After dealing with the few people who came out from Tang Jue, everyone knew that there was no need to negotiate. Moreover, in such a place, it is even more unsafe. Therefore, they did not stop and rushed to the wall outside the gate in one breath.
Sure enough, people in the house began to shoot out continuously. Several crossbow arrows were shot out from the second floor. Guo Kang also heard a gunshot. But maybe their skills were not good enough, or maybe everyone ran too fast, and in the end they failed to hit the target.
The residents who followed gradually caught up with them, but Guo Kang did not wait for them. He looked at the enemies at the door and found that more people with long soldiers were running out from inside, trying to block the passage at the door. There is also a fire door shooter, probably the one who fired just now, who is busy reloading.
Seeing this, Guo Kang didn't bother to announce what crimes these people had committed and why they wanted to attack. He raised a small flag and shouted: "Follow me, follow me!" Then he pressed down the visor of his helmet and rushed over.
He didn't have time to see the reaction of the people behind him, because with such a small distance, he was there in just a few breaths. He wanted to imitate Guo Ponu and stab the man with the gun first, but the other thugs swarmed up and stood in front of him, all trying to stab him with spears.
Guo Kang dodged for a few times, but then felt that this was not the solution. In desperation, he simply yelled and bumped into it.
He received several blows on his body. Although he was protected by armor, he was not afraid of being pierced, but it still hurt.
However, over the years, he has been pulled by his adoptive father to practice Kung Fu every day. It's hard to say how good his martial arts is, but at least he has developed some strength. After all, this spear was not the iron fork or ruler used by policemen. It could not withstand him. The armor plate slid away and stabbed a few times before he was knocked in.
The two leading spear-wielding thugs were pushed back by him. The distance between the few people was too close. Guo Kang immediately raised his sword and stabbed them from top to bottom. However, the place was too crowded, and the sword had only been lowered halfway when a scream was heard. It turned out that it had stabbed someone else.
Guo Kang couldn't care less about which unlucky guy got hit, because the man in front had already dropped his spear and pulled out his dagger. He immediately raised his hand and drew the sword back.
At this time, the panicked Huomen gunner was holding the matchlock and pointing it into the gun. It's just that he was cleaning the barrel of the gun just now, and now he doesn't even have gunpowder loaded, so what can it ignite?
After trying a few times, he may have discovered the problem, and immediately picked up the gunpowder pouch on his body and prepared to fill it first. As a result, in panic, he forgot to take out the match rope that was still inserted inside, and just dumped a bag of gunpowder down, trying to pack it as soon as possible.
Guo Kang was startled when he heard a bang in front of him. He thought they had brought out some large firearm. But there were screams and screams from behind the enemy, and some people dropped their weapons and ran away.
Before he could react, the guards had already rushed over and hacked to death the spearmen in front who had lost their spears. The remaining people immediately dispersed.
"Do you want to die?" Guo Ponu ran over and yelled at Guo Kang.
Guo Kang didn't feel timid this time, but instead felt a surge of blood. He turned around and shouted: "Go back if you die!" Then he jumped into the thick smoke caused by the explosion.
Behind the gate is a long porch that surrounds the garden in the atrium. There were already many thugs gathered here, and Guo Kang rushed to the nearest person without saying a word.
The man also thrust his sword at him, but Guo Kang did not dodge at all. He raised his hand to block it with his arm armor, and stabbed his leg with the sword. However, the thug nimbly dodged sideways. Guo Kang struck again with his sword, but it was blocked by him and failed to hit. He twisted the sword again and turned to sweep, but the thug was wearing armor and could not cut open.
This man seems to have practiced swordsmanship and is not that easy to deal with. However, Guo Kang's eyes were red at this time, and he only felt angry and embarrassed. He was no longer in the mood to think about swordsmanship. He used the sword as a spear and threw it away. When the man got out of the way, he rushed forward. He grabbed his sword-holding arm with his left hand, strangled him by the neck with his right hand, and pushed him against the wall. .
The thug reached out to grab the dagger at his waist, but Guo Kang clamped his sword-holding arm, roared and twisted back, using his waist to exert force, and with a "click", he actually broke the arm alive. The thug instantly let out a heart-rending scream and let go of his other hand.
"I told you to hide!"
Guo Kang stretched out his hand again, held down his head, and slammed him against the wall with all his strength. The helmet collided with the wall, making a muffled sound.
"I told you to hide!" Guo Kang roared angrily while slamming his head against the wall: "You are raised by a servant! Hide! Why don't you hide?"
After concentrating all his strength and giving him a few hard blows, the thug went limp. He didn't know whether he was fainted or dead.
At this moment, the three thugs next to him were holding short spears, looked at each other, and rushed forward in unison. Guo Kang used his hands to throw the man half a circle and threw him over. One of the spear-wielding thugs subconsciously raised his weapon to block, causing him to roll aside.
Only then did Guo Kang realize that he had no weapon, so he simply picked up the floor-standing candle holder next to him and smashed it into the enemy's head and face. One of them was hit directly on the side of the head and immediately fell to the ground. Another man was also hit by the gun barrel and lost his grip.
The third person successfully stabbed him in the chest, but it still didn't break the armor at all and just made him take a step back. It didn't matter now, the pain in his body made Guo Kang even more angry, and he stabbed back at him regardless, pushing him down.
The man hurriedly tried to get up, and the people next to him also wanted to help, but Guo Kang had already jumped up with a strange cry, and beat him down with all his strength. The thug stretched out his hand to stop it, and his arm collided with the iron rod, making a heartbreaking cracking sound, and then it bent downwards on the spot. After breaking his arm, the iron rod continued to gain momentum and hit his chest, causing him to fall back to the ground without even being able to scream.
Guo Kang was still dissatisfied, so he held the stick with both hands, raised it high, used all his strength, and smashed it straight into the chest again. This time, the thug couldn't escape and ate them all. I don't know how many ribs were broken at once, and the entire chest was dented. He was completely breathless and looked dead.
The last thug was obviously frightened by him. He didn't even dare to pick up the weapon, so he turned around and ran away. Just as Guo Kang was chasing him, an iron rod flew towards him again and plunged straight into the back of his head. The thug fell straight to the ground.
Guo Ponu walked over quickly, raised his hand, and hit Guo Kang's helmet with his fist, knocking his head down.
"Why are you so crazy!" She said angrily: "Are you capable of beating me like this? If you don't know how to beat me, just follow me behind."
Guo Kang didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just stood there.
Guo Ponu seemed to want to continue scolding him, but another group of people rushed out from the corner of the corridor. She let out a long breath with obvious displeasure, stretched out her hand and pulled out another sword.
The thugs swarmed forward, and Guo Ponu stepped forward quickly, swinging two long swords at the same time, creating a flash of steel. The leader was stabbed in the face as soon as they met; the person next to him took the opportunity to rush up, but his hand was cut off with her sword, and she stabbed him in the armpit with another sword, causing him to fall to the ground.
She turned around and used two swords in a row, knocking down a thug who came around to the ground. Then he immediately jumped back, widened the distance, and dodged the enemy's spear points. Then he turned around and pounced on him. He met each other and stabbed another enemy down.
As the people in front were killed one after another, the situation of the thugs following behind became even worse. They didn't even have armor. Guo Ponu rushed over and waved his two swords alternately, creating a bloody storm in the crowd. He almost killed someone every time he swung his sword. The surviving enemies were greatly frightened and immediately dispersed, running all over the yard.
At this time, shouts of death also sounded from the second floor of the main building behind. Guo Kang raised his head and saw several knights rushing out of the room, killing everyone they saw. The minions were so frightened that they fled in all directions.
A strong man in bright armor ran out from across the porch, yelling to stop them, and faced them with a sword. The knight captain met him. The two slashed and stabbed each other several times, but unable to break the defense, they twisted their swords and began to fight hand to hand.
The strong man was not weak in strength, but the knight captain was obviously more skilled. Taking advantage of the flaw exposed during the wrestling, he smashed the hilt of the sword and hit the opponent's head. While he was in a daze, the knight captain suddenly exerted force and threw him from the second floor.
The knights went to face the new enemy one after another, but the strong man seemed to have survived the fall. After a moment, he slowly stood up again, still trying to get up.
Guo Kang was thinking about whether to catch someone alive when he suddenly saw the lame young man walking out carrying a big vat. Seeing that the strong man was still moving on the ground, he threw the vat down without hesitation. With a bang, he was thrown to the ground again, and he didn't know if he was still alive.
In other places, thugs were fleeing in all directions.
No matter how many actual casualties there were in that moment, at least it did scare a lot of people. Most of the minions obviously didn't have the will to fight for this. When they found out that the people coming were too cruel, they started trying to escape. Without Guo Kang's orders, everyone had been divided into small teams and began to search various rooms to deal with those who were still resisting.
Although the number of remaining enemies is still large, they have lost their courage and are looking for ways to escape. Some people ran to the back door, while others climbed over from the second floor and tried to jump to the street.
Of course, this is not a good choice.
Now, there was a commotion outside. The residents who had been hesitant before had already gathered around and attacked and killed the gang members here.
They were more ruthless than Guo Kang. When Guo Kang and others encountered those who surrendered, they would rush them into the courtyard and gather them for interrogation; while the people outside would beat anyone to death if they caught them, without even listening to their excuses.
Father Mikhail had no choice but to stick his head out and shout to everyone, asking them to calm down and save some lives, and not to kill everyone who could tell important information.
After observing the surrounding situation, Guo Kang decided to continue rushing forward. But it was better not to take a breath just now, but this pause made him a little tired.
When I went to pick up the candle holder, I felt that it was heavy and thick. I even felt a little sore in my arm when I waved it. I didn’t know what happened just now. He had no choice but to drop the already bent candlestick, search around, and pick up his sword.
Guo Ponu didn't know what she wanted to say just now, but now she was also chasing the enemy, and she didn't know where she went. Guo Kang followed the two priests and continued to rush forward.
They went up to the second floor - people were already passing by in the stairwell, there were only a few corpses scattered around, and a half-dead man who was breathing intermittently, his chest rising and falling.
The priests took a look and found that his mail had been pierced directly, and there was a terrible wound on his right chest. He probably had injured his lungs and was hopeless. The two of them paused for a while, recited scriptures, and then sent him to see the Father with an axe, which was a finale for his former companions.
The corridor on the second floor has obviously been "cleaned", but there is still movement in the house. They rushed into the first room and found several minions lying near the door. There were several tall shelves against the wall in the room. Guo Kang took a look and found that they were filled with various wine barrels.
He walked over and took a look, and saw that these barrels had the logo of Venice and Marseille, and they seemed to be imported goods. They filled the entire shelf, and according to custom, these wines should be stored in the basement. These things in the house should be just part of the preparations for the banquet.
"Oh my god. There's not that much wine to drink." Guo Kang couldn't help but shook his head.
In the corner of the room, there was a girl dressed as a maid. She was looking out. When she saw the three of them barging in, she immediately retracted into the corner and looked at them in panic. One of the priests grabbed the cross and flashed it to her, telling her to stay here and not move. But Guo Kang thought about it and stopped him.
The teammates who attacked here before were only focused on fighting, and it was a normal tactical choice to ignore her for the time being and leave it to the people who followed. But everyone here is now a suspect, and everyone may become a witness. Who knows if this seemingly harmless girl has participated in the case or even been an important figure in it?
These priests from the Ross countryside may be relatively simple, but Guo Kang will not lose his vigilance just because the other party looks like a weak woman.
The moment he saw her, he had already considered various possibilities: she might be the mistress or daughter of an important gang member, dressed like this and preparing to escape; she might be a matchmaking maid who actually holds many secrets; He might even be a man disguised as a woman - unlike the priests, he had often heard of women dressing up and escaping. Without checking it carefully, who knows.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, we cannot let her run away. Even if she was just an innocent witness, being scared away would be a loss.
"You come with us." He lifted his helmet and ordered.
The maid still didn't respond, either because she was scared or because she didn't want to move. Guo Kang repeated again: "Get up and come with us. It's not safe here. We will take you to gather."
"We are sent by the church to track down gang crimes and will not harm innocent people." Another priest also explained helpfully: "Come on."
The maid stood up reluctantly. But when the two priests walked out of the door, she was still hesitant.
"Hurry up." Guo Kang held the sword and urged.
The maid looked at the priests who turned around at the door, then nodded and followed. Guo Kang took two steps behind, carefully looked at the surrounding layout, stabbed the wall panels and shelves a few times, then followed behind, walked out of the room, and closed the door.
There was only a moment of delay here, but the battle in the mansion was nearing its end. Two knights were walking out of the main building with a group of minions. They all raised their hands and squatted down beside the flower bed. On the second floor, there were only sporadic killing shouts and fights.
Guo Kang and others moved forward along the corridor and found that the rooms in front of them had also been cleaned. They stopped staying and rushed to where there was still sound.
At this time, Guo Ponu suddenly appeared at the corner at the end of the corridor. Seeing someone else coming, she hurriedly waved and said: "Come here! They are all here!"
Guo Kang and others trotted over and found a small cubicle over there with a bunch of people hiding in it. Outside are some maids dressed similarly to the person just now, who are going out. But at the end is a strong man with a sinister face, and several women wearing heavy makeup.
"They said this is the leader of the gang, Sergey." Guo Ponu pointed his sword at the strong man and said.
"You did this all the way?" Guo Kang was surprised by another thing.
"That's right. I thought about it, and since I can't stop you anyway, it's better to kill all these enemies first. Lest you get hit in the head and get into trouble again." Guo Ponu shook his head and said.
"..." Guo Kang was speechless for a moment.
The movement here attracted more people, and the military judge also ran towards this direction with a few followers. Seeing that the battle here was over, he ordered his entourage to take out pen and paper and prepare to record it.
"Where is Alexander?" he asked directly.
"Sir, sir, I don't know anything!" Sergey, however, completely lost the arrogance of a gang leader. He shrank his head and refused to come out. He continued to explain: "I just come to the elder's place for a meal on a routine basis! What he committed has nothing to do with me!"
"Don't talk so much." Guo Kang shouted: "Whatever I ask you, just say it! Where is Alexander?"
"He's not here this afternoon because he has something to do and has to meet with other people for a meeting." Sergey hurriedly explained: "Our brothers here were left here by him, saying that he wanted everyone to rest and relax."
"He must have some conspiracy!" He showed an exaggerated expression of surprise and turned to the military judge: "Sir, I am wronged! Alexander must have planned something, so he was deliberately not present at this time, trying to pass the blame on me! "
The military judge gave him a cold look and said nothing.
Guo Kang frowned.
"Don't worry, I also know that he is a big bad guy and he can't run away." He said to Sergey: "Now, you come with us."
"Where to go?" Sergey asked hurriedly.
"Just over there." Guo Kang pointed to the large balcony on the second floor facing the garden and said.
Sergey seemed to realize something and wanted to shrink back inside. But the soldiers didn't bother to talk nonsense to him. They grabbed his legs and dragged him out.
Guo Kang looked at the gang leader. His body seemed strong, but his face looked a little haggard. He might have indulged too much during this period and was drained by alcohol and sex.
He had strange braids on his head and large tattoos on his body. He was not even wearing underwear or pants, and was only wearing a Central Plains-style silk gown. Those clothes were supposed to be the attire of a scholar, but when he wore it like this, not only did it not have any elegant artistic conception, but it actually looked quite funny.
"Where is his boss?" the military judge asked Guo Kang after looking at the paperwork.
"I'll call him back." Guo Kang replied.
He asked others to take a good look at this place, and together with Guo Ponu, continued walking towards the back door. There were no signs of fighting in the corridor here, but there were also no people around. All the minions and servants had fled, and only the sound of collision could be heard from a room next to them.
The two siblings ran over and found that this should be the dining room in the hall. There was a man inside holding a large sack and stuffing a lot of tableware into it. When he saw someone coming, he was startled. He didn't care about the unfinished parts on the table, and grabbed the sack and wanted to run away.
However, he obviously underestimated the weight of the sack. Instead of pulling it, he was carried away and fell to the ground.
"What are you doing!" Guo Kang shouted sharply.
"Ah, ah..." The man was speechless.
Guo Kang didn't have time to talk nonsense with him, so he stepped forward and kicked him down. Seeing that he had no weapon in his hand, he dragged him out of the door and asked others to take him away.
There will be no one in the next place. The two of them quickly came to the back of the house and looked down. At the intersection below, they saw many corpses lying strewn about. Many of them were not very complete. Broken arms and limbs were scattered all over the ground, covering the ground. stained red.
More people were gathering on the roadside, holding their heads and sitting on the ground, looking very frightened. Captain Lucas and others probably blocked a lot of people.
Guo Kang stuck his head out and waved the flag in that direction.
"It's over, it's over!" he shouted, "Bring everyone in."
The people below immediately asked the prisoners to stand up and drove them inside. Guo Kang called Captain Lucas again and told him that the leader had been caught and asked him to come up to help with the interrogation. The prisoners were a little commotion at first, but they became quiet again when they heard that the boss had also been arrested.
When he returned, others had already escorted Sergey to the balcony. Under the balcony, many residents had already poured in. There were many people outside who couldn't see what was going on inside, so they simply climbed to the roof of the second floor and formed a large circle.
Guo Kang's men escorted the prisoners to the courtyard. Some residents clashed with the prisoners and tried to beat them. Father Mikhail and others had to stop them. After comforting them for a while, they calmed down.
It's cold now, but Father Mikhail is sweating from work. Afterwards, he hurried upstairs to meet Guo Kang. Guo Kang asked him to rest first, saying that he was not in a hurry to carry out the ceremony now. He was going to interrogate Sergei publicly and let him tell everything.
The priests were quite supportive of this. Sergey has harmed too many people, and if he is not allowed to tell the truth publicly, he will not be able to give an explanation to the victims.
Moreover, even for his own benefit, a public interrogation must be conducted to force him to repent. Otherwise, it would be impossible for his soul to be saved, and he would not be able to pray before execution.
No one brought any magic weapon, so Father Mikhail took two gun poles that had been discarded by the gangsters, cut the short one into two sections, tied a temporary cross out, and asked the aide to hold it. A sign.
The military judge suggested that Guo Kang take out the flag of the brigade. He explained that this interrogation was related to a violation of military law, so it also required the participation of the prisoner's unit, which is why he called up Captain Lucas, the acting commander. At this time it is best to display a flag to indicate that this is a formal trial for the soldiers of the unit.
But Guo Kang's team has only been established for a short time and has no flags or logos. He thought about it and decided to imitate the priests and make a temporary one.
He found a tablecloth from the back hall, tied it to a wooden pole, and asked the clerk for a pen. As for what pattern to use, he was momentarily stuck in the difficulty of choosing and lowered his head to think.
At this time, he saw beside him the amulet that Guo Ponu had given him before.
Since you can't design it yourself, it's better to just copy someone else's. Guo Kang no longer hesitated and directly drew the pattern of the Eye of Horus. Anyway, no one in each legion or war group has used it yet, so it counts as a mark.
After finishing a few strokes, he asked Captain Lucas to take the flag and plant it on the balcony. After that, he took out the kettle himself, drank some water, rested for a while, and then got up and walked over there.
