In Puban County, Xu Fan was still in the county government office, eating breakfast and drinking some wine, living a very happy life.

Suddenly a soldier ran in, "General, there is an enemy attack in Pubanjin, and Sun Sima is defeated. Send someone for help."

"What?" Xu Fan was shocked at first, but he calmed down immediately, "How many people are there in the enemy army, no less than a thousand!"

"Come here," said Sun Kang, who had thousands of people, came to ask for help so soon. Seeing that there were a lot of enemy troops, he immediately recruited soldiers on guard and ordered them to call all the generals to follow him out of the city to rescue Pubanjin.

The most important thing in Puban City is Pubanjin. Once Pubanjin is lost, the enemy can easily cross the Yellow River.

After a stick of incense, Xu Fan gathered more than a thousand people. He didn't dare to wait any longer, so he led the thousand people and hurried to Pubanjin.

The county seat is only a few miles away from Pubanjin, more than a thousand people marched quickly, and they arrived within the time of two cups of tea.

Then, Xu Fan found that the Pubanjin Barracks was quiet, and the sound of fighting seemed to have stopped.

This is even worse.

Xu Fan led his army to the outside of the Pubanjin barracks, only then did he see that the soldiers outside the gate were not his own.

At this moment, why didn't he understand that the barracks had been captured by the enemy.

"Who is coming?"

"Yizhou Mu's vanguard army." Su Cheng stood under the gate and replied loudly.

Sure enough, the only one who can attack Pubanjin is Liu Zhang in Guanzhong. If it is Li Jue and Guo Si, they should cross from Fengling.

Xu Fan asked again: "Where is Sun Kang?"

"He has been beheaded by our troops, but the general who will come is Puban guard Xu Fan?" Su Cheng asked back.

"It's the general. Why don't you surrender after listening to my name?" Xu Fan asked.

"Hahaha!" Before Su Cheng could answer, there were several laughs from behind him, followed by the sound of footsteps.

Gan Ning finally brought people over.

"Xu Fan's name is nothing more than mediocre, but have you heard of the name of Berkshire Gan Ning?"

"Nobody, never heard of it!"

Gan Ning saw that the other party underestimated him, but he was not angry at all, he had not been out of Yizhou in the first half of his life, so it is normal that the world does not know his name.

"Xu Fan, Pubanjin has been captured by me, and Sun Kang was also beheaded by me. If you want to take back Pubanjin, it is not impossible, but you have to promise me one condition!"

Xu Fan subconsciously said, "What condition?"

"You and I are singled out. If you win, I will give up Pubanjin. If I win, you will surrender!" Gan Ning's face was full of confidence.

Xu Fan lowered his head and thought, if he won, it would be good to take back Pubanjin without bloodshed. If he lost, he would lose his life, so naturally he would not have to worry about Pubanjin.

"Okay, I agree to your terms."

Seeing that the enemy general agreed, Gan Ning put his legs on the horse's belly and walked out of the barracks slowly. The double halberds in his hand had been replaced with a long knife.

"Drink and drink!"

Soldiers on both sides began to cheer for their generals.

Xu Fan's crotch is a Xiliang good horse, and his hand is also a long knife, which looks somewhat similar to the one in Gan Ning's hand.

The two rode their horses and looked at each other with a distance of more than ten feet. Both of them were staring at each other, trying to find out the other's strength.

As the momentum of the two sides reached its peak, the two of them rode their horses to charge at the same time. The long knives in their hands were similar, but the postures of holding the knives were different.

But for a moment, the two horses missed each other.

"when!"

The two knives collided, and then the sound of falling horses was heard.

Only then did everyone see clearly that Xu Fan's body had already fallen to the ground.

It turned out that when the two horses crossed each other just now, after Gan Ning swung Xu Fan's long sword away, he immediately cut off Xu Fan's neck again.

The thousands of Xiliang troops brought by Xu Fan were shocked. They never thought that their general would not be able to resist the opponent for a single round.

Gan Ning didn't expect to kill the enemy general, and the enemy would surrender. He waved his sword and shouted loudly, "Kill!"

The soldiers who left the camp immediately swarmed out upon hearing the order, and rushed to kill the Xiliang army in front.

Gan Ning's beheading of two generals of the enemy army has already made his soldiers full of confidence, and their morale has greatly increased.

On the other hand, on the side of the Xiliang army, the general was killed, and morale dropped a lot, but the generals and military marquises below reacted in time, and they immediately organized their subordinates to resist.

Gan Ning made two meritorious deeds in one day, and he was in a good mood. He led more than a hundred cavalrymen and rushed back and forth, but within a short time, the thousand Xiliang troops brought by Xu Fan couldn't resist and began to flee.

Gan Ning ordered Su Cheng to stay here and continue to fight, while he himself rushed to Puban County with hundreds of people, and he still wanted to take down Puban County today.

However, Puban County was too close to Pubanjin, and the city had already prepared for it. When Gan Ning came with troops, the gates of the county had already been closed.

Although there were only [-] defenders in the city, they were not something that Gan Ning and his hundreds could capture.

In desperation, Gan Ning could only walk around the city, taking note of the surrounding terrain of Puban County, before leaving.

After resting overnight, Gan Ning left a thousand men to guard Pubanjin, and he led 2000 men to Puban County, which he was going to capture today.

After arriving at the county seat, the city gate was still closed, and persuading him to surrender was fruitless, so he could only order people to make a long ladder and prepare to storm the county seat.

"Hahahaha!" Zhang Jie laughed while holding the battle report in his hand.

The generals were puzzled, and asked why, Zhang Jie looked around the generals, and said with a smile: "Sima Gan Ning has captured Pubanjin, wiped out the reinforcements in Puban County, killed the enemy generals Sun Kang and Xu Fan, and Puban City is gone. No matter how many enemy troops there are, I believe he will be able to take Puban County within a few days."

"Great, General, we should cross the river immediately and reinforce Gan Sima." All the generals suggested one after another.

"Yes, there are still 7000 people in Linjin, and another 3000 people will be sent to cross the river." Zhang Jie thought for a while, and ordered three other Sima, "You three must guard Pubanjin, and the Lord's army will be able to cross the river tomorrow!"

The three other Sima who were ordered were all very happy, and immediately went down to prepare to send troops to cross the river.

Thirty miles away from Linjin, a long procession was marching along the official road. They were divided into several sections, each section separated by tens of feet.

Suddenly, a cavalry rushed over and shouted loudly: "I am the messenger of Linjin, where is my lord?"

"Behind!"

The cavalry rode forward again, and after a while, he finally found a chariot, on which was Liu Zhang.

"My lord, Linjin battle report!"

The cavalry handed over the bamboo slip in his arms, and a guard next to the chariot took it and handed it into the chariot.

"Okay, Gan Xingba is really brave, he beheaded two enemy generals in one battle." Excited, Liu Zhang ordered the army to speed up and must reach Linjin tonight.

On the official road, in addition to Liu Zhang's [-] troops, there are also a large number of civilians who are transporting food, grass and equipment to Linjin.

Although 30 stones of food and grass have been hoarded in Linjin City, it is far from enough for an army of [-].

Because of the transportation of civilian husbands, the marching speed of Liu Zhang's army was much faster.

Sure enough, they arrived in Linjin that night. Zhang Jie had already prepared the barracks and pitched the tents, and Liu Zhang's army slept comfortably.
