After the victory of Jiameng Pass, the Han army did not make any rest and went all out to march into Shuzhong, under normal circumstances, such a continuous battle is a taboo for soldiers, but first, the Han army has gone through a break this time, with the help of the third-rate strategy, it is not too consuming, and the morale is flourishing at this time, and secondly, the main force of the Cao army has been under the personal leadership of Cao Cao to reinforce Jingxiang and go to Shuzhong, which is undoubtedly empty, such an opportunity Zhang Hu will never let go, not to mention that at this time he still has a trump card in his hand, that is, the "dragon tooth" Rescued the original Yizhou assassin Liu Zhang Liu Jiyu! With Liu Yi's help to get out of the cage, Liu Zhang's gratitude in his heart can be imagined, so he did not shy away from the hardships and dangers, and accompanied the Tian'er people from Jingxiang to the Tiger Prison Pass and went straight to Hanzhong. In the face of Xiongguan, his influence is not too huge, but once the Han army breaks through the Sword Pavilion again, this person's role is enough to be worth 100,000 troops!

Before Hanzhong Yanzhou, at this time Shuzhong Jingxiang is one of the components of the overall battle situation, the two complement each other, Jingxiang place due to Cao Cao's personal reinforcements fell into a temporary stalemate in Shuzhong There is a good opportunity in Shuzhong The strategy of the Han army will naturally be adjusted, what Zhang Hu has to do is to seize the opportunity in front of him to attack the land of Yizhou as soon as possible, and now the faster he is now, the more beneficial the impact on the Jingxiang battle situation, especially in the morale of the Cao army at this time is undoubtedly fatal.

Cao Cao, who was in Xiangyang City, had received the news of the loss of Jiameng Pass a day ago, at that moment he was extremely calm after a hundred battles, and he also had a feeling of decadence, this sudden situation completely disrupted his military deployment, if it was said that although Cao Jun was at a disadvantage when he led the army in Shu to fight a decisive battle with the Han army, Cao Cao still had two or three points of certainty in his heart, and now this grasp is probably going to drop to less than one point, and with Liu Yi's coming, it will shrink for it.

Since the end of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao raised troops to fight for thieves, and it can be said that the road has been smooth, and he has gathered countless talents and subordinates, bent on sweeping the world and establishing an immortal reputation, but unfortunately everything else can be calculated by him, but only Liu Yi has been steadily suppressing him, and the fight between the two seems that Cao Cao has not been cheap from the beginning, and the two sides have tied in Yanzhou for the first time in Xuzhou, and Liu Yi has gained the upper hand since then. On weekdays, Cao Cao and his ministers must have analyzed and studied this biggest opponent, and the final result was that the gap between the two was actually outside the military.

Looking at Liu Yizhi's use of people and soldiers are all the top first-class in the late Han Dynasty, Gongsun Zhan, Lu Bu, and Yuan Shao galloped in his hands one by one, but from Cao Cao's point of view, he is not lost to his opponent in these aspects, and the first two confrontations between the two heroes are also proof! Fighting the army and fighting the army, he can be equal to it! But to talk about those rare but extremely practical ideas, as well as all kinds of novel techniques and talents in the construction of territories, he had to be willing to give up. And these are also one of the biggest capitals in the world to dominate the world, and Cao Cao feels very deeply about this.

At that time, the wealth of Youzhou was the best in the world, and it was ahead of the late Han Dynasty in all fields of agriculture, commerce, science and technology, Cao Cao could not imagine where these wonderful ideas in Liu Yi's mind came from, but he could not help but admit that the effect of these ideas when they were used in practice was decisive, and as his territory continued to expand, the Yan army had more and more advantages in the face of all the princes, which was especially evident after the two-year strategy of Yan Land, during which Liu Yi showed a strong ability to endure, Even sat back and watched Cao Jun take the land of Jingzhou and Yizhou one after another and did not move, at that time, Cao Jun's momentum rose sharply, and there was a faint tendency to fight against Liu Yi in the north, but both Cao Cao and Liu Yi knew that this was only a superficial phenomenon, and it was difficult for Cao Jun to continue.

The attack on Hanzhong was a surprise move from a military point of view, and Cao Cao even fought continuously despite the fatigue of his soldiers, hoping to use the unpredictable changes of his soldiers to achieve victory on the battlefield against the Yan army to make up for the gap in overall strength between the two sides. But from that moment on, Cao Cao actually lost the confidence to hold on with Liu Yi in his heart, he knew that the development of both sides was difficult to surpass Yandi's achievements no matter what, this comparison of advantages and disadvantages could hardly be changed, but the strength and weakness of the military family was not so obvious, and it was his biggest opportunity.

It is inevitable that the Yan army will start to counterattack, and Cao Cao has been prepared for the worst, but the strength of Liu Yi's counterattack launched after two years of recuperation still exceeds Cao Cao's estimate, and it is only two years in the frontal battlefield The Yan army already has a big advantage over the Cao army, whether this advantage is because of the physique or the equipment. Even the tactics of holding on to the fortified city that had been tried and tested in the past could not stop the footsteps of the Yan army, and the Xiongcheng such as Leping and Lu Guo did not last for a month, and the most devastating thing for him was undoubtedly the defeat of Hanzhong.

Cao Cao and Liu Yi are the most popular art of war in the late Han Dynasty, the contest between these two people is more comprehensive than whose preparation is more comprehensive, whose details are handled the best, here Cao Jun can not be said to be fine, but compared to the enemy army is still a step behind, Wei Yan went to the Meridian Valley to attack Micang Mountain before the war was not expected by Cao Jun, this divine soldier fell from heaven on Cao Cao's soft underbelly, and the situation in Hanzhong was reversed overnight, and the depression in his heart when he ordered the withdrawal of the army can be imagined, For a moment, he even wanted to fight Zhang Hu's subordinates here, but the composure formed on the battle array for many years still prevented him from making this impulsive choice.

As soon as Hanzhong retreated, Qingzhou and Yanzhou were lost, Liu Bei's army to help was also repelled by Liu Yi himself, this decisive battle Cao Cao had failed, but the offensive of the Yan army did not stop because of this, like the waves of the sea. Speaking of the fatigue and losses of the war, the Yan army was by no means under the Cao army in Jingxiangshu at that time, but the long-lasting combat ability they showed was amazing, a series of continuous blows made the Cao army's disadvantage continue to expand, Nanyang Yiyang among the nine counties of Jingzhou fell one after another, and only Jiangling and Xiangyang were left in his five counties in Jiangbei and were still in turmoil! What's even more troublesome is the other party's ability to fight in battle, with Liu Yi ascending the throne and saying that the main force of the emperor and Han army continues to join Jingxiang, the other party's purpose of completing the battle has been extremely obvious.

Led the army to Jingxiang even if Cao Cao thought about it for a long time to make a decision is actually the pressure of the situation, on the way here he reported a broken decision, this time did not make the last mistake, even Gao Shun Pei Yuanshao's people are also in his calculations, at this time although the White Tiger Battalion of the Liaodong Army has been reinforced by Fan Chou and the Zhou battalion, but the situation of the battle has not opened, Jiangling and Xiangyang have repelled the strong attack of the Han army after Cao Cao's arrival, At present, looking at the entire Jingxiang battle situation, the Han army, which was in an advantageous position, did not achieve a decisive advantage, which was not easy for the Cao army, which had just experienced a major defeat, and also made Cao Cao see hope in adversity.

Most of Cao's army came by water, and it was the soldiers led by Xiahoudun who repelled the attack of the Han army at the critical moment, and the head of Xiangyang City played the banner of Cao Cao, but his people were not in the city at that time. After experiencing the Battle of Qingyan and the defeat of Hanzhong, and analyzing the battle situation in Jingxiang, Cao Cao knew that it was extremely difficult for him to defeat the Han army here with the current comparison of the strength of the two sides, not to mention that the opponent's combat strength was extremely strong, that is, Liu Yi was not in Zhao Yun, Guo Jiajia, and Jia Xu's combination was also extremely sharp, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Hua Xiong, Wen Chou and the Han army of Koyi who rushed to the scene can be described as shining stars.

It is difficult to win by one's own strength alone, then you must seek the help of reinforcements, and at this time only Jingnan Sun Ce is left to help Cao Cao, in the later stage of the battle of Yanzhou, Liu Bei personally led the army across the river to meet Cao's army, and the original plan was extremely subtle and almost successful, but a falcon flying feather, a battle destined to go down in history as a horse battle, but they were defeated, and then Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others although Lian Shi Qi plotted to get rid of the pursuit of the Yan army and retreated to Jiangdong safely, but it was inevitable that they suffered heavy losses, At this time, it was even more difficult to make a difference under the suppression of Ganning, Pang Tong, Xu Shu and others, so when he arrived at Jingxiang's first stop, Cao Cao arrived in Sun Ce's camp.

Cao Cao came here to be extremely secretive, and there were very few people in Sun Ce's army who knew about it, and Cao Cao left Sun Cejun's camp after about three hours. From his face, it was impossible to see what kind of agreement had been reached between the two, but it was considerable that Cao Jun's subsequent transfer and Zhou Yu's actions must have some kind of cooperation in Jingxiang. However, even if they gather the strength of the two armies, they have no advantage over the Shang Han army, although the Jiangdong naval army is strong, but if it is said that there is still a gap between them and Cao Jun in land warfare, not to mention that Cao Cao's purpose here has only been half achieved, although Xiaobawang has covered it well, but the jealousy of Liu Yi in his heart is difficult to hide, can he exert all his strength in such a mentality?

However, now Cao Cao has no time to think about this problem, he can only hope that Sun Cejun's performance can meet his expectations, otherwise he can only count on a miracle, but all his efforts have just stabilized the battle situation and seen a little hope, the loss of Jia Mengguan is like a super heavy punch to his chest, no matter how hard he tries, he can't compete with this lifelong enemy? It's not that he hasn't thought about the fall of Jia Meng Pass, and even prepared for it, but he never imagined that it would come so quickly, there is a world of difference between active retreat and passive retreat in terms of strategy, Jia Meng Pass is so lost, how much security can the Heavenly Sword Pavilion bring him? If you lose this level and lose the rest of the Cao army in Shu, how can you compete with the wolf-like Han army? At this time, Cao Cao had a sense of despair for the first time in his life!
