Unfortunately, there were still beacons on the lookout towers, so Gravel and the rest could only move faster. Gravel decided to split his troops into two groups. Beffman and the rest would be responsible for dealing with the city guards, while Gravel and the rest would go to the city wall at the front of the harbor, open the gate and destroy the two towers that were connected to the iron chains.
According to the agreement, Horf should be left behind to guard the ships at the campsite, while he should be waiting outside with the rest of his men. Gravel and the rest would give Horf a signal after they succeeded.
At night, the airships would not take off, so their detection range was limited.
At that time, as long as Horf and the rest broke through the blockade of the ships, they would be able to meet up with Gravel and the rest. At that time, the whole city would be easily taken down.
Beffman led the Northland army and quickly rushed into the city. Although the beacons were already lit, because some of the soldiers were lazy, they did not sound the alarm. Besides, these things had not been touched for many years, so people had forgotten about their existence.
Although it was already evening, most of the people in the city were not sleeping. They were either shopping on the streets, drinking in the bars, or doing what they liked at home.
Several groups of patrolling city guards were walking back and forth on the main streets of the city, they had to ensure the safety of the people.
Beffman led these fully armed Northland warriors to the edge of the city, so the people in the city did not know that the enemy had already attacked the city. This place was also considered a bustling night market, so there were many pedestrians even at night.
The streets were bustling with people, so no one noticed these Northland warriors with black crossed axes painted on their shields.
Occasionally, a few drunkards would pass by them, thinking that they were strange people wearing strange clothes. With just one swing of the axe, the man's head was separated from his body, and it rolled to the feet of a little girl like a ball.
The little girl kicked it, and she asked her mother what it was. Her mother took a look, and was instantly scared out of her wits. She wanted to shout, but it was as if her body was not under her control, and she could not shout.
Taking the lead, Beffman shot an arrow towards a man who looked like a military officer in a group of city guards not far away.
At this time, Beffman's subordinates were like ferocious tigers, rushing towards the unarmed people. These people who had been at peace for too long were simply too numerous. Even if they just stood there and let Beffman and the others kill them, it would take them half a day.
The city guards were also in an uproar as they rushed towards the invaders.
Of course, the following battle was not a battle at all. It was simply a lion eating a lamb.
After so many days of difficulties and dangers, these people could finally let go of the slaughter.
People were in a panic. They had never thought that disaster would befall them like this. Cries and screams rose and fell one after another. For a moment, more people were trampled to death than the Northland people.
The Imperial City Defense Army, which had never been baptized by war, was slaughtered by these battle-hardened Northland warriors as if they were vegetables.
When Beffman and the others saw the food and drinks on the stalls, they directly took them and ate them. At the same time, they also killed a few civilians for fun.
Beffman could speak Derman. He used Derman to shout to the civilians that if they dared to escape, they would be killed. If they squatted on the ground with their hands on their heads, they would be spared.
It was simply a disaster for a people who valued martial arts to come to this prosperous and prosperous place.
Beffman and the others ate and drank to their heart's content. These few days were really too hard. Too many people did not live to see this scene.
Other than those who surrendered, the rest of the city guards were just a pile of corpses.
Beffman and the others could not stay here for too long. They had to continue to enter the city because Gravel's side was already fighting with the guards on the city wall.
Beffman wanted to cut off the city guards who were going to support them. He ordered a few people to stay here to guard the prisoners of war and the civilians.
Many of the people at home had their doors tightly shut. They did not know who these people were. Could they be the Norsemen from the north? Impossible, this place was far away from the North.
Beffman and the others continued to kill the city guards in the city. The number of city guards was really large. Although their fighting strength was almost negligible, they still had a lot of cavalry.
The Northland warriors in charge of guarding those people were Wilson's men. They did not speak Derman at all. The two sides confronted each other just like that.
Although the people below surrendered on the surface, there were still some who did not know their place.
A few people were plotting to resist. A Northland man saw them and immediately walked over to kill the Derman with a sword.
The surrounding people immediately surrounded the Northland warrior. They were unarmed and wanted to bully him with numbers.
The other Northland people saw this scene and immediately laughed. Under the signal of the leader, a few streets were blocked.
The Derman immediately shouted something in Derman.
The women and children, some men and young people, who were squatting on the ground with their hands on their heads, tried to escape.
The Northland guards were at most 20 to 30 people. There were at least a thousand people who surrendered, and more than two thousand people had already died.
There was a mother with two children. Their father had been cut open, and they wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape.
As for the Northland warrior who was surrounded, he cut off the arm of one of the people with his sword and knocked out another tall Derman with his shield.
Then, he stabbed a bald man through the mouth with his sword. Another person tried to grab the shield and entangle him, but he was kicked to the ground.
The ordinary people who wanted to escape were killed by the Northland guards who were guarding the streets. In a moment, these people were splashed with the blood of the Derman, and they were like killing gods.
The Derman were scared out of their wits. They obediently surrendered and became prisoners again. But this time, they might not be treated so well.
The men of the Derman were pulled out of the crowd, and the Northland people killed them in front of the people. The remaining people were scared out of their wits. They did not dare to resist and could only pray to the Seven Gods that they were not the ones who died.
The mother, who wanted to escape, covered the eyes of her two children tightly. But in fact, the children saw this scene through the gaps between their mother's trembling fingers. A man's head was directly cut open by an axe, and his brain matter flowed all over the ground. The Northland people were killing these defenseless weaklings for fun.
Because of the language barrier, they killed even more unscrupulously. It could even be said that they were venting all the suffering they had suffered since the war. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
