Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

But in Li Ji's hands, only one survival gate is an inevitable flaw, and the rest are all killing moves that can cause injury or death.

However, as Li Ji deployed the Bai Li soldiers at the escape gate, Lu Bu subconsciously avoided them and chose another place to enter, which had already doomed Lu Bu's outcome.

As the command flag waved, the Han army camp arranged with the "Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation" began to operate.

Only two hundred steps after Lu Bu led the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to charge into the Han army camp, he suddenly realized something was wrong. Looking back, he was shocked to find that a small part of the 30,000 cavalry that should have followed him had been divided and sent elsewhere.

"This fellow Li Zikun, is hiding a formation in his camp?!"

Lu Bu suddenly thought of this possibility, and his heart sank instantly.

Perhaps Lu Bu failed to learn the formation, but it does not mean that Lu Bu had never heard of it.

But before Lu Bu could think more, arrows rained down from all directions.

Lu Bu gritted his teeth, knowing that he was trapped in a formation, and everything he saw might be an illusion, or even lead him into a dead end filled with traps.

Therefore, Lu Bu looked up at Hulao Pass in the distance, intending to break it by force, and shouted.

"Follow me into the camp, follow me! Follow me!"

Immediately, Lu Bu rushed towards the direction of Hulao Pass. No matter what obstacles he encountered along the way, he did not retreat, but destroyed and flattened them by force.

However, with a deep pit that was two meters wide and four meters deep blocking his way, Lu Bu had to take a detour.

After this detour, before Lu Bu could correct the direction, Sun Ce, who had been gathering his strength for a long time, had been waiting in this passage for a long time.

"You are Lu Bu?!"

Sun Ce raised the Overlord Halberd in his hand and pointed it directly at Lu Bu, showing his unrestrained heroic spirit, his eyes burning with a raging fighting spirit.

"Nobody, if you don't want to die, get out of here!"

Lu Bu, who was already full of frustration and anger, did not stop for a moment. He rushed towards Sun Ce while drinking.

Seeing this, Sun Ce was not afraid at all. He rushed towards Lu Bu and shouted.

"Hahaha, the Prime Minister had expected that you would pass through here to break into the camp, so he asked Sun Bofu from Jiangdong to wait for you here."

The collision between Overlord Halberd and Fang Tian Huaji caused sparks to fly...

But compared with Sun Ce's high morale to fight, Lu Bu felt a sense of despair that was enveloping him like a spider web.

Li Ji even anticipated that he would pass through here?
The bravery displayed by Sun Ce also made Lu Bu feel troubled. He was another fierce general who was as brave as Guan and Zhang.

It's not difficult to lose, but it's hard to win quickly...

"Get out of here!"

Lu Bu seemed to have hit rock bottom and bounced back, showing all the bravery he could rely on, even resorting to the tactic of risking his life at the cost of injury.

In less than ten rounds, Sun Ce's face changed drastically and he felt the pressure coming like a tide.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei, who was originally holding the line in the back, also rushed forward with a grin, and the sound like thunder echoed over the battlefield.

"Don't be so violent, you slave of three surnames. Compete with your grandfather Zhang..."

"It's you again, the ring-eyed thief! Aaaaaah!!!"

However, when Lu Bu was trapped under the joint siege of Sun Ce and Zhang Fei, even with his unparalleled courage, it was difficult for him to win.

As Lu Bu's spearhead was firmly restrained, the aggressive Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry also fell into a state of stagnation, and was slowly worn down by the Han army who relied on the "Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation".

Li Ji, standing on the high platform, looked at the whole situation. He was not surprised at all. He directed the operation of the "Eight-Gate Golden Lock Formation" in an orderly manner, constantly dividing and killing the Bingzhou Wolf Riders. Perhaps, Lu Bu could forcibly break through many obstacles that constituted the formation, but the Bingzhou Wolf Riders did not have this ability.

Being trapped in it is like an insect falling into a spider's web.

This scene also made Gao Shun, who was at Hulao Pass, sweat break out on his forehead.

Perhaps it could be said that Gao Shun, who was standing on the city wall of Hulao Pass deep inside, had a clear view of the entire battle situation.

Lu Bu couldn't get through and had no way of breaking into the Han army camp that had eight secret gates.

However, Gao Shun was also not very familiar with the formation and could not find any flaws at all.

But looking down, Gao Shun clearly saw the nearly 30,000 cavalrymen following Lu Bu into the Han army camp.

Every time they advanced a certain distance, a group of cavalry would take the wrong path as if they were lost, and would be quickly devoured by the well-rested Han army.

Especially after Lu Bu was blocked by the Han general, the stagnant cavalry were stuck in the situation and fought on their own like headless flies, with casualties increasing dramatically.

At this moment, Gao Shun was struggling with his conscience.

Should he go out to support Lu Bu and try to attack the Han army camp from the front and back? Perhaps he could disrupt the formation set up by Li Ji and give Lu Bu a chance to break out.

Although Gao Shun looked down at the Han army camp near Hulao Pass and saw that everything was calm and peaceful, there were only a few Han troops patrolling and defending.

But Gao Shun knew very well that it was absolutely impossible.

Li Ji, who was unpredictable in employing troops, would never reveal such a big flaw. If he really led his troops out of the pass, there was no telling who would be counterattacked by Li Ji, who was well prepared, and break through the pass the next moment.

"Don't act rashly..."

After Gao Shun, who was usually calm, came to this conclusion, he turned and shouted at the guards behind him.

"Sound the horn! Sound the horn quickly to remind the king to retreat!"

The next moment, as the sound of a gong came from Hulao Pass, the battlefield became quiet, and Lu Bu, who had been fighting with Sun Ce and Zhang Fei for a while, came back to his senses.

At this time, Lu Bu realized that his cavalry had suffered heavy casualties and understood what Gao Shun meant.

withdraw!
Retreat quickly!!!

"I'm so angry!"

Lu Bu shouted unwillingly and helplessly, blocked the Zhangba Snake Spear, took the initiative to withdraw from the battle circle, and gave orders loudly.

"Withdraw! Withdraw!"

Perhaps it would be difficult for Lu Bu to break the formation, but if he retreated along the path he had opened up when he broke into the camp, he would not be unable to find the way.

However, this route of retreat is also extremely dangerous.

Lu Bu couldn't even understand why the Han army's arrows seemed endless. The men from Bingzhou who had followed him in battles for many years had no chance to show their bravery and just kept falling down.

When Lu Bu hurriedly retreated from the Han army camp, leaving behind a pile of corpses, the 30,000 cavalrymen who had come with such a mighty force now seemed scattered.

Chen Qun and Chen Gong, who stayed in Xingyang and were anxiously waiting for news, were almost stunned when they saw Lu Bu leading a defeated army to retreat with low morale against the setting sun.

Especially when Chen Gong was pressing his hands on the wall, estimating the number of soldiers and horses brought back by Lu Bu, what he felt was not only despair but also a bone-chilling coldness.

A total of 35,000 infantry and cavalry marched away in a mighty force, and the number of infantry and cavalry that retreated was probably just over 10,000. (End of this chapter)
