~7 min read 1,372 words

Yufuluo and Budugen were stunned for a moment.

Just now they wanted to use warhorses to extinguish the fire, but the horses feared the flames and would not move forward at all.

But people... seemed possible.

"Quick." Yufuluo pointed to the Han people gathering behind and said: "Drive all the Han people in the city over, let them rush over; whoever dares not to rush over, kill them."

Guo Tu's words were like the last straw for the Xiongnu and Xianbei.

After receiving the orders from Yufuluo and Budugen, those Xiongnu and Xianbei who were already in despair immediately held their curved blades and rushed toward the Han people behind them.

The city was now a sea of fire, with no way to retreat.

Only the vacuum zone near the residential area of the city wall could be temporarily safe.

Therefore, when the Xianbei soldiers and Xiongnu soldiers rushed up viciously with swords, the crowded Han people had nowhere to hide.

They were squeezed like livestock in front of the gate tunnel burning with raging flames.

A mother held a crying infant in her arms.

A husband hugged his wife with a terrified gaze.

An old man held a cane and walked with a limp.

Behind them were Xiongnu and Xianbei like devils holding swords and bows.

"Rush over, rush over and you still have a hope of living, otherwise... otherwise you will all die."

"Anyone who dares not to move forward will die."

Yufuluo's eyes flashed with fierce light, and the curved blade in his hand fell without hesitation.

The blade directly severed the neck of a Han youth in front of him.

Blood gushed, and the head rolled down.

The surrounding Han people were so frightened that they could only move closer to the gate tunnel burning with raging flames.

Seeing that the pace of the Han people was too slow, Yufuluo and Budugen immediately ordered the archers behind them to start shooting at the Han people.

After a round of arrow rain, a large number of people were hit and fell to the ground.

In the crowd, a burly middle-aged man protected his wife in his arms tightly, gritting his teeth as he looked at the Xiongnu and Xianbei behind.

"Yin'er, protect yourself well. If you are lucky enough to still be alive, find a good man to marry. If you can't survive, remember, don't be a human in the next life."

The wife raised her head, looked at her husband, and nodded.

The next second, the couple held hands and rushed into the sea of fire together.

A mother holding an infant gave the child to the person beside her and stepped into the sea of fire first, hoping to use her flesh and blood to extinguish the flames and leave the last glimmer of hope for the child.

An older brother instructed his younger brother and sister to take care of themselves in the future, then stepped into the sea of fire without hesitation.

An elderly man who had lost his wife stepped into the flames with a limp, in order to leave the last trace of blood for the Han people.

Countless Han people rushed into the sea of fire one after another, not because of fear of the swords behind them.

But to leave the only hope of living to their closest relatives behind.

Seeing those who rushed into the gate tunnel being swallowed by the flames and then falling, it seemed that the flames in the gate tunnel were extinguished quite a bit.

Guo Tu's eyes flashed with a desire for life.

"Too few people, too few people, move all the living Han people in the city, as well as the corpses, over here." Guo Tu said loudly.

Yufuluo and Budugen obviously realized this too.

So they urgently ordered their men to bring all the people gathered near the other city gates here, and also let the Xiongnu soldiers and Xianbei soldiers from other gates concentrate at this location.

There was a distance between the city wall and the buildings in the city.

This was a passage left for the convenience of mobilizing the defending troops.

As time passed, more and more Han people were concentrated toward the north gate of Mayi.

And as more and more Han people were thrown into the sea of fire, the fire in the gate tunnel was gradually suppressed.

Just when Yufuluo, Budugen, and Guo Tu thought they could escape by this method.

A loud tiger roar sounded outside the city.

The tiger roar was high-pitched, instantly suppressing the noisy crying sounds around.

Following closely behind, a huge black shadow leaped out from the sea of fire.

It was a huge black tiger.

Its four hooves leaped, soaring into the air above the flames of the gate tunnel.

On the tiger's back sat a knight in black armor.

When seeing this figure, Yufuluo, who was behind the Han people, seemed to have been cast with a freezing spell, frozen in place.

"Duan Yu!"

"It's Duan Yu!"

Guo Tu exclaimed.

The black tiger landed and suddenly raised its huge tiger head to roar at the sky.

Behind Duan Yu and Xiao Hei, giant wolves with huge bodies, over two meters long, and covered in a layer of gray-white fur, also rushed over.

On each giant wolf was a cavalryman.

And the cavalrymen were holding huge, soaked quilts in their hands.

Covering the ground as they passed, they instantly suppressed the fire.

After nearly two hundred giant wolves rushed into the city, a large amount of heat rose in the gate tunnel, but the open flames had been extinguished.

"Move aside!"

Duan Yu roared and rushed forward holding the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd.

The surrounding Han people consciously made a path for Duan Yu.

Xiao Hei instantly raised its speed to the limit.

"Swift Wolf Cavalry... bring all the Han people out of the city."

In front were dense, endless Xiongnu and Xianbei soldiers.

Behind were the surviving Han people.

After the two hundred Swift Wolf Cavalry followed Duan Yu and rushed forward, they pulled up a formation between the Han people and the Xiongnu and Xianbei soldiers.

The burning city illuminated Mayi like daylight.

The thick black smoke was like black clouds on a cliff.

Duan Yu, holding the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd and riding the black tiger, rushed into the crowd of Xianbei and Xiongnu soldiers.

After the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd swept around in a circle, there were severed limbs and arms everywhere.

There was no need for any moves; as long as the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd was thrust out, there were bound to be Xiongnu and Xianbei soldiers around.

Duan Yu's swinging arm did not stop for a moment, just like the propeller of a helicopter, and the blood waves stirred up were like a rainstorm.

Seeing this scene, Yufuluo, Budugen, and Guo Tu in the crowd were completely stunned.

Yufuluo and Budugen had both seen Duan Yu's bravery.

But that was four years ago.

The current Duan Yu, compared to four years ago, simply didn't seem like a human.

And in Duan Yu's eyes, the Xiongnu and Xianbei soldiers at this time were not humans either.

But beasts.

When crossing the gate tunnel, Duan Yu saw with his own eyes the charred corpses in the gate tunnel.

Without thinking, Duan Yu knew who these corpses were.

These Xiongnu, these Xianbei not only slaughtered the Han people in the city but also used this cruel method to extinguish the fire.

"You... simply... unforgivable..."

Duan Yu gritted his teeth and roared: "Today, I sentence you... to death!"

Duan Yu raised the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd in his hand and then smashed it down fiercely in front of him.

"Blood Battle... Eight Directions!"

Hum!

The Qi around his body exploded instantly in 360 degrees, without any blind spots.

The invisible but indestructible Qi instantly cut everything around into two halves.

The surrounding Xiongnu and Xianbei soldiers who were crowded together only felt a chill on their bodies.

Subsequently, their upper bodies uncontrollably separated from their lower bodies and became two halves.

Even the burning flames in the distance were cut into two halves. ===== CHAPTER 1495 =====
