If you're asking about Chinese Chess, the game will probably be a draw. Your enemy has a solid defense, and your only attacking piece is the Rook.
indeed, i agree with fergus... it's virtually impossible to get a checkmate in the situation you describe, without your opponent deliberately handing you the game... in an end-game like this, if you had a horse and a pawn instead, you might have a slightly better chance than with a single chariot... a single attacking chariot against perhaps a defending king and just one each of mandarin and elephant; you might also be able to get a win in a situation like that... but in your scenario, with the 'twin interlocking layers' provided by the intact pairs of mandarins and elephants remaining on defense... your chances at checkmate employing a single chariot are virtually nil... at least in my opinion... best to offer a draw and start anew...
