The dark haired woman nodded to herself, satisfied. There had been no major uproar about her presence, nor any objections. And that was fine with her. She had expected it to be grim when she had seen the remnants of the surprise attack, and could only hope to be a moral booster and bring fresh bodies into the conflict. The woman adjusted in her saddle and turned Syto to face her troops, who waited patiently and quietly for her orders. She had trained them well.
"The Assassination of the True Emperor by Dong Zhuo is why we have rushed here, from our own land so far away. You are my finest, representing those who cannot fight against the man who's forceful takeover cannot and will not be accepted by the people. You are here for Justice, you are here for peace... You are here for Victory!!"
A cheer went up from the mounted men, excitement crackling in the air. The Beautiful Devil continued, "Now, we will join those with similar intent in battle! Men, forward!" Yue Xifeng and her Hundred Horse Lancers head toward the Shoreline to look for a ride into battle!

The night stood somewhat silent to say the less as more and more Han soldiers began to board the allied ships. A full moon stood alone, brihting the night sky, almost looking as if God himelf was just quietly watching the Allied troops embark on the next sea shore for further information about the enemies main army, a gentle mist somewhat covered the sky and all could be heard was the footsteps of the soldiers and the sound of the boats as sweeps across the ocean.
Meng himself stood alone, just watching as his troops prepare to push off, just thinking of the major battle yet to come, Meng was inturuputed by one of his Veteran soldiers
"Lord Meng a fellow ally general approchas the ship."
Meng then quickly turns towards the entrance Of the ship to see a man that was not very or even fimiliar to him, never has he seen this man before, but for him to be a general under the ranks of the allies forces it was surely to be alright at the time, besides the more troops with Meng the better he feels, but at the same time it is good to be more carefull than friednly at times. Looking at the man approach Meng whom was accompany by some of his men, he responded of what he had to say.
Yes.....of course we will General, we will see to it that yout troops are as comfortable as possible...but please I don't not know your name.....Mine is Lu Meng."

An Bo turned, not at all surprised a general was refereed to. He knew full well the military protocols.
An Bo paused for a long, deep moment. Just long enough to drink in the nervous smell of the lower ranking solider that pondered what would become of this precarious scene. He was very out of place on this field and in the chaos of the night and battle friend or foe could be one in the same. After enough time had passed, An Bo turned and spoke.
"Lu Meng, or rather General Lu Meng." An Bo's thick and deep voice spoke.
"I am An Bo, and I am no general for I have no men in thrall. I wish to cross the river, for I have business with those on the other side. "
Another long pause. An Bo tilted his head to show his scarfed face and contrasting eyes. One glittered in the low light of the moment, while the other was sunk in shadow.
"If you will excuse me general, I shall board now. The path of vengeance must be as swift as it is cold. " And An Bo turned, meaning to board the boat, but moving slowly in doing so.
(( note that my rp has not included the 100 men allotment, nor my signature troops. I am basically looking for passage to join the battle on a single rp level.))

Zhang Liao's forces, having been relatively inactive in the last encounter, were eager for a fight. The general, having fallen victim to Han incompetence once during the encounter, was in no rush to place the lives of his men in their hands again. Watching the overzealous officers charge toute suite into what very well could be a trap laid by Dong Zhuo.
Pondering the situation from atop a hill, and noting a handful of fires, Zhang Liao turned to his lieutenants.
"Lieutenant Hong," Zhang Liao said, shattering the eerie silence. "Take your skirmishers and assist in dousing any fires that yet remain. Lieutenant Chang, take your spearmen and see if you can tend to the wounded as they wait for professional medical attention."
Beckoning to the ten men wielding a pair of swords, Zhang Liao moved towards the shoreline, with the intent to board a ship with another general seeking the opposite coast.

Yue Xifeng and her Hundred Horse Lancers head toward the Shoreline to look for a ride into battle! Qu Yi's advance force had just departed when Zhang He heard the sound of hooves. Turning about, he saw a small force approaching the river flying, friendly colors. Scanning the shoreline, he noted that most of the boats were already full. He stepped toward the fast-approaching force and hailed the leader. "Do you need a lift?" Junyi called out. As they neared, he recoiled slightly and muttered to himself. "Oh, a woman? Well, well, well, a most beautiful turn of events." He called to the lady at the cavalry's head again. "I have additional room on my ships for your men if they don't mind being relegated to the rear of the formation. Most of my men are already on board, you see." He bowed low as he finished, and noticed another general approaching. "Hail, Wenyuan! I take it you need a lift as well? There's room enough if you don't mind sharing with her horses."

Xifeng came to a half near the...erm, Man as he called out to her, offering her and her troops a way to the opposite shore. To this, she rewarded him with a slight smile, which tugged at the corners of her mouth. She dismounted from her horse and walked Syto and herself over to Junyi, dipping her head in agknowlagment. No bow, she hardly ever did that, now matter who the person was...
"I appreciate your offer, and will take you up on it." The Beautiful Devil told him, motioning for her men to load up. She had no problem placing them in the back... they really were of no use on the water, now were they? The bow should be reserved for those who could fight on the water... in case they needed it.
"Sir..." Her tone implied she wanted his name, and she watched him for a moment longer before allowing her golden gaze to flick back to watch her troops load, which they were doing. Man she had them whipped... Xifeng accepts the offer and loads up!

Zhang Liao offered a slight bow to Zhang He and the woman with him. Gesturing for his men to crowd onto the boat, Zhang Liao followed them aboard, hoisting his halberd to his shoulder.
"I am Zhang Liao of Mayi, my lady. The majority of my forces are currently engaged in tending to the wounded, so you'll forgive me if I currently only possess a scant force. And on that note, do we have any information on the enemy dispositions and strengths?"
Zhang Liao noted his troops were on board, giving the signal to one of Zhang He's men to prepare to depart.

"From what I understand, the enemy was last seen fleeing with their tails between their legs. What few men they have left were headed toward the east bank, and the main force has set out to pursue them. They should catch up with them soo.." Zhang He trailed off as his men shouted form the boats. Junyi turned and squinted at a light in the distance, before his eyes widened. "Oh my, it seems our proud fleet could use some assistance. Come, we must hurry." He leaped onto one of the lead boats, which prepared to set out. Meanwhile, the sailors manning Xifeng Yue's and Zhang Liao's ships started preparations for launch.

Zhang Fei scratched the back of his head as he watched the Allied Fleet form up on the river.Fei felt a little left out,but supposed he wouldn't be able to catch up to them anyway.
Yide turned to Guan Yu and spoke aloud.
"Well,it looks like the Allies won't be needing us for this one.Heh,maybe they will come begging for our help if Lu Bu is on the other side.Now that i think about it! The enemy probably has a trap waiting for us on the beaches!"
Fei hollered franticly,he was very animated as he explained his suspicsions to his brother,Guan Yu.

"Even so. We shall assist them Zhang Fei. There is a possibilty that Brother Liu is here."
Guan Yu spoke before heading towards his unit. Once he knew they were prepared to go they headed towards the boats.

"I guess so.It would be nice to see him,though.Let's go!"
Zhang Fei motioned for his unit to follow him as he trotted his horse over to the few remaining ships.Fei and his Cavalry then boarded the ship.The Ship they had taken had an open deck which meant that the Cavalry could stand upon it.
The 65 Mounted Soldiers formed into a square on the deck with Zhang Fei sitting atop his horse in front of the columns.The Green Banners of Zhang Fei flew from the Masts of the Ship as it set off to rendevous with the Allied Fleet.

From behind Zhang Fei's ship, a fairly small ship with Blue and White Banners flying from its mast slowly and cautiously approached. On it were roughly six hundred infantry and four hundred calvalry, the Calvalry keeping to the back while the infantry were mingled, soldiers with Shields standing in front of Archers who stood somewhat at attention, and were honestly somewhat drunk. Despite this they stayed in well-ranked lines and seemed to have no intention on firing on what they considered allied ships, floating behind the ranks of Zhang Fei.
