"boom-"

The wild elephant group that was turning around was colliding with the coalition cavalry in a blink of an eye. For a moment, many war horses were knocked away and the knights were trampled to death.

The wild elephant group was frightened by the Tang army and rushed towards the opposite direction like a crazily, like a flood, unstoppable. Nearly 30,000 coalition cavalry were torn apart like paper, and fell into a desperate situation that was irreversible. Tens of thousands of casualties were killed or injured in just a few breaths.

"Change! Turn around!" The cavalry behind saw that the cavalry in front of him were trampled by a huge group of elephants. In shock, they could only turn their horse's head and run in the opposite direction.

No one wants to be trampled into a meat paste.

But in this way, the 200,000 infantry soldiers who were originally following the cavalry were also stunned.

They watched their cavalry rush towards them, and behind the cavalry, there was a terrifying group of elephants. Especially when they saw a cavalry being picked up by the elephant's fangs, flying more than ten feet high, and screaming in the air.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" After the shocked infantry in front reacted, he could only turn around and run away in horror.

But how difficult is it for the entire huge stormtrooper to eliminate inertia and adjust the direction in a short time? Before they could complete the retreat, the cavalry rushed to the scene.

"boom-"

The infantry team was immediately torn apart by the cavalry, and I don’t know how many people were injured without death. What’s even more terrifying is that the elephant group also rushed to the scene.

The Tang army formation was quickly digging up the earth wall and pushing the earth into the trench. Since many elephants were still in the trench, they could soon pass by.

At this time, the coalition infantry had already suffered a catastrophe.

"Boom--" Another round of artillery in the Tang army bombarded the elephant group, causing the elephant group to advance even more crazily.

"Khan, please order the cavalry to attack on the entire line!" Seeing that the trench could pass through the war horses, Zhezha immediately asked for instructions.

Li Luo waved his hand and said, "Let's attack!"

"twitter!"

Zhezha jumped onto the horse, and the Tang cavalry, who had been on standby, suddenly moved.

"Woo woo woo woo-"

"kill!

"Boom-"

The Tang army cavalry jumped on horseback and raised their swords to chase the butts of the elephant group. More than 100,000 infantry also attacked on the whole line. Even the musketeers shouted and attacked with muskets with guns. Only thousands of infantry defended the artillery positions and Li Luo's tent.

The huge battlefield was completely one-sided. Under the impact of the coalition cavalry and elephants, the 200,000 coalition infantry suffered heavy casualties, failed to defeat the army, and was defeated like a mountain of defeat.

Tens of thousands of elephants were chasing cavalry, cavalry chased infantry, and at the end was the Tang army chasing all over the mountains and fields... completely out of control!

It's over!

King Zhenla and others looked at the scene with a look of earth, and they were so scared that they were trembling all over.

Isn’t you going to win? How could this happen? How could this happen!

A moment ago, they were still sure of winning and confident, but now... they simply cannot accept this cruel and terrible fact.

Failed!

"Retreat quickly!" The Siamese King Lang Ganheng, who had just woken up, abandoned the gorgeous elephant cart without saying a word, rushed up a war horse, and fled south without looking back.

Such a great defeat was no longer controlled. The Shuanglong Temple where the central army of the coalition was located had only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and could not be defended at all. If they did not escape, they would not be able to escape. There was no need for the Tang army to kill them. As long as the defeated soldiers and wild elephants rushed over, they would definitely die.

King Zhenla also reacted, abandoned his elephant cart and rushed towards the war horse, and fled east with his personal soldiers in panic.

The envoy of Hai Song, Xiang Wan, was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet. He rode his war horse and ran south in panic.

The king of eight hundred daughters-in-law was so scared that his legs were weak. He was carried on by the guards and fled to the city of Chiang Mai not far away.

Su Shan, the commander of the Dharma Protector and Sangha, no longer chanted the Buddha's name, but also rushed onto a horse.

"The main horse in the temple! The main horse in the temple! Hurry up!" A group of monks rushed out anxiously.

The last tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Shuanglong Temple could only rush out in a mess, and escaped desperately to Chiang Mai City.

Nowadays, no one is stupid. Only by escaping to Chiang Mai City can you survive.

At this time, the huge herd of elephants had already swallowed the coalition infantry fiercely. After a terrible collision and trampling, it broke through the obstacles and fled in all directions.

The coalition cavalry had fallen to a total of 200,000, and only 30,000 infantry remained, with most of the casualties and only 70,000 to 80,000 remaining.

However, their tragic fate was still not over. Because the Tang cavalry rushed over again. Behind the Tang cavalry, there were more than 100,000 infantry like wolves and tigers.

"Boom-"

The fierce Tang cavalry rushed into the enemy's remaining troops and slashed and killed. The already collapsed coalition forces were scared at this time and could not organize resistance. In addition to running away desperately, they would still run away.

The Tang army infantry also lined up in long queues and surrounded them from left to right.

After an hour, the Tang army chased for nearly twenty miles, chasing the city of Chiang Mai, and then surrounded Chiang Mai with great momentum.

Along the way, the coalition forces were left with corpses everywhere and blood flowed. Wherever the Tang army went, it was like cutting melons and vegetables, harvesting lives at will.

More than 400,000 coalition forces, 300,000 were killed or injured, and tens of thousands surrendered as prisoners. Only more than 50,000 people escaped into Chiang Mai City by chance.

It was really a big loss and a huge loss, and a huge loss.

Although 50,000 coalition forces fled to Chiang Mai City, neither Siam nor Zhen La entered the city. The Siam King only led a few cavalry to escape from Siam King Sukhothai City. The Zhen La King led a few cavalry to escape from Angkor Thom in the east. The two kings actually fled back to their country directly.

The envoy of Haisong, Xiang Wan, went south and tried to escape back to the sea.

There is only eight hundred daughters-in-law, King Meng Lai, who can't go anywhere, so he can only escape back to Chiang Mai City to defend.

Because this is his territory, Chiang Mai is his capital, where can he escape?

Meng Lai fled into the palace in the city. Before he could even decide, his subordinates reported that the Tang lord Li Luo's big flag was outside the city, and Chiang Mai City was surrounded by the Tang army.

"Langganheng harmed me! Ganlanheng harmed me!" Meng Lai cried, "What should I do now? What should I do!"

The concubines and the princes were both crying, but they had no choice. Meng Lai's monarch and ministers climbed to the top of the city, and saw that the Tang army was powerful, like a wolf or a tiger, and they couldn't help but be trembling with fear and full of sorrow.

Alas, this battle was really badly defeated.

Lord Tang is as cunning as a fox and as fierce as a wolf. How can he deal with it so easily? Langganheng is really a misleading person.

Seeing the arrogant lord of Tang Dynasty and the powerful enemy troops at the city, Meng Lai was completely confused. He could only order 50,000 remaining soldiers to guard the enemy.

Li Luo appeared in the north of the city in a swagger. After the central army was stationed, he issued an imperial edict to rest and siege Chiang Mai City on the spot.

"Your Majesty, our army not only has a great victory in this battle, but also has extremely small casualties. There are only more than a hundred people who died in the battle, which is completely destroyed." Wei Su smiled, "This battle was so thorough, rare in the ages. It depends on Your Majesty's planning and command, and his magical plan."

Yan Jun also smiled and said, "I have followed His Majesty to fight since the age of sixteen, and the casualties are even smaller, that is, I have had a life experience in Dongzhou that year."

Li Luo shook his head slightly, "You should not be proud and complacent. How badly they were defeated is because of complacency. The casualties in this battle were so small, not because the enemy was cowardly, but because they used the other party's way to help them, borrowing the power of the elephant group, and fighting a clever battle. If you really have a sword and a gun, that's another matter. The barbarians of the South China countries are not soft persimmons."

Everyone took the order together and said they did not dare to be proud and complacent.

Zhezha said: "Khan, the main force of the Three Kingdoms was destroyed, but the King of Siam ran away. I asked the minister for the decree, should I ask me to pursue Langanheng?"

"No need to chase him. Just let him go back to China first." Li Luo said.

Wei Su understood. His Majesty deliberately let Langganheng and King Zhenla go back, so that they could squeeze out the last force so that the Tang army could concentrate and annihilate it.

At least, they will never leave Sukhothai City and Angkor Thom. The monks can't run away from the temple.

"Send an order to bombard Chiang Mai City, don't let them live in peace. Then shoot arrows into the city and tell Meng Lai that he will compensate him for 100,000 kilograms of gold and 100,000 kilograms of silver. As long as it is compensated, our army will withdraw." Li Luo smiled and decided to send Meng Lai aside.

One hundred thousand kilograms of gold and one million kilograms of silver?

Everyone looked weird. The eight hundred daughter-in-law country is just a small country with a population of more than one million. How can they get it?

Liu Dadao said: "Your Majesty, what if they really have so many, our army will really withdraw?"

"I am the emperor, how can I speak without trust? If I can really take out gold and silver compensation, then I will withdraw my troops." Li Luo smiled, "At worst, I will retreat after a few days of retreating, and then come back."

"Hahaha..." After hearing this, the ministers laughed. It was so interesting that His Majesty teased Meng Lai like this.

Li Luo sneered. These three countries are rich in gold and silver, otherwise how could they cultivate so many gold and silver Buddhas? There are so many large numbers that a small country can't come up with, but it will definitely not be too few. Chiang Mai City is endless.

Why not just blast the city and kill in? Because that would definitely fight street battles, the Tang army would suffer some casualties. You should know that there are more than 10,000 fanatical guardians in the city, and these people will fight to the death. Now he has an absolute advantage and does not want to do it recklessly.

Let me add that I have been using a reading app recently. There are many books, all books, and fast updates!

Another reason is that although he really wanted the gold and silver in the city, he did not want the Tang army soldiers to participate in the robbery, so that Meng Lai and his ministers would plunder the cleanest.

When the other party extorts compensation from the people in the city and kills them back, the morale of the other party will be gone, and they will be able to occupy Chiang Mai more easily and destroy this small country.

Soon, the Tang army's artillery began to bombard Chiang Mai City.

Although the eight hundred daughter-in-law country is a small country, Chiang Mai City is a capital after all, and it is built relatively sturdy. The city is more than ten miles in a circumference, and there are 50,000 or 60,000 permanent residents in the city, which is also considered a big city in Nanyang.

In addition, another 50,000 defeated soldiers retreated into the city, which made the population density very high. Every shelling of the Tang army can bring casualties.

There was also a cannon hitting the palace in the center of the city, killing and injuring several guards.

The entire Chiang Mai City was suddenly in chaos, and more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians were like the end of the world.

"Boom-" Another shot came flying, hitting the top of the pagoda of the temple in the city. The top of the tower fell with a rush, and several monks were immediately killed and injured.

In an emergency, the Tang army's request was sent to the palace.

If you pay compensation, you will withdraw your troops. If you dare to say no, you will attack the city and execute the king, ministers and the temple master.

"What? If you pay 100,000 kilograms of gold and 100,000 kilograms of silver, then you will withdraw your troops?" Meng Lai opened his mouth in shock, and then became furious. "Even if you turn around Chiang Mai City, there is no such gold and silver, no!"

"Li Luo, he is even more greedy than a lion!" Meng Lai gritted his teeth in anger.
To be continued...
