Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 38: Persecuted by Dong Zhuo, Can't Save Himself

"It's finally here!" Wu Shun said, holding the document tightly in his hand.

This letter was written by Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, who pretended to be the third prince of the imperial court, and wrote to the states and counties. It listed Dong Zhuo's crimes and claimed that "being persecuted by Dong Zhuo, he could not save himself. Dong Zhuo's inhuman persecution has no way to save himself now, and he is anxiously looking forward to the rise of rebels everywhere to save the country from danger."

About the imperial court, Wu Shun has already learned from the information of the black guard.Even if there is no black guard, Wu Shun has the memory of his previous life, and he can probably know the major events that happened in the court.

In April of the sixth year of Zhongyuan, that is, in April 189, Emperor Liu Hong died, and the eldest son Liu Bian, who was 4 years old at the time, came to the throne and was called Shaodi.Empress He, the birth mother of the young emperor, was honored as the empress dowager and began to attend the court.

Empress Dowager He asked her elder brother General He Jin and Yuan Huai to participate in the recording of Shangshu, and the relative He's began to monopolize power!
His nephew is now the emperor, so He Jin wanted to eradicate the eunuch group, but Empress Dowager He favored Zhang Rang, Duan Gui and others, so he didn't agree.He Jin was accidentally overheard by Zhang Rang's people when he was conspiring with his subordinates.

Zhang Rang and others were also afraid of death, so they asked the Queen Mother to protect them.But He Jin is in power, and the queen mother is a woman, and she can't protect them.

No one can protect them, so Zhang Rang, Duan Gui and others became ruthless, falsely passed on the Queen Mother's order, tricked He Jin into entering the palace alone, and ambush He Jin beforehand, hacking He Jin to death.

When He Jin's subordinates learned of He Jin's death, they stormed the palace and executed the eunuch!Zhang Rang and others had no choice but to kidnap the young emperor, and the queen mother and Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu, fled.Originally wanted to find a ferry and fled to Wuling to join Wushun, but who knew that he was finally overtaken by the rebels and forced to throw himself into the river to die.

It was also fortunate that the young emperor was taken back, and if a trick really brought the young emperor to Wuling County, it would be a big deal.Wu Shun didn't want to be manipulated.

"Go to the barracks and see the results of the recruit training! I'm about to meet the heroes of this era, I'm really looking forward to it..."

Wu Shun went to the barracks with his personal guards.In Wuling County, Wu Shun formed a new army of 5000 people.The 500 barbarians were organized into the Canglang Army, with Shi Zhongyu as the general of the Canglang and Sha Moke as the deputy general.The general of Baihuying is Dongfangqiang. Since Dongfangqiang is still in Chenyang, Zhang Xiong is temporarily acting as his deputy, and Guan Hai is the deputy general.The newly formed new army does not have a designation for the time being, and Wu Shun will give it a name after training into an army.

Walking into the new barracks, I heard bursts of slogans and shouting.Every recruit is training hard and they don't want to lose.Because in the battle exercise, if you lose, you have to wash clothes for the winner for a month.In order to let others do the laundry, everyone gritted their teeth and trained without relaxing for a moment.

Wu Shun felt the atmosphere and was very satisfied.Only competition can lead to progress.Among Wu Shun's troops, Baihuying received the best treatment.It's okay to enter the White Tiger Camp if you want to, as long as you can pass the examination.The current White Tiger Camp is extremely strict in selecting soldiers.The body must be strong, the reaction speed must be fast, the martial arts must be outstanding, and the most important thing is to be loyal to Wu Shun.

Other armies can only call Wu Shun a general or an adult.And the sergeants of the White Tiger Camp all addressed themselves as the lord.They are always ready to charge for Wu Shun and attack the city!
With the increase in the number of soldiers under his command, Wu Shun was worried about the candidate for the commander of the army again, and now there is an embarrassing situation where no one is available!
Seeing that Dongfang Qiang could only be transferred back to lead the recruits.Chenyang left it to Wen Qian to take care of it alone, and Zhou Jun could help.Now that Wu Shun is the legitimate prefect of Wuling, Zhou Jun and others dare not have any bad thoughts.Besides, Wu Shun didn't do anything to those aristocratic families, he just sold some land to the government, and then lowered the rent to the tenants, so he couldn't buy and sell land privately.

"Lord!"

Seeing Wu Shun patrolling, Shi Zhongyu, who was organizing training, ran over to greet him.After the last battle in Linyuan, Shi Zhongyu admired Wu Shun very much, and felt that following Wu Shun would definitely accomplish a lot in the future, so he worshiped the lord, and he was quite confident in his ability.

"Zhongyu, how is the effect of the archers you trained? There will be a big battle soon, and the archers should be formed soon."

Wu Shun knew that Shi Zhongyu was good at archery, so he could shoot two shots and three shots at his fingertips, and his shots were extremely accurate.Even the fierce Zhang Xiong sighed himself.So Wu Shun asked him to train an archer as a long-range unit that could strike accurately.Wu Shun was very obsessed with the Qin Dynasty's crossbow array, and when he fired a volley, the arrows almost covered the sky.Just looking at the effect is enough to make people's blood boil!

"My lord, the archers are now practicing three-stage shooting! After they are familiar with it, they can participate in actual combat. As the lord always said, if you haven't seen blood, you don't count as an army!"

Shi Zhongyu is very satisfied with the training of the recruits.Because when choosing soldiers, Wu Shun asked him to choose first.Those with good qualifications, strong bodies, amazing arms, and good eyesight were all picked away by him. Of the 5000 recruits, 1000 were archers he picked out.In the Wuling area, the folk customs are tough, so the training of recruits does not take much effort.

"Go, go and see your bow and arrow troops."

Wu Shun walked towards the archers who were practicing non-stop shooting.Shi Zhongyu followed behind him to guard.

"The practice is good, let the soldiers pay attention to rest, draw the bow for a long time, the arm can't stand it."

Wu Shun reminded that training should not be messed up. Archers are very precious, so they must not be broken.

"My lord, the final arrangement is a rotation training, so they won't be hurt." Shi Zhongyu replied.

"Very good, General Shi is really extraordinary!" After affirming Shi Zhongyu's method, Wu Shun went to check other troops.

After Han Shaodi came to the throne, he would be abolished by Dong Zhuo soon, and then Shaodi and his mother, Queen Mother He, would be poisoned by Dong Zhuo.Wu Shun has notified Luoyang No. [-] to find a way to save the young emperor Liu Bian and the queen mother.Wu Shun knew that Luoyang No. [-] was quite capable.

After Dong Zhuo came to power, he wanted to win over Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and other powerful descendants, but Yuan Shao was so frightened that he fled to Jizhou, Cao Cao fled back to Chenliu, and Yuan Shu fled to Luyang City in Nanyang County.All three of them were actively recruiting troops to prepare for the war, preparing to attack Dong Zhuo.

Many things will happen in 189, but Wu Shun doesn't want to take care of these things, he doesn't have the ability yet.What he has to do now is to wait for the day when the princes raise their troops.Let's attack Dong Zhuo together, and get some benefits by the way.

If one wants to develop in troubled times, one still needs a solid base. Wu Shun has long set his sights on Yizhou, the land of abundance.In the previous life, Zhuge Liang was able to go out of Qishan seven times by relying on the financial and material resources of Yizhou, and conquered Cao Wei in the north.It is conceivable how strong Yizhou's support is.There are many mountainous areas in Wuling County, which is not suitable for large-scale farming. It can only be used as an auxiliary to defend against threats from Jingzhou.
