    "There must be no more neglect now, and we should think of strategies to deal with it. Otherwise, the country will be in disaster!!"

    As soon as Xu Huang said this, the faces of all the civil and military officials turned gloomy, their brows furrowed, and their hearts burned with anxiety.  Deng Ai's expression tightened, and he paid his respects before reporting the matter.

    "In view of Ai Zhi, it is better to withdraw first and retreat to the river. Now all the counties and counties are dispatching thunder cannons to the river. By then, our army will have the thunder cannons in hand and defend the city. There is no need to  To the Wei bandits!"

    Regarding the matter of thunder cannons, Wen Han truthfully informed his subordinates of important civil and military matters.  Deng Ai and other generals also knew the pros and cons and would conceal it.  After hearing this, Pang Tong sighed, shook his head and said.

    "There are many talented and resourceful people in the Wei army. If our army wants to withdraw, the Wei army will definitely kill them. The Wei army has many people and strength. If anything happens, our army may never be able to recover."

    As soon as Pang Tong finished speaking, all the civil and military officials suddenly became more worried.  At this time, Zhao Yun's face darkened, his eyes flashed, he spoke with emotion, his voice was like a loud bell, he cupped his hands and said.

    "If this is the case, why don't we use retreat as an advance and teach the troops to retreat? Instead, we lay out heavy troops in ambush at key points in the mountains behind the pass. Wait for the Wei invaders to come and kill them. Then, all the ambush troops will come out and fight with their backs.  Let¡¯s compete!¡±

    Hearing this, Pang Tong pondered for a while, then quickly shook his head again.

    "At this moment, our army's morale is low, its vigor is greatly reduced, and its morale is unstable. If the Wei invaders find out about our army's plan and have been prepared for it, and the two armies fight, our army may lose more than win. This move is too risky.  It¡¯s better to find another plan.¡±

    When Zhao Yun heard this, his heart tightened, his face tensed up with anxiety, and he was about to open his mouth to speak.  Suddenly, Wen Han, who had not spoken yet and had a serious look on his face, suddenly shot out two dazzling rays of light from the eyes of his sword. He was filled with energy and shouted in a concentrated voice.

    "The Prime Minister's words are premature, but I think Zilong's plan is very feasible!!"

    When Pang Tongtong heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He was very flustered and bowed his hands.

    "Your Majesty, wait a minute! The Wei invaders have had the upper hand for days and are attacking with thunderbolt chariots. Our army has repeatedly attacked, but they all come back defeated and their energy is completely defeated. On the contrary, the Wei invaders all want to conquer our army in one fell swoop. Their morale is high and their energy is at its peak. What's more,  Cao Mengde, Jia Wenhe, Cao Zixiao, as well as Sima Zishang, Jiang Boyue, Hao Bodao and others are all extraordinary people. How can I hide this from your majesty?"

    Wenhan was not a headstrong person. In fact, he had a plan in mind. He smiled brilliantly and talked to Pang Tong.

    "Prime Minister, please be patient and don't be impatient. I have a plan."

    Pang Tongyi listened and his eyes widened.  Wen Han then spoke harshly, teaching like this.  Pang Tong's face changed continuously when he heard this, and he was surprised again and again, only then did he realize the wonder of it.  After a moment, Pang Yi's face was filled with ecstasy, he was sincerely convinced, and he bowed happily.

    "Your Majesty is indeed a divine man, but he is not as good as the emperor."

    As Wen Han¡¯s strategy was revealed, all the civil and military personnel were in high spirits and looked shocked.  Wen Shun's sword eyes were gleaming, full of fighting spirit, and he secretly swore in his heart.

    "Sima Zishang, I must capture you this time, because of the blood feud between the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in vain and Lao Niu!!"

    So the generals mobilized according to their plan. That night Wen Shun and Deng Ai led the rear army with 100,000 troops and horses, along with baggage and weapons, and dispersed and retreated.  Wei Jun's scouts found out and rushed to report to Sima Zhao.  After Sima Zhao heard the report, he did not dare to make his own decision and hurried back to the camp to report to Cao Cao.  But when Cao Cao heard Sima Zhao's report in the tent, he was shocked and his pale face turned rosy. He ordered the people around him to summon the civil and military personnel of the army and immediately went to the tent to discuss.  After a while, Cao Ren, Jia Xu and other civil and military officials arrived one after another and sat down at the table.  Sima Zhao told the Tang army's movements in detail one by one.  When Cao Ren heard this, he looked very happy, clapped his hands several times, and laughed heartily.

    "Hahaha!! The Tang thieves are already timid and want to withdraw their troops. This is a great opportunity for our army to carry out a large-scale cover-up and killing. Your Majesty, I am willing to lead an army tomorrow and will definitely kill all the thieves!!  "

    Jia Xu frowned, but he was calm and determined. He didn't look happy, but he asked Sima Zhao first.

    "Sir, how is the defense at Hulao Pass now?"

    Sima Zhao¡¯s face was shocked, and he answered with his hands raised.

    "Return to the Prime Minister. Hulao Gate has been riddled with holes under continuous attacks by Pili chariots and cannot be used for any purpose. Our army will attack with all our strength and it will not take a moment to break through!!"

    When Jia Xu heard this, his snake-like eyes shot out two rays of light, and he nodded.

    "In this way, even if the bandit army wants to ambush behind the pass, as long as our army is prepared, with the strength of our army and the number of people, it will not be a problem."

    After Jia Xu finished speaking, he looked at Cao Cao.  Cao Cao's pair of eyes that could swallow the sky emitted a frightening light, he was full of energy and laughed.

    "Hahahaha!! In the current situation, even if Na Wen Bufan and Pang Shiyuan are so talented,, full of resourcefulness, but also unable to save the day.  The world will eventually be mine!  !  "

    As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, all the civil and military officials in the Wei army were ecstatic, and they all came to congratulate him, flattering him and praising him endlessly.  But at this time, Sima Zhao's expression changed, and for some reason his whole body was trembling. He had an indescribable ominous premonition, and he said with concern.

    "Things on the battlefield are always changing rapidly, and Zhao believes that we should not be careless. Can we let Zhao make a prediction first, and then His Majesty make a decision?"

    When Cao Cao heard this, his face darkened.  All the generals felt that Sima Zhao was losing interest and had no good color.  Cao Ren did the same, waving his hand and saying.

    "The situation has been decided, there is no need to do anything more!"

    At this time, Jia Xu secretly winked at Cao Cao.  Cao Cao knew that Sima Zhao's Sixty Hexagrams of the Book of Changes were extremely accurate, so he wanted to give it a try and said with a smile.

    "In the past, King Wen of Zhou Dynasty, Jichang, was able to overthrow the tyranny of King Zhou. This hexagram in the Book of Changes has made a great contribution. I thought I might as well give it a try."

    Cao Ren and other generals heard the words. Although they were not happy, they did not dare to refute.  At Cao Cao's signal, Sima Zhao sat down at the table, took out the sixty hexagrams, and divined them with a few hexagrams in front of him.  Unexpectedly, Sima Zhao performed divination three times in a row, and all the hexagrams were stuck.  Sima Zhao's face became more solemn, and all the civil and military officials frowned.  Cao Cao also saw this, his face was dark and he was very unhappy.  Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Sima Zhao became more and more nervous and unknowingly used a little more strength.  Suddenly, there was a crackling sound, and a thin crack appeared in the golden turtle shell in Sima Zhao's hand.  When Cao Cao saw this, his expression suddenly changed and he shouted angrily.

    "Sima Zishang, you dare to disturb the morale of our army. What crime should you deserve!!?"

    When Sima Zhao heard this, he suddenly had a look of fear on his face, hurried out, kowtowed.

    "Your Majesty, please forgive me. The offender is just a simple learner and is just trying to do what he wants. Perhaps this battle is about the whole world and cannot be calculated by manpower. Please forgive me!!"

    Cao Cao was furious. After drinking it, he wanted to drag Sima Zhao out and kill him to stabilize the morale of the army.  After all, this battle is of great importance, and Cao Cao had reason to kill him so cruelly.  When the generals saw that Cao Cao was so angry that he would not hesitate to kill his adopted son, they did not dare to say anything.  At this time, Jiang Wei and Hao Zhao came out in a hurry, knelt down and begged for Sima Zhao's mercy.  Even so, Cao Cao's anger did not diminish.  Cao Ren sighed and went to intercede for Sima Zhao.

    "Your Majesty, please calm down. Although Sima Zishang is guilty of the death penalty, it is difficult to spare him, but considering that he has made many achievements in the past, and it is the right time to employ people in the army. Why not spare him the death penalty and give him a chance to make up for his mistakes?"

    After hearing this, Cao Cao's face darkened and his anger gradually faded away.  Seeing this, the generals dared to intercede for Sima Zhao one after another.  Therefore, Cao Cao temporarily exempted Sima Zhao from the crime and demoted him to the rank of captain in the army to serve as a warning to others.  Sima Zhao cried bitterly, thanked him and returned to the banquet.  Cao Cao then forced himself to discuss with the generals about sending troops.  The generals received the order and retreated one after another, each making arrangements.

    The next day, the sun was just rising.  Wei army scouts came to report that most of the Tang army, numbering hundreds of thousands, had already withdrawn after Hulao Pass. There were only tens of thousands of troops guarding the pass.  Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard the news, and quickly taught Hao Zhao to lead his troops and horses to quickly attack the pass. Then he ordered Cao Ren to personally lead the generals, troops and horses of each department, and an army of nearly 500,000, to respond later.  Cao Cao then led an army of more than 100,000 troops to stay behind just in case.  Following Cao Cao's order, nearly 700,000 Wei soldiers were in turmoil.  Hao Zhao led more than 100,000 soldiers and horses from the front to advance quickly. Sima Zhao first commanded the thunder chariot to provide cover.  Under the repeated attacks of Pili chariots, Guan Tang's soldiers fled in all directions and became a mess.  After a while, Hao Zhao led his troops to kill him.  One hundred thousand Wei soldiers, huge and huge, were rushing in like a flood, and their shouts of killing shook the heaven and the earth.  Xu Huang, who was in charge of breaking up the rear, made a decisive decision and immediately ordered the soldiers to evacuate.  When Hao Zhao saw Xu Huang retreating, he sneered and felt overjoyed, and quickly taught his soldiers to seize the pass.  I can see that Hulao Pass still has the majesty of the former most dangerous pass in the world. There are fractures, holes, broken trees and rocks everywhere, and the sky is everywhere.  The Wei army attacked in a large scale, but the Tang soldiers in the pass had withdrawn and there was no one to guard them.  Within a few moments, 100,000 Wei troops broke through Hulao Pass.

    Cao Ren came with an army of nearly 500,000 people. Seeing that Hulao Pass had been broken, all the soldiers under his command were overjoyed and raised their arms and shouted loudly, the momentum was overwhelming.  Cao Ren was so proud of the spring breeze that he galloped wildly and ordered all the troops to advance in force.

    On the other side, it was said that Hao Zhao, the vanguard general of the Wei army, had captured the pass. He thought that there were 500,000 to 600,000 troops in the rear to support him. He was so strong that he immediately led his troops to watch Xu Huang's army and kill him.  Xu Huang hurriedly led his troops to retreat. Hao Zhao chased him to a high place in the mountains. Looking over, he saw that the Tang soldiers were in a hurry and disorderly manner. Not far away, he saw most of the Tang troops withdrawing in a hurry.  Hao Zhao's eyes flickered, but he was not in a hurry. He looked around and saw a nearby reed bush full of people and birds flying in fright.  Hao Zhao's face darkened and he looked closely, but he saw no saltpeter, sulfur or other igniting materials around.  Suddenly, Hao Zhao realized in his heart that there had been heavy rains more than ten days ago, and then it was cloudy for several days without the sun. The climate within a hundred miles below was humid. Even if the traitors of the Western Tang Dynasty tried to use fire tactics, they might not be able to do so.Success.

    After Hao Zhao thought about it, he made up his mind and taught his generals to prepare for battle, and then led his troops to advance.

    After a while, Hao Zhao rushed to the road near the reed bush, and suddenly there was a loud roar, and a Tang general led his troops out, it was Deng Aiye.

    "Hao Bodao, I've been waiting here for a long time!!"

    Deng Ai glared at him, raised his horse and pointed his gun, shouted loudly, and Pegasus came to fight Hao Zhao.  Hao Zhao was already prepared, twisting his double whip to meet the attack.  Behind Hao Zhao, all the generals flew out on horseback to help in the battle.  In the midst of the lightning and flint, Deng Ai and Hao Zhao took the lead in fighting each other with their weapons. Huangniao and Fudo Mingwang suddenly appeared.  At the same time, the soldiers of the Wei and Tang armies responded one after another. Soldiers from each team on both sides killed each other and formed a melee.

    The Wei army was well prepared, had a large number of people, and was full of vigor.  Deng Aijun was killed and retreated steadily.  At this moment, there were shouts of killing and thundering sounds from behind the reeds, but it was Xu Huang who led his troops back to fight.  Hao Zhao gathered his energy and led his troops to attack, which was overwhelming.  Xu Huang led his troops and rushed over to stabilize the situation for the time being.

    On the other side, it was said that Cao Ren had just led his troops through Hulao Pass.  Suddenly a Qingqi came to report that the vanguard general Hao Zhaozheng and the Tang army were fighting on a reed road to the east.  Jiang Wei, who was beside Cao Ren, suddenly changed his expression when he heard this, and said hurriedly.

    "The Tang thieves are ambushing by the reeds. If they use fire to attack, there will be dense forests and mountains everywhere. If they catch fire, they will catch fire, and the consequences will be disastrous!!"

    When Cao Ren heard this, Fu Xu laughed and talked to Jiang Wei.

    "Bo Yue, don't worry too much. It rained heavily for several days, and then it was cloudy for several days. The climate within a hundred miles below is humid. Even if the Tang thieves wanted to attack with fire, they probably wouldn't be able to do so!! This must be the case!  The fake Emperor Wen¡¯s treacherous plan is to deceive our troops and enable them to retreat!¡±

    When Jiang Wei heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he soon realized it and hurriedly apologized.  Cao Ren smiled brilliantly, full of energy, and spoke to the generals behind him.

    "The world belongs to us, and this is the battle! We, the imperial emoluments, should be loyal to the emperor. Everyone listens to the order, and you must fight hard later to help your majesty win the great cause of the country!!!"

    Cao Ren shouted together, and all the Wei generals shouted loudly, their momentum rising.  So Cao Ren led his troops to advance, and more than 500,000 Wei soldiers filled the mountains and fields to kill them. There were shouts of killing in all directions, like soldiers all over the grass and trees.  It is said that Cao Cao led his troops behind, and when he saw that both the front and center armies were rushing through the pass, he was greatly shocked and urged his troops to move.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????:  Suddenly, shouts of killing broke out, overwhelming the sky and the earth.  Everyone in the Tang army changed their minds and were horrified.  After a while, Jiang Wei led his troops to arrive first and flew his horses to fight.  Deng Ai's face became anxious and he quickly turned his horse to meet Jiang Wei.  Xu Huang killed Hao Zhao.  As the number of Wei soldiers increased, all Wei soldiers were brave enough to fight without fear of death.  Xu Huang's and Deng Ai's armies could not resist and were killed and dispersed in chaos.  Deng Ai and Xu Huang reined in their horses and fled.  When Cao Ren saw this, he was overjoyed. He thought the victory was determined. He shouted loudly and told the troops to cover up and kill. He caught up with most of the Western Tang army and captured the puppet emperor Wenhan.  As a result, nearly 600,000 Wei troops rushed forward and attacked rapidly.

    In a moment, Hao Zhao and Jiang Wei led their troops out of a dense forest, and saw most of the Tang army not far from the plain ahead.  When most of the Tang army saw the 600,000 Wei army coming to attack them, they were immediately frightened and fell into chaos.
