    The scout quickly delivered Wei Yan's letter to Liu Cong. Liu Cong read the letter carefully, thought about it, nodded, and immediately ordered the army to camp on the spot.

    "My lord, it's still early. We are not far from Lingling. We will definitely be able to reach Lingling before dark. Why do we have to camp now?" Huang Zhong asked puzzledly.

    "Of course I am camping here to capture Lingling in one fell swoop!" Liu Cong said with a smile.

    "Capture Lingling in one fell swoop?" Huang Zhong became even more confused.

    "Wen Chang thought of a clever idea and asked us to cooperate. Han Sheng, please take a look!" Liu Cong handed Wei Yan's letter over.

    Huang Zhong looked at it carefully. Although he nodded, there was still doubt on his face.

    "Han Sheng still has doubts?"

    "My lord, Chief Wen's plan is very clever, but will Liu Du be fooled? His son Liu Xian is both wise and brave!"

    "If anyone else implements this plan, Liu Du will definitely not be fooled, but if Wen Chang implements it, it will definitely succeed!" Liu Cong seemed very confident.

    "Why is this?"

    "Because they don't know how powerful the essay is!"

    Wei Yan was a very famous general during the Three Kingdoms period. In terms of his ability to command troops, except for Guan Yu, none of the Five Tigers of Shu Han could compare with him.  But at this time in Jingnan, he was indeed a nobody.

    After the army camped, Liu Cong ordered the soldiers to bury pots and cook rice immediately. After eating, they began to sleep until dark.

    Lingling City, the prefect¡¯s mansion.

    The prefect Liu Du was sitting in the main seat, and on the left and right sides were kneeling civil and military officials from Lingling.

    At this moment, a scout hurried in.

    "Reporting to your lord, Liu Cong has led three thousand Han troops and has set up twenty-five camps on the bank of the Xiang River fifty miles away from Lingling City. They are currently camping."

    ¡°We¡¯ll investigate again and report again!¡±

    "No!"

    Just as this scout left, another scout ran in.

    "Report to your lord, Wei Yan is drinking in the military camp outside the city, and"

    "What else are you doing?"

    "He also scolded the Lord and General Xing, saying that they are shrinking they are only qualified to be women"

    "I'm so angry!" When Xing Daorong heard this, he overturned the table in front of him and became furious. "Sir, I must leave the city. If you don't mobilize your troops, I will go with three hundred soldiers to fight.  Even if I risk my life, I will take Wei Yan¡¯s head to drink with!¡±

    "General Xing, don't be impatient!" Liu Du's face was also very ugly. This Wei Yan was too arrogant. If he didn't give him some advice, it would definitely affect the morale of the army. However, he didn't have many ideas and wanted to hear his son's opinion. "Xian  Son, what do you mean?"

    "Father, now is a good opportunity!" Liu Xian stood up, "Wei Yan is so arrogant because he has Liu Cong's army behind him, but how did he know that Liu Cong is just a playboy and can't lead an army at all?  During the battle, we actually camped fifty miles away. At the second watch tonight, General Xing and I each led a team of soldiers and horses, quietly left the city, and then attacked from both sides, defeating Wei Yan's two thousand soldiers and horses. By then, Liu Cong's remaining three thousand soldiers  Soldiers and horses, don¡¯t talk about attacking the city again, I¡¯m afraid they¡¯ll just have to run away with their tail between their legs in despair!¡±

    "Okay! What my son said makes sense!" Liu Du was very excited when he heard it and made a decision immediately, "Xing Daorong and Liu Xian, I ordered you two to lead 1,500 troops each. Tonight, make food at the first watch, and go out of the city to rob the camp at the second watch.  The enemy troops outside the city were defeated!"

    Most of the county soldiers in this era were half full, so if they wanted to rob the camp, they had to eat extra food.

    "No!" Liu Xian and Xing Daorong responded loudly.

    "Jiang Wan, you are setting up a banquet in the city to celebrate the success of the two generals!"

    "No!"

    Jiang Wan was the chief historian of Lingling, but he did not have any real power because he had studied at Lumen Academy of Pang Degong, so he had some reputation. In addition, he was from Lingling, so he was appointed as the chief historian by Liu Duzheng.

    But Liu Du only used Jiang Wan to decorate his appearance and had no intention of using him.

    After Jiang Wan left the prefect¡¯s residence, he returned directly to his residence and immediately sent someone to find his cousin Liu Min.

    Liu Min is a centurion who is on duty at the city gate.

    "Cousin, why did you come to me?"

    "Of course it's the future I'm waiting for!"

    "What's the future for me?"

    "Tonight, Lingling is going to change, and it won't be long before the entire four counties of Jingnan are going to change too."

    "Could it be that the change of weather is because of the few soldiers outside the city? Cousin, please explain clearly what is going on." The enemy attackedLingling is true, but it only has two thousand soldiers and horses!

    "Cousin, if Xing Daorong and Liu Xian are going out of the city to rob the camp tonight, they will definitely fall into Wei Yan's plan. Once these three thousand soldiers and horses are defeated, what will Lingling be used to defend!" Jiang Wan told what happened in the prefect's mansion.

    "Cousin, why didn't you remind me?" Although Liu Min was only a centurion, he was wise and brave, and he immediately figured out the reason.

    "Liu Du is an ambitious man who has no ability as a prince, but wants to separatist rule, which will not lead to good results. Wei Yan is under the command of Master Zhou Mu, and we are ministers of Jingzhou. How can I help Liu Du."

    "Lord Zhou Mu?" Liu Min was a little confused, "Cousin, who are you talking about Lord Zhou Mu?"

    "That's the second young master!"

    "Second Young Master Liu Cong, he" Liu Min looked very disdainful when he heard Liu Cong, "Isn't he just a loser? He gave up Jingzhou's great foundation to Cao Cao and failed to live up to the hard work of Xianzhou Mu!"

    "No! No one saw him clearly!" Jiang Wan shook his head, "Even Mr. Pang Degong, Mr. Shui Jing and others saw him wrongly. He is the real hero in troubled times. Take a look at this letter!"

    Liu Min took the letter Jiang Wan handed him, "It was written by Ma Jichang to my cousin!"

    "Yes!" Jiang Wan had received Ma Liang's letter a long time ago. He originally wanted to go to Xiangyang City to have a look like Liu Ba, Liao Li, Pang Tong and others, but then he changed his mind and thought, if Liu Cong is really as Ma Liang said,  , then he will definitely come to capture the four counties of Jingnan. It is better for him to stay in Lingling.

    His lifelong ambition is to be a county guard and do something for the people, and Lingling is his hometown, so it couldn't be better.

    Now Liu Cong sent Wei Yan to attack Lingling to convince him that everything Ma Liang said was true. Moreover, Jiang Wan knew Wei Yan better than Liu Du and others. Although he had no reputation, he was definitely a good general.  Like Xing Daorong, he only has the courage of an ordinary man.

    "This" After Liu Min read the letter written by Ma Liang to Jiang Wan, he felt that his whole thinking had stopped. Is this still the second son that people call him?  Everything he has done is simply impossible for ordinary people to accomplish. He escaped from Fancheng, killed the tiger and leopard cavalry, borrowed troops from Yicheng, and outsmarted Shang Yong. All of this is incredible, but more importantly, what follows  The timing of seizing Nanjun and Xiangyang was so accurate. The Battle of Chibi was commanded by Zhou Yu, but Liu Cong seemed to be the real strategist, manipulating all the great talents such as Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang!  "Is this true?"
