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

"cough....."

Lying on the ground with several arrows stuck in his chest, Meng Ji coughed up a mouthful of blood.

The dark sky was also stained with a blood-red hue before our eyes.

Around Meng Ji, dozens of cavalrymen were killed without exception, all falling into pools of blood.

With great effort, Meng Ji turned his head and saw several familiar faces beside him.

Those lifeless eyes still held confusion and resentment.

"Little...Sixth Son."

"Big...Big Tiger."

Meng Ji extended his hand.

Suddenly, a foot stepped on Meng Ji's hand.

Chen, the clerk, turned his head and glanced behind him, frowning as he said, "There's another one alive here. Kill him quickly, and then bury the body on the spot."

Meng Ji saw Chen Zhubo's face.

"Why...?"

Just now, Chief Clerk Chen shouted that the military commander had rebelled and was secretly colluding with the Xiongnu.

Meng Ji would never believe it, no matter what.

Since it wasn't the military commander who rebelled.

Why?

Why did Wang Rou order them to be killed when he was clearly protecting the governor?

Meng Ji couldn't understand it.

Chen, the clerk, frowned, holding a torch in his other hand.

Meng Ji lay on the ground, one eye pierced by a Xiongnu arrow, several arrows stuck in his leather armor.

Fresh blood kept spilling from the corner of Meng Ji's mouth.

Seeing that he was about to die, Meng Ji seemed to have one last breath and wanted to know the answer.

Chen, the registrar, narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Why?"

"There's no answer to such a naive question."

Beside him, Wang Rou's elite cavalrymen approached Meng Ji, raised their long swords high, and aimed at Meng Ji's chest.

Then he suddenly stabbed down.

"what!"

Meng Ji roared and struggled to raise his arms to protect his chest.

puff!

The long sword pierced through Meng Ji's arm, but got stuck in his chest.

The blade tore through Meng Ji's breastplate, revealing a large gash.

A small wooden horse fell from Meng Ji's arms.

Chen, the clerk, frowned and glanced at the guards who were about to strike: "Useless. They can't even handle a dead man."

After saying this, Chen Zhubu looked at Meng Ji.

However, Meng Ji was already dead by then.

"Hurry up and dispose of the bodies."

"Don't leave any traces," said Chen Zhubo, frowning.

The soldier nodded, then dragged Meng Ji's body toward the distant woods.

After glancing at the things that had fallen from Meng Ji's arms, Chen Zhubu bent down and picked them up.

After taking a look at it, he said dismissively, "I thought it was some kind of treasure."

As he spoke, he raised his arm as if to throw it.

However, at this moment.

In the distance, the thunderous sound of horses' hooves suddenly rose from the direction of Pingcheng Pass to the south.

The sheer number of them and the deafening sound were like thunder.

Holding the wooden horse in his hand, Chief Clerk Chen looked up, his expression somewhat puzzled.

Perhaps he suddenly remembered something, and Chen, the clerk, who was standing still, was instantly shocked.

"Quick, quick, forget about these corpses, let's go, let's go!"

After giving a shout, Chief Clerk Chen prepared to mount his horse and flee.

However, it was too late and then too soon.

An arrow, seemingly piercing through space, struck the warhorse beneath Chen Zhubu in the next second.

The arrow was incredibly powerful; it pierced the horse's head completely.

The warhorse collapsed to the ground without even letting out a mournful cry.

“Ouch…”

Chen, the clerk, cried out in pain as he fell to the ground.

By the time he got up, the thunderous sound of hooves in the distance was getting closer and closer.

By the light of the cold moon, Chen Pingwu could clearly see the lead rider.

A black warhorse, with a rider clad in black armor, holding a precious bow in a shooting stance.

In the blink of an eye, after Chen Pingwu stood up, the rider was only about a hundred paces away from him.

Whoosh whoosh!

Chen Pingwu felt only the sound of air being pierced around him, while the warhorses around him fell one by one.

In an instant, more than twenty warhorses had been shot dead.

Duan Yu!

Two words suddenly popped into Chen Pingwu's mind.

Legend has it that Duan Yu became famous in Taiyuan for single-handedly sniping nearly three hundred bandits from afar during the battle to suppress bandits in Longshan.

Chen Pingwu's face turned ashen when he thought of that name.

But it was too late to run.

The warhorses have all been shot dead.

Moreover, those who wanted to escape had already been blocked by Duan Yu.

Behind Duan Yu, a dense troop of cavalry followed closely, their hooves thundering.

When Duan Yu arrived at Wang Rou's elite cavalry, the precious carved bow in his hand was already hanging on the saddle.

Duan Yu, wielding the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd, rode atop a black jade Qilin beast, the tip of the halberd flashing with sharp light.

"Where is Wang Rou?!"

Duan Yu asked in a cold voice.

Chen Pingwu remained silent and lowered his stance.

However, the soldiers, unaware of what had happened, focused all their attention on the middle-aged man in a black robe riding a white horse.

Duan Yu's sharp gaze swept over them.

"Are you Wang Rou?" Duan Yu asked coldly.

"No no no!"

The middle-aged man on horseback immediately shook his head and said in a trembling voice, "No, I didn't mean it."

"General, I know nothing."

"It's him, it's Lord Chen."

"Lord Chen, please let me ride this horse and then say nothing."

Ok?

Not only Duan Yu was stunned.

Even the elite cavalrymen under Wang Rou's command were stunned.

The man on horseback isn't Prefect Wang Rou?

What about Wang Rou?

"Which one is Lord Chen?" Duan Yu asked in a cold voice.

The middle-aged man on horseback turned his head and looked around. Suddenly, he spotted Chen Pingwu in the crowd and pointed at him.

"General, that is Lord Chen."

The next second, Chen Pingwu felt an extremely sharp gaze fall on him.

Chen Pingwu took two steps back and tried to run, but a large hand grabbed his armor and lifted his feet off the ground.

There was a bang.

Chen Pingwu was thrown to the ground by Duan Yu.

Duan Yu didn't waste any words.

In fact, he doesn't have the energy to talk nonsense anymore.

They had chased Wang Rou all the way from Loufan Pass to Yinguan, thinking they were about to catch her.

Who knew that after entering the city, they would learn that Wang Rou was leading troops on a border patrol.

I genuinely thought Wang Rou was leading troops to search the border.

Duan Yu planned to wait until Wang Rou returned before making a move.

But after Wang Rou's residence was sealed off, it was discovered that Wang Rou had not gone to Xunbian, but had clearly run away.

It was only after questioning the servants of Wang Rou's residence that they learned the truth.

Just one day before they arrived at the Yin Pavilion, someone suddenly came from Jinyang.

Duan Yu didn't even need to guess what the person who came was doing.

Someone must have tipped them off.

Fortunately, Wang Rou left in a large group; it's impossible for hundreds of people to leave without leaving a trace.

Therefore, Duan Yu ordered a pursuit.

Moreover, with Zhang Liao joining the effort, the pursuit went very smoothly.

"I'm giving you a chance to confess."

Duan Yu said coldly, "Remember, only once."

"If you tell me now, you'll save yourself a beating."

"Of course, I'm not afraid that you won't talk, because I have a hundred ways to make you open your mouth."

"But back then, you'd inevitably suffer some physical pain."

As Duan Yu was speaking, the large cavalry force behind him caught up.

Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Chen Qing'an, Wang Hunu, and Tie Shitou were brought to Duan Yu's side one after another.

Chen Pingwu kept his mouth shut and clenched his back teeth tightly.

Duan Yu took a deep breath.

"very good."

"Stone, go and take the things off my warhorse."

Following Duan Yu's command, Tie Shitou walked towards the Moyu Qilin Beast.

Just as Zhang Liao dismounted, he was tripped by a corpse at his feet. He glanced down casually and his eyes widened instantly.

"Meng Ji!"

Zhang Liao shouted loudly.

This loud shout immediately drew Duan Yu's attention.

"Does Wen Yuan know him?" Duan Yu asked quickly.

Zhang Liao stood there, his eyes filled with shock, and then nodded.

"He...he is the garrison commander under my elder brother."

“When I went to the Underworld last year, he was still under my elder brother’s command.”

“I remember it clearly. My eldest brother had arranged a marriage for him, and they were about to get married.”

"My elder brother wrote to me a while ago, and he mentioned Meng Ji in the letter."

Duan Yu frowned upon hearing this.

When he arrived, the ground was already littered with corpses.

He just hadn't noticed.

Now that Zhang Liao has said this, it's clear that these soldiers lying on the ground are Han soldiers.

There are no enemies here.

Where did these Han soldiers' corpses come from?

There seems to be only one answer.

Duan Yu turned his gaze to Chen Pingwu.

An overwhelming surge of anger welled up in his eyes, almost bursting forth.

Chen Pingwu suddenly felt a chill run through his body.

"I...I...I'll talk!" Chen Pingwu said urgently.

"Too late!" Duan Yu said coldly.
