The next day.
Lü Bu once again inspected his troops at the drill ground. With a wave of his hand, thousands of gleaming suits of armor and steel spears appeared on the field.
These were precisely the steel battle armors from the modern era.
"Don the armor immediately and follow me to the capital!"
"Yes."
The soldiers were overjoyed. With the strength of several thousand catties, plus the divine armor forged a hundred times over, what danger could there be in battle?
Even if they were struck by giant boulders while attacking a city, it would be difficult for them to be injured.
Furthermore, what they had gained was not just strength, but also speed; ordinary people could never hope to hit them.
The men stepped forward, each claiming a suit of armor and a steel spear, dressing themselves neatly.
In a moment, the three thousand soldiers transformed into heavy infantry, their might increasing by another notch.
In ancient times, heavy cavalry could be called the ace troops:
Have you not seen how the Qin King Li Shimin's three thousand-plus Black Armor Cavalry defeated Dou Jiande's hundred-thousand-man army?
And that was without soldiers who had been strengthened.
Now that Lü Bu's men had been strengthened, they could crush an army of a million in an instant.
Seeing the disciplined army, Lü Bu was very satisfied. With a thought, he opened the portal to the Cave Heaven: "Enter the Cave Heaven; we shall enter the capital immediately."
"Yes."
The soldiers lined up and entered the Cave Heaven one by one.
Afterward, it was the turn of Lü Bu's family.
This time entering the capital, he had no intention of returning to the border, so naturally, he would take everyone he could.
Once everyone had fully entered the Cave Heaven, Lü Bu closed the portal, circulated his true qi, and soared straight into the clouds, heading toward the capital.
Using true qi to fly was extremely fast; in less than an hour, the capital was visible in the distance.
Standing above the clouds, Lü Bu suddenly heard bursts of battle cries.
"So Dong Zhuo has already made his move. It seems I have arrived just in time."
He walked to the space above the imperial palace, looked down, and said in a loud voice: "You rebels, will you not stop?"
His voice was like thunder, immediately startling the people who were fighting.
Looking up at the sky, they saw a general standing in the void, his demeanor majestic, his face frosty, making people tremble with fear.
"Who are you?"
Dong Zhuo saw this and was shocked: "Men, fire arrows!"
At his command, soldiers loyal to Dong Zhuo naturally bent their bows and fired arrows toward the sky.
Suddenly, arrows flew like locusts, blotting out the sun.
Lü Bu sneered: "Dong Zhuo, you dare attack this general? You have truly brought this death upon yourself."
Seeing the rain of arrows flying toward him, he waved his hand, and the arrows reversed direction. With a series of *thwip* sounds, the men who had fired the arrows fell to the ground, struck by their own weapons.
With just one strike, all of the thousands of loyal soldiers under Dong Zhuo were killed.
When the others saw this, they no longer had any thoughts of resistance; *clatter, clatter*, weapons fell all over the ground.
"Men, go and seize Dong Zhuo and the others."
Lü Bu landed and opened the Cave Heaven portal. Three thousand soldiers emerged, fierce as wolves and tigers, and stepped forward to shackle Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo had originally wanted to resist, but he never imagined that he wouldn't even be able to fight off a single foot soldier.
"This is impossible!"
Dong Zhuo was broad-shouldered and thick-waisted; although his combat power was not as fierce as a general like Lü Bu, his strength was not much less.
At this moment, he swung his arms, but felt that the soldier pinning his arm was like iron; he couldn't shake it in the slightest.
"This soldier has such great strength!"
He looked at the other soldiers and saw that the fierce generals under his command were all like soft-legged shrimp, captured by these soldiers in the blink of an eye.
Dong Zhuo saw this and immediately doubted his life.
Are the great generals under my command so incompetent that they can't even beat a single foot soldier?
However, once he thought that these people were all under the command of the fierce general who flew down from the sky, he feared they were also heavenly soldiers, and felt it was only natural.
In just a moment, the entire imperial palace fell into Lü Bu's hands.
The three thousand soldiers incorporated the imperial guards and Dong Zhuo's Xiliang troops, and their numbers instantly reached one hundred thousand.
Lü Bu split off one thousand men, divided them into ten teams, and led the one hundred thousand surrendered troops to garrison the entire capital.
In just half an hour, the entire capital was in his hands.
The Imperial Garden.
Lü Bu summoned the Empress Dowager, the Emperor Liu Bian, Princess Wannian, and others. ===== CHAPTER 867 =====
