Faced with the sudden change, Jeffrey was stunned.

The murderous soldier did not stop, after he stabbed Leopold to death, he turned around and slashed at another soldier, cutting off the man's head, and when he was about to kill again, he was swarmed by other soldiers and hacked to death.

"Jeffrey, you traitor!" A soldier roared at Jeffrey with a blood-dripping sword.

"No, it's not me!" Jeffrey had realized that he was caught up in a conspiracy, and then he was at a loss for words.

"Kill him and avenge the captain!" The soldiers shouted loudly and rushed towards Jeffrey and the others.

The scene was suddenly chaotic.

Some of the people who were on Jeffrey's side remained neutral because they couldn't figure out what was going on, and some turned against Jeffrey, after all, they were loyal to the Duwei Mansion, and they supported Jeffrey at first just worried about their family, but now they watched Jeffrey "assassinate" Leopold, so they affirmed that Jeffrey was a traitor.

Only a few people who had a good relationship with Jeffrey and believed in Jeffrey joined him against the others who pounced on him, but these people together were less than a hundred.

"They're already in chaos, Brother Di, what do you think?" Minos took the opportunity to retreat into the courtyard.

Tang Dou complained in his heart, "I'm not Yuanfang, what can I think?" Rolling his eyes, he said, "Mr. Minos, if you can't understand what to do in such a situation, your decades of branch manager will really be in vain!" ”

Minos listened to Tang Dou's words, laughed instead of anger, and touched the beard on his face: "Little Brother Di is happy!" Donald, let's kill it. Others are targeting me for the side with more people! ”

Donald immediately understood what Minos meant, and the others didn't understand it for a while, but they also subconsciously started to act.

In fact, the situation is very simple, the side with more people is the side that is ready to kill everyone in the branch, and the possibility of victory in the infighting is also very high, once they kill Jeffrey and others, then the next target is the people in the branch, at that time they have already killed the red eyes, where will there be any reason, once they do it, they can't stop if they don't kill everyone.

Jeffrey's side can fight for it, as long as they win, then they can become the hidden allies of the branch, if their family has been killed, then when they have nowhere to go and need to protect themselves, the branch will become their foothold, so that it is equivalent to increasing the resistance of the branch.

And more importantly, with Jeffrey and others here, it will be easier for the Metropolitan Guard to send people to them. Although Suyat controlled the actions of the entire Metropolitan Guard, he could not control everyone in the Metropolitan Guard.

As soon as the people from Shangxiang's branch joined the battle, it immediately caused changes, especially those guys who hid behind the wall and shot with a strong crossbow, the strong crossbow was huge, and the soul cultivators below the silver level would be easily killed, and if they were not careful enough, the soul cultivators of the silver level would also be fatally damaged.

And most of the troops are mainly bronze-level, so these strong crossbows are extremely lethal to them.

After being overturned by a dozen people in a row, several squad leaders on the larger side gathered together for a little discussion, and immediately divided a wave of people to attack the branch, all of whom were armed with heavy shields and crossbows, and launched a strong attack on the branch.

However, although the heavy shield can protect them, but the hand crossbow in their hands has no way to take the people in the branch, first, the people in the branch are hiding behind the wall, only a little bit is exposed in the shooting hole, unless it happens to hit the shooting hole, otherwise it is impossible to hurt the other party, and secondly, the hand crossbow is aimed at unprotected targets, but Minos has not only collected a hundred strong crossbows over the years, but also collected more than a hundred heavy armor. The shooters were heavily armoured, and even if the occasional crossbow arrow from a crossbow passed through the shooting hole, it was impossible to really hurt them.

Only one unlucky ghost was shot in the eye and killed when he was probe, but his death did not frighten the people in the branch, but only aroused the blood of these desert people. Some of the brave women were armed with crossbows, while others were not brave enough to go straight up, but dared to help with the crossbowmen behind the crossbowmen—the powerful crossbows were powerful, but they were extremely slow to be wound. Because there were not many crossbowmen, each crossbowman was assigned two strong crossbows, followed by a person who specialized in helping with the winding.

Tang Dou stood on top of the corner tower, his Roaring Sky Bow was the most powerful weapon in the field, and when an arrow was fired, even a gold-level master couldn't stand it, let alone below the gold-level level. If he wanted to, he could have turned on the bullet time and killed more than half of the enemies outside by himself. However, he did not do this, first shot the three squad leaders of the other side in a row, so that the other party did not dare to stand up and command the troops, and then killed the enemy who was too close to the courtyard of the branch, and then stopped.

He had to keep his strength and be alert enough to wait for the terrible things that were about to happen.

Darkly, the visceral fear became more real.

Jeffrey and the others got the help of the branch staff, and soon gained the upper hand, and the two sides fought in the dark, at this time there was no so-called robe at all, as long as it was right, it was life and death.

Originally, there were many people and one side had a huge advantage, but firstly, they lost their unified command, and now as long as someone dares to come out to command, they will be immediately shot by Tang Dou, and secondly, the strong crossbow shot from behind the courtyard wall of the branch is really too deadly. The elite of the Metropolitan Guard Army is only a silver-level soldier at the captain level, and no matter how elite an ordinary soldier is, it is also a bronze level, and the strong crossbow can be said to aim at one and kill one.

If it were changed to a regular battlefield, it would be impossible for the crossbow to exert such great power, but now it is a street battle, and the distance and space of the street make it impossible for the soldiers to have enough fighting space, and the distance is too close to dodge.

On the other hand, when the team set off, they didn't expect that there would be a tough battle, and they used light weapons, and the heavy shield was already the heaviest weapon in their hands, but it was this kind of heavy shield made of iron and wood, covered with iron and raw cowhide, and it couldn't stop Tang Dou's roaring bow and tungsten steel arrows, as long as someone dared to approach the courtyard, they would be shot immediately.

How can such a battle be won if you are only beaten but cannot fight back? Therefore, it did not take long for the side with more people to become the side with fewer people, and finally broke and fled.

"Brothers, what do you choose? Kill us too? Jeffrey was covered in blood, and looked at the dozens of neutrals with murderous vigour.

"We have no intention of fighting anyone, we just want to go home and see!" The neutral side chose a representative to stand up and speak.

Jeffrey nodded, came to the door of the branch yard, first stuck the bloody war knife on the ground, and then gave a fist salute: "Jeffrey, thank you for your support!" ”

"We're just trying to protect ourselves!" Minos stepped forward: "Captain Jeffrey, it's useless for me to say the specifics, you should see with your own eyes." Take a good look at what the hell is going on in this Anduma. Minos is here to stop you from going home, but if you don't have a place to go for the time being, I'm welcome to come at any time at the Anduma branch of the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce! If you find an injured person who can still be rescued, you can also send it over! ”

Jeffrey didn't have any nonsense, nodded, and then said to the warriors who had been following him: "Brothers, let's go home now and see what happened!" ”

The warriors answered in unison and rushed out of the darkness. The neutrals also departed, not all of whom were Andumaans, but not all non-Andumaans would raise their butcher's knives against Anduma.

"The situation just now has proved that the other party deliberately wants to provoke a fight. They only care about blood sacrifices, and the others have long been ignored! Tang Dou came to Minos's side and pointed to the ground outside the courtyard.

Minos looked at Tang Dou's hand, and his face became even more ugly. At this time, the streets had become clean, and there was no blood, no corpses, and it was so clean that people thought that the fight that had just happened was just an illusion.

"I've already asked everyone in the store, and I've asked for something!" Minos said in a deep voice: "The religion I mentioned is called 'Sand Source Sect', which means the place where the desert originated, but because there are no real believers in the branch, and everyone is just hearsay, it is now certain that the Sand Source Sect is real, and they worship a god called Azrael, and it is not clear what the demon beast they claim to incarnate is!" ”

Seeing the disappointed look on Tang Dou's face, Minos also said with some embarrassment: "It's easy to collect this information in normal times, but I really didn't expect that something related would happen before, so I haven't paid much attention to it." The belief of desert people has long become a habit to change twice in three days! ”

Minos was right when he said that the desert people needed a spiritual belief to comfort their hearts because of their hard lives. But with the exception of a limited number of large oases in the desert, it is possible for all other oases to exist for decades, then disappear and reappear after a few decades.

Anyone who lives in the desert knows that no place is truly permanent unless it is a great oasis.

Because of this, there are always hundreds of various sects in the desert. The state religion of the Purple Gold Kingdom itself is the Vermilion Bird Sect, although the four major sects will not forcibly promote their own religion, but their own strong influence still exists. This also caused many religions that could not be passed down in the mainland of Zijin to go to the desert to preach, so the religions of the Haisha Desert were very mixed. How could Minos, without the ability to foresee, care about a secret religion?

"Now is not the time to think about this. The defeat of this thousand-man team will definitely attract more troops, and they will also come with heavy equipment. Next time it won't be so easy to deal with! Tang Dou diverted the topic.

"But we can't do anything better!" Minos sighed.

"Perhaps...... And also! Tang Dou smiled mysteriously: "I'll go out for a while, maybe I can find a few helpers to come back." (To be continued.) )
