In short, Xu Xingxia was already quite satisfied with such a hurry. This was more than half a day earlier than he had estimated. The skirmishers of the Eagle Cavalry, from their supreme commander, received encouraging praise, and the fatigue of the long journey seemed to disappear in an instant. Eventually, they ended up in a strange canyon.

The canyon is surrounded by jagged rocks. Most of the stones, all red, are a bit like weathered rock. In some places, the weathered rocks have also formed strange arch bridges. People passing by must pass under the arched bridge. In other places, the weathered rocks form a narrow spine channel. People passing by must also pass by carefully. If you accidentally fall down, it is estimated that it will be more than lucky.

The stragglers of the Eagle Cavalry Army all felt quite strange about this canyon. They didn't understand why Xu Xingxia would lead them here. It feels like such a place should never be on the prairie. Prairie, prairie, as the name suggests, is naturally a grassy prairie, how can there be such a canyon?

As if seeing everyone's doubts, Xu Xingxia said slowly: "This is Lanxing Gorge, located between Serten Mountain and Wula Mountain. The Mongols call it the Land of Heavenly Punishment. Fifty miles to the west, is Wuliang Suhai. Three hundred and fifty miles to the east is the city of naturalization. The Tartars from the west must pass through here if they want to come from the east, and the Mongols from the east will go west! ”

When Feng Qingwu and the others heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked again.

God, Xu Xingxia actually took them into the hinterland of the Tartars!

The land of heavenly punishment, this is the land of heavenly punishment! In ancient times, the Mongols were in civil strife, and this area was one of the fiercest battlefields. It is estimated that in this canyon, I don't know how many warriors' corpses were buried! Those red rocks are probably stained red by the blood of the warriors! The appearance of the white-clothed army here is indeed too dangerous!

You must know that it is not far from here to the city of Naturalization to the east. Xu Xingxia himself said that three hundred and fifty miles to the east is the Naturalization City! If they encountered a large army of the Mongol Tumut tribe, that is, the cavalry of Lindan Khan, the consequences would be quite bad. Even the arrogant Eagle Cavalry stragglers would not think that they with only forty or fifty people would be able to take advantage of Lin Dan Khan, who had 50,000 iron lance cavalry.

However, since Xu Xingxia personally appeared here with them, it shows that the adventure is quite worthwhile. Will Xu Xingxia not know about the danger of Blue Star Gorge? Of course not! Wang Xia and Mao Thirteen are not fools! Moreover, since they stayed in the Blue Star Gorge and did not march to Naturalization City, it means that the target of their attack is definitely not Lin Dan Khan. Lin Dan Khan wouldn't have anything to do and run to the Blue Star Gorge to hang out. Xu Xingxia is going to ambush someone else. I just don't know, who is Xu Xingxia going to ambush?

"Everyone, hurry up and rest! Recharge your batteries! Xu Xingxia gave the order.

The stragglers of the Eagle Cavalry Army were indeed very tired after a long journey of three hundred and eighty miles. After receiving the order, they immediately seized the time to eat a little dry food, drank a little water, and fell asleep. As for all the war horses, they are housed in the innermost part of the canyon. These well-trained war horses can hold out for a long time as long as they have forage and water. Wang Xia and Mao Thirty-two were busy in the canyon, and no one knew what they were busy with.

They lurked quietly in the Blue Star Gorge for a day and a night, and their physical strength was basically restored. The arrangement of Wang Xia and Mao Thirteen is also basically completed. All that's left is to wait quietly. Every skirmisher of the Eagle Cavalry was eagerly waiting for the target they were going to attack. They all knew very well that the one who could let Xu Xingxia personally lead the troops to ambush him was definitely not an ordinary person. It should be his honor to have such treatment.

"Attention! The goal appears! ”

"Attention! The goal appears! Don't be exposed! ”

By the afternoon of the next day, the target they were going to attack finally appeared. It was a group of more than a hundred Tartar cavalry, carrying a large amount of supplies. There is also a carriage in the middle. The carriage was black, with some strange patterns on the outside, like stars, like the moon, and there seemed to be a temple in the middle. The appearance of the carriage made the stragglers of the Eagle Cavalry Army immediately sharpen their eyes. If their guess was not wrong, the target of Xu Xingxia's ambush should be in this black carriage.

In the Tartar tribes, the carriage was originally a bit abrupt. The Tartars actually don't like to use horse-drawn carriages. The march of the carriage was too slow. Ordinary Tartar women can actually ride horses. When traveling long distances, Tartar women would choose to ride horses like men and did not need a carriage. The appearance of the carriage can only show that the characters in the carriage are more special. Or, she doesn't know how to ride a horse. Or, it's her identity and doesn't need to ride a horse.

"It's ...... Tessna! Feng Qingwu suddenly exclaimed in a low voice.

"That's right, it's Tessna!" Xu Xingxia finally revealed the final mystery.

That's right, it was the shamanic priestess Tesna's horse team that he was going to ambush. As a priestess of shamanic religion practiced by the Tartars, Tesna was able to ride horses. However, in order to maintain a certain mysterious surname of the shaman, she often chooses to take a carriage when she goes out of the house. Her carriage is all black, and the pattern on its appearance represents the identity of this shaman. The average Tatar, whenever they see this carriage, will bow down religiously.

Naturally, all around the carriage were her followers and guards. There were not many of them, only about a hundred, but each of them seemed to be quite strong. The weapons and equipment they carry are also quite sophisticated. Being able to become Tessna's bodyguard, riding and archery hand-to-hand combat, and other skills, of course, is needless to say, it must be the best of the best. This made the stragglers of the Eagle Cavalry Army feel a huge pressure, and there was a bit of a taste of enthusiasm. There are only forty or fifty of them, but Tessna's guards have hundreds, so it's not easy to do it!

Xu Xingxia said coldly: "Attention! Our mission this time is to destroy this Tessna! It's best to be caught alive! If you can't be caught alive, kill it directly! ”

After a slight pause, Xu Xingxia said in a deep voice: "Everyone keep a distance, don't fight with them in close combat!" These people are all believers in the Immortal Heaven, and they are not afraid of death! We're going to destroy them from a distance with muskets! Do you understand? ”

The stragglers hurriedly replied: "Understood! ”

Xu Xingxia waved his hand vigorously and shouted in a deep voice: "Kill!" ”

"Boom!"

There was a loud sound of the sky cracking and the earth cracking.

This was Wang Xia who took the lead in throwing a huge explosive bag.

Tessna's horse team obviously did not expect that in this place of Blue Star Gorge, in the core hinterland of their prairie, they would actually encounter an attack. Therefore, when entering the Blue Star Gorge, they did not raise their vigilance, nor did they carefully check the surroundings of the Blue Star Gorge, so they directly chose to pass. When the explosive pack exploded, they were right under the arch bridge.

The huge explosion directly broke the arch bridge, and countless large and small rubbles fell down, smashing the Tartar guards below into a mess. Some people were killed on the spot, others were stoned to death on the spot, and many more were injured. The inside of the canyon was full of splattered blood. The passage inside the Blue Star Gorge is not very spacious, and a bag of explosives is enough to block all the roads. For a time, the Tartar guards were in chaos.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was another earth-shattering loud noise, which led to an even more wedding.

This is Mao Thirteen behind the horse team, throwing explosives packets. The purpose of this is, of course, to cut off the retreat of the horse team. The huge air wave of the explosion shook the stones on both sides of the canyon and rolled down, completely blocking the canyon. It would take at least three or four hours to clear a passage. Obviously, in battle, this is absolutely impossible.

The way in front was blocked, and the retreat in the back was cut off, and Rao was a calm Tartar guard, and he couldn't calm down. They did not know who the attackers were, how many there were, and what kind of weaponry. They tried to fight back, but they couldn't see where the attackers were. The smoke screen from the explosion, as well as the dust that stirred up, seriously obstructed their vision, and they blindly fired arrows indiscriminately, but there was no effect.

"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! "The leader of the Tartar guards kept shouting loudly for the Tartar guards to fight bravely. Wielding his scimitar, he rode forward desperately, trying to find the attacker. However, if you can't even find where your attackers are, how can you effectively fight back? The arrows they shot fell on the rocks around the canyon, and they had no effect except to stir up more dust.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The Eagle Cavalry stragglers opened fire one after another.

The guns rang out in one piece, and one by one the Mini bullets whizzed away.

Around the Blue Star Gorge, there was chaos all of a sudden. The Tartar cavalry, who were caught off guard, fell several at once. The lethality of the Mini bullet is indeed considerable, as long as it is hit by the Mini bullet, whether it is dead or not, it will definitely have no combat effectiveness. The Minnie bullets that missed their targets hit the rocks on both sides of the canyon, and they also stirred up a lot of dust.

After a volley of guns, the dozen or so Tartar guards who walked in the front fell to the ground, including the leader of the Tartar guards. His body was hit by at least three Minnie bullets, Rao is Da Luo Jin Xian, and it is impossible for him to survive. He was so obvious that he attracted the firepower of at least five Eagle Cavalry skirmishers. It would really be a miracle if he could survive under the firing of the five moon guns. It's a pity that the miracle did not appear.
