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

"Report!"

Outside Yucheng, a troop of cavalry galloped rapidly toward the city gate.

The cavalry battalion commander looked panicked and shouted in a flustered manner.

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, who were on the city wall, saw the figures and sounds of the cavalry and leaned out to look towards the outside of the city wall.

Before long, the cavalry sergeant, his face filled with panic, quickly ran up the city wall and knelt on one knee in front of Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song.

"Reporting to the General, something terrible has happened!"

The squad leader looked panicked.

Zhu Jun frowned, looked down at the cavalry squad leader kneeling on one knee, and asked, "What's wrong? Has Duan Yu's men led Liangzhou troops to attack the city?"

The sergeant quickly shook his head and said, "No...not Duan Yu's subordinate..."

Zhu Jun's face immediately showed a look of disappointment.

However, before Zhu Jun could say anything more, the squad leader's next words left Zhu Jun stunned on the spot.

"It's Duan Yu, it's Duan Yu!" The squad leader looked up at Zhu Jun.

what!

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were both taken aback.

"What did you say? Say it again!" Zhu Jun looked at the squad leader in disbelief and asked, "You said Duan Yu is here?"

Huangfu Song, who was standing to the side, was also extremely shocked.

Why so fast?

And not a single word has come through.

According to the current timeline, Duan Yu should still be on his way back from the Western Regions.

Could it be that it can fly?

"Are you sure it's Duan Yu?" Huangfu Song pressed.

The squad leader nodded hurriedly and said, "I dare not lie. Although I do not recognize Duan Yu, that person is indeed Duan Yu."

"Duan Yu only brought a few hundred cavalrymen, and after arriving in Anyi, he attacked the city of Anyi alone."

"Before I returned, Anyi City had already fallen to Duan Yu, and the Tiger-like General had been captured alive..."

"Your subordinate didn't dare approach, only watching from afar. Duan Yu was riding a huge black tiger, and the armor he wore reflected golden light. It was just one move..."

The squad leader, his face still showing fear, reported, "With just one move, they breached the south gate of Anyi City."

Zhu Jun's lips twitched.

what?

One person attacking a city?

And they broke through the city gate with just one move?

That's utter nonsense.

"Are you scared out of your wits? Duan Yu broke through the city gate all by himself?" Zhu Jun said, expressing disbelief.

But the cavalry sergeant nodded firmly: "General, I dare not... I utter not a single lie, it truly is Duan Yu..."

"All right!"

Zhu Jun waved his hand, interrupting the cavalry sergeant.

Whether it's true or not, such words that undermine morale should not be said in public.

It's enough to confirm that it's Duan Yu who's coming.

Zhu Jun immediately looked at Huangfu Song beside him: "Brother Yizhen, it seems that Duan Yu has really come."

"However, he probably didn't lead a large army here, otherwise we should have received news of Liangzhou's troop deployment long ago."

"According to intelligence, the troops from Liangzhou should still be on their way back to Liangzhou from the Western Regions. Duan Yu only brought a few hundred cavalry with him."

Huangfu Song nodded as he listened to Zhu Jun's words.

That should be it.

It would take at least two months for tens of thousands of troops to return from the Western Regions, and another ten days or so to travel from Liangzhou to Hedong County.

Unless all of Duan Yu's Liangzhou army can fly like birds.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to be here.

“Brother Yizhen, this is a rare opportunity, we…” Zhu Jun said, a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes, “Duan Yu led troops out of Liangzhou without authorization, which is suspected of treason. If he were to kill Yuan Shu…”

Huangfu Song nodded.

That's right.

However, Duan Yu only brought a few hundred soldiers with him at the moment.

Given Duan Yu's status—the governor of Liang Province and the Marquis of Ji—it wouldn't be considered overstepping his bounds to have hundreds of attendants by his side.

Even outside of Liangzhou, this situation wouldn't be considered a major incident.

The imperial court is unlikely to turn against Duan Yu simply because he only brought a few hundred attendants to Hedong County.

unless......

“Brother Gongwei, if things continue like this, it will be difficult for us to accomplish anything.” Huangfu Song cautiously looked at Zhu Jun and said, “Duan Yu only brought a few hundred soldiers to Hedong County. Given his status, it would be normal for him to have a few hundred attendants.”

"and......"

Huangfu Song's gaze swept over the cavalry sergeant kneeling to the side, then turned to Zhu Jin and said, "And he also said that Duan Yu attacked the city alone..."

"It's hard to say about these things."

"The Empress Dowager probably won't really punish Duan Yu for this, thus forcing Liangzhou to rebel."

"unless......"

Zhu Jun raised an eyebrow and replied, "Brother Yizhen, are you saying that unless Duan Yu kills Yuan Shu and those people in Anyi City?"

Huangfu Song nodded and replied, "That's right."

Zhu Jun's eyes darted around rapidly.

Would Duan Yu kill Yuan Shu?

There's a 90% chance they'll kill.

Duan Yu had done similar things before.

“In that case, we should make arrangements now!” Zhu Jun said.

Huangfu Song nodded, indicating his agreement with Zhu Jun's opinion.

“We will send troops to Anyi now. Duan Yu only has a few hundred soldiers, plus two thousand men outside Anyi. We have fifty thousand troops, which can completely surround Anyi.”

"Unless Duan Yu doesn't kill Yuan Shu, as long as he kills Yuan Shu and those people in Anyi City, we can take him down!"

Zhu Jun gripped his head tightly.

Huangfu Song nodded in agreement and looked at the setting sun on the horizon.

Yucheng is 40 li away from Anyi, and the road is flat. If you march quickly, you can arrive in about half a day.

However, it was already close to evening.

If they set off at midnight, the army should arrive by noon tomorrow, and the cavalry will be even faster.

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

The time is approaching evening.

On the city wall of Anyi.

After Duan Yu single-handedly intimidated all the Tiger Warriors on the city wall and captured Yuan Shu, the entire Tiger Warriors surrendered.

Duan Yu ordered Tie Shitou to lead two thousand Liangzhou soldiers from outside the city into the city.

The body inside the city gate has been removed and thrown into the moat outside the city.

Blood stained the entire moat.

Duan Yu squatted on the city wall, holding a damp silk handkerchief, and carefully cleaned the dirt and grime off the corpse of Wang Hunu in front of him.

Clean up all the remaining bloodstains on the armor.

The movements are very gentle.

"You brat, don't you know that as long as you're alive, you can always make a comeback..."

"Brother, when have I ever been afraid of these people? You spare your life and wait for me to come back."

Duan Yu washed the silk in a wooden basin and then gently cleaned the armor plates on Wang Hunu's body, polishing each plate until it looked brand new.

Tie Shitou and Wang Erhu stood behind Duan Yu, sobbing incessantly.

The Liangzhou soldiers around them also watched this scene unfold.

Behind him, Yuan Shu, Fan Xian, Wei Xun, and dozens of officials of all ranks from Anyi County were bound and kneeling on the ground.

After cleaning all the dirt and grime off Wang Hunu's body, Duan Yu personally lifted Wang Hunu's corpse and placed it in a large coffin that had been prepared to the side.

"Tiger Slave, walk slowly on the road, don't rush." ​​Duan Yu's large hand gently stroked the armor on Wang Hu Nu's body and said, "Big brother has found some people to accompany you on the road. Don't worry, not one of them will be missing."

"I promise you, they will die a hundred times more painfully than you. I'll show them what despair truly means!"

Duan Yu took a step back.

Six soldiers in bright armor from Liangzhou carried the enormous coffin lid and slowly placed it on the coffin.

Duan Yu picked up the white soul-summoning banner that was placed next to him.

"Tiger slave!"

"The soul is back!"

"Tiger slave!"

"The soul is back!"

Duan Yu waved a huge soul-summoning banner.

Standing atop the city wall, all the Liangzhou soldiers scattered snow-white paper into the air.

In an instant, the entire city of Anyi seemed to be covered by a white ocean.

Snow-white paper drifted down from the city wall and slowly sprinkled onto the ground.

Tie Shitou and Wang Erhu knelt behind Duan Yu, sobbing uncontrollably.

After doing all this, Duan Yu looked at Yuan Shu, Fan Xian, and many officials of Anyi City behind him.

Everyone involuntarily shivered.

"Duan...Duan Yu, you can't kill me, you can't kill me!"

Yuan Shu looked at Duan Yu with a look of horror.

Duan Yu's gaze was cold.

"cannot?"

"I told you, you would die a horrible death."

"It's not just you, it's all of you..."

Fan Xian's body trembled involuntarily, and he didn't even have the courage to look up at Duan Yu.

"Iron stone!"

Duan Yu took a deep breath and said, "Lead the troops into the city and capture all the relatives of everyone here. Don't leave a single one out."

"Regardless of gender or age, I will slaughter their entire clan to appease the spirit of Tiger Slave in heaven!"

"From this moment on, until every single piece of white paper scattered outside the city is dyed red!"

"Kill them all, leave no one alive!"

Everyone kneeling on the ground raised their heads at that moment.

It seems they couldn't believe what they were hearing.

Exterminate their entire family!

"Lord Ji...I...I'm innocent! I didn't do anything!" Fan Xian cried out in terror, "Lord Ji, you can't do this! You can't do this!"

Duan Yu completely ignored Fan Xian's pleas for mercy.

They also had no interest in investigating whether Fan Xian and Wang Hunu's deaths were related.

Tiger Slave is dead.

Everyone who has breathed the air of this city is guilty.

Wei Xun, kneeling beside Fan Xian, was also filled with remorse.

If he hadn't boarded Fan Xian's carriage, if he hadn't met Fan Xian, how could he have suffered this calamity today?

"Lord Ji, why should my crime implicate your entire clan? Aren't you afraid of becoming the target of public criticism by doing this?" Wei Xun looked at Duan Yu.

"You... are not qualified for me to discuss the world." Duan Yu squinted his eyes.

Meanwhile, Tie Shitou and Wang Erhu had already led their troops down the city wall.

As evening approached, chaos erupted in Anyi City, with cries and wails echoing throughout the night.
