Tonight can be said to be the critical moment of this war. Cao Cao and Liu Bei did not go to rest and led a group of generals to wait in the tent.

There was a silence in the huge tent, and everyone seemed to be thinking about their worries. The heavy rain outside still had no intention of stopping, and the clamor echoed in everyone's ears.

Time passed without realizing it, and I don’t know how long it had passed, an officer suddenly ran into the tent through the rain curtain. Everyone couldn’t help but feel his heart and immediately looked at the officer.

The officer bowed to Cao Cao and said, "Report to the King of Wei, General Xiahou ordered the villain to come and report that the tunnel has been completed. Can you take action?"

Everyone couldn't help but feel happy and looked at Cao Cao in unison. Cao Cao suppressed his excitement and said to Liu Bei: "Xuande, it seems that God is really helping us! Our army will win this battle!"

Liu Bei nodded with conscience, clasped his fists and said, "It's not too late! It's a long night and dreams. We should launch an attack immediately!"

Cao Cao nodded and said to the officer: "Immediately send an order to Xiahou Yuan, and immediately lead his army from the tunnel to enter the city and raid the northern city gate!"

In the city, the hall of the capital.

Guo Jia stood in front of the sand table with an oil lamp holding up and thinking, his eyes swimming back and forth between Shouchun and his surroundings. He was obviously considering a strategy to defeat the enemy.

Zhang Fei came in from outside, took off the raincoat that was flowing in water and handed it to the personal soldiers who were coming up, and strode to Guo Jia.

He glanced at the sand table in front of Guo Jia and smiled: "I said sir, can you come up with a plan to defeat the enemy when you look at this sand table all day long?"

Guo Jia was startled and then realized that Zhang Fei had arrived beside him. He couldn't help but ask, "I wonder if all the four guards have been arranged?"

Zhang Fei rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You don't need to worry about this kind of thing. I have already arranged it! In case, I also ordered that Zhang Bao, who led three thousand cavalrymen to stand by at any time, so you can rest assured one hundred!"

Guo Jia nodded. His eyes returned to the sand table in front of him, frowned and murmured: "Our opponent is Cao Cao, but he is not careless at all!"

Zhang Fei looked a little contemptuous and said disdainfully: "Cao Cao is just a defeated general under the eldest brother. Sir, you are too cautious!"

Guo Jia shook his head without saying anything. He looked at the sand table and frowned and said, "The biggest problem now is this big flood! I don't know how long this will last?..."

Zhang Fei said confidently: "Don't worry! With the combat power of our army, there will be no problem in holding on for another ten days and half a month!"

Guo Jia asked back, "What if the heavy rain will continue after ten days and half a month?"

Zhang Fei uh, stared at Guo Jia and said angrily: "If so, I will live and die with Shouchun!"

Guo Jia smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "It's easy to die, but if you delay Your Majesty's grand plan to unify the world, then we will never be able to redeem our sins!"

After Zhang Fei was told this, he couldn't help but worry, and then said angrily: "It's useless to think so much now! Anyway, we will do our best to defend Shouchun! If God must let us fail, there is nothing we can do about it!"

When Guo Jia heard Zhang Fei's words, he couldn't help but suddenly realized and said with a smile: "The general is right! We will do our best to do our best, so why bother so worried about gains and losses! It seems that I am thinking too much!"

Zhang Fei laughed loudly, patted Guo Jia on the shoulder and said, "That's right to think about it!"

Guo Jia clasped his fists and said, "I still want to consider the strategy against the enemy. General, please take a break quickly! Defending Shouchun depends on the general!"

Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "I'm not sleepy, just sit with you!" As he said that, he walked to the side and sat down. But perhaps because he worked very hard this day, Zhang Fei fell asleep with his back on his back as soon as he sat down. Thunderous snoring sounds came one after another.

Guo Jia felt a little amused and cried, so he immediately focused on the sand table in front of him and continued to think about his strategies against the enemy.

At this time, the heavy rain filled the entire world had weakened. It seemed that God finally couldn't keep up with his future.

At this moment, Xiahou Yuan led 5,000 elite troops to secretly sneak into the north gate of the city through the tunnel. After passing through the city wall, the tunnel penetrated through the ground from a house just over twenty steps away from the city wall.

Because the Ming army near the city gate was bombarded by stone cannon vehicles outside the city, during today's war, all the residents near the city wall were moved to other places. Therefore, there were no people in the houses at this moment, which made the Cao army's actions convenient.

Five thousand people quickly came out of the tunnel and hid around the houses and inside the city wall. It was raining heavily at this time, and there was almost no one who could see his hands in the dark, so no one noticed the abnormality here.

An officer rushed to Xiahou Yuan and reported in a low voice: "General, everyone has come out."

Xiahou Yuan looked up at the outline of the city gate tower not far from the right and said, "Action now!"

Five thousand people immediately took action and ran straight towards the city gate not far away.

At the same time, in the dark outside the city, Cao Cao and Liu Bei had already assembled a large army and waited outside the north city gate.

The five thousand men led by Xiahou Yuan ran to the north city gate at full speed.

"Who is it?!" A cry suddenly came from the darkness.

Xiahou Yuan was startled and quickly looked in the sound, and suddenly saw a figure standing on the corner of the street on the right.

When Xiahou Dun was at this point, he didn't care about it and rushed forward and waved his knife and slashed!

Seeing Xiahou Dun coming in a fierce manner, the man hurriedly jumped back and dodged, but could not dodge. He was immediately cut open in front of his chest by the opponent's big knife and let out a shrill scream!

At the city gate not far away, the lieutenant who was in charge of guarding the city gate suddenly heard the screams from the darkness ahead, and they were all shocked.

The officer next to the captain said angrily: "Who is screaming in the middle of the night?!"

The captain said in a deep voice: "The situation is not right!" Then he drew out his long sword and shouted loudly: "Roll the alarm bell immediately! The whole army is ready to fight!"

The sound of the gong suddenly rang out loud, and it seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet night.

At the same time, five thousand elite troops led by Xiahou Yuan rushed out of the darkness and rushed straight towards Liu Xianjun who was guarding the city gate!

The two sides immediately broke out fiercely, and hundreds of defenders formed a front to fight to the death to resist the fierce attack of Cao's army, and the situation was in danger.

While Xiahou Yuan was attacking the city gate defenders, he divided half of his men and horses along the city wall ladder and rushed up the city wall to try to seize control of the city gate tower. The two sides also fought fiercely on the city wall.

Although the troops guarding the city gate tried their best to resist, the number of enemies was too large, and the entire defensive front could not resist the large number of people on the other side. Soon the entire defense line was destroyed by the surging crowds of the opponent!
