Chapter 808

The earth was shaking!

At this moment!

Countless dust was flying!

Under the gaze of countless people, the hundred-plus siege engines under Yuan Shao's command launched an attack on Sishui Pass simultaneously, smashing fiercely against the sturdy walls of Sishui Pass.

Boom—!!!

Thunderous roars were incessant.

Dust was flying, and explosions were raging!

Large swaths of the city wall were smashed into rubble by the catapults, and smoke and dust were falling everywhere.

As time passed, the sturdy city gates also began to show cracks, and countless debris drifted about!

Although the gates were not broken.

But if this continued, breaking the city was only a matter of time.

Not only that.

In addition to siege carts, the coalition forces also had siege buildings like ladder carts.

While attacking the gates, they were also seizing control of the city walls.

The catapults were responsible for suppressing the Sishui Pass defenders on the walls.

The ladder carts were responsible for setting up ladders, allowing the troops under the various feudal lords to suppress them further from the walls, perhaps providing time for the siege carts to destroy the gates.

Under such dual suppression, if defending generals like Guo Si and Li Jue had no other means.

There was basically no suspense about the coalition taking Sishui Pass today.

But in fact.

Guo Si, Li Jue, and the others had no more trump cards. The only thing that could be called a trump card was perhaps the two hundred thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

But in the situation of a huge disparity in numbers, and in this siege battle, the two hundred thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry couldn't exert any effect at all.

Even if all two hundred thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry charged, they couldn't break the coalition's formation.

Unless they disregarded casualties and took the two hundred thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry to gamble, destroying the enemy's siege engines, they might have a chance to succeed.

But if they did this, if the two hundred thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry were lucky, they might only suffer heavy casualties, but if they were unlucky, they would absolutely all be buried here.

And once the Xiliang Iron Cavalry were all buried, even if they defended this Sishui Pass, what would be the use?

One must know that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry were all Dong Zhuo's lifeblood. Once gone, the consequences would likely be even greater than losing Sishui Pass.

Therefore, Guo Si, Li Jue, and the others had no way out now. They didn't dare to go out to fight, nor did they dare to retreat easily and lose Sishui Pass.

They could only watch helplessly as the coalition forces consumed the durability of the gates and walls bit by bit.

Seeking self-subscription, seeking evaluation.
