Cao Ren immediately ordered: "Attack!"

"Cao Ren!" Liu Zhe shouted on the city wall, "Why are you not afraid of being stolen at home when you are here?"

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

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

During the period when Chang'an was holding on, as long as he joined forces 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 need to be sweet talk. Today I must conquer Tongguan and capture you alive."

However, Cao Ren felt strange. His subordinates had already begun to slowly head towards Tongguan, but there were not many defenders on the city wall, including two or three kittens.

Cao Ren thought that Liu Zhe was ambushing them behind the battlements, and only suddenly appeared after his soldiers approached.

However, things were not as Cao Ren thought. His soldiers were about to advance to the bottom of the city wall, and the number of defenders on it still did not increase. The attacks on his soldiers on the city wall were sparse and unseasonable.

Too strange, there must be a conspiracy.

Cao Ren was determined and thought about this, and while passing the orders, he asked his subordinates to be careful.

However, when his soldiers advanced under the city wall and began to build a ladder, the number of defenders on the city wall still did not increase.

What exactly did Liu Zhe want to do? Cao Ren was uneasy, it was so abnormal.

Generally speaking, when conducting a defensive battle in the city, the defending side will kill the enemy to the greatest extent when the enemy attacks, and try not to allow the enemy to climb 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 makes Cao Ren very surprised, and he is also very worried, worried about Liu Zhe's conspiracy.

Although Cao Ren thought that Liu Zhe would not defend the city, he would not be so idiot? Given Cao Ren's understanding of Liu Zhe, he believed that Liu Zhe had absolutely some conspiracies waiting for him.

"General, what should I do next?"

Cao Ren found something was wrong, and his subordinates also found something was wrong. He went to the siege team to test, and only about ten people died now. It was so strange.

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

At this point, he had to bite the bullet and go to bed.

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

"What's up?"

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

"Report to the General."

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

"What?" Cao Ren was shocked when he heard this. 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 eastern gate that guards Chang'an.

From the map, Chang'an, Weinan, Linjin and Tongguan are connected into a y-shaped figure. Chang'an is the point below the y-shaped figure, Weinan is the point in the middle, and Linjin and Tongguan are the two points above the y-shaped figure.

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

Because of Cao Cao's order, Cao Ren gave up many defensive strongholds, but he did not give up in Weinan. Instead, he concentrated some of the troops in Huayin, Huaxian, and further strengthened Weinan's defense.

So when Cao Ren heard that Weinan was lost, his first reaction was that he did not believe that Weinan had at least 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the county soldiers, at least 30,000. Moreover, because of the important position of Weinan, Cao Ren put a lot of effort into it, including fortifications and defensive tools. Cao Ren felt that even if 30,000 pigs were defending Weinan, it would take several days to capture the enemy if he wanted to attack.

Weinan is very important for Cao Ren. If he keeps Weinan, he can deal with Liu Zhe in Tongguan with peace of mind. Once he loses, he can quickly pass Weinan and retreat back to Chang'an.

Now that Weinan has been cut off, Cao Ren is surrounded by Liu Zhejun.

"What the hell is going on?" Cao Ren jumped off his horse, grabbed the spy's clothes, and asked anxiously.

"It was a sneak attack. Liu Zhejun sent spies to attack Weinan. Li Ziwei, who was guarding the city, was shot to death as soon as he showed up. We could not resist the impact of Liu Zhejun and finally dispersed." The spy stuttered and told Cao Ren about the general situation.

"Damn it, damn Liu Zhe." Cao Ren's eyes turned red with anger. He was a sneak attack again. What a fuck, is there nothing else except sneak attack?

Cao Ren hated Liu Zhe's sneak attacks a few days ago, causing him to suffer heavy losses. Today he finally prepared to take revenge, but the result was even worse, and his back was cut off.
