If your palace guard block multiple attackers, you assing combat damage on the attackers the same way the controler of an attacking ceature blocked by multiple blockers assing damage on the blocking creatures. The reminder text of Deathtouch reads:"(Creatures dealt damage by this creature are destroyed. You can divide its combat damage among any of the creatures blocking or blocked by it.)
So you divide the damage od the guard as you choose among the blocked attacking creatures
The Palace Guard is able to block multiple targets, and is in this case a 2/5 (further pumping, with Oakenform, Giant Growth, ect will cause the same effect.)
You may then distribute 1 damage to 2 seperate blockers (if you're blocking 2 or more that is) and the two that were dealt damage by the Poisonous Palace Guard will die. unless they are regenerated. If you block 3+ creatures you may assign 1 damage to two different, but leave the third alive.
For extra fun, Cast Kindled Fury on the 2/5 Palace Guard, and then block 3 creatures, they will die as the first strike triggers. and no hit back.

A Place guard with Gorgon flail should be able to block 2 creatures and kill them both, right?
You'd need more power to deal damage to each dude however.
So you divide the damage od the guard as you choose among the blocked attacking creatures
