The most critical decisive battle in Hanzhong officially begins.

Even though Cao Cao had made up his mind to withdraw his troops.

But after seeing the main force of Liu Bei's army pressing down on him.

He also decisively ordered all his troops to turn around and fight back.

The brave generals of both armies also came out.

They all fought together in this narrow but cruel land.

Soaked in blood...

The sound of weapons clashing came straight down.

The endless roars are also as crazy as thunder.

Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Liu Feng, Wu Lan and other generals.

Regarding Cao Jun.

Xiahou Dun, Zhang He, Xu Huang, Cao Zhen, Gao Zuo, and Xiji each led their troops to fight.

The two sides fought from dawn to dusk.

Under the primitive wilderness is endless red.

The piles of corpses piled up on the mountains all illustrate the cruelty of this war.

A day of fierce fighting.

Both sides chose to call a truce.

However, Liu Bei's army had the upper hand in this battle.

Return to the temporary camp.

Large account room.

Even though Liu Bei, who had always been happy but never showed it on his face, couldn't help but have deep joy on his face at this moment.

He really needed to share this joy.

Probably because he has been fighting with Cao Jun for many years.

He also had dealings with Cao Cao for decades.

The two sides fought fiercely, at least dozens of battles.

He almost lost every battle without any victory.

Today's decisive battle is completely different.

Our side has the overall upper hand.

He also suppressed Cao Cao for the first time.

How can one not be happy with such joy?

"Xiao Nao, if our army continues to fight Cao Jun like this tomorrow, do you think it can be defeated in one battle?"

Although the smile in his heart did not diminish, Liu Bei had developed the habit of asking for advice at any time since Fa Zheng passed.

"My lord, judging from the current situation, although Cao Cao's soldiers are at the end of their strength, their burst of strength still shows the fighting power of elite soldiers."

"It is too difficult for our army to defeat Cao's army in a decisive battle."

"Looking at it rightly, why not come up with a strange strategy and severely damage Cao's army?"

"As long as Cao's army is not allowed to safely withdraw from the Qinling Mountains, after our army has completely stabilized the situation in Hanzhong, we will be able to station troops at any time to threaten Guanzhong."

"Now General Huang is already in formation to kill General Xia Houyuan, a relative of the Cao family."

"This man once marched to the right of Guanyou and enjoyed extremely high military power among the Qiang and Di tribes."

"But this man is dead, which will be of great benefit to our army in the next Northern Expedition."

After a lot of words ended.

Fazheng smiled broadly and analyzed in a low voice.

"I wonder if Xiaozhi has any clever ideas?"

After hearing this, Fazheng thought for a moment and then said: "My lord, now Zilong's troops have captured Qishan Fort and control the connection between Qishan Road and Longyou."

"It also cut off Cao Jun's attempt to assist the main force in withdrawing from Longyou."

"Then the main force of Cao's army wants to retreat safely to Guanzhong."

"It is inevitable that we can only retreat along Chencang Road."

At this point, he smiled again, and then said slightly: "The five roads in Hanzhong, Qishan Road, have been controlled by General Zilong, Tangluo Road, Baoxie Road, and even Ziwu Road further east.

Extremely steep and narrow.”

"It is not easy for a small group of troops to pass through, but marching for a large army is tantamount to seeking death!"

"The Chencang Road is wide and the terrain is relatively flat."

"This is also the only place where Cao Cao will retreat to Guanzhong."

"In that case, I also ask my lord to send people to Qishan Fort immediately, so that Zilong and his troops can march from the flank to Wudu to create chaos and increase pressure on Cao's army."

"If this is the case, Cao Jun's army will be confused!"

"Our army will seize the opportunity to attack fiercely while taking advantage of the victory, and we will definitely be able to severely damage the enemy's army."

The firm words were spoken one after another.

Liu Bei also immediately echoed.

"What Xiaozhi said is true!"

"Just act this way."

After hearing this strategy, Liu Bei's face became even more full of smiles.

Immediately, he immediately sent people to Qishan Fort.

Both parties rested for the night.

About the tragic battle during the day.

Of course Cao Cao is still vivid in his mind!

He was standing outside the camp, staring quietly into the distance, his thoughts unable to calm down for a long time.

"Today's Liu Bei is really full of wings, and he can't be the same as in the past!"

He couldn't help sighing.

He knows.

Now Liu Bei has become the climate.

They are no longer the vulnerable group he ravaged at will.

"How should we deal with tomorrow's war?"

Cao Cao was also doubtful for a while.

After seeing that our side was completely at a disadvantage today.

At this time, Cao Cao basically lost the confidence to continue fighting.

Just when he was thinking a lot.

But his adviser Liu Ye happened to come to pay him a visit.

"See you, Prime Minister."

"Oh, it's Ziyang. I wonder if there is anything else important if you come here late at night?"

Asking each other.

Liu Ye did not go around in circles at this moment, but directly asked: "Prime Minister, what do you think of today's battle situation?"

"If we continue to fight fiercely, is there any chance of winning?"

"What do you think Ziyang?"

In the dark night, Cao Cao asked with a calm expression on his face.

One word hits the ground.

Liu Ye pondered for a while and said: "Prime Minister, if we were to compete in terms of combat prowess, our soldiers are actually no less elite than the enemy."

"But the current situation is that our army has been fighting at Yangping Pass for a long time, and the soldiers have long been exhausted and are at the end of their war effort."

"In addition, the unfortunate death of General Xiahou has cast a shadow over the officers and soldiers of the army."

"As a result, the morale of the soldiers has dropped too much."

"This has just caused our army to be at a disadvantage in today's decisive battle."
