"So I don't have to chase after them,"

"Blow open a breach,"

"I chopped them all down with one axe stroke each."

Chapter 1807 War Elephants Attack

Xu Guanzhong said, "It seems the Yue people are prepared to fight us to the death in Yongzhou."

"Blow open a breach,"

"The Yue people will definitely block it with their troops."

Hou Jian laughed and said, "Don't fry it, don't fry it."

"I just saw hundreds of elephants in the city from the air,"

"It should be the war elephants of the Yue people."

"We'll use spaceships to bomb elephants,"

"Just startle the elephant herd."

"Hundreds of elephants went berserk,"

"We can definitely raze the city to the ground."

After Hou Jian finished speaking,

Everyone was stunned.

Just thinking about that scene is terrifying.

There are many wild elephants and tigers in Lingnan.

Although the army traveled mainly on official roads,

However, wild elephants and tigers could still be encountered occasionally on the official road.

During that time, we also saw a wild elephant that had gone berserk.

They charged straight at the army.

Until his body was riddled with arrows,

He collapsed in front of the army.

The cavalry charge was awe-inspiring.

But when elephants charge, the earth shakes.

Its power was even more terrifying.

That's true god-slaying.

Kill the Buddha if he gets in my way.

All obstacles in our path will be leveled.

Li Kui clapped his hands and shouted, "Good, good!"

"It would be more satisfying to let the elephants trample those black monkeys to death."

"No, I want to go up to the spaceship to see it,"

"It would be interesting to see an elephant stepping on a black monkey."

Xu Guanzhong sighed, "If it weren't for the Yue people taking all the people in the city to the Yue Li Dynasty,"

"This plan cannot be implemented under any circumstances,"

"Hundreds of elephants went berserk,"

"I'm afraid everyone in the city will be trampled into mincemeat."

Sun Lidao asked, "Wouldn't doing this be against the natural order?"

Li Kui couldn't understand Sun Li's words.

But knowing he intended to stop her, she glared at him and said,

What is Heaven and Harmony?

Zhao Yuan shook his head and said, "War is inherently against the natural order."

"And there is no need to show pity to the Yue people,"

"Think about the tragic state of Guangxi Road."

"What did those people who were burned to death and plundered do wrong?"

"Guards! Build a platform eight zhang high!"

"I want to watch the Yue people perish."

"Huang Xin, Han Tao, Peng Qi,"

"You will lead your troops to the west, south, and north of the barbarian camp,"

"We must not allow the barbarian soldiers to break through."

To the east of the barbarian camp is Yongzhou City.

The three men accepted the order and left.

The deputy commander of the army also advanced to a point several dozen feet above the city wall and set up a high platform.

The thirty-six chieftains saw that the Liang army had divided its forces to surround them.

They were so anxious they didn't know what to do.

To break through,

But seeing the menacing cavalrymen around him, he lacked the courage.

The swarm of insects has no leader.

They argued for a while longer.

They were still arguing as the Liang army surrounded them.

In Yongzhou city,

Li Qiande also led his generals up the city wall to observe the enemy's situation.

Seeing the well-organized troops below the city,

They were also secretly glad that they hadn't prepared for a field battle with the Liang army.

With thousands of deputy corps members working together,

Soon a platform eight zhang high was built with wooden planks.

The platform above is three zhang long and three zhang wide.

The city wall of Yongzhou was only three zhang high.

Zhao Yuan led his generals up to the high platform.

The situation in the city was then laid out before them.

The six missile silos have also been erected.

At Zhao Yuan's command,

Six spaceships then took off.

It flew from a height of several tens of feet towards Yongzhou City.

Ruan Ping'an saw the spaceship heading towards the city wall.

He hurriedly said to Li Qiande, who was observing the battle,

"Da Liang is probably going to bomb us with spaceships again,"

"Please, Your Majesty, descend from the city walls to take command."

"This humble general may remain."

Li Qiande also knew that he was the ruler of a country.

"Don't take unnecessary risks," he nodded.

"Alright, then the city wall is yours to keep."

Li Qiande has just left the city.

Then they saw the spaceship fly over the city wall.

No fire bombs were dropped.

Instead, it flew towards the city.

"Ow!"

A deep, guttural roar came from the city.

It was as if an elephant was greeting a spaceship.

Li Qiande heard the elephant's roar.

His expression immediately changed.

He leaped onto his horse and galloped towards the city wall, shouting as he did so.

"Order all soldiers in the city to run to the city walls,"

"Da Liang is going to bomb the elephant herd."

Elephant troops were the strongest fighting force of the Viet Ly Dynasty.

Although the Viet Ly Dynasty had many wild elephants,

But elephants have an astonishing appetite.

Given the national strength of the Viet Ly Dynasty,

They could only raise a few hundred war elephants.

After the army retreated to Yongzhou,

Li Qiande specifically ordered the demolition of all the houses in one neighborhood.

Used to house these hundreds of elephants.

They prepared to use war elephants to deal with the Liang army.

But today, the decision was suddenly made to defend Yongzhou to the death.

I couldn't think of these war elephants for a moment.

If the fire and thunder of the Great Liang were truly as loud as thunder, then...

That was enough to frighten the war elephants.

Imagine hundreds of elephants running rampant in the city.

Li Qiande was also terrified.

I originally thought that holding out to the death was a brilliant strategy.

Looking back now, I realize that I was completely wrong.

They didn't drive all the war elephants out.

That would undoubtedly be courting death.

Chapter 1808 Chaos

Actually, keeping elephants in the city...

They also couldn't find enough food.

After retreating to Yongzhou,
