After Cao Cao learned about this, he sighed softly, knowing that he had to withdraw from Hanzhong quickly, otherwise he would probably be punished by Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Liu Bei, and Fa Zheng.

Abruptly blocked in the Hanzhong battlefield!

As soon as he thought of this, Cao Cao decisively ordered:"The whole army is ready to withdraw from Hanzhong! Attack Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun who are surrounding Baoxie Road! Return the same way!"

Cao Cao returned the same way and led his soldiers, who only gathered some The people of Hanzhong quickly returned to the Guanzhong area. After returning to the Guanzhong area, the original plan to weaken Hanzhong and protect Guanzhong failed!

He could only use real money and silver to strengthen the Guanzhong area.

Gather troops, garrison food, and build high walls!

Liu Bei successfully won the Battle of Hanzhong and immediately secured his position in Hanzhong. After winning the Battle of Hanzhong, he started operating without any hesitation. It took about two or three months!

Crowned as the King of Hanzhong!

It’s really a classic reproduction!

Liu Bang was also the King of Hanzhong, and his name as a Han Dynasty was derived from this!

Hanzhong should be a more meaningful place for Liu Bang, but for Liu Bei and Liu Bang, this is not the end of this journey, not even the beginning!

It can only be said to be a starting point, and it can only be said to be a transfer station!

Come down, they want to quickly capture the Guanzhong area, which is just around the corner!

Chang'an!!! We’ll see Chang’an soon!!!

……

On the other side is the Xiangyang battlefield.

About being ordered to garrison Jingzhou.

The Shu Han regime actually had two routes for the Northern Expedition. The first one was to capture Hanzhong and then engulf the Guanzhong area. Then, with the advantages of Longxi and Shuzhong, food, money and war horses, they could advance eastward and regain the Central Plains!

The second route is to follow Zhuge Liang's advice back then. After capturing Jingzhou, go north along Jingzhou to Nanyang, and take this route to enter the Central Plains.

Of these two routes, the first route is the best in controlling the overall situation!

The second route is a fast track. Historically, after Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army and shocked China, Cao Cao was so scared that he supervised it.

Xiangyang and Nanyang, these two places are really close to Xuchang, Cao Cao’s headquarters.

The capital of Cao Cao itself is not a place blessed by heaven. The Central Plains itself is just a piece of grass!

As long as the big battle is successful, we can take the Central Plains into our hands at once!

The Central Plains does not fit the pattern and is not suitable for any regime to establish a Central Plains state.

So once Liu Bei occupied Nanyang, his only choice was to attack the Central Plains. Cao Cao had no choice but to fight Liu Bei. The two of them would inevitably get the result in a decisive battle. Who is the master of the Central Plains? Who is the future master of the Central Plains!

So Nanyang... is the clarion call sounded by the Shu Han regime to the Central Plains!

Now Guan Yu is stationed in Jingzhou, and his north is Xiangyang. He has not thought about taking Xiangyang, because for Guan Yu on the Jingzhou side, Xiangyang is the attacker, and they have all the initiative!

They can go south along the river! To capture Jingzhou, all you need to do is defend Jingzhou!

But how easy is it to defend Jingzhou?

Guan Yu stood silently on the Jingzhou city wall, looking to the north, with a helpless look on his face and said:"It's a pity that I can't go to Hanzhong with my eldest brother!"

After Guan Yu said this, he narrowed his eyes. Shan Fengyan looked at the north silently. He knew that the north was about to send a large army to attack Jingzhou!

He is actually not afraid because he has been preparing for it for a long time!

Jingzhou itself is a very solid city with a high city and a deep city!

I can't say it's world-famous, but it can also be said to be world-famous for its ruggedness and durability.

Guan Yu didn't know that there was actually no peace in the north either!

Hou Yin rebelled in Wancheng because the Cao Wei regime exploited and oppressed the local people so hard that they had no choice but to rebel, so they rebelled against the Cao Wei regime!

Cao Ren sent troops to attack and besieged the city for two months!

In the end, Wancheng was captured and the city was massacred here!

This also belongs to Cao Wei's corporate culture.

After Guan Yu learned about this, he was a little speechless. When Hou Yin was rebelling, he did not notify him of Cao Cao's enemy. If he had been informed, he might be able to send troops to support him!

Guan Yu finally narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment!

Even if he finally went to the battlefield in time, there was no way he could get anything out of this storm.

Cao Cao's soldiers are so fierce!

After learning that his eldest brother had won an unprecedented victory in Hanzhong, he decided to attack today!

The land and water armies attack Xiangyang!

Guan Yu led an army of 30,000 men and surrounded Xiangyang along the Han River. Xiangyang City was surrounded by the Han River to the north and Guanshan to the south. He was surrounded on all sides (including one side by the navy) and was trapped. Got it!

Lu Chang, the defender of Xiangyang City, was in panic all day long.

Xiangyang City instantly turned into a dangerous city!

And to the north of the Han River, Fancheng!

It was Cao Ren who was ordered to complete the defense!

Cao Ren was furious when he learned about this, but Guan Yu had successfully crossed the river and set up camp in the west, and began to besiege Fancheng!

Cao Ren was horrified. At this critical moment, Cao Cao sent troops to help!

Yu Jin and Pang Tong arrived on the battlefield!

Guan Yu originally wanted to besiege the city and call for reinforcements, but a bolt of lightning pierced the sky!

Heavy rain poured down, and this heavy rain directly caused the area north of the Han River to instantly fall into floods!

This allowed Guan Yu, the only naval force on the battlefield, to successfully occupy the only initiative on the battlefield!

In order to survive, Yu Jin and Pang Tong ran towards higher ground. Due to the flood, this high slope instantly turned into an island!

This is the famous Seven Flooded Armies recorded in history, which shocked China.

In the final battle, although Yu Jin and Pang Tong held off Guan Yu for a long time, they were eventually captured by Guan Yu. Pang Tong refused to surrender and died in the fight, while Yu Jin chose to surrender.

After the heavy rain, Guan Yu still chose to attack Fancheng.

He thought about swallowing up Fancheng.

It can be seen from here that he is really anxious.

He wants to hit the ground running!

And he was not like Liu Bei, who had Zhuge Liang sitting in the rear to manage food and grass when he was fighting at Dingjun Mountain.

Behind him is Mi Fang!

Guan Yu himself looked down on Mi Fang a little. This person was so greedy that he even embezzled food, which was all military rations. Guan Yu once said to his subordinates that after this battle, he would deal with Mi Fang when he returned to Jiangling.

So there is a rift between the two of them.

Under this unstable situation at the rear. Guan Yu's front was even more unstable.

He wanted to capture Fancheng, but Fancheng was still the same as Xiangyang, with a high city and a deep pool. Whether it was Xiangyang on the south bank or Fancheng on the north bank, he never captured it in the end!

Instead, Xu Huang pretended to surrender by digging tunnels, which dragged down several other cities he captured on the north bank.

Two cities were taken away, and he also lost his men.

As a result, Guan Yu still chose to continue attacking Fancheng.
