Suddenly, Junjun's exclamation came from the sea of consciousness, "Huh? There is kerosene on this wood."

Wood with kerosene?

Song Jinxiu was startled. "Junjun, get out of there quickly. It's dangerous."

"Yeah, I guessed it. The 18th Route Army must be causing trouble. Let me guess, is it a trap? A pit of fire? That's fun."

Song Jinxiu also guessed that there must be something going on here, and maybe she would just happen to catch up with a big battle.

"How long will it take to get there?" Song Jinxiu asked the scout.

"Your Highness, if we walk from the middle of the mountain, we will arrive in a day and a half." The scout looked at Song Jinxiu's face and said, "If we want to go faster, we have to cross this mountain."

Song Jinxiu looked at the mountain and said, "Turn over."

"What's that sound? Is there going to be an earthquake?" Suddenly, the cry of Junjun, the treasure-hunting rat, came into my mind again.

"Wow, wow, wow, the fighting has begun. It's the elephant army. This is how elephants fight."

The enemy's elephant army, why are you so excited?

Song Jinxiu frowned: "Hurry, let's speed up."

There was no road on the mountain, and thorns were everywhere. The scouts tried hard to find the marks left by their previous passing by here.

"It's closer to the east slope, but there's a draft at the cliff edge. Your Highness, please be careful."

"Don't worry about me. I can go wherever you can go." Song Jinxiu said anxiously.

The scout hurriedly lowered his head and hurried on. His Highness's words made him blush: Does His Highness dislike me?

I can be a scout, but I have learned this through various training such as running, jumping, climbing, long-distance raids, and weight-bearing marches.

He didn't expect that the high and mighty Princess was better at climbing mountains and overcoming obstacles than he was.

Song Jinxiu was extremely anxious. Although she had never seen elephant soldiers, she could imagine that the elephant soldiers here would be like modern tanks. Wouldn't it be like entering an empty place for them to enter the Eighteenth Route Army camp?

The young men of the Jin generation are all in the 18th Route Army!

In my mind, I heard the excited voice of treasure-hunting rat Junjun again.

“Wow, there are fifty elephants! Their hides are so thick that even the spears can’t penetrate them.

Hey, this is a good idea, let the elephant walk in front and they hide behind...

Oh, oh, oh, what are these Eighteenth Route Army soldiers doing? What are they charging at? Why don't you just get out of the way? Oh, oh, oh, dead, right?

Are you stupid? Didn't we prepare a fire pit? Why bother trying so hard to stop them? Just let them go into it.

Oh no, it’s done, dead again.”

Listening to the excited live broadcast of the treasure-hunting rat Junjun, Song Jinxiu became even more anxious.

Junjun didn't understand, but she did.

If you want to lure the elephant soldiers into a trap, you have to create an illusion. If you don't resist, the Baiyue people are not fools. How can they not be suspicious?

However, there will inevitably be casualties.

"Are you from over there? Don't just watch the fun. Have you found your brother and the others?" Song Jinxiu asked anxiously.

"I'm looking for him. They're all dressed the same, with helmets on. I don't know which one is your eldest brother."

Song Jinxiu was speechless and wished she could fly over.

At this time, the battle among the Eighteen Route Army was fierce, and Song Chunsheng and the young men of the Jin generation were naturally also involved in the battle.

Song Chunsheng and his companions are from the north. Although they have been in southern Xinjiang for a long time, they have had direct contact with elephant soldiers.

But every face-to-face contact left them deeply shocked.

The war horses were especially frightened and did not dare to move forward, so they had to abandon their horses and fight.

Standing on foot next to the huge elephant, every attack they made was like an ant trying to shake a tree.

There are such big animals in this world. They look very ugly and their noses are longer than their legs. It's really strange.

Ignorance and fear caused these new recruits to suffer heavy casualties. Fortunately, the younger generation of Jin were well-equipped and had better physical fitness than others. They were also brothers, so they could rest assured that they would have their backs to the enemy in battle.

Help each other and cover each other during battle. No matter how powerful the opponent is, never abandon or give up. Work together.

Of course, injuries were inevitable, but Song Jinxiu prepared the best medicine and detoxification pills for them, which helped them survive several life-and-death experiences.

Song Chunsheng and Cheng Jinhao also became centurions.

At this moment on the battlefield, the battle was almost one-sided.

The soldiers of the 18th Route Army not only had to be careful not to be pricked by the elephant's tusks, but also had to be careful of the long elephant's trunk and the enemy soldiers sitting on the elephant.

Fortunately, General Wei Xiao had already had a plan to deal with the elephant soldiers. Based on the fact that elephants are afraid of fire, they designed a fire attack.

Fire attacks can throw the elephant soldiers into confusion, allowing them to launch a surprise attack from the side.

Even so, they suffered heavy casualties when facing the elephant soldiers.

However, this time, they received news in advance that the Baiyue people were going to send elephant soldiers to attack Minhang County in Cangwu.

So they had already ambushed on the road from Baiyue to Minhang County, and then fought all the way to lead the elephant soldiers into the camp of the 18th Route Army.

A large amount of kerosene and wood was ambushed in the camp. As long as the elephant soldiers entered the encirclement and the fire started, the more than 50 elephants would be destroyed.

You know, the Baiyue people only had eighty elephant soldiers in total. This one blow could kill more than half of them. How could the Eighteenth Route Army not be excited?

Wei Qingyun personally acted as bait, while Song Chunsheng and others protected him and pretended to fight hard.

In fact, there is no need to fake it. They are just fighting hard, but it is true that they cannot win.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The elephant's footsteps on the ground were louder than the sound of war drums.

The Cangwu soldiers fought their way back to the camp. Wei Qingyun shouted, "Quick! Set up roadblocks, chevaux de frise, and stakes. Quick!"

The so-called chevaux de frise is an obstacle made of wood tied crosswise with one end sharpened into a sharp shape.

A deer trap is also a long row of sharp corners made by sharpening wood or bamboo. Its main purpose is to block enemy cavalry at dangerous places on the road or at the entrance of the camp.

Hearing Wei Qingyun's words, Lu Huer on the leading elephant showed a sarcastic smile.

He patted the elephant's ears and made an offensive gesture.

The elephant under him seemed to understand his words and took a step forward. "Boom!" The tall barricades fell to the ground with a loud bang.

The soldiers of the 18th Route Army couldn't help but show excitement. As soon as the elephants came in, they would start to set fire and burn these big guys to death.

However, Lu Huer seemed to have noticed something unusual. He waved his hand and the elephant soldiers behind him stopped.

Everyone was terrified, and some soldiers even wanted to pull open the barricades blocking the way.

Lu Huer sniffed his nose, and seeing his expression, Song Chunsheng felt that something bad was going to happen.

Kerosene has a pungent smell.

Without time to think, he said to Cheng Jinhao and Song Jinyou beside him: "Help me up."

Cheng Jinhao and Song Jinyou immediately understood what he meant. Without saying anything, one of them hugged one of his legs and the other lifted him onto her shoulder.

Song Chunsheng stood on the shoulders of the two men, and the moment Lu Huer turned his head, the crossbow in his hand shot out.

The arrow went straight for Lu Hu'er's throat.
