At the same time that Cao Cao was calculating, Jia Xu was also calculating.

The allocation of Wei State's troops was already clear in his heart.

He can naturally judge that with the current number of soldiers and horses in Wei, he really can't distinguish a single soldier and go to reinforce Hanzhong.

What's more, judging from the surface battle in Hanzhong, except for the accidental abandonment of the Sword Pavilion, the Hanzhong Army did not suffer substantial losses.

Cao Zhen still has 40,000 soldiers and horses in his hands.

The terrain of Hanzhong is similar to that of Guanzhong, Cao Zhen does not need to divide his troops to defend many passes, he only needs to hold Yangping Pass, and he can block Guan Yu's 80,000 Han troops from entering Hanzhong.

The danger of Yangping Pass is enough to reach a million male divisions, not to mention only 80,000 enemy troops.

On the surface, if Cao Zhen can stick to the strategy of shrinking and not fighting, it is indeed not a problem to hold Yangping Pass.

"Now the situation seems to be the only way to do what Your Majesty said. "

"It's just that the minister thinks that His Majesty will issue more holy decrees, and tell Cao Zhen not to fight. "

"Even if the sky falls and the ground sinks. "

"Even if Guan Yu and Deng Mu died violently, and the Han army was in chaos without a fight, they must not be greedy for merit and rush to war!"

Jia Xu said earnestly.

With Jia Xu's words, Cao Cao also had confidence in his heart.

"Okay, okay, that's it. "

"I will issue another decree, strictly ordering Zidan not to fight!"

"Even if Deng Mu is dead, he is not allowed to fight!"

Cao Cao had made up his mind, and even after writing down the holy decree, he sent a messenger Pegasus south and went straight to Yangping Pass.

...

Yang Ping closes.

Cao Zhen received Cao Cao's holy decree, and the whole person was also relieved.

This means that Cao Cao still trusts him, and does not cut his military power, nor does he accuse him of the guilt of falling into the Sword Pavilion.

Moreover, Cao Cao also granted his invitation and did not send troops to Hanzhong for reinforcements, showing his trust in his ability to command.

This made Cao Zhen feel relieved, and the whole person also walked out of the shadow of the lost Sword Pavilion.

Thereupon.

Cao Zhen showed Cao Cao's holy decree to the ministers present, and passed down the order that no matter how the Han army outside the city collapsed, it would never fight.

So far.

Cao Zhen then strengthened his belief, led 30,000 Wei troops, set up a turtle formation, and determined to stick to Yangping Pass.

Yangguan is outside the gate.

80,000 Han troops have been stationed at the pass.

At dusk.

Guan Yu and Deng Mu took a group of young ministers and generals out of the camp, climbed a high slope, and looked at the situation in Yangpingguan from afar.

As far as the eye can see, everything is shocking.

I saw this Yangping Guancheng, located in the west of Hanzhong, in a north-south direction.

To the north and south are steep mountains that even the best hunters at mountain walking cannot climb.

The location of the city is located in a high position, and the terrain in front of the gate is narrow, which can only accommodate a few thousand people to spread, and it is condescending.

If the Han army wanted to attack, it had to attack from the back and was condescendingly suppressed by the Wei army's crossbowmen.

And when the attacking troops climbed to the pass, they could not be used because of the narrow terrain, and they could only attack the city with more than 2,000 people at most.

This offset the advantage of the Han army's large number of soldiers.

"This Yangping Pass is really a heavenly hell!"

Guan Yu stroked his beautiful hair and sighed with emotion.

He has always been proud, his eyes are empty, and he does not take the enemy of the world in his eyes.

But in the face of this Yangping Pass, for the first time in his life, he was jealous.

"Everyone, let's talk about it, how do we break this level?"

Guan Yu looked back at the generals.

The young generals have offered their ideas. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Some people advocate using trebuchets to collapse Yangpingguan.

Some advocate digging tunnels.

Some people also advocate that they should follow Cao Cao's strategy of breaking the Yangping Pass and induce Cao Zhen to fight.

As a result, they were denied by Guan Yu one by one.

First of all, this Yangping Pass is built of mountain stones, and it can withstand the bombardment of Xiangyang artillery.

Secondly, Yangping Pass is condescending, and even the Xiangyang cannon can't hit it.

In addition, with the terrain of Yangping Pass, if you want to dig tunnels, you don't know how to dig until the Year of the Monkey.

What's more, there are many mountains and rocks around, and if you encounter the rocks in the ground halfway through the digging, isn't it a failure?

As for the plan, inducing Cao Zhen to fight, he was also denied by Guan Yu.

Guan Yu can also see that now Cao Cao knows that Deng Mu is in the Yizhou Army, and he borrows ten courages from him, and he does not dare to order (promised) Cao Zhen to fight.

Cao Cao will definitely issue an order, and Cao Zhen must not go to war with three orders and five repetitions, so as not to fall into Deng Mu's plan.

Guan Yu took a breath and denied all the suggestions of the young generals.

Everyone fell silent, scratching their ears and cheeks, and there was nothing they could do.

"'Prime Minister, how do you say we should break through the Yang Ping Pass?'

Guan Yu had no choice but to turn his gaze to Deng Mu. []

In the end, you have to rely on this ghostly and scheming prime minister.

Deng Mu was not in a hurry, and ordered Zhou Cang to bring the map and spread it out in front of Guan Yu.

"General Guan, in fact, the key to breaking Yangping Pass is not in Yangping Pass itself. "

"And here!".
