NOVEL NEXT Chapter 785: Imperial Giant Elephant Cavalry (782 and 783 were uploaded in the wrong order)
PS: 782 and 783 were uploaded in the wrong order. The last chapter was actually chapter 782. Sorry, I have modified it in the background, but the chapter name cannot be changed.
——
That night, before the night was over, Blue Snake rushed over overnight and set a fire outside the city armory!
Although at the end of the fire, due to the sufficient fire protection equipment of the armory, the fire did not completely burn, but it also created considerable chaos.
And when the two of them evacuated the city together.
As Geert hurried on, he said to Blue Snake: "Lord Blue Snake, you did a great job! You burned down their armory single-handedly!"
"I believe that this will definitely support Master Flynn in the subsequent war!"
"It's just that I still don't quite understand why you have to take such a big risk and take time to do this?"
"This...hehe, this doesn't fit in with the usual style of brave men!"
"You have to know that now, after bringing the military information back, we can already get quite generous rewards."
"And if you were accidentally exposed in the subsequent actions of burning the arsenal just now, the empire, which is wary, may change their plans overnight."
“I don’t know what the point of doing something like this is with high risk and low return.”
Obviously, Geert was making a small complaint.
Blue Snake nodded and said, "Yes, you are right, Lord Geert."
"My actions are a little impulsive and have no benefits. They are not cost-effective and should not be done."
"But this is for ideals. You NPCs don't know and will never understand."
Blue Snake, imitating the appearance in his memory, turned his head to smooth his hair, put it back, and said lightly: "You know, in this world, there are still people who live for their ideals."
"And I am one of those dreamers."
…
After returning, as Geert said, intelligence played a key role.
Because even Flynn estimated that the empire would not only send regular combat troops, but more difficult special elite troops.
But which one specifically?
What specifically?
Well, it’s really hard to say!
But now with the information provided by Geert and the others, Flynn can take precautions in advance.
Knowing yourself and the enemy means you will be victorious in every battle. Only by having accurate information about the enemy can you be more targeted!
According to intelligence, the troops dispatched by the empire this time include the elite special forces - the Giant Elephant Assault Cavalry.
There is also a dedicated Imperial Mage Group, but unfortunately it is not yet clear which Imperial Mage Group it is.
The Imperial Mage Corps, a special unit, is worthy of special mention, but there is nothing worth mentioning.
Every country has an elite legion of mages who often play a big role in this war. It seems that they do not need to be mentioned specifically.
But the empire's powerful and invincible mage army must be mentioned.
Because any country that is slightly stronger will basically form its own mage troops. However, because the empire itself is the most powerful country, the empire's mage troops are also ridiculously strong.
The empire also has more than one direct mage group, each with its own characteristics.
Of course, Flynn expected that the Empire's mages would be dispatched.
Regarding the other elite troops dispatched by the empire-the giant elephant assault cavalry, it was beyond Flynn's expectation!
In Flynn's understanding, although the giant elephant assault cavalry is a powerful unit, it is difficult to manage due to the high cost of raising it.
So much so that even the extremely wealthy empire felt unbearable.
After all, spending the same money to raise 100 giant elephant assault cavalry and train 10,000 elite heavy cavalry is obviously more practical.
Unexpectedly, the empire is not only maintaining the giant elephant assault cavalry, but is even developing it!
Flynn repeatedly confirmed the source of the intelligence and determined that the so-called giant elephant assault cavalry was not an honor guard force.
But a truly large-scale combat force.
This made Flynn's face look a little solemn.
Well, even though I knew the empire was powerful, I didn’t expect it to be so powerful!
It seems that the opponent he is facing is really difficult to deal with.
But at this moment, it is impossible to retreat, you can only stay calm and move forward!
Flynn was deducing and analyzing the Imperial Elephant Cavalry Legion in his mind and on the map at the same time.
As the name suggests, the Giant Elephant Cavalry is a special cavalry unit that uses elephants as mounts.
The elephant soldier is actually not uncommon in the history of the earth.
However, they are different from those common elephant soldiers in the history of the earth.
The size of the elephants fighting in another world is also quite exaggerated!
According to Flynn's previous knowledge, those giant elephant cavalry and their war elephant mounts used for performances generally weigh more than 15 tons!
They are huge and equipped with spiked armor.
Let such a super colossus, which weighs more than 15 tons and is nearly 10 meters long, carry out a frontal impact with strong armor, and almost no infantry unit can resist it!
It is no boast to say that the frontal assault of the Empire's Giant Elephant Cavalry Regiment cannot be stopped.
If those giant elephant war elephant troops on the earth are the normal version, then the war elephants in this world are simply the Lord of the Rings version!
Many times, bigger means stronger, it’s that simple.
Not only has the size and tonnage been enhanced, but the control level of the alien war elephant has also reached a very good level.
Thanks to the special magic controller, these grumpy war elephants are quite obedient.
Although it is not as good as those superior war horses that have been selected and trained for generations, they dare to brave even the dragon's pond and tiger's den with their master.
But at least there will be no situation where he is frightened by arrows or flames and loses control, or even backfires on his own troops.
As we all know, the biggest problem of the war elephant unit is its controllability, and it cannot be controlled as freely as the war horse unit.
Now, with the blessing of magic devices, controllability is no longer a big problem.
In addition, the empire is indeed willing to spend money, so it is normal to invest in an elite armored giant elephant cavalry unit.
It’s not that I don’t know, it’s just that I’m shocked!
Flynn, or even the entire world, so far does not have any particularly good way to deal with the Empire's giant elephant cavalry.
The giant elephant cavalry is not invincible, but if you want to defeat the giant elephant cavalry, you can only fight head-on, use more powerful Warcraft-level troops, or use human lives to fill it.
It is impossible to withstand the impact of the giant elephant cavalry at a relatively small cost, using opportunistic tactics and without losing any blood.
Flynn was not worried about using human lives to fill the hole.
After all, Flynn, who has hundreds of thousands or millions of brave men, his most unsolvable tactic is the tactic of piled corpses in a sea of people.
