Chapter 10: Bai Yuekui: Wasn't this victory a bit too sloppy?!
Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi cursed him for a piece of trash,
drew his great saber, spurred his horse, and danced the blade toward Zhang Fei.
"Round-faced brute, how dare you hurt my deputy! Pay with your life!"
"Whoosh!"
Guan Yu instantly charged out, riding his horse to meet him with a momentum like a rainbow!
The Green Dragon Crescent Blade moved with lightning speed, slashing down!
Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi was shocked; caught off guard, blood splattered everywhere.
The Yellow Turban soldiers were astonished to find that their commander Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi, who had been so incredibly tough just a moment ago, had been split in two by that long-bearded, red-faced general in the green hat!
The Yellow Turban army fell into chaos instantly!
If neither the commander nor the deputy could withstand a single blow, how could they fight?
Liu Bei nodded to himself. It was just as he remembered: Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao were two idiots who loved to lead from the front but had poor skills.
Simply put, they were terrible but loved to play!
Running into two fierce generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, they were bound to fail!
Liu Bei let out a great shout,
"The bandit leader is dead! Follow me to kill the enemy!"
"Kill!"
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led their respective battalions to charge fiercely at the Yellow Turban soldiers!
"Kill!"
Zhang Fei roared!
Many of the Yellow Turban soldiers had been farmers a month ago. Seeing their commander and deputy killed in one strike, they had long since lost their nerve. When Liu Bei’s side roared, many dropped their weapons!
In a battle between two armies, the brave win; emotions in the army are the easiest to spread. ===== CHAPTER 21 =====
Those standing far away, hearing that both the commander and deputy were dead, turned and ran!
"Run!"
"As long as I run faster than the others, I can survive!"
Bai Yuekui and Hua Hua Mulan looked at each other.
"We won just like that?"
"Is ancient warfare this sloppy?"
The two shook their heads and led their men to charge up and reap the fruits of victory!
The livestream exploded.
"Damn, this battle was way too sloppy."
"Even TV shows wouldn't dare film it like this, yet it actually happened!"
"Zhang Fei is so fierce, he even comes with a sonic attack. One shout almost deafened me!"
"Guan Yu is also amazing, splitting a man in two with one blade!"
"That was the commander of the Yellow Turbans; he looked so tough, yet he couldn't dodge Guan Yu’s blade!"
"Liu Bei has such damn good luck! He’s found a treasure!"
Netizens from other countries who came to the Xia Kingdom livestream to watch a joke turned sour.
"Good luck, these Yellow Turban soldiers are just too useless!"
"With just this, they dare to rebel? Isn't that like lighting a lamp in a latrine!"
The conclusion they reached was not that Liu Bei was strong, but that the opponents were too weak!
Thinking about it this way, they felt a bit better!
On the battlefield,
Liu Bei held his dual swords, killing one with every strike!
He had great strength, and having recently learned some martial techniques from Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, dealing with these small-fry was more than enough!
A few Yellow Turban soldiers tried to turn and hack at him, but he slashed one away with a single sword stroke! They were instantly terrified again.
"My life is more important! Run!"
With Yellow Turban stragglers all over the mountains and plains, Liu Bei and his men chased and killed them for half a day before stopping, exhausted.
They killed and captured about twenty thousand people; the rest had vanished without a trace.
There was no help for it; Liu Bei’s side had too few men, not even enough to guard the prisoners!
The battle ended.
Bai Yuekui couldn't suppress the wild joy in her heart; she grabbed Liu Bei’s hand and said excitedly,
"Captain, we won!"
Liu Bei shrugged.
"It’s not bragging, but I’ve never lost a fight!"
Bai Yuekui rolled her eyes.
"Do you think this is a street brawl?"
"Big Brother, Sister-in-law, mind your influence! We are still on the battlefield!"
Zhang Fei roared and charged over, attracting everyone’s attention.
Bai Yuekui’s face turned red instantly, and she cursed under her breath. Originally, few people were looking this way, but now the whole army knew she and Liu Bei were holding hands on the battlefield!
Zhang Fei rubbed his hands vigorously and said excitedly,
"Big Brother, we won! Fighting is really refreshing, much better than counting money at home!"
"Hehe, that Deng Mao was poked to death by my spear!"
"Second Brother is too mean; Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi came to kill me, and he snatched him away!"
Zhang Fei grumbled.
Liu Bei patted his shoulder.
"Zhang Yide, don't be impatient. You’ll have plenty of chances to fight—no, to display your martial arts—in the future!"
Guan Yu also returned, dismounting; his face was even redder, likely from excitement.
"Big Brother!"
Liu Bei patted his shoulder.
"Second Brother, you’ve worked hard. This time you beheaded the enemy commander; it should be the top merit!"
Guan Yu felt great inside, but on the surface, he remained arrogant, saying faintly,
"Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi was too weak; I didn't even get to exert myself!"
Zhang Fei hurriedly shouted,
"I say, Second Brother, don't snatch them from me!"
Liu Bei and Guan Yu looked at each other and burst into laughter!
Youzhou City,
Liu Yu was still worried; Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi’s Yellow Turban army would arrive in Youzhou City in one day.
"I wonder how Liu Bei is doing. He should have seen the situation was bad and retreated, right?"
"Inspector, great news!"
Xianyu Fu rushed in, out of breath.
Liu Yu frowned.
"What great news? Could it be that Brother Gongsun Zan has come to reinforce us?"
"No, Inspector! Liu Bei defeated Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi’s fifty-thousand-strong army at Mount Mount Daxing, killed Cheng Cheng Yuanzhi and his deputy Deng Mao, scattered the Yellow Turban army, and even captured nearly twenty thousand bandits!"
"What!"
Liu Yu stood up in shock.
"This Liu Bei is so strong?"
Xianyu Fu cupped his fists.
"Inspector, Liu Bei will be able to return in three hours."
Liu Yu rubbed his hands excitedly.
"Good, good! I will go ten miles out of the city to meet him!" ===== CHAPTER 22 =====
