Lu Bu's army was lined up outside Xiling City, with military formations like mountains, flags like clouds, war drums were shaking the earth, and shouts were shaking the earth. Before the battle could be fought, Liu Biao's army in the city was already frightened.

Wen Chou rode his horse to the city with a big sword and shouted loudly: "I am the general Wen Chou, a rat from Jingzhou. Who dares to fight to the death with me?" The huge roar was like a tiger's roar and thunder. Cai Mao and others were frightened when they saw the generals coming to see that they were burly and majestic as if they were as fierce as a bear, so they couldn't help but be frightened, so they dared not to fight. Wen Chou shouted over and over under the city, but Cai Mao and others just hid and did not go out to fight. Liu Biao's officers and soldiers saw that their generals were afraid to fight from Cai Mao, and their morale was very low.

At this time, a burly and handsome general with a handsome face and bearded headed up to the city gate tower with a big sword and rushed straight to Cai Mao, clasping his fists and saying, "Grandmaster, the last general is willing to fight!"

Cai Mao looked at it and saw that Wei Yan was responsible for guarding the North City Gate. He immediately said angrily: "This Governor's military order, you are responsible for guarding the North City Gate, how dare you leave your post without permission? If the North Gate is in a loss, can you afford it?"

Wei Yan said, "There is no soldier outside the North Gate, why worry?" Then he clasped his fists and said, "If the enemy challenged us, if we were afraid to fight, our morale would inevitably be severely damaged, which would be a great disadvantage for defending Xiling!"

Cai Mao pointed to Wen Chou, who was riding a horse and stooping to challenge him, and said angrily: "Do you know who this person is?" Wei Yan glanced at it, didn't recognize him, and shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Cai Mao snorted and said sarcastically: "You don't know why you dare to fight. Tell you, this person is a famous Hebei general Wen Chou, a rare general in the world! This person is brave and powerful, and you can't deal with it!"

Wei Yan was not afraid and said proudly: "The last general is willing to fight Wen Chou. If he cannot win, he will be willing to be the military law!"

Cai Mao was furious and shouted: "It's fine if you want to die, but I can't shake the morale of the entire army because of this! Don't be confused here, go back to the north gate quickly!"

Wei Yan was very angry and wanted to slash the timid guy with one knife, but he didn't do that after all. He snorted and rushed down the city wall. Cai Mao was angry, snorted and cursed: "It's simply unreasonable! He dared to challenge Wen Chou! It's clear that he wanted to die!"

Wei Yan ran back to his own soldiers, turned his head and looked at the city gate tower, and couldn't help but curse: "My lord is all about these timid guys. I think Jingzhou will change its owner in no time!" After that, he rode the horse and ran towards the north city gate.

Wen Chou cursed again and again, and a huge and unpleasant voice echoed over the Xiling Mountains. He greeted Cai Mao and even the women of Liu Biao's family, their parents and ancestors. Liu Biao's officers and soldiers were very ashamed, and many officers and soldiers couldn't help but want to go to war. Cai Mao himself, letting him beat the wind and rain, remained unmoved. Facing Wen Chou's extremely insulting words, he seemed to have not heard it. It was really amazing to cultivate his skills!

Seeing that Wen Chou had insulted for a long time, Ai Lang recalled Wen Chou. Wen Chou was very upset and cursed: "These Liu Biao soldiers were all as timid as mice, all of them were cowards who had no hands!"

Ailang smiled and said, "Everyone has their heads shrank in their crotch. There is nothing to worry about for such an army." Then he raised the Fang Tian Hua Ji high and shouted, "Bang the drum to attack the city!"

Dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong...! The huge war drums sounded one after another, and the catapult cart first launched an attack. The huge stones roared towards the city wall, making a crackling sound! Then thousands of attacking troops pushed various siege equipment and launched a fierce attack on the East City Gate. At the same time, thousands of other troops advanced to the south gate and launched a fierce attack on Xiling. For a moment, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the city of Xiling seemed to be trapped in the storm.

...

The siege continued until the evening, when Lu Bu's army stopped attacking and returned to the camp. The battle of the day returned to peace.

Cai Mao returned to the lobby of the capital surrounded by everyone. Cai Zhong said with lingering fear: "Today is only the first day they attacked the city, and they almost broke through the defense line by them. It is really unbelievable!" Everyone was also worried. Wei Yan smiled gloatingly and said: "Today is only the first day, and we almost stopped it! If we can't think of a way to deal with it, the city will not be able to defend for a few days." Everyone couldn't help but worry, and Cai He hurriedly looked at Cai.

Mao clasped his fists and said, "Grandmaster, hurry up and ask for help from the lord!" Cai Mao couldn't help but feel moved. Wei Yan said sarcastically, "If our 80,000 army cannot defend the city, I am afraid that I can't convey it to the lord, right?" Cai Mao couldn't help but feel that what Wei Yan said made sense, and hesitated. Cai Zhong rushed to Wei Yan angrily and said, "Wei Yan, what does your sarcastic sarcasm mean?" Cai Mao then reacted and looked at Wei Yan unhappily.

Wei Yan smiled and said, "I don't have the sarcasm to you. Lieutenant General Cai, you are too careful. Although what I said is not good, it is all the truth. Am I wrong?" Cai Zhong and Cai Mao were speechless. Cai Mao snorted and said, "If you don't have a clever plan, you won't speak. This Grand Governor doesn't need you to remind me."

Wei Yan smiled and said, "The Grand Commander is wise and wise, so naturally he doesn't need a reminder from the General. But the General happened to think of a plan that should be able to defeat the enemy. I wonder if the General Manager is willing to listen?"

Cai Mao and the generals felt their eyes lit up when they heard this. Cai Mao hurriedly said, "What are your tricks? Tell me quickly!"

Wei Yan didn't take a good look. After hearing this, he immediately clasped his fists and said, "In today's battle, the enemy's verbal battles in front of the formation, but our army could not hide..." Cai Mao's face suddenly collapsed and he shouted unhappily: "Wei Yan, I want you to tell me the plan, what are you doing?"

"The Grand Commander is not impatient, please listen to the last general." Cai Mao listened patiently. "Our army can't hide, so naturally the enemy thinks we are afraid to fight. After that, the enemy attacked the city in large numbers, and our army was quite difficult to resist. In this case, the enemy will inevitably have the idea of ​​despising our army, and they will never think that our army will have the courage to take the initiative..."

Everyone present was considered a long-standing general. When they heard this, they all understood. Cai Mao frowned and asked, "Do you want this Grand Commander to send troops to attack the enemy camp?"

"That's true. The enemy will not be on guard tonight. Our army will suddenly come and defeat the enemy in one battle! Don't miss the opportunity and never come again. Please make sure the Grand Governor decide!"

Everyone's eyes gathered on Cai Mao to see how he made a decision. Cai Mao couldn't help but stand up and pace back and forth. He felt that Wei Yan's plan was indeed a clever plan. He didn't expect to attack sneakily, so the enemy naturally could not imagine it. The raid tonight was very likely to succeed. However, although Cai Mao thought so, he was still a little worried, afraid of something. He paced back and forth, hesitated for a while, and finally stopped and said resolutely: "Okay! Just do this, attack and attack the enemy camp tonight!" Wei Yan saw that Cai Mao finally agreed, and couldn't help but smile, thinking that Cai Mao was not too bad either.

In the middle of the night, Cai Mao ordered Cai Zhong and Cai He to defend the city, and he himself led Wei Yan to lead 40,000 troops to secretly leave the city from the west gate. With the protection of the heavy night, he bypassed the city and headed towards the Lu Bu army camp. Not long after, the army approached the Lu Bu army camp. Cai Mao looked into the Lu Bu army camp, and saw that the light was dim and silent, with two soldiers standing by the gate, and the entire camp was obviously unprepared.

Wei Yan smiled proudly, feeling that Lu Bu was not worth mentioning, and Jia Xu, who was known for his wisdom, was defeated by him this time.

Cai Mao drew out his sword, waved forward suddenly, and shouted: "Attack!"

The 40,000 army immediately let out a huge shout and rushed towards the enemy camp. The two sentries guarding the door were startled and quickly turned around and ran away.

Cai Mao's army broke through the camp gate in one fell swoop, and then the troops spread into the camp and shouted and broke into the camp tent. Cai Mao personally led the army to rush into the tent. Cai Mao shouted excitedly: "Lu Bu, you have fallen into the hands of me, Cai Mao! Get up quickly, I will spare you!" At this time, the torches in the hands of the officers and soldiers illuminated the tent. Everyone saw that Lu Bu was actually leaning against a big straw man on his position. As for Lu Bu, he didn't know where to go. Cai Mao felt strange and couldn't help but run to the straw man. He saw a white cloth hanging on the straw man, and the white cloth was tilted: Cai Mao, you are in trouble!

Cai Mao couldn't help but widen his eyes and shouted anxiously: "No! No!..." However, before he finished speaking, a huge sound of killing suddenly came from outside. Cai Mao was shocked and rushed out of the tent quickly. He suddenly saw that the originally dark camp was brightly lit at this moment, and countless torches shone into the entire camp in the daytime! A large army, led by the powerful general Wen Chou, came from the left, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, killing Cai Mao's army rolling around the ground and fleeing; another army, led by the powerful general Dian Wei, rushed from the right, as if entering a nobody, and the person was invincible. Cai Mao's army was in chaos.

Cai Mao quickly turned over and shouted, "Retreat! Retreat!" Cai Mao's soldiers were unwilling to fight and rushed out of the camp, trampling on each other and countless people died.

Cai Mao and the others had just escaped from the camp, and only heard the sound of horse hooves roaring and deafening. Everyone couldn't help but feel a stern, stopped, looked around, and under the reflection of the moonlight, they saw a black wave sweeping from the north. Everyone was extremely panicked, and the officers and soldiers shouted in surprise and fled, but no one cared about Cai Mao's orders. The scene was in chaos. In fact, Cai Mao didn't care about his troops and hurriedly urged his mount to escape to the city.

After a while, the cavalry wave swept through the night, like a swelling wheat field, and the chaos of Cai Mao's officers and soldiers fell under the iron hoof blade of Lu Bu's army.
