Open, or not open!
It was like two directions on a single-plank bridge.
In front of him was a land of death. There was only one person who called himself a companion calling out to him.
Behind them was a group of bandits, each holding a weapon and sharpening their blades.
Li Su only felt that he was in a bottomless abyss, neither forward nor backward. He was at constant risk of falling if he stayed where he was.
Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, but Zhao Cen, who was beside him, couldn't help it.
He saw that the cavalrymen were already within a hundred paces of him. They were all wearing the uniform of the Dong Army and looked like frightened birds. He couldn't bear to see them in such a sorry state and hurriedly shouted to Li Su,"
"General, open the door!"
"The people below the city are all our brothers and comrades!”
This voice completely awakened Li Su.
Seeing that the cavalry was approaching, he simply shouted,"
"Who is it under the city? Report your name!"
As soon as he said this, the cavalry below the city suddenly stopped. Following that, a general who looked like a general walked out with several attendants. He hurriedly shouted,
"Is General Li Su on the city wall?"
"I am General Ping Mao, a tooth general under General Hua Xiong. We are trapped in an enemy ambush and General Hua Xiong is in danger. Please open the door quickly and let us in!”
"Tooth General Ping Mao?"
Li Su's eyes narrowed as he heard this, as if he was trying to recall if there was such a person under Hua Xiong's command. However, when Zhao Cen heard this, he said happily,"
"General, I know this Ping Mao. His voice and appearance are similar to the person in Guan Xia!”
"Oh?"
Li Su frowned when he heard this. He looked at Guan Xia and said in a deep voice,"
"You said that General Hwa Xiong is in danger. Where is he?”
When the guard heard this, he hurriedly called for someone to carry out a tall general. At this moment, he was being supported by someone and looked weak.
As the general appeared, Ping Mao shouted,"
"General, quickly open the door. The enemy is really coming!”
"If we don't open the door, we'll all die!”
As if they were cooperating, the sounds of battle from the pursuers grew louder, and they were already within 300 steps of the pass.
Li Su looked at Hua Xiong's figure and gritted his teeth. He turned around and shouted angrily at Qu Chang,"
"Didn't you say that General Hwa Xiong is dead? Then who is this person below the city?”
"Did you see General Hwa Xiong die?”
When Qu Chang heard about the enemy, he was already scared out of his wits. Seeing Li Su's fierceness, he was even more frightened and could only say submissively,"
"Mo…I didn't see it with my own eyes…"
The reason he was able to escape was because he was in the periphery.
As for the personal guards who were standing beside Hwa Xiong, they had already been surrounded. How could they possibly escape?
He naturally didn't know if Hwa Xiong's death was real or fake.
Seeing Hwa Xiong appear at the gate, he didn't dare to take responsibility and could only say,"
“... Perhaps this subordinate heard wrongly!”
"Trash!"
Seeing Qu Zhang's evasive expression, Li Su shouted angrily again and looked out of the pass.
If Qu Chang was a little more determined, he might have taken the gamble.
But now, he did not dare to take the risk!
If it was really Hua Xiong who was locked up and he was not allowed to enter, he would die if he reported this matter to Dong Zhuo!
Seeing that the enemy troops had arrived, he could only grit his teeth and shout in a low voice,
"Open the door!"
When Zhao Cen heard this, he felt as if he had been pardoned.
He couldn't afford to offend Li Su, let alone Hwa Xiong.
If he delayed for a moment and angered Hwa Xiong, he might just cut him down with a single slash!
At this moment, after receiving Li Su's permission, he hurriedly ordered the door to open.
Following the general's order, the huge gate of Mushui Pass opened with a creak.
Seeing that the door was wide open, the general below the city hurriedly cupped his hands and said to Li Su,"
"Thank you, General!"
"I will definitely repay you in the future!"
After saying that, he turned around and shouted,
"Quick, quick, follow me into the city!"
He led thousands of cavalrymen into the pass.
At this moment, Sun Jian, who was leading the army, had already arrived. Seeing this, he was overjoyed and said,
"Kill, follow me to destroy the enemy!"
Li Su saw that the enemy did not retreat and actually wanted to attack, so he hurriedly shouted,"
"Quick, quick, quick! Shoot arrows and close the door!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
When the guards heard this, they repeatedly agreed and raised their bows to shoot down the city wall.
For a moment, arrows rained down.
However, at this moment, a loud shout suddenly sounded from below the pass.
"Kill, follow me to seize the pass and welcome the general!”
With a loud shout, Hwa Xiong, who was on the verge of death, suddenly became spirited. He took out a pair of large iron halberds from under his horse and charged at the soldiers guarding the gate.
At the same time, Zu Mao and Han Dang stopped hiding. One of them wielded two sabers while the other wielded a long saber. They transformed into the Grim Reaper and charged toward the Western Liang Army.
The thousands of cavalrymen who had entered the city heard the order and began to wave their sabers and kill everywhere.
The Western Liang soldiers were caught off guard and were naturally terrified when they saw their comrades brandishing their sabers at them.
For a moment, the cries of battle had already resounded throughout the entire pass.
When Guan Shang, Li Su, and Zhao Cen heard this, their faces instantly turned pale, and their hearts sank to the bottom.
Was it really the enemy?
He had fallen into a trap!
This was simply impossible to guard against!
While the two generals were still in a daze, Sun Jian, who was far away, was already laughing non-stop.
Everything was just as Baili Ming had predicted. The enemy had opened the door!
Once the enemy opened the gate, this plan would have succeeded.
Whether or not he could win the next round was within his scope of effort!
Sun Jian pulled out the ancient ingot knife and raised it into the air. He shouted loudly,
"All troops, listen up! Attack the pass!"
As soon as this voice sounded, the three armies moved together. The assault team that had been hidden in the army rushed out with a ladder.
The 15,000-strong army was densely packed together, surging towards the city like a tidal wave.
At this moment, the defenders inside the pass were suddenly attacked, and it was already a mess.
Although there were many soldiers and horses, it was difficult to organize an effective resistance.
Seeing this, Zhao Cen wanted to cry but had no tears. He quickly said to Li Su,"
"General, what should we do?"
When Li Su saw this, he closed his eyes and said in a disappointed tone,"
"Retreat!"
"We can't hold on anymore!"
They had fallen into their trap twice in one night, and their morale had already fallen.
In addition, Sun Jian's army was desperate and morale was high. How could they resist the decline of this army and the rise of the other?
As he said this, he hurried down the city.
Since he had already decided to retreat, he might as well bring more things.
I hope I can atone for my sins!
However, when he walked down the city, he did not realize that after Zhao Cen heard his words, he did not follow him. Instead, his eyes had a strange light as he walked in another direction.
After the commander decided to retreat, there was no suspense in this battle.
An hour later, Li Su led the thousands of remaining soldiers towards Luoyang.
Sun Jian, on the other hand, gradually gained control of Mushui Pass under the slaughter of many fierce generals.
Two hours later, the battle ended.
After this battle, Sun Jian's path to Luoyang was completely opened.
At the same time, his original life journey had also taken a different path with the changes tonight.
