the Condor Army soldiers waiting in line behind the earth wall, and the elephant slaves immediately drove the elephants towards the other side.

However, as soon as the war elephant walked off the dirt wall, it suddenly staggered and then slid into one pit after another.

There is a thick wooden board in the deep hole. There is a big hole on the wooden board that can only accommodate elephant’s feet, and there is still a deep hole under the hole.

In the deep hole under the plank, there is a sharp iron cone with the tip upward and embedded in the bottom of the hole.



Because of the smooth pot-shaped slope around the pit, the elephant slid down directly after falling into the deep pit, and then an elephant foot accidentally slid into the small hole inlaid with iron cones and was directly penetrated by the iron cones.



Because the elephant’s body is heavy, and the sharp iron cone penetrates its feet, it can’t extricate itself. In an instant, it has to lie down on the ground.

Although this trap could not kill the war elephants, it succeeded in limiting their actions. Then, if no one rescued them, they would have to starve to death in the pit.

The method used by Ning Yuan to deal with elephants is called elephant shoe catching method in ancient China. The elephant’s feet are penetrated into the trap and called “shoes.” The iron cone below is the so-called elephant shoe.

Although the “shoes” elephant can’t turn its body, it can still hurt people with its tusks and nose. So at this time, it still can’t get close to it, but it’s holding it.

After several days of hardship and torture, the “shoes” elephant lost too much blood because its feet had been pierced by iron cones, and lost the power to counterattack.

At this time, people rushed forward, adding swords and axes, and the elephant died.

In order to deal with the elephants of the Thai-Burmese coalition forces, Ning Yuan directly ordered a large number of elephant shoes to be placed under the earthen wall.

When the enemy’s elephant army rushed down from the dirt wall, it was impossible to stop the car, so they fell into the elephant shoes covered by thatch.

For those elephants confined by elephant shoes, Ning Yuan did not hurt the killers. He just ordered people to shoot the elephant slaves, and then immediately let his own war elephant army rush to the soil along the reserved safety line. wall.

After the elephants of the Condor Army boarded the dirt wall, the elephants of the enemy and ours immediately collided together.

At this time, the Eagles soldiers who had fled in front of them who operated the ballistas also returned. After installing the crossbows, they fired frantically on the elephants of the Thai-Burmese coalition army.

More than half of the war elephants of the Thai-Burmese coalition fell into the elephant shoes, and the remaining war elephants immediately became live targets for ballista attacks after being withstood by the condor army’s war elephants.

Seeing heads of war elephants being pierced by crossbow arrows, the hearts of the senior leaders of the Thai-Burmese coalition army were bleeding, but at this time they had nothing to do, because they had no idea how their war elephant army was on the other side of the wall. It was wiped out by the enemy.

Without knowing how the Condor Army would deal with the elephants, they couldn’t come up with countermeasures, so they could only let the heavy infantry corps rush up again to cover their own elephants and withdraw.

Although they know that they will retreat at this time, they will probably be defeated, but they really can’t bear to lose any more war elephants, so they can only hope that the Condor Army will not win the battle.

Unfortunately, their expectations are destined to fail, because what Ning Yuan is best at is to beat down dogs.

When the number of war elephants on his side had the absolute upper hand, it was absolutely impossible for Ning Yuan to allow the enemy to just withdraw.

After seeing the enemy trying to retreat, Ning Yuan immediately ordered the Condor Army’s Elephant Corps to kill along the passage built by the enemy.

Other Condor soldiers used ladders and other tools to pass through the trenches, and directly followed behind the elephant army to beat down the water dogs.

Facing the battle elephants of the Condor Army, the Thai-Burmese coalition could not come up with any good solutions, so they had to sacrifice a player army to go to the rear of the palace, and the others all evacuated to the base camp located in the rear.
