"But…"
Liu Bei bowed deeply and said passionately,""Milord, it's not about numbers, but quality. It's not about courage, but strategy. Although I, Liu Bei, have few troops, each of my elites can easily defeat the Yellow Turbans.”
"Oh?"
Han Yue was slightly curious and could not help but ask,"Don't tell me that you, Liu Xuande, don't have local soldiers under your command, but battle-hardened elites?”
Caught off guard, Liu Bei hurriedly explained,""Although Bei's subordinates are also temporarily recruited local soldiers, my two sworn brothers have the courage of ten thousand men. It's not difficult for them to defeat the Yellow Turbans!”
Han Yue rolled his eyes and pretended to be shocked."Who are the two sworn brothers of Xuande? Could it be that he was also a descendant of a general who was hiding in the city?”
"This…"
Liu Bei hesitated slightly, his expression confused, but he finally said,""No! My third brother, Yi De, is a butcher in the village. My second brother, Yun Chang, sells dates in the village. Although I am a relative of the Han clan, I make a living by weaving mats and selling shoes!”
All the civil and military officials in the hall laughed mockingly and revealed disdainful gazes.
"Xuande, your general is actually a pig butcher and wine seller? How can you have the courage of ten thousand men? Stop joking. If that's the case, my subordinates are all brave generals!”
"That's right, Xuande. Everyone can understand why you want to make contributions, but you must act according to your capabilities. The other party has eight thousand Yellow Turban soldiers, and you only have five hundred local soldiers. How can you resist them?”
"Exactly! His Excellency is doing this to protect you. Don't you understand?”
“......”
Everyone spoke one after another, and Liu Bei really did not have any temper. He let out a long breath and cupped his hands."Since that's the case, let General Han be the main battle!”
Han Yue cupped his hands and bowed." Don't worry, Xuande. I will definitely win the first battle against the Yellow Turbans. I will make sure that they will not dare to invade Youzhou again!"”
"Good!"
Liu Yan stood up and said,""As expected of the person who defeated the Taoyuan Mountain bandits. If you destroy this group of Yellow Turbans, I'll give you the first credit. At that time, it's not a problem for you to be promoted!”
Han Yue said heroically," The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of every man. Fighting is to protect the country, so there's no need to talk about promotion. Although Han Yue is not talented, I hope that he can return in a horse's leather to repay your kindness!”
"Hahaha!"
Liu Yan looked up at the sky and laughed. He was moved by Han Yue's boldness. He walked around the long table and entered the hall."Well said, it's our honor to have someone like Fan Yang County in Zhuo County!”
"Someone, bring the wine!"
Liu Yan's eyes were filled with excitement as she shouted,""I want to drink a cup of wine for Fanyang County!”
A servant came with wine and presented it to Han Yue and Liu Yan.
The two of them raised their glasses and raised their necks.
Han Yue cupped his hands and bowed.”
Liu Yan nodded.”
After saying that, Han Yue's cloak fluttered lightly as he turned around and left the hall.
All the civil and military officials in the hall felt that Han Yue's means of flattering Shangguan were superb, and their faces were full of disdain and disdain.
"Humph! If 20,000 people couldn't exterminate 8,000 Yellow Turbans, then he could forget about being a county magistrate. He might as well go home and take care of his children.”
"That's right, this person is too good at pretending. If I had 20,000 people, I would definitely be able to defeat the Yellow Turban!”
“......”
Liu Bei looked at Han Yue's back as he left. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
This person would be a very troublesome opponent!
For some reason, Liu Bei suddenly had a thought. If he were to lose this battle, then it would be time for him to make a name for himself!
Thinking of this, Liu Bei took a deep breath and calmed himself down as he sat at the side.
Zou Jing was explaining the situation of the Yellow Turban soldiers and the Youzhou guards. For more than four hours, Liu Bei did not listen to a single word. His heart had already flown to the battlefield with Han Yue.
"Report ~~~"
Suddenly, a report came from outside the hall. A scout rushed into the hall with a panicked expression. He staggered and almost fell to the ground."Milord, trouble, trouble Milord!”
Liu Yan frowned and said coldly,""Slow down. What happened?”
The scout took two deep breaths." Sir, the scouts at the front have reported that the eight thousand Yellow Turban soldiers we found earlier were just the vanguard of the bandits. Behind them are a large number of Yellow Turban soldiers. There are fifty thousand of them!”
"How much?"
Liu Yan stood up and said with shock in his eyes!
"Sir, there are fifty thousand Yellow Turban bandits!”
The scout bowed and cupped his hands as he spoke solemnly.
"Ah ~~~"
The civil and military officials in the hall were all shocked.
"Fifty thousand people! There are actually 50,000 people!"
"It's too terrifying. The Yellow Turbans have a big appetite. I'm afraid they want to completely occupy all the counties in Youzhou.”
"Damn it! Fanyang County only had 20,000 local soldiers. Although they could take down 8,000 Yellow Turban Vanguard soldiers, they would probably be completely surrounded and killed by 50,000 troops!”
"I'm afraid Fanyang County is doomed this time!”
"That's right! Fifty thousand soldiers, the difference in strength was too great, there was no chance of victory!”
“......”
Liu Bei was surprised.
However, there was a hint of schadenfreude in his surprise.
As long as Han Yue's army was defeated, then he could legitimately send troops, and he could guarantee that no one would dare to snatch it from him!
In the hall, General Zou Jing bowed and cupped his hands.""Milord, Fanyang County will be in danger. This general requests permission to lead a troop to rescue them.”
Liu Yan immediately waved her hand and refused. You're the general of the central army, I can't leave you here!”
Zou Jing heaved a long sigh,"Sir, but…"
Without waiting for Zou Jing to finish, Liu Yan looked around at the civil and military officials in the hall and said,""I wonder if any of the counties are willing to go out and rescue Fan Yang County?”
After a long time!
Not a word.
Liu Yan's brows were tightly knitted together, and his anger rose to his chest.""Humph! The country is in danger, you don't want to repay the favor, but you are scheming here. What are your intentions?”
Everyone remained indifferent.
At this moment, Liu Bei took a step forward and cupped his fists.""Milord, this general is willing to lead troops to the rescue!”
Liu Yan heaved a sigh of relief.”
