Zhang Yan's subordinates cleaned the blood stains at the gate of the city, dragged all the corpses outside the city and buried them, then hid all the soldiers and horses in the county town, quietly waiting for Yu Jin's arrival.

Two quarters of an hour later, Yu Jin led his men to the outside of Gaoping County. He saw the lights on the city wall flickering on and off, a large flag with the word "Cao" floating in the air, and a few scattered Cao soldiers patrolling the tower. Go and call the door.

"The captain who is in the battle is here, open the city gate quickly!" The person who called the door shouted loudly towards the tower.

The patrolling soldiers on the tower pretended to look outside the city, then turned around and shouted, "Open the city gate and let Captain Yu enter the city!"

After a while, the city gate slowly opened, and Yu Jin rode his horse forward, leading his subordinates to enter the city.

He inadvertently glanced at the Cao soldiers guarding the city gate, and only then noticed that these Cao soldiers were all burly and tall, but the Cao soldiers' uniforms they wore were obviously a bit small.

In his impression, the guards in charge of the city gate were all scrawny people, and they were too old, but now they turned into a strong young man.

He hastily reined in his horse, and saw more than 30 soldiers faintly lined up in the opening of the city gate, but the road facing the city gate was pitch black, and there was no light in the city.

At the same time, a faint smell of blood came to his nose, and he carefully looked at the feet of these gatekeepers, but saw that the shoes on their feet were stained with blood.

He frowned, but also kept an eye out, and shouted at Cao Bing guarding the gate: "Hey! What's the password tonight?"

That Cao Bing was stunned for a moment by Yu Jin's question, and he hesitated to answer.

"There are frauds in the city, retreat quickly!" Yu Jin suddenly turned his horse's head and shouted at his subordinates, and he himself even galloped away from the city gate in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Yan, who was hiding in the city gate, saw that Yu Jin had seen through his plot, and ordered the archers on the tower to shoot arrows, while he himself rushed out of the city gate with his cavalry, shouting: "Whoever is captured alive by the ban will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold!" !"

Yu Jin's subordinates rushed all the way back from Guangqi County. They were exhausted. They thought they could go to the city to rest for a while, but they never expected that Gaoping County had already been captured by Xuzhou soldiers.

Xuzhou soldiers on the city wall began to shoot arrows, and the dense arrows shot towards Cao soldiers outside the city from the darkness like it was raining.

These Cao soldiers didn't react for a while, and they were shot a lot. They were either killed by an arrow or injured, and they screamed for a while.

Zhang Yan single-handedly rushed out of the city, followed by infantry, his horse was fast, and soon left the infantry behind, and rushed into Cao Bing's camp alone, wherever the iron spear went, Cao Bing can't stop them all.

"boom!"

The school swordsman behind Zhang Yan also rushed over quickly, using the shield in his hand, directly collided with Cao Bing, made a loud noise, and directly fought with Cao Bing.

Yu Jin left the vicinity of the city gate first, and ran to the back of the team in a short time. Then he reined in the horse and turned the horse's head.

He suddenly saw that Zhang Yan was single-handedly rampaging through Cao Bing's camp with extraordinary bravery. Although he was surrounded, he managed to get out of the ground, and no one dared to approach him at a distance of Zhang Xu.

He tightly held the iron spear in his hand, frowned, and immediately gathered the cavalry around him, ready to rush over and capture Zhang Yan.

With a loud shout of "drive", Yu Jin rode his horse forward, took the lead, and rushed towards Zhang Yan with more than a hundred cavalry who had just assembled.

"Get out of the way for me!"

Yu Jin yelled violently, his voice was like thunder, Cao Bing in front of him gave way to Yu Jin one after another, and when he was about to rush in front of Zhang Yan, he raised his iron spear and stabbed at Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan picked and killed a Cao soldier who came to attack. Seeing Yu Jingong coming, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He swung his iron gun and swept away Yu Jingong's iron gun with all his strength, and let out a buzzing sound.

Yu Jin fought against Zhang Yan for the first time. He never expected that Zhang Yan would be so powerful. If he hadn't held the iron gun tightly with both hands, he would have been almost knocked away by Zhang Yan. The iron guns came in a steady stream, which made his hands hurt.

"Captain Yu, hello!"

Zhang Yan's voice suddenly sounded in Yu Jin's ear, and the blood-stained red tip of the spear stabbed directly at his throat.He hastily raised his iron gun to block, and began to wrestle with Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan and Yu Jin raised their guns at the same time, the sound of weapons colliding continued to resound, and some sparks would splash out from time to time, the fierce battle continued.

When the two were fighting fiercely, the cavalry under Yu Jin began to charge over. Xuzhou's soldiers suffered a little loss because they did not have cavalry, but with the compensation of the archers on the city wall, they basically entered a stalemate.

At this time, Mi Fang rode a war horse and led more than a thousand spearmen galloping from the side, formed a formation, and launched an attack on Cao Jun's cavalry.

Rows of spears were densely packed like a forest. The spearmen waved their spears and stabbed the cavalry in the distance one by one. For a while, more than half of the cavalry of Cao Jun were killed or injured, and they dared not approach the spear formation any more. After retreating.

However, under Mi Fang's command, the spear array did not intend to stop at all. Instead, they continued to attack forward. With the cooperation of the archers on the city wall and the cover of the school swordsmen, they formally attacked with their special spears. Cao Jun's infantry attacked.

Cao Jun's infantry was far more dexterous than the cavalry. The archers changed direction and started shooting towards the spear array, while the rest of the soldiers lowered their bodies to avoid the forest of spears and rushed directly towards the spear array.

At this time, the school swordsman among the Xuzhou soldiers appeared in time, squatting on the ground, holding a shield to block Cao Bing's attack, but slashed with the weapon in the other hand, effectively blocking Cao Bing and the spearman. melee.

However, the arrows of Cao Jun's archers could not be dodged, and more than a dozen spearmen were killed one after another, and their positions were quickly supplemented by those in the rear.

Mi Fang even divided the dense array of spears into two, one part attacked from the left and the other from the right. They both held five-meter-long spears and rushed towards Cao Jun. After stabbing the enemy to death, they discarded the spears and pulled out Draw out the short blade worn in the waist, and engage in close combat with Cao Bing.

Yu Jin was still fighting Zhang Yan fiercely, but he was very passive. He was always on the defensive stage, blocking Zhang Yan's attack, but he was powerless to fight back.

After fighting Zhang Yan for more than a dozen rounds, he knew that he was not Zhang Yan's opponent, and with Zhang Yan's force, it was not impossible to stab or capture him. After the fight, Zhang Yan never killed him, as if he was holding himself back on purpose.

He glanced at the subordinates around him. More than half of the cavalry were killed and injured, and they had already been frightened by the spear array and lost their courage. Although the infantry was still fighting fiercely with the Xuzhou soldiers, they were still in decline, and the Xuzhou soldiers were still on the move. Out of the city, trying to surround them all.

He frowned, and felt even more anxious. If this continues, within half an hour, his entire army may be wiped out.

Xuzhou soldiers suddenly occupied Gaoping City, which surprised him, and what surprised him even more was that he didn't expect Zhang Yan to appear here.

He used a little trick in Guangqi County to repel Zhang Yan, but he came back far ahead of Zhang Yan, and he didn't stop along the way. Why did Zhang Yan arrive at Gaoping County before him?

He glanced at the war horse under Zhang Yan's seat, and saw that the horse was extraordinary, so he guessed that the horse was a thousand-mile horse. Other than that, he couldn't think of any answer that could relieve his doubts.

In addition, he also noticed that the troops under Zhang Yan's command this time were all infantry, which also proved that these infantry were ambushed by Zhang Yan in advance, and when Cao Ren and Le Jin came back, they began to attack. In the end, Cao Ren and Le Jin were captured together.

Just when Yu Jin was thinking hard, there was a sound of horseshoes in the darkness, and the ground trembled.

After Zhang Yan heard this voice, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he shouted at Yu Jin: "Lieutenant Yu, my reinforcements have arrived, and you can't escape this time. I see that you are quite talented. I can't bear to kill you, it's a pity that you followed Cao Cao, you might as well submit to me, I promise to make your name famous all over the world!"

Yu Jin snorted coldly, took advantage of Zhang Yan's triumph, saw the opportunity, and suddenly changed his marksmanship from defense to offense, stabbing Zhang Yan's heart with a single shot.

Zhang Yan was careless for a while, and hurriedly returned his spear to block, but Yu Jin's spear tip just reached his chest, and he quickly drew it back.He was taken aback, and hurriedly looked up, and Yu Jin turned his horse's head around and fled towards the crowd.

Zhang Yan chuckled and said in his heart: "This Yu Jin, I didn't expect to be so cunning."

He immediately rode his horse in pursuit, waved his iron spear, and killed several Cao soldiers who were blocking the way one after another.

While running away, Yu Jin looked back from time to time, and when he saw Zhang Yan chasing him, he shouted loudly: "Stop him quickly! Block him!"

The soldiers under him rushed forward one after another, blocking Zhang Yan's way, and Yu Jin was able to separate from Zhang Yan.He rode his horse to the cavalry, looked around the battlefield, and saw that the northeast corner was not yet surrounded by Xuzhou soldiers, so he took only two hundred cavalry and headed towards the northeast to kill.

Yu Jin took the lead and took the lead, and the cavalry behind him were also all brave. In addition, there was no spear array in this area, so he rushed out a bloody road very quickly.

At the same time, Xu Sheng and Chen Ying arrived one after another with their cavalry. Seeing Xuzhou soldiers fighting Cao Bing, they immediately joined the battle circle without saying a word.

The arrival of the cavalry immediately plunged Cao Bing into a desperate situation. The spearmen withdrew to the surroundings. The archers stopped shooting arrows for fear of hurting their own people. Kill Cao Bing.

Zhang Yan killed all the Cao soldiers around him. When he looked around, there was no trace of Yu Jin on the battlefield. In his anger, he ordered to kill all the Cao soldiers.

A quarter of an hour later, the battle at the gate of Gaoping County was completely over. Except for Yu Jin and the two hundred cavalry, Cao's army was wiped out.

After the war, Zhang Yan put Mi Fang in charge of cleaning the battlefield and counting the number of enemies killed and those injured.

Half an hour later, Mi Fang reported a set of numbers to Zhang Yan. In this battle, more than 300 enemies were killed, more than 300 were killed in the army, and more than [-] were injured.

Zhang Yan was quite satisfied with this number. He ordered all the soldiers to rest in Gaoping County, and ordered Cao Ren to be strictly guarded for future use.
