Volume 15 The Furious Waves of the South China Sea - South Vietnam Volume 4 Snake Warfare

On the night of the defeat of the Ouyue army, the volunteers led tens of thousands of remnants of the soldiers to retreat on the hidden path in the starry night and avoid Guilin!

The next day, after Fusu heard the news, he immediately mobilized a large army to enter the pillar forest, intending to Kexiou first, and then to try to other departments!

Ancient Guilin is a small city built on the south bank of Tanshui, in fact, it is more appropriate to say that it is a city than a large tribal gathering area. Because it is just a large cottage gathered by a circle of fences, its scale and delicacy are far from being comparable with the Central Plains city, and even compared to the capital city and village of Minyue Kingdom!

At this time, because the people of the Xiou tribe had already evacuated to the south of Tan Shui the day before yesterday, there were tens of thousands of soldiers of the three tribes of South Vietnam attached to the city, and there were basically no people to see!

In the evening, in the city of Guilin, in the palace of Oulong, the king of Nanyue, the volunteers of the king of Nanyue were waiting anxiously!

Since being defeated by the Qin army five or six days ago, Oulong, the king of Xiou, disappeared into the vast forest with the crazy war elephants, and there was no news for a while! Without Oulong, it is very difficult for volunteers to command the troops of Xiou, and it is also a bit incorrect and inappropriate to command the people of Ouyue to continue to retreat and avoid the war, so as soon as the volunteers retreated to Guilin, they immediately sent a large number of people to search for Oulong's traces!

It's a pity that I searched for a few days, but there was still no news, but a soldier died in the vast forest! For a while, the volunteers couldn't help but feel a little worried, and even had the intention of completely abandoning the land of Xiou and retreating to the territory of the Nanyue people to continue fighting!

Now, the Qin army has approached Tanshui, and it may enter Guilin within two days, so if there is no news of Oulong today, the volunteers will order to retreat to the southeast early tomorrow morning, avoiding the vast forest sea and the Qin army!

Seeing that it was getting late, the volunteers were almost desperate, and were about to order that regardless of whether the soldiers and civilians of Xi'ou were willing to follow or not, they should be ready to retreat south, when at this moment, a South Vietnamese soldier came to report excitedly: "Report to the king." The King of Xiou has been found!"

The volunteer was overjoyed and said, "Where?"

"Right outside, slightly injured, the witch doctor is bandaging him!"

The volunteers hurried out of the bamboo hut and saw a group of Xiou warriors surrounding Oulong, and a witch doctor was treating his injuries with herbs.

"Brother Xian, I haven't been able to find you for a few days, you can make this king worry about death! Are you alright?" Yi hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern!

Seeing this, Ou Long hurriedly struggled and said, "King Meng is worried!" On that day, the war elephant went crazy and carried Xiao Wang for dozens of miles. Straight into the forest. At that time, Xiao Wang only had two cronies and guards by his side, and he didn't dare to retreat from the original, but he was afraid of meeting the Qin army, so he had to grope in the jungle and advance to the southwest! Along the way, although there were occasional obstacles, I finally came back safely!"

"It doesn't matter if Brother Xian's injury matters, right?" The volunteers saw that Ou Long had scars on his arms and legs, and couldn't help but be a little worried!

Ou Long shook his head and said, "Fortunately, an arrow wound did not enter the flesh, and there was a bite from a poisonous insect in the forest." As well as some tongue wounds, they have already been treated with herbal medicine, and there is no major problem. Rest for a few days and the sores will heal!"

The volunteer shook his head and said, "Brother Xian is fine!" It's just that the Qin army has approached Tan Shui, and it will cross the river to Zhulin when it looks like it. I can't stay here, this king is trying to continue to retreat south, but the soldiers and civilians of Xiou don't obey this king's orders, and this king is a little embarrassed!"

Ou Long hurriedly said: "Xiao Wang, this is to order me to follow the king with 200,000 troops and horses to retreat south!" Alas. Originally, Xiao Wang thought that with the help of war elephants, it would be easy to defeat the Qin army, but he didn't expect that the general of the Qin State Fusu would be so powerful, and he would come up with a way to crack it in just a few days! Seemingly. In a frontal battle, we are not its opponents, so we should retreat to the jungle, take advantage of the geographical advantages to deal with it, and then find an opportunity to defeat the Qin people!"

The volunteer nodded solemnly and said, "This king thinks the same way!" Brother Xian has a good rest tonight, and tomorrow morning, the army will be marched!" Ou Long nodded, and rested under the escort of the guards!

Early the next morning, the army of the three ethnic groups of the South Vietnamese Kingdom abandoned the ancient city of Guilin and began to retreat to the Hongshui River, where the vast jungle is the paradise of the South Vietnamese people!

Two days later, the Qin army captured Guilin without bloodshed, and after a short rest, they began to send scouts everywhere to spy on the enemy's situation, and in an instant, countless geographical and military information began to gather in a variety of ways to the commander's account, and Ren Huan, who was familiar with the situation in South Vietnam, began to painstakingly classify and summarize it for Fusu's reference!

At noon on this day, Fusu and the generals of the magpie occupying the dove's nest were in the large and gorgeous bamboo building of Oulong, drinking spicy liquor and eating fresh game in large pieces. The aroma of the burnt yellow and crispy meat filled the entire bamboo building to the brim, and the soldiers of the Qin army who were guarding outside the door were a little drooling!

Fusu used a sharp dagger to cut open the charred roasted boar in front of him, chose the fattest part and ate it in a big bite, and the rest of the generals were also gobbling up the food in front of him. Of course, the appearance may not be very elegant, but for the soldiers, roughness is beauty!

It is estimated that the generals are about to be full, so Fusu burped and raised his voice: "Generals, is there anyone who is not clear about the enemy situation now?"

The generals shook their heads and said with some whimpering: "No!"

Qiang Kui said hatefully when he heard this: "Those South Vietnamese people are all cowards, and before the general recovers from his injuries and takes revenge, they all hide in the forest!"

Li Xinle said with a smile: "In the past, the South Vietnamese had war elephants as a basis, so of course they were not afraid of us. Now that the war elephants have been dispersed by the king, these South Vietnamese people will not run away, but when will they wait! You can't stand stupidly and let you slap them flat with a stick!" The generals laughed when they heard this!

Qiang Kui also smiled a little stupidly: "This is also true!" It's just that General Ben really can't get out of this breath in his heart!"

Fusu wiped the dagger with the oilcloth beside him, regained his shining light, and said with a smile: "Why should General Qiang Kui be angry, I am afraid that there will be no chance of revenge in the future!?" Don't worry, the South Vietnamese people hid in the jungle and didn't come out, so they thought that Benjun couldn't do anything about them, and see how Benjun cleaned them up!"

When Ren Huanyan heard this, he also put down the dagger in his hand and said, "The king has a clever plan? Tell me what to say!" Fu Su said with a smile: "The South Vietnamese army wants to lead our army to the jungle for a decisive battle, this is not the strength of our Qin army, and fighting against it will inevitably suffer a great loss, so you must not be fooled!" The intention of this monarch is to immediately urgently order the rest of the Siling Ditun army to mobilize 80,000 troops to form the East Route Army, cross the five ridges and go straight to Panyu, Panyu is the nest of the Nanyue people, the main body of the South Yue country. It's impossible for volunteers not to worry. Although there are at least 50,000 or 60,000 South Vietnamese troops left in the territory of the South Vietnamese people, and our army may not win by looking at the favorable terrain, this army will at least make the volunteers anxious and gradually have the idea of a decisive battle with our main force. In this way, as long as our army has enough patience, it should be able to gain the strategic initiative. This is the first move! The most important thing in this move is who should be the commander of these 80,000 raiding forces, so that they can not only ensure that the momentum is strong enough, but also prevent them from being defeated by the South Vietnamese army! Do you have the right people for the generals?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and began to ponder: "This is not a low requirement, this general of the unified army should at least have the ability to take charge on his own." And you have to be bold and careful!"

Ren Qi frowned and thought about it, and suddenly smiled: "Yes, the last general will recommend one person!" This person's surname is Zhao Mingtuo, although he is only a school captain, but he has never been an errand under his command, and he knows him well! This man is young, brave, resourceful, and extremely patient, and he is the most suitable commander of this strange army!"

"Zhao Tuo!?" Fusu couldn't help but be taken aback: "In history, it was this person who blocked the Wuling Passage after the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guangda broke out in the Central Plains at the end of Qin. With 500,000 elite Qin troops in Lingnan, he is the king, neither for the Qin Empire, nor against the Qin State! This person should be said to be an extremely talented person. And a very assertive person who is not stupid! It can be reused!"

Fusu was thinking about it carefully, and Li Xin frowned when he heard this: "General Ren." Zhao Tuo is not well known, and he is very young, and he is a captain of a mere district, and he is the commander of the 80,000 army. Extremely inappropriate! I'm afraid that you will be dissatisfied!"

Fu Su suddenly smiled and said solemnly: "Benjun has always trusted Ren Qing!" Since Ren Qing said that Zhao Tuo is available, it must be right! It doesn't matter if you're young, didn't Benjun also lead the troops to fight when he was a teenager!? It doesn't matter if the military rank is low. Wouldn't it be better to be promoted to a lieutenant by two levels! This is Benjun's order, presumably the generals of the Eastern Route Army will not dare to disobey, and in the future, after Zhao Tuo shows his ability, the generals will not be dissatisfied!"

Ren Huan was stunned when he heard this, and said movingly: "The king has such trust in Ren Huan, won't the last general be unable to repay him!" Fusu said earnestly: "You and I, the names of the lord and the minister, in fact, this monarch regards you as a confidant, so why say these kind words!"

The generals couldn't help but be very moved when they heard this, and suddenly bowed down together and said: "I am willing to smear the liver and brain of the king, although I have no complaints!"

Fusu was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was busy: "Generals, please get up quickly, why be so polite!" Then Zhao Tuo's appointment as the general of the Eastern Route Army is decided!" Whoa!"

The generals returned to their seats, and Fu Su smiled: "In addition, it doesn't matter if the South Vietnamese soldiers hide in the jungle, they always need to eat, and if they want to eat, they need food!" As long as we take the granary of the Xiou people, I see how long these South Vietnamese can survive hiding in the dense forest and starving!"

When the generals heard this, they were secretly happy, and said in their hearts: "Our general's idea of coming out of the ground is really worse than the other!"

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Even if the granary in Xi'ou is taken away, will the Nanyue tribe and the Luo Yue tribe supply it quickly?"

Fusu smiled: "Don't worry about this! The Nanyue people were attacked and harassed by the 80,000 troops on our East Road, and I didn't believe that they could safely transport much grain to the battlefield; What's more, our army far outnumbered the South Vietnamese, wouldn't it be robbed along the way! In addition, the granary of the West Evening that our army is going to seize is called Dragon Valley, which is a huge valley, with beautiful mountains and rivers and abundant products, and it is the most important grain producing area in Xiou, and this Dragon Valley granary is across the elephant water and Luo Yue is facing each other, as long as this Dragon Valley is captured, this Luo Yue can't transport grain if he wants to!"

The generals were overjoyed when they heard this: "Then let's leave immediately without further ado!" Fusu nodded and said: "It is not easy to capture the Dragon Valley, generals, please look at the sand table: from Guilin to the south to the Dragon Valley, not only the road is nearly thousands of miles, there are dense jungles everywhere, but also separated by a big river and a red water river, this is the haunt of the three ethnic armies of South Vietnam, if our army passes through directly, I am afraid that it will be attacked by the South Vietnamese everywhere, not only is it difficult to ensure safety, but also their own grain routes will be cut off." In this way, the enemy will not starve to death. We ourselves were starved to death first!"

Ren Huan nodded and said, "Your Excellency is right, you can't pass through the forest!" The last general thought that although the land of Xiou was densely forested, the place near the water flow would be much smoother and safer, so he did not suggest that the army could go south along the Tan River, cross the Hongshui River, and cross this place called Daming Mountain, and attack the Dragon Valley! It's much safer that way!"

Fusu nodded and said, "Yes, Benjun thinks so too!" Although down the Tan water. Hiding in the nearby dense forests will not let us live in peace, but after all, it is much safer than going directly through the mountains and forests; Moreover, part of our army's grain and grass can also be transported from Tan Shui, and the other part will be supplied by Lishui into the Hongshui River and Tan Shui, so that although our army is a little troublesome, the grain and grass will not be too dangerous, after all, it is still safer to have a water army escort on the water!"

Li Xin nodded and said, "In this way, the South Vietnamese army hiding in the dense forest has only two choices: either watch our army swaggering south to attack Dragon Valley, or obediently show up and fight our army!" However, I don't think the South Vietnamese will let our army go south with peace of mind. I'm afraid there will be no less trouble along the way!"

Fusu said lightly: "Just let them take advantage of it!" Anyway, the thousand-mile road can be completed in half a month at most, as long as we endure this month and a half, it will be our turn to show our might!" Whoa!" The generals are commanded!

Three days later. Fusu left 30,000 troops to defend Guilin and choke the main road for the South Vietnamese army to attack Lingqu. Then he led an army of more than 200,000 people down the Tan River and went straight to the Hongshui River.

Sure enough, as Fusu expected, the South Vietnamese were hiding during the day. Come out at night and sneak attack! Although the Qin army was heavily guarded and had sharp bows and crossbows, the South Vietnamese still used familiar geography and flexible tactics to make the Qin army uneasy at night. And the Qin army was subject to the general's orders. At night, they can only defend the camp and never pursue, so they are all holding back the evil fire!

In this way, under the constant harassment of the South Vietnamese soldiers, the Qin army did not hesitate to make any troubles and losses, and went straight to Longgu. And the South Vietnamese army did not have a water army, and for a while it could only watch the Qin army's land grain team continuously replenish the Qin army from the pond water and the Li water, and Baba watched the Qin army attack his own henchman Yilong Valley under the harassment of his own land!

******

Tens of thousands of South Vietnamese soldiers were stationed by the stream in a dense forest at the foot of the Hop Shan Mountains, busy with picnics.

Under an ancient tree in the forest, the volunteers, Ou Long, and Luo Ying are besieging and discussing!

The volunteer said with a worried face: "Brother Oulong, the original intention of the Qin people is already obvious, it must be to attack Dragon Valley!" Longgu is now the main supply place of our army's military food, if Longgu falls, not only will our army lose most of its grain and grass, but also Luo Yue's grain and grass will not be able to be delivered, only relying on the transportation of our Nanyue tribe, that is far from water can not quench the thirst of the near! Our army is in danger!"

Ou Long said hatefully when he heard this: "These Qin people are so cunning, they didn't even go into the jungle to fight a decisive battle with our main force, but instead went straight to get our army's grain and grass!"

Luo Ying sneered and said, "Is there a war, there is no reason to talk about it!" Now we are fighting the Qin army, you are fighting yours, I am fighting mine, we must change this situation, otherwise our army may lose this war!"

Hearing this, the volunteer frowned and said, "We can't stop the Qin people just by attacking and harassing us now, Brother Luo Xian has always been resourceful, can he have a clever plan?"

Luo Ying thought for a while and said, "The only way to do this now is to abandon this dense forest and find an opportunity to fight with the Qin people!"

Ou Long sneered when he heard this: "Now the total strength of our army is only 70,000 or 80,000 people, and the decisive battle with more than 200,000 Qin people is not looking for death?"

Luo Ying also didn't talk to Ou Long, and said directly to the volunteers: "Great King, Xiao Wang's intention is this: our army will no longer attack the Qin people, and the main force will immediately move southward, cross the Hongshui River, and then enter the Daming Mountains. Daming Mountain is the Qin people's attack on the Dragon Valley must pass through, its terrain is dangerous, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, enough to hold on! And now that winter is about to pass, it's a good time for snakes to wake up from hibernation, and snakes are hungry at this time! It must be extremely ferocious, and then Xiao Wang will drive a large number of snakes and insects to besiege the Qin army with the ancestral secret method, so that the Qin people will not be able to cross the Daming Mountains for a single step!"

The volunteer was overjoyed when he heard this: "Now this is the only way to keep Dragon Valley safe, Brother Oulong, what do you think?" Although Ou Long has always been uneasy with Luo Ying, there is no better way now, so he has to nod!

The volunteer stood up and said, "Okay, come here, immediately send an order to the army to go out of Heshan, cross the Hongshui River, and seize Daming Mountain." We're going to have a duel with the Qin people there!" Oh! The king will win! The king will win......"

On this day, more than 200,000 Qin troops also entered the vicinity of Heshan along Tanshui, and were about to build a bridge to cross, when suddenly a reprimand came to report: "Report to the king, a large number of traces of crossing the river have been found ahead, and at least tens of thousands of people have just crossed the Hongshui River about two or three days ago!"

"Oh! Passing on my general's order, the army immediately began to erect pontoon bridges, and heavy troops were sent around to guard it! Fang Tuo, please come to the meeting quickly!" Whoa!"

After a while, Ren Huan, Li Xin, Shi Lu, Qiang Kui and others arrived one after another. Ren said arrogantly: "The king is urgently summoned, is there something important?"

Fusu nodded and said: "Shicai reprimanded the urgently, two or three days ago, tens of thousands of people just crossed the Hongshui River to the south!" What do you think?"

Li Xin realized: "I see, I said how to stop a lot in the past two days, there are not many South Vietnamese soldiers harassing it, it turns out that they have all gone south!"

Ren Yan frowned and said, "The enemy army crossed the river and went south?" Then you must have understood the intentions of our army! It seems that he wants to intercept our army's way on the front line of Daming Mountain and fight with our army!"

Fusu nodded and said: "Benjun also thinks so, but I heard that this Daming Mountain is steep, I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle!" The victory was a heavy blow to the South Vietnamese army. Take the land of Xiou, and threaten the flanks of Luo Yue and the Nanyue; I'm afraid I can't take a step beyond the thunder pool!"

Shi Lu said with a smile: "The strength of our army is estimated to be three times that of the South Vietnamese, and there should be no problem in capturing Daming Mountain!" Fusu nodded and said, "I hope so!"

Guangxi is a territory. More than three-quarters of the area is mountainous and hilly, and there are many rivers. Less plains! This Daming mountain area is the west wing of the central mountain range of Guangxi, with a straight line of more than 100 kilometers from east to west, a straight line of more than 20 kilometers from north to south, and about two or three hundred miles to the south is the Longgu Basin. Along the way, the mountains are really high and dense, and the steepness is abnormal!

In the Daming Mountains, at the foot of Longtou Mountain, more than 200,000 Qin troops are camping at the foot of the mountain!

Inside the tent. Fusu and the generals are deliberating.

"According to the nearby natives, a large number of South Vietnamese soldiers have entered the Daming Mountains recently, it seems that our guess is right, and this is the venue for a new round of decisive battles between our Qin army and the South Vietnamese army! It's a pity that the Yue people occupy a favorable position, and it is not easy for our army to break through this heavy mountain and dangerous mountain!" Fusu is a little worried!

Ren Huan nodded and said: "Yes, the terrain in this area is dangerous, and there is no way to find out the geography in the short term, so I can only use the natives to lead the way and try to move forward!"

Fusu nodded and said, "Not bad!" General Ren is bold and careful, and is familiar with the geography of South Vietnam, so how about you and General Qiang Kui leading the front army and exploring the way for the army?" Whoa!" Two of them take orders!

The next day, more than 200,000 Qin troops began to camp into the Daming Mountains, and the former army, led by the nearby indigenous lands, made tentative advances while opening mountains and building roads for the rear army, the process was extremely slow, and they could only travel twenty or thirty miles in a day!

That night, more than 200,000 Qin troops stayed in Longtou Mountain!

As soon as the sky dawned the next day, the 50,000 vanguard troops of the Qin army continued to move forward under the leadership of Ren Huan, and entered the hinterland of Longtou Mountain!

Along the way, the bushes are dense and dense, and the mountain trails are full of a wide variety of rotten trees and rhododendrons and lantern flowers that bloom all over the mountains. It is now mid-spring, it is the season when the grass miasma is prevalent, and the former soldiers can't help but fall down in poetry, but fortunately, the military doctor has already been able to take the secret recipe and treat it in time, but it has not caused any serious casualties!

On the afternoon of this day, the 50,000-strong former army gradually entered a valley!

In the green mist, a large area of dense jungle loomed in the fog, and the warm afternoon sun shone in the valley, exuding a cyan light!

Ren Huan was shocked: "Is this clearly a poisonous valley covered by grass miasma!" Don't be careless!" Ren Huan immediately ordered all the soldiers of the former army to pre-take the antidote elixir and began to tentatively enter the valley.

There are basically no roads in the valley, and even if there are, you can't see them in the mist-shrouded environment. The Qin soldiers stepped on the thick rotten leaves, and as soon as they stepped on the ground, sour water bubbled up! From time to time, there was a faint sound of distant eagles and the terrible howl of wolves in the forest! The atmosphere is terrifying!

In such a deserted primeval jungle, although the Qin army was bold, they were also constantly beating drums in their hearts. Although everyone had taken the antidote elixir and still had a miasma herb in their mouths, they still had a feeling of trepidation!

Gradually, the Qin army entered the hinterland of the Poison Valley! The atmosphere gradually became strange, and the valley was a little terrifyingly quiet. Originally, the eagle chirping and wolf howling could be faintly heard at the mouth of the valley, but now nothing could be heard. In the huge jungle, apart from the rustling footsteps of the Qin Kingdom, there was no other sound to be heard, and even the faint sound of insects fluttering their wings was rarely heard!

Ren Huan gradually had a bad premonition, and wanted to retreat, but he was a little hesitant: first, he had entered the hinterland of the forest, and it was a pity to quit; The second is to quit like this, it's good to say that it doesn't sound good, and it won't be laughed at by other generals!

I hesitate. Suddenly, a shrill cry suddenly came from the cyan miasma: "Hahahaha......!" This was terrifyingly quiet, and this voice suddenly appeared, and it suddenly frightened all the Qin soldiers. Trembling, some nervously aimed the sword halberd in their hands at the jungle around them! Qiang Kui waved the mace in his hand and shouted: "What kind of person, pretending to be a ghost, has the courage to come out!"

The sharp voice appeared again: "I am Luo Ying, the king of Luo Yue who you Qin people want to get quickly!" Poor Qin people, don't you know that you have stepped into the land of death? If you want me to come out, talk to my darlings first, and see if they agree!" As soon as the words fell, a sharp flute suddenly came out of the mist, and then around Qin Jundi, I don't know how many flutes followed. Then the Qin army suddenly saw puffs of pink smoke rising from the cyan miasma!

Ren Huan was shocked: "Everyone, pay attention, the red mist may be poisonous, don't approach!" In fact, needless to say, the Qin soldiers also instinctively felt that the pink smoke was not a good thing, and hurriedly avoided it. Nervously clench the weapon in your hand!

When faced with the danger of the last knowing, it is completely instinctive for human beings to have fear!

Just when the Qin army was highly nervous and gradually retreated, a rustling sound suddenly came from the cyan miasma around them. The voice was strange and sudden. couldn't help but make the Qin soldiers a little unsettled! Immediately after that, a heavy fishy wind drifted through the air, implying a powerful murderous aura!

When Ren Huan heard this, he suddenly knew that it was not good, and shouted: "The whole army should pay attention to your feet." All go back the way they came!"

Then, it was already too late, and several terrible screams suddenly sounded on the periphery of the Qin army's ranks: "Ah, poisonous snakes, so many poisonous snakes!" Oh! Help!"

"What!? Viper!" The Qin soldiers were suddenly a little confused, and when they thought of the terrible animals crawling all over the ground, all the sergeants were a little drumming in their hearts! Immediately afterwards, a terrible scene appeared that made the Qin army wake up in their dreams: in the cyan miasma, a large number of rapidly wriggling poisonous snakes surged from all directions, covering the entire ground, and the colorful markings strongly declared to the Qin army that they were highly venomous snakes!

For a time, the venomous valley was full of the cheerful wriggling sound of poisonous snakes, "rustling and rustling......"

"A lot of poisonous snakes! Run!" Face the enemy! The Qin army was brave, but in the face of these boundless poisonous snakes, the Qin army collapsed in an instant, and fled the way they came!

Originally, even if there were fierce beasts such as lions and tigers, Qiang Kui was not afraid at all, but in the face of this poisonous snake crawling all over the ground, Qiang Kui couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly said: "General Ren, this, how is this good?"

Ren Huan hurriedly said: "What else can we do, run away, it depends on our luck if we can escape or not!" To give! This is my family's medicinal wine poured on the body to avoid snakes and insects, this is the antidote pill, swallow it quickly!" Ren Huan also panicked, and hurriedly pulled out a small gourd on his waist, desperately sprinkled medicinal wine on himself and Qiang Kui, and then stuffed a rough pill into one person, and then hugged his head and ran away under the protection of his own soldiers!

"Sizzle——!" Qiang Kui didn't run two steps, and suddenly a green snake head poked out from the tree beside him, and pounced on Qiang Kui's throat like a flash!

The top of this snake is turquoise, the pupils are vertical, red, the neck is obvious, the back of the body is grass green, and there are white lines on both sides of the body, which is one of the most famous poisonous snakes in China, white-lipped bamboo leaf green!

Qiang Kui was shocked, and when his hands were quick and his eyes were quick, the mace was picked up and it was a stick, and he immediately smashed the white-lipped bamboo leaves and even the snake and branches!

Fang sighed, and a poisonous snake suddenly sprang out of the rotten grass in front of him, spitting out poisonous letters at Qiang Kui! It is estimated that if it weren't for the pungent smell of medicinal wine on Qiang Kui's body, he would have pounced on it a long time ago!

This snake head is triangular in shape. Thin neck. The snout is narrower. The top of the head has fine scales. and has inverted V-shaped brown markings, and the back of the body is brown. On both sides of the central dorsal line, there are parallel dark brown stripes connected to the left and right to form a chain, and below the stripes there are irregular small bands, and the abdomen is grayish-brown. There are many spots. This is also China's most famous venomous snake - the turtle shell flower snake!

Although Qiang Kui didn't know what kind of snake it was, he knew that it must be a poisonous snake by looking at the colorful snake body and the triangular snake head! Hurriedly roared, and the mace whirred in the wind and slammed down. Suddenly, the turtle shell flower snake was smashed flat with a stick, and even the ground was almost sunk to a depth of more than half a foot!

And Ren Huan also pulled out his long sword at this time and slashed at the poisonous snake blocking the road, Ren Huan's swordsmanship was outstanding, and in the struggle to swing, the poisonous snake blocking the road was difficult to get close to at all! For a time, the snake's body flew wildly, poisonous blood danced wildly, and was killed countless times by Ren Huan!

Suddenly, Ren Huan felt a gust of fishy wind flashing above his head, and his head struggled to turn away. A flash of dark brown flashed overhead and landed on the ground!

The head of this snake is large, triangular in shape, and the snout has a short, upturned protrusion formed by the snout scales and the nose scales. The dorsal head is black-brown, with large symmetrical scales and buccal fossa. The dorsal body is dark brown and tan. This snake is also one of the famous venomous snakes in China, the scientific name is 'Sharp-nosed pither', and the common name is the five-step snake!

Ren Huan recognized at a glance that this was a very poisonous five-step snake, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva suddenly, and didn't dare to act rashly for a while! Suddenly. Seeing that the situation was not good, the guards beside Ren Huan shouted, and waved his sword and light. Straight for the five-step snake! The five-step snake did not demonstrate, and it scurried like electricity. One bite on the leg of this guard, and he also waved two pieces with it!

With a "plop", the guard who was bitten by the five-step snake was instantly poisoned and fell to the ground. My body began to spasm, and I began to bleed between my mouth and nose!

"How?" Ren Huan hurriedly asked!

"General, I can't do it! Go away, remember. Avenge us!" The guard said as he vomited blood.

Ren Huan gritted his teeth, he was bitten by a five-step snake, and there was no cure for a while, and he was sure to die. Nodding fiercely, he beckoned Qiang Kui and said, "General Qiang, don't fall in love with war, hurry up!"

Qiang Kui hurriedly ran close to Qiang Kui and worked together to break through the way he came. Along the way, everyone's ears were haunted by the sound of the urging flute, and the miserable howls of the soldiers of the Qin army were heard everywhere in the cyan miasma, and from time to time the soldiers of the Qin army were seen falling in the forest, their faces were blue and bleeding to death!

As far as the eye can see, poisonous snakes of all sizes are spitting poisonous letters on the branches, under the trees, and in the grass, and this poisonous valley has become a paradise for poisonous snakes!

This terrible everything frightened many Qin soldiers into insanity, and the madman scattered and fled, but once he broke away from the brigade and fought alone, he soon died in Shekou! Along the way, the Qin army really ambushed countless corpses and suffered heavy losses!

Seeing this, Ren Huan's heart was like a knife, but there was no way but to fight and retreat under the protection of the guards! Gradually, there are fewer and fewer guards around, and most of them have died in the mouth of the poisonous snake!

Seeing that they were about to run out of the valley, Ren Huan and Qiang Kui were overjoyed, and suddenly, a gust of fishy wind suddenly rose from a huge tree beside them, and a guard next to Ren Huan screamed and suddenly rose into the air.

Everyone looked over their heads in disdain, and a huge python was coiled on the tree, and its thigh-thick body was tightly guarding the guards! The thick body was shrinking incessantly, so that the bones of the whole body of the guards rattled, and they screamed loudly!

Ren Huan was shocked, hurriedly took the iron gall bow behind his back, put on the carved arrow, and shouted: "Go!" Arrows like meteors, straight to the python!

"Pounce!" This short distance of more than ten meters is of course an arrow for Ren Huan! The giant python's neck was suddenly hit by an arrow, and a huge blood arrow erupted!

"Shhh The vitality of the giant python was extremely strong, and with a miserable hiss, the tightly coiled body suddenly let go, and the snake's head roared and pounced towards Ren Huan, and a heavy fishy wind rolled up in its face!

"General Ren be careful!" Qiang Kui couldn't rescue in time, and shouted a warning!

Ren Huan didn't expect that this giant python could counterattack so quickly after being hit by a seven-inch arrow, and he was caught off guard and rushed to the huge snake head with a wave of the iron gall bow in his hand!

"Bump!" With a loud bang, how could the manpower withstand the dying counterattack of this giant python, Ren Huan suddenly flew upside down, and a long bloody arrow erupted in mid-air!

"General Ren!" Qiang Kui was anxious, the tiger roared and pounced, and the mace slammed up, and it was a heavy blow to the head of the giant python!

At the splash of flesh and blood, the head of the giant python was suddenly smashed into a blur of flesh and blood by Qiang Kui's hard blow. "Shhh The python instinctively hissed. The huge tail swept back and slammed into Qiang's chest!

"Bump!" Qiang Kui snorted, flew out upside down, fell heavily to the ground, and spurted out a mouthful of blood! And the giant python twitched the ground a few times, and then it was cut into pulp by the red-eyed guards!

"General Ren, how are you?" Qiang Kui was strong in the end, and although his chest was painful, he still staggered up and walked towards Ren Huan!

And Ren Huan's body is much worse than Qiang Kui. Just now, I was hit by the giant python violently and almost lost my breath, and after a long time, I struggled to get up: "It's okay, it's okay, I can't die!" Suddenly, a huge poisonous snake suddenly sprang up at Qiang Kui's feet, nearly half a foot long, with a flat and triangular head, dark brown on the back, and horizontal spots; The ventral surface is yellow-white, and the ventral surface of the neck is yellow, which is actually the king of Chinese poisonous snakes - king cobra! Known as the Little Dragon in South Vietnam!

Ren Huan had heard of the name and appearance of this king of poisonous snakes. When I saw it, I couldn't help but feel distracted, and shouted: "General be careful!"

"Shhh The king cobra, fresh from hibernation, was unceremonious to the foe that disturbed its peace, and its fangs pounced on Qiang Kui with its fangs wide open. Because Qiang Kui grows too tall. The king of glasses burst out and bit Qiang Kui's thigh with a bite!

"Oops!" Qiang Kui screamed in pain, and drew his sword from his waist. The cold light flashed, and the king cobra that wanted to escape was suddenly swung in two!

"General Qiang!" Ren Huan rushed over with a roll, and the guards also hurried over.

"General Qiang, how are you?" Ren Huan's face was so anxious that his face turned spicy!

"Yes. Some dizziness, heart, heartbeat fast!" Qiang Kui's eyes are a little dazzling, and the king cobra is extremely poisonous!

Ren Huan secretly complained bitterly, and hurriedly ripped off a piece of clothing. It quickly pierced the upper end of Qiangkui's wound to prevent the snake venom from invading the heart.

At this moment, one of the guards suddenly shouted: "General, look, good, there are so many snakes!"

Everyone looked up, and sure enough, they saw behind them, a large group of poisonous snakes swept towards the ground like a colorful carpet, and the overwhelming devouring sound frightened everyone's faces like earth, and their souls were scattered, and some of the Qin soldiers who were running slowly were falling into the group of snakes and screaming hard!

The strange sound of the flute around is getting closer and closer, like the hellish hell song!

Ren shouted loudly: "Quick, hold General Qiang Kui, run!" The Qin army woke up like a dream, shouted, set up Qiang Kui and rushed towards the way they came!

The sunset gradually set in the west, and in the ten thousand rays of sunset, a large number of Qin troops gathered at the mouth of the valley of the Poison Valley! They were nervously sprinkling sulfur at the mouth of the valley, and at the same time, a small amount of realgar wine was also sprinkled at the mouth of the valley, and even in order to prevent poisonous snakes from gushing out of the valley, the Qin army was also pouring dozens of heavy trucks full of fire oil at the mouth of the valley and ready to light the fire at any time! And in the large open space outside the valley mouth, a large number of Qin army's military doctors were nervously trying to get out of the valley to be bitten by the Qin army!

For a while, Taniguchi was really a mess!

Fusu and Li Xin and Shi Lu were also standing anxiously at the mouth of the valley at this time, first, it was convenient to command nearby, and secondly, they were waiting for Ren Huan and Qiang Kui! Seeing that the sun had set in the west, and the soldiers of the Qin army who had escaped from the poison valley were gradually becoming scarce, but they had not yet seen the traces of Ren Huan and Qiang Kui, everyone couldn't help but raise their hearts to their throats!

Suddenly, a soldier shouted, "Look, look!" It's General Ren and General Qiang!" Fusu was overjoyed to look, and sure enough, Ren Huan and Qiang Kui were stumbling out of the valley under the cover of dozens of personal guards!

Ren Huan yelled while running: "Quick, retreat!" The snakes are coming!" Fusu was shocked: "Quick, prepare to set fire!"

Ren Huan and Qiang Kui are exploring the way forward, and they have already returned, which means that there are basically not many Qin troops in the Poison Valley who are likely to survive, and for the safety of the main force, Fusu had no choice but to ruthlessly order arson!

As soon as Ren Huan and Qiang Kui crossed the line of fire, the Qin army set dozens of heavy vehicles on fire in an instant! Suddenly, the flames were raging, and the sulfur sprinkled everywhere at the mouth of the valley was also ignited, and the mouth of the valley was suddenly shrouded in flames, emitting a strong smell of sulfur and the scorching smell of burning snakes!

Fu Su breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly came to Ren Huan and Qiang Kui's side, and asked, "How are you, you two are okay!"

Ren Huan took a breath and hurriedly said: "I'm okay, General Qiang was bitten by the little dragon snake, and the situation is not very good, fortunately, I let him take the antidote elixir earlier, otherwise it would be over!"

Qiang Kui's mind had basically fallen into a coma at this time, and he was supported by several strong guards, showing serious symptoms of sweating and difficulty breathing!

Fusu was shocked, and urgently recruited a military doctor to cut Qiang Kui's wound, bleed to treat the poison, and at the same time fed the elixir for the treatment of snake venom! Just when everyone was in a hurry, suddenly Ren Huan's body shook and fell down suddenly!

"General Ren, General Ren!" The guards hurriedly supported Ren Huan!

Fusu was shocked, and hurriedly ran to Ren Huan's side, and saw Ren Huan's symptoms: body trembling, body temperature rising, difficulty breathing, nosebleeds! Fusu and the old man in Zhongyin also learned a little bit of the art of disambiguation, and couldn't help but be shocked: "Oh no, General Ren has been poisoned by the five-step snake!" Hurriedly rolled Ren Huan's eyes, and said with a little relief: "Come on, General Ren is poisoned, hurry up and rescue it!"

hurriedly ran over another military doctor, and after checking, he found that Ren Huan's left calf had been bitten by a five-step snake at some point! Hurriedly cut off the poisonous blood, bandage it, and feed the antidote!

Since the valley mouth could not stay for a long time, after all the soldiers who were poisoned and wounded were roughly treated, the Qin army immediately retreated to the camp on the mountainside this morning and rested temporarily!

The night was getting darker, and when Fusu was pacing in the tent boringly, Li Xin opened the curtain and came in!

"How's it going, what's the casualties?" Fusu asked anxiously!

Li Xin's face was a little pale, he swallowed his saliva, and said in an astringent voice: "Of the 50,000 former army soldiers, less than 30,000 have only withdrawn, and more than 7,000 of them have snake venom in their bodies, and they are currently being rescued, and their lives and deaths are unknown!"

Hearing this, Fusu clenched his fists fiercely and shouted: "Damn!" The right fist slammed down, instantly shattering the handsome case, and the fragments were scattered all over the ground.

At this time, Fusu thought: Why did the Qin army spend seven or eight years in the original history to conquer Lingnan, the treacherous mountains and poisonous jungles of Lingnan are far more terrifying than the army of millions!

Li Xin also said a little gloomily: "Your Majesty, the front army has suffered heavy losses, and General Ren and General Qiang are still in a coma, according to my intentions, our army might as well temporarily retreat to the foot of Longtou Mountain tomorrow, and think about it!"

Fusu was a little silent, and his heart was in great pain, but the situation was stronger than people, and he didn't know what else would happen if he continued to stay in the mountains, so he had to nod slowly!

On the fifth watch of the next day, the Qin army immediately set up camp, withdrew from Longtou Mountain, and set up camp at the foot of the mountain at noon!
