In the 16th year of Jian 'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty in China (2 1 1), Cao Cao defeated Ma Chao and Han Sui in the south of Weishui and seized Guanzhong. After Battle of Red Cliffs, Cao Cao was blocked from going south and turned west. /kloc-in March of 0/6, Ma Chao, Han Sui and others learned that Cao Cao wanted to go west to Guanzhong, that is, to unite 65,438+10,000, and * * * refused Cao. Cao Cao shilling, General Anxi and Governor Coss will advance on Tongguan, but they will not fight. In July, he personally unified the troops and confronted Ma Chao in Tongguan. In August, Cao Cao pretended to make a surprise attack, lured the Guanzhong generals to gather, took advantage of the emptiness north of Weihe River, and secretly sent generals Huang Xu and Zhu Lingling to cross the Yellow River 4,000 steps from Pubanjin (now Yongji West, Shanxi Province), taking Hexi as the camp. In leap August, Cao Cao crossed the river from Beidu near Tongguan to Puban, then crossed the river to meet Huang Xu and went south along the river.

Ma Chao and others led Tongguan defenders to attack Weikou (the Weihe River enters the Yellow River estuary) to stop Cao Jun, and Cao Cao sent troops to cover the pontoon bridge, and divided troops to the south of the Weihe River at night, threatening the left wing of Ma Chao and other troops. Ma Chao and others were afraid of being stopped on their way home, so they divided their forces and attacked Cao Ying. Defeated by the ambush, Cao Cao refused to concentrate on the main defense and cede territory for peace. In September, Cao Jun's main force crossed the Weihe River and stuck to it. Ma Chao and others couldn't fight, so they made peace. Cao Cao adopted counselor Jia Xu and made a false promise. When Ma Chao and Han Sui were suspicious and slack, Cao Jun quickly attacked, first with light soldiers, and then with cavalry attacking from both wings, and won a great victory. Ma Chao and Han Sui retreated to the west, and Guanzhong was occupied by Cao Cao.

The battle of Tongguan was a war between Cao Cao and western heroes such as Ma Chao and Han Sui. At that time, Cao Cao lost in the southern front, so he decided to expand westward. Affected by this news, Ma Chao, Han Sui and others rose up and fought Cao Jun near Tongguan in Guanzhong. Finally, Cao Cao won by playing tricks and suppressed Guanzhong.

In this campaign, Cao Cao defeated several legions in Guanzhong that held the emperor to make the princes, so that they could not jointly resist and their strength was greatly weakened. Later, Cao Cao accepted it further, and sent Xia to guard Chang 'an and pacify Han Sui with Zhang He. Although Ma Chao constantly rallied the masses to arise, they were all suppressed by Xia, and finally only Zhang Lu who fled to Hanzhong made a guest appearance. 2 12 In May, Cao Cao killed Ma Teng, an official in Beijing.
