The sky was a little gloomy, and after capturing Yu Ban, although the main general was captured, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses were not in chaos. Xu Sheng led the troops out of the city, and the morale-boosting Xuzhou soldiers rushed to the Cao army outside the city with Tao Ying's unpredictable legend, and as soon as the four hundred cavalry arrived, the army on both sides of Cao Cao outside the city began to collapse.

Because the people in the army were panicked, everyone said that Cao Jun slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Xuzhou soldiers and civilians, they refused to go to hell after they died, and condensed their grievances into the true body of Tao Ergongzi, and they are now asking Cao Jun for his life!

With the rout of the military horses on both sides, soon Cao's army also began to change its formation, and Cao Cao's cronies and deputy vanguard officers wanted to withdraw, but they were afraid that Cao Cao would blame them, and wanted to continue to attack the city, but they couldn't stop the chaos. The deputy vanguard took out his waist knife and cut a few fleeing soldiers, and more than a dozen generals who accompanied him also wanted to run for their lives, so when the deputy vanguard asked them to charge, a general galloped and killed the deputy vanguard with a knife in his hand, and the main and deputy generals of the three armies were all killed, and the Cao soldiers were even more chaotic.

Tao Ying knew that he had defeated them in the hearts of the people, so he ordered Xu Sheng's entire army to attack! So Xu Sheng led four hundred cavalry to start a long drive into the slaughter, and the anger that had accumulated in the hearts of the Xuzhou soldiers was finally released.

Tao Ying looked at the soldiers and horses that were getting closer and closer in the distance to stop them, when Xu Sheng led the cavalry to chase all the way away, Tao Ying kept looking at Xu Sheng, and when Xu Sheng gradually disappeared from view, Tao Ying hurriedly asked Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.

Xu Sheng is on the rise, where is he willing to return to the army? Fortunately, several fellow villagers next to Xu Sheng hurriedly rode over to intercept Xu Sheng, who was killing enemies everywhere, and it was a capital crime to resist the order and disrespect, so Xu Sheng had to withdraw his horse and return to the army sullenly.

This war lasted until the evening, and the routs in the distance fled everywhere, but in the evening sunset, Tao Ying looked far away, and the scattered deserters seemed to be fighting with other military horses, and many began to gather in Pengcheng again.

Tao Ying was a little anxious in his heart, he knew that in Xiaopei, which was not far away, there was an elite army. Could it be that they came to support the Pengcheng battlefield? Did they gather a rout to capture Pengcheng? It's just that I don't know who led the troops under Cao Cao, which made Tao Ying a little worried.

As night fell, the vision gradually blurred, the soldiers in the city lit torches, the autumn wind blew, the northern Pengcheng was a little cold, so cold that even the twinkling stars in the sky hid in the clouds.

After all, he was not a god, so just in case, Tao Ying ordered the soldiers to pack up Pengcheng's belongings and be ready to withdraw at any time. Xu Sheng asked again what to do with the grain and grass piled up in the city? After all, there is a lot of grain and grass piled up in this city, Tao Ying thought about it, he couldn't transport it anyway, so it was better to burn it directly!

So Xu Sheng began to prepare to burn grain and grass again, and worked until dark, and Tao Ying stayed on the city wall all night. There were fires outside the city, but no one entered the city, and Tao Ying didn't dare to burn the grain and grass in vain, because what if his own reinforcements arrived?

So he struggled until dawn, the morning dew was a little cold, the darkness before dawn, time seemed to stand still, and by the night, Tao Ying, who was a little tired, couldn't help but lean on the city wall and fell asleep.

Xu Sheng walked up to the city wall and commanded the army to defend the city, and the soldiers took animal skins and put them on Tao Ying's body, but Tao Ying was still shivering from the cold. Although he was young and had always been active in the desert steppe in his previous life, it was not so cold at that time.

The sky was getting brighter, and with the dawn coming, the red sun in the eastern clouds slowly jumped up. The battlefield after the war was desolate, the charred corpses were still smoking, the broken weapons were stuck in the ground, and several ownerless war horses were also walking around looking for some grass to eat, and the air was filled with a smell of blood.

With the arrival of morning, Xu Sheng suddenly found that there were many more camps at the end of the morning fog, and the camps that were built overnight were a little incredible.

A tall flagpole was erected in the middle of the camp, and the black flag floated on the high flagpole, with a big and huge "Zang" character written on it!

The three places are the large camps of the Zang family's military horses, and there is also a small camp at the foot of the mountain far away, the camp seems to be a little simple, just a circle with trees, there are tents everywhere, the soldiers on patrol yawn in the early morning, and there is a large area behind the tent, where the black pressure is full of people.

Xu Sheng hurriedly woke up Tao Ying, who was still asleep, Tao Ying's face was covered with mud, and the gray Confucian robe was also shot through a hole by a bow and arrow, but fortunately he didn't hit himself.

"Lord, lord, look, our reinforcements are coming outside the city!"

As soon as he heard that the reinforcements were coming, Tao Ying woke up with a spirit, stood up and looked outside the city, and a team of people and horses came out of the camp outside the city to Pengcheng, and saw the "Zang" word flag, Tao Ying couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, is it really General Zang Ba is coming?

Did those old guys in Xiapi really let General Zang Ba come to their aid?

It's hard to believe, at the same time, there are also a few fast horses at the foot of the mountain, and the flag floating in the wind far away has the word "Chen" written on it, is it Chen Deng's military horse?

Tao Ying kept guessing, but he knew that there was no general surnamed Zang in Cao's army who could command so many military horses, and it must be Zang Ba, so Tao Ying hurriedly ordered the city gate to be opened and went to greet him in person!

Meeting with Tao Qian to pacify the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Xuzhou Taishan warlord Zang Ba, this is a very important thing in Tao Ying's heart, Tao Ying tidied up his clothes and hurried out of the city, and after Tao Ying went out of the city, Chen Deng also rode a horse to meet Zang Ba outside the city, and the two of them dismounted from a distance and let the entourage lead the horse over.

In order to show respect, Tao Ying also hurriedly dismounted and led the generals over.

The early morning wind was a little cool, and the autumn breeze blew coolly on Tao Ying's face, for some reason, Tao Ying couldn't help the excited tears, and two lines of tears flowed freely in the bleak autumn morning.

Chen Deng, who was far away, stood up and saluted Tao Ying, and as Chen Deng knelt down, Zang Ba also wanted to kneel slowly, but Tao Ying hurriedly ran over and helped the two up.

Helping Zang Ba up, he saw that Zang Ba was unusually burly, a head taller than himself, his face was full of beards, and his face was full of murder.

Tao Ying held back the surprise in his heart and hurriedly said: "Presumably this is General Xuangao, I have admired the name for a long time, and when I see it today, it is really a blessing for my three lives!" ”

Zang Ba also said: "Riding the capital captain Zang Ba to meet the son!" ”

As soon as he heard the Riding Captain, Tao Ying's face wrinkled, the Riding Captain was not a big official, obviously his father didn't pay attention to him at all in Xuzhou. But he still has a lot of soldiers and horses, because Zang Ba at this time is not reused by the history of Xuzhou, and he has begun to have some troops to build his own small hills.

What's more, when he recruited the Yellow Turban Army, he incorporated many Yellow Turban Army, so his power is still a little big. Tao Ying and Zang Ba exchanged pleasantries for a while, it was a little cold outside the city, and Tao Ying hurriedly invited the two and the generals to go to the city to talk.

More than a dozen people talked and laughed all the way into Pengcheng, Pengcheng after two battles, the city walls were damaged, and when they arrived in the city, the city was even more dilapidated, full of collapsed houses, and burned streets, not even a complete house could be found.

But fortunately, Tao Ying found a spacious mansion in Pengcheng, which was the house of a big family, and the family had relatives with Cao Cao to proudly preserve the mansion.

Finally met Zang Ba, whom he particularly admired, how could Tao Ying let go of this opportunity to recruit him under his command? So as soon as Zang Ba entered the city, Tao Ying asked people to kill pigs and sheep to entertain Zang Ba who came from afar, and even the soldiers he brought were rewarded, and this move quickly won over the low-level officials and soldiers under Zang Ba!

In the hall of the living room of the rich merchant's mansion, Tao Ying entertained dozens of generals who made meritorious contributions in the first battle of Pengcheng by the way, and in the hall that was not very wide, the pillars in the house were full of generals, Tao Ying sat on the top seat, and Chen Deng and Zang Ba sat on the left and right below.

Tao Ying also wanted to learn from the ancient literati to find some singers to help the fun, but unfortunately there was no woman in Pengcheng, even if there was, Tao Ying felt awkward, doing so was simply an insult to the dignity of the majority of female compatriots.

In this room, which is somewhat similar to the main hall, Tao Ying first toasted the generals, and Chen Deng got up and said: "Lord Taishou, today's victory over Cao Thief is really a great joy that I have not had in Xuzhou for decades!" The generals also followed the flattery, only Zang Ba's face was a little sullen.

Zang Ba suddenly slammed his fist on the table in front of him, the room quickly quieted down, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at Zang Ba, Zang Ba drank the wine in the wine glass and said: "It's a pity that the thief is forbidden, otherwise I would have pulled out his skin!" ”
