Chapter 1088 Kill
However, the elephant’s trunk was wearing chain mail, and it was extremely difficult to pull out the feather arrows, which were as thin as sticks for the elephant.
On the city wall, the first group of crossbowmen fired rockets. While squatting down and dipping their arrows into kerosene to nock their arrows and draw their bows, the second group stood up alternately. The rain of arrows was like a giant net, rushing out in the hundreds and thousands, like a stream of fire setting the sky above Pingyang City on fire. The flames lit up one after another in the snowy night sky, as if it were daytime…
Before those huge monsters could stand firm, a rain of flaming arrows came with a whistling sound. Even though the elephants were wearing armor, countless flaming arrows whistled over and hit the armor and fell off. However, the arrows were carrying kerosene, and the kerosene would immediately catch fire as soon as it touched the wild animal skins that the Tianfeng Kingdom had given to the elephants to wear.
The giant elephant shook its head wildly, almost throwing the Tianfeng general off. He quickly picked up the bone whistle hanging on his chest and blew it continuously. The elephants that were in a mess seemed to be under a spell and gradually stopped running around. It seemed as if the injuries on their bodies were gone. It seemed that the burning fur on their skin could not be sensed. They turned around and retreated…
The elephant trainers sitting on the giant elephants were busy using clothes to put out the fire for the elephants that were still moving.
Li Tianfu, whose face turned pale after being frightened by the giant elephant, was still in shock. She held the armrests of the seat tightly with both hands, watching the ceiling being pierced by a flaming arrow. The arrow just passed over her head and pierced into the wood supporting the four corners of the ceiling…
Fortunately, there was snow on the ceiling, so the fire did not start. The arrow feathers passed through the snow on the ceiling… and the flames with kerosene were extinguished. But the rain of arrows continued, and who knew when it would take her life.
After the giant elephant turned around, it ran very fast, trampling the soldiers who were running on two legs, and ran backwards regardless, almost knocking Li Tianfu off again.
The soldiers who received the order to retreat ran wildly in the snow. Those who slipped were trampled by their comrades, and those who were unlucky were crushed into meat paste by the giant elephants.
Li Tianfu held tightly onto the wooden pillar of the ceiling and looked back at the city wall that was continuously firing rockets. She saw with her own eyes that the flaming arrows kept hitting the giant elephant in armor, unable to penetrate the armor and fall down. However, the blue flames with oil were burning on the armor, but because there was nothing flammable attached, they were extinguished by the large flakes of snow.
She clenched her teeth, the only sound in her ears was the whistling wind and snow, her face and hands were blown red, she turned around and shouted: “We have withdrawn from the range of their arrows! Why don’t you stop?! Bai Qingyan is standing on the Pingyang City Tower, this is a good opportunity, we can use the giant elephant to hit the gate of Pingyang City, as long as we go in, we will definitely be able to capture Bai Qingyan alive! If you go back now, you are a coward and a failure! Capturing Bai Qingyan will be a great achievement! Only then can your Tianfeng Country gain a foothold!”
The general of Tianfeng State who had been blowing the whistle could understand what Li Tianfu meant, but he also knew that Li Tianfu was a madman who only wanted revenge!
The gods had already warned him that he should have retreated at that time and should not have been greedy! The emperor of the Great Zhou brought troops with him this time. Although it is not clear how many troops the Great Zhou brought, if you think about the dark mass seen from afar at the Four Kingdoms Alliance today, it is definitely not a small number!
The Tianfeng Kingdom came to help Xiliang get Li Zhijie back. In addition, it was winter, so they had not made any preparations for war. It would be too hasty to start a war rashly, and thirty elephant soldiers might not be very useful.
“kill–”
“kill–”
Just when the general of Tianfeng Kingdom made up his mind to ride a giant elephant and lead his soldiers to retreat without paying attention to Li Tianfu, torches with flaming flames suddenly lit up in the heavy snow on the east side, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
Cheng Yuanzhi, who was galloping with his cavalry in the distance to block the way to Tianfeng Country, heard the sound and turned back to look in the direction of Pingyang City. He saw a continuous rain of flaming arrows, like countless meteors, flying out one after another, and heard the sound of elephants roaring through the night. He shouted, “Set off fireworks!”
Sima Ping, who was following Cheng Yuanzhi, was unable to open his eyes due to the wind and snow. He responded by pulling out the fireworks from his chest and shooting them into the sky…
“Swoosh—bang—”
Red fireworks rise into the sky.
Upon receiving the order, the 15,000 soldiers of the Bai family army reined in their horses and turned around in the dark.
The strongest Ferghana horse of Rongdi was sweating all over as it ran in the heavy snow. Its whole body was steaming with heat and it was breathing heavy white breath.
Cheng Yuanzhi rode to the front of the team and shouted loudly: “Light the fire!”
The soldiers of the Bai family army, riding on their horses, took out their fire starters and lit the torches they carried with them.
The general of the Tianfeng Kingdom, who was retreating with the elephant army and soldiers, suddenly saw torches suddenly lit up in the distance like a fire dragon with no end in sight. He opened his eyes wide and shouted loudly: “Stop!”
Thirty giant elephants slowly stopped.
Li Tianfu’s eyes lit up, his excitement overflowing from his words: “See! With Bai Qingyan’s intelligence, she has long seen through your Tianfeng Kingdom’s intentions! For someone who can overthrow the Jin Dynasty and ascend the throne, how could she be a soft-hearted fool?! She will never give your Tianfeng Kingdom a chance! If you can’t catch Bai Qingyan at such a good opportunity today, your Tianfeng Kingdom will never gain any benefits from the Great Zhou and Great Yan alliance!”
The general of Tianfeng State who came with the elephant army gritted his teeth.
“We are not far from the city wall yet. Bai Qingyan must have ordered all his troops to come out to intercept us! As long as we can let the elephant army break through the city gate, we can capture Bai Qingyan alive, and we will have a chance of survival!”
Li Tianfu saw that the general of Tianfeng Kingdom was still hesitant, and understood that the general was worried about the instructions of Sar Khan before coming, so he only helped Li Tianfu to get people and not to fight. He said anxiously: “Now it is Bai Qingyan who took the initiative! You had no choice but to start a war. Your Majesty will not blame you! Today I brought 6,000 soldiers, and your Tianfeng Kingdom only has 30 giant elephants and less than 100 soldiers. What are you afraid of! We Xiliang people are fighting and risking our lives to capture the Great Zhou Emperor Bai Qingyan alive for your Tianfeng Kingdom!”
The general of Tianfeng Kingdom raised his eyes, gritted his teeth and blew the bone whistle again. Upon hearing the sound, the soldiers of Tianfeng Kingdom who were controlling the giant elephants turned their elephants’ heads around.
Li Tianfu, who was sitting on the back of the giant elephant, noticed that the elephant turned around. He showed a look of ecstasy in his eyes and shouted, “Turn around! Attack the city with all our strength!”
“Good men of Xiliang are protected by the gods!” Li Tianfu suddenly stood up from the giant elephant, his eyes surging with madness, and he shouted hysterically in the wind and snow, “Today, the army of the Great Zhou Emperor has come out in full force, trying to strangle us outside the city! The troops in the city are empty, this is the gods protecting our good men of Xiliang! Let our Xiliang warriors rush into the city and capture the Great Zhou Emperor Bai Qingyan alive, and avenge our dead fathers and brothers! Gods are above! Let the giant elephants break through the city gate for us! Capture the Great Zhou Emperor alive! Kill!”
