Chapter 2227 timely rain
Wang Hui was so sad that he really regretted it. For the so-called credit, Wang Hui was so angry that he abandoned all the risks behind his head. His mind was thinking about how to kill the Shu army.
Everything is too much. Wang Hui chased him too hard. Not only did he trap most of the people in the cavalry camp, but he himself was in a desperate situation. Seeing the fire spreading ruthlessly, it was about to burn him to the side. Wang Hui said at this time that he was not responding to Tiantian, and he was deeply trapped in despair.
Relatively speaking, Zhang Qiao is more lucky. Although he also had the idea of competing with Wang Hui, the strength of the Jinqi Camp does not allow it. The Tunqi Camp can ignore all attacks from arrows, but the Jinqi Camp cannot do it.
Therefore, when Zhang Qiao was chasing, he still maintained a calm attitude. The troops he invested were obviously much less than those of the Tunqi Battalion. Moreover, Zhang Qiao himself did not charge forward like Wang Hui. Zhang Qiao was always in the middle of the Jinqi Battalion team and was in a safer position.
Especially after attacking Dengying Gorge, although he couldn't see how high the mountains on both sides were, a hint of chill appeared in Zhang Qiao's heart. After all, the roads in Dengying Gorge were too narrow, and in this dangerous terrain, it was the most susceptible to ambushing by the enemy.
Zhang Qiao was still more cautious and did not go deep into the canyon like Wang Hui. When the Shu army launched an attack, Zhang Qiao retreated early. Before the huge rock of the Shu army fell, he had already escaped from Dengying Gorge successfully.
Zhang Qiao had just left Dengying Gorge, and when he heard the roar of rocks behind him, he turned around and saw the fires rising. At that time, Zhang Qiao's heart sank. Although he was lucky enough to escape from the encirclement of the Shu army, Wang Hui's Clan and some of the people from the Clan Camp were still trapped in the encirclement.
Zhang Qiao didn't have time to be grateful, so he immediately organized troops to rescue him.
Although there is a competitive relationship within the Wei army, it does not mean that the two armies will fight each other across the river. After Zhang Qiao escaped by chance, he was not glad that he could save his life, but instead went all out to rescue him.
But the rolling huge rocks blocked the way, and there were even more flames ahead, and the flames were surging. Seeing the Wei army rushing desperately in the sea of fire, Zhang Qiao felt heartbroken as if he was a knife. Unfortunately, no matter how anxious Zhang Qiao was, it would be useless. After all, he was not a divine weapon from the sky and did not have the ability to put out fires. Now there are huge rocks and fires in the canyon blocking the way, so even if Zhang Qiao had the heart, he would not be able to do it.
Unless there is a timely rain that will burn out the fire - wait, Zhang Qiao suddenly felt the cold face. When he looked up, he found that it was raining. As expected, it was raining. Raindrops as big as beans fell from the dark night sky. Zhang Qiao laughed wildly at the sky, bathed in the cold rain, like an old farmer who had experienced a long drought, ecstatic and dancing.
Under normal circumstances, marching and fighting are the most annoying rainy days. Rain often represents muddy roads and slow movements. If it is more serious, it may affect marching and fighting, and have a great impact on the situation of the war. A victory that was at hand was ruined by a heavy rain.
But now Zhang Qiao probably has never been more eager for a timely rain in his life than now. Now that the Wei army is facing difficulties, only this heavy rain can save them.
Wang Hui and the Wei soldiers, who were in desperate situations, were even more overjoyed at this moment. They were alive in a desperate situation, and they were alive in a desperate situation!
Originally, Wang Hui and the others were completely desperate. There were seas of fire everywhere in the narrow valley. Moreover, the Shu army used huge rocks to block the Wei army's retreat. The horse could not move. It was even more difficult to walk across this sea of fire that stretched for miles than climbing to the sky.
There are life and death on the battlefield. In the face of the threat of death, Wang Hui was much calmer. He just regretted that countless cavalry and cavalry were buried in the sea of fire because of his mistakes. This was completely unforgivable.
The fire ruthlessly rushed towards Wang Hui's position. Wang Hui could even feel the hot fire waves. The high temperature and thick smoke made him feel like he was about to suffocate. Many Wei soldiers were actually dead before being burned by the fire. The fire burned in the canyon, and many poisonous smoke could not spread out at all. Many Wei soldiers quickly fainted after breathing the poisonous smoke.
The Shu army was quite prepared. They prepared a lot of fire-driven objects for this fire attack. The narrow valley of Dengying Gorge became the best place to set fire. Once the fire broke out, the people inside had no chance to escape.
Unless a miracle happens...
But just as the Wei army was in despair, a miracle really happened. Raindrops as big as beans fell from the sky and hit the blazing fire.
The fire seemed not willing to fail. It raised its high head and swallowed every drop of raindrops. Many raindrops had vaporized before they even came to the flames. A white gas formed above the sea of fire, and the scene was extremely spectacular.
But the rain was getting heavier and heavier. The fire dragon, who was unwilling to fail, finally surrendered. Most of the flames were burned out, and only some remaining flames were still burning tenaciously in the heavy rain. However, the rain continued to ruthlessly destroy them, and the flames became weaker and weaker. In the end, there was no trace of fire in the entire valley anymore, and only heavy rain was pouring.
The rain wet the armor, cold and heavy, but the cavalrymen all cheered and cheered. They had never been as excited as they were today. This timely rain was not just timely rain, it was simply life-saving rain.
Many Wei soldiers had already knelt on the ground and thanked God. If it weren't for the mercy of God, they would have probably all been buried in the fire. If it were just luck, no one would believe it. How many lifetimes of virtue will it take to cultivate goodness to get such luck?
The Shu army on the top of the mountain looked regretful. The rain was like a coincidence, sooner or later, it was the most critical moment. The sudden heavy rain extinguished the fire in the canyon, allowing the Wei army trapped in it to survive.
The soldiers of the Shu army all looked at Simalun. The person who was most disappointed now should be Simalun. This ambush was carefully designed by Simalun. It was originally a situation of great victory, but it was stopped by the ruthless heavy rain. Simalun's mood can be imagined.
Sima Lun's face was as deep as water. He bathed in the storm, smiled bitterly, and sighed sadly: "This is the destiny of heaven, how can human power be violated! Send the order and withdraw the troops."
