Zhuge Liang naturally would not sit idly by and watch the Wei State cross the river.

At the moment, Liu Chan was attacking the rear army of the Wei army from the west, and Zhuge Liang could also attack the front army of the Wei army from the east.

In this way, the Wei army will be dedicating a part of its forces to stop the Han army, and even fewer troops will be able to escape back.

Lin Xiao received the order of General Zhuge Liang and led the 20,000 soldiers and horses in the battalion to the west.

Guo Huai was directing the soldiers and horses to cross the river, and a soldier ran over in a panic and reported to Guo Huaiyu: "General, in the Shu army camp in the east, Lin Xiao led 20,000 soldiers and horses to kill it. ”

"Damn!" Guo Huai was immediately annoyed when he heard this.

Zhuge Liang sent Lin Xiao here, if he didn't care about Lin Xiao, then his soldiers and horses would be killed, and the soldiers would not be able to cross the river.

But if troops were sent to stop Lin Xiao, the soldiers and horses sent would have no chance to cross the river.

Hu Zun said: "At the moment, it is only one trip, only leaving 5,000 people, and at this rate, it will not be finished until dawn tomorrow." You have to send someone to stop the Shu army. General, the last general will take all the soldiers and horses! ”

"Take care!" Guo Huai opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, patted Hu Zun's shoulder and said take care.

"Brothers, come with me!" With a wave of his hand, Hu Zun took 10,000 soldiers to stop Lin Xiao.

In the west, Cao Zhen and Shi Bao led 20,000 soldiers and horses to block Liu Chan, and in the east, Hu Zun led 10,000 soldiers to block Lin Xiao.

This also means that these 30,000 people have no chance to go back.

The soldiers and horses on both sides are fighting to the death, racing against time.

Cao Zhen's 20,000 horses were responsible for blocking Liu Chan's 70,000 horses, and the losses were the heaviest.

The armored cavalry and heavy cavalry charged the Wei army in front, while the foot soldiers reaped the lives of the Wei army in the back, and Cao Zhen had no cavalry to resist the Han cavalry, so he could not stop the Han army's attack at all.

Cao Zhen led the soldiers and horses to fight bloodily, Shi Bao was stabbed under the horse by Zhao Yun in the chaotic army, life and death are unknown, and Guo Huai sent 10,000 soldiers and horses to support, which was able to stop the Han army.

As for the situation of the Wei army in the east, the situation is slightly better, there is no cavalry on Zhuge Liang's side, although the Wei army has few people and its combat effectiveness is lower than that of the Han army, but the battle of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses is difficult to distinguish the winner in a short time.

At this moment, it was already dark, and Hao Zhao transported four times back and forth on the river, transporting 20,000 soldiers and horses across the river.

The Wei army used 30,000 soldiers and horses to resist Liu Chan, 10,000 soldiers and horses to resist Lin Xiao, and transported 20,000 soldiers and horses across the river, so that the Chinese army only had 30,000 left.

Zhuge Liang saw that the strength of the Wei army was no longer many, so he asked Lin Yuan to bring the remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses over to support Lin Xiao.

The reason why Zhuge Liang did not send all 40,000 soldiers and horses at one time was because the Wei army did not cross the river at the beginning, and the Chinese army had 70,000 troops, which was sufficient.

If the Wei army did not choose to cross the river, but fought to the east, 70,000 against 40,000, the Han army was at a disadvantage, and if it was defeated, the main force of the Wei army could break through from the east and flee to Tongguan.

Although there is still Huang Xu's camp in front, the defense of this camp is one-way, and it can only defend against the enemy in the east, and outside Huang Xu's camp, where is Sima Yi leading the soldiers and horses of Tongguan to respond, if Zhuge Liang's side is defeated, the Wei army will successfully break through.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang waited for a while, and after the Wei army transported some troops across the river, to ensure that the Wei army was not able to break through by land, he pressed the remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses.

Lin Yuan led his troops to support, but the Wei army only had 10,000 horses, and it couldn't resist the 40,000 Han army at all.

The soldiers ran to Guo Huai again for help: "General, Zhuge Liang sent another 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the brothers are about to be unable to stop it." ”

Guo Huai shouted: "There are no soldiers and horses to send, I must let Hu Zun block it for me!" ”

The soldier looked embarrassed: "General Hu has been killed by Lin Xiao, and the brothers really can't stop it!" ”

"Damn!" Hearing this, Guo Huai slammed his fist on the dead tree by the river.

"General, I'll bring 3,000 soldiers and horses to support!" Seeing this, he said.

"Old general, no!"

"The old man is over sixty years old, and he has lived enough! Come with me, brethren! He waved his hand, and with a wave of his hand, he brought three thousand soldiers and horses over.

He led 3,000 soldiers and horses to the battlefield, and because Lin Yuan brought another 20,000 soldiers and horses, the Wei army had been defeated on all fronts.

"Brothers, kill with me!" Seeing this, he hurriedly joined the battlefield with 3,000 soldiers and horses.

It was already dark by now.

The night gave Wei Jun a chance to breathe.

Because of the lack of vision in the night, if you continue to fight, it will cause accidental injury.

And the battle has been going on for a day, and the soldiers are very tired and hungry.

Therefore, on the east and west sides, Zhuge Liang and Liu Chan ordered the soldiers and horses to temporarily retreat, regroup, and light torches to advance step by step.

The Wei army seized the time, resting and recuperating in the battle, and seizing the time to cross the river.

Two hours later, the battle began again.

The Han army had eaten and drunk enough, replenished their physical strength, and lit torches to fight by the light of the fire.

The Wei army has also regrouped and continues to resist the Han army.

The shouting continued for a night.

By the time of the fifth watch, the sky was already bright, and the blood on the battlefield was like a river, and the corpses were piled up, and the blood flowed into the Yellow River, dyeing the entire river surface red.

At this moment, the Wei army had all crossed the river and retreated, and a total of 45,000 people successfully crossed the river to escape.

In the west, Cao Zhen's 30,000 people, only 10,000 remnants of the defeated army have been defeated, and in the east, Hu Zun has already died in battle, and he is also wounded, more than 10,000 people, only 3,000 or 4,000 people remain.

Seeing that half of the soldiers and horses had fled, Guo Huai finally breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the soldiers: "Quickly let the general and the old general withdraw and cross the river first!" ”

The soldiers ran to the battlefield and informed Cao Zhen: "General, the soldiers and horses have crossed the river, General Guo told you to withdraw quickly." ”

Cao Zhen was already covered in blood at the moment, and there were no less than a dozen large and small wounds on his body.

Cao Zhen supervised the battle in the rear, bent his bow to shoot a charging Han army, and commanded the soldiers: "Let the brothers slowly retreat, the brothers are not gone, I can't go!" ”

On the other hand, he withdrew from the army, but he did not withdraw on his own initiative, but was carried back by the soldiers.

Lying on the stretcher, the soldier carrying him said to Guo Huai with a sad face: "The old general was stabbed by Lin Yuan last night and was seriously injured, but he refused to withdraw, and he didn't let us tell the general that he finally couldn't hold it just now." ”

Lying on the stretcher, he said to Guo Huai with a weak face: "Guo Huai, have the soldiers all withdrawn?" ”

"It's all withdrawn, it's all withdrawn!" Guo Huai squatted down, held the hand holding the beckon, and said.

"Now that I've withdrawn, I'm relieved." He breathed a sigh of relief and closed his eyes.

Guo Huai hurriedly shouted: "You guys quickly take the old general across the river to heal!" ”

To the east, a group of soldiers came running at this moment, and the number was not large, only two or three thousand.

Seeing this, Guo Huai hurriedly asked, "What about the general?" Why didn't you come? ”

The soldier replied, "The general told them to withdraw first and cross the river, but he refused to cross the river until the soldiers left." ”
