My son, how could you be Lü Bu?!

Chapter 112 Reactions from All Parties

It will be a success!

Tian Yan deserves to die!

I... deserve to die too!

Facing the gaze of this group of villagers.

Lu Ping was filled with apprehension and dared not linger. He hastily spurred his horse and led Lu Bu and the others away.

With Lü Ping's vanguard, they were the first to enter Yunzhong City.

The majority of the Han army, significantly smaller than when they set out, finally appeared slowly on the official road.

Just look at the number.

The villagers who lined both sides of the official road to welcome them could immediately realize that many people had died or been injured.

The Han army marched through the crowd.

Quiet sobs, and even louder cheers, erupted.

This angered Lü Ping, who had already entered Cloud City, and he remained expressionless.

early morning.

The first rays of sunlight shone on the earthen-yellow city walls, where groups of villagers moved back and forth along the official road.

Jiuyuan City.

He resided in the government office located in the center of the city.

After several months of absence, Shen Pei Shen Zhengnan, dressed in a long robe with some mud still on his hands, hurriedly walked in from outside the government office.

He strode into an inner room of the government office. Even before he reached the door, Shen Peishen Zhengnan, his face full of excitement, called out loudly.

"Uncle Fang!"

"Uncle Fang!"

"We have received news that the army has arrived in Yunzhong County, and Zizhi and the others will be back in just one or two days."

That shout from him.

They woke up Wang Yun, who was still asleep.

With tens of thousands of troops marching north, Wang Yun, as the governor of Bingzhou, took on the responsibility of providing logistics and overseeing the rear.

Wang Zhi, the governor of Wuyuan County, who was supposed to share some of the workload, was too drunk to do anything because his eldest son had died.

Left with no other choice.

Wang Yun worked beyond his capacity and barely managed to hold on until today.

I heard someone calling from the doorway.

Wang Yun, still lying in bed, opened his eyes with a bitter smile on his face.

"Stop shouting, Zheng Nan."

"Yun already knew!"

talking.

Wang Yun then got up, quickly dressed, and headed towards the door.

He pushed open the door, his face filled with emotion.

"That Lü Zizhi!"

"He really has a knack for it."

"Yun never expected that, despite being defeated on both fronts and surrounded by tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry, he would still be able to shoot and kill Tan Shihuai!"

"We utterly defeated the Xianbei! And we recaptured the camp!"

"Without Lü Zizhi, the three Han armies might have perished in the northern desert."

The door opened.

Shen Zhengnan lifted the hem of his clothes, walked into the room, and sat on the bed.

His face was also full of emotion.

"yes!"

"Some time ago, when Sun Jian fled back with the Xiongnu general..."

"Of the tens of thousands of soldiers, only a few dozen riders remain; even the envoy has been lost!"

The entire city was shocked.

"Almost every family was mourning, preparing mourning clothes, and some were even prepared for the annihilation of the entire army."

"Who knew that, in just over ten days, news of their great victory would spread again."

"This excited everyone, and even the craftsmen in the paper mill couldn't help but speed up their work when they heard the news."

"Previously, we could only produce one batch a day, but now we can produce one and a half or even two batches a day!"

Shen Pei was deeply moved.

"Zhengnan, how's your improvement of Cai Lun paper coming along?"

Hearing Shen Pei's words, Wang Yun asked curiously.

He's been busy with state affairs lately and hasn't had time to learn about the paper mill jointly run by Lü Ping and Shen Pei.

"With Zizhi's planning and the efforts of these past few months, they have already produced the finest Cai Lun paper," Shen Pei chuckled.

"They've already started selling them in these kinds of shops."

"Ever since Cai Lun's paper was nearly perfected, Cai Yong and Cai Bojie were almost more anxious than I was."

"Every two or three days, he would bring his daughter and come to ask me questions."

"Asking when Lü Zizhi will return, he's still waiting for Lü Zizhi to use the books made from Cai Lun's paper!"

During their conversation...

A servant brought breakfast and placed it on the table.

Shen Pei picked up a pastry, put it in his mouth, and said softly.

"and."

"His Cai Lun paper was indeed of excellent quality and extremely easy to write on. Once it was put on the market, it became a sensation throughout Wuyuan."

"Even Pei's clan, which was far away in Wei County, heard about it and kept urging Pei to send me a few craftsmen over."

"I'm thinking of expanding the business and spreading the sale of Cai Lun paper throughout the entire Han Dynasty."

"Since Zizhi is not present, Pei cannot make decisions on his own and has entrusted the craft to the clan."

"I was just thinking that Zizhi and the others would be going to the capital in a few days, so I sent a few craftsmen to Luoyang first."

"We opened a branch first, so that when Zizhi arrives, we can help him build momentum."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yun looked up thoughtfully and glanced at Shen Pei and Shen Zhengnan in front of him.

He nodded slowly.

at the same time.

In Jiuyuan City, there is a mansion with an extremely large area.

Compared to before, Wang Zhi, the governor of Wuyuan County, who had become much thinner, was sitting at the table.

He held a letter and read it silently.

As he continued reading...

Wang Zhi's expression grew colder and colder as he read the last part of the battle report.

He flew into a rage and slammed his fist on the table.

"You son of a bitch!"

"Useless! They're all fucking useless!"

"Useless Li Hong! I planted you here to kill Lü Ping, and you fucking fell into a cesspool and died eating shit!"

"And that Tian Yan! He's a complete scoundrel!"

"My elder brother recommended you to be the General Who Destroys the Xianbei, making you a commander of a major force."

"I'm sending you to do my bidding, not to fight in a war!"

"Not only did they not take the opportunity to kill Lü Ping, they even allowed him to perform such a great service!"

"Shoot and kill Tanshihuai! Destroy the Xianbei!"

"Damn it!"

talking.

Wang Zhi, the prefect of Wuyuan County, became even more furious and suddenly pushed everything on the table to the ground.

Crackling sounds!

The porcelain shattered, exploding into several pieces!

Wang Zhi sat at the table and took several deep breaths to calm himself down.

"No!"

"Then Lü Ping will be going to the capital to report on his duties!"

"It just so happens that my elder brother is in the capital! Ha! I'd like to see how that Lü Ping, with no background and having offended my family, will manage to survive in the capital!"

He murmured to himself.

Wang Zhi's sneer grew even colder as he picked up a sheet of fine Cai Lun paper that his servants had specially bought.

He ground the inkstone and picked up his pen, writing a letter himself.

The Cai family courtyard.

Xiao Cai was standing on a large rock in the corner of the wall, listening curiously to the conversations of the villagers passing by.

Listening to the villagers talk about the great battle in the northern desert and the few valiant generals who stood out in that battle.

Cai Yan's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

As the villagers went away, their conversations were never heard again.

Xiao Cai jumped off the stones one after another, his face full of joy, and ran towards the house with small, quick steps.

As she ran, she shouted excitedly.

"Father!"

"Uncle Lü, and Brother Lü and the others have done a great service! They'll be back soon!"
