Just then, a panicked shout came from not far away:
"General Ono, they have reinforcements again! It seems like they're never going to stop!"
"We've killed wave after wave, when will this ever end?"
"I don't think this will work. We should avoid a direct confrontation and withdraw our troops first. We definitely can't take Linbin City today."
"Let's regroup another day and take it in one fell swoop!"
The speaker was none other than Chen Hongbo.
Chen Hongbo's mention of withdrawing troops would have been fine, but it immediately ignited Ono Jiro's anger, and any remaining thought of withdrawing vanished.
"Baka!"
"Military orders are absolute; we must capture Linbin City! How can we allow our efforts to fail at this crucial moment!"
"Our army is unstoppable! All troops, heed my command! Slaughter these people with all your might!"
"No one is allowed to back down! For Japan! Fight to the very end!!!"
Jiro Ono roared and, instead of retreating, actually led his troops in a charge!
His action immediately darkened Chen Hongbo's face, and a curse arose in his mind:
"Damn it! For Japan, I'll do anything for your mother's ass!"
"To continue fighting under these circumstances? Is this son of a bitch blind or out of his mind?!"
"I just want to stay alive so I can follow you and eat meat and drink soup, not fight you to the death here!"
Chen Hongbo's gaze shifted, and as he watched the newly arrived reinforcements charge into the battlefield, his heart grew increasingly panicked.
"Never seen them before, where the hell did these people come from?"
"This is like seeing a ghost in broad daylight! There are more and more people here. Could they be Jin Fengluan or Qin Ze's men? And what kind of flag is this?"
"Although I don't recognize them, judging from their appearance, they're not a weak team..."
"Damn it, this is no place to stay for long. Of the thirty-six stratagems, running away is the best."
Having made up his mind, Chen Hongbo rode his horse into the crowd and then quietly retreated towards the city gate.
Meanwhile, one contingent of the newly arrived reinforcements split off upon reaching the battlefield, heading directly towards the city gate.
All they had to do was guard the city gates!
Of course, this is not to defend against foreign enemies, but to keep them in check!
Therefore, this army needs to traverse the battlefield quickly, and they must possess formidable martial prowess.
Dian Wei, carrying two halberds on his back, led a group of soldiers and ran wildly along the city wall, heading towards the city gate.
Meanwhile, seeing that the main force had arrived, Lü Bu also rode his horse toward the city gate.
——
"Oh no, they've sent reinforcements again. What are we going to do?"
Ding Momin, who wanted to kill Lü Bu, looked anxious as he watched the troops cutting into the battlefield, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
Although they had already gained the upper hand, the battle had dragged on for so long, and now they had to fight these newly arrived troops, which meant that capturing Linbin City today would be even more difficult.
Moreover, this newly arrived army was large in number and carried some unusual weapons, which made Ding Momin realize that something was wrong.
In this situation, continuing the fight would likely lead to trouble.
He turned his head and saw that Ono Jiro was impatiently leading his men into battle, and it seemed that he had no intention of retreating. Ding Momin secretly thought that things were going to get bad.
These Japanese are so eager to make a name for themselves; after fighting for so long, they've probably gotten carried away!
"If we keep fighting, the outcome is still uncertain. I can't let my life end here." Ding Momin was about to leave when his gaze swept over Lü Bu.
At that moment, Lu Bu was riding Red Hare and quickly traversing the battlefield. Ding Momin's eyes lit up, and she had an idea.
"Hmm? Why not take this man's head? Even if we retreat from Linbin City, we can explain to the Japanese afterwards that we were injured while killing the enemy general and had no choice but to withdraw from the battle."
"This way, we can have the best of both worlds! We won't be blamed for desertion afterward!"
Thinking of this, Ding Momin breathed a sigh of relief; this was the best solution at the moment.
The next thing to do is simple: in this chaotic battlefield, take him by surprise and take his head!
Thinking of this, he whistled, and Wang Kehai, who was not far away, immediately responded.
Ding Momin made a few gestures, then pointed to Lü Bu, who was fighting his way to the city gate. Wang Kehai nodded and took out a bow and arrow from the quiver on his back.
The two then gave chase, one after the other.
"Those who block my way shall die!"
With a cold shout, Lü Bu swung his halberd, knocking two Japanese soldiers to the ground.
When the Japanese soldiers landed, their weapons broke in two. Lü Bu didn't even glance at them before walking away with his halberd.
He did not forget what he should do at this moment: to reach the city gate, occupy it, and not let any Japanese leave the city!
Only in this way can the main force annihilate the Japanese in the city!
But as they got closer to the city gate, they encountered more and more enemy soldiers along the way, since these enemy soldiers had just entered through the city gate not long ago.
With a "bang".
With another halberd strike, the enemy soldier before him was swept to the ground. Red Hare leaped up, its hooves landing heavily on the man.
"Ahhh!"
A painful howl came from the enemy soldier's mouth. The hooves were so heavy that they caved in his sternum, and his internal organs shattered like an egg.
Red Hare snorted and followed with its hind hooves, stepping over the enemy soldier's face. The screams stopped abruptly as the man's dislodged teeth were crushed into his throat, and his face was reduced to a pile of mangled flesh.
"Hahaha, great!"
Lu Bu laughed loudly and thrust his halberd forward again!
But as soon as he thrust out, Lü Bu raised an eyebrow and abruptly changed direction.
With a "snap," an arrow that had been shot from nowhere was struck down by the halberd blade.
"Rustling!"
Just as the flying arrow was deflected, two more cold arrows shot in!
Lu Bu frowned even more deeply, and with a series of movements, his halberd spun like a windmill in his hands, knocking all the incoming arrows to the ground.
But just then, a furious roar came from the side:
"Hey! Take this!"
Before the roar had even completely subsided, a swift slash came toward the left side of Lu Bu's body!
Lu Bu's face began to flush red, and as his eyes twitched slightly, he swung his halberd!
With a "clang" sound!
The large sword that was about to strike flipped backward, almost flying away.
The one who drew his sword was none other than Ding Momin, who had been eyeing Lü Bu for a long time. He didn't know how terrifying the person in front of him was until they actually fought.
At this moment, his hands were trembling uncontrollably, a tingling sensation spreading through his palms, causing even the blade to tremble slightly.
His eyes were wide open, and his heart was pounding.
It was only then that he realized he seemed to have made a very wrong decision.
Just then, a furious shout filled with boundless rage exploded in Ding Momin's ears;
"A sneak attack? You've got some nerve!"
