Sun Qian: "Master does the Yellow Turbans know that you're stripped from your post causing you to stop the advance of your army? If so then we need to hurry and prepare as if they fight back our army will lose in a morale battle"
Lu Zhi: "The Yellow Turbans don't know what happened as I have ordered this news to be sealed and no one can talk about it until the replacement arrives"
Sun Qian: "Okay that's good them, My Lord we can begin to reorganize the army and mount up the attack while waiting for reinforcement"
Lu Zhi: "Reinforcement? What reinforcement?"
Sun Qian: "Master, General Lie Fan's letters that were sent are also asking for reinforcements to be sent here as we know that Zhang Jiao has a big army even though it's scattered right now"
Lu Zhi was happy that Lie Fan requested reinforcements as he know that Zhang Jiao's Army is big but consisted of peasants so that's why he can defeat him and cornered Zhang Jiao in Guangzhong
Lie Fan, Sun Quan, Lu Zhi, and Lie Fan retinue alongside Lu Zhi's now Lie Fan's Army officers discuss their strategies and tactics to be used against the Yellow Turbans
While in Lie Fan's Camp, they were discussing tactics for how to defeat the Yellow Turbans in Zhang Jiao's Camp all officers of the Yellow Turbans including Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang the Vice General of the Yellow Turbans army are gathering also
Zhang Bao: "Big Brother our number is massive! Why don't we just send everything we got to attack the Han Army getting us out of his encirclement!"
Zhang Liang: "Third brother you have to be patient, the numbers of our army are nothing compared to the trained and equipped Han Army if we send everything then our casualties will be too many! Right Big Brother?"
Zhang Jiao: "What Second Brother just said is right Third Brother we need to be patient, and from what I see the Han army morale is low so we need just wait for another few days we can break out from here and join our brothers in the south"
All the Yellow Turbans officers including the Zhang Brothers cheered hearing what Zhang Jiao said even though all of them don't know including Zhang Jiao that their brothers in the south have been defeated while the Han Army morale going to rise with Lie Fan has taken command and Lu Zhi acting as his strategist alongside Sun Qian
Lie Fan checked the number of his army using Sun Tzu and was shown their numbers were 34.847 not including his original soldiers where in total their number will be 40.247 Men
Sun Qian and Lu Zhi tell him to fortify their position by building defenses to hold Yellow Turbans' advances or attack while waiting for reinforcement to come to help them
Lie Fan sends his generals such as Huang Zhong, Chao Bo, Chao Bai, and Zang Ba to train their army battalion to raise morale and keep their physique ready for action
Three days passed by while both sides still doing nothing, Xu Kai finally arrived back at Liw Fan's side and inform him that their reinforcement will come led by a man named Dong Zhuo with a numbered around 40.000 from the main army
Lie Fan: "Dong Zhuo? Do they don't have another general they can send except him?"
Xu Kai: "From what I have learned Big Brother, Dong Zhuo bribe the eunuchs to choose him to become the reinforcement general"
Lie Fan: "Damn it! Dong Zhuo is a good general but he is too arrogant and tyrannical while greedy at the same time, he doesn't listen well to orders or suggestions from others except for his people"
Sun Qian: "We can't do anything now that The Emperor has ordered Dong Zhuo, now my lord should order the attack first on the Yellow Turbans distracting them and giving them no time to rest"
Lie Fan: "Then let's do this, every morning afternoon, and night sound the drum and also let the cavalry run around outside making them alert every time until they don't care about the drum sound even though we will attack them at the time"
Lu Zhi: "Little Lie tactics are pretty good, exhausting their soldiers mentally and physically let's do that first then after 3 days we attack them"
Lie Fan called for Zang Ba and ordered him to prepare all the cavalries explaining the purpose of his tactics waiting for the drum signal from the Camp, Zang Ba obey Lie Fan's order and walk out of the tent preparing the cavalries
The Yellow Turban were relaxing their guard after not seeing activities for so long so when they heard the drum sound and cavalries charging outside the camp the Yellow Turbans soldier who was outside the city using the tents was terrified when they heard those sounds
All of the Yellow Turbans get their weapons and began assuming defensive positions to counter Lie Fan's cavalries, but when they saw the cavalries only circling the city including the camp then entering back to the Han Army Camp they were confused but with the drum still sounding they keep guard for 3 hours until finally they go back to their activities
Zhang Jiao was informed of the activity but told his officers to ignore it and continue waiting for the Han Army morale to hit an all-time low, but he doesn't expect this to happen after the morning afternoon the night exhausting his soldiers
This continues for 4 days, and Lie Fan's army spirit and morale are high while the Yellow Turbans soldiers were exhausted
Sun Qian: "My Lord I think this is the time for the real attack, we send our cavalries to attack and burn their tents causing real damage while reducing the Yellow Turban numbers"
Lie Fan: "Then let's do that! Zang Ba lead your cavalries and began to attack them for real bring some wine and oils and sprinkle them everywhere in their camp while Huang Zhong with Chao Bo lead his archer unit to fire their fire arrows to light them up, Chao Bai lead the infantry to kill the Yellow Turban who ran out from their camp area make a line to let them come to you"
With Lie Fan's order, everyone began to move out while Lie Fan stayed in the camp to observe everything from afar as this battle is not important enough for him to participate at the same time reducing the chance of him getting injured
The Yellow Turban who hear the drum and cavalries hoof sound ignored them as they thought it will be just like before but soon they regret as 5.000 cavalries rush through the camps killing yellow turbans while showering oils and wines toward their tents and other facilities with for began to sprout
With the screams and sound of weapons clashing, Zhang Jiao and his high-ranking officers were alerted but it was too late when they wanted to lead their defenses there was a big fire covering their army camp outside the city
Zhang Jiao: "Hurry and open the gate, tell our brothers to come inside and tell the others to get some water to put out the fire damn it!"
Zhang Jiao's orders were done and even though the gate was opened while the water was brought outside to put the fire out but it was too late as they lost too many soldiers and the camp outside that was made as the first line of defense was burned to the ground
Lie Fan: "Our tactic achieves massive success! Now we have to wait for our reinforcements!"
Sun Qian: "My Lord, why don't we begin preparing the siege equipment the cavalry always patrol the vicinity of the city to ensure none of the Yellow Turban will leave the city while waiting for our reinforcements"
Lie Fan: "Okay then we do as Master Sun Qian said, Uncle Lu do you have anything to add to Master Sun Qian's suggestion?"
Lu Zhi: "Maybe why don't we put some trap in the field to counter the Yellow Turban retaliation?"
Lie Fan: "A great Idea Uncle Lu! Chao Bai order the infantry to make many pit traps in the field with sharp wooden spears of some leftover weapons you found on the former Yellow Turbans camp!"
Chao Bai: "Yes My Lord!"
Sun Qian's and Lu Zhi's suggestion was implemented while they are waiting for Dong Zhuo to bring the reinforcement they needed to storm off the Yellow Turbans
When they waited for 4 days suddenly 10.000 Yellow Turbans left the city led by a Yellow Turban officer targeting the siege equipment that was being built
Thanks to Lu Zhi's suggestion to make traps, The Yellow Turbans' advance was halted and Lie Fan orders the Archer to shoot at them while the infantry made a shield wall waiting for the Yellow Turban's arrival and the cavalry will do a pincer attack from both of Yellow Turbans flank
The Yellow Turban's attack was finally put down and the surviving members were captured as prisoners' army with the promise of freedom and meeting their families back
Zhang Jiao seeing the attack to destroy the siege equipment failed to feel exhausted with anger and suddenly he vomited some blood causing everyone around him to panic as if he dies so does their movement
Lie Fan and his army continued to wait for Dong Zhuo and after another 4 days they finally saw from afar 40.000 men marching towards them with the Han flag and another flag with the word Dong fluttering thanks to the wind blowing the flag

Lie Fan and his army continued to wait for Dong Zhuo and after another 4 days they finally saw from afar 40.000 men marching towards them with the Han flag and another flag with the word Dong fluttering thanks to the wind blowing the flag
Lie Fan: "Dong Zhuo is here now, everyone doesn't have to heed whatever he says and just agrees with him, his temper is too big to control, and let me and Uncle Lu be the ones who will talk to him"
Lu Zhi: "What little Lie says is right, if you don't want to be offended you can leave now"
Some of the Young generals choose to leave as they were afraid to be too hot-headed and caused some trouble when Dong Zhuo talked smack to them
Lie Fan and Lu Zhi accompanied by Lie Fan's retinue wait outside the Camp to receive Dong Zhuo personally as he knows to not offend this Man before the Anti-Dong Zhuo alliance starts in the future keeping history according to his knowledge
Dong Zhuo who was leading his army alongside his trusted advisor and son-in-law Li Ru saw Lie Fan's group waiting for them in front of the camp inciting a laugh from him
Dong Zhuo: "Wenyou (Li Ru's second name), look these bastards are receiving me as they know I'm the superior one here Hahaha!"
Li Ru: "My Lord is the greatest general in Han and with this Subordinate intellect The Lord is unstoppable"
Dong Zhuo: "Hahaha! Wenyou know how to say the right words! Now let me see this Lie Fan who was praised as the Youngest General to serve The Imperial Army!"
When the two parties met, Lie Fan was the first one to greet Dong Zhuo with his title and respect showed as to not offend this madman. Dong Zhuo returned the greeting while saying that Lie Fan is still young so it is okay to ask others for help sarcastically
Lie Fan who has heard more nasty words in the modern era doesn't care and with the epiphany he got when he was injured he already began to show signs of his mental maturing, while some of his generals were angry but managed to hold back their tongue
Lu Zhi: "This Old Man hasn't seen General Dong since the banquet at the Capital I don't know if General Dong still remembers me"
Dong Zhuo: "Of course, I still remember Master Lu my son-in-law Wenyou always told me that Master Lu is the greatest advisor living right now"
Lu Zhi: "Hahaha your son-in-law praises too highly of me, Why don't General Dong and Master Li join me and General Lie to discuss our strategy for the battle?"
Dong Zhuo: "Hahaha Of course! Master Lu may lead the way!"
Lie Fan and Lu Zhi lead Dong Zhuo alongside Li Ru to the Command Tent, in there the map of the city has been laid, and Lie Fan informed both of them of what have they accomplished
Dong Zhuo: "General Lie is young but already very ruthless Haha! Looks like General Lie has learned the first rule of warfare and that is to be ruthless"
Lie Fan: "General Dong is the more experienced one than me, my ruthlessness is nothing compared to you who have defended our border against foreign enemies"
Lu Zhi: "Generals, please stop praising each other haha! So I propose our next step is to immediately siege the city while The Yellow Turbans' morale is down"
Li Ru: "Why don't we smoke the city while at it, causing panic and making them harder to breathe causing some sickness also"
Sun Qian: "Master Li Ru's tactics are too poisonous and not ethical, what will the people inside the city feel!?"
Li Ru: "We are here to win a war and destroy a rebellion, the people inside the city is already a rebel when they opened their gate for the Yellow Turbans"
Sun Qian: "But the pe-"
Lu Zhi: "Enough! What Master Li Ru propose is ingenious while it's too poisonous we can use it as I have confirmed that inside the city are Yellow Turbans soldiers and their families"
Lie Fan and Dong Zhuo agree to the plan, while Lie Fan feels that the strategy will kill many innocents but this is a battle, and he can't care about all life in the country in which Sun Qian can only sigh and accept the decision
The Next day under the order of both Lie Fan and Dong Zhuo the siege of Guangzhong began, siege equipment was carried out while fire arrows were shot inside the city to cause fire making the city full of smoke
The Yellow Turbans who at first defending the walls trying to shoot arrows at the Han soldiers slowly coughed and their line of sight is hindered thanks to the smoke that was caused by the fire
Zhang Jiao sees what happened and can predict what tactics the Han Army doing, In a panic he ordered Zhang Bao to lead some soldiers and put out the fire while ordering Zhang Liang as well to tell the soldiers put their scarves on their and noses to act as a mask
With the Yellow Turbans' resistance weak, Lie Fan's and Dong Zhuo's armies used this chance to attack the gate and put up ladders to attack the Yellow Turbans atop the wall.
Lie Fan sends Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng alongside Xu Kai and some members of Oriole to slip into the city alongside his army and capture Zhang Jiao if they can or assassinate him and take his head back to Lie Fan to be sent to the Imperial Court
He does this to prevent Dong Zhuo from taking merits that are not his and halting his promotion for a bit, Lie Fan observes the battle with Sun Qian and Lu Zhi while Dong Zhuo was accompanied by maidens that he brought personally enjoying their care only Li Ru observing the battle
Sun Qian: "My Lord, look at Dong Zhuo how can he still playing with those women while his soldiers sacrifice their life for his selfish purpose"
Lie Fan: "Let him be, We still need him, and while he doesn't do anything that sabotages our plan then whatever he does is not our business, Master Sun Qian is older than me but still can't keep calm haha!"
Sun Qian heard what Lie Fan said and was ashamed promising that he will try to learn to be stoic facing people like this, they continue to observe the battle while Lie Fan gave some orders to attack here and there
On the other side, Bo Cai, Zhang Mancheng, and Xu Kai alongside Oriole members managed to slip into the city with their army managed to hook the walls after taking it over from the Yellow Turbans
After interrogating some Yellow Turbans they managed to capture, they know that the Yellow Turbans high ranking officers are inside the city estate with Zhang Jiao guarded by the officers
Bo Cai: " Why didn't we pretend we are former Yellow Turbans leaders that managed to escape the Han army pursuit and ride here to join the Main army?"
Zhang Mancheng: "That's a good idea, Little Xu and the others can wait outside after we managed to say helping them evacuate the city from the secret entrance we managed to find!"
Xu Kai: "Okay then I will wait outside, Brother Bo and Brother Cheng better be fast okay"
Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng acquiesce to what Xu Kai said and they managed to slip enter the City estate disguised as their former identities
When Zhang Jiao heard that there were Yellow Turbans officers from another province seeking refuge he told them to enter while telling Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao to lead the defenses he was safe here now with Yellow Turbans officers coming here
Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao followed Zhang Jiao's order and left him to be guarded by Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng not knowing that this will be the last time they will see Zhang Jiao
Zhang Jiao was happy that there are surviving officers from other provinces and when he asked them how they managed to enter the city, Bo Cai says that there were hidden entrances they managed to find so he come here to show him the location
Zhang Jiao was skeptical at first and decided to follow him but bringing 30 personal bodyguards, Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng saw the number of his bodyguard gritted their teeth, and calculated that with Xu Kai and the Oriole member's help, they can defeat them
Leaving the city estate, Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng bring them towards a quiet and deserted street where suddenly Xu Kai and the oriole shot arrows at Zhang Jiao's bodyguard while Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng pretended to guard Zhang Jiao but knocked him out and then kill the rest of the bodyguards.
Xu Kai was picking up the unconscious Zhang Jiao when his body book fell when He opened he found letters between Zhang Jiao and members of the 10 attendants, he thought that Zhang jiao bringing this with him everywhere as he doesn't anyone to know about the contact
Seeing the success of their mission, Bo Cai, Zhang Mancheng, and Xu Kai left the City from the walk that Lie Fan's army controlled to evade Dong Zhuo's army, Xu Kai goes back toward the command tent to inform Lie Fan while Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng bring Zhang Jiao to Lie Fan's tent
Xu Kai: "Big Brother, We have managed to complete your order and the live package is waiting inside your tent"
Lie Fan: "Good! Master Sun Qian and Uncle Lu, I give commands to both of you as I have something urgent to do at my tent"
Dong Zhuo: "Hahaha! General Lie is still young so I understand what you wanted to do, no need to be shy in front of me it's okay to feel that way when your adrenaline is through the roof Haha!"
