Three Kingdoms: Ten Times Speed, Diao Chan Says I'm Too Fast

Outside Lu Zhi's eastern camp, the sound of horses' hooves thundered.

More than a thousand riders galloped rapidly around the East Camp.

The billowing dust seemed to obscure the sky above the East Camp.

The soldiers in the camp were initially terrified, thinking that the Yellow Turban rebels had attacked.

However, after observing for a while, they discovered that the cavalry outside the camp were not Yellow Turban rebels.

Instead, it was a Han army that came from who-knows-where.

However, the soldiers soon saw battle flags embroidered with the character "Duan".

If it were a little over a year ago, almost no one would have recognized the origin of this battle flag.

But nowadays, not to mention everyone in the Han Dynasty, but among those who serve in the military, there should be no one who doesn't know this name.

Duan Yu, a tiger general of the world!

After realizing they weren't enemies, the soldiers in the camp, who had nothing else to do, began to curiously lie around the camp and look out through the surrounding fences.

Some soldiers were still pointing and commenting on the warhorses of the Liangzhou cavalry and the riders on them.

There are few horses in the Central Plains, especially few good horses.

An ordinary person might never see a decent horse in their entire life.

Liangzhou was not lacking in warhorses, nor in fine horses.

In particular, Duan Yu captured so many warhorses in several major battles against the Xianbei, Xiongnu, and Qiang tribes.

Therefore, the Liangzhou cavalry rode only the finest horses.

In the Central Plains region, this kind of horse costs anywhere from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of coins.

If it's sent to Yangzhou or Jingzhou, the price will increase further.

While observing the warhorses, the soldiers were also curious as to why the Liangzhou cavalry were circling their camp, as if it were a show of force.

However, not all soldiers in the army are unaware of the situation.

Some of the officers and rank in the army knew what had happened that night.

Not many people knew that Dong Zhuo was detained in the Dongda Camp.

However, the fact that Lu Zhi had annexed one of Dong Zhuo's troops could not be concealed.

Ordinary soldiers had no idea what was going on.

However, the captains and officers in charge of the troops all knew why.

Two generals of the same rank cannot merge their subordinates without a valid reason.

There can only be one reason why something like this could happen.

Either Dong Zhuo died in battle, or Dong Zhuo's military power was stripped away.

Obviously, the answer cannot be the first one.

The Yellow Turban rebels inside Guangzong City were unable to leave the city.

And they did not attack the city.

Dong Zhuo will not die in battle.

Then there's only the second possibility.

Dong Zhuo was deposed.

After Dong Zhuo was dismissed, the Liangzhou army suddenly came here to demonstrate.

What else could it be for?

Since Dong Zhuo was Duan Yu's father-in-law, Duan Yu naturally wanted to cause trouble.

The gates of the East Camp were opened.

Lu Zhi, clad in armor, took the lead.

Behind them were Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, all clad in armor, along with hundreds of cavalry.

Lu Zhi frowned, his face serious.

After leaving the camp, Lu Zhi ordered the soldiers on both sides of the camp gate to start beating drums.

The drums sounded, accompanied by the thunderous sound of horses' hooves that exploded in the air.

The Liangzhou cavalry surrounding the Eastern Camp gradually slowed down.

At this moment, Lü Bu, who had always been in the lead, stood out from the many cavalrymen.

He rode a jade dragon warhorse, held a halberd, wore a beast-face armor, and had a hundred-flower battle robe on his back.

As Lu Bu charged out, he pulled on the reins of the Jade Dragon, causing it to raise its front hooves high and let out a neigh like a dragon's roar.

Zhang Fei, who was following behind Lu Zhi, immediately raised an eyebrow in surprise and said, "Second Brother, this person is Duan Yu, right?"

"Look at him, he looks like a pretty boy, and he's riding a white horse."

"But this horse is quite nice."

Zhang Fei had never met Duan Yu, nor had Guan Yu.

Even Liu Bei had never seen it.

While Zhang Fei was speaking, Guan Yu's gaze was also on Lü Bu.

He squinted his phoenix eyes, gently stroking his beard with one hand, while holding the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in the other.

"Second Brother, do you think this kid is here to ask for his father-in-law?" Zhang Fei grinned and said, "If he dares to act recklessly later, I'll kick him off his horse. I think his white horse is perfect for our eldest brother."

Guan Yu's lips curled up slightly, and he said arrogantly, "Third brother is right."

Liu Bei followed closely behind Lu Zhi, glanced at the people behind him, and muttered about Zhang Fei and Guan Yu.

Lu Zhi looked at Lü Bu in the distance, his brows furrowed.

When Duan Yu went to Luoyang to receive his title last year, Lu Zhi met Duan Yu once.

Therefore, he could tell at a glance that the person in front of him was not Duan Yu.

But the flag being flown was Duan Yu's flag, indicating that the person in front of him was also one of Duan Yu's generals.

Judging from the number of cavalry around him, Lu Zhi deduced that what was in front of him should be Duan Yu's vanguard cavalry.

Since the vanguard cavalry is here, it means that Duan Yu is not far from here.

It came so quickly.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhi frowned at Lü Bu in the distance and said, "Who goes there and why are you making such a commotion in the camp!"

Lu Zhi did not know Lü Bu, and Lü Bu naturally did not know Lu Zhi either.

"I am Lü Bu, Lü Fengxian, the vanguard general under General Duan Yu, Governor of Liang Province and Marquis of Duting!"

Lu Bu arrogantly pointed his halberd at Lu Zhi and said, "You will quickly release my lord's father-in-law, the General of the Eastern Central Army, or don't blame me for not recognizing you with my halberd."

Huh?

When Lu Bu spoke, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were all taken aback. It wasn't Duan Yu.

"Lu Bu?"

Zhang Fei scratched his head and said, "Where did this birdman come from?"

Ahead, Lu Zhi, who heard Lü Bu's voice, was also taken aback.

Former General?

When was Duan Yu appointed as General of the Vanguard?

Lu Zhi knew about Duan Yu's previous appointment as General Who Destroys the Qiang.

When did this former general come into the picture?

Despite his doubts, Lu Zhi did not believe that Lü Bu was talking nonsense.

You can't just make things up about impersonation like that.

"Insolence!" Lu Zhi said in a low voice, "How dare you, a vanguard general, interfere with the imperial decree?"

"If you continue to act recklessly like this, I will definitely submit a memorial to impeach you, and even Duan Yu will not be able to protect you then!"

"If you know what's good for you, leave quickly, and I'll pretend this never happened," Lu Zhi said with a dark face.

"besides."

"I advise you and your lord not to make a mistake."

Recalling what Dong Zhuo said that night, Lu Zhi still felt a bit guilty.

After all, his initial petition to the court was simply to get the court to order Dong Zhuo to send troops to attack Guangzong.

Unexpectedly, the imperial court issued an edict ordering Dong Zhuo to be brought to Luoyang in a prison cart.

At first, Lu Zhi didn't think too much about it.

Lu Zhi only realized this belatedly when Dong Zhuo revealed that someone in the court wanted to target Duan Yu.

But now that things have come to this point, Lu Zhi has no choice.

"General, there's no need to say more. The more you say at this time, the more passive you'll become. Just focus on your performance." Cheng Lian reminded Lü Bu, "General, just remember that you don't know any imperial edict, you just heard what a few soldiers said."

"They thought Lu Zhi had betrayed them and imprisoned Dong Gong."

"As long as you stick to this point, everything will be fine."

Upon hearing this, Lü Bu hardened his heart and glared.

Then came a loud roar.

"You traitors and rebels, I can see that you are clearly trying to betray the court and imprison its officials!"

"Release General Dongzhong immediately, or I, Lü Bu, will raze this camp to the ground today!"

"drink!"

With that, Lü Bu spurred his horse and charged rapidly toward Lu Zhi.

"Get out of my way!"

"Big brother!"

"Brother!"

Zhang Fei, wielding a long spear, and Guan Yu, wielding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade, were born at the same time.

"Second brother, third brother, protect Lu Shi!" Liu Bei roared!
