So, when this should happen, it always happens, and that¡¯s absolutely correct. But if not, it¡¯s really hard to force it. Ma Chao knows, Cao Cao knows, and Sun Ce also knows. They all know this, but they don't. After two days of fighting, for the two armies, it was natural that the Liangzhou Army suffered less losses, while the Yanzhou Army did indeed have more losses than them, that's right. But even if this is true, Cao Cao still thinks that his performance is good, that is. If it wasn't like that, he would have withdrawn his troops on the battlefield long ago, but if it wasn't like that, then naturally Cao Cao felt that his side's performance was acceptable. Indeed, as a traitor as he is, if the Yanzhou Army fails to perform well and suffers a big loss, he will have to let his own side retreat first, and that is correct. It can only be said that Cao Cao felt that his side performed well. Even if he still suffered more losses than his Liangzhou Army in the end, his strength was still there. Well, their individual combat power was indeed not comparable to that of his side. That was . Therefore, this is also true. If it was really not like that, Cao Cao would feel fine, but the fact is that it is like that, and there is nothing he can do about it. He thought that although his own combat power had improved, he was still not as good as the Liangzhou Army. He couldn't catch up with them. There was no way. This was also There was a gap, so Cao Cao didn't think too much about it. He couldn't catch up no matter what. It's true. So he really doesn't think too much about this, it's normal. Yes, Cao Cao wanted his own force to be comparable to the Liangzhou Army, or even to surpass the other party. But obviously, that was an extravagant wish, and he still can't do it now. There is no way, his own side has fallen far behind, and it is not as good as others. Lots of money and food. This is also the case. He knows that hard conditions are not enough, so if Cao Cao doesn't expect too much, he may not necessarily win the Liangzhou army, but he will definitely make them lose more, that's right. Therefore, he is naturally aware of the gap between his own side and the Liangzhou Army. Based on this alone, their individual combat power cannot be compared with his own. So if we want to defeat them, we have to do it again about Jizhou. That's almost the same. Otherwise, what chance will there be? But that¡¯s it, that¡¯s how it is. We have 50,000 more than them. Cao Cao is absolutely confident that, if nothing else, he can win Huguan and Shangdang. This is the most basic thing. But now it's not that the Yanzhou army is more numerous than the Liangzhou army, but the other way around. The Liangzhou army is more numerous than the Yanzhou army. They know this very well. Not counting the men and horses inside Huguan, just the 100,000 people brought by Ma Chao's army. Now the Yanzhou Army can't compare. Really, although there are less than ten thousand people less than them, this number is still less, and Cao Cao/they all know it. Not to mention that there are nearly ten thousand fewer people than the opponent, not counting those in Huguan. This Cao Cao/them thinks that their side is not at a disadvantage. That is impossible, really. Other people's advantages are their advantages. Cao Cao/they have always taken them seriously and would not say they ignored them, let alone not paying attention to them. That's not the case at all. After all, no matter how small the situation of the Liangzhou Army is, it is actually not small for Cao Cao and the Yanzhou Army. What kind of opponent and enemy are they, especially where their strength is displayed? They are actually in front of their own side. This has to be avoided by Cao Cao and everyone in the Yanzhou Army pays attention to it. This must be it. Even if it's just a little bit of action or a little bit of information from the other party, they can't say they don't pay attention to it. What if they can learn something from it? That's true. If they really didn't pay so much attention to it, or even ignored or despised it, then the Yanzhou Army would not have reached the point where it is today, second only to the Liangzhou Army. This is correct. For them, they have to pay attention to whatever is going on with the Liangzhou Army, isn't that it? If this is considered basic, at least what Cao Cao and the Yanzhou Army think. If they don't even have this, then indeed, they feel that their side cannot reach this point, that is. "Now, if there is indeed none, then it must be, regardless of whether it is the Yanzhou Army or the Liangzhou Army, it is the same. The third day of the battle between the Liangzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army was also the third battle. After the battles of the first two days, let alone Cao Cao's Yanzhou Army, their confidence has increased a bit. It is indeed not easy. Of course, this is indeed related to their battle situation, that's absolutely correct. If the Yanzhou Army suffered more losses and more casualties than the Liangzhou Army in the previous two days, Cao Cao was indeed satisfied with his own performance, that's right. After all, in his mind, if his side does not perform well, then obviously the losses will be more than they are now, which is true at all. So the current situation is actually pretty good. Let alone two days, not much can be seen, but it is still a good start. Cao Cao, a man who has been in the military for more than thirty years, can naturally see and see it based on his experience. , If our side behaves like this, although we still can't defeat their Liangzhou Army in the end, it can indeed make the other side suffer more losses. In this regard, we?Is very confident. As for the Yanzhou Army, they are actually the same as Cao Cao. They have similar ideas to their lord, but that's not it. So Anyway, if the Liangzhou Army can lose more, then no matter what they do, they think it will be the same. Worth it. Of course, with the number of people they have now, it is not about adding more troops. That is not the case. The Yanzhou Army and others do not think like that. The current situation, it really has to be said, if it develops like this, although the Yanzhou Army still cannot defeat the Liangzhou Army, it is true that they will lose more men and horses. That is absolutely correct. And this is what they want to see, but it is not what the Liangzhou Army wants. But there is nothing we can do about it. If the Yanzhou Army has always been like this, its performance is good and not bad, then the result of the matter is actually like that. Everything was as expected by Ma Chao, but he still didn't want to do that, so he was definitely right. But in that case, he can only say that his side has also performed well and is stronger than now, so that's actually fine, indeed. If our side performs well, Ma Chao knows that, then our side's casualties will be less, isn't that the case? Yes, if the Yanzhou Army performs well, it must be correct than if they perform poorly and cause more casualties to their own side. But it's the same on our own side. If our side performs well, then there must be fewer casualties than our side's poor performance, that is. For the Liangzhou Army, victory is a must. They all hope to win, and that¡¯s true. But at the same time, they all thought that it would be good if their side had fewer casualties. This must be the case, and that's right. Therefore, how the Yanzhou Army is doing is related to the level of its own casualties, but how its own performance is actually more relevant, isn't it? Therefore, for Ma Chao and the others, how their own side performs is very important. For the Liangzhou Army, it is not just that, it is, indeed. If they really suffered more casualties because the other side performed well and their own side did not perform so well, even if they still won in the end, the mood of Ma Chao and the Liangzhou Army would still be affected. This is really . Of course, although it is true that they will be affected a little, it is true that as long as they can defeat the Yanzhou Army, this is actually their ultimate goal, and that is indeed the case. Ma Chao had expected the amount of his own losses and casualties, which was true. Although he and the rest of the Liangzhou Army did not want their side to suffer too many casualties, it was true, but indeed, if things really came to pass, they would not say anything more and would have no choice but to accept it. Reality is like that, you have no choice but to do it. We must admit that in the face of reality, no matter whether it is Ma Chao or Cao Cao, they all have to compromise. I have not said that this has always been like that. What else can you do about this? Whoever doesn¡¯t accept reality is the same. Needless to say, what you can¡¯t change can only be said to be acceptance. It can be regarded as changing yourself. It¡¯s not like that. Ma Chao is the same, Cao Cao is the same, Sun Ce is the same, in this regard, there is really no difference. In this regard, it's all the same. After all, if you don't have that much ability, you can definitely change something. Yes, there are some things you can change, and that¡¯s good, but there are also things you can¡¯t change, even if it takes you a few lifetimes, that¡¯s not true. Since nothing can be changed, then you have to accept it no matter what. This is the truth. Whether you accept it or not, it will be like that in the end, really. This is helplessness. What can't be changed is helplessness. Most of the time it is like this. But no matter what, Ma Chao and Cao Cao both thought that they were doing their best, so that was fine. For them, one thing they want is to make the other side suffer more casualties, and the other is to make their own side suffer fewer casualties. They are indeed different. After all, when they come to their own side, they are the lord and the boss, and they must be thinking about their own side. That is a bit of a problem. None. Both of them felt that if they tried their best, then it would be fine, but that was not the case. And as long as they try their best, the final result will be like that. This has always been said, and it is indeed like that. It is all their thoughts. It¡¯s all about trying your best, this is better than anything else. The Yanzhou Army did not want to win. As for the Liangzhou Army, they did not want too many casualties. Of course, the Yanzhou Army also thought the same way. Cao Cao/he also thought the same way, and so did this. However, the final result was not what they thought. Both armies performed well, and both Cao Cao and Ma Chao were satisfied. However, the final result was not the most important, and so was this. If only one party performs well, of course, whoever performs well will be satisfied. That's not it. Otherwise, the performance is not good, but the chance of this happening is not high, but it is not. If one party performs well and the other performs poorly, the chances of this one are better than before, really. Of course, both armies have tried their best, so the chances of that are actually greater. Judging from the past two days, whether it is the Liangzhou Army or the Yanzhou Army, they canThey all performed well and were on a high level. Otherwise, most basically, Ma Chao and Cao Cao would not be satisfied. Their attitude and their thoughts really illustrate a lot of problems, that is. If the two armies perform poorly, Ma Chao and Cao Cao will have nothing to be satisfied with. Therefore, it must be said that they have performed well and are like this now. The current situation has only lasted two days, but they also feel that they can still see something. It won't be too much, but still, two days can be considered to represent something, but it doesn't. Ma Chao and Cao Cao both saw something, and it would be really good if they could maintain it. But who knows what will happen to us in the remaining days after that? It may not be possible anyway, so there is no telling. As long as you perform well all the time, that's fine, but if you die later, that's also really bad. But now it is only the third day and the third attack. Ma Chao and Cao Cao still have confidence in their own sides. This confidence, Cao Cao does not mean the confidence of winning, but the confidence of causing the Liangzhou Army to suffer more casualties. Of course, others are also a little more, generally speaking, it is like that. For Ma Chao, it's even simpler. He also thinks that he can perform well, and he feels relieved. It's true, that's how he thinks. If he can continue like that, there's nothing much to say. I know that Cao Cao/he is thinking, how can this cause more casualties to one's own side, but if one's own side also performs well, then naturally the casualties will be less than if one's side performs poorly. This is still the case, that's it, that's right. . Now it's all "take one step and see the next". This is the case for these two people and both armies. The current situation may not last until the end, but as long as it can be maintained, both of them are indeed satisfied. That's it. But they have already thought that the final situation may not be as simple as they thought, so they have thought about it, and it is probably going to be difficult. But so what, it can determine that something is true, but it is not absolute, and that is true. It's true that the two of them have concerns, but now there are more expectations, which is good. Thinking about how we can still fight to the death with the enemy now, and if we continue to fight like this, it is actually a good thing. Even if Cao Cao knew that he could not win and would lose 70% of the time, wouldn't he still win 30% of the time? The words here are somewhat meant to comfort myself, which is true. Maybe he felt that it would be good to have a decisive battle with the Liangzhou Army at Huguan. Even if his own side had no advantage, the Liangzhou Army did not have a big advantage over the opponent. Of course, they had many advantages, and this was.
