For many people, this night is destined to be a sleepless night.

The fire in Huyukou Valley is still burning, and it looks particularly eye-catching under the deep blue night, and the mountains and fields are reflected in red.

However, the Sima army, who were blocked at this moment, no longer cared about when the fire would be extinguished, because the Bingzhou army had already evacuated on a large scale, and only Sima army's troops were left in the entire valley.

After this fierce battle, almost all the soldiers were exhausted and exhausted.

Sima Yi did not issue an order to pursue, after all, people are not iron-clad after all. After a day of fierce battle, it was time to let his army rest.

What's more, Cao Liang was full of tricks. Who knew whether the retreat of the Bingzhou Army was the beginning of another conspiracy plan. In order to avoid greater losses, Sima Yi chose to truce.

Logically speaking, Sima Yi was fully prepared in this battle. He should at least have won a hearty victory, but the result of the fierce battle disappointed Sima Yi. Although he did not lose, he did not win either.

This confrontation can only end in a draw.

This forced Sima Yi to re-examine the opponent Cao Liang. In this battle, the Sima army invested 100,000 troops, while Cao Liang had only more than 50,000 troops. In terms of military strength, Sima Yi obviously had an advantage, but unfortunately, Sima Yi did not transform this advantage into a victory.

The more fight against the few, and the more the few, the result was a 55-5 victory. For Sima Yi, this is actually not much different from failure.

Although Sima Yi has always been forbearing and low-key, he is very proud in his bones. Zhuge Liang from Shu Kingdom did not see him, and Sun Quan from Wu Kingdom and Sima Yi also regarded him as a defeated general. Even Cao Rui, who had always regarded Sima Yi as accompanied the king as a tiger, had never been convinced.

When it comes to war, looking at the current situation, Sima Yi calls himself second, but no one dares to call him first.

In conquering Wu and resisting Shu and pacifying Liaodong, Sima Yi was a person who made great achievements in the Great Wei court. His former opponents were killed by Sima Yi. For Sima Yi, living is a victory. Although he is old now, he is enough to look down on the world.

When Sima Yi launched the Luoyang mutiny, Cao Liang was the first to stand up and oppose it, and he also created a so-called "noble decree" in an attempt to compete with the Sima family.

Such an opponent is very dangerous for Sima Yi to unify the world. If Cao Liang is not destroyed, Sima Yi cannot guarantee that other forces in the world will not be effective, and will play against his Sima family.

Therefore, taking down Bingzhou and defeating Cao Liang was an issue that was urgently needed to be resolved in front of Sima Yi. So Sima Yi gathered an army of 150,000 to launch an attack on the Shangdang of Bingzhou.

Sima Yi was naturally determined to win this battle, but once he entered Bingzhou, Cao Liang gave him a warning and lost nearly 50,000 troops from two armies in succession. Such a result also made Sima Yi, who had been through many battles, look dull.

In order to prepare for this northward battle, Sima Yi made careful arrangements in advance. It was not only a one-line snake formation with balanced offense and defense, but also a secretly drawn 30,000 elite cavalry, which were Sima Yi's special means to deal with Cao Liang.

But despite this, during the Battle of Huyukou, Sima Yi still felt that he was at the back of his hands everywhere. If it weren't for the advantage of the large number of people, the force and strength, this battle would have ended with Sima Yi's failure.

Sima Yi's original goal was not achieved. Next, it would be impossible to clear out Cao Liang's remnants of power. Sima Yi ordered to camp in Huyukou, count the number of people at the same time, and calculate the losses.

The number of people from each department was quickly sent. In this battle, more than 10,000 people were killed or injured, and the combat reduction was very serious.

The number of enemies killed was greater than the losses of Sima's army. Sima Yi just glanced at the report and snorted softly, not caring about it.

All armies are a habit of lying about military achievements. They often dare to boast about killing hundreds of enemies if they kill hundreds of enemies. Although Sima Yi led his army to fight in person this time, the troops of various troops did not dare to go too far when counting the results of the battle, and they were too fraudulent in terms of the number of enemies they killed.

But despite this, perhaps it is difficult to change the bad habits. The number of people who came to the army was more or less mixed with water. Seeing the casualties of more than 20,000 Bingzhou Army, Sima Yi couldn't help but sneer. If killing the enemy could be so wonderful as this, why would it be so hard to fight?

When camping, Sima Yi ordered all troops to be alert to prevent the Bingzhou Army from suddenly killing a retaliation. Although the possibility of this is relatively low, this situation will not be ruled out. The combination of military use, the combination of virtual and real, and real generals often have unexpected and amazing actions.

In the next few days, Sima Jun did not walk out of Huyukou. In addition to cleaning up the battlefield and burying the corpses, Sima Yi also wanted to lure Cao Liang to take action again, and fight against Huyukou.

However, it was obvious that Cao Liang did not take the bait this time, and when the Bingzhou army left, there was no news. They were familiar with Shangdang geography and gave Sima Yi a headache. He missed this opportunity. It would be harder to try to annihilate Cao Liang than climb to the sky.

Sima Master asked if he wanted to attack Huguan. Sima Yi shook his head gently and said, "Originally, attacking Huguan was just a cover, and Huyukou was the key point, but unfortunately he could not capture Cao Liang. At this moment, Huguan was as afraid as Gaodu, but it was just an empty city. There was no big difference between taking it or not."

Indeed, the so-called attack on Huguan was just the intention of the drunkard. Cao Liang deliberately lured the enemy into the deep, and Sima Yi was just a trick. It was completely meaningless to attack Huguan at this time. Taking down an empty city would not solve Cao Liang's problem. If the Sima army sent troops to garrison, it would inevitably disperse its forces, giving Cao Liang an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Cao Liang's tactics were too sloppy, which made Sima's army unable to defend against. Even if there was any opportunity to take advantage of it, as long as it was captured by Cao Liang, the consequences would often be unimaginable.

Therefore, fighting against Cao Liang, you must at least have a twelve-point spirit. Although the battle at Huyukou is not decided, after Sima's army missed this opportunity, the Battle of Shangdang was already defeated. At least, Sima Yi could no longer find an effective plan.

The army was stationed at Huyukou, which was quite indecisive. Whether to go north to capture Huguan or retreat south to Gaodu, Sima Yi was undecided and hesitant.
