Reborn In The Three Kingdoms

Chapter 20: Intelligence Squad

Arriving at the Mansion, Yu Yan goes in first to prepare the dining room to greet their guest while Lie Fan brought Mi Yu to the meeting room to wait for dinner, Lie Fan also ordered a servant to tell his father there's a guest that needs to be accompanied by Him

While waiting for his Father, Lie Fan talked with Mi Yu about common things and the Huai'An situation

Lie Fan: "What do you think of Huai'An Mr. Mi after spending some days here?"

Mi Yu: "Huai'An is a lovely city, the people here live happily and I heard that it's thanks to Young Master that eradicate many bandits around the city which make Huai'An almost free from bandits' excursion"

Lie Fan: "Haha small things to do, eradicating bandits has many benefits not just protecting the people but keeping merchants and logistic caravans safe from bandits raising the city's prosperity thanks to the numbers of merchants who keep raising visiting Huai'An for the safety"

Mi Yu: "Young Master is too humble, at young age Young Master already made many contributions to the City and the people"

While talking, Lie Fan and Mi Yu saw Lie Shang enter the meeting room booth of the stand-up to greet him

Lie Shang: "I'm sorry I'm late, I don't know that a merchant from the prestigious Mi Clan is coming to My Manor"

Mi Yu: " Lord Lie is joking, I'm just the Caravan Leader of Mi Clan who come here to trade and not from the main clan"

Lie Shang: "Aiyoo It doesn't matter what your status is, you are the only one who arrived at Huai'an which means you represent the Mi Clan here"

The Three of them continue talking about many things until they were interrupted by a servant that tells them that dinner is ready and they can join the others there. Hearing that they get up from their chairs and walked together toward the dining room, on the way there Mi Yu praises the scenery and how beautiful their gardens are, Lie Shan replied that his Wife was the one supervising the garden

The three of them enter the dining room together and saw Yu Yan, Wannian, and Ying Yue who were waiting for them. Yu Yan as the Lady of The House stand up and greeted Mi Yu who was considered their guest of honor, she introduced Wannian her daughter, and Ying Yue as Lie Fan's future wife

Sitting down together, the servants began to serve the foods and drinks for dinner which received praise from Mi Yu as there was so much food that was served just to receive him

Mi Yu: "I don't know that Young Master Lie already has a lady to be wedded to, congratulations Young Master"

Lie Fan: "Thank you for your blessing, Yue'er and I was a childhood sweetheart marrying her have always been one of my dreams"

While talking Lie Fan holds Ying Yue's hand which causes Ying Yue to blush but smile happily as she is introduced as Lie Fan's future wife

Lie Shang and Mi Yu hit off right away as the two of them talked about many things because they have similar experiences from their past, they drink wine and beer that was served with Lie Fan sometimes joining their conversation by saying a word or two.

Mi Yu was happy and promises to talk about them to the head of their Mi Clan, hearing this Lie Fan and Yu Yan's eyes shined as their goal have been achieved. Even though Mi Yu's position in the Mi Clan is not high in the hierarchy but he is still part of the Mi Clan and a mention to the head of the clan can bring some benefits as merchants only trade or form relations with someone they can trust

Lie Shang and Mi Yu drink wine and beer until they were drunk, Feeling drunk Mi Yu decides to say goodbye and was escorted by servants to his carriage while Lie Shang was brought by the servants to his room. Yu Yan accompanied Wannian to her room, Lie Fan decide to take a rest as tomorrow he have a full schedule saying goodbye to Ying Yue with a hug and a kiss on the forehead making her blush while smiling happily

The next day, after doing his daily morning routine Lie Fan says goodbyes to his family and rides his horse Pangu going to his Army Camp to train the Intelligence Squad, last night before going to sleep he copied the codes that will be used by his intelligence squad on a scroll putting it in his inventory while riding on his way towards the camp

Arriving at the Camp, he saw Chao Bo waiting for him at the front of the Command Tent, getting down from his horse he hurriedly walked toward Chao Bo

Lie Fan: "Chao Bo, why wait for me outside and not inside?"

Chao Bo: "My Lord, Chao Bo waits outside as the people you ordered to bring were already inside a new tent that was put up for them, and I will lead you there when you arrived"

Lie Fan: "I see, okay then lead the way"

While walking towards the tent where all the recruits were, Lie Fan takes out the scroll from his inventory from inside his sleeve and holds it while following Chao Bo

Arriving at the tent, he saw that it was an ordinary tent that was used for placing supplies and barracks for his soldiers Lie Fan was satisfied with it as it was not flashy and hidden in plain sight

Entering it, he saw 10 boys and 5 girls all young aged between 12-13 and when they saw Chao Bo entering the tent alongside Lie Fan all the kids stand up and greeted both of them

Lie Fan: "Hello kids no need to get up, I'm Lie Fan, and will be your Teacher to teach you the skills that you need in the future"

Boy 1: "Teacher before training can we have breakfast first?"

All the Children: "Yes Yes can we eat first, Teacher?"

Lie Fan: "Of Course, you can no need to call me teacher and just call me Big Brother okay?"

Hearing Lie Fan allow them to have breakfast first all the kids jump with joy saying thank you Big Brother, Lie Fan sees that smile and feels a bit guilty as they will be trained as a spy and maybe later on as an assassin but he decided for now to train them as a spy first then when they are a bit older he will teach them assassin skills.

After enjoying their breakfast, Lie Fan begins to teach them how to read and write alongside memorizing the Codes that they will use in the future. The 15 kids were enjoying their time as they learn how to write and read for the first time, Lie Fan teach them to use the alphabet words alongside Chinese words where the alphabet words will be used when they send letters and leave messages as a method for their communication.

Chao Bo who at first was observing Lie Fan teaching the children were pulled in by Lie Fan to learn the alphabet words as well as he will act as their leader for a while until from the 15 children one of the rises up as the leader

Spending their morning learning theoretical skills, in the afternoon Lie Fan teach them how to hide daggers or knife in their body and how to use them to protect themselves, and how to ride a horse properly. In the evening continued with how to act themselves in certain situations and how to influence others with words.

Lie Fan was giving them a packed schedule even though the 15 children sometimes complain that they were tired but still follow what Lie Fan told them to do, he was training their bodies and mind to adapt to harsh conditions to discipline them

After training they were given dinners, tables full of food attracted the 15 children immediately they eat while saying thank you for the food

Lie Fan: "Eat slowly everyone, our training is finished for today and you can enjoy your free time playing but remember tomorrow our training will continue so don't sleep late okay?"

Children: "Okay Big Brother we remember!"

Lie Fan: "Okay then enjoy your food, Big Brother will go outside with Brother Chao Bo to take some fresh air"

Hearing his name called by Lie Fan, Chao Bo joined Lie Fan outside the tent before going out he waved at the children

Lie Fan: "Chao Bo, bring more bedding for them as it's cold at night and their schedule for training is 5 days training, 1 day resting, and 1 free day they can enjoy their time. Make sure that they bonded together as families to make them more united, at their free day you can take them out to play in the city and your duty can be delegated to Chao Bai or Zang Ba"

Chao Bo: "Chao Bo listened to The Lord's orders, My Lord will you train the girls as courtesans?"

Lie Fan: "Of course not! They will be used to spy on another Noble clan and inside our clan as protection against the enemy's spies. They will be the backbone of our most trusted members and it's their job in the future to recruit and maintain the Lie Clan Intelligence network".
