Li Pu's body was covered with countless arrows, and his life was declining rapidly. Fortunately, the Jiguan level was not high, otherwise Li Pu would have climbed up like this and would have been shot to death before he could climb up.

Finally, before he ran out of life, Li Pu climbed up to the level. Li Pu was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. If he retreated, he would be running away, which would definitely lower his imitation level. He could only rush up.

If the heavy armor hadn't blocked most of the arrows for him, he would have died on the way up the wall.

Li Pu decided not to show off like this next time.

But now that I've climbed the level, it's different...

Kill all around!

The spinning ax instantly chopped into pieces the seven or eight surrounding soldiers, and a surge of life force poured into Li Pu's body.

The wound just now was mostly healed, and the blood spurting out had stopped.

"Come! The general has already climbed the barrier!"

The soldiers who had just retreated immediately climbed up when they saw Li Pu, and chopped down a group of soldiers with a massive killing blow. They stood firm on the checkpoint. The soldiers who were stimulated by Li Pu's bravery returned faster than they had retreated.

Rushed to the pass.

He picked up the fallen ladder and climbed up the level again.

Arrows rained down on the level, and from time to time soldiers hit by arrows fell off the level.

But it was much easier than before, and Li Pu was already closing the door. The other soldiers followed Li Pu's position and climbed up the level to start slashing.

There was only one climbing level for Li Pu, then there were the second, third, and then a dozen climbing levels.

More and more people climbed up the level, and there were also many soldiers inside the level to support them, so the two parties began to fight on the wall of the level.

People kept falling from the checkpoint to inside or outside the checkpoint, but even so, the Destroying Legion did not take a step back.

Because Li Pu was right in front, and their general was charging forward with unrivaled strength, how could they retreat.

Countless soldiers followed Li Pu and killed each other from the checkpoint, while one person blocked the gate of the checkpoint.

Countless swords and spears pierced his body.

Li Pu swung his ax to smash the weapons that had been cut into the flesh, and then killed all directions with one strike. The residual limbs and blood were spread on the ground. Seeing this bloody scene, the guards kept retreating.

If these soldiers step back, Li Pu will step forward.

"Don't retreat! Kill them out!" a guard shouted from behind the crowd.

But the soldiers who kept retreating made his orders seem full of powerlessness.

The guard knew what would happen after Li Pu blocked them. The soldiers behind Li Pu were already opening and closing the door.

If these law-destroying soldiers cannot be killed before the door is opened, everything will be over once the door is opened.

But is it possible to kill so many people before opening the door?

The guard suddenly thought of this problem, then turned pale, turned his horse's head and prepared to escape.

But there were soldiers running away all around. Although they were riding horses, they couldn't move faster at all.

The war horse was driven wildly, and its big hooves trampled over the fleeing soldiers.

Finally, one of the soldiers couldn't bear it any longer and thrust the spear in his hand into the horse's leg. The horse's legs were separated by this, and the war horse fell to the ground, and the guard on the horse also flew out from the horse.

It happened to fall on a discarded spear. The guard was pierced from the back by the spear, the spear head was pierced from the chest, and blood spurted out from the chest.

Seeing that the guards were about to die, Li Pu also stopped chasing and allowed the soldiers to escape.

"No killing of prisoners is allowed, quickly occupy the checkpoints, and go to bed in Dongheng County at dawn."

After Li Pu casually gave instructions, he helped up the tripped war horse, patted the horse's back and found that the horse was not seriously injured, so he asked the soldiers to take it aside to feed it.

The troops quickly took control of Jiguan, cleared out all the defenders in the pass, and left a thousand soldiers to guard Jiguan. The remaining soldiers went to Dongheng.

The continuous mountains along the way looked like giant beasts in the night. Li Pu led the soldiers on the night road.

It was very dangerous to walk at night, but Li Pu had no choice but to do so.

After Li Pu conquered Hanoi County, all the counties in Chang'an probably knew that the Jizhou Army was invading, and it would be very easy to be ambushed if they advanced at dawn.

It is much safer to march at night. Most people in this era were malnourished and night blindness was very common.

But Li Pu didn't need to worry about this. The Pali Legion was well fed, so there was no such thing as night blindness.

Once ambushed, you can quickly counterattack, whether attacking or retreating, you can advance and retreat freely.

"Two brothers, I think we should defend the city. The three of us guarding Chang'an together will not be an iron wall. So what can Pan Feng do to us?"

Fan Chou was almost fuming with anger. Li Jue and Guo Si actually asked him to guard Tongguan alone, with only his own troops and no additional troops.

If Fan Chou agrees, he is mentally ill. Although Tongguan is one of the most dangerous passes in the world, Pan Feng is not an ordinary person either.

What would he do if he was defeated by Pan Feng and his two brothers slapped their butts and ran away?

Brothers share blessings and share hardships. Let him, Fan Chou, guard Tongguan and still not send troops?

Beautiful thought!

Instead of doing this, it would be better for the three of us to guard Chang'an together and die together!

Sure enough, when Fan Chou suggested that the three of them guard Chang'an together, Li Jue and Guo Si were dumbfounded.

Since ancient times, I have never heard of anyone abandoning Tongguan to defend Chang'an. Fan Chou obviously didn't believe them when he said this.

The three of them had only 140,000 soldiers and horses in Chang'an, and Fan Chou only had 20,000 soldiers and horses. Even so, Fan Chou was very supported by the soldiers. What if more Fan Chou was given to rebel?

When Pan Feng didn't come, Fan Chong killed the two of them first and collected their troops. Fan Chong could become a famous prince in one leap.

The three of them were at a stalemate, and they discussed it for two days without reaching a conclusion.

The three of them were arguing with each other. Fan Chou was afraid that he would be betrayed by Li Jue and Guo Si. Li Jue was afraid that Fan Chou would take away his soldiers and Guo Si would stab him. Guo Si was afraid that he would be plotted by Li Jue and Fan Chou.

The atmosphere in Chang'an City became even more tense. The three of them could not reach an agreement at all, and Li Pu was getting closer and closer to Chang'an. They were afraid of Li Pu coming in and backstabbing his teammates.

Under this pressure, the three finally compromised with each other.

Li Jue sent 20,000 soldiers and Guo Si sent 10,000 soldiers, plus Fan Chou's 20,000 soldiers, a total of 50,000, to guard Tongguan.

Li Jue and Guo Si left 10,000 troops to guard the civil and military officials in Chang'an City. They were together at Gaoling outside Chang'an City. Firstly, they provided support to Fan Chou. Secondly, they were on guard against Zhang He in Bingzhou. Thirdly, Fan Chou felt that he was in time.

It will also be easier to run around.

With an army of 30,000 people supported by two people plus his own army of 20,000 people, he could still run away even if he broke through.

Moreover, after Fan Chou entered Tongguan, he put 10,000 of his soldiers as a reserve force, and the remaining 40,000 troops went to the pass to guard.
