Thirty miles northeast of the old city of Hefei, the hills are staggered, the ridges depend on each other, although the terrain is not as dangerous as Bashu, but the ambush on both sides is not easy to be detected.
When Cao Wenzhao and Jia Fu led 20,000 horses and walked fifty or sixty miles, the scouts came to report quickly: "Report to the two generals, Xue Li has led the Han soldiers to the north to pursue the main force of our army.
At present, Hefei is empty, and according to the villain's eyesight, the defenders in the city are only a few thousand.
The four gates were closed, and only some of the soldiers and the people were repairing the city."
Using the news of Cao Cao's fraudulent death to lure the Han army to pursue, Guo Ziyi and Cao Ren cut off the Han army's back road, and Cao Wenzhao and Jia Fu killed a horse gun to attack Hefei, this series of serial plans is Cao Cao's established plan.
And Zhuge Liang has an insight into Cao Cao's plan, but Zhuge Liang, who is cautious and steady by nature, has different concepts from brave generals like Xue Rengui.
Zhuge Liang's character is stable, and he strives to be invincible, and he can not pursue a big victory, but he must avoid failure, and he must not take risks easily.
But Xue Rengui is different, as a representative of the brave fighting faction, Xue Rengui believes in seeking victory in danger, using troops quickly, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and biasing towards the tigers.
Even if there is a risk of failure, it is worth the risk as long as there is a possibility of success and a huge price to be gained.
In Xue Rengui's view, the risk is proportional to the benefit, and it is impossible to achieve an exciting victory if you want to be stable.
This is also the reason why Xue Rengui and Zhuge Liang have a disagreement, not that Xue Rengui did not see the possibility of Cao Cao's death, but that even if Cao Cao cheated to death to lure the enemy, he could also win the battle.
Since Zhuge Liang had insight into Cao Cao's plan, he transferred all the men and horses who stayed in Hefei into the city, faked the empty scene in the city, and tried to deceive Cao's army scouts and lure Cao Wenzhao into his plan. and sent Jiang Wei and Chen Zhi to lead 30,000 horses to choose the terrain to set up an ambush, just waiting for Cao Wenzhao and Jia Fu to throw themselves into the net.
"Dingdong Zhuge Liang's divine arithmetic attribute is activated, and under the superior intelligence, Cao Wenzhao, Jia Fu and all the subordinate generals are reduced by 3 points of intelligence" Cao Wenzhao was overjoyed after receiving the scout's report, and laughed at the horse: "Haha, Your Majesty is really clever, Xue Li, a martial artist, and Zhuge Villager have been transferred away from the mountain, I will turn the horse's head and kill Hefei at a high speed."
Jia Fu is no longer suspicious of this situation, to measure it from another position, the Han army has increased to 100,000 people, facing the dead emperor, the Cao army who retreated in panic has no reason not to pursue Even if there are defenders in Hefei City, there are very few to think about, so there is no need to worry "Kill" Under the leadership of Cao Wenzhao and Jia Fu, this mixed team composed of 7,000 tiger and leopard cavalry, 5,000 light cavalry, and 8,000 infantry immediately turned their spearhead and killed a horse gun towards Hefei City under the cover of evening dusk.
Jiang Wei, as a commander-in-chief general with both wisdom and bravery, had similarities with Sun Wu when choosing the ambush location, giving up the location where the terrain was dangerous but easy to arouse the vigilance of the enemy, and instead chose a relatively dangerous terrain but would not let the enemy army set up an ambush in a cautious location.
In the middle of the night, Cao Wenzhao and Jia Fu led the army to kill, only to hear a drum, with Jiang Wei's spear, the arrows on both sides of the valley were like flying locusts, and the rolling stones fell from the sky like a landslide, and the Cao soldiers who smashed turned over on their backs.
Cao Wenzhao, who opened the road first, was caught off guard, and was hit by a rolling stone like a grinding disc from the sky, hit his helmet, and spat blood from his mouth when he landed, and fell off the horse.
The tiger and leopard rider who followed was frightened, scurrying around, trampling the unconscious Cao Wenzhao to the ground under the trampling of each other.
The valley was dark, Cao's army was suddenly attacked, and the formation was in chaos, people turned on their backs, and countless people died.
Jia Fu learned that Cao Wenzhao had died in battle in the middle of the team, and he didn't care about looking for the body, so he immediately gathered the defeated soldiers and broke through the siege with all his might: "Don't panic, the front army becomes the rear army, the rear army becomes the front army, follow me out of this hill."
Seeing Jia Fu leading Cao's soldiers to break through, Chen Zhi, who had set up an ambush here, rushed down the hillside to intercept: "The soldiers are not going to let Cao Jun go, and no piece of armor will be left to kill him."
Jia Fu fought and walked, clashing back and forth several times to rescue the trapped Cao Jun, seeing Chen Zhi chasing after him, he couldn't help but rush to the crown angrily, flying under his crotch to climb the snow, and waving the silver moon plate dragon halberd in his hand towards Chen Zhi to rush over: "Han will be rampant, eat my halberd" Seeing that Jia Fu was menacing, and no one could stop him in front of the horse, Chen knew that he was invincible, so he turned the horse and left.
Jia Fu galloped his horse in hot pursuit, picked up the meteor hammer from the saddle, and threw it at Chen Zhi with all his strength.
I only heard the crisp sound of the "bell", which was in the middle of the waist, and when I landed, my limbs were weak, and I fell off the horse.
Jia Fu caught up with his horse, stabbed Chen Dao with a halberd, and leaned over like an ape on the horse to pick up his head, before he retreated.
While directing Cao Bing to retreat, he personally reared the palace, blocking the pursuit of the Han army like an iron gate and protecting Cao Bing's retreat to the north.
Shooting Cao Cao's nephew Cao Wenzhao, who was also the commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry, certainly made Jiang Wei cheer excitedly, but Chen Zhi's death under Jia Fu's halberd also made Jiang Wei sad and sad.
It's just that "the hound will eventually die on the mountain, and the general will inevitably die before the battle", and death on the battlefield will come to the head at any time, and today is Chen to tomorrow may be himself.
Therefore, Jiang Wei didn't care about grief, and ordered someone to clean up Chen Zhi's body and send it back to fat, and he led the victorious army to march to the northwest and go to the aid of Xue Rengui and Long Ji.
The battle in the north of Hefei was still going on, and although Xue Rengui, who had been bandaged to stop the bleeding, could no longer wield his halberd to fight for the time being, he was still able to command the battle immediately.
Under the leadership of Long Ji, Wei Chigong, Ma Dai, Guo Huai and others, as well as strange people such as Zhang Sanfeng and Huang Feihong, plus the young heroes Ling Tong and Liu Wuji, more than 70,000 Han troops and 130,000 Cao troops fought fiercely for one night, and it was still difficult to distinguish the winner.
In the early hours of the morning, smoke and dust were billowing in the northwest direction, and a team came from the oblique spurs, but it was Yue Yun who left Lu Meng and Huo Jun to guard Runan, and personally led 15,000 elite soldiers to help.
"Kill, Tang Yinyue should be here, who will pick me up three hammers" Yue Yun, who was already in his twenties, galloped under his crotch and carried a pair of eight-sided dragon and tiger golden hammers weighing 110 catties each to charge first.
"Ding Dong Yue Yun's special skill divine power is activated, force 3, and the current force has risen to 104" "Ding Dong Yue Yun's special skill is activated, force 3, and the current force is increased to 107" With the support of Yue Yun's new force, the morale of the Han army, which was originally at a disadvantage, was greatly shaken, although the strength was still at a disadvantage, but with the momentum of the horns, it gradually reversed the disadvantage and became an equal situation.
"Whew, whew, it's hard to break Hefei and it's hard to climb to the sky, and it's pitiful for 40,000 soldiers to shed blood under the city of Hefei, I, Cao Mengde, is difficult to step into Hefei half a step, the sky is not blessed."
Just when Cao Cao was anxious, grief-stricken and angry, and shouted, Cao Ren led the soldiers and horses retreating from Shitang Town to the battlefield, shouted and joined the battle group, allowing Cao's army to regain the advantage.
It's just that the good times didn't last long, and at noon, Jiang Wei led nearly 30,000 victorious divisions to arrive at the battlefield from the south, carrying Cao Wenzhao's body to join the battle group: "Cao Wenzhao has been given the head, and the ignorant rebels are not ready to surrender on their knees."
"Eh, was Zhuge Liang's plan seen through" After seeing Cao Wenzhao's corpse, the only remaining hope in Cao Cao's heart was also shattered, and his face was like dirt, as if he had been hit hard.
In this Hefei offensive and defensive battle, the lives of 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers were taken back and forth, and Cao Wenzhao, Cao Hong, Yue Xi, Han Qiong and other generals were lost; Shan Xiongxin was cut off an arm, Dian Wei was shot blind in one eye, he was also hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and even Guo Jia was captured by Liu Wei's ten-year-old son, which can be described as a complete defeat.
This can't help but make Cao Cao's qi and blood flow backwards and attack his heart in a hurry.
Cao Cao raised his eyes on the high slope and looked out, with the arrival of reinforcements from all walks of life, the Han army on the opposite side had exceeded 100,000 people, and was gradually equalizing with his own men and horses in terms of strength.
Although Xue Rengui was injured, Yue Yun, Long Ju, and Wei Chi Gong are all brave and good generals, and there is a bull-nosed Taoist priest who is also skilled, and there is a guy dressed as a ranger who is dazzling in fist and foot kung fu, plus two young men who have not dried up, it is simply a strange combination.
However, he led the Han army not to give up an inch of land, but slowly gained the upper hand, forcing the hundreds of thousands of Wei troops to slowly retreat.
There was also a scout Kuaima report: "Your Majesty, Han Shizhong led 30,000 sailors to land from the boat abandoned by Misu, and is marching to Hefei in a hurry, and it is expected that the battlefield will arrive in the early morning of the day after tomorrow." ” "Your Majesty, reinforcements from all walks of life of the Han army have arrived, and the soldiers are gradually becoming war-weary, and the weather is freezing.
It's better to return to Shouchun for the time being, and then make a decision after a month of recuperation" Overnight, Fan Zeng, who had a sudden increase in gray hair, made a suggestion.

Sima Yi, who was next to "Minister Sima Yi seconded", bowed his hand and agreed with Fan Zeng's suggestion.
Cao Cao also knew that he had lost the best opportunity to take down the mouth of the water and drink the Yangtze River, and if he wanted to get involved in Jiangdong, he could only unite with the Western Han Dynasty and Li Tang to plot a strategy.
The only way to do this is to temporarily retreat to Shouchun, reorganize the army, and have a head-to-head confrontation with Zhuge Liang and Xue Rengui.
If you win, you will go straight to Jinling, and if you lose, you will not be able to go south within ten years.
"Retreat" Cao Cao sighed, turned over and got on his horse, with frustration and unwillingness in his tone.
With Cao Cao's order, more than 100,000 Cao troops began to retreat, leaving only corpses all over the mountains.
The Han army naturally would not let go of this opportunity, under the leadership of Long Ji, Yue Yun, Jiang Wei and others, they chased more than 30 miles to the north, and killed and captured four or five thousand Cao troops. t1706231537:
