"Report…Zhuo County battle report!!”
Liu Yan, who was pacing back and forth anxiously in the treatment center, stopped.
None of his subordinates dared to say anything, let alone disturb Liu Yan. They knew what he was worried about.
He was most worried about Zhuo County in Youzhou Province.
A few days ago, Zhang Jiao's General Cheng Yuanzhi led 50,000 troops towards Zhuo County.
He knew that the Youzhou garrison was not strong enough to defend Zhuo County. If Zhuo County was lost, Youzhou would be invaded and his territory would be in danger!
Upon hearing the battle report, Liu Yan hurriedly shouted.
"Hurry up and present it!"
He held the battle report in his hand but did not open it. He stared out the window as if he wanted to take a deep breath to calm his heart.
"Sigh!"
A moment later, Liu Yan sighed.
"I already know the ending, so what am I hoping for?”
Then, Liu Yan shook his head.
"At worst, Zhuo County will fall. With all the troops in Youzhou, we should be able to stop it.”
Liu Yan's hesitation disappeared as he opened the battle report of Zhuo County.
"Zhuo County's Liu Yu and Zhuo County's general Zou Jing first defeated the Yellow Turban vanguard Deng Mao with 1,000 elite cavalry, then Cheng Yuanzhi led 40,000 Yellow Turban soldiers to the city.”
Upon seeing this, Liu Yan's originally tightly knitted brows relaxed a little and she sighed again, as if she had let it go.
"It's not easy to defeat the vanguard of the Yellow Turban Army.”
Then, he read the following.
The generals below looked at the sighing Youzhou Governor Liu Yan and did not dare to say anything. In everyone's opinion, the outcome of the 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers was beyond discussion.
"After that, Cheng Yuanzhi led 40,000 Yellow Turban soldiers to the city. 1,000 elite cavalry were not afraid of 40,000 Yellow Turban soldiers.”
"Liu Yu single-handedly fought against Cheng Yuanzhi and forced him to retreat with a single glance. Then, under the cover of his 18 elite cavalry, Liu Yu went thousands of meters deep into the enemy army and beheaded the enemy general Cheng Yuanzhi.”
Seeing this, Liu Yan frowned with a strange expression. At this moment, he suspected that he was reading a hero novel sold on the streets.
But even so, Liu Yan still continued to watch.
"Liu Yu held Cheng Yuanzhi's head high with a scarlet rainbow sword and shouted,'We will not kill those who surrender!'As a result, the morale of the Yellow Turban rebels collapsed like a mountain, some fled, some surrendered.”
"There are even Divine Martial generals under him. The Yellow Turban Army doesn't dare to approach within a hundred feet.”
" In this battle, more than 10,000 Yellow Turban soldiers surrendered, 30,000 weapons were seized, and 30,000 Yellow Turban bandits were killed…"
"We won this battle!"
In the end, Liu Yan looked at the official seal under the Zhuo County Battle Report and his face turned ashen. He was now suspecting if he had been played.
Are you writing a martial arts novel here?
The people below lowered their heads. The Provincial Governor looked like Zhuo County had fallen.
"Nonsense!" Liu Yan shouted angrily.
How could a mere few thousand defenders stop the invasion of 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers? Anyone would have thought so.
"Are you sure there's nothing wrong with this report?”
Liu Yan actually pulled out his sword and placed it on the neck of the person who delivered the battle report.
The messenger felt a chill on his neck and cried out with a sad face.
"Lord Provincial Governor, it's absolutely true. This lowly one can guarantee with my life that no third person has seen this battle report.”
Liu Yan looked at the messenger seriously. He didn't look like he was lying. Moreover, there was no need to risk his life for such a joke. In that case, it was very likely that this matter was true.
The generals lowered their heads even lower, almost touching the ground. The Provincial Governor had actually drawn his saber, which showed how furious he was.
Silence. The Youzhou Prefecture was terrifyingly quiet. The long silence made countless people break out in cold sweat.
Immediately after, Liu Yan withdrew his sword and laughed loudly.
"Hahahaha!"
"Hahahahaha!"
"1,000 to 10,000, then 40,000!”
"1,000 to 10,000, then 40,000!”
Liu Yan repeated with a smile.
The people under him didn't dare to speak anymore. They all suspected that the Provincial Governor had gone crazy because he couldn't accept it.
"Lord Provincial Governor, Zhuo County has fallen, please calm down.”
Someone mustered up his courage and said.
Joy filled Liu Yan's heart. It had been a long time since he had been so happy. He was not annoyed by his subordinate's persuasion.
He smiled and asked,"Calm down. Why should I be angry? Zhuo County is safe."”
The people below raised their heads and asked in surprise.
"How is that possible? How can a mere few thousand soldiers in Zhuo County defend against fifty thousand Yellow Turban bandits?”
The others also began to discuss.
"Zhuo County is defended?"
"Even if we double the number of soldiers, we might not be able to hold on, right?”
After a while, the noise finally quieted down.
"Congratulations to the Provincial Governor for defending Zhuo County.”
The people below congratulated him.
However, Liu Yan shook his head.
The people below looked at Liu Yan's smiling face in confusion.
"Didn't the Provincial Governor just say that Zhuo County was safe and sound?”
"Milord, is Zhuo County still being defended?”
Liu Yan didn't keep him in suspense and started reading the Zhuo County battle report.
" In this battle, more than 10,000 Yellow Turban soldiers surrendered, 30,000 weapons were seized, and 30,000 Yellow Turban bandits were killed…"
"We won this battle."
Silence, deathly silence.
Then, all kinds of unbelievable news spread in the administration.
"Impossible!"
"How can a mere few thousand soldiers stop tens of thousands of Yellow Turban bandits?”
"If the Provincial Governor is not feeling well, you should rest early.”
"Lord Provincial Governor, don't joke around.”
“…………”
Faced with this unrealistic reality, many of his subordinates even contradicted him. Liu Yan was not angry and left the administration with a smile.
Then, Liu Yan's voice sounded.
"The battle report of Zhuo County is on the table.”
"Hahahaha!" Thinking of this, Liu Yan smiled again.
"Who is this Liu Yu? Not only is he a divine being, I must meet him!”
