"Alright! All charge their camp! Leave no rebel alive who dare to stand in the way of Yuan Shao's loyal followers!!" Yuan Shao yelled and all his soldiers cheered back, reforming and proceeding with a full sclae attack on the Yellow Turban encampment. As Yuan Shao just was about to take the lead a soldier appeared infront of him.
Ren zhi and pin Yu where close to the two, so they could overhear the message.
"Lord Yuan Shao, a young traveling warrior by the name of Zhao Yun, ask if he can speak with you." The soldier said, bowing deeply for his lord. Yuan Shao looked up suprised. He hadn't heard of that name before. Perhaps a ruse made up bu the turbans? He He thought about it deeply and decided that it wasn't a trap and told the soldier to bring the warrior forward.
The soldier bowed again and left, only to return again shorty there-after followed by a young man on a white steed. The young man jumped of his horse and bowed before Yuan Shao whom replied simply by saying "Speak".
"My name is Zhao Yun. I am a warrior in search of a righteous lord for me to serve. upon entering Ji province I heard about how a noble and brave Yuan Shao had come to surpress the Yellow Turban rebellion and I came to see if he truly was so. Now that I have seen you with my own two eyes I beleive that you are righteous. Please allow me to join your army." The young warrior bowed even deeper. Yuan Shao was interieugd about how Zhao Yun was talking about him and nodded. "Very well, but you better prove your worth first. We are just about to storm the remainder of the yellow turbans. Lead the way and let that weapon you are holding speak of your value. Afterwards we will see if you are fit to serve ME."
Zhao Yun nodded. "Then I shall prove my worth" And immidiatlly jumped on his white steed and dashed forward.
"hey Pin Yu!" ren Zhi said as he jumped on his own horse. "Let's see how the boy fares against the enemy. I sense that he is a strong warrior" With that he gave his horse the spurs and ran off behind Zhao Yun.

A small jealousy burned inside Pin Yu, but she didn't show it. This Zhao Yun had to prove himself to her aswell, or else she wouldn't act - well - very kind towards him. "I don't trust too much on first impressions", she smiled to Ren Zhi and rose on a new horse, "You shouldn't either, my dear Ren Zhi." She gave him a wink.
And behind that wink, another small trap was hidden. However, Pin Yu decided to keep an eye on this Zhao Yun, to see if he was threath, a traitor or perhaps an honest warrior. Either way, she didn't like him. "Let's go then!" she yelled and followed Ren Zhi.

Ren Zhi blushed a bit, quickly looking away before anyone noticed. "Yeah..well.. I'll keep that in mind" he stammered and gave his horse the spurs.
After a short march they arrived at the encampmend. Zhagn Bao and his Rebels where hold up in the entrance, making sure none could enter.
"Alright men. Charge!" Yuan Shao shouted and the pressed forward. However Zhao Yun on his white steed dashed forward, his spear clutched in his hand, charging right infrontof the baricade.
"He..he must be mad!" Zhang Bao stammered ordering his gaurds to raise their spears so this fool would smash right against their sharp points. However as Zhao Yun approached he jumped on his horse's saddle and leapt forward, with his spear ready to strike. With one aimed blow he destoryed all the spears and landed in the middle. Quick work with his skill and flexible spear he killed the yellow turbans left and right with amazing speed. The battle had ended as soon as it had started and Zhang Bao was seen fleeing.
"Wow" Both Yuan Shao and Ren Zhi said at the same time. In awe of Zhao Yun's skill.
"You foolish heathen!" Zhang Jiao angered said pointing his staff at his opponent. "Let us see how well you fare against the miracles of heaven!" I fight between them ensued, however Zhao Yun didn't seem in need of support. He cut off every attack Zhang Jiao threw at him and dodged the flames with ease. Finely Zhoa Yun leapt up high and stroke his spear down. It hit Zhang Jiao as a whip, and launched him a good few meters away. His consious body quickly carried away by a few of his personal gaurds.
Zhang Jiao's yellow turbans where defeated, and all the soldiers cheered happily. Meanwhile Zhao Yun returnend back to Yuan Shao and bowed. "You did well young warrior" Yuan Shao responded with a grin. "Feel honored that I will take you under my wing." Zhao Yun nodded. "Thank you my lord" And walked of for a well earnend rest. While he walked, he passed both Ren Zhi and Pin Yu, and made a low bow before each of them. "I had seen your fights at the altar. You both fight with great skill and fury. I am happy that we will fight alongside eachother now."
"We are not exactly wroking under lord Yuan Shao" Ren Zhi said. "We came here as aid from the Liang province."
"Aaah. That is a shame" Zhao yun said to him. "But I am sure our paths will cross eachother again." he bowed again before both and walked off, holding on to the saddle of his horse, directing the animal to move with him.
"Well, he certainly impressed me." ren Zhi said as he saw him dissapear in the huge crowd and looked back at his general. "So, I think it's time for a well earnend rest. We both fought with alot of energy, am I right?"

Unlike many others who were watching Zhao Yun, Pin Yu wasn't showing any emotions. Her sweet-as-pie face has a small frown, but other than that she didn't say a word. She did hear both Yuan Shao and Ren Zhi praise him. What was that anger burning inside her? She had no reason to feel jealous for this man. But still, if she could only be just like him, she would've never be on a battlefield in the first place.
And then Zhaon Yun complimented her and Ren Zhi. That low bow he made was absolutely ridiculous to Pin Yu. "A shame indeed", she said coldly when the young warrior walked away. She hoped very badly that he would die by a rebel's hand. Or if not, she would write his name on her blacklist, and when betraying Ren Zhi, Pin Yu would handle him when getting the chance.
But not now. Ren Zhi was impressed, she was pissed off. To hide her anger, she decided not to comment Ren Zhi's words, but instead pretend that she didn't hear his words. "Indeed you are right", she replied to his last sentence.

After a while they had returnend back to their encampment. Cheers and celebration heard from every corner and tent. However in ren Zhi's rpiavte quarters it was deadly silent on his side.
He had just returnend from a banket with Yuan Shao. Only the noblemans where invited, by title and not by talent. Pin Yu obviously wasn't allowed to come.
"Thankfully this is all over" Ren Zhi said after a while, looking over at his trusted female general. "At first I thought Yuan Shao was a nobleman worhty of his title..but now I see he is too caught up in heritage. He will not last long in this troubled age." He took a sip of his wine looking down on his hands.
"We shall return to Liang Provinve tommorow when the sun is at it's highest. Go have some sleep, or go have some fun." he smiled at her.
((Note, the next battle will be over a year (from 180 A.D to 181 A.D) You can decide what happenend during that year, if you stayed with Ren Zhi or if you ran off or something. But remember that the next fight is between us and Dong Zhuo.))

Pin Yu looked at Ren Zhi for a moment. He was actually sad for her? A smile spread on her lips as she thought of her own heritage. That was far more known than Ren Zhi could imagine.
Guan Yu.. Dad.., she thought, We'll meet one day.. You'll see just how much better I am than my brother..
"If he would only know..", Pin Yu let out and smirked, "But it doesn't matter. He'll see, sooner or later." She didn't expect Ren Zhi to understand a word from her talk. If Pin Yu wouldn't have been wounded so badly, she would've probably walked to her men to have some fun. She nodded and bowed to Ren Zhi, and made her way out of the tent.
And then she started thinking about this Zhao Yun. What a pain to see someone like that, while she was desperately trying to reach his level. In order to get back her father's respect. "General, you were amazing on the battlefield!" said one of her men to her before she could reach her own tent. "Thank you. Though I think you are confusing me with someone else." and after this sentence, Pin Yu walked past him to her tent.

((Sorry I believe there is nothing left here to say. I reread it a couple of times but you just created the perfect ending for the battle. So I believe we move on to the next, meaning Koruam's characters come back again!!!! (hopefully )
