Chapter 360: Targeting Lu HaiKong
Chapter 360: Targeting Lu HaiKong
September 25, 2017
Finally, Lu Bu noticed the walls regenerating, but the situation before him was already dire.
The Mechanical Iron Tiger he had sent flying had lost several dozen defense points, yet it could still fight, and besides this beast, there was also Dian Wei, who had activated the Ghost and God Unparalleled technique.
With them present, it was impossible to make any significant moves for the time being.
At this moment, the Imperial Guard Legion had charged into the county troops, and Ding Li's cavalry, trained by Lu Bu himself, was trapped among the county soldiers and mountain bandits. They couldn't even retreat, and within Lu HaiKong's mountain camp, the Black Wind Legion and the three battalions had assembled.
Moreover, some of the recently recruited elite-level soldiers had also been deployed.
Lu Bu had no time to spare; if this continued, the soldiers who had entered the walls would be annihilated.
Realizing this, Lu Bu slowly turned around, gazing at the approaching Dian Wei. His eyes blazed with flames, and behind him, a massive aura materialized.
"This guy's using his ultimate!"
Having descended from the walls, Lu HaiKong, along with Cheng Yi and the Wolf Fang Guard, witnessed this scene, feeling as if Dian Wei had activated the Ghost and God Unparalleled technique.
At that moment, Lu Bu displayed a unique trait—a question mark appeared above his head.
War God Unparalleled: Active Trait, Effect???
Lu HaiKong had never seen this question mark effect before, but there was no doubt that this trait was incredibly powerful.
Lu Bu absorbed the massive aura of a war god, and in an instant, he seemed to radiate brilliance.
"Big guy, I advise you not to block me, or you'll die!"
As Lu Bu spoke, he clashed with Dian Wei once again.
However, this time was entirely different; both Lu Bu and Dian Wei had unleashed their full strength.
Each strike of Lu Bu's Heaven-Splitting Halberd was infused with terrifying internal force, and every collision with Dian Wei seemed to momentarily dim the heavens and earth.
Ordinary people couldn't intervene in such a battle; they couldn't even get within ten meters of them.
After Lu Bu's full-on eruption, he gained the upper hand over Dian Wei after just a few exchanges. Fortunately, the Mechanical Iron Tiger joined the fight under Lu HaiKong's control.
One was a 92-strength general, and the other was a 90-strength Mechanized Beast; these two top-tier forces challenged Lu Bu alone, yet they seemed to struggle, indicating that Lu Bu was inhumanly powerful.
Making matters worse, Lu HaiKong noticed the Mechanical Iron Tiger's defense rapidly declining. After just a few minutes of combat, its defense had dropped to 400. If this continued, the beast would be rendered useless soon.
Witnessing this, Lu HaiKong frowned: "Lu Bu is far more terrifying than I anticipated!"
Initially, Lu HaiKong believed that Dian Wei, along with the Mechanical Iron Tiger, would be enough to defeat Lu Bu. Now, he realized that this idea had been slightly optimistic.
While Lu Bu, Dian Wei, and the Mechanical Iron Tiger fought, on the other side, Pan Feng continued to charge into the fray, leading the Imperial Guard Legion like a ferocious tiger.
Among those who had broken through the walls, only Lu Bu's cavalry, barely, could withstand the might of the Imperial Guard Legion.
The Flying Wolf Cavalry (Unformed)
Strength: 35
Troop Trait: Unparalleled Cavalry Battle
Unparalleled Cavalry Battle: Active Trait, increases combat power by 50% and boosts charge by 50%.
This cavalry unit is still in its formative stages, but its strength is already formidable. However, this is not their full potential; they can only unleash their true power when led by Lu Bu. Unfortunately, Lu Bu is currently occupied by Dian Wei and the Mechanical Iron Tiger. At this moment, they are trapped between the county troops and the mountain bandits.
Pan Feng's butcher knife has already claimed numerous lives of the county soldiers and is now charging towards the Flying Wolf Cavalry. Under these circumstances, the Flying Wolf Cavalry has no chance against him.
As the temporary commander of this unit, Ding Li immediately activates the Unparalleled Cavalry Battle, leading the Flying Wolf Cavalry to break through the mountain bandits' encirclement.
Ding Li is well aware of the current situation; they can only achieve victory by capturing the city gate. Thus, after breaking free, they do not engage Pan Feng's Imperial Guard but instead bypass the battlefield and charge towards the city gate. Securing the gate will almost guarantee their victory.
However, this victory seems distant as the sound of horse hooves echoes within the mountain fort. The Black Gale Legion and the three battalions have already arrived.
In the 1691st chapter of the novel, this scene unfolds!
Before these three cavalry units could unite, the archers of the Black Gale Legion had already greeted them with a rain of arrows.
Inside the mountain fort, the space is limited, even though Lu HaiKong had temporarily cleared a large area. Accommodating over ten thousand infantry and cavalry for battle is still a challenge, and when the fighting begins, everyone is squeezed together, making it an extremely brutal affair.
This is especially true for the cavalry, who struggle to charge effectively. Tactical skills become useless in such close quarters, and only the most brutal slaughter prevails.
This situation is particularly disadvantageous for the Flying Wolf Cavalry. The Black Gale Legion, together with the three battalions, now numbers nearly six thousand. With three times the enemy force and the constant barrage of arrows from the recently recruited Divine Skill Practitioners on the fort walls, the Flying Wolf Cavalry is at a severe disadvantage.
From the start of this battle, the Flying Wolf Cavalry is on the back foot. Ding Li, despite his lack of strategic acumen, realizes that they are losing this fight, and capturing the fort walls is out of the question.
Gritting his teeth, he can only lead the Flying Wolf Cavalry back towards Lu Bu's location.
But this battle is not one they can easily enter or exit; even if he wants to retreat, it depends on whether Zhao Gang Wang will allow it. The Black Gale Legion and the three battalions seize the opportunity to press their attack.
The tide of battle now completely favors Lu HaiKong. The only unpredictable factor on the entire battlefield is Lu Bu.
If Lu Bu can pull off something extraordinary at this moment, like defeating Dian Wei and the Mechanical Iron Tiger, there might still be a chance to turn the tide.
And indeed, Lu Bu does something astonishing, but it's not by suddenly defeating Dian Wei and the Mechanical Iron Tiger. Instead, he suddenly notices Lu HaiKong's presence.
Having previously heard of Lu HaiKong's identity, Lu Bu immediately pushes Dian Wei aside and charges towards Lu HaiKong.
Capturing Lu HaiKong is his only chance to turn the tables, and as he sees the war god-like figure rushing towards him, Lu HaiKong's expression...
