Chapter 172 The real purpose of Tuobasu
Chapter 172 Tuoba Su’s true purpose
However, what Tuoba Su did not expect was that after the violent explosion, there were no large number of government troops in front of him. His idea of finding the commander of the government troops was not realized. His vision quickly swept across the canyon in front, and no abnormality was found. There was no way, so he had to lower his big bow and look for another way to escape.
The horse thief who rushed in the front hurriedly drove the war horses and rushed forward desperately. While they rushed forward, they also shot arrows into the canyon in front, regardless of whether there were any living people in front. Tuoba Su's reaction was also quite fast. He grabbed the horse's belly and rushed forward with the horse thief. The war horse under his crotch was obviously not an ordinary person, and the sprint was very fast.
However, the narrow canyon limited his sprint speed, and other horse thieves inevitably hindered his progress. In a panic, it was impossible for other horse thieves to give up the passage and let Tuoba Su go first. During the collision, some horse thieves were knocked down and then trampled by their companions behind them, and they were directly trampled into meat. The originally dry canyon was suddenly filled with blood flowing everywhere.
Those horse thieves who were forced to lean against the stone wall were actually very unlucky. They were suddenly forced to stop against the stone wall during the high speed. Not to mention the losses of the war horses, even the humans themselves were covered in bruises. On both sides of the canyon, there was no place for a single inch of flatness. People rubbed through the stones, and you can imagine what the consequences would be. In a while, the stones on both sides of the canyon were covered with red of varying degrees.
However, in order to escape and to fight out, all the horse thieves did not care about their own injuries. They just wanted to rush forward desperately, just to get out of the ambush circle immediately. They all knew very well that the setting of the ambush circle could not be very long. The terrain and landform of Suweikou limits the number of ambushers. As long as they rushed out before the ambush reaction, their lives would be barely saved. Otherwise, there would be more and more dangers.
"Boom!"
At this moment, another loud noise of collapse and cracking came.
This is the explosive pack that Yun Qifeng detonated, and it exploded just in time. Why is it a burst, not a sound? It is mainly because Yun Qifeng buried two explosive packs on both sides of the canyon. The explosion time of the two explosive packs was slightly staggered. The purpose of this is of course to completely block the canyon passage.
It should be known that Tuoba Su is famous and is definitely not an easy guy to deal with. His identity and origin are even more mysterious, and no one knows what hidden strength is behind him. If he is allowed to escape, the trouble will be great in the future. In terms of danger, Tuoba Su is much more than Li Maohui, Li Guozhen and others.
"Crazy!"
A large amount of gravel poured down, completely blocking the canyon.
The horse thieves who rushed in the front were hit by gravel and all fell to the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or not. Another war horse that was hit by gravel fell directly on the road, completely blocking the road. The horse thieves behind them all hit the war horses and all fell down. The scene was in chaos, and a large amount of blood poured out like a spring water, flowing along the canyon.
The huge smoke from the explosion and the dust flying upwards enveloped the canyon, making it difficult for the horse thieves to see the surrounding situation. Who ambushed them and how many people were, they all knew nothing. Even a person like Tuoba Su was a little confused now. Who ambushed him?
"asshole!"
"Find a way to escape!"
"There is only a dead end to stay here!"
Tuoba Su tapped his subordinates with a long bow and shouted loudly.
He was certainly aware of the dangers of the ambush near Suweikou. This is definitely a deadly place. Even if you stay for one more second, you may directly lose your life. It has to be said that the ambush is indeed fierce and unprecedented. However, it is not easy for the ambush to take his life here.
"Swish!"
Putting the longbow behind him, Tuoba Su threw a flying flask hard.
The flying bulb hooked on the stone next to the canyon, and Tuoba Su jumped up from the horse's back and climbed up the canyon with the help of the flying bulb. The bottom of the canyon is the most dangerous. As long as you climb to the top of the canyon, the danger will no longer exist. Even if you are still in the enemy's ambush circle, you will be condescending and can effectively counterattack the opponent.
Seeing Tuoba Su's appearance, other horse thieves followed suit. They took out flying flasks from their arms, threw them onto the stone next to them, and then climbed up the stone. They often appeared on the main peak of Helan Mountain, and these climbing tools were naturally necessary. This is also an important reason why the official army could not do anything to Tuoba Su. Think about it, how could the large army of the official army march in a place where there was no road? It was just suicide!
No matter how dangerous the terrain of Suweikou is, it cannot be compared with the main peak of Helan Mountain. After a brief panic, most horse thieves quickly climbed to the top of the canyon with the help of flying tills. Once they climbed to the top of the canyon, there was enough chance to counterattack. After all, the bows and arrows in their hands were not vegetarians.
"Parastic!"
"There is still this skill!"
Xu Xingxia whispered a curse.
Unexpectedly, Tuoba Su was really capable. When he arrived at this situation, he still had a way to escape from the sky. It must be admitted that Tuoba Su used the flying turret move, which Xu Xingxia did not expect. This was equivalent to completely breaking the dangerous terrain of the canyon. If they climbed to the top of the canyon, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry wanted to kill them, they had to rely on strong attacks. Obviously, even with the help of the Sun and Moon Guns, strong attacks were not easy. They had to be killed before they reached the top of the canyon.
Since I have set up an ambush, don’t you want to escape easily! Don’t you want to climb up? I will let you down! The range of bows and arrows is not good, we have muskets! I don’t want to kill you all, I just need to kill Tuoba Su! I can’t kill one Tuoba Su with fifty or sixty sun and moon guns? Do you think it’s a Xiaoqiang who can’t be killed?
"Everyone has it, aim at Tuoba Su!"
"Prepare! Let it go!"
Xu Xingxia shouted fiercely.
After visually measuring the distance, Tuoba Su was about 200 meters away from him. Ordinary bows and arrows obviously could not control him. However, the Sun and Moon Gun could. The lethality of the Sun and Moon Gun was effective at a distance of 200 meters. As long as he got a Minnie bullet, he would not believe it. Who else has the ability to climb to the top of the canyon!
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
The Sun and Moon Guns of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry fired one after another.
A large number of sparks suddenly splashed on the stone wall two hundred meters away. Obviously, after the Minnie bullet flew over a distance of two hundred meters, the impact force was still quite strong. From time to time, horse thieves were hit and fell directly from the stone wall. In front of the inline gun, their bodies were simply scum! As long as they were hit by the Minnie bullet, no matter which part they hit, they would not be able to control their bodies and fell directly from the stone wall.
"Damn it!"
Tuoba Su immediately realized something was wrong.
The person who ambushed him turned out to be a musket!
Of course, Tuoba Su could not know the power of the musket. The muskets in Ningxia Town only have a better killing effect within a distance of fifteen meters. However, the enemy who ambushed him was obviously fifty or sixty meters away! Shooting at such a long distance actually had such a terrifying killing effect? How could it be? Even the Lumi gun does not have such a range and power! What kind of musket is used by the ambushers?
For a moment, Tuoba Su's mind was a little unable to keep up with the situation. He noticed that there was a big problem inside, but couldn't figure out what the problem was. For the first time, he felt a chill that surged from his heart and penetrated his whole body. This was a signal of extreme danger. If he was hit by the ambush's musket, he would definitely die. Subconsciously, he tried his best to speed up the climb.
Tuoba Su couldn't understand why the ambush's musket was so powerful, it did not hinder the lethality of the Sun and Moon gun at all. Compared with the horse thieves on the stone wall, the horse thieves at the bottom of the canyon were the most unlucky. These horse thieves who were very tough in daily life were like paper-paste toys in front of the whistling Mini bullets, and fell from the horse's back. No matter how good his skills were, as long as they were hit by the Mini bullets, they would be treated equally.
The Minnie bomb with a diameter of 16.7 mm was hit on the human body, with a small hole outside and a large hole inside. Since the Minnie bomb is soft, as long as it hits the bone, it will break in all directions and splash onto various parts of the human body. If it hits the lower abdomen, all internal organs will be broken directly. To be honest, the Minnie bomb is several times more sinister than the Dam bomb. No matter who it is, as long as it is hit by the Minnie bomb, there is no possibility of clearing the wound.
What's more, lead is a very toxic metal, and after entering the human body, the harm is endless. Even if the science and technology in later generations are so developed, it is impossible to remove the toxicity of lead. The only result is decisive amputation. For the wounded in this era, amputation is basically equivalent to death.
"Bang!"
Xu Xingxia aimed at Tuoba Su and shot decisively.
He fired three shots in a row, but none of them hit. The distance of two hundred meters was still a bit far, and it was quite difficult to aim at the naked eye. The accuracy of the Sun and Moon gun was incomparable to the rifles of later generations. However, it didn't matter. Xu Xingxia was confident that Tuoba Su would definitely not escape his shooting. This bandit would definitely die in the canyon at Suweikou today.
Beside Xu Xingxia, there were at least a dozen warriors of the tiger and leopard cavalry holding the sun and moon guns and concentrating on aiming at Tuoba Su to shoot. They didn't care about the other horse thieves. Their only goal was Tuoba Su who was moving slowly on the rock. As long as Tuoba Su was killed, the mission would be completed.
"It seems like I've hit it!"
Suddenly, someone shouted in disagreement.
Xu Xingxia looked up and looked carefully. Sure enough, on the stone wall in front, Tuoba Su's body obviously had the movement after being hit by the Mini bullet. I don't know which part of the Mini bullet hit him, his body was tightly pressed against the rock, and there was no upward movement. It can be seen that he wanted to move left and right. Unfortunately, it seemed that it was not easy to do this. Because more Mini bullets poured towards him.
"Continue shooting!"
Xu Xingxia said coldly.
He wants to make sure Tuoba Su is really dead.
"Bang bang bang!"
The tiger and leopard cavalry warrior beside him was shooting at Tuoba Su's position. Xu Xingxia carefully observed the other side and found that Tuoba Su's body was slowly sliding down irregularly. Obviously, he had lost control of his body. Until everyone shot three rounds, Xu Xingxia waved his hand and asked the soldiers to transfer the shooting target.
Tuoba Su should be dead. His body was hung on the stone wall due to the influence of the flying bulb. This bandit leader pays more attention to safety than other horse thieves. He should have tied the rope around his waist, so that he would not fall off directly if he was beaten to death. It was indeed a difficult guy to deal with.
Tuoba Su's death made other horse thieves lose confidence in resistance. Tuoba Su's position among horse thieves was like Xu Xingxia's position among the military households of Weizhen Fort. His death directly destroyed the idea of other horse thieves' resistance. Many horse thieves were simply at a loss and did not know what they were going to do. There was almost no suspense in the subsequent battle. In the face of the terrifying lethality of the Minnie bomb, the horse thieves were either beaten to death or surrendered.
Half an hour later, all the horse thieves lost their ability to resist. The gunshots in the canyon stopped completely. Gao Meng and Zhang Feng were cleaning up the battlefield with the soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. The horse thieves who were not killed were taken care of. Most of the people waiting for them were dealt with on-site. The White Army did not think about keeping a living person this time. The crimes of those horse thieves were enough to be shot many times.
Tuoba Su's body was also put down from the stone wall. He was indeed dead and could not die anymore. At least five Minnie bullets hit him from behind. A fatal Minnie bullet hit his back and smashed his heart and other things. However, his head was well preserved and there was no damage at all, so he took it back for others to check.
Looking at Tuoba Su's body, for some reason, Xu Xingxia always felt that Tuoba Su was definitely not for the women in Qingyang Palace. He must have other purposes. Unfortunately, for the sake of fighting, he was so dead that he could not die again. Otherwise, he could get a lot of useful information from his mouth.
"Gao Meng, you will pull all the living bandits out to interrogate and see why they came. If you know, you can survive. If you don't know, you will kill them." Xu Xingxia pondered for a moment and said coldly.
"I understand!" Gao Meng agreed to go.
Soon, a short scream sounded inside the canyon. Obviously, Gao Meng was killing people. This made Xu Xingxia frown even more tightly. He would not be sympathetic to kill these bandits. He was just worried that no one knew Tuoba Su's secret. Could it be that no one except Tuoba Su, no one knew his real purpose? It is amazing to have such a paralyzed and confidentiality skills!
It was half an hour later that Gao Meng appeared in front of Xu Xingxia and whispered: "Sir, I didn't ask for any valuable information. Those guys couldn't explain it clearly. He was just on orders. There were also horse thieves who said that they had asked Tuoba Su what they were going to do when they were dispatched this time, but Tuoba Su never said it. However, later, a seriously injured horse thief mentioned it and said that Tuoba Su had accidentally mentioned the name of Kalong Mountain. Unfortunately, the horse thief said a name and died."
"Caron Mountain?"
Something seemed to flash through Xu Xingxia's mind.
Kalong Mountain Fenghuo Dun is on the left side of the Sanchakou of Suweikou, only half a day away. When Lin Hainiu mentioned this name, he subconsciously wrote it down.
"That's right, it's Mount Caron."
Gao Meng said affirmatively.
"Caron Mountain!"
"Oh no! Some Tartars are here!"
"Tuoba Su's purpose is Kalong Mountain!"
Suddenly, Xu Xingxia patted his head hard and screamed with great enlightenment.
I knew for a long time that Tuoba Su would not take the initiative to go down the mountain for a woman! He was not so lustful yet! Tuoba Su's real purpose was to sneak attack the beacon fired pillow of Kalong Mountain! The real purpose of destroying the beacon fired pillow was of course to release a large number of Tartars! It is certain that Tuoba Su's dispatch this time was just to cooperate with the actions of others. To be precise, it was to cooperate with the actions of the Tartars!
Although Kalong Mountain Fenghuodun is very remote, ordinary people may not even know its existence. However, its importance is definitely self-evident. As long as the Tatars break into Helan Mountain from the west, they will inevitably be discovered by Kalong Mountain Fenghuodun. As long as the beacon smoke lit up, Ningxia Town will know. The arrival of the Tatars will have no meaning. All the good things are hidden, and the Tatars cannot grab anything at all.
If you want to gain a lot, you must destroy the Kalong Mountain Beacon Tube, so that it cannot light the wolf smoke and make Ningxia Town unprepared. Obviously, the Tartars could not do this. As soon as they approached, the wolf smoke began to light it. Even if they destroyed the Kalong Mountain Beacon Tube, the effect of the beacon Tube alarm was completed. The Tartars still did not get any benefits.
Only the attack from behind can make the Fenghuodun useless and benefit the Tartars. However, this attack cannot be carried out too early, otherwise other official troops will also discover it. It seems that in three or five days, the official troops will have patrols to observe the various Fenghuoduns. If something happens to the Fenghuodun, the official troops will definitely know.
