Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and Zhang Fei also felt the same as Hao Meng but with a slightly different feeling which was that they were elated that they had the advantage over Lu Bu and Hao Meng, especially after Xiahou Dun told Xiahou Yuan and Zhang Fei that there's something wrong with Lu Bu, but unbeknownst to all people here there was someone who was approaching their location.
Lu Bu and Hao Meng were standing tall side by side holding their weapon and entered a defensive stance as they were outnumbered and outgunned, while Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and Zhang Fei approached their location to encircle the two of them.
When Xiahou Dun, Xiahiu Yuan, and Zhang Fei were in the right spot, without any words said between the three of them, they attacked Lu Bu and Hao Meng simultaneously.
Lu Bu was targeted by Xiahou Dun and Zhang Fei while Hao Meng was targeted by Xiahou Yuan, this caused Lu Bu and Hao Memg to be separated as Xiahou Dun came from the middle, and with Zhang Fei's help, he pushed Lu Bu away from Hao Meng.
Hao Meng who wanted to come to Lu Bu's side was distracted by Xiahou Yuan's attack, especially since Xiahou Yuan was much stronger than him so Hao Meng had to fight cautiously and didn't have the chance to go to Lu Bu's side.
Lu Bu who was facing Xiahou Dun and Zhang Fei knew that he needed to show much more prowess than his previous due against Xiahou Dun, especially since he felt Zhang Fei's prowess after deflecting his attack.
So he did that and when he attacked Zhang Fei with more power, he felt the stitches on his wound open and felt the blood wearing his shirt on the back, of course, the stinging pain didn't bother him but he knew that it could get infected if he doesn't end this as soon as possible.
Xiahou Dun and Zhang Fei who were surprised by Ku Bu's sudden outburst of strength after how mediocre his power was before, smelled the blood that came out from Lu Bu's back and immediately knew that Lu Bu was wounded previously and currently recuperating.
Like a shark smelling blood in the sea, Xiahou Dun and Zhang Fei begin to intensify their attack on Lu Bu, causing Lu Bu to follow their pace of attack and resulting in another wound of his to be opened.
Hao Meng who was facing Xiahou Yuan was also in a crisis like Lu Bu, as cautious as Hao Meng was in facing Xiahou Yuan, at the end of the day his stamina and strength were much lower than Xiahou Yuan's.
Lu Bu's men seeing that Lu Bu and Hao Meng were in a critical situation, wanted to help their Lord and General but unfortunately, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's men held them off so that they couldn't support Lu Bu and Hao Meng.
While everything seemed on Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and Zhang Fei's side, a loud girly shout suddenly was heard across the Northern Wall, and in a flash a figure suddenly appeared helping Lu Bu.
This figure was Lu Lingqi who was heading toward the Northern Wall after hearing that it needed help since Xiahou Dun dominated this field, and when she arrived she saw how her father was in a situation she never expected to see which was a losing situation.
Fearing that something could happen to him, Lu Lingwi immediately rushed to his side and parried Xiahou Dun's attack that was heading for Lu Bu's torso, surprising Xiahou Dun with the kind of prowess she had.
Xiahou Dun never expected that Lu Lingqi would be this strong, her prowess was a bit above Lu Bu's weakened state that he faced previously, making Xiahou Dun realize that he needed to face her seriously.
Lu Lingqi's appearance rejuvenated the low morale Lu Bu's men have after seeing Lu Bu and Hao Meng in a critical situation, relieving the bad situation Lu Bu's army faces on the northern wall.
Lu Bu who saw Lu Lingqi helping him told her to retreat and head toward Chen Gong as it was safer there but Lu Lingqi didn't pay attention to what he said, she continued to face off with Xiahou Dun.
Lu Bu is frustrated with his daughter's stubborn character, and when he wants to continue reprimanding her Zhang Fei's attack continues relentlessly toward him, which causes Lu Bu to hold off the word he wanted to say.
Meanwhile, at the main wall, Gao Shun and Hou Cheng confronted the formidable Guan Yu. In a fierce duel, Gao Shun and Hou Cheng succumbed to Guan Yu's might. As the dust settled, a breach in their defense emerged, providing an opening for Cao Cao and Liu Bei's forces to gain a foothold.
Cao Cao and Liu Bei seeing this seized the opportunity, strategically advancing with his troops as they poured through the breach, exploiting the weakening defenses of Gao Shun and Hou Cheng area.
As chaos engulfed the battlefield, Chen Gong, witnessing the perilous situation at the main wall, swiftly dispatched Song Xian and Wei Xu, to reinforce Gao Shun and Hou Cheng aiding the two of them.
Amid the frantic clashes, Song Xian and Wei Xu fought valiantly, carving through the opposition to reach Gao Shun and Hou Cheng's location to aid them. The desperate struggle for the main wall intensified as the defenders rallied against the relentless assault.
Simultaneously, on another front, Zhang Liao and Cheng Lian found themselves on the brink, standing against the overwhelming might of Xu Chu. Every strike seemed like a force of nature, threatening to shatter their defenses.
As Chen Gong skillfully orchestrated the defense on multiple fronts, the clash between Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian, and the formidable Xu Chu reached a critical juncture. Every strike echoed with the ferocity of a tempest, pushing the defenders to their limits. The fate of the Main Wall of Beihai hung in the balance.
Meanwhile, the timely intervention of Song Xian and Wei Xu proved crucial for Gao Shun and Hou Cheng. However, victory was bittersweet, as Guan Yu, in a final surge of strength, managed to inflict a serious injury upon Hou Cheng.
The wounded Hou Cheng grimaced in pain as they were forced to retreat, relinquishing control of the contested area to Guan Yu as they knew that they couldn't face him.
With Guan Yu now holding a strategic position, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's forces surged forward, flooding the Main Wall with a large and determined force.
This caused an emergency for Chen Ging who saw that the balance he tried to create for so long was finally broken, and with a heavy heart, he told the war drummers to sound the retreat beats.
He also sent messengers to the Northern and Southern Walls relaying orders for Lu Bu's army to surrender through the Western Wall where they would retreat toward the West side of Qing Province.
When the war drum of retreat was sounded across the Main Wall, all of Lu Bu's soldiers at first didn't believe what they heard at first but after confirming that it was true, they began to retreat from the Main Wall slowly while guarding against the attack coming from their rear.
Zhang Liao and Cheng Lian who were having Xu Chu heard this sound like it was a sound coming from Heaven because they were on their last straw facing Xu Chu who was growing stronger and stronger with each bout.
The collective retreat of Lu Bu's Army on the main wall didn't go unnoticed by both Cao Cao - Liu Bei's side and Lie Fan's side, where the former immediately and the rest of their army to take down Beihai's Eastern Wall which was the Main Battlefield.
Chen Gong organized the retreat in an orderly fashion not allowing Cao Cao and Liu Bei's men to take advantage of their retreat, while all of this was happening Chen Gong's messenger soon reached the Northern and Southern Wall.
In there after receiving Chen Gong's message, the war drummer sounded the beats of retreat, and Lu Bu's army in those locations also began to retreat, but Lu Bu, Lu Lingqi, and Hao Meng who was on the Northern Wall couldn't retreat due to Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and Zhang Fei.
Lu Lingqi: "Father we needed to retreat right now! If we don't do it right now, we will be encircled by Cao Cao and Liu Bei's soldiers!"
Lu Bu: "Father know that Qi'er! Why didn't you and Hao Meng retreat first?! Father will cover the two of you from these three bastards!"
Zhang Fei: "Haha! You, bastard of three surnames will never leave this area as long as I Zhang Yide standing here!"
Xiahou Dun: "Humph little girl don't be too arrogant talking while dueling with me! Your pretty head will fly away if you continue to do so!"
Lu Bu: "Huh?! You dared to threaten My Daughter?! Looks like you need to die here today!!"
Lu Lingqi: "Wait Father don't listen to what he said, he is just trying to influence your emotions!"
Lu Bu who heard what Xiahou Dun just said was angered and after carrying Zhang Fei's attack he kicked Zhang Fei in the stomach stunning him, Lu Bu then attacked Xiahou Dun ignoring what Lu Lingqi was saying.
Xiahou Dun tried to parry the attack but Lu Bu who was controlled by his emotions couldn't be stopped, Xiahoud Dun was knocked off the ground due to the impact from carrying Lu Bu's attack.
Lu Bu who used all of his might caused a toll on his body, the wound that was opened again was already bad enough but now the poison that was suppressed by him can't be suppressed anymore.
After attacking Xiahou Dun, Lu Bu coughed some blood that came out from his mouth, surprising Lu Lingqi especially after she saw that the blood was colored black.
Realizing the bad condition her father was in, Lu Lingqi helped Hao Meng who was under Xiahou Yuan's relentless assault, after relieving Hao Meng from Xiahou Yuan's attack, they together with Lu Bu began to retreat toward the Western Wall, where Chen Gong and the others are waiting for them while Cao Cao and Liu Bei's men were closing in on them.
