Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

Looking at Liu Bei's army, Lin Mu thought to himself, "Now that Liu Bei has borrowed my luck and is at the height of his power, their charge will surely put tremendous pressure on the garrison of Hulao Pass."

However, he also knew that Hulao Pass was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and given that Dong Zhuo would definitely have set up defensive measures, it would not be so easy to break through.

In his previous life, after Hua Xiong was killed, the Guandong Allied Forces took the opportunity to attack the city. Many famous generals joined forces, yet they still couldn't capture Hulao Pass, demonstrating its formidable defenses. At that time, a dragon appeared on the walls of Hulao Pass!
It is now speculated that the national guardian beast, the Heavenly Black Emperor Dragon, is secretly guarding Hulao Pass!

As time went by, the armies of various warlords gradually approached Hulao Pass.

The shield bearers, shields raised, slowly advanced, providing cover for the archers and infantry behind them. The archers, in turn, drew their bows and unleashed a hail of arrows upon the defenders on the city walls.

The defenders on the city wall were not to be outdone, and they fought back with bows and crossbows and stones. For a moment, shouts of battle, the clash of weapons, and the whistling of arrows were all mixed together, and the scene was extremely tragic.

Soon, the Kwantung Army faced its first major challenge in the siege – the moat!
The moat of Hulao Pass is not an ordinary small river, but a turbulent river that is dozens of feet wide.

If you travel by boat, you'll definitely be attacked by the city's defenders; a hail of rocks and logs will rain down, and the ship will almost certainly sink. You'll have to use special items!

Some of the fastest-rushing Heavenly Rank generals took out some items and threw them into the moat. Then, strange white energy bridges appeared, allowing the attacking soldiers to cross the river.

On the city wall, Li Su squinted as he observed everything.

With Hua Xiong dead, he is now the highest-ranking commander at Hulao Pass. Unlike Hua Xiong, he won't recklessly engage in a duel. His mission is to hold Hulao Pass, hold off and wear down the Guandong Allied Forces, and buy time.

"General Li, the enemy is about to cross the river!" Hua Xiong's adjutant said urgently to Li Su.

"Wait a little longer..." Li Su raised his hand to stop his advice and said calmly.

Soon, the entire moat was filled with a dense mass of Kwantung Army soldiers.

Attacks continued to rain down from the city walls, and soldiers of the Kwantung Allied Army fell one after another, turning the white energy bridge red with countless drops of blood.

Despite the relentless and frantic attacks from the defenders on the city walls, the allied forces were simply too numerous, and soon the area beneath the walls was teeming with soldiers.

Some soldiers began setting up ladders or other unusual climbing equipment in preparation for forcibly scaling the towering city walls.

"Thump thump thump!~~~" At this moment, a series of muffled sounds came, and under the escort of some giant shield soldiers, a series of huge siege battering rams that looked like ferocious prehistoric beasts appeared.

The Kwantung Army's siege was carried out with a tight and orderly pace, without the slightest sign of panic...

The Kwantung Army's attack on the city this time seemed to be neither a trial nor a temporary measure, but a real attempt to breach the city!
Li Su watched all this unfold from the city wall, his expression growing increasingly grave.

He also guessed that the warlords of Guandong had long been prepared for this siege!
"Damn it, those traitors from Guandong are too cunning, they didn't even let in a whisper!" Li Su cursed inwardly.

As for spies, not a single word came through.

Lin Mu, standing at the rear of the attacking force, was slightly startled upon seeing this scene ahead. It turned out that Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and others had secretly planned to make a big commotion during their first siege!

"Boom!!!!~~~~" A huge roar shook the sky, and the massive city gate, which resembled a heavenly gate, began to tremble.

The battering rams began to take effect, their heavy hammers pounding the city gates again and again.

Each impact caused the iron bars and wooden planks on the city gate to groan in pain, as if they were about to break at any moment.

In addition, with each impact, the residual energy waves emanating from the energy runes covering the huge, heavy bronze door were also terrifying, shooting out like sharp blades.

Those generals who manipulated the crash were directly pierced through their Yuan Power shield and died instantly.

It should be noted that the person who manipulated the crash was not an ordinary soldier, but a Yellow-rank or Xuan-rank martial general. Yet the surging energy aftershocks were able to threaten them, demonstrating the terrifying nature of the situation.

Soon, some high-level Xuan-rank and even Di-rank martial generals took their place.

Despite the commotion, the behemoth-like vehicle remained undamaged and stood as steady as a mountain.

As the offensive intensified, Li Su finally made a move.

"Raise the pillar!!!" Li Su shouted.

The next moment, the turbulent moat suddenly froze, and the originally swift river became extremely calm.

"Poof!~~~~" Soon, the sound of waves rang out, and strange stone pillars appeared on the calm river surface!
"Buzz!~~~" The stone pillars only appeared in the middle of the river, and after they emerged from the water, strange energy fluctuations rippled outwards.

"Crack! ~~~Bang! ~~" As the energy of the stone pillar surged, the blood-red energy bridge shattered instantly.

The soldiers who were on the bridge had no time to retreat or advance and plunged straight into the river. However, what greeted them was not the icy water, but a barrage of energy blades. These energy blades were stone pillars that burst forth, swiftly reaping the lives of the fallen soldiers from the Guandong region.

Before long, the entire river surface turned crimson.

The soldiers charging behind them had no time to stop, and tens of thousands of soldiers from the Kwantung Army were pushed into the river and perished.

The peculiar stone pillars once again made the moat a formidable natural barrier, separating the front and rear armies. Those soldiers still scaling the walls and breaching the gates had no reinforcements!
Seeing this, the defenders on the city wall launched an even more frenzied attack, pouring buckets of scalding oil down on the attacking soldiers and siege engines. Soldiers splashed with hot oil screamed in agony as their clothes instantly burst into flames, writhing on the ground in agony. The siege engines were also doused with hot oil; the wooden parts began to smoke, and in some places, small flames even ignited. Soon, the small flames grew into large, spreading fires.

The boulders and logs continued to rain down from the city walls, striking and hurling attacking soldiers as they fell screaming from the ladders and siege equipment. But the allied soldiers pressed on relentlessly, one falling and another immediately taking their place.

Lin Mu gazed at the horrific scene before him, his heart filled with mixed emotions. This siege was undoubtedly a bloody meat grinder, with countless vibrant lives perishing in the flames of war. Yuan Shao, Qiao Mao, and their ilk, driven by their own ambitions and interests, were willing to send so many soldiers to their deaths.

However, the movements of the defending army did not stop there.

"Kill!!" Li Su roared, and the next moment he led his soldiers to jump off the city wall using some equipment.

Of course, no divine general appeared at the position Li Su chose.

Li Su wanted to directly wipe out the Guandong soldiers below the city wall.

"Strange... Are they going to abandon the advantage of the city walls?" Lin Mu looked at Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, who had already crossed the river, and muttered to himself.

It seems that Dong Zhuojun is going to reveal his trump card in the very first battle.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei took the lead, breaking away from the main force to charge forward, all preparing to scale the city walls.

After being inspired by the technique of borrowing luck, Liu Bei's confidence reached its peak, and of course he was going to do something big!

However, Lin Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, quietly observing what would happen next. He didn't think Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei could cause any earth-shattering commotion.

Without needing any equipment, the three of them leaped from the foot of the city wall, weapons in hand, and soared into the sky.

The rocks, logs, and arrows posed no threat to the three of them.

"Boom!!~~~~" At this moment, in other areas, figures also shot into the sky.

"Those are... Cao Cao's men... It seems everyone is gearing up for something big!"

At this moment, the soldiers of the Great Wilderness Territory also rushed to the vicinity of the moat. The path ahead was blocked, and they could not advance at all.

"Whoosh!!!" The next moment, an energy arrow carrying a terrifying aura shot out and directly hit the stone pillar on the water.

Many soldiers blocking the riverbank had tried this tactic, but none of them were effective; even the Heavenly Arrows of Heavenly Rank Generals were ineffective.

"Boom!~~~" A violent burst of energy exploded, and the energy arrow shattered a stone pillar.

The energy aftershocks did not affect the other stone pillars nearby.

"A full-force arrow only destroyed one arrow?" Huang Zhong was slightly surprised.

He thought that the arrow he had just fired could shatter the stone pillars that were dozens of feet tall around him.

"Ying'er, you lead the troops, I'll go scale the city walls." Seeing more than a dozen figures soaring into the sky, Huang Zhong also decided to use his own strength to scale the city walls, then wreak havoc on the walls and relieve the pressure on the attacking soldiers.

"Father, be careful!" Huang Ying nodded emphatically.

After that, Huang Zhong and Yue Jin rushed out of the crowd, leaped across the long river, and headed towards the city wall.

There wasn't a single divine general on the walls of Hulao Pass. It was as if they knew that the divine generals of the Guandong Allied Army would directly ascend the city walls, and instead found an opening to leave the city.

This scene alarmed many spectators.

Li Su and the other generals defending the city were not fools or incompetent; they must have had their reasons for doing so.

Lin Mu frowned slightly as he watched Huang Zhongle ascend the city wall.

Under his watchful eye, the first divine general to ascend the city wall soon appeared.

It was none other than Guan Yu, whose opportunity had been stolen by Dian Wei!! (End of Chapter)
