In the deep night, that creepy sound sounded again, and the nerves of all the Chu army soldiers were tightened.
That is the sign before the snakes attack.
"Don't panic, poisonous snakes don't dare to approach us." Jiang Wei shouted calmly. With the experience of previous experiments, he had confidence in his heart, and of course he would not be afraid anymore.
The rest of the soldiers, even top generals like Pang De, were not so at ease in their hearts. After all, they did not have the same experience as Jiang Wei, and they felt somewhat unsure.
Tens of thousands of soldiers were on alert, waiting for the poisonous snake to appear.
The rustling sound became louder and louder. Under the light of the fire, red shadows were seen flowing in the grass outside the camp, quickly approaching the camp.
A moment later, more than ten thousand venomous snakes rushed into the camp unstoppably and pounced on the "delicious meals" of the Chu army.
Facing the swarm of snakes, the leading Chu soldiers were so frightened that they almost instinctively wanted to escape.
"Your Majesty has an order. Anyone in the army who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy!" Jiang Wei, carrying a silver spear, shouted sternly to suppress the timidity of the soldiers.
Under this suppression. The soldiers resisted the idea of ????escape, held their swords in front of them, and prepared to die. Fight to the death with a poisonous snake.
The endless swarm of snakes is approaching like a red tide.
Only a few places away, the poisonous snake rushing at the front, with its bloody mouth, was about to bite a Chu soldier.
And the Chu soldier also raised the sword in his hand. Prepare to slash at the coming poisonous snake.
It¡¯s about to happen!
Suddenly, the poisonous snake stopped and poked its pointed head forward. As if he was frightened, he quickly turned around and ran away.
Then, the thousands of venomous snakes behind them also encountered the same situation. Like an invisible thing. They were so frightened that they forgot their bloodthirsty nature and fled away one after another.
Looking at this incredible scene in front of them, the soldiers of the Chu army were stunned.
Only Jiang Wei and the five hundred soldiers had the same experience beforehand, so they were not so surprised.
In a short time, tens of thousands of venomous snakes walked away cleanly. It quickly disappeared into the dark night.
After a moment of silence, bursts of breathing erupted in the Chu camp. Then there was joy and joy.
Those scary, elusive cockscomb snakes, the cockscomb snakes that almost frightened them last time, were actually scared away like this.
The whole camp was filled with joy.
Jiang Wei rode his horse straight to the imperial tent, broke into the tent, and shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty, we succeeded, we succeeded again. The group of cockscomb snakes that rushed into the camp were all frightened away by the smell of our gunpowder."
All the ministers in the tent took a long breath and looked happy.
There was a sneer on the corner of Yan Liang's mouth, as if everything had been expected by him.
That¡¯s right, Yan Liang¡¯s snake repellent is gunpowder.
Although the cockscomb snake is extremely poisonous and weird, it is still a snake after all. What snakes are most afraid of are things with pungent odors, such as chemical preparations in later generations.
Yan Liang guessed that the principle of the mysterious herbal medicine taken by Shanshan people was just to produce a pungent smell that would scare poisonous snakes away.
So Yan Liang remembered that in later generations, sulfur was used to repel snakes, and the main ingredient in gunpowder was sulfur.
Therefore, Yan Liang issued an order to the rear, ordering Wu Yi and others to deliver more than ten barrels of gunpowder to Loulan all night long.
Yan Liang divided the gunpowder into small portions and packaged them, and gave each soldier two packages. One package was stuffed in his shoes and the other was placed on his body to drive away cockscomb snakes with the pungent smell of gunpowder.
Of course, Yan Liang only speculated that this method was effective and did not dare to be too confident, so he asked Jiang Wei to lead a team of people into the oasis to test it first.
The results of the test proved that Yan Liang's method was correct, and tonight, thousands of venomous snakes were approaching, which further proved the effectiveness of Yan Liang's method.
"Your Majesty, I didn't expect that the gunpowder invented by your Majesty is not only powerful, but it can also dispel??, it is really unexpected. "Guo Jia, who is extremely smart, couldn't help but sigh with emotion at this time.
Yan Liang laughed loudly, got on his horse, and pointed his riding whip forward: "I admire you and we will talk about it later. I expect that bitch Yuesha will take the opportunity to follow the snakes and attack. You guys will fight out of the camp and kill that bitch." Capture this bitch alive and offer it to me."
The order was passed down, and the morale of the generals suddenly increased.
Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Pang De and other generals jumped out of their horses and led the cavalry to kill in the direction of Panshe Pass.
At this time, a few miles away, Princess Yuesha Shang led five thousand Shanshan troops and charged towards the Chu camp with great momentum.
In Princess Yuesha's mind, the tragic scene of the Chu camp being in chaos, with corpses strewn all over the ground after being bitten by snakes, and tens of thousands of people collapsed in embarrassment was emerging.
She couldn't wait to rush into the Chu camp, add fuel to the fire, and crush all the 60,000 Chu troops.
¡° She could even chop off Yan Liang¡¯s dog¡¯s head to avenge him for being scornful of her.
In my mind, Chu Ying is already in front.
Suddenly, something surprising happened.
I saw countless cockscomb snakes swimming among the grass on the ground, as if they were frightened. After meeting them, they were frightened by the smell on their bodies and fled in all directions.
"Could it be that the snakes were driven back by the Chu army?" This thought flashed through Yuesha's mind.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Even if the Chu army knew the herbal medicine, it would have to be used for many years to be effective. How could it be effective in just a few days? Absolutely impossible!"
Princess Yuesha couldn¡¯t believe it, and she couldn¡¯t believe it either.
But next. She and her five thousand Shanshan soldiers were completely stunned by the scene in front of them.
That end of the avenue. The Chu army's cavalry was galloping towards them. Thousands of cockscomb snakes were crushed like chickens by the Chu army and fled in all directions.
In such a scene, it seems that the Chu army has a certain smell that can deter poisons like cockscomb snakes.
That¡¯s the truth, as surprising as it is. Although incredible, it is an indisputable fact.
"kill!"
"Kill all the bandits!"
¡°Catch bitch Yuesha alive!¡±
The soldiers of the Chu army shouted loudly and roared angrily. Tear apart the silence of the night.
Yuesha was frightened and planned to retreat, but the road in the forest was narrow. It's not easy to turn around five thousand people. How could he turn around easily in a hurry.
While the 5,000 Shanshan troops were still turning around, Pang De took the lead and led 10,000 Chu troops to charge forward.
The rolling iron cavalry, like sharp blades, easily tore Shanshan's rebel army in half.
What frightened Yuesha was the Chu cavalry passing through the formation. He didn't get entangled with them, but went straight to the Coiled Snake Pass behind them.
"Oops. The Chu thieves want to take advantage of the lack of troops in Guancheng to capture Panshe Pass. Now there are less than a hundred people in the pass, how can we stop them."
Yuesha was shocked and turned pale. She ordered her soldiers and horses to fight hard, hoping to intercept the Chu cavalry rushing past.
At this time, more Chu cavalry came to kill the generals, thousands of them, as dense as the tide.
The Chu army came in overwhelming numbers, surrounding Yue Sha and her defeated army, and seemed to want to annihilate her halfway.
Shanshan's army has few major generals and its morale is on the verge of collapse. Let alone rescue Panshe Pass, it is difficult to protect itself.
Yuesha rushed left and right, killing countless people and staining her robes with blood, but she was still unable to break through the encirclement.
The sky is getting brighter, and the situation on the battlefield has become extremely clear.
Most of the 5,000 Shanshan troops have been slaughtered. The entire front of Panshe Pass is filled with rivers of blood and mountains of corpses.
During the chaos of the battle, Yuesha glanced back at Pansheguan, and her already weak will was dealt a heavy blow.
At the head of Coiling Snake Pass, the flag of Shanshan Kingdom has been torn, and a red flag of Dachu is fluttering over the city like a mighty one.
The 10,000 cavalrymen commanded by Pang De passed through the battle formation and rushed towards Guancheng. They easily killed less than 200 defenders and took down the Loulan barrier in one fell swoop.
The flying battle flag of Da Chu was the last straw that broke the enemy's camel's back. When the battle flag was raised, the remaining Shanshan body and will completely collapsed.
The enemies, whose spirits were shattered, knelt down one after another and begged to surrender, hoping to save their lives.
"It's a pity that the Chu army, who was red-eyed by the killing, didn't give them a chance at all. They cut down ruthlessly with their blood-stained blades and killed all the Shanshan people who were lying on the ground asking for surrender.
"You are not allowed to surrender, give me the princessGet up! Yuesha yelled angrily.
Those Shanshan people no longer paid any attention to her scolding. Even if the Chu people kept killing, they did not dare to resist anymore. They still knelt on the ground and started to kill.
Yuesha was sad and angry. She knew that the situation was over, but she refused to surrender. She just tried her best to kill and retreat into the forest.
Although the Coiled Snake Pass is lost, as long as she can only escape into the dense forest, there is a path that can bypass the Coiled Snake Pass and escape back to Loulan City.
In the midst of the chaos, Yue Sha suddenly felt a complete chill coming from behind.
Looking back suddenly, Yuesha glanced around, and suddenly found that in the layers of blood mist, a pair of eyes as fierce as blades, hiding endless murderous intent, had locked onto him.
That man was wearing golden armor, holding a long sword in his arms, and his body was as majestic as an iron tower, with a red flame sitting under his crotch. No words could describe his supreme power.
That person who is as powerful as a god is none other than the emperor of Da Chu, Yan Liang.
The bone-chilling chill made Yuesha sluggish and slowed down her escape for a moment.
At this moment, Yan Liang suddenly launched into action. One man and one horse shot out like lightning, like an invincible chariot, knocking over all the creatures in front of him and rushing towards her.
"It's you bitch who has caused me a lot of trouble. Today, I will deal with you personally." Yan Liang's eyes were like razors, and the corner of his mouth twitched into a sneer.
In a few breaths, Yan Liang's majestic body shrouded Yuesha in his shadow.
