"Damn, why is it raining at this time!"

On the wall of Yongzhong City, looking at the torrential rain that was pouring down, many soldiers cursed in a low voice.

It was the second day after the previous tentative encounter, and the sky was still clear in the morning, and it was still raining before noon, followed by a torrential downpour.

The rain was so strong that it obscured the view, and it was hazy ten meters away, and nothing could be seen from any distance.

Shang Ji and the others also stood on the city wall, their faces a little solemn.

Unlike ordinary soldiers, they have more information and can clearly sense the strangeness of this rainstorm.

According to information from other places, the torrential rain only covered a small half of Yongzhong City, and the western area of the enemy army was pouring torrential rain, while the east was full of sunshine, which was indescribably strange.

"My lord, the big thing is not good, according to the survey, the water level of the moat of Yongzhong City is rising rapidly at an abnormal speed, and it is about to rush out of the riverbank."

"What?"

Shang Ji was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the pouring rain outside the city, and said coldly: "Are you sure the water level is not rising because of the heavy rain?" ”

"No, the moat of Yongzhong City is directly connected to the sea, and no matter how strong the rainstorm is, it will not cause the water level to skyrocket in a short period of time!"

"Order, immediately send scouts out of the city to find out the cause of the water level in the moat."

After a pause, Shang Ji added: "As soon as possible, at all costs!" ”

"Yes!"

The guards immediately went down to give the order, and the others glanced at each other, and Xi Zhi came out and said: "Lord, my subordinates have just tried it, and there is really something wrong with this rainstorm, and it was extremely repulsive when it dispersed the rainstorm, and it is obvious that this rainstorm is caused by spells." ”

"It's just that it is beyond the cognitive range of subordinates to form such a large range and such a high intensity of rainstorm!"

For high-ranking scribes, it is not difficult to control the wind, frost, rain and snow, for example, Xi Zhicai is proficient in the method of fog control, and he can form a dense fog that spreads for dozens of miles on his own.

However, the difficulty of rain is higher than that of fog control, and the average senior scribe is reluctant to control a light rain covering one or two villages, which is used for irrigation.

And Yongzhong City is a royal city, and the majestic rain that can cover half of the royal city requires more mana than Xi Zhicai imagined.

"No, this rainstorm is indeed controlled by someone, but the operator is definitely not alone. In the opinion of his subordinates, this is at least what a powerful spell can do if he is a powerful man with deep spell attainment, and he can preside over a large army of spellcasters. ”

"Legion of spellcasters?"

Hearing this name, Shang Ji's heart suddenly sank.

At any time and in any force, the caster legion is a killer existence, and if used well, a spellcaster legion can easily annihilate a hundred battle elite soldiers. Moreover, the formation of the caster legion is extremely difficult, and many princes with good combat effectiveness cannot make up a formed spellcaster legion.

But after thinking about it a little, Shang Ji was relieved. Poseidon is also one of the three giants in Greek mythology, and his status is directly comparable to that of the great emperors of many historical regions, and it would be strange if he didn't even have a spellcaster army under his command!

"Order all departments to strengthen vigilance, increase reconnaissance, and beware of enemy surprise attacks."

However, Shang Ji's order seemed to be redundant, and until an hour later, he did not see the enemy taking advantage of the torrential rain to launch an attack, which made Shang Ji secretly wonder what was the intention of the enemy army to create a large-scale rainstorm and not take advantage of the torrential rain to attack?

But soon, Shang Ji's doubts were solved!

"What do you say? River backflow? ”

"Yes, my lord, according to the report of the scouts who sent out reconnaissance, there was a river backflow at the mouth of the river that connected the moat, and the sea water was surging, and the impact of the heavy rain caused the water level of the moat to rise sharply this time.

The water level is still rising, and it will not be long before the water level is eight meters higher than normal, and it will not be long before the city walls are threatened. ”

Chen Guan reported with a solemn face. Although he is not proficient in military affairs, he can also see the threat posed by the continued rise in the water level.

Even if the city wall of Yongzhong City is at the level of a royal city, it can't withstand the river water soaking for a long time. Moreover, as the emperor of the sea, Poseidon must have no shortage of troops under his command who can fight in the water, such as the previous Cancer Knight, with the immersion in the sea and the destruction of the enemy army, no one can say how long the walls of Yongzhong City can last.

"My lord, it's not good, the enemy army is attacking again!"

At this moment, the piercing sirens sounded on the city walls again, and the enemy army took advantage of the heavy rain to attack again.

Due to the heavy rain, the power of defensive weapons such as the Burst Torch Stonecart, Bow and Crossbow, Magic Arrow, Magic Cannon, and Thunderbolt Fire has been greatly reduced. The torrential rain also seriously affected the line of sight, causing considerable trouble to the Shang army's counterattack.

Relatively speaking, the Poseidon army did not have this problem, the strength of the Sea Emperor army did not decrease in the torrential rain, but increased, and even the speed of the charge of those cannon fodder fish monsters increased by two percent.

As a result, a large number of Sea Emperor's troops rushed to the city walls, and even many began to storm the city gates.

In the end, it was Zhang He who led the Phantom Pawn of a hundred battles, who could adapt to the whole geographical environment and had the least impact in the rainstorm, as the main force, and successfully defeated the enemy army with the cooperation of several other major arms.

After the defeat of the enemy, the torrential rain gradually began to subside, but the water level of the moat continued to rise, even overflowing the base of the city walls.

Taking advantage of the sunny weather, Shang Ji hurriedly sent the Flying Phoenix Fire Cavalry to reconnoitre, and finally successfully found the location of the enemy spellcaster legion after paying a lot of losses.

According to the introduction of the returning Feifeng Fire Cavalry, the enemy's spellcaster legion is on a hillside not far from the mouth of the sea, and the number is huge, and there are no less than 5,000 people for a rough reconnaissance.

As for the more detailed information, there are heavy guards around the caster legion, including a large number of anti-air weapons, and the Flying Phoenix Fire Rider was attacked by concentrated fire as soon as it approached.

This also put an end to the idea of Shang Ji sending troops to raid the caster legion.

When the enemy army is prepared, sending the Flying Phoenix Fire Cavalry to attack is to send them to death. As for sending ground troops, with the enemy's emphasis on the caster's legion, the end result is a full-scale battle.

In a decisive battle with Poseidon's army on the beach, Shang Ji's brain was not broken, of course it was impossible to do so.

Not to mention anything else, it depends on their ability to make the rivers pour back, and when the time comes, the Seventh Army will be flooded, and there will be no place for Shang Ji to cry!

Seeing that the water level was getting higher and higher, but the military generals were helpless, Shang Ji understood how wise Guo Jia said to abandon Yongzhong City and the enemy army in the interior.

After three more days, seeing that the flood had begun to pour into the city, Shang Ji finally made up his mind to completely withdraw from Yongzhong City, but before retreating, Shang Ji decided to give a gift to the Polish evil alliance.

It's not Shang Ji's style to only be beaten and not fight back!
