    "The Prime Minister has an order: launch a general attack on Cao Ying tonight. Kill one enemy and be rewarded with five bolts of silk. Capture one enemy and be rewarded with five taels. Anyone who captures Xiao Xuan's son will be rewarded with a reward of 10,000 taels, be promoted to five levels, and be granted a title.  For Wanhuhou!

    This is a God-given opportunity. In a moment, my brothers will kill me desperately. The more enemies I kill, the heavier the reward I will get. If anyone flinches before the battle, don't blame the ruthless sword in the hands of this general!  "

    "Set off!"

    ¡­¡­

    When night fell, Wu Yi and Wu Ban gathered seven or eight thousand people from their headquarters. First they had a delicious meal, each of them also drank two bowls of Zhuangxing wine, and did some pre-war mobilization!

    In order to boost morale, the two men lied against their will, turning the retreat into a general offensive, and also issued high rewards. Not knowing the truth, these soldiers excitedly rushed to Cao Jun's camp, and the shouts of killing soon broke through.  night sky

    Taking this opportunity, Zhuge Liang commanded the main force of the Shu army to quietly evacuate to the Micangshan camp. The process was quite embarrassing. All tents, flags, drums, grain and grass were abandoned. Even the Wugang chariot that he had worked hard to build was abandoned.  Just take the men and horses back!

    However, thousands of Cao's army's rangers were distributed within a radius of dozens of miles, and every move could not escape their surveillance. The Shu army was discovered more than ten miles after they withdrew from the defense line, and a fierce fight ensued. The news was also sent to the soil.  In the city

    "What, the Shu army retreated to the Micangshan camp. It seems that Zhuge Kongming has discovered the secret of the tunnel. He will run away when things go wrong. We must not let the cooked duck fly!

    Niuben and Niubai obeyed the order and led five thousand cavalry out of the city to pursue you. They will test the strength of the Shu army. I will lead the army to meet you later!  "

    "No!"

    After hearing the news of the retreat of the Shu army, Deng Ai stood up and immediately sent troops to pursue him. He was also worried that Zhuge Liang was secretly deceiving him and pretended to be retreating to lure him out of the city, but in fact he secretly set up an ambush!

    Therefore, it was safer to first send the Niu brothers to lead a small number of cavalry to pursue them, and then lead the army to respond. However, Deng Ai soon discovered that the Shu army had really retreated across the board. To be precise, it had been routed

    This was a great opportunity not to be missed. Deng Ai immediately led his army to pursue him with all his strength, biting the tail of the Shu army. The iron cavalry rampaged and killed, and issued a reward: "Anyone who captures Zhuge Liang alive will be promoted to the third level and receive a reward."  Twenty thousand!  ¡¯

    At the same time, Xiao Xuan also discovered the retreat of the Shu army, and decisively issued a pursuit order. Sixty thousand horses were like tigers descending from the mountain, and pounced on the retreating Shu army

    Wu Yi and Wu Ban tried their best to intercept, but how could thousands of tired soldiers withstand a division of 60,000 tigers and wolves? After several rounds of fighting, they surrounded, divided, and annihilated The Wu brothers both died on the battlefield!

    "Capture Zhuge alive! ¡ª¡ªCapture Zhuge Kongming alive!"

    "Return to the camp! ¡ª¡ªReturn to the camp quickly!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The pursuit began, with 70,000 to 80,000 Shu troops running desperately. At first there was still a queue, but later they became a swarm of swarms. The soldiers trampled on each other, killing and wounding countless others. No matter how loud the generals shouted, they could not control it.  The situation is over, and the old saying goes: When your father and mother marry, everyone should take care of themselves!

    Cao Jun's cavalry followed closely behind, like hungry wolves chasing sheep, tearing down the flesh and blood with big mouthfuls. The Shu army in charge of the rear launched a desperate fight. The crossbows and arrows worked hard and shot back Cao Jun's cavalry many times. However,  Caught up again soon!

    Just like this, while escaping, chasing, and fighting During the desperate struggle, a valley appeared in front of them. It was the valley where the Shu army failed to set up an ambush. It was dark and quiet inside!

    The Shu army poured into the valley like a tide and fled towards the Micang Mountain camp. Deng Ai and the Niu brothers led more than 10,000 cavalrymen to chase them to the mouth of the valley. After a little hesitation, they also rushed in

    For one thing, the Shu army was defeated like a mountain, with neither the troops to set up an ambush nor the time to plan!

    Secondly, the Shu army failed to set up an ambush in the valley before, and setting up ambushes twice in a row in one place was a taboo for military strategists!

    Third, Deng Ai sent thousands of cavalry to attack the Micangshan camp and cut off the Shu army's supply line. The men and horses shuttled through the valley several times without any problems!

    Considering the above three points, Deng Ai felt confident and bold, and led his men and horses to chase into the valley, trying to bite the tail of the Shu army, waiting for the main army to encircle him, and capture Zhuge Kongming alive in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, this wishful thinking was wrong.

    "Long!¡ª¡ªLong!"

    "No, the Shu army has an ambush. The troops and horses must exit the valley quickly!"

    "Fire, the Shu army attacked with fire!"

    ¡­¡­

    The troops have just enteredTraining, you will never be ambushed next time!

    ¡°It¡¯s God¡¯s will, it¡¯s God¡¯s will!¡±

    On the cliff, Huo Jun witnessed the whole process. He was so shocked that he couldn't open his mouth for a long time. Then he led his men and soldiers and slowly returned to the camp, thinking about how to explain everything he saw. Is it still human power?

    All the thunderbolt bottles were used up, but the fire in the valley was still burning. After discussion, Xiao Xuan, Deng Ai and others gave up their plans to continue the pursuit and led the soldiers in triumph. After all, the battle was won!

    On the other side, the Shu army retreated to the Micang Mountain camp. Their morale was low, their supplies were exhausted, and they had no ability to continue fighting. Zhuge Liang tearfully issued the order to withdraw. In order to prevent the Wei army from taking advantage of the situation, he ordered the rear troops to set fire to the camp.  Plank road, the battle at Dingjun Mountain is over!

    The Battle of Dingjun Mountain lasted for nearly three months and involved more than ten major and minor battles. Shu generals Zhang Bao, Wu Yi, and Wu Ban were killed on the battlefield, and Chen Dao was wounded and disabled. More than 30,000 troops and horses were lost, and ordnance, grain, grass, and vehicles were consumed.  countless!

    The Wei army also suffered tens of thousands of casualties and consumed countless supplies. From a tactical point of view, Wei and Shu were basically tied!

    But from a strategic point of view, the failure of the Shu Han's first Northern Expedition not only dampened the morale of the army and the people, but also severely damaged the already weak national power, and completely lost the initiative in the war!

    ??And the Wei State successfully resisted the invasion, which to a certain extent eliminated the adverse effects of replacing the Han Dynasty, thus gathering the hearts of the people within the country and firmly controlling the initiative in the war!

    After learning the news of Zhuge Liang's defeat, the Shu Han troops on Jinniu Road, Yangba Road, and Jingzhou retreated across the board. The Wei army did not take advantage of the situation to pursue them, and the two sides officially ceased fighting.

    After the Shu army withdrew to Chengdu, Zhuge Liang wrote to his young leader Liu Chan, taking full responsibility for the defeat of the Northern Expedition, resigning from the position of Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, the title of Marquis of Wuxiang, and demoted himself to the third level as a right general!

    Fortunately, the Empress Dowager Wu understood the truth and knew that the Shu Han Dynasty could not live without Zhuge Liang. She first approved the resignation memorial, and then issued an edict in the name of Liu Chan to comfort Zhuge Liang, allowing Zhuge Liang to continue to exercise the powers of the Han Prime Minister as the right general, and to oversee all military and political affairs.  The treatment of the matchmaker remains unchanged!

    On the other side, Xiao Xuan won the battle of Dingjun Mountain and initially established his prestige in the army. The soldiers and civilians praised him: "The Xiao family has a successor, and Mr. Xuan's future is limitless!"  ¡¯

    The news of the victory was delivered to Xuchang City, and everyone in the imperial court was overjoyed and celebrated for several days. Only Wei Emperor Cao Pi was unhappy, and three days later he announced that he would officially move the capital to Luoyang City!

    In the autumn of the first year of Huangchu, on September 12, the Wei Empire moved its capital to Luoyang City. On the fifth day after moving the capital, Cao Pi issued an imperial edict and formally implemented the Nine-Rank Officials Law. The edict was spread to all states, prefectures, and counties in the Central Plains, and the gentry clans  Celebrating grandly, the children from a poor family feel like they are mourning their heirs!

    Unexpectedly, just five days later, Xiao Yi announced in Chang'an that he would officially implement the imperial examination system, regardless of his or her family background, and only admit talents based on test scores.
