Chapter 278: Violent Explosion
However, it was said that the pangolin, the owner of the village in front of Shimenling, took the lead, and led the bandits to rush towards the convoy like a vicious god. Although the other party also had dozens of guys, he hadn't taken it to heart, and secretly thought that with his own skills, a dozen people would not be able to get close to him. Coupled with the fact that it was late at night, he was handy in the night battle, so he was even more fearless.
Unexpectedly, when dozens of guys on the other side saw someone rushing over, they didn't say a word, threw down the car and turned around and ran.
The pangolin still feels a little puzzled, because even if it is an ordinary businessman, that goods is his life, and he often gives up his life and money, and no matter what, he has to resist twice. The other party is dozens of people, and if you really start to do it, you can at least hold on for a while.
But at this moment, he is not allowed to think too much, since the other party runs, it is natural to chase. The pangolin led the bandits to chase after them, but the guys were very fast at their feet, and they ran away in an instant.
Because there are more pampered times, pangolins are tired and out of breath after running a few steps. Seeing that he couldn't catch up, he stopped chasing it. I thought that the monk couldn't run the temple, although no one was caught, but the goods were all left, which was a big gain.
The rest of the bandits were not as strong as pangolins, and they all rushed up with a sigh of relief at this time. The pangolin yelled, "Surround these carts for me!" ”
Its practicality is not for his order, and the eyes of those bandits have long been blue. A full fifteen donkey carts, full of goods, are said to be pearl agate, who can not feel itchy in their hearts when they hear it?
At this time, boxes of treasures were in front of them, and these bandits felt that their dreams had come true. As long as you catch a handful, won't you have to eat and drink for a few lifetimes?
Therefore, all the bandits are scrambling to be the first to squeeze into the car in a disorderly manner, for fear that the good position will be occupied by others, so that they will not be able to grab a few more. If you look down from above, this scene is like a swarm of flies staring at the stinky meat, and they can't be coaxed away.
The bandits, who had climbed to the roof of the car first, pried open the lid of the wooden box that was not well nailed, and reached out to touch it. But when I touched it, it didn't feel right, it was not a small round bead as I imagined, but a large amount of powdery things, mixed with some sharp iron pieces. A few bandits were too anxious, and their hands were cut by iron pieces, and they scolded their mothers.
As the owner of the village, the pangolin had to leave half of it for him even if the other bandits robbed it, so he didn't rush to climb into the car. But in his heart, he is also full of good expectations for the full cargo.
At this time, hearing the suspicious voices of the bandits, the pangolin also felt strange, so he jumped into a big car, pried open the top box, and looked inside.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, this look scares the pangolin to the soul! It turned out that what kind of pearl agate was inside, and it was clearly a whole box of black gunpowder powder!
"It's gunpowder! We're fooled, run! The pangolin was alert, so anxious that even the sound of shouting changed.
But now it's too late to run!
The place where the fifteen carts stopped happened to be a small col. I only heard that on the mountainside around me, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded like bursting beans, and at the same time, I don't know how many figures stood up in the darkness at the same time, and roared in unison with a terrifying voice: "Kill!" ”
"It's a bird!" The pangolin was quite well-informed, and immediately turned over and jumped out of the cart, leaning tightly on the gang to avoid the projectiles that were like flying locusts.
And the bandits under him didn't react as quickly as he did. They were now gathering around the cart, and some were on the roof of the cart, and the target was very obvious. After a volley of bird guns, more than a dozen bandits had been shot and lay on the ground.
This sudden rain of bullets from all directions completely stunned the pangolins. He was afraid that he would be shot as soon as he showed his head, so he simply got under the cart and lay on the ground and did not dare to move. The rest of the bandits saw that the owner of the village was so virtuous, and they did not dare to act rashly, so they learned from the pangolin and used the cart as a cover to avoid stray bullets.
But the target of those bird guns also changed, no longer aimed at the bandits, but at the powder box on the cart with the lid open!
At this time, it was the third watch, and it was the darkest time. In the boundless darkness, the people on the mountain could not see clearly at all, only the brimming arquebus was particularly conspicuous. The bandits watched in horror as the flames crawled quickly up the firerope, and then suddenly disappeared, followed by an earth-shattering explosion, and a new round of bullets had smashed into their heads!
The rain of bullets hit the gunpowder on one of the cars. Although the projectile of the bird gun is a solid buckshot and cannot be compared with modern bullets with explosives inside the hollow, it still has an extremely high velocity. The projectile came into contact with the gunpowder, and due to the huge friction, the temperature of the gunpowder increased sharply, and it suddenly exploded violently!
As long as one box explodes, the entire cart's powder box will explode. The power of the explosion was not as small as that of the explosion, and after a loud bang, a deep crater appeared on the ground, and even the cart with the donkey pulling the cart, as well as all the bandits nearby, were all blown to pieces!
"Wow!" The pangolin, who was hiding under the big car, was so frightened that he couldn't speak when he saw the tragic situation of the car next to him, but he just relied on instinct and crawled out from under the car screaming wildly. He didn't care about the projectile of the bird's gun, and thought that if he was hit by the bird's gun, at most he would have many blood holes on his body, and he would have a chance to live; But if it is blown up by gunpowder, then there will be no bones left!
At this time, more than a dozen large cars were hit by projectiles one after another, and they exploded one after another. The bandits under the pangolin can be regarded as unlucky, because they have been gathered near the cart, even if they want to run, it is too late, and they were blown up for a while, and their stumps flew around, crying dad and calling mother!
By the time all 15 carts exploded, more than 300 bandits had already laid down more than 200 of them, and only a few dozen of them survived, and all of them were injured. How dare they fight with the people who are in ambush at this moment, in fact, let alone fighting, they don't even see what the other party looks like!
At this time, the people on the mountain no longer used bird guns, but raised their swords and guns one after another, and rushed down the mountain with a loud roar. The bandits had already been frightened, and they all followed the pangolin in the direction of Qianzhai and retreated.
The pangolin was the fastest runner, and he was so distressed that he shed tears while running, secretly thinking that stealing chickens and rice this time would not make it impossible to steal rice, not only did he not catch half a pearl agate, but he lost all his old capital!
But he only cared about being sad, and he was so cold that a person jumped up in the grass on one side of his body, and stabbed him viciously!
Originally, with the skills of a pangolin, this knife could be avoided. But at this time, his eyes were hazy with tears, and he was panicked, so he didn't pay attention at all!
Just heard a "click", and the pangolin's big human head rolled out "bone-and-bone".
And the person who killed him was also sprayed with blood in the cavity, but he laughed excitedly: "The bandit leader asked me to kill Li Laiheng!" ”
