    Cao Ren immediately ordered: "Attack!"

    "Cao Ren!" Liu Zhe shouted from the city wall, "You are here, aren't you afraid that your home will be stolen?"

    "Bah," Cao Ren responded disdainfully, "Do you think Chang'an will be defeated so easily?"

    Cao Ren was really not afraid of Chang'an being attacked. Chang'an's defense was perfect, so he left 50,000 troops to defend Chang'an.  Cao Ren did not dare to say that he could hold on for a long time, but he was still confident that he could hold on for ten days and a half.

    While he was holding Chang'an, as long as he teamed up with Cao Cao to capture Tongguan and capture Liu Zhe, he would be the winner.

    Cao Ren said to Liu Zhe: "Liu Zhe, you don't have to talk nice. Today I will capture Tongguan and capture you alive."

    However, Cao Ren felt strange that his men had begun to slowly move towards Tongguan, but there were not many defenders on the city wall, only two or three kittens.

    Cao Ren thought Liu Zhe was ambushing them behind the battlements and waited until his soldiers approached before suddenly appearing.

    However, things were not as Cao Ren thought. His soldiers were almost advancing to the bottom of the city wall. The number of defenders above still did not increase. The attacks on his soldiers by the defenders on the city wall were sparse and ineffective.

    It¡¯s so strange, there must be a conspiracy.

    Cao Ren was determined. With this thought in mind, he sent an order to his men to be careful.

    However, when his soldiers advanced to the bottom of the city wall and began to set up ladders, the number of defenders on the city wall remained the same and did not increase.

    What does Liu Zhe want to do?  Cao Ren felt uneasy, this was too abnormal.

    Generally speaking, when conducting a defensive battle to defend a city, the defender will try to kill the enemy to the maximum extent when the enemy attacks, try to prevent the enemy from climbing up the city wall, and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.

    However, Liu Zhe now seems to want to engage in hand-to-hand combat.  Such abnormal behavior made Cao Ren very strange, and at the same time he was very worried about Liu Zhe's plot.

    Although Cao Ren thinks Liu Zhe can¡¯t defend the city, he¡¯s not such an idiot, right?  In view of Cao Ren's understanding of Liu Zhe, he believed that Liu Zhe definitely had some conspiracy waiting for him.

    "General, what should we do next?"

    Cao Ren sensed something was wrong, and his men also sensed something was wrong. The siege team that went to test the situation only had about ten people dead, which was really strange.

    "Continue to attack!" Cao Ren saw that the probing siege team had already climbed halfway, but there was still no big attack on the city wall.  He gritted his teeth and ordered.

    At this point, he can only bite the bullet.

    "Report" Suddenly, the sound of a fast horse came from behind.

    "What's up?"

    Seeing the spies speeding towards him, Cao Ren's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition came to his mind. He blurted out and hurriedly asked the spies.

    "Report to the general."

    The spy had panic on his face and scars on his body, as if he had experienced a fierce battle. He quickly rolled off his horse and said: "Weinan was attacked by Liu Zhejun and has fallen."

    "What?" When Cao Ren heard this, he was immediately shocked. He couldn't believe that the news was true, and said angrily: "This is impossible."

    Weinan City is more than 120 miles away from Chang'an and is the east gate guarding Chang'an.

    From the map, Chang'an, Weinan, Linjin, and Tongguan are four points connected to form a y shape. Chang'an is the point below the y, Weinan is the middle point, and Linjin and Tongguan are the two points above the y.

    There are two ways to enter Chang'an from Linjin, one is from Niyang to the south, and the other is from Weinan.  From Chang'an to Tongguan, there are only Weinan, Huaxian, Huayin and Tongguan roads.

    Because of Cao Cao's orders, Cao Ren gave up many defensive strongholds, but he did not give up on Weinan. Instead, he concentrated some troops from Huayin in Hua County to Weinan to further strengthen Weinan's defense.

    So when Cao Ren heard that Weinan had fallen, his first reaction was that he didn't believe it. Weinan had at least 20,000 soldiers and horses, and including county soldiers, there were at least 30,000 more.  And because of Weinan's important location, Cao Ren put a lot of effort into it, including fortifications and defensive tools.  Cao Ren felt that even if 30,000 pigs were used to defend Weinan, it would take several days for the enemy to attack.

    Weinan is very important to Cao Ren. By guarding Weinan, he can deal with Liu Zhe at Tongguan with peace of mind. If he loses, he can quickly pass through Weinan and return to Chang'an.

    Now that Weinan has been cut off, Cao Ren is surrounded by Liu Zhe's army from front to back.

    "What's going on?"Ren jumped off the horse, grabbed the spies' clothes, and asked anxiously.

    "It was a sneak attack. Liu Zhejun sent spies to sneak attack Weinan. Li Xiaowei, who was guarding the city, was shot to death as soon as he showed his head. We were unable to withstand Liu Zhejun's attack and finally collapsed." The spy stammered and told Cao Ren the general situation.

    "Damn it, damn Liu Zhe." Cao Ren was so angry that his eyes were red, and it was another sneak attack. What the hell, is there nothing other than a sneak attack?

    Cao Ren hated Liu Zhe's sneak attacks. He was attacked a few days ago, which caused him heavy losses. He finally prepared to take revenge today, but the result was even worse, and his retreat was cut off.

    Cao Ren understood and understood why Liu Zhe was confident. There were not many defenders above. It turned out that Liu Zhe had known about it for a long time.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
