Chapter 16: Heavenly Dao Divine Sword

"General, look at his dog-fighting appearance!" The high-minded attitude of the master of the Inner Mansion suddenly made the guards unhappy.

Xuanyi waved his hand to stop Xiao Wang, the indignant captain of the guard, and somewhat weakly hung the heavy battering axe on the war horse led by another guard, and then climbed onto the war horse with both hands.

"Don't say more! Follow me into the city to clear out the remnants of the enemy!" Xuanyi shouted in a deep voice, and a group of guards rode on their horses and followed Xuanyi towards the city.

At this time, the sound of killing in the inner city of Danyang shook the sky, and the soldiers of the forward battalion could be seen everywhere chasing and clearing the resistance forces in the city, and more than 2,000 people of the central guard and rear guard troops had all broken into the city.

There are only two gates in Danyang Town, and the only way to retreat after the main gate is broken through is the back gate, and the forward battalion soldiers who broke into the city quickly split out and outflanked the back gate under the leadership of an officer, intending to cut off the enemy's retreat in the city.

Xuanyi leaped in from the collapsed city gate with a horse chopping knife in his hand, and the pale cyan stone streets were stained purple and black with blood, and the eyes were full of devastation. Xuanyi carefully avoided the corpses everywhere, and silently stopped in front of a burning house somewhere.

"Dog thief, destroy my home, die!" an old man who had collapsed to the ground suddenly pounced from the side of the house, and he swung a farm tool that Xuanyi could not name.

"Poof!" the old man thrashed forward, then stood up with convulsions, his throat trembling but he didn't say anything. Wang Zhe, the captain of the personal guard on Xuanyi's side, quickly stabbed him to death with a knife, Wang Zhe put the knife into the sheath and kicked the corpse away, and his wolf-like eyes scanned the surroundings fiercely.

"Hey!" Xuanyi looked at the curled corpse under the wall in the distance and sighed: "Let's go, go to the town guard mansion!"

The magnificent cavalry brigade gradually faded away under the terrified gaze of the remnants of the Danyang people, and some people couldn't suppress their sadness and cried bitterly, occasionally accompanied by a few of the most vicious curses in the world.

"The Lord of the Overseer has an order! Slaughter the city for three days to deter the thieves!" A group of masters of the inner government dressed in brocade clothes galloped wildly in the city, shouting loudly along the way, and the sound of internal force soon spread this order throughout the inner city.

"Kill, kill, kill!" the forward battalion soldier who heard the order became more and more excited, and let out a beastly roar. The people who were already red-eyed were even more desperate to search for the remnants of the people in the city. According to the military regulations of the Great Liang, the soldiers themselves can keep at least half of the property seized in the battle array, and the slaughter of the city is naturally a kind of battle array, and no one will have trouble with money.

Xuan Yi, who heard the order to slaughter the city, was shocked in his heart, and even the dozens of guards who followed him were all happy, and their eyes flashed with bloodthirsty light.

"General, can you let the brothers also go to his vote, this military salary has been owed for more than half a year... Wang Zhe approached Xuanyi and whispered to him, and the guards behind him cast their eyes one after another, and their eyes of hope were like scorching stabs around Xuanyi.

The Liang Dynasty fell into the quagmire of civil war, and even the pro-army directly under the imperial court could not pay the salary, and the morale of the legions in other places was conceivable, Xuanyi nodded helplessly: "Go!"

"Obey!" Wang Zhe suddenly agreed, leading a group of guards to run away in an instant, for them, the top priority is to loot property, otherwise they will have to be scolded by their families many times after returning home empty-handed after a big battle.

Xuanyi drove his horse alone along the long street towards the town guard mansion, the last resistance of the fair party in the city was concentrated here, along the way, the defenders on the city wall had been slaughtered by Yang Invincible Zhou Kenan and the two people, some large city defense equipment were broken into pieces by the angry forward battalion soldiers, Yang Invincible commanded the avant-garde army killed and wounded more than 700 people, this known as the most elite unit of the forward battalion can almost be regarded as disabled.

Fang Yu was wearing a brown coat, and his thin body was almost completely wrapped inside, which looked extremely incongruous.

Zhang Xiao, the captain of the personal guard, gave up supporting the defenders on the city wall as early as the city was broken, and dozens of personal guards stubbornly chiseled through the routed soldiers and fleeing people who flocked to the back gate.

"My lord, retreat quickly, and more people will flock here later!" Zhang Xiao shouted with a knife to split through several rout soldiers who were trying to squeeze over.

The thunderous sound of horses' hooves sounded again in the distance, and a certain cavalry team of the forward battalion guard rushed to the battlefield, and the knights waved their huge swords and slashed at the scattered crowd of fleeing people, each blow taking several lives, and they kept driving the frightened crowd towards the narrow back gate like ducks.

The townsfolk who were dominated by fear rushed towards Fang Yu's position like crazy, even if Fang Yu's guards kept waving their knives to deter, it was useless, and the dozens of guards under him were like reefs washed by the waves, almost drowning.

"Hey, let's retreat!" Fang Yu, who was unwilling, sighed helplessly and gave the order to retreat.

"Obey!" Zhang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, his right hand struggled to pull up the reins of Fang Yu's war horse, and the long sword in his left hand stabbed out like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, and instantly cleared a small piece of space.

The officer of the forward battalion who pursued here from a distance was a certain capital belonging to the rear guard unit, and the head of the capital was named Qian Biao, who was a rare fierce general in the forward battalion. He raised his horsewhip and shouted: "Brothers, there is a big fish at the gate of the city, don't let him run away!

Hearing this, dozens of soldiers took out their crossbows and shot at Fang Yu's location, which caused an even greater riot among the fleeing crowds, and the crowd of people fleeing like headless flies caused a massive stampede.

Zhang Xiao walked ahead with the reins of his horse, and several guards held the removed doors and windows as shields to protect Fang Yu's side from arrows.

The pursuing knight was blocked by the crowd and could not advance an inch away, seeing that the crossbow arrows were shot several rounds and still insignificant, and Fang Yu and his party were already approaching the city gate, Qian Biao angrily hammered his palm, and then untied the heavy armor and rushed towards Fang Yu on horseback amid the exclamations of his subordinates.

Before joining the army, Qian Biao had been fighting in the largest gang in his hometown of Wenfeng City for many years, not only learned strong martial arts, but also had dozens of lives in his hands, and he was very ruthless to the enemy and more ruthless to himself. Seeing that this "big fish" was about to escape, Qian Biao simply went out to pursue it alone.

Qian Biao stepped on the shoulders of others and approached Fang Yu several times, and several guards behind Fang Yu immediately drew their knives and slashed at Qian Biao in the air. Their tactics are correct, people have almost no room in the air to borrow their strength, and there is no way to avoid it in the face of a knife in the face.

Qian Biao smiled "hehe", his strong body was forced to rise an inch in the air, and he could dodge a few slashes, and then he was short, and the whole person fell quickly towards several guards, and crashed straight into the arms of several people in front of him.

"Ahh

"Run!" the onlookers were frightened by the bloody scene and retreated to the rear.

Qian Biao pinched the heart in his hand and laughed playfully: "Keep running!"
