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

inside the house.

Liu Bei stood up and looked at Duan Liuqing who had entered the room.

Although it is still unclear what Duan Liuqing's exact position is within the Military Affairs Department.

However, through this period of observation, Liu Bei confirmed that the young woman in front of him held a very high position in the Military Affairs Office, even higher than that of the Night Hawk he had killed in Xuzhou.

Because on the way from Chang'an, Liu Bei saw this woman appear beside Duan Yu.

After entering the room, Duan Liuqing waved to the person behind him.

The main door inside the house was closed.

Two guards from the Military Affairs Bureau stood at the door, their swords at their waists.

Duan Liuqing was in front, and Gan Mei was behind.

"Your life is temporarily spared," Duan Liuqing said to Liu Bei.

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."

Liu Bei pretended to be clueless and was filled with gratitude.

The reason for this is that when they were in Chang'an, Liu Bei lied and claimed to be a spy planted by Sima Fang and Zhuge Gui next to Xiaoyu.

His chance to survive came from the false information he passed on to Sima Fang and Zhuge Gui.

The false information was that Duan Yu was preparing to attack Pengcheng, not Xiaopei.

This is precisely why Duan Yu's wolf cavalry appeared in Pei County.

"Now I'm giving you a task. If you do well, you'll be free, and I'll also give you some money. With this money, you won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life."

Duan Liuqing then revealed his purpose.

Liu Bei lowered his head, his eyes narrowed into slits as he stared at the path beneath his feet.

As soon as Duan Liuqing finished speaking, Liu Bei immediately knelt down on the ground and thanked him profusely.

They really looked no different from ordinary people who had been granted amnesty.

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. I will be obedient and do as you command. I will absolutely obey whatever you instruct me to do."

Duan Liuqing smiled with satisfaction, then nodded to Liu Bei and said, "Get up."

Liu Bei stood up, but still kept his head down.

"Your next task is to return to Xiapi immediately, then contact Sima Fang and Zhuge Gui, and tell them that you have information about the marching route of His Highness the King of Liang, and point out the route to them."

"what?"

Liu Bei looked up blankly at Duan Liuqing, then immediately lowered his head again, his voice trembling as he said, "My...my lord...I have already betrayed Sima Fang and Zhuge Gui, can they...can they still trust me?"

"Go ahead and do your job. Whether they believe it or not is their business. You just need to do your job well, understand?" Duan Liuqing frowned slightly and said in a cold voice.

"I understand, I understand, I understand."

"Remember, don't even think about running away. I'll have people watching you the whole way."

Liu Bei nodded hurriedly: "I know, I wouldn't dare, I absolutely wouldn't dare."

"091, 099, you two escort him out of the city now, and then monitor him along the way until he returns to Xiapi City." Duan Liuqing looked behind him.

The two guards from the Military Affairs Office behind him immediately nodded and accepted the order.

Before long, Liu Bei left Xiapi City under the escort of two men.

Outside Xia Pi City.

Although it was already springtime, the air was still filled with a chill.

Dressed in thin clothes, Liu Bei gazed at the desolate land outside the city and then took a deep breath.

The cold air entered his lungs, instantly making Liu Bei shiver, and the scar on his face twitched slightly.

Turning his head to glance at Xiapi City behind him, Liu Bei narrowed his eyes, a slight smile curving his lips.

"Duan Yu, you never dreamed that I would just pass you by like this."

You worry that Sima Fang and Zhuge Gui will escape, but how can I not worry that you won't come to avenge your subordinates?"

With that, Liu Bei turned and headed south without looking back.

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

A few days later.

Xiapi City.

Not long after a fast horse stumbled through the city gate and headed straight for the official residence in the inner city.

Inside the official residence, Zhuge Gui and Sima Fang both fell into despair as they looked at the battle reports sent back from the front lines.

"It's over...20,000 troops are gone just like that."

Sima Fang slumped into the chair behind him, holding the battle report in his hand.

Zhuge Gui also looked ashen-faced.

Although Xiapi is currently still in their hands.

However, the more than 10,000 garrison troops in the city were no match for Duan Yu's army.

Both of them were well aware of this.

Xu Rong died in battle.

Taishi Ci has disappeared without a trace.

The 20,000-strong army was wiped out.

How could they possibly resist Duan Yu now?

Zhuge Gui frowned deeply.

"The intelligence sent back by Prefect Liu clearly stated that Duan Yu's army was going to attack Pengcheng first, so why did it suddenly turn to Pei County?"

Sima Fang sighed deeply and said, "What's the use of saying all this now? I'm afraid even Liu Shijun himself is in trouble. He was thinking of returning to Chang'an with that spy from the Military Affairs Bureau, but who knows what's going on now?"

"It's possible that this intelligence is false, and that Governor Liu has already fallen into Duan Yu's hands."

Zhuge Gui shook his head in disbelief: "Impossible. Even if Lord Liu had fallen into Duan Yu's hands, the two have a blood feud. Why would he help Duan Yu?"

"Then why is this?"

Zhuge Gui was at a loss for words when he heard Sima Fang's question.

However, just as the two were talking, another announcement came from outside the door.

"grown ups."

"What is it!" Sima Fang frowned impatiently as he looked out of the hall.

"My lords, there is a man outside who claims to be an old friend of both of you and wishes to see you."

An old friend?

Both Zhuge Gui and Sima Fang were taken aback.

What old friend?

"Bring the men in," Sima Fang waved his hand and said to the soldiers.

Before long, the soldiers led a disheveled Liu Bei into the hall.

When I saw it was Liu Bei.

Zhuge Gui and Sima Fang were both visibly taken aback.

"My lord..."

The two stood up almost simultaneously.

Upon meeting Zhuge Gui and Sima Fang, Liu Bei smiled.

"Gentlemen, how have you been?"
