At dawn, the sun rose from the east, illuminating this majestic pass.
The war horns echoed atop the majestic pass, and the Cangzhou army moved silently under the dawn.
At this time, the Yaohua Pass garrison had been repeatedly targeted by equipment such as the "Breaking Qi Crossbow," "Splitting Qi Arrow," and "Shattering Qi Crossbow Arrow."
Sun Wukong, Baihu, and others, who had not appeared in the siege force for several days, reappeared in the Cangzhou army.
Bathed in the morning light, these war gods appeared exceptionally majestic.
They stood in the midst of the besieging army, their eyes fixed firmly on the imposing pass ahead, watching with predatory intent.
The white tiger in the middle holds a knife and a spear, its movements as agile as a leopard.
His eyes flashed with a sharp light, as if they could see through all hypocrisy and lies.
A slightly unruly smile played on his lips.
The White Tiger, ranked fourth on the World's Heroes List, is known as "The One Who Makes All Beasts Repel"!
His presence added an invisible force to the entire siege force of the Cangzhou army.
On the right, Sun Wukong holds a long staff, its body golden under the blazing sun, as if it had been forged in a raging fire.
His eyes were sharp as an eagle's, his posture upright as a pine tree, exuding an indomitable strength.
On the left, Wu Wenhua holds a golden-threaded wooden paddle, his gaze is as deep as the sea, his black hair is draped over his shoulders, and his tall and robust figure adds to his majesty.
After Sun Wukong, Baihu, and others dug day and night, the tunnel under Yaohua Pass was finally completed.
It extends from one side of the pass to the other, reaching the bottom of the city wall.
At this moment, they once again led the siege army of Cangzhou to launch an attack on Yaohua Pass.
As time went by, the sun gradually rose higher and the morning mist gradually dissipated.
The attacking forces of Cangzhou began to stir, with soldiers nervously checking their equipment and weapons.
Sun Wukong and his companions remained calm and composed, knowing that now was the time to demonstrate their true strength.
Suddenly, a horn sounded, and the entire battlefield instantly erupted in excitement.
The Cangzhou army's siege force surged toward the fortress like a tidal wave, while Sun Wukong and his men led their troops to charge at the forefront.
They brandished their weapons and roared battle cries, as if they wanted to devour the entire world.
The defenders on the fortified pass were equally resilient, fighting back bravely with a barrage of arrows and stones to retaliate against the attacking army.
In an instant, the entire battlefield was shrouded in thick smoke and dust, with the screams of soldiers and the neighing of warhorses ringing out from time to time.
Led by several war gods, the Cangzhou army launched its fiercest attack on Yaohua Pass.
Behind them, Zhuque led a battalion of archers clad in crimson armor onto the battlefield.
Armed with magnificent gold and red longbows and carrying quivers embroidered with a hundred birds, they quickly took up advantageous positions and unleashed wave after wave of arrows at the defending soldiers.
At this time, the Vermilion Bird Camp no longer launched attacks in a scattered manner as it had at the beginning. Instead, under the leadership of Vermilion Bird, they all appeared at the rear of the battlefield.
The arrows rained down like a storm. In the hands of the Vermilion Bird Camp, ordinary arrows seemed to transform into death's pronouncements, almost always hitting their mark!
The soldiers guarding Yaohua Pass were no match for the attack and fell to the ground, struck by arrows, under the sudden onslaught of the Vermilion Bird Camp.
At the same time, the Cangzhou army also climbed the ladders one after another, holding spears and broadswords, and charged forward bravely without retreating.
Led by war gods like Sun Wukong, the infantry charged forward bravely, breaking through the defenders' lines of defense.
The soldiers defending the city were scattered by this sudden attack, and many of them lost the ability to resist.
At this moment, they charged forward as if they were unafraid of death.
In the middle, Sun Wukong, wielding the Ruyi Jingu Bang and clad in golden chainmail, led the charge, his long staff resembling a golden dragon, sweeping away all obstacles in the enemy ranks.
The White Tiger, wielding the White Tiger World-Slaying Spear and the White Tiger Sacred Blade, was not to be outdone. He nimbly weaved through the enemy ranks, sometimes slashing enemies with his sword, and sometimes knocking them away with his spear.
Wu Wenhua, who was the last to reach the city wall, kept shouting loud battle cries and waving his golden-threaded wooden pike, inspiring the soldiers to advance bravely.
Upon seeing this, Li Jing, who was in the rear, immediately began to adjust his tactics.
He ordered a portion of his soldiers to continue their assault at the front, drawing the attention of the defenders.
At the same time, a signal was issued, indicating that another group of soldiers would quietly emerge from the tunnels and launch an attack from below the Yaohua Pass city wall.
Bang!
Bang!
Bathed in the morning light, the Cangzhou army that Li Jing had arranged in the tunnels immediately began to move.
Leading the group was none other than Li Nan, who commanded the Five Elements Armored Forces. Even the first and second teams were present, including the Great Sage of Ventilation, the Macaque King, and the Great Sage of Driving Gods, the Yu Rong King, both peak-level divine generals.
At Li Xinnan's signal, the troops in the tunnel quietly emerged from the bottom of the city wall, shook off the dust, and quickly occupied advantageous positions.
Their main mission was to coordinate with the soldiers attacking from the front to launch a pincer attack on the defenders on the city walls.
The Cangzhou soldiers whom Li Jing had arranged to launch the sneak attack through the tunnels were mostly well-trained, and they all knew the importance of this attack.
At this moment, they gripped their sharp blades tightly, their eyes fixed firmly on the defenders on the city wall.
"kill!"
At Li Xinnan's command, the army in the tunnel rushed towards the city wall like an arrow released from a bow.
A group of them, led by the ten divine generals of the first and second teams of the Five Elements Armor, charged directly onto the city wall.
The other group, led by the Great Sage Monkey King and the Great Sage Yu Rong King, headed straight for the tightly closed, heavy city gate of Yaohua Pass.
At this moment, the defending troops on the city wall were on high alert, doing their utmost to defend against Sun Wukong and his men who were launching a fierce attack on the city wall from the front.
They thought the Cangzhou army would attack from the front, just like they had for the past two weeks. They never expected the soldiers in the tunnels to launch a sneak attack from behind and directly undermine the Yaohua Pass city wall.
For a time, the garrison on the walls of Yaohua Pass was caught off guard.
"Damn it, below the city wall behind us!"
"Quickly, guard the city gate!"
Upon seeing his anus suddenly violated, the garrison commander of Yaohua Pass nearly distorted his voice, and his expression changed rapidly.
Although, under his control, a small group of his garrison quickly adjusted their formation to prepare for the sudden attack.
However, most of the garrison troops were exhausted from defending the city for days and did not have such a fast reaction speed.
The reaction was that the Cangzhou army appeared behind them, and they all froze on the spot.
At this moment, the Cangzhou soldiers in the tunnel, led by Li Xinnan and others in Five Elements Armor, took advantage of the terrain and quickly climbed up the city wall.
They brandished their sharp blades and engaged in close combat with the defenders.
The Cangzhou army, which suddenly emerged from the tunnels, launched a swift and unexpected attack, catching the defenders on the Yaohua Pass city wall somewhat off guard.
Therefore, the exhausted Yaohua Pass garrison, driven by their physical instincts, began to fight back fiercely.
However, under the fierce attack of the soldiers in the tunnels, they gradually began to be at a disadvantage.
At the same time, the attacking army at the front, under Li Jing's command, launched an even more ferocious attack.
They charged toward the city wall with shouts, firing spears and arrows at the defenders.
The entire battlefield was filled with thick smoke and dust, accompanied by shouts, the clash of swords, and screams.
The bloody battle scenes were shocking.
