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

Blood stained the city wall in front of Wang Hunu.

Yuan Shu stared wide-eyed at Wang Hunu, who was kneeling on the ground with his hands bound, and then looked at the blood-stained longsword in his hand.

Ji Ling, standing behind Yuan Shu, immediately felt a chill run down his spine.

Okay, that's all!

This is a huge mess!

died.

Although Wang Hunu committed suicide, however...

Duan Yu will definitely hold Yuan Shu accountable for this.

And he... probably can't escape either.

Fan Xian and Wei Xun were both stunned when they saw this scene.

No one expected that Wang Hunu would commit suicide.

Under the city.

Iron Stone's eyes looked as if they were stained with blood.

Memories of the past flooded my mind like a tidal wave.

We used to play together in the mountains of Xiangting when we were children.

When they were a little older, they got into trouble together in the village pavilion and were punished.

We share anything that tastes good.

A group of friends who don't get a new piece of clothing for a whole year always have happy smiles on their faces every day.

After joining Duan Yu's side, they fought side by side on the battlefield, entrusting each other with their backs without reservation.

Time and again, they shielded the enemy from both open and covert attacks.

Although they are not blood brothers, they are better than blood brothers.

"puff!"

Iron Stone, riding on his horse, pressed his hand hard against his chest, which was throbbing with pain, and vomited a mouthful of blood that sprayed into the air as a blood mist.

In the instant his body swayed, Tie Shitou nearly fell off his warhorse.

"Yuan Shu..."

Iron Stone gritted his teeth.

Those blood-red pupils were fixed on Yuan Shu and his men on the city wall.

He witnessed his brothers, who had been together since childhood and fought side by side as adults, being captured while protecting their wives and children.

He witnessed his brother commit suicide to avoid putting him in a difficult position and being blackmailed by Yuan Shu.

An unprecedented, overwhelming hatred filled Tie Shitou's eyes.

"Yuan Shu, I swear on my life, even if it costs me my last drop of blood, I will slaughter your entire clan to avenge my brothers!"

"Yuan Shu, I swear!" Tie Shitou roared at Yuan Shu on the city wall.

"Humph!"

Yuan Shu, standing atop the city wall, snorted disdainfully.

Then, glancing disdainfully at the iron stone below the city, he said, "You lowly commoner, how dare you utter the name of the Yuan family?"

"So what if I'm dead? What can you do to me?"

"If you dare, come and attack the city. I'll send you and your useless brother on your way."

Despite his anger, Tie Shitou did not lose his temper.

Anyi was the seat of Hedong Commandery.

Behind the high city walls.

At this time, the Tiger Legion was still defending the city, and with his two thousand soldiers, it was impossible for him to capture Anyi.

Although he couldn't conquer Anyi, he could block it. As long as Yuan Shu was trapped there, he could avenge this grudge.

Because Tie Shitou believed that as long as their elder brother Duan Yu knew about this news, he would definitely come to avenge Wang Hunu.

"Yuan Shu, you just wait, just you wait!"

Tie Shitou gritted his teeth and said, "You just stay in the city and wash your neck clean, you will definitely die, you definitely will!"

As Tie Shitou spoke, the infantry of the Liangzhou army behind him were already rushing toward the defense line of Anyi.

Wang Erhu arrived late with a group of Liangzhou infantrymen.

"Brother Stone, where's my brother?" Wang Erhu asked after approaching Tie Shitou.

Tie Shitou felt extremely ashamed.

"Erhu... I'm sorry to Hunu, he... he... is dead." Tieshitou forced back his tears.

Wang Erhu, who was standing still, was dumbfounded.

The weapon in his hand clattered to the ground.

Then he collapsed completely.

"elder brother......"

"elder brother......"

Tie Shitou dismounted from his warhorse and helped Wang Erhu up from the ground.

"Erhu, your brother died protecting my wife and children. I will not let him die in vain. Everyone in this city will be buried with your brother."

“From now on, my son will be your brother’s son, and he will change his surname to Wang.”

"From now on, I will be your older brother."

"Your parents are my parents."

"I swear, I will avenge the tiger slave. If I fail, may heaven and earth condemn me!"

Wang Erhu looked at Tie Shitou, sobbing uncontrollably.

Tie Shitou helped Wang Erhu up, then ordered the army in front of him: "Tie Ming, Tie Cheng, each of you take five hundred men and station them in the west and east of the city. Do not let anyone who leaves the city escape."

"Erhu, take five hundred soldiers to the North Gate. We absolutely cannot let them escape."

"I request to lead 500 soldiers to guard the south gate, so that the four gates can be coordinated from a distance."

“Although we cannot take Anyi, once the Lord’s army arrives, they will have no chance of escape!” Tie Shitou said.

Wang Erhu and Tie Shitou's subordinates immediately led their troops to seal off the gate.

Yuan Shu, who was on the city wall, obviously noticed this scene as well.

"What are they planning to do?" Yuan Shu asked, frowning. "Could it be that they really intend to attack the city?"

Fan Xian shook his head and said, "General, with their troops, they can't possibly take Anyi. We don't need to worry about them attacking the city."

"I think they seem to be trying to trap the general inside the city."

"Although they can't take Anyi, as long as they block all four gates of Anyi, the general won't be able to get out."

Can't get out?

Yuan Shu said with disdain, "A few lowly commoners dare to oppose the Yuan family. Let alone them, even their master Duan Yu used to wag his tail and beg for mercy at the gate of the Yuan mansion like a dog."

"Now that you've grown wings, you think you can rival the Yuan family?"

"Blocking the gate? Do you think I'm afraid of them blocking the gate?"

"Guards! Hang this lowly commoner's corpse on the city wall as a warning to others. I want to see what they can do to me!"

Yuan Shu pointed at Wang Hunu's corpse.

The soldiers immediately stepped forward, tied Wang Hunu's body with ropes, and then tied the ropes to the battlements, hanging Wang Hunu's body above the south gate.

Fan Xian was interrupted by Yuan Shu before he could finish speaking.

After Yuan Shu finished speaking, Fan Xian added, "General, I think... this man must have another plan in mind for blocking you in the city."

"He will probably send someone to request reinforcements and then wait for them to arrive."

Yuan Shu frowned.

Reinforcements?

"Where will the reinforcements come from?" Yuan Shu asked, frowning. "Duan Yu is currently in the Western Regions. Even if the Liangzhou army returns from the Western Regions, it will take at least a month."

"Besides, even if Duan Yu comes back, what difference will it make?"

"He committed suicide. So many people saw it. It wasn't me who killed him."

"Does Duan Yu dare to kill me?"

"He wouldn't dare even if you gave him a thousand lives. If he did, it would be treason!"

"Besides, would this lowly commoner even ask for help?"

"This is the Sili Commandery. With just a letter from me, tens of thousands of troops will come."

"Ji Ling".

As he spoke, Yuan Shu thought of Ji Ling again.

Ji Ling felt a buzzing in her head.

But they couldn't refuse.

So he had no choice but to bite the bullet and take a step forward.

"Your subordinate is here," Ji Ling said, bowing.

Without turning his head, Yuan Shu looked at the Liangzhou army that was setting up defenses below the city and said, "After nightfall, you will lead your men down the city wall and then return to Luoyang."

"They said that Duan Yu's men were plotting a rebellion, and that they had trapped me in Anyi, and sent a message to my uncle."

Upon hearing this order, Ji Ling's eyebrows shot up instantly.

This job is alright.

At least we don't have to stay in the city anymore.

Ji Ling immediately nodded: "This subordinate obeys the order."

............

Time flies, and several days have passed.

Ji Ling, who had traveled swiftly from Anyi back to Luoyang without stopping, arrived at the residence of Yuan Wei, the Grand Commandant.

Compared to when she left Luoyang to receive her orders, Ji Ling looked noticeably thinner.

At this moment, Ji Ling was standing at the entrance of Yuan Wei's study.

Yuan Wei, on the other hand, sat behind his desk.

Yuan Ji knelt down to Yuan Kui's left.

Yuan Wei and Yuan Ji listened without saying a word as Ji Ling recounted in detail everything that had happened since they set off from Luoyang.

From how to pursue Duan Liuqing.

After discovering that Duan Liuqing was a bait, Duan Liuqing threw himself into the river.

After entering the city, they captured Tie Shitou and Wang Hunu. Then Wang Hunu committed suicide, and Tie Shitou led his troops to surround Anyi.

"Grand Tutor, this humble general has returned to seek reinforcements on the orders of the General," Ji Ling said, bowing respectfully.

After hearing the whole story, Yuan Wei frowned.

The aura emanating from him, a result of his long-term high position, made Ji Ling feel a sense of unease.

"idiot!"

Yuan Wei's low shout startled Ji Ling so much that she fell to her knees with a thud.

"This humble general...this humble general is foolish, this humble general..."

"Get up." Yuan Wei looked up at Ji Ling and said, "I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about that idiot."

Ji Ling looked up at Yuan Wei with a bewildered expression.

"How could the Yuan family produce such a fool!" Yuan Wei said in a gloomy tone, "He was used and he's still gloating. The younger generation of the Fan family is clearly taking advantage of this fool."

"Duan Yu's troops occupied the salt ponds in Hedong County, cutting off the financial resources of the gentry and powerful families in Hedong County."

"Which idiot named Fan Xian used this fool to try and pull out Duan Yu's men?"

"He can't even see through such a simple trick!"

"Now that Duan Yu's men are dead, do you think he'll let this go?"

Yuan Wei's eyes, which were like those of an old fox, narrowed into slits.

Ji Ling suddenly realized.

“Uncle, although the highway is being used, we can’t just stand by and do nothing.” Yuan Ji hesitated for a moment before saying, “We can’t just stand by and do nothing.”

Yuan Wei took a deep breath.

We can't ignore it.

No matter how foolish they are, they are still members of the Yuan family.

It represents the face of the Yuan family.

Although it's uncertain whether Duan Yu will do anything outrageous, it's still necessary to be on guard.

Yuan Wei glanced at Ji Ling, then waved his sleeve and said, "You should go and rest first."

Ji Ling immediately stood up and nodded, knowing that what was about to be said was not something he should listen to, so he immediately took his leave.

PS:

I didn't originally intend to say this, but after reading many comments, I still want to explain the update issue again.

First of all, as the author has already mentioned, I am not a full-time writer, and my writing time each day is really limited. Some readers have jokingly suggested that I quit my job and focus on writing. To be honest, even if I stopped writing books, I would still have a job. I believe you all understand why.

The updates have been a bit slow these past two days because the author's daughter (who is four years old and named Muchen, a combination of Duan Mu and Duan Chen) is sick and hospitalized with mycoplasma pneumonia.

Moreover, the young author is a single father who has to go to work and take care of his daughter every day, so he can only write in his spare time.

My daughter was hospitalized not in a hospital in our city, but in another hospital 150 kilometers away due to the limitations of local medical conditions.

Therefore, the young author has to drive more than 300 kilometers round trip every day.

The videos posted by DY weren't filmed on location; they were all from old archives. You can tell from the season in the background that the creator is in the north, where the snow and ice haven't completely melted yet.

In addition to work-related troubles, people also need to take care of their families.

The young author enjoys writing books, a hobby he has pursued for ten years, and the money he earns helps supplement his family's income.

Since its publication, this book has never missed a single day of updates. Even during breaks, there is always a guaranteed update of 3,000 words per chapter.

Moreover, observant readers can also see that each update by this young author is three thousand words long, not a perfunctory two thousand words.

Two updates from a junior author are equivalent to three updates for most authors, and three updates from a junior author are equivalent to four or even five updates for a normal author.

Besides the daughter's illness, there are some changes to the plot.

As readers may have noticed, Duan Liuqing was originally slated to leave the story.

However, seeing so many requests from readers, the young author couldn't bear to refuse and could only make adjustments to the plot.

However, some plot points are so interconnected that they require numerous revisions and a complete overhaul.

This book is not a traditional wish-fulfillment novel. Although it features a system, it is more historically accurate. The order of characters' appearances, the timeline, and the background settings of the characters are all designed according to the historical timeline.

Even a small change can lead to a lot of plot changes later on.

Every day, the author carefully considers the suggestions from readers, striving to satisfy them and ensure that the author has no regrets.

Writing a book is a long process. Compared to a rich life, sitting in front of a computer for hours every day is something that requires great perseverance.

Moreover, this is just one of the author's hobbies, and only one of them.

The young author enjoys writing, fishing, cycling, and racing (of course, he may have quite a few hobbies), but one shouldn't live a life without regrets, and the young author doesn't want to mistreat himself.

I've said too much already, let's get back to the updates and the subsequent storyline.

As you all probably already can see, the curtain of history has been raised, and the following plot will revolve around the struggle for supremacy.

As for updates, I guarantee at least 6,000 words a day, without fail. In my spare time, I will focus on writing, with other tasks as secondary, and try my best to satisfy you all.

There's a lot of rambling, but the main text is enough for three thousand words.

You can also follow this author on Douyin: Zenchanchan. I'm currently renovating my studio, and I might stream writing and chatting with you all on Saturdays and Sundays.

Getting back to the main topic, there will be another update later.
