A month has passed since the letter was sent, Lie Fan accompanied by Sun Qian and Xu Kai was observing the training of his army as Lie Fan petitioned his father to release the 115 Yellow Turbans because he wanted to include them in his army
Lie Shang at first said no as they will never be paid by the government but Lie Fan promised that all their expenses will be paid from his funds, Lie Shang finally agree and allow him to recruit them but with notes that they are not allowed to enter Huai'An until the Yellow Turbans is put down and Lie Fan agree to that demand
Lie Fan: "Master Sun Qian, what do you think of the Army we have now?"
Sun Qian: "My Lord, Sun Qian's talent in strategies and military tactics is mediocre but even I can se that even though the lord's army is only 760 men but all of them are trained and have experience in combat what we lack in number is bolstered by Quality of our men"
Lie Fan: "That's true even though our number is small but we have the experience and if I say my army is number one in experience in all of Xu Province I deserve that number"
Xu Kai: "Of course, with Big Brother's Intellect and talent no one can beat you especially now that Huai'An is like the back of Big Brothers' hand with us The Oriole have been inserted in important places and when our next brothers and sisters finish their training we can send them to Xiapi and Langye"
Sun Qian: "Haha what Little Xu saying is true, this is the first time I have ever heard of a restaurant and tavern was used as an information gathering and spy headquarters"
Lie Fan: "This is an Idea I thought of when I'm thinking about Sun Tzu's art of war which information is a vital thing we need to win a war, Now that Mother has begun to sed people to open our branch at Xiapi and Langye then our network will slowly begin to expand at least covering Xu Province first"
While Lie Fan, Xu Kai, and Sun Qian are talking suddenly there's a commotion in front of the camp where there's a messenger who was shot by an arrow in the shoulders while riding his horse enters the camp and falls off his horse when he almost reached Lie Fan
Lie Fan seeing that orders his soldiers to help the messenger while he walked towards him accompanied by Xu Kai and Sun Qian
Lie Fan: "What happened?! Why are you like this?!"
Messenger: "Young Lord *cough* Huai'An is being attacked by The Yellow Turbans numbering 6.500 men, Lord Lie Shang ordered me to hurry and help defend Huai'An as our army is defending against them right now"
Lie Fan: "What?! How could The Yellow Turbans attack right now?! They will not rebel at least until next year!"
Messenger: "I don't know why Young Lord but you have to hurry and de-def-defend Huai'An *cough*"
After saying that the messenger died and Lie Fan can't think about why would the yellow turbans rebel right now so he immediately ordered Everyone to prepare for war and in 5 minutes they will immediately reinforce Huai'An
He asks Xu Kai to protect Sun Qian alongside the Oriole members who were still there and uses a carriage to follow them from behind cause Sun Qian is their strategist and the mind of the army
Chao Bo, Chao Bai, Zang Ba, and Liu Pi each prepare their battalion with Liu Pi newly appointed as Vice Commander of the Guard Battalion as the 115 former Yellow Turbans were put there and their riding skill has been trained with Lie Fan spending 25.000 taels for the horse and equipment
Lie Fan enters his tent to equip his Armor and his Halberd, Lie Fan then left the tent with his Horse Pangu in front of his tent brought by Liu Pi who waited for him alongside his Guard Battalion
Leading his Guard Battalion alongside Liu Pi Lie Fan meets up with the others at the front of the Camp and when he sees that everyone is ready he told them to march as fast as they could together to Huai'An
They spend 20 minutes crossing 2 km to reach Huai'An and when they arrived 250 meters outside of Huai'An they saw a sea of yellow soldiers attacking Huai'An with Huai'An army defending against the invaders
Lie Fan approach Sun Qian's carriage and ask him what they should do, Sun Qian says that their number is too small to have a head-on fight so they should go around and attack the Yellow Turbans from the rear to cause panic with the cavalries do a speed and run attack to pick of Yellow Turbans soldiers
Lie Fan hearing that agrees and sends his orders to the respective Battalion Commanders on what they should do, so Lie Fan led his army go around the Yellow Turbans and began attacking them from the rear
Lie Fan lead the Guard Battalion to attack from the left flank while Zang Ba lead his Cavalry Battalion to attack from the right flank, Chao Bai and Chao Bo lead their Battalion from the center flank. The Yellow Turbans don't know what will hit them until it's too late as Lie Fan and Zang Ba battalion slice through their formation from the rear causing mass confusion
Lie Fan like a madman swings his halberd left and right, killing countless Yellow Turbans easily as they don't wear armor or only leather armor with Lie Fan's strength can be sliced effortlessly. Seeing Lie Fan rampaging across the battlefield, Liu Pi alongside The Guard Battalion morale raised and follow Lie Fan slicing or stabbing the Yellow Turbans and never stop riding
Zang Ba on the right flank meets with the Yellow Turbans Archer so his breakthrough was easy and causes massive casualties in his Battalion, the Center flank where Chao Bo and Chao Bai's battalion finally collide with The Yellow Turbans who managed to turn around but too late.
With the Yellow Turbans rear attacked, slowly the confusion goes upward toward the front where the Yellow Turbans who siege Huai'An began to panic as their rear is exposed. The Huai'An army saw the panic and sees the Yellow Turbans' rear is attacked they assumed that Lie Fan was the one who'd do that so their morale rose and began fighting back fiercely
Lie Fan who led Liu Pi and his Guard Battalion continue piercing the Yellow Turban's formation until he reached the center rear where he saw the Yellow Turban:s Commander, Lie Fan began to charge toward him to neutralize the head of the Yellow Turban's army
The YT Commander saw him and turns his horse then rides toward him with his alive to duel him, seeing that Lie Fan readies his halberd, and when they reach each other both of them swing their weapon which clashed against each other.
Lie Fan began to attack the YT Commander aggressively slashing and stabbing towards him so fast and powerful that in their fourth clash, the YT Commander is overwhelmed and his head was decapitated by Lie Fan
While Lie Fan managed to behead the YT Commander he was shot with an arrow in his right shoulder shocking him as he finally feels pain in this world 16 years after his birth where everything feels easy with the system's help, his life flashes before his eyes even though the wound is not serious but this is the first time he feels the pain
Seeing their Lord was injured Liu Pi leads The Guard Battalion to encircle Lie Fan and push towards the left to break out while Liu Pi sound his horn with a code to signal all to regroup back
Chao Bo, Chao Bai, and Zang Ba heard the horn and lead their Battalion to fall back towards their temporary headquarters where Sun Qian is, the Yellow Turban who have lost their commander don't know what to do whether to pursue or continue attacking Huai'An
Lie Fan and Liu Pi reach Sun Qian's first with Xu Kai who was trained in first aid hhelpsbandage and stitch Lie Fan with the arrow taken out slowly, Sun Qian who saw Lie Fan was injured orders Liu Pi to stay beside him and if Lie Fan insist to join the battle once again to stop him
When Chao Bo, Chao Bai, and Zang Ba arrive Sun Qian orders them to enter a defensive formation to prepare against the Yellow Turban's counterattack, and what Sun Qian predicts comes true as some of the Yellow Turbans numbering between 500 to 700 men charge towards them
Seeing that all of them are infantry, Sun Qian ordered the Archer and Guard Battalion to fire their bow at his count with the infantry battalion protecting them and the Cavalry Battalion to be mobile and picking them off
Seeing the Yellow Turbans enters the shooting range, Sun Qian orders the Archery and Guard Battalion to fire releasing 410 arrows at the oncoming Yellow Turbans, inflicting massive damage as almost all the arrows hit their target and that's when Sun Qian order Zang Ba to lead the Cavalry Battalion to charge at the Yellow Turbans
The Yellow Turbans saw that Cavalries is approaching and some of them decide to run away, decreasing their resistance power to counter the oncoming cavalries making them like a pack of sheep meeting wolfs tearing them apart
Lie Fan who was given first aid goes front began to think about how the world began to deviate from history as the Yellow Turban rebellion began one year early thanks to a letter he sent forgetting that some members of the 10 attendants joined the rebellion.
After Lie Fan was given first aid, he left the tent and joined Sun Qian with Liu Pi following behind him to protect him
Lie Fan: "Thank you Master Sun Qian for leading the army in my absences"
Sun Qian: "That's what I should do My Lord, I think now is best for us to go around again and signal for the Huai'An army to go outside and attack the Yellow Turbans while my Lord take a rest first"

Sun Qian: "That's what I should do My Lord, I think now is best for us to go around again and signal for the Huai'An army to go outside and attack the Yellow Turbans while my Lord take a rest first"
Lie Fan: "Okay then I follow what Master Sun Qian suggests, order the Cavalry Battalion to fall back and we will go around back to where we are before signals the Huai'An army to open the gate and began open field combat"
Liu Pi sounds his horn once again to signal Zang Ba to fall back, and Zang Ba who saw that maneuvers his army to go back the same way they charge at the Yellow Turban inflicting damage along the way
Lie Fan: "Zang Ba is a good cavalry general and in the future, he will be one of our cavalry battalion pillars"
Sun Qian: "My Lord was bestowed heaven's luck to receive many great generals"
Zang Ba mowed down the Yellow Turbans with his Battalion terrorizing the Yellow Turbans, in 3 minutes they arrived back at the temporary headquarters and Lie Fan orders them to go around the Yellow Turbans
The Yellow Turbans see Lie Fan's army doing around thought that they retreat so their morale rises and decide to continue attacking Huai'An, Lie Fan sends Liu Pi to lead his Guard Battalion do a shoot-and-run using their bow diverting their attention while the rest of Lie Fan army's on their march
The Yellow Turbans never faced an organized and experienced army so they were overwhelmed by Lie Fan's tactics that considered a basic tactic for a general to master, while Liu Pi was attacking the Yellow Turbans Lie Fan observed his army to see if their maneuver is done
Seeing his army have completed their maneuver, Liu Pi led the Guard Battalion to move toward their position while striking the Yellow Turbans for one last time. When Liu Pi arrived, Lie Fan began to sound the horn signaling the Huai'An army
Ling Dao who was leading the defense heard the horn and remembers what Lie Fan told him when the Yellow Turbans ever attacked he heard that horn it means Lie Fan's signal to them that they have to charge out and counterattack
Ling Dao orders the drum to signal that they will strike out at the Yellow Turbans and he ordered his Lieutenants to lead the soldiers who were not at the wall to prepare in front of the gate ready to go outside
YT Soldier 1: "Haha look at this Han army, hiding behind their walls and everyone to meet us head-on!"
YT Soldier 2: "Of course with the Yellow Heaven at our side how can we lose against Han Emperor who los-"
*DUMM!!* *DUMM!!*
The Yellow Turbans hearing the drum sound were confused at first but when they saw the gate was opening they thought the Han Army is surrendering and cheered but they saw Han Cavalry goes out and trample their brothers shocking them, from above the wall heavy stone was tossed crushing the Yellow Turbans beneath it that want to climb up the ladders who was kicked by the soldiers making it collapse
Ling Dao ordered the infantries to reinforce the Cavalry assault and the archers to shoot arrows immediately at the middle of the yellow turbans, with this Huai'An army counter begin signaling the Lie Fan army to join in
Lie Fan from afar saw what happen and send his army led by Liu Pi to join the Huai'An Army attacking from the left flank, The Guard Battalion and Cavalry Battalion was the first one to clash with the Yellow Turbans smashing them to oblivion with the infantry battalion following them behind their back and the archer battalion raining down arrows
Lie Fan, Sun Qian, and Xu Kai watch the battle from afar protected by Ariole members, They see the collapsing Yellow Turban Army with some beginning to run away deserting their army feeling the battle will end shortly
True to what they thought the battle ended in 30 minutes, Lie Fan declare his army to round up the surviving Yellow Turban soldiers and bring them toward the Huai'An army then goes back toward then he talked with Sun Qian
Lie Fan: "Master Sun Qian, the battle has ended let's go back to Huai'An and meet my Father at the City Estate to discuss what just happened"
Sun Qian: "Sun Qian will follow the Lord, why don't I ride a horse to so we will arrive faster?"
Lie Fan: "Okay, Xu Kai bring two horses one for you and one for Master Sun Qian"
Xu Kai: "Right away Big Brother!"
Xu Kai releases the two horses that were used for the Carriage and gives one to Sun Qian and the other one to him, Lie Fan sees that they were ready and ride toward Huai'An City Estate
Lie Fan and his retinue arrived at the City Estate under 15 minutes later than usual thanks to the panic that the people of Huai'An feels bad the street was in chaos when he entered the City Estate Meeting Room he saw Lie Shang sitting in his chair with the upper-rank officials of Huai'An was debating and a golden robe official sitting right below his Father
Lie Shang: "Okay Okay Everyone Silent! What we should do now is calm the people and make sure the city economy is proceeding as usual!"
Lie Fan: " I Agree with what Father said, I hope all Sir can calm down"
Hearing Lie Fan's words, everyone turn towards the entrance and saw him wearing his armor with his upper right shoulder bandaged shocking everyone
Lie Shang: "Fan'er?! Are you okay?! And how is the situation outside?!"
Lie Fan: "I'm okay Father a stray arrow hit me and the situation outside is under control we managed to defeat the yellow tub were with some casualties that were under control"
Lie Shang: "Hahaha good! good! You are truly My Son and Huai'An Future General! But remember to keep yourself safe in the future, no- cone here let me introduce you to Eunuch Lu who come here bringing the Emperor's edict but was prevented thanks to the Yellow Turbans' sudden attack"
Lie Fan: "Lie Fan meets Eunuch Lu, I'm sorry for my inappropriate attire to greet you"
Eunuch Lu: "It's okay Young Master Lie, you're just back from a heroic battle to defend us all here in Huai'An your attire can be forgiven"
Lie Fan: "Thank You Eunuch Lu for your generosity, I'm sure all of us including My Father impatiently waiting for Eunuch Lu to read the Emperor's edict"
Eunuch Lu: "Ah yes of course, *Ahem* Lord Lie Shang receive the Emperor's edict!"
Everyone including Lie Fan and Lie Shang bowed to receive the Emperor's edict as it was custom to do so and not doing it means violating the Emperor's order
Eunuch Lu: "The Land was in Chaos and rumors of a rebellion rising in Xu Province with massive numbers, We ordered all able-bodied Prefect and above to lead some of their armies and meet at Luoyang to assemble with Imperial Army led by General He Jin to quell the rebellion."
Lie Shang: " Lie Shang received the order and will go toward Luoyang as soon as possible!"
Eunuch Lu: "That's good, I will follow your Lordship towards Luoyang seeing the rebellion started faster than what we anticipated"
Lie Shang: "Of Course, Eunuch Lu can join us we will proceed toward Luoyang when everything here in Huai'An is in order"
Lie Shang ended today's emergency meeting and told all officials to keep Huai'An in order and proceed as usual now the crisis outside their city had been resolved, then he alongside Lie Fan and his retinue led Eunuch Lu and his guards toward Lie Clan Manor to rest there first while waiting for them
When they arrived at the manor, they saw the Lie Clan personal guards fortify the security of the manor. Entering the Manor they were received by Yu Yan and Ying Yue who both waited for their other half Wannian was in her room playing with her toys there just to be secure
Yu Yan and Ying Yue at first wanted to hug their other half but saw they have a guest and from the looks of it an Important one so they keep their poise to receive their guest
Eunuch Lu: "Lord Lie is not only a just and honorable leader alongside having a tiger son but a beautiful wife also, Lord Lie's life is blessed"
Lie Shang: "Hahaha Eunuch Lu is jesting, My life blessing is nowhere near the blessing the Emperor has"
Eunuch Lu: "Fufufu, What Lord Lie says is true but The Emperor will need generals like Lord Lie's son in the future to guard the Empire against invaders and rebels"
Lie Shang heard that and agree with what he said meanwhile, Lie Fan silently told his retinue to wait for him in front of his room and used his hand to signal his Mother alongside Ying Yue to dismiss themselves
Lie Fan: "Lie Fan will always serve the Emperor and destroy those who dare to oppose the Han Empire! I hope Eunuch Lu will say good things for me in front of The Emperor"
Eunuch Lu: "Fufufu, not only Young Lord Lie is a tiger on the battlefield but a fox in diplomacy"
Hearing that everyone there laughs together, Lie Shang then led Eunuch Lu toward the guest room served for the highest and most important guests that visit their Manor. After telling Eunuch Lu to take a rest and call for a servant to order lunch when he is hungry, Lie Fan told his Father to follow him as he has something to talk to with him
