As soon as Micang Mountain was lost, the battle situation in Hanzhong was more turbulent, and the situation became more and more favorable to Cao's army, and Zhang Xiu's previous steady defense and Ma Chaosizhou's raid on the enemy army were all put into water in this battle, and this place fell into the hands of the other party, Cao Hong could lead the army at any time to attack the right flank and rear of the Yan army led by Zhang Hu at any time, in this situation, Zhang Zicai also had to take the initiative to shrink the defense, abandon the six horses and retreat to Yin County, which is only eighty miles away from Hanzhong City, which is the last barrier!

In this battle, Zhang Hu's planning can not be described as incomplete, Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao's two battles have greatly encouraged the morale of the Yan army and the Hanzhong army, this time he personally led the second battalion of Chang'an Sizhou 80,000 horses and Cao Cao's 200,000 troops to confront it head-on, making it difficult to make it difficult to advance an inch, which shows its ability to command the army. The loss of important land and the battle of Qingzhou failed to encircle and annihilate the crime of banning the general non-war, Qingzhou lies in the Cao army to take the lead and the cooperation and combat power gap between the two armies in the first war of Hanzhong is a hard wound that no one can make up, if you face others, Zicai still has a way to deal with it properly, but in the face of Cao Cao and his cadres, any weakness will be seized by the other party and severely attacked, and the situation in front of you is exactly like this.

Of course, Cao Hong only has 50,000 soldiers under his command, and there are 30,000 defenders under Yang Xiu, the defender of Micang Mountain, even if there is a relatively large gap in the combat strength between the two armies, the advantage of the terrain is enough to make up for it, Cao Zilian fought hard for ten days to take this place not only to Zhang Hu's expectations, but also to Cao Cao! In addition to the courage and good fighting of the Cao army, the main reason is the instability of the Hanzhong army and the incompetence of the generals. Zhang Hu persuaded Zhang Lu to sacrifice Hanzhong, which still has a certain impact on the hearts of the people in this place, especially in the army, compared to the Yan army of Hanzhong, the army is too strong, and no one in the army dares to guarantee that their status will not be adjusted, and their quality is far from that of the Yan army generals, and it is normal for people to be a little apprehensive for a while.

This kind of impact is not too big, with Zhang Huzhi's ability to give him a few months of stable time to eliminate all the hidden dangers, but the key is that once Cao Cao decided to attack Hanzhong, he will come non-stop, and even this little time will not be left for Zicai, if the battle is smooth, its harm is still difficult to reflect, but once the situation is at a disadvantage or it encounters strong pressure, it will become an anthill that destroys the causeway, and such a negative impact will be like a chain.

Knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can survive a hundred battles, knowing oneself and not knowing the other is half of the victory or defeat, the situation of Zhang Hu in the battle of Hanzhong is also quite bizarre, it can be said that he is half knowing himself and half knowing the other, the latter is very simple to understand, he and Yan Wang have a detailed study and understanding of the great enemy Cao Cao, but it is not possible to say that he can master it, and this person has a lot of good talents, each has a clever plan, so it is appropriate to know the other. As for the former, he knew the second battalion of the Yan army in Chang'an Sizhou well, and he was free to command and fight like an arm, but he only had an impression on the surface of the Hanzhong army and its generals and did not know much about it, so he would only arrange for them to stick to the danger and reduce the chance of a head-on confrontation with the Cao army, and also avoid the problem of cooperation between the two sides to the greatest extent, so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy.

Zhang Zicai's planning can not be described as inconsiderate, but also racking his brains painstakingly, in today's situation, in the eyes of anyone, such a response is the best policy, but don't forget that no matter how good the strategy and planning must be achieved through people, this link is not a mistake in planning but an unknown use of people, if it is in any place in Yandi, how can Zhang Hu make such a mistake? But this time he can't help it, and now it seems that the loss of Yonekura Mountain is enough to affect the overall situation.

Although it was not long after arriving in Hanzhong, Zhang Hu still knew its terrain very well, Mr. Zhuge said well, because the general does not know astronomy and does not know how to geography. This truth has long been repeatedly preached by Liu Yi in the army, before the war, as a general of the first army, he must have a clear understanding of the terrain of the battlefield, and field survey is the most effective means, but in many cases it is difficult to put it into practice, at this time, the Yan army's precise and fine sand table can help a lot. Liu Yi has long had the intention of taking Hanzhong in his heart, and the wolf's den of the wolf is also beneficial to the detailed terrain of Hanzhou, where the mountains and rivers are undulating, and Zhang Hu and Zhang Zi, who are the assassins of Sizhou, can be said to know it well.

In his opinion, if any part of the Yan army comes to guard the 20,000 horses and horses, it will be enough to reach several times the enemy, even if he doesn't use equipment to defend the advantages of the palace, he doesn't have to worry too much about it here, but at this time, it is 30,000 Han Chinese troops facing only 50,000 Cao troops It was defeated in ten days, and it was unexpected, Ren Zhang Hu was resourceful and calculating, although the combat power of the Hanzhong army was not as good as the Yan army, how could there be such a gap in the garrison battle, and Zhang Hu could be sure that the problem was the main general Yang Xiu, It can already be seen that this person led the defeated army straight to Hanzhong but did not come to join it, and it is important to know that in this battle of Hanzhong, Zhang Lu gave the command of the whole army.

Zicai's inference is not accurate, but it is only half right, Yang Xiu, the defender of Micang Mountain, was able to hold firmly and steadily under Cao Hong's full assault, but once he was disturbed by rumors, he lost his square inch, and the determination shown by the place under the mountain to take this place was unprecedented for him, and the offensive was fierce all day and night, so that he was under tremendous mental pressure all the time, and Cao Zilian was even more intimidating and bluffing, and finally made it difficult to support it under the combination of several things!

The incompetence of the main general is the main reason for the defeat of this battle, but there is another point that cannot be ignored, that is, the will of the soldiers in the war, Cao Jun is not afraid of death to go forward and follow, the arrogance of the battlefield makes the Han sergeants kick in their hearts, since the elite of the Han and Zhang coalition forces was captured by Liu Yi in a battle, many of the Hanzhong army at this time are newly recruited soldiers who have never been in the battle formation, coupled with the lack of strict systematic training of the Yan army, the tension of the first battle formation is inevitable! On the first day of the attack, Cao Hong was keenly aware of the opponent's weakness, so he arranged for his subordinates to strike continuously day and night at all costs, never giving the other party the slightest respite!

What is the most important thing to defend? A well-fortified city, well-equipped, well-stocked or treacherous terrain? These things are indispensable, but according to the words of Zhang Liao, the number one defensive general of the Yan Army, momentum and the will to die are the most critical points, Liu Yi and the generals are deeply convinced, no matter how strong the strength is, in the face of a group of unanimous dead soldiers, it is an extremely headache for the attacker, and it is precisely because of this that there will be a saying that the heart is to attack the city and attack the city is the bottom! The so-called attack is to disintegrate the firm belief and will of the defender, once it is broken here, no matter how strong the city is, it is even more so in the era of cold weapons, this sentence originally belonged to Ma Tan Ma Youchang in another time and space, but in this life was relayed in advance by Zhao Yun in Xiliang when the words of King Yan were relayed, and in this battle of Micang Mountain, Cao Hong's use of this place can be described as accurate.

The attack is so dangerous, no matter how elite the soldiers are, heavy casualties are inevitable, in the eyes of the Hanzhong army, those Cao troops are all like crazy, they don't care about their lives at all, no matter what kind of blow they receive, they are generally brave, and after gradually becoming familiar with the terrain during the attack, their adaptability is also agile and abnormal, the initial Hanzhong army can still resist with the position, but once it enters the short-handed combat between the two sides, the advantages of the Cao army will be fully exerted, Although many times the soldiers who desperately rushed to the position were inevitably wiped out by the whole army, but the fighting spirit of the last person shocked every Han sergeant, such an elite in the world is something they have never seen, day and night of continuous attacks slowly exhausted the will of the defenders, plus the commander first panicked unfavorable news came one after another, and the accumulation was a collapse in the end!

If Cao Cao attacked Hanzhong at the beginning of the attack was only to occupy the advantage of troops, this time the situation of Micang Mountain was already a crisis for the Yan army, the battle situation in front of Zhang Hu was very urgent, with Yang Xiu's previous experience, whether Dingjun Mountain could hold on to it has become a big question, the so-called Qiao woman is difficult to cook without rice, and it is difficult for Zhang Hu to divide troops to make effective reinforcements here under the pressure of Cao Cao's army. Yang Xiu must be killed, otherwise the morale of the army will collapse without a fight, Cao Cao is now standing still opposite him, he sees the weakness of his insufficient troops, if the Dingjun Mountain is broken again, the Yan army will have to retreat to Hanzhong, and then the Cao army will have more room to play! At this time, if Yan Yunjun is in hand, the situation will be different, and the hope for Zhang Liao at this moment is extremely strong!
