"Boom, boom," soon, the elite brigade of the city lord's mansion left the mansion, surrounded by several luxury carriages, heading west along the main street.
At the same time, 30,000 of the 50,000 Guards troops secretly withdrew from their positions and followed closely behind.
"The warlock team gathers and prepares to cast a large spell!"
General Xuan Mo Dao held the fire talisman in his hand and was about to give an order, but suddenly something shocking happened.
"Folks, these bastards are not human beings, they are beasts. We will fight with them for our wives and children!"
"The city of Huaibei County was looted by these beasts. I don't want to fight with them to death!"
"Fight, kill!"
Someone on the street shouted something, and then like a prairie fire, the shouts quickly spread throughout the city.
The people who had closed their doors tightly and trembled at home magically opened the doors and rushed out with various weapons.
On the street, soldiers from the Sichuan Army and the Sha Army were caught off guard and were thrown into chaos by the civilians who rushed out from around them and killed them.
"Bang bang bang," in mid-air, due to the confusion of the soldiers in the formation, the phantoms of the three battle formations were shattered.
Guchuan County originally had a population of more than 600,000. Coupled with the war and the influx of a large number of refugees, the current population of the city is close to 2 million.
In this era, everyone practices martial arts, everyone has weapons, and everyone breathes spiritual power. Even if they are not warriors, they still have considerable lethality.
Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. For a time, the streets, alleys, behind the roofs, and the city were filled with black people, waving weapons with red eyes.
The Sichuan Central Army and the Sha Clan Army, which entered the city with less than 100,000 troops, were like small boats trapped in the boundless ocean and were instantly submerged.
"Bang, bang, bang," the phantoms of the battle formation in mid-air were shattered one after another. Only two or three thousand of the defeated troops could escape.
Even among the strong men of the fourth and fifth levels, several of them had exhausted their spiritual power and were drowned by the endless crowd, leaving no trace of their corpses.
"How, how could this happen?" Xuan Mo Dao was dumbfounded. He held the fire talisman in his hand and didn't know whether he should throw it away.
An idea flashed through my mind, if I counterattack with all my strength at this time, I might be able to win.
"Second uncle, hurry up, take advantage of this opportunity and break out of the encirclement quickly. Why are you hesitating?" Xuan Hongyi urged anxiously from the side.
"Miss, the whole city is killing the enemy. If we retreat at this time, we will lose the hearts of the people, so why not!" Xuan Mo Dao explained sadly, trying to win over her.
"Xuan Mo Dao, do you want to disobey me?" Before Xuan Mo Dao could finish speaking, Crown Prince Xuan Mo Qing rushed over.
Without any explanation, he grabbed the fire talisman and lit it: "Give me the order to release the Great Mist Technique, and the whole army will break out in the direction of Qiaoguan!"
After finishing speaking, he looked at Xuan Mo Dao with a gloomy face: "Since my second uncle cares about the people, you can lead the remaining soldiers to defend the city!
Hong Yi, let’s go!”
"But!" Xuan Hongyi couldn't bear it, but Xuan Moqing pulled her onto the horse.
The education of aristocratic families never paid attention to the common people.
"Great Mist Technique!" A large amount of fog began to pour out from the City Lord's Mansion, quickly spreading to the west, leading to Qiaoguan.
Huaibei County spent a huge amount of resources to cultivate a team of warlocks, and the large-scale spells they released were not to kill the enemy, but to escape!
"General, the Marquis has escaped, what should we do?"
"My family is in the city and I won't leave!"
"Woo, general, can we hold on?"
Some of the remaining soldiers were angry, some looked gloomy, and some were crying bitterly. The morale they had just raised because of the people's attack was instantly gone.
Xuan Mo Dao took a deep breath and opened his eyes angrily: "Don't cry, there are two million people in the city, we have 50,000 city defenders and 20,000 personal guards, we may not lose!
To cheer up and defend the city is not for the sake of the Marquis of Huaibei, nor for the sake of making achievements.
We just fight against the enemy to survive and for our families in the city!"
"I will fight for my family!"
"We work hard, we have two million people, we will definitely be able to defend it!"
"Brothers, kill!"
Since there was no hope of leaving, the remaining soldiers were originally the elite of the Huaibei Army. Now with Xuan Mo Dao taking the lead, they all roared and charged forward!
"Listen up, the brothers who stayed here are great!"
"Woo woo woo, my mother and daughter-in-law are still in the city, I won't leave!"
"It's such a shame. I left my parents alone and protected these powerful people and escaped with their lives. I'm done with it!"
Taking advantage of the fog, the soldiers of the Huaibei Army who broke out to the west heard the roar behind them. The Guards were better, and most of the soldiers recruited locally from Guchuan County turned around and ran back.
"Asshole, you don't want your life, shoot an arrow!"
The general who led the troops was furious, but the fog was thick. As long as he left the team and got into the fog, he would disappear in two or three times.
"Don't worry about it, break out with all your strength!"
Xuan Moqing turned around and took a look, secretly regretting that he shouldn't have left Xuan Mo Qing behind in anger.
Not only did they lose a fifth-level master, but they also shook the morale of the army.
"Second brother, are we doing this right?" Xuan Hongyi bit her lip with a complicated expression: "I heard that Langya's military regulations state that generals who abandon the people will be killed without mercy!"
"Hmph!" Xuan Moqing snorted softly: "Li Wenhao is just a concubine of the Li family, and he is not welcomed in the Li family. He is no different from ordinary people, so he naturally speaks to the people.
This world is, after all, the world of powerful families, whether it is the Central Plains, the Giant Rakshasa Empire, or the Sand Clan.
Besides, we are not from the Langya Army, sister, don’t think too much, Li Wenhao won’t blame you when we meet!”
"Oh," Xuan Hongyi nodded silently and said no more.
"Asshole, the people in this city are crazy. What benefits did Marquis Huaibei give them? They don't even want their lives!" Outside the east city, Zhang Daoying, who was driven out of the city, jumped up and cursed angrily.
Although there is an atmosphere on the surface, he knows in his heart that this is his own fault, and he will eventually pay the price for what he did in Huaibei County.
But the price was too high. In a short period of time, 70,000 to 80,000 elite troops were forced to retreat into the city!
The black demon battle formation under his command was completely destroyed, not a single one was left!
"Your Majesty, now is not the time to be angry!" Advisor Xia Houling said anxiously from the side: "Huaibei Hou Xuankang released a large-scale fog technique and broke out from the west!"
"Humph, they can't run away. There has been an ambush in the west!" Baimu Qingfu stood aside and ordered with a livid face: "Send my military order and fire three more cannons to scatter these poor devils!"
"Boom boom boom!"
Three more one-meter-wide beams of light shot out, leaving traces of seven or eight meters wide on the ground, and rushed into the city.
Among the densely packed people, a large amount of blood burst out, and three long straight lines were cleared.
However, there were too many people, and it was like firing cannons into the sea. Almost instantly, the three long lines disappeared.
In this situation, let alone three shots, even if you hit all the rest, it will be of no use.
