Chapter 484: Flooding and Leaving the Fox

When the night moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the flood appeared in the second half of the night, there were even city guards who discovered the anomaly in time, but it was completely useless.

A dim line spread from the west side of the fox city, and the raging flood was like a monster with a huge mouth open, devouring everything it encountered, shaking the guard on the city wall to the point that his whole body was weak and his face turned pale, and it took him a while to remember to shout.

"Roar! Boom Boom Boom"

The flood didn't give the defenders of Lihu City much time to react, and in an instant, the dim line had surged from a very far distance to the bottom of Lihu City, and slammed into the tall walls of Lihu City.

"Boom!"

Although Lihu City is a high-level city, the city wall is as high as 12 zhang, and it is very thick, but when the flood rushes to the foot of the wall, the defensive guards on the city wall are still hit by a huge object, and they shake a few times.

Fortunately, although the flood was fierce, it did not directly break the city wall, and the solid city wall from Fox City became a dam, blocking the surging flood and temporarily blocking it outside the city.

After a cup of tea, the surrounding area of the city was completely submerged by the flood, and in addition to water or water in the dim vision, the entire Lihu City had become a rock in the flood, stubbornly resisting the beating of the flood.

The large flood was temporarily blocked, but the city wall of Fox City was not an airtight dam, as the water line outside the wall slowly rose, water began to seep through the city wall, and the city began to become muddy.

Especially in the position of the four city gates, the water leakage is even more severe, and the guards of the city have almost piled up all the materials that can be filled up on the ramp under the city gate. Still unable to stop the flood water gushing in through the gaps around the city gates!

"Click..."

The gates of the city were also under the tremendous pressure of the flood. It makes a tooth-aching sound. Of course, such a small sound has long been drowned out by the surging of the flood.

"Click! Call... Sprinkle..."

When the water level outside the city rose to two-thirds of the height of the city wall, the gate on the west side of Lihu City finally couldn't bear the huge pressure at first, and was washed away first, and a large flood rushed into Lihu City.

"Wow, the West City Gate is ...... flooded"

"Run! Run away..."

“……”

The nearby defenders were the first to suffer, and before they had time to shout a few words, they had already been hit by the rushing water at the bottom of the waves, and there was no trace of them!

Even if there are soldiers who are far away trying to deliver the message inward. Just shouted two sentences and was caught up by the flood, and after a few waves, I couldn't find anyone again. In the midst of such a surging sound of water, who can hear the shouts from here?

There is a big gap between the water level inside and outside the city, and as soon as the west city gate is broken, it seems to become a hole in the embankment, and the water rushes into the city from here in a fierce manner, and the waterline in the fox city is also slowly rising.

The guards soon noticed this and began to climb up the walls, rooftops, and trees, and a few managed to reach the heights, but most of them were swept away by the flood before they could dodge.

"Click! Roar... Roar..."

“……”

The surging flood did not diminish its power just because it found an outlet. Soon, the other three city gates of Fox City were also rushed open by huge pressure one after another, and the scene on the side of the west city gate was staged in four directions from Fox City at the same time......

The walls of the high-level castle are solid. However, the gate is too weak, and when the city is usually attacked, it is possible to break open the city gate with a simple wooden collision controlled by dozens of people, not to mention the impact of a huge flood!

The collapse of the four city gates caused the flood to rush into the city unscrupulously, and the water level from Fox City was also rising rapidly, although the power was blocked by the four city walls, most of the buildings and defenders in the city could not escape the doom of being submerged.

At first, you can hide from the rooftops and treetops for a while, but only a quarter of an hour has passed, and it is difficult to avoid the water in such a high place, because the water level inside the city has almost caught up with the water level outside the city, almost reaching the height of most of the city walls!

As a result, the only places that can escape the flood for the time being are the inner and outer city walls, as well as a few gate towers. Counting the hundreds of thousands of defenders and tens of thousands of strong men in the entire Lihu City, only a small part of them can rush to the city wall in time.

And because the ramp to climb the city wall and the city gate tower is really not crowded with too many people, the guards even began to kill in order to climb the city wall, and the number of soldiers who can really climb the high place is far lower than this number!

At this time, Yang Rui was using the synergy talisman seal, and together with Zhang Ning, he drove the Dao Wind Flying Carpet to inspect the situation around Lihu City, and the scene of the flood breaking into Lihu City and the fratricidal killing on the ramp along the city wall naturally fell into the eyes of the two.

Yang Rui and the others were originally going to come to mend the knife, but the situation of the defenders in front of them from Fox City made Yang Rui a little unbearable, and the scene of flooding from Fox City made Yang Rui once again appreciate the original cruelty of the war, this cruelty is probably unavoidable both in reality and in the game!

Although there are tall city walls separated by them and it is impossible to witness them with his own eyes, Yang Rui can easily judge the sudden death speed of the defenders in the city from the plot points and merit points that are rapidly beating in the character information column!

The last time I encountered such a situation was when Yang Rui burned the yellow turban twice, when Yang Rui successfully set fire to the fire with the two yellow turban talisman seals of the Thunder Fire Talisman and the Star Fire Talisman, and achieved amazing results.

Especially in the first battle of Changshe, Yang Rui used the thunder fire talisman to break the wave talent, and burned out more than one million plot points and merit points in one torch, which established his leading position in the plot of the Yellow Turban Uprising in one fell swoop!

At this time, Yang Rui's points and merit points in the plot of Dong Zhuo's Rebellion can no longer be shaken, but the harvest of flooding Fox City this time is still not to be underestimated!

It can also be seen that as long as the power of water and fire in the game is used well, it is extremely powerful, and even several classic battles in the romance have a lot to do with water and fire.

Guo Jia's strategy to flood Fox City this time is undoubtedly successful, which mainly depends on two prerequisites, one is the location and terrain of Fox City, and the other is the identity of NPCs in Fox City.

Lihucheng is high in the west and low in the east, and is located near the bend of the Yellow River, due to the perennial filling of the Yellow River channel is much higher than Lihucheng, which is the condition for Yang Rui to dig the Yellow River to borrow water.

On the other side of the Fox City is a tributary of the Yellow River - the Luo River, which is equivalent to sandwiching the Fox City in its branches, even if Yang Rui breaks the Yellow River, it can only impact the range of a hundred miles from the Fox City, and then it will be blocked by the Luo River and flow back into the main stream of the Yellow River.

At the beginning, Guo Jia was keenly aware of this, so he thought of the strategy of flooding Fox City, but if it weren't for the fact that there were not many NPC people in the city, Guo Jia might not have calculated this, and Yang Rui would not have adopted this strategy.

At this point, I would like to thank Liu Dai for his initial initiative to almost empty the NPC people of Lihu City in order to save food!

Rao was like this, Yang Rui still spent a lot of time clearing out all the NPC people within a radius of a hundred miles from Fox City, so as not to cause unnecessary sacrifices.

As for why the camp was located west of Lihu City at that time, it was mainly because the west side was much higher in terms of terrain, and it was located in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and it was convenient to secretly send troops to dig the embankment of the Yellow River, and it was more convenient to retreat.

In fact, in the first two days when Yang Rui set up camp, he had secretly evacuated his soldiers from the vicinity of Lihu City in batches, just leaving some high-ranking soldiers to guard against enemy spies from leaving the city.

Of course, some of the remaining soldiers had to deliberately make some noise to pretend that the army was still in the original camp to hide people's eyes. Whether it's a feint, a meal, or a campfire at night, it's not a short of anything!

Rao is so, if the defenders of Fox City are cautious enough, they can still force themselves out of the city and find out Yang Rui's details, Yang Rui and Guo Jia have calculated that most of the soldiers in the city are low-level soldiers, and they have always been in a state of stubborn defense, and they will not risk going out of the city to check!

Otherwise, it would be easy to find out the fact that Yang Rui had withdrawn his troops in batches......

A day has passed, and the flood water level inside and outside Fox City has always remained at a height of eight or nine zhang, but the flood outside the city has stabilized a lot, and it is no different from the ordinary river surface.

The defenders were still trapped on the walls, and although they were no longer threatened by floods, another very serious problem came to the fore - they hadn't eaten half a grain of rice in a day!

At this time, Yang Rui, Zhang Ning, and the boss of the remnant * led various transport ships to appear near Lihu City, and began to capture the soldiers on the city wall in batches.

At this time, the remaining soldiers from Fox City are just trying to survive, and they have long been overjoyed to see a ship to save them, where will they resist at all?! After half a day of hard work, Yang Rui and others were able to transfer all the more than 5,000 remaining captives from Lihu City.

Most of them were soldiers stationed at the city walls from the beginning, including Tier 6 archers, and there were more than 500 of them!

This was the end of the battle of Lihu City, and sure enough, as Guo Jia said at the beginning, he almost did not lose a single soldier, and wiped out the vast majority of the opponent's defenders.

At the same time, the trick of digging the embankment of the Yellow River also made Lihu City directly become an abandoned city, and the main stream of the Yellow River even moved its position slightly......

When Yang Rui reappeared in the army, it was a full two days later, and at this time, Yang Rui's army had arrived at the southeast side of Guanxian County under the command of Guo Jia, echoing with the soldiers and horses of Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Wu Anguo, and loosely surrounded the county seat of Guanxian in the middle, only the southwest side of the city did not have Yang Rui's troops for the time being.

And this side is the direction to Puyang City, Liu Dai's old nest! (To be continued......)
