Chapter 746: The Road to Death
When the Manchu soldiers saw that the governor stopped, they immediately had a third-class guard called the horse and asked. Mulihu's way, it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, so they asked the troops to speed up the horses to pass quickly. The Manchu soldiers then rode their horses again, and the sound of hooves made the valley echo. The official Taoist here is more than ten miles away. There is a lake on the right side of the road on the west side. This lake is not big, which is comparable to Mochou Lake in Jiangning City. The water gathers from several small rivers on the right side of the mountain.
The soldiers rushed past the lake. Gekun saw a fishing boat on the lake. There were three or four people standing on the boat, wrapped in net scarves, all dressed in Ming people!
The scene came too strange and the soldiers couldn't help but be surprised.
But before the soldiers stopped their horses and asked, a man on the boat took out something and pointed it into the sky. From a distance, there was a firelight coming from the tail of the object. Then with a "swoosh!", a red light soared into the sky, just like the firecrackers made by the Han people. The roaring dragon pierced into the sky and exploded in the air.
"Not good, there is an ambush!"
Man soldiers were shocked. Ge Kun was about to show warning, but he heard dozens of screams coming from the slopes on both sides of the official road. He turned his head and looked at it. At this moment, countless red flags appeared on the slope where there were no one. Then, guns and cannons were fired, shouting to kill the sky. At this moment, the soldiers still didn't know how they were ambushed.
"Roar out!"
Murihu's face changed rapidly, but he did not hesitate for a moment. He raised his whip and whipped his horse, trying to lead the whole army out of the official road, otherwise he would be ambushed if he could not move away. Only by leaving the dead first can he try to pick up Prince Ying'an out.
The soldiers knew that the situation was in danger. They rushed forward by horses and rushed forward. Most of them had passed through this official road, and they could protrude as long as they turned the bend in front.
The ambushed soldiers on the mountain were in the half slope and could not rush down for a moment. Seeing that there was hope for breaking through, the soldiers were overjoyed, but after turning the corner, everyone changed their color.
Directly ahead, countless spears stood; under the spears, there were piles of iron-armored men!
Seeing the iron-armored soldiers in front of him, Murihu couldn't help but think of the iron-man soldiers of the Daya Dali and the others. His mind was just aware that he couldn't understand how the pirates who had retreated to the Jiangkou came here!
However, at this time, Mulihu could no longer consider whether to advance or retreat, so he could only rush forward with his teeth. Although the iron armored elite soldiers were powerful, they were not defeated. Liang Huafeng, the Han people, could kill more than 10,000 iron armored soldiers, let alone I am really a large soldier in Manzhou!
"The Tartars are here!"
"Prepare for war!"
"kill!"
Eight hundred iron guards stomped their feet, shaking the ground trembled.
The blind Li Yiru once carried a big hammer on his shoulder and rushed forward with a full range of soldiers and horses.
The soldiers were unable to retreat, they could only rush forward.
Ge Kun's heart trembled slightly, but he gritted his teeth and said nothing, and only pulled out the long knife.
There were no soldiers who took the cavalry bows that were bearing on them, because they knew that the iron armored soldiers on the opposite side could not be dispelled by arrows. If they wanted to defeat the opponent, they could only have the courage and use the sprint of the war horses.
This is a tough battle. In the words of the Han people, the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road!
Murihu no longer cared about what happened to Prince An and the Han army. Now, he only had the iron-armored enemy soldiers in front of him. If he could not rush over, he knew what the consequences would be.
"kill!"
The soldiers showed their ferocious yellow teeth and made an angry roar from their throats. The roar covered up some uneasiness and fear in their hearts; the roar stimulated their ferocity; the roar made them fearless.
The war horses felt the courage of their owners, and they rushed forward hard. The horse's hooves fell on the ground in unison, then soared into the air, showing graceful curves.
When the sharp-eyed soldier's eyes fell on the ground accidentally as the horses were shaking, he found that the road below seemed to be a little wrong, and the color seemed much darker.
Some soldiers were confused, but some soldiers did not take it seriously, because China's land was already very colorful, and there was a lot of oily and black soil in the south of the Yangtze River, so it was not surprising that a piece of black mud suddenly appeared.
Ge Kun found something wrong, because the road was very flat, which could be seen from the fact that the war horses could step on it smoothly. However, he could see clearly that every time the hooves of the war horses in front would always bring up something like black soil. They were not like wood ash or dust, but they were somewhat like gunpowder used by the Han army.
Ge Kun suddenly felt his heart beating wildly, as if he was about to jump out of his chest. He was sure that the horse's hooves were carrying gunpowder, and the entire ground was gunpowder. This was a road to death covered with gunpowder!
"ah!"
Ge Kun screamed in shock, but the soldiers did not notice something was wrong with Zuo Ling, but said Zuo Ling was roaring.
Guo Lihu noticed something was wrong, but instead of discovering danger on the ground, he saw the enemy general in front of him standing there with a torch.
The blind Li was waiting for most of the soldiers to embark on the road of gunpowder. The road of death ahead was covered with no less than three thousand kilograms of gunpowder, which was a big deal that the Taiping Army had never had before since its establishment. It was so luxurious that the gunmen were stumbled. Now, these Manchu Tartars will pay the price for the luxury of the commander.
"go!"
The blind Li roared and threw the torch in his hand forward with all his strength.
Like a freeze, Murihu and the soldiers looked straight at the torch that flew into the air. They only had a question in their hearts: What did the thief throw this torch for?
Ge Kun also saw the torch thrown in front of him. His hands and feet were cold. When he sat on the horse, he felt that his soul and six spirits were gone, just like a walking corpse.
The torch hit the ground with a bang under the gaze of thousands of pairs of eyes.
The moment it landed, a dazzling light came from the ground, first with blue smoke, and then a loud bang came.
The soldiers finally knew what the torch was used for, but unfortunately it was too late.
The huge explosion shook the entire Fangshan and covered the shouts of everyone in the mountain. The black smoke rising could be seen clearly for more than ten miles away.
The explosion's shock wave was so strong that the blind Li was shocked to take a few steps back and hit the shield behind him.
Even after making complete preparations, the Iron Man Guards with cotton stuffed in their ears were also shocked by the shocking explosion and their eardrums were hurt.
After the smoke of gunpowder, the Iron Man Guards saw a corpse in front of them. Human and horses were everywhere, with internal organs and hearts everywhere, and were blown up everywhere. The bloody smell in the air far suppressed the choking smell of gunpowder. At that moment, the Iron Man Guards felt that the smell of gunpowder was better.
It was a terrible sight. The soldiers who were not dead were wailing on the ground. Some had their legs broken, some had their hands broken, some were blown up by their waists, and some were pressed by their mounts and unable to move.
The corpses of four or five hundred people turned the official path into hell on earth.
The soldiers who were left behind and were lucky enough not to step into the gunpowder array were all shocked, and they all shivered immediately.
"Kill them all!"
With the blind Li Tiehammer swing, the Iron Man Guards instantly stood up from the ground and stepped forward together. (To be continued.)
