The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 783 782 Snake Formation
In the deep mountains and old forests in the dead of night, there is a suffocating miasma everywhere. In addition, there are often mosquitoes, snakes and ants infesting, making Gan Ning and others unable to rest normally.

At this moment, it was already the third watch. Since Gan Ning and the others left the barracks, in order to avoid being chased by Zhang Liao, they led the army into the forest. I just stopped in this deep mountain and old forest to prepare for a rest.

However, since Gan Ning and the others stopped here, they have not stopped. Since this place is located in the south, the climate is relatively warm. At this time, the northern country is already covered with snow, but here, it is as warm as spring and the climate is pleasant. .

The smell of rotting bird and animal corpses is everywhere in the forest, and all kinds of poisonous insects roam freely. In the silent night, there will always be one or two screams from time to time, which makes the whole army panic.

Because it was sneaking in secretly and coming alone, Gan Ning strictly ordered the army not to light fire, so as not to attract the attention of the enemy and cause the entire army to be wiped out.

However, what Gan Ning never imagined was that the environment here is so bad, the miasma is pervasive, poisonous insects infested everywhere, the morale of the army is not very stable, they dare not sleep, and they are overworked, it is really a dilemma.

"what--"

Another shrill cry sounded suddenly, which immediately caused a commotion among the people.

"Snake! There is a big snake!"

Gan Ning heard these calls, and was about to find out what happened, but he heard rustling sounds in his ears, and wriggling in the bushes, reflecting the cold moonlight, he could clearly see the people in all directions. Everything in the grass started to move, and the rustling sound was getting closer.

"Beep beep..."

Suddenly, there was a crisp grass flute sound from nowhere, the rhythm was fast and urgent, and in the blink of an eye, a very long snake sprang out from the grass, opened its bloody mouth, and spit out a scarlet letter. , and swooped towards Gan Ning.

"Shh!"

Gan Ning drew out the steel knife tied around his waist, and slashed at the long snake. The long snake just hit Gan Ning's blade, and the sharp blade quickly slashed across the snake's body. Immediately split the long snake in half.

At this moment, countless snakes, big and small, soared into the air from the grass, they all opened their mouths wide open, spit out something, and rushed towards Gan Ning and the others.

Gan Ning suddenly felt his scalp go numb, and when he looked around, there were densely packed long snakes wherever he could see. Only then did he realize that he had entered a very dangerous place, and the snakes would not miss him. Attacking people for no reason, and when the grass flute sounded, the snakes suddenly started to attack, which means that someone is manipulating these snakes in an attempt to attack the Han army.

Thinking about it in a hurry, Gan Ning swung the steel knife in his hand and slashed wildly. In front of him were the corpses of the snakes he had severed. At the same time, he yelled at the entire army: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

However, just after Gan Ning's voice fell, it was like a grain of fine sand sinking into the sea, without even a single echo. The screams one after another covered the waves, and merged together under the cold moonlit night , Resounding throughout the forest.

For a time, countless snakes kept attacking the Han army. The Han army rushed to fight, but had little effect. Because the snake's body was small, it disappeared as soon as it jumped into the grass, and it was impossible to discern its trajectory.What's more, a snake has just attacked, and another snake rushes from behind, which makes people hard to guard against. Once the snake is wrapped around the body, just wait to be bitten by the snake.

Looking around, there were snakes all over the place, at least tens of thousands of them, densely shuttling among the ranks of the Han army. In just a split second, the Han army was defeated, like a piece of loose sand.

Fortunately, these snakes are not all poisonous snakes, otherwise, even if they are not bitten to death by snakes, they will still be poisoned to death by snakes.

Gan Ning and others fought hard, but there were more and more snakes. In the huge forest, screams could be heard everywhere...

An hour later, in the rebel camp in Ailao Mountain, Meng Huo was discussing with his subordinates how to deal with the Han army. Suddenly, a man walked in from the outside, came directly to Meng Huo, and whispered in Meng Huo's ear. After saying a few words, a smile burst out on Meng Huo's face, and he happily said to the people around him, "The good news just came, Gan Ning's troops have been defeated by the Snake Formation, and everyone including Gan Ning The Han army has been wiped out!"

"Long live the king! Long live the king!"

Almost everyone shouted in unison to celebrate this exciting news.

But there was only one person who was not very happy, and that person was King Mulu. When he saw Meng Huo's happy face, he felt uncomfortable and drank the wine to himself.

Meng Huo glanced at King Mulu, but didn't pay much attention to him. He raised his wine glass and shouted to everyone: "Come on, let's celebrate this victory. We got rid of one Gan Ning, then the next step we should recognize Seriously deal with Zhang Liao. As long as I follow my plan, I can guarantee that I can completely defeat the Han army and regain the lost ground in Nanzhong."

"Long live the king!" Everyone toasted together to celebrate the good news.

……

In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and sprinkled the light on the earth. In the camp of the Han army, after a series of events last night, the seemingly peaceful camp of the Han army was filled with the smell of gunpowder.

First of all, Zhang Liao sent someone to secretly send Ma Chao, who was on the sickbed, to Dianchi Lake, and Pang De stayed to replace Ma Chao and continue to command the Liangzhou soldiers.

Then, Wenpin was transferred from the central army by Zhang Liao, and switched positions with Wei Yan, who was in charge of the rear army, and Wei Yan became the general in charge of the central army instead.

As for why Wenpin was suddenly transferred from the central army, although outsiders secretly guessed in their hearts, Zhang Liao did not disclose the slightest news.

The reason, I am afraid only the parties will understand it.

At the same time, outside the camp of the Han army, a team of 5000 people gathered. All of them traveled lightly. Each of them brought three days' rations and waited there quietly, waiting for Xu Huang's arrival. review.

These 5000 soldiers were Liangzhou soldiers that Xu Huang had borrowed from Ma Chao. They were all strong and able to conquer battles.

Xu Huang was wearing an iron helmet, and was riding on a tall horse. Under the iron helmet was a pair of piercing eyes, like a falcon. His sharp eyes scanned the five thousand borrowed Liangzhou soldiers, but his heart was dark. Thinking: "I don't know if these five thousand Liangzhou soldiers will play a role in my hands..."
