(It’s tiring, but it’s still done. Please vote for it, brothers)
Liu Zhenming lay motionless on the ground like a sculpture.
Woo…
The locomotive roared and drove out of the tunnel. Liu Zhenming didn't have much time to judge. If the train was slow, all the trains would run out of the tunnel. Then, everything would be in vain.
There is a British military flag on the body of the car, and soldiers in military uniforms can be vaguely seen.
All this was enough. Liu Zhenming quickly put down the telescope at almost the moment the locomotive came out, and then quickly lit the fuse.
laugh…
The sparks of light represented Liu Zhenming's hope. When he touched the fuse, he was like a cheetah, quickly using all his strength to escape.
In the carriage, Tristan felt his eyes light up. He looked out the window greedily, admiring the sudden light, but inadvertently saw a figure in the grass beside the railway track.
Am I dazzled? Or is it really a person? Tristan stood up and was about to speak.
Suddenly, there was a soft sound from the tunnel entrance, followed by deafening bursts of explosions.
boom…
Rocks collapsed, soil splashed everywhere, and the arched surface above the tunnel exit swished down with rocks and soil amidst the explosion. Suddenly, the entire mountain at the tunnel exit collapsed.
ah…
The British soldiers in the fourth carriage opened their eyes in horror, and let out panicked screams. They were in a mess in the carriage, hiding in all directions, and then watched helplessly as rocks came down on them, and the screams suddenly stopped.
The rock at the exit of the tunnel happened to be on top of the fourth carriage. Some of the British soldiers in the carriage were crushed to death on the spot, some remained in the tunnel, and a few were outside the tunnel.
However, the explosion seemed to have caused a landslide. Piles of mud and rocks continued to roll down from above, and soon the exposed part of the fourth carriage was submerged.
Before the Canadians in the carriage in the tunnel could take a breath, there was another strong explosion behind them. The light coming from the entrance of the tunnel suddenly disappeared, and the entire mountain appeared to be shaky and fluctuating.
Fortunately, the tunnel in the middle has not collapsed.
However, the tunnel that collapsed at both ends was like a big coffin. No one came to save it, and it would be extremely difficult for the people inside to get out.
Due to inertia, the locomotive and one to three carriages that drove out of the tunnel were still dragging mud and rocks and moved forward for about one meter. However, in the strong explosion, the train driver felt that the carriages were shaking up and down, left and right, and he made a prompt decision.
Pull the brakes, otherwise the train may be forced to roll off the track.
"What happened?" After the explosion stopped, Mohot and Tristan looked at each other.
"General, I saw someone running past the entrance of the tunnel. Someone may have installed explosives there. I'm afraid we are about to fight." Tristan swallowed with some difficulty and quickly pulled out the pistol from the holster.
"It was done by someone, who? Who has the guts to cause trouble here?" Mohot was so angry that his nose almost became crooked. He was about to arrive in Kamloops, but this happened.
"It seems like he's a yellow man." Tristan felt a bit bitter in his mouth. He originally thought he was an ant-like Chinese, but he seemed to have set up an ambush here.
"What!" Mohot shouted and immediately calmed down.
"Let the soldiers stay in the carriage to face the enemy. Don't panic. Drunni knows that we will arrive in Kamloops today. If we don't arrive, he will definitely find out the reason. Therefore, we only need to hold on until Drunni leads the troops to rescue us.
That's it." Mohot quickly gave the order...
When several panicked messengers heard his words, they all felt happy and quickly turned around to pass on the order.
At this time, Liu Zhenming also fled back to his own position. He was almost deafened by the loud explosion, but he still ran back safely.
Liu Zhenming would not be happy if only three of the more than ten-car trains were left outside.
"attack!"
Liu Zhenming raised his right hand and lowered it heavily. The trumpeter beside him immediately puffed up his cheeks and began to play the trumpet.
Woohoo…
This trumpet was captured from the Canadian Army and ironically became the trumpet used to attack the British.
The familiar sound of the trumpet made the British soldiers in the carriage in the valley secretly stand at the window and look around in fear.
"Kill!"
Before they could react.
Boom, boom!
All armies launched their mortars first, and shells were fired everywhere around the carriage.
The counterattack began.
On both sides of the valley, after the troops heard the order, there was still a pause, and they all poured out their anger downwards.
Boom, boom, bang bang bang.
The sound of artillery, gunfire, and shouts intertwined together, once again playing the prelude to the attack, and they all let out a desperate roar.
"General, we only have three carriages out of the tunnel. The other carriages are buried in the tunnel. There are only more than 300 soldiers left in the three carriages." The British Chief of Staff Tristan gave the bad news.
Told Mohot.
Mohot was distracted for a while, but he didn't expect that the situation was worse than he imagined. He tentatively asked: "Can't the soldiers in the tunnel get out from the other end?"
"There seemed to be an explosion from the other side of the mountain." Although Tristan didn't say it explicitly, it was like telling him not to report any hope to the soldiers in the tunnel.
"It doesn't matter. As long as we stick to the carriage, there is nothing we can do about those despicable Chinese. When Druni comes, we can rescue the soldiers in the tunnel. By then, these despicable sneak attackers will go to hell." Mohot
It's like comforting myself and others.
However, the sound of gunfire outside ruthlessly shattered his luck again.
"How can those Chinese come here with cannons?" Mohot was as deflated as a rubber ball.
The ambush area of the Self-Rescue Army was only about 200 meters away from the railway line. All the soldiers were crouched among the rocks and kept shooting down. At first, they hit many British soldiers, but when they hid in the carriage,
After the body is kept alive and dead, the killing rate is much lower.
The more he beat Liu Zhenming, the more he frowned. The enemy was too cunning to wait for reinforcements. This iron carriage was really good for defense. Are we going to lead everyone down now?
No, this will cause too many casualties, so let's bombard them with mortars for a while first.
Liu Zhenming immediately gathered nine mortars together and ordered the first carriage to be bombarded at the same time. Previously, the mortars were used dispersedly and bombarded at will.
Liu Zhenming did this, and the effect was much better. Although the carriage was not blown to pieces, shrapnel flew in from everywhere. If you were lucky, some shells fell directly from the window and exploded inside the carriage.
