Yuan Shao felt that continuing like this was a waste of time. The enemy generals inside the pass were too calm and they had no way of luring them down.
"Everyone, the enemy general is too cautious. We can't wait any longer."
"Alliance leader, let's storm it. The adventurers are already clamoring for it."
The person who spoke was Liu Bei.
He has the most players among you, so naturally he needs to satisfy the players' voices.
Without the players he is nothing.
"Okay! We have to find out the truth first."
Anyone would frown at attacking such a magnificent pass, but now that Liu Bei has taken the initiative to request it, everyone is happy to see it happen.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Liu Bei immediately gave the players an order - attack.
Then the players launched a tidal attack on Hulao Pass.
"Kill! Kill them! Capture Hua Xiong alive!"
“Kill!”
“…”
The shouts and cries of killing shook Hulao Pass.
At this moment, Hua Xiong and Niu Fu on the top of the city wall couldn't help but frown as they saw so many people climbing up the ladders.
"There are so many people here. I don't know if our soldiers can hold on."
Niu Fu was still worried, but Hua Xiong said with a disdainful smile:
"These are nothing but rotten fish and shrimp. As long as our soldiers keep rotating, none of them will be able to come up."
Hua Xiong certainly knew this. Without the support of powerful generals, no matter how many people there were, all the achievements would be his, Hua Xiong's.
The battle for Hulao Pass by the Allied Forces officially began.
The players climbed the ladder desperately, but when they were still halfway there, they were knocked off the ladder by rolling logs and rubble.
Although the coalition forces were completely at a disadvantage at the moment, none of the bosses felt any burden.
After all, these people are just adventurers, and if they die, it's nothing more than paying a few points.
However, these points still need to be settled after the war.
Especially Liu Bei, he used these players without any scruples.
Anyway, apart from his three brothers, the only title he had left was that of a relative of the Han royal family.
Everyone's plan at this moment is simply to use up all the supplies at Hulao Pass, so that fewer of their men will die.
However, this time Hua Xiong had sufficient supplies, and he attacked the pass for a whole day without stopping.
By nightfall, Liu Bei saw that the number of his adventurers had decreased by a million.
This made him feel a little sad.
But it's just a little bit. He will spend lavishly on the resources that are offered to him proactively.
I won't cherish it at all.
The same is true this time.
The adventurer will be resurrected after death anyway, and he doesn't need to spend points, so just let him die.
At the end of the first day, when Liu Bei wanted to continue sending players to attack the city, the players were unhappy.
"Uncle Liu, if we continue like this, we'll suffer too many casualties. How about we let other princes go today? We'll just be cannon fodder. Leveling up is not easy for everyone. We'll lose a lot of experience if we die once."
"Yeah, we can't always be the ones doing this kind of cannon fodder work."
Liu Bei listened to everyone's opinions, and he could let them die without any scruples.
But he also knew the consequences of whether people supported him or not.
He advised: "How about we attack for another day? If that doesn't work, we can let others go. Is that okay?"
Liu Bei's words still work.
After everyone heard Liu Bei discuss this with them, they no longer objected.
They were all well-known for Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness.
I won't let them die easily. This time it must be full of deep meaning.
really!
When they attacked again, the enemy no longer rolled logs and stones at them.
This time the other side started shooting arrows at them.
This indicated that all the rolling logs and stones at Hulao Pass had been used up by them.
This made everyone believe Liu Bei's words without a doubt.
It was all thanks to them that the supplies at the border were consumed.
Although the casualties were a bit high, they felt it was worth it as long as it helped everyone.
Facing the attack from bows and arrows was much easier than yesterday.
This time they could at least reach the top of the city wall.
When we climbed up yesterday, not only could we not see the top of the city wall, but we were knocked down by the defenders when we reached halfway.
At this time, Niu Fu began to frown again.
"We're running out of rolling logs and gravel, so our attack is becoming more difficult. I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out until the Grand Tutor arrives."
"Don't worry. We still have so many people, what are we afraid of? We're just short of some supplies, so what's there to be afraid of?"
Niu Fu was still worried and asked about Dong Zhuo's location.
When Niu Fu heard that they would arrive in one day, he felt relieved.
But the princes under the pass were not so relaxed.
"Everyone, isn't this way of attacking too easy? There's no pressure on the city walls at all."
Gongsun Zan, who had been silent all this time, could no longer bear to watch.
This tactic of adding fuel to the fire can only consume the defenders' supplies, but has no impact on the battle situation.
Naturally, many people noticed this trend, including Cao Cao, Ma Teng and Sun Jian.
However, none of the three expressed any opinion.
When Yuan Shao saw that it was Gongsun Zan who was speaking, he knew that the other party was good at fighting, so he asked:
"I wonder what Brother Bogui has to say?"
"I don't have a good idea. I think we should take Hulao Pass in one fell swoop, instead of attacking slowly like we are now."
"Brother Bogui's words are not without reason. I wonder if you have any solution?"
Yuan Shao was still wondering what good ideas Gongsun Zan had when he heard the other party say:
"We must gather all our generals to attack the city walls."
Yuan Shao was in a dilemma now.
If anything happens to the generals under his command, the prefects and governors will not be able to control the troops.
"Isn't this too risky? You know, this is the first stage of our campaign against Dong Zhuo. If we suffer heavy losses here, we won't be able to deal with him in the future."
At this moment, Gongsun Zan was seen as Dong Zhuo's undercover agent in Yuan Shao's eyes.
"Although this is a bit risky, it's the fastest way to take Hulao Pass. If we continue to delay and wait until the enemy adventurers are resurrected, how can we fight them?"
"Brother Bogui's words are not without reason, but if our losses are too great, there is no need to continue fighting."
Gongsun Zan slammed the ground under his feet heavily and sat down dejectedly.
Yuan Shao simply disagreed with his opinion.
At this time, someone stood up and said:
"I see we consumed some of their supplies yesterday, so let's continue to consume them today. Once we have used up all the bows and arrows, we should be able to attack according to General Gongsun's method."
This person came to smooth things over, to please Gongsun Zan while not offending Yuan Shao.
Everyone had no objection, after all, it was still several days before the adventurers were resurrected.
Liu Bei's followers held out for another day.
