In an unknown town outside Pengcheng, the clouds of war are condensing in the sky, more and more people are gathering here, and the arrival of the Yanzhou general is banned, which makes this ancient city filled with wordless terror.

Tao Ying was a little distraught pacing in the camp, he had already written to Xiapi again to ask Xiapi City to send Zang Ba to aid the Tancheng battlefield, and he didn't know if Xiapi could send Zang Ba to come.

The scouts in front kept sending news, and after two major battles in Pengcheng ahead, Xu Sheng's soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses. Yu Ban personally supervised the battle of Pengcheng, if Tao Ying did not send troops again, I am afraid that Xu Sheng would spill Pengcheng's blood.

And Xiaopei Chen Deng also came with news that there was an elite army of Cao Jun outside the city, and he was defeated in several battles with it, and he could not join forces with it to besiege Pengcheng.

Holding a letter asking for help, Tao Ying was even more worried that he couldn't eat, this Yu Ban defeated him Lao Tzu here once, is he going to defeat himself again now? In the same place, the Tao family must not fall down twice, otherwise, the hearts of the people in Xuzhou will collapse. But fortunately, Yu Ban did not send troops to attack him, and he was barely safe.

After nearly a week of continuous rest in a small town, this week was the hardest week Tao Ying had ever crossed. Tao Ying counted the days day by day, and from the beginning of the army to now, it seems that it is late autumn.

According to historical records, Cao Cao would not be able to withdraw until after the Chinese New Year, so he had no way of knowing what happened before that. Tao Ying, who was about to shrink back, finally decided to fight to the death after receiving a blood letter.

Peng Cheng struggled to support it for three weeks, and the 5,000 men and horses brought by Xu Sheng had lost nearly half. And Yu Ban led the army to attack the city very urgently, and the panic in the city was no longer enough to support it, so Xu Sheng was ready to burn the grain and grass and then attack with the whole army, swearing to fight to the death with Yu Ban!

After getting the letter, all the generals advised Tao Ying to withdraw his troops and return to defend Tancheng. Because now that Yu Ban, the vanguard of the Cao army, has led his troops to attack Pengcheng, then Tancheng must be empty, and he should take this opportunity to join Liu Bei and them together.

Autumn is coming, especially at night. The cold wind was blowing, and the leaves were scattered everywhere. Tao Ying stood alone in the moonlight, thinking about something, and behind him there were nearly 5,000 soldiers and horses ready to go.

The night was getting thicker and thicker, and Peng Cheng must have fallen into a deep sleep.

On the one hand, the safety of an unknown young general, and on the other hand, his own safety. Even Chen Deng sent a letter to advise Tao Ying to abandon Pengcheng and retreat to Tancheng, after all, the lord could not risk his life for an unknown chess piece. But in the night, Tao Ying waved his hand, and five thousand Xuzhou soldiers slowly marched towards Pengcheng. He knew that in his camp without a general, the young Xu Sheng was more precious than gold!

Taking advantage of the moonlight, the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou did not raise torches, nor did they have cavalry, so they marched towards Pengcheng, they knew that they would definitely be more auspicious in this battle!

Almost to the third watch ten, Tao Ying led the troops to the outskirts of Pengcheng, through the foot of a mountain, looking at Pengcheng from afar, there are some torches on the Peng city wall, under the sparse firelight, the Pengcheng city wall is somewhat dilapidated.

Looking further away, in the dark night, there were some pieces of firelight on the field on the sky, and if you counted them carefully, there were nearly five large camps stationed there, and Tao Ying knew that it was Cao Jun's camp.

At the foot of the mountain, Tao Ying ordered the whole army to rest, and all the generals advised Tao Ying to take the opportunity to quickly break through the Cao camp blocking the army and then enter the city! Tao Ying was a little hesitant, because he hadn't agreed in advance, he rushed to the city, Xu Sheng would definitely mistake himself for Cao Jun's, and besides, he didn't know how many soldiers and horses there were in the camp closest to him.

Time passed little by little, and in a blink of an eye, it was the fifth watch. The fifth watch in Pengcheng was not yet dawn, but it was even darker before dawn. Tao Ying, who led the troops alone for the first time, ordered the whole army to attack at this time!

Suddenly, in the night, torches were raised, and a fire dragon instantly appeared in the night, Cao Jun seemed to be a little caught off guard, but after discovering the arrival of this military horse, a burst of drumming sounded, and Cao Jiang also began to organize people and horses to counterattack in an orderly manner.

In the night, there were more and more torches, and the drums were getting louder and louder, and Tao Ying led the military horses all the way to Pengcheng to kill. The soldiers on the wall of Pengcheng saw a military horse and hurriedly went to tell Xu Sheng, after a day of bloody fighting, Xu Sheng's armor was stained with blood, and the young Xu Sheng was resting on the corner of the city wall at this time.

Hearing the shouting, Xu Sheng woke up with a spirit, grabbed the big knife beside him and ran towards the city wall. When he ran to the city wall, the firelight in the distance had already gathered together, and the shouts of killing came one after another, and the soldiers and horses of the four battalions of Cao Ying all gathered in one place, and finally suddenly a dark corner on the slope of the mountain also lit torches.

After the torches on the mountainside were lit, Xu Sheng found out that it was actually the fifth camp in Yu Ban! It seems that Yu Ban had already calculated that Tao Ying would come to die, and deliberately buried such a group of soldiers and horses in a dark place, and when Tao Ying led the troops to kill outside Peng City, they quickly sent troops to cut off Tao Ying's escape route!

Xu Sheng rushed to the city wall and looked in the direction where the reinforcements were coming and shouted: "Alas, the lord is so confused! This fell into Yu Ban's scheme, who gave the lord a plan, it's damn good! ”

Hearing that Tao Ying was desperate to save Pengcheng, the Pengcheng army and horses in despair boiled, although the infantry suffered heavy losses, but Xu Sheng's cavalry had not lost a single person, he put all his hopes on the cavalry!

The deputy general looked at Tao Yingjun, who was in a bitter battle with Cao Jun, and hurriedly asked Xu Sheng to send troops to rescue him, and Xu Sheng looked at Chen Mo who was caught in the lights in the distance for a while.

On the outskirts of Pengcheng, Tao Yingbing attacked a camp in three ways, and the first army just charged to the Cao army camp before it encountered the flanking attack of Yu Ban's elite troops, and for a time a thousand military horses fell into the encirclement.

The second army was attacked by two other battalions of horses, and it was impossible to see how many men and horses there were in the night. However, the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou were still afraid of the Cao army in their hearts, so before dawn, the main generals of the two armies and horses were beheaded by the Cao army, and the remaining soldiers and horses scattered and fled.

Countless routs swarmed towards Pengcheng, and the day gradually brightened, and the Cao army did not find Tao Ying's banner when chasing the rout army everywhere, so he abandoned the rout and went to attack Tao Ying's last line of soldiers and horses.

The last army horse supported Tao Ying and wanted to retreat, but at this time it was already dawn, and he had just retreated less than five miles before he encountered a Cao army, and the person headed by him was the vanguard of the Cao army, Yu Ban!

In the midst of the chaos, Tao Yingyu who was wearing a general's robe was seen in the forbidden army and killed Tao Ying without saying a word, and the deputy general next to Tao Ying hurriedly rode out to fight, but was beheaded by Yu Ban under the horse in less than a round!

Tao Ying grew up in surprise, the ancients practiced martial arts, he knew but never dared to believe that martial arts could be so powerful, it was just that the war horses were staggered, and Yu Ban beheaded his deputy general with one sword!

The deputy general was killed, and Tao Ying also panicked and walked back.

As soon as Tao Ying withdrew, the Xuzhou soldiers scattered in all directions.

As the saying goes, these have turned into a one-sided battle. Tao Ying led the rout and killed in the direction of Pengcheng.
