Chapter 1900 Like entering a deserted place
Qu Ruhai urgently ordered: "The column will be cleared, quickly!"
The rake has many teeth, and the raked ground is loose and has grooves. The original intention of this order was to let the Luodian army disperse into small teams and not gather in one place to deal with the impending collision.
No one dared to confront these elephant monsters head-on, no one.
However, these monsters may charge forward for a while but are clumsy in turning around. The Luodian army must first avoid their frontal attack, and then wait until their momentum is exhausted, so they can stab and shoot arrows at the buttocks of these moving targets.
But in the darkness and smoke, there was still the sound of thundering hooves.
There are cavalry!
Of course there were cavalry, Qu Ruhai was not surprised, but his heart was even heavier. Since the giant elephants were leading the way, there had to be cavalry to follow up and fill in the gaps in order to maximize the results of the battle.
But the shouts of these cavalrymen were deafening, not at all as quiet as the black-armored army in front of them.
When the smoke and dust could no longer stop them, the people of Luodian were surprised to find that these were not the Black Armored Army at all!
The people wearing dark yellow armor and holding bright scimitars are from the Kasha tribe;
Wearing light leather armor, but with shoulder armor that is either blue or black, and some with irregular stripes, they are from the Longye tribe.
Their shoulder armor is not made of leather or metal, but the shell of a kind of oversized beetle that is abundant in the local area. It is also called a deck. It is hard enough to block knives and guns, but also extremely light.
This is a characteristic of the Longye tribe. Some Longye people even use the long whiskers of beetles to make whisker whips. Luo Dian also jokingly calls them the "insect shell tribe."
But now, the people of Luodian saw that they were so ridiculous that they could not say anything, but were filled with hatred.
These are accomplices of the tiger!
In a blink of an eye, the herd of elephants crashed into the side of the Luodian army.
The scene was like a huge wave hitting the shore, splashing a sea of blood!
Although the Luodian army had dispersed to avoid the monster, the consequences of this collision were even more tragic than Qu Ruhai had imagined, because the Luodian people did not know that an invisible air wall would be generated among the charging elephants. Even if the Luodian people avoided the elephant monster, they could not avoid the collision of the air wall.
When He Lingchuan tamed the herd of elephants, the monks of the Illusion Sect suffered a great loss from this move, let alone these Luodian soldiers?
First, people were thrown to the ground, and then they were crushed into meat paste.
Although the Luodian army had Yuanli, the gap in individual strength between the elephant monsters and human soldiers was too great, and the Yuanli could not make up for it at all.
Some Luodian cavalry were smart and rode away, but before they could run a few feet, a handful of sticky silk nets suddenly sprayed out from the woolly mammoth's body and pulled them directly off their horses!
When everyone looked closely, they found that some of the elephants were covered with long-legged spiders with black spots, but they were hiding under their long fur and it was dark, so no one noticed them during the first few encounters.
After they catch a Luodian person, they first quickly wrap themselves into a cocoon, and then bite their prey to inject poison.
This is not a burrow spider, but a phantom spider from the northern forest. The three nests of spiders originally had three leaders, two of whom were eaten alive by Aunt Zhu in a duel, leaving the remaining one to lead the group of spiders.
The name of the phantom spider comes from the fact that its venom has a strong numbing effect, which can make its prey confused or hallucinate. Dong Rui used this venom to make a painkiller, but the spider venom itself is very potent, and weaker humans may even die from the high.
Luodian soldiers have their energy to protect them and are not affected by illusions, but after being severely weakened by the spider venom, it can still make their muscles and minds relax a little, which means they can't concentrate.
This is not the end yet. The people of Luodian discovered that there was the shadow of a monster behind the giant elephant.
Wolves, bears, tigers and leopards, in astonishing numbers, rushed past the Kasha people without any conflict. There were even dozens of giant wolves that looked familiar, with white spots on their foreheads. Qu Ruhai recognized them at a glance. They were also the northern wolves in the Beiyuan Forest.
Could it be that Emperor Jiuyou also subdued the monsters in the northern mountains and forests?
This is irrational. If the monsters in Beiyuan were easy to deal with, Youzu would have moved in long ago, and there wouldn't be so many uninhabited areas.
I haven't seen him for just a few months. How much has he done?
Just then, a wild boar as big as an ox rushed towards him, covered with a thick layer of mud. The soldiers around him shot three arrows in a row, and the last arrow hit the eye, knocking the big guy down.
At present, the Luodian army was temporarily divided into five or six parts by the giant elephants and enemy cavalry. Although they had experienced several major battles in Yao State, they had never faced such an enemy formation. They were temporarily overwhelmed and suffered heavy casualties.
Qu Ruhai calmed down and took command.
The Great Emperor Jiuyou used an elephant formation and a group of monsters as his special forces, charging through his own army as if they were in an empty space, which really frightened the enemy.
No wonder He Xiao dared to set the battlefield in the open field. It turned out that this kind of terrain was more conducive to the charge of giant elephants.
If it were any other army, they would probably be defeated at the first blow and would never be able to organize an effective resistance.
But Luodian is different!
Even though the situation was chaotic and his side seemed to be in a very pessimistic situation, Qu Ruhai still believed that he had the advantage. The reason was very simple:
He has many soldiers!
Our well-trained army has more than 35,000 people, while the two opposing teams, including elephant soldiers and monsters, have a total of only 4,000 to 5,000!
The eight-fold difference in military strength was not something that could be made up by the giant elephants and the monsters. This must be the shortcoming that He Xiao was trying hard to cover up, which was why he sent out the elephant soldiers at the beginning of the game to take the lead.
After enduring such an attack, the Luodian army was in chaos and retreated, but they did not collapse!
The Luodian people are the best warriors on the wilderness. They are tough and brave and will not be intimidated by temporary difficulties.
When the giant elephant's momentum is exhausted and it is forced to turn around, the Luodian army can start counterattacking!
Therefore, Qu Ruhai's orders were passed down one after another, all aimed at reorganizing the formation and reshaping the military front.
His opponent also has a fatal weakness:
Yuan force.
The energy of the Luodian people is extremely strong in the entire Shining Golden Plains. Originally, only the Yao Kingdom could be compared with them.
However, the army of Emperor Jiuyou, this seemingly powerful mixed army of monsters and humans, does not have the light of Yuanli.
The two armies had just fought for less than two rounds, and the outcome was still unclear; but once the battle reached a stalemate, the effect of the Yuan force would immediately become apparent.
The less consumption, heavier defense, and greater resistance to magical powers and spells, the more likely you are to last longer.
With these two advantages in hand, Qu Ruhai was very determined to fight.
The only thing that made him a little uneasy:
The black-armored army in the north was lined up in front, not moving at all, let alone taking advantage of the chaos to launch a charge. Otherwise, if their army was attacked from the front and flanks at the same time, it would have been even more chaotic.
He looked at the Jiuyou Emperor on the hillside. His figure was like a sculpture, and the Black King under his seat only flicked his tail a few times.
This guy is observing the battlefield calmly. Does he have any backup plan?
Emperor Jiuyou dared to confront the Luodian army led by Qu Ruhai head-on with only four or five thousand people. Doesn't this show that he is very confident that he can fight and win?
