This spell is negated by MR. Either recast it several times or bring PEN items.

Two elephants (They rout before making contact with the enemy no matter if I put them in their own separate squad or with the starting melee monkeys, even against enemy armies of 40 militias + archers)

You need to use archer decoys for elephants.
Make your commander as far back as possible and command your decoy squad (consisting of couple melee monkeys)to "Guard commander) and put them forward with elephants slightly behind them. Monkeys get attention of enemy archers and start running back to your commander, increasing distance and thus making it harder to hit them with missles. Thjen your elephants get into melee, start trampling everything, enemies rout, you win. Later on, use indie heavy infantry instead of monkeys - they have bigger shields, thus, better protection against archers. Oh, and leave markatas at home - they are just plain bad without Flame Arrows.
Prophetising your starting commander helps too.
