Once the gates are breached, the village's defenses will be instantly ineffective. With three times the strength of the opponent, Guan Yu believed that they would be able to kill the enemy without leaving a single piece of armor, and victory was close at hand.

However, just when Guan Yu thought that he had won the battle, a rapid bell rang directly above the city gate.

Then I saw thirty or forty jets of water falling from the sky at the same time, like a torrential downpour, and poured them on the city gate impartially.

Immediately afterwards, with a burst of "zila" sound, the sea of fire was instantly poured into the heart.

Most of the fire was gone in one fell swoop, and only a few sporadic fires remained......

Seeing this scene, Guan Yu was instantly surprised!

Where does this water come from?

How did the enemy find the source of fire so quickly? That's too fast, isn't it?

No way! We must not let them all be extinguished, we must quickly protect the fire.

Thinking of this, Guan Yu immediately stepped forward, and just wanted to tell everyone to use a shield to protect the fire, but saw that thirty or forty water columns fell on the city wall, directly extinguishing the sporadic fires in the field, and not even half of the fire was left.

Seeing that the last glimmer of hope was also extinguished, Guan Yu let out a long sigh, and his face was instantly covered with regret.

Although there are still a lot of materials left on the ground that have not yet been burned, they must no longer be used because they have been soaked in large water.

In order to strengthen the fire, Guan Yu piled all the materials under the city gate at one time, and there were no other materials available at the moment.

Therefore, after the last trace of spark was extinguished by the enemy, Guan Yu knew that today's fire attack plan had completely failed. If you continue to stay, you will only be beaten in vain.

Therefore, he had to give an order and ran to the west with the soldiers in disgrace.

Before leaving, Guan Yu didn't forget to look back at the soldiers on the city wall, his eyes were full of confusion.

For he still could not understand why there was a great deal of water poured over the city gates.

From the discovery of the fire to the final moment of extinguishing, it took less than three to five minutes.

No matter how fast the soldiers ran, they couldn't have found so much water in such a short period of time, right?

It's just too strange.

Could it be that Huaxing had already guessed that he would attack with fire, so he prepared water early in the morning and waited for himself to set fire?

If that's the case, then the kid is too smart, isn't he?

With such doubts, Guan Yu let out a long sigh and led his troops to the west.

Why go west instead of north to camp?

That's because Guan Yu still wants to go to the city gate in the west to see the situation again.

They were not the only ones in charge of setting fire to the door today, and the Ximen team led by Zhang Fei also brought a lot of things to ignite.

If they succeed in setting the fire, it will also be a good ending for Guan Yu.

But what was surprising was that as soon as Guan Yu was halfway through, he encountered the oncoming Zhang Fei team.

Seeing that Zhang Fei actually appeared here, Guan Yu was puzzled, and immediately stepped forward and asked:

"Third brother, shouldn't you be at the West City Gate? How, how did you get here? ”

Seeing his second brother, Zhang Fei was also stunned, and only after being stunned did he reply with a disappointed face:

"Alas! I, I didn't succeed in igniting the fire, I just withdrew from the west gate, and I wanted to go to the east to find you......"

Hearing that Zhang Fei failed to ignite successfully, Guan Yu's face instantly became a little ugly:

"Huh? You, you've failed too? Why? Did the other party go out of town to harass him, or was there another reason? ”

"I don't know what's going on, everything is going well, and all the materials have been ignited. But suddenly there was a clanging noise in the city, and then a great deal of water poured down on us, and wiped out all of us...... After that, I withdrew with my troops. ”

After talking about his situation, Zhang Fei opened his mouth and asked again:

"Second brother, are you, you also failed?"

If this was the case at just one side of the city gate, Guan Yu might think that Huaxing had just been lucky enough to extinguish the fire.

But at this moment, when he heard that Zhang Fei's situation was the same as his own, he quickly realized that Huaxing must have made preparations in advance, and it was definitely not a fluke.

"Well, I, like you, have been doused by the waters. Alas! It seems that the man surnamed Hua has long guessed that we will attack with fire, this battle ...... We didn't lose unjustly! Third brother, Mingjin should withdraw his troops. ”

Under Guan Yu's order, soon a crisp golden bell rang throughout the battlefield.

Tonight's fierce raid battle finally ended with the defeat of the Youzhou army.

……

Although the battle was won, considering the disparity in strength between the enemy and us, for the sake of insurance, Huaxing did not lead the army to attack. Instead, he stood on the watchtower and watched Guan and Zhang return to the barracks with their troops.

In the early morning of the next day, Huaxing inspected the battle situation last night for the first time.

In terms of personnel, a total of four people were wounded in the Huaxing army, and zero people died, and the wounded were basically wounded by the enemy's bows and arrows.

As for the gates and fences, it was found that only a small part of them were damaged, and it did not affect the overall solidity, so there was no need to replace them.

In other words, although the Huaxing army was the attacked side, they were almost unscathed.

As for the Youzhou Army, in comparison, their damage was much heavier.

According to statistics, the death toll of the Youzhou army last night was as high as 100, and there were more than 400 wounded, almost all of whom were wounded or smashed by bows and arrows and falling stones.

After this battle, the current effective combat strength of the Youzhou Army is only about 2,500 people.

Although there are many casualties, in Guan Yu's opinion, this is not their most difficult problem at present.

What worries him the most now is that since the failure of the fire attack, he and Zhang Fei have not been able to think of any way to break the enemy, and can only watch the time pass day by day.

No, in the blink of an eye, another five days have passed.

Up to today, the Youzhou Army has been stationed outside the village for 23 days and nights.

Seeing that the time left for them was getting less and less, not only Zhang Fei was anxious enough, but even Guan Yu, who had always been calm, couldn't sit still these days.

As soon as it was dawn on this day, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei got on the horse and came to the city gate with two thousand soldiers.

Unexpectedly, I don't know if it was good luck today, or Huaxing deliberately sold Guan Yu a face, Guan and Zhang just arrived in the city, and Huaxing, the coach of Luoyuan Village, appeared on the lookout.

Seeing Huaxing's figure, Zhang Fei immediately raised the snake spear in his hand, pointed at Huaxing on the stage and scolded:

"You are a child surnamed Hua, come down quickly......"

didn't wait for Zhang Fei to finish scolding, but he heard Huaxing interrupt the other party:

"I said, Brother Yide, you've been scolding for more than 20 days, why aren't you tired at all? If it were in my hometown, you would be a veritable troll. ”
