Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy

After digging the trap, Song Jinxiu let the soldiers rest.

According to the information from treasure-hunting rat Junjun, the leader of Qiyue Village of the Baiyue tribe has gained the support of the majority of people and is preparing to take action tomorrow.

The next day, at daybreak, the elephant troops set out in a mighty procession. The war elephants were tall and mighty, like moving fortresses. Their bodies were as huge as hills, and every step they took made the earth tremble.

Soldiers rode on the elephants' backs, holding spears, looking majestic, with fearless fighting spirit in their eyes.

Wei Qingyun held a telescope and stood on the makeshift observation tower with Song Jinxiu.

Seeing that there were more than sixty elephants approaching, his face became even uglier.

Didn't they say their elephant army only had eighty? Was my information wrong? Or did I overestimate the number of elephant casualties in the battle the day before yesterday?

He looked at the calm Song Jinxiu and couldn't help asking, "Are you sure your trap can stop so many elephant soldiers?"

Song Jinxiu glanced at him and said, "General Wei, just watch."

Here, the Cangwu scouts saw the elephant army and shouted in panic to report back to the camp, "Oh no! The elephant army is attacking the camp."

In order to create an illusion for the elephant army, two soldiers deliberately fell down, and then used their hands and feet to crawl and run after them.

On the lead elephant sat Lu Hua'er, Lu Hu'er's cousin. Seeing this, he burst into laughter, "Hahaha, what a bunch of cowards!"

The elephant army soon arrived in front of the military camp. The soldiers had hastily set up many roadblocks in front of the camp gate. The roadblocks were in a mess and it was obvious that they were set up in a hurry.

The military camp was in even greater chaos. Lu Huaer saw these people. Some had blood-stained white cloth wrapped around their arms. Some had blood-stained white cloth wrapped around their heads. Some had blood-stained white cloth wrapped around their feet. They limped, holding onto their weapons. They were all panicked, hastily drawing their bows and firing arrows in an attempt to resist.

It seems that the Cangwu soldiers were also severely damaged last time.

Yes, they suffered nearly twenty elephant casualties. How could the soldiers of Cangwu be in good shape?

Watching these people panic and shoot with bows and arrows, they were resisting in vain.

Lu Huaer waved her hand and said, "Raze this place to the ground and avenge my cousin."

"Lu Huaer, don't be careless. Be careful of traps." An older elephant soldier beside him reminded him.

"Don't worry, I'm not Lu Huer's cousin. I sent spies to monitor this place yesterday. They were exhausted after a big battle."

He patted the elephant's armor and the several large water bags beside him and said, "Besides, we are well prepared. We have brought water bags with us, so we are not afraid of fire attacks. As long as we can restrain their fire attacks, the elephant soldiers will be invincible."

After saying this, he led an elephant and rushed into the military camp.

The Cangwu soldiers hurriedly shot arrows, shouting to retreat as they did so.

Lu Huaer followed closely behind on an elephant. He laughed heartily: "Hahaha. Don't you know how to use fire? Come on!"

A Cangwu soldier turned around and shot a rocket while running.

Lu Huaer grabbed the rocket with one hand, then took out a water bag and poured water on it. With a "hiss", the fire on the rocket turned into a puff of black smoke and went out.

"Hahahaha..." The elephant soldiers laughed and rushed into the military camp without any worries.

Suddenly, the fleeing Cangwu soldiers seemed to finally react and finally took out their flaming crossbows and shot.

In an instant, the soldiers moved swiftly and in an orderly manner, and one crossbow rocket after another was ignited like a meteor, carrying a blazing flame, streaking through the sky and whistling towards the enemy elephant army.

The huge war elephants were thick-skinned and covered in iron armor, but they also panicked under the powerful impact of the arrows and the scorching flames.

Rockets fell on the elephant, and Lu Huaer and others took out water bags to put out the fire.

However, when water was poured on the rocket, with a "bang", the fire suddenly spread like a big net, surrounding the entire elephant, including the soldiers sitting on the elephant.

The whole elephant looked like a huge fireball.

Suddenly, the screams of people and elephants shook the earth.

Even Wei Qingyun was stunned by this scene. He opened his mouth wide and looked at Song Jinxiu in shock: "How, how did you do this?"

Song Jinxiu didn't expect that these elephant soldiers were so clever as to carry water bags.

But her cleverness backfired, and the rocket she ordered to launch was coated with a layer of kerosene extracted from space.

It would be fine if you don't add water. When kerosene meets water, the water will boil quickly and turn into water vapor, and its volume will expand rapidly, carrying the kerosene up and splashing everywhere, thereby expanding the fire and forming a fireball.

The flames spread instantly, and the soldiers on the elephants frantically tried to put out the flames, but the fire was too fierce to control. The war elephants became frantic due to the severe pain and fear, and rushed around.

As they were running and trampling, with a loud bang, several war elephants stepped into the trap one after another. Their huge bodies were instantly trapped in it, and their legs were pierced by the sharp bamboo tips. They were in great pain and let out deafening howls.

Soon after, another war elephant stumbled into a specially designed trap. It struggled to climb out, but the slope rendered its efforts futile, sending it sliding toward the sharp wooden stake at the center. Finally, the elephant was pierced by the stake and collapsed miserably, becoming the trap's first victim.

But Song Jinxiu did not give them a chance to breathe. She waved the flag in her hand, and the Cangwu soldiers hiding on the periphery received the order and rushed out suddenly, holding spears and swords, and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the elephant soldiers who fell to the ground.

On the battlefield, blood was splattered everywhere, and dust and black smoke from kerosene were intertwined, forming a tragic picture.

This battle came quickly and ended quickly.

All sixty-two elephants were wiped out, and of the two thousand soldiers in the village, only seventy or eighty escaped.

The Cangwu army suffered less than a hundred casualties.

Amidst the cheers, Wei Qingyun asked again, "What did you put on the rocket?"

He was really curious, why did pouring water seem to add fuel to the fire?

"It's a kind of fierce incendiary oil," Song Jinxiu did not hide it from him.

Wei Qingyun frowned. He also used kerosene to help combustion last time. Why did he feel it was different this time?

It is naturally different. The kerosene used this time is more refined and naturally burns faster.

At this time, An Yi came over and said, "Master, can we remove the water bag in the north?"

Song Jinxiu nodded, "Let's withdraw."

Wei Qingyun asked, "What water bag?"

An Yi said, "Of course, it's a water bag to put out fires in case a fire elephant rushes up the mountain."

An Qi said, “When we were digging the trap, we surveyed the terrain.

There is water on both sides of the southwest, so the only sides to be wary of fire are the east and the north.

The soil on the east side is soft, and the traps dug are large, so the fire elephant cannot escape. Therefore, only the north side is prone to causing a large fire.

So our master asked us to prepare large water bags on the north side just in case.

Wei Qingyun lowered his head: Has she made so many preparations?

Song Jinxiu then said, "General Wei, did you see that? This is a true fire attack."
