It's getting darker.

It's not like a normal night, there is a feeling of storm coming.

The breeze was blowing, and it was very cool.

On the wall of Hanguguan, the black flags that are planted everywhere, but look a little tattered, are fluttering in the wind, making a whirring sound.

The torches everywhere and the light of the fire in the fire tray also swayed with the breeze, and lit up all parts of the city wall.

Except for some soldiers with spears in their hands, stationed in various parts of the city wall, their eyes fixed on the passes, most of the soldiers, holding weapons in their arms, leaning against the passages of the city wall, closed their eyes, resting.

Except for the sound of the breeze, everywhere seems to be very calm, and there is a trace of peace.

And Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, and Pang Tong are also patrolling all parts of the city wall.

After a short rest, they also woke up, unable to sleep peacefully, and prepared to patrol the city walls.

Besides, it won't be long before dawn, but I woke up a little earlier, and it won't have much impact.

"Looks like it's going to rain!"

The three of them stopped at one of the city walls, held on to the city walls, and looked out of the city, Pang Tong looked at the sky and spoke.

Huang Zhong and Ma Chao also nodded in agreement.

There is no need to guess, just look at the sky now, and the breeze that keeps blowing, you can know, after all, in normal times, at this time, the sky has begun to gradually brighten.

But now, the sky was groggy and had no intention of lighting up.

You know, it's almost dawn and the people are getting up and working, but there is no sign of it, and you still need to light torches and fire trays to see farther.

"Looks like the weather isn't so good today!" Huang Zhong sighed and said.

They all knew that the coalition forces would continue to attack the city today, and with the soldiers and horses in Hangu Pass now, it would not be easy to hold on for a day.

Moreover, Yuan Shao and Liu Biao were able to find out the whereabouts of the army led by Qin Yin personally, and they could also know about it.

Although Qin Yin led the army directly from Chang'an when he learned the news, the transfer of the army, even if it was arranged in the morning, still needed a certain amount of time, and it also took time to hurry.

No matter how fast it is, it can't be reached in an instant.

After speaking.

Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, and Pang Tong all fell silent.

Their hearts are also very heavy.

Although they knew that there was still a choice, that is, to give up garrisoning Hangu Pass, and Qin Yin would not blame them for this, but in this way, it would not be easy to recapture Hangu Pass.

If the combined forces of Yuan Shao and Liu Biao occupy Hangu Pass, it will become troublesome if they want to drive it away.

However, in this way, it is possible to preserve the remaining troops, no longer have too many losses, and merge with the army and then plot.

But...

They all knew this choice in their hearts, but no one wanted to mention it.

Tick-tock, tick-tock...

Suddenly.

Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, and Pang Tong could all feel the wetness on their faces, and before they could react, a light rain fell in the sky, and the raindrops fell all over the city wall, making a sound.

Moreover, the three of them also saw a figure flickering in the distance outside the city.

Whoa...

The rain also became heavier rapidly, and it was originally just a few raindrops, but now it was pouring rain, and it was accompanied by thunder.

When the heavy rain fell, it also instantly made everyone on the city wall become soup chickens, and their whole bodies were soaked, and the rain slid down their faces and dripped on the city wall.

"Prepare the soldiers!" Huang Zhong said.

Pang Tong and Ma Chao also nodded, and commanded the cronies on the left and right.

After all, the figures flashing in the distance were also getting closer and closer, and it was obvious that they were the soldiers of the coalition forces who had come to attack the city.

This battle is also inevitable.

When the cronie heard the command, he also quickly departed, and went to all parts of the city wall, making arrangements.

And because it was raining in the sky, the soldiers of the Qin army, who were resting in various parts of the city wall passage, also woke up, and without too many orders, they had already picked up their weapons and stood everywhere.

These soldiers of the Qin army did not pay attention to the rain, and took out a dry food from their arms before the coalition army arrived, and ate it directly.

This is also dry food that has been prepared early in the morning.

Besides, they also need to replenish their energy so that they can fight for a long time.

Although they are all nobodies, just soldiers, they all know that today's war, once the war starts, it will be an undying existence, and there will be no time for them to rest and eat.

And the coalition forces rushed over at this time.

They don't have time to eat breakfast leisurely, so they can only take advantage of this time to eat some dry food.

As for eating dry food in the heavy rain, for them, it is not a problem at all.

Huang Zhong, Pang Tong, and Ma Chao were also staring at the coalition forces outside the city at this time.

Torches and fire trays on the city walls.

Because of the heavy rain, many of them have been extinguished, and only the torches under the eaves of the walls and pavilions are still burning, but they are also crumbling.

The extinguishing of torches and fire trays also made the city walls much darker.

It also looks a little blurry from a distance.

Only the lightning flashing in the sky from time to time made the surrounding scene very bright, but it was only a fleeting moment, not a lasting event.

Of course.

In any case, what should be fought still needs to be fought, and it will not change because of this.

At least, the coalition forces, which were gradually approaching, had no idea of an armistice.

Thinking about it, Yuan Shao and Liu Biao both knew that only before Qin Yin led the army arrived, taking Hangu Pass was their chance, and if they waited until Qin Yin led the army to arrive, then they would lose the best opportunity.

In this way, no matter what the weather is, they will come to attack the city.

It's only raining now, and it doesn't affect the siege too much, let alone change the idea of attacking Hangu Pass.

Of course, they didn't know about Yu Ji's affairs, they just thought it was a normal siege.

As the rain intensified, there was a drowsy sky.

The vision in the distance is also a little blurry, but you can still see the coalition forces that are gradually approaching, and there are many people, densely packed, and you can't pay attention to it.

Thundered~

From time to time, thunder sounded in the sky, and after the thunder, a flash of lightning flashed.

Slowly.

The army of the coalition army, braving the heavy rain, came to the city wall and lined up.
