After Liu Pan received Cai Mao's reply, he wrote a letter again and made an appointment with Cai Mao.

Two days later.

Cai Mao took Zhang Yun, Wen Ping and an army of more than 30,000 people to line up outside the east gate of Chaoyang County.

Soon, Ji Ling received the news.

Immediately after, Ji Ling summoned everyone under his command and said, "Everyone, I have received news that the Jingzhou army has left the city, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Bu immediately said, "General Ji, isn't it just right for the Jingzhou army to go out of the city?" Let's see me defeat them in one fell swoop. ”

At this time, Yang Hong answered: "General Lu, don't worry, there must be something strange when the Jingzhou army suddenly leaves the city." ”

When Ji Ling heard this, he immediately asked, "Yang Changshi, in your opinion, why is this?" ”

Yang Hong thought for a moment and then replied: "General Ji, the sudden exit of the Jingzhou army from the city is probably due to an agreement with Zhang Xiu, in my opinion, we should withdraw to Huyang and then make plans." ”

As soon as he heard this, Lu Bu immediately continued: "Yang Changshi, our army is now in its prime, and fleeing like this may make the lord lose face!" ”

Ji Ling also hesitated when he heard this, because what Lu Bu said was right.

After a while, Ji Ling said: "I think so, our army and the Jingzhou army have a frontal battle, if it wins, it will just take advantage of the situation to attack Chaoyang County, if it is unfortunate to lose, it will not be too late for us to withdraw our troops back to Huyang." ”

Seeing that Ji Ling had made up his mind, Yang Hong couldn't say anything, after all, Ji Ling was the boss.

Subsequently, Ji Ling also ordered the army to go out of the city and line up.

When Cai Maojun and Ji Lingjun lined up head-on, Zhang Xiu also received the news.

Immediately after, Zhang Xiu immediately found Jia Xu and said to him: "Wenhe, the spies have come to report that Cai Mao and Ji Ling are lined up outside the city, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Jia Xu thought for a moment and then replied, "Lord, we should send troops to help. ”

"Oh? Why is that? ”

"Lord, Cai Mao's army must have relied on it when it suddenly left the city, and this reliance is likely to be the reinforcements sent by Liu Biao, I expect that Ji Ling will lose this battle, if our army is only a spectator, I am afraid that the Jingzhou army will take the main sword after defeating Ji Ling's department."

Zhang Xiu thought about it and immediately gathered soldiers and horses out of the camp.

At this time, in front of the battle formation of the Jingzhou army and the Ji Ling army, Lu Bu rode out and shouted towards the Jingzhou army: "I am Wuyuan Lu Bu, who dares to fight with me?" ”

Seeing Lu Bu calling the formation, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were both frightened, after all, Lu Bu's prestige was too loud.

As for Wen Ping, although he was not scared, he also knew that he was not Lu Bu's opponent, so he did not fight.

In this way, no one on the Jingzhou army answered.

Seeing that the Jingzhou army was so cowardly, Lu Bu immediately laughed and said, "I didn't expect that the soldiers in Jingzhou are all rats!" I think you should obediently sacrifice the city and tie Liu Biao to my lord! ”

When they heard this, the Jingzhou army dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, because no one dared to fight Lu Bu.

When Wen Ping saw the morale of the soldiers of the Jingzhou Army drop, he had no choice but to kill Lu Bu on his horse and shouted: "Lu Buxiu is going to be rampant!" Nanyang Wenpin is also here! ”

Seeing that someone had finally come out to fight, Lu Bu immediately rode up to meet him.

Soon, Wen Ping brandished a big sword and fought against Lu Bu.

After all, Wen Ping has first-class mid-level martial arts, so he can still make a few moves after fighting Lu Bu.

At this time, Zhang Xiu also led the army to the vicinity.

After Ji Ling saw that Zhang Xiujun also arrived at the battlefield, he immediately said to Yang Hong beside him: "Yang Changshi, that Zhang Xiujun really arrived with the army as you expected." ”

"General Ji, when General Lu defeats the enemy generals, then we can lead the army to cover up."

After hearing this, Ji Ling immediately turned his attention to Lu Bu and Wen Ping.

After Lu Bu and Wen Ping fought for fifty rounds, Lu Bu suddenly said: "Your martial arts are good, but how can the light of rice grains shine with the bright moon?" ”

As he spoke, Lu Bu brandished Fang Tian's halberd and began to use all his strength.

Facing Lu Bu, who had reached the super-first-class realm, Wenpin suddenly fell into a disadvantage.

Seeing that Wen was defeated in battle, Cai Mao did not order to send troops to attack.

At this time, Jia Xu suggested to Zhang Xiu that he should go to the rescue of Wenpin, in case Wenpin was beheaded by Lu Bu, then even if the Jingzhou army had a good plan, it would not be able to do its best.

After Zhang Xiu followed Jia Xu's advice, he immediately rushed to the battlefield and shouted: "General Wen hold on!" Zhang Xiu is here to help you! ”

Seeing that Wen Ping was about to be defeated and killed, Zhang Xiu finally arrived and fought with Wen Ping to fight Lu Bu.

Although Zhang Xiu, who is also a first-class mid-level, works together with Wenpin, Lu Bu still seems to be at ease.

When Ji Ling saw Zhang Xiu and Wen Ping fighting against Lu Bu, he was afraid that Lu Bu would lose, so he immediately ordered the whole army to charge.

Seeing Ji Lingjun rushing towards him, Cai Mao could only give the order to charge.

As for the Xiliang Army under Zhang Xiu's command, they could only stand still because Zhang Xiu was not there.

Wen Ping and Zhang Xiu saw Ji Lingjun charge, and the two of them quickly worked together to get rid of Lu Bu and then began to withdraw.

When Lu Bu saw that Wen Ping and Zhang Xiu were about to flee, he did not pursue them, because he was waiting for Ji Ling's army to come up.

As Lu Bu and Ji Ling's army converged, he immediately acted as an arrow to kill the Jingzhou army.

Soon, the Jingzhou army and Ji Lingjun were fully engaged.

At this time, Zhang Xiu, who returned to the front of the headquarters of the people and horses, immediately turned around and took the soldiers and horses to cover the flank of Ji Lingjun.

Seeing this, Ji Ling immediately sent Zhang Liao to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to block it.

For a time, the three armies began a fierce battle.

Because Zhang Xiu's army was blocked, they did not break through Ji Lingjun's flank defense.

And Ji Ling, Lu Bu and Wei Yue, who were on the frontal battlefield, took advantage of the victory to pursue and crush Cai Mao's army.

When Cai Mao saw Lu Bu and Ji Ling going straight to kill him, he suddenly couldn't hold on anymore.

At this time, Wen Ping finally rushed back and said to Cai Mao: "General Cai, Lu Bu is invincible, please quickly command the army to form a circle to resist the enemy." ”

After Cai Mao heard Wen Ping's words, although he had the heart to organize, the Jingzhou Army's infantry combat ability was really not flattering, and Cai Mao commanded for a long time and failed to line up the round formation.

Soon, the Jingzhou army was defeated by Lu Bu and Ji Ling.

Seeing this, Cai Mao hurriedly ordered Mingjin.

The Jingzhou army, which was already weak, suddenly became a rout after hearing the sound of gold.

Seeing this, Wen Ping regretted that he went to challenge Lu Bu, because if he didn't fight, he would definitely be able to block Ji Lingjun's attack with his command ability, but there was no regret medicine to take in the world, and Wen Ping could only cry out in vain.

At this time, Liu Panjun also successfully raided the camp of Ji Ling and burned the grain and grass in the camp.

Then, Liu Pan led 30,000 soldiers and horses straight to the battlefield.

When Liu Panjun raided Ji Ling's army from the rear, Ji Ling's rear army was also in turmoil, because these soldiers did not expect that there would be enemy troops in the rear.

When Ji Ling learned that an enemy army was coming from the rear, he immediately sent Lu Bu and Wei Yue back to block it, while he himself continued to put pressure on Cai Mao's army.

Besides, after Wen Ping saw Ji Ling transfer Lu Bu away, he immediately led his own soldiers to attack Ji Ling, which was a plan to capture the thief and capture the king.

When Ji Ling saw Wen Ping coming, he also immediately went up to fight.
