Chapter 36: Martyrdom
More than a dozen people guarding the gate at the door immediately surrounded Liu Si and slashed at Liu Si with a simple knife in their hands. Seeing this, Liu Tong and the others came down one after another to join the battle, and the teenagers, fifties and sixties in other positions in the ancestral hall rushed over with knives.
Liu Tong originally saw their age and couldn't bear to do anything with them, but seeing that they had no hesitation, the fierce gods came evilly, and there was no mercy in terms of age at all, and with a knife in hand, they were warriors!
With a pick, Canglong Stick picked up a young man who sneaked up on Liu Si, and smashed it into the air, knocking down a few people who rushed over, Wu Ji, Liu Yin, Liu Zi and others also opened a killing ring, and dozens of people fell down in an instant.
These men were not warriors, though they had weapons in their hands.
At this time, someone had already removed the wooden stake against the gate, opened the door, dozens of guards rushed in, Mo knives flew, and suddenly, the man who rushed forward and several women who were frantically scratching and biting were killed.
Other old people, women, and children hid by the wall and in the corner of the house crying and screaming, some of them were trembling, and some of them were silent, looking at Liu Tong and the others with bloodshot eyes.
The gate opened, and the sunlight shone in through the door and the open roof, and Liu Tong saw Guo Bi, kneeling in the ancestral hall, lying on the ground in front of the ancestral tablet.
The guards scattered, using a Mo knife to form a circle around Liu Tong, Liu Tong led everyone and walked towards Guo Bi, from time to time someone jumped up and pounced on Liu Tong, all of whom were slashed to death by the guards, going forward and one after another, the scene was extremely weird and bloody!
When Liu Tong walked behind Guo Bi, no one who was not afraid of death finally pounced on him.
Liu Tong didn't look at Guo Bi, took two steps forward, and saw that the shrine was full of spiritual seats, Liu Tong looked carefully, some of the old ones were the ancestors of the Guo family, and the closest people had two celebrities!
Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu! Guo Tu Guo Gongze!
Guo Bi is in their spiritual position! Liu Tong naturally understood why Guo Jiabao wanted to kill him. Although Yuan Shao died of illness, it was also because his father defeated him and urged him to go on the road, while Guo Tu and Yuan Shao's son were killed by Liu Kuan's men!
"Who are you Guo Tu?" Liu Tong vaguely felt that Guo Bi should be Guo Tu's brother or cousin or something,
I only heard Guo Bi's old voice, "Brother Nai Gongze, hate the sky and not me, I can't kill you and other thieves, avenge Yuan Gong, and hate the third brother!" ”
"Hou Ye, Hou Ye." At this time, someone ran into the door and called Liu Tong. Liu Tong turned his head and saw that it was Liu Wu, and then turned around.
"The people chasing us have gone down the mountain!"
"So fast!" Liu Tong thought that Xuancheng and they should not find out that they had left early until after dawn, but he still underestimated them!
Before Liu Tong's voice fell, suddenly there was a chorus of cries from the ancestral hall, Liu Tong turned to look, and saw that Guo Bi's head had rolled to the side, and Wu Ji was wiping the big knife on Guo Bi's body.
"You traitor, you dare to do the act of a gutter rat!" Wu Ji retracted the knife while chattering.
Liu Tong pointed at Wu Ji, wanted to speak and stopped, and then thought about it, this idiot is still so reckless!
Hey, kill it, it's useless to keep it, Guo Bi is dead, this group of people has no leader and backbone, so it's easier to control it.
"Block all exits! Get ready to meet the enemy! Liu Tong glanced at the scene and saw that there were still 300 old and weak women and children.
"Get it all out of here!" Liu Tong heard Liu Si standing at the other door of the ancestral hall and shouted inside.
At this time, nearly 100 people came out of it, all of them young women, ranging from twelve or thirteen to their thirties, with some young children.
At this time, Liu Yin also kicked the opposite door open, and shouted for the people inside to come out, and there were nearly 100 people, also young women and young children!
Liu Tong has no time to deal with it, and it is important to meet the enemy.
"Liu Yin, you lead people to block the exit, guard these people, if there is any change, kill them!" Liu Tong raised his voice high enough for everyone in the room to hear.
"Master Hou, there should be a large number of weapons in the dock fort!" Liu Si followed behind Liu Tong and said.
"Well, Liu Zi, you take someone to find it, and move more bows and arrows!"
Liu Tong and Liu Si came directly to the female wall of the gate, and saw four or five hundred people walking towards this side in the distance, and a few horses were far ahead.
"Sanzi, you guys put on their clothes and stand up!" Liu Si said.
"Did this work?"
"It's too strange for one not to stand, I hope they think we've been drugged, don't doubt it." Liu Si smiled bitterly.
"Leave half of the people to lie in ambush behind the female wall, prepare more bows and arrows, and half of them ambush on both sides of the gate, let them in, first with horse crossbows, and then with Mo knives. Hope to catch them off guard! ”
At this time, Liu Tong had to pin his hopes on the person who reported the news, hoping that he could tell Xuan Cheng that his person had been poured out of medicine. Otherwise, they will only besiege and not attack, or attack from all sides, and they will have few people, and it will be uncomfortable enough.
At this time, Liu Tong saw the red carp leading his red rabbit horse. Liu informed the red carp's thoughts, if he was really defeated, the red rabbit horse was fast, and he could escape with Liu Tong. But it was impossible for Liu Tong to leave the other robes, and leaving the guard battalion commander before had made him uncomfortable to this day.
At this time, Liu Tong saw Liu Zi with more than a dozen people pushing a large number of bows, arrows and spears in ox carts.
"Master Hou, there is a lot of money, weapons and food in the dock fort!" Liu Zi's face was happy.
What's the use of these things, we don't intend to fight a protracted war! Liu Tong was bitter in his heart, if the war horse was not drugged, with the flat terrain outside the dock fort and the advantage of his cavalry, although the opponent was several times the number of his own, he could also fight!
Enough weapons are enough, no matter how much it is, it is useless. Now it seems that the key is the shuttle when they enter the dock fort!
Bows and spears were carried up to the women's wall, and the people were laid in ambush. Wait for the arrival of the enemy.
The time is short and long.
When Liu Tong heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching, he waved his big hand, and the two guards opened the gate. Liu Tong didn't want to leave the other party with the opportunity to ask questions and call the door!
I don't know if it's my luck or the lack of experience in military formations of such masters, Liu Tong only heard the sound of horses' hooves suddenly intensifying, and the crowd outside rushed in with a roar!
When he heard the horses approaching the gate, Liu shouted, his voice full of surprise and surprise.
"Shoot!"
The guards on both sides of the gate suddenly flashed to the door, the crossbows of the horses were fired, and the guards on the female wall were exposed from behind the female wall, bows and arrows rained down, and spears were like arrows.
Liu Tong saw that the leaders of Guojiabao who were leading the way at the front should have fallen off their horses one after another! And Xuan Cheng, Xuan Song, Chu Yang and others in the back kept dialing arrows and "javelins" and retreated. The Xiang Yong, who kept falling behind him, blocked the way of retreat, and the master of Taiqing and the seven "Thirteen Bao Yilang" finally got out of range.
Liu informed that the opportunity was fleeting and that it should be rushed. Otherwise, there are many people on the other side, and when they recover their strength, they will be in trouble. Now is the best chance to wipe out their living forces.
"Mo Dao line up, charge!" Liu Tong shouted loudly!
Dozens of guards at the door threw down their crossbows and rushed over with their swords! Xiang Yong, who was not riding a horse, was rushing backwards with his back to the gate, because there were people and horses blocking in front of him, and it was crowded, and the people in the last row suddenly ushered in a sharp and cold light Mo knife, and rows of people were split backs, shoulders, waists, and even heads.
The guards came out of the cage like fierce tigers, devouring everything in front of them, and when Xiang Yong turned to resist, the heavy Mo knife smashed the Pu knife in their hands into the air, and then made up for the decisive knife.
Liu Tong coldly watched these villagers fall, he also knew that these were all nearby people, but they chose to attach themselves to Guo Bi and choose to die for him, that is, they chose to be martyred for him, or for Yuan Shao and Guo Tu!
The way of the military formation, momentum first, the two strong meet, the brave wins! Xuan Cheng saw that Xiang Yong was frightened and collapsed, and rushed forward with the one behind, and the bows and arrows and "javelins" of the female wall shot intensively again. More than a dozen people with strong martial arts easily pushed away the arrows and spears that were weakened, but they didn't dare to step forward again.
The guards were like sheep in a flock, driving and killing at the same time, hoping that the sheep would run slower, and the arrows on the women's wall shot at the periphery, which also formed an obstacle to them.
Although the incident happened suddenly, although it was controlled by fear, after a long time, the villagers gradually sobered up in a pool of blood. Under the constraints of several leaders, they gradually stabilized their positions, strengthened their defenses, and slowly formed a formation and slowly retreated.
Liu informed that once they withdrew from the firing range, once they gained a firm foothold, they still had a numerical advantage, and this formation still could not fundamentally solve the problem. What's more, let those dozen or twenty masters react, these eighty or ninety people are really not their opponents.
I've got a big move! Liu Tong made up his mind!
