Chapter 1: Troubled Times

Next Chapter

"The dust and sand iron of the halberd have not been sold, and they will be washed and recognized by the previous dynasty. Dongfeng does not have a relationship with Zhou Lang, and Tongque Chun locks Er Qiao. This Chibi Fu from the famous poet Li Mu of the Tang Dynasty has heard of it compared to every Chinese, and the story of the Three Kingdoms is even more well-known, rolling the Yangtze River east of the water, the waves are sweeping away the heroes, in that era of heroes, countless heroes and heroes are swaying their youth to chase the Central Plains. Our story will also begin with a modern teenager's dream of returning to the Three Kingdoms.

On a rainy night in the summer of 2020, Yun Mengtian, who was in college, was 20 years old and was playing the glory of the king with his friends as always, and suddenly a bright light mixed with roaring thunder struck Yun Mengtian's house, Yun Mengtian only heard a roar, and the light in front of him was extremely bright, so he fainted, I don't know how long it took, Yun Mengtian was awakened by a noise, he slowly opened his eyes, and the one in front of him shocked him, he was now on a hillside, and under the mountain were two armies facing each other, Party B's flag reads "Han" and the other party is "Dong", at this time, Yun Mengtian saw this formation and only thought that this must be a dream, Yun Mengtian muttered in his heart: I still have to go back to play the game, we are all about to push the opposite crystal, out of this moth. Yun Mengtian pinched his face hard and wanted to return to reality, and with a sharp pain, Yun Mengtian realized that he was not dreaming!

Yun Mengtian looked at the majestic scene of the confrontation between the two armies under the mountain, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the eldest husband should lead the army to chase the Central Plains like the commander of the army under the mountain. At this moment, the smoke and dust on the flanks of the Dong army under the mountain, a large number of heavily armored cavalry were moving, Yun Mengtian muttered in a low voice: It is worthy of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, it seems that the Dong Army is going to take the initiative to attack the Han army. At this time, Yun Mengtian looked at the ragged and untidy Han army on the other side, guessing that this must be an army that has not been formed for a long time, at this time, the Han army saw the heavy cavalry of the Dong army coming violently, and the morale of many Han troops began to waver, and even more so, some soldiers were already looking around, so the result was self-evident. As the heavy cavalry of the Dong army gradually approached the position of the Han army, and the infantry of the Dong army also began to advance under the command, Yun Mengtian looked at such a well-organized army, and the general who led the team must be a good general. Back on the battlefield, Dong Jun had already rushed into the Han army at this time, and the shouts of killing on the battlefield shook the sky! With the impact of the heavy cavalry of the Dong army on the flank, the flank of the Han army gradually became unable to support and began to break and flee, at the same time, the Han army on the flank saw the soldiers in front of them fleeing for their lives and began to flee, at this time Yun Mengtian noticed that there was a person in the Han army, wearing black armor, holding a sword that seemed to be very sophisticated and waving, it seemed that this Han army general was trying to stop the soldiers who were trying to escape and reorganize the team, but at this time, in the face of the absolute superiority of the Dong army, the Han army was already in a very disadvantageous position, and the Han army began to collapse completely, At this time, the situation on the battlefield was already very obvious, but the Han army general was calm and composed, and he was still trying to reorganize the army, but Yun Mengtian knew very well that the Han army was more than lucky in this situation.

The Dong army's offensive is like thunder and slashes towards the valley! The entire battlefield has become a slaughterhouse, Yun Mengtian was very frightened when he saw this scene, he was just a 20-year-old young man, who had never seen such a formation in the comfortable environment of modern society, and he was very frightened. Crying and shouting were everywhere on the battlefield, and some Han soldiers jumped into the river in a panic, and the Han general also broke out of the encirclement and fled into the deep forest on the side under the escort of several lieutenant generals. Yun Mengtian saw this scene and sighed: One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither! Yun Mengtian thought in his heart that since the war was about to end, Dong Jun would definitely launch a search in the nearby area in order to annihilate the deserters, and he might be arrested at that time, thinking of this, Yun Mengtian was very frightened in his heart, and he also began to plan to quickly get out of here, at this time, Yun Mengtian thought that he might be able to make a big difference by relying on his advantage of knowing some historical trends in the Three Kingdoms era from modern times, Yun Mengtian thought in his heart that if he could defect to the broken Han army at this time, he might have a way out. Yun Mengtian began to move in the direction of the Han generals' breakthrough. At this time, the sky gradually turned dark, and Yun Mengtian thought to himself: This situation is not good, now this place is full of deep forests, in case there are wild beasts infested, it will be a big deal. Yun Mengtian was running along the path at this time, and he happened to pick up some clothes left by the Han army when they fled, and he also picked up a Han sword. Yun Mengtian quickly changed his modern clothes into the clothes of the Han soldiers, thinking to himself, I will definitely be accepted by the Han army if I dress up like this to find the Han army, at this time Yun Mengtian was in a hurry, he saw that the lights in the west were bright, and he wanted to go to the vicinity first.

It didn't take long for Yun Mengtian to successfully reach his destination, it was really a small town, Yun Mengtian entered the town, and saw a house with the word "驿" written in Li, Yun Mengtian thought to himself, it was getting late, it was better to ask the post owner for some information first. Then Yun Mengtian walked into the post station, and when the post station saw that it was a person who looked like an officer and soldier came in, he greeted him, and the owner of the post station said: The official is good, but you need to spend the night in the small people's shop, Yun Mengtian had an idea at this time, and thought that he couldn't agree casually, I came to ask for information,

Yun Mengtian said: Recently, I heard that bandits are rampant here, and the boss may be nearby?

The boss replied: This is an unknown town next to Hongnong County, because the county is nearby, so there are no robbers.

Yun Mengtian came to his senses at this time, the battle just now may be the battle of Hongnong in the history of the Three Kingdoms, the general of the Han army may be Cao Cao, and the Dong army may be led by Xu Rong, the general of Dong Zhuo.

Yun Mengtian said to the boss: I received an order from my superiors to come here, and if you have any situation, you can report it to me at any time. Hearing this,

The boss immediately replied: Okay, sir.

Yun Mengtian thought at this time: I am penniless now, the store will definitely not accept me, I have to hurry up and find the Han army camp. Thinking of this, Yun Mengtian immediately left the post station and went straight to the west, at this time Yun Mengtian knew that he had to give up his illusions at this time, he needed a lord who could let him play his talents.

After a whole night, Yun Mengtian couldn't take another step, he was in a hurry all night yesterday, but Huang Tian lived up to his wishes, he saw a deserted village in front of him, Yun Mengtian thought that this place must have been burned by Dong Zhuojun, and history records that Dong Zhuo ordered the surrounding area of Luoyang to be burned down when he retreated to Chang'an. Seeing the scene of the village being burned down, Yun Mengtian couldn't help but sigh at the pain of the people in the troubled times. He found some food in the village and continued to hurry, after about two days, Yun Mengtian finally arrived in Luoyang, but at this time Luoyang was in ruins, but there was still a Han army guard, at this time Yun Mengtian hurriedly walked to the broken city gate, at this time the city gate guard asked Yun Mengtian which general was under the command,

Yun Mengtian replied: In Xia Nai, the soldiers who escaped from the battle of Xingyang, our army was defeated and could only retreat, but the thief army chased after them very quickly, and had no choice but to be separated from the main force, so they had to return to Luoyang to find the king's division!

The guards at the city gate saw that this person had a good reputation, so they led Yun Mengtian to Cao Cao's army.

At this time, the Cao camp was empty, and there were only two soldiers at the door, and those two soldiers sent Yun Mengtian to Cao Cao's tent.

Cao Cao asked Yun Mengtian at this time, have you seen any other soldiers who escaped?

Yun Mengtian told Cao Cao what had happened, and Cao Cao saw that Yun Mengtian was talking extraordinarily, so he ordered the soldiers to take Yun Mengtian in and ordered Yun Mengtian to accompany him.

Yun Mengtian thought in his heart: Cao Cao is worthy of Cao Cao, quite courageous, and at the same time, Cao Cao ordered the remaining soldiers under him to immediately rectify and prepare to set off to Yangzhou to recruit troops, so Yun Mengtian finally settled down temporarily.

About two days later, Yun Mengtian was ready to set off for Yangzhou with Cao's army, before leaving, Cao Cao went to the coalition camp to meet with the generals from all walks of life, this was the first official meeting of the princes after the Battle of Xingyang, at this time Yun Mengtian was also in the meeting around Cao Cao, Cao Cao entered the meeting site, and the princes discussed,

Yuan Shu was the first to attack: Yo, isn't this Cao Cao, the general of Xingfenwu, Cao Mengde? I heard that Cao Jun suffered a big defeat in Xingyang, but because of this matter, I had already told Brother Meng De that Dong Jun was not satisfied with 10,000 and was invincible.

When the other princes heard this, they laughed,

Dongjun Taishouqiao ridiculed Cao Cao: You didn't listen to our advice to attack Dong Jun, which led to a lack of victory, and it was ridiculous that you almost lost your own life, I heard that no one in the Rujun camp cooked, hahahaha!

Cao Cao was not hysterical when he heard this,

Instead, he said to the princes that Dong Zhuo hijacked the Son of Heaven and burned Luoyang, which caused the world to be angry, and the princes should have taken this opportunity to send troops against Dong Jun! If Yuan Shu Yuan Highway at that time, you led the army of Nanyang into Xuanyuan, Saitaigu, and Linwuguan to Zhensanfu, so how dare the Dong army send troops to counterattack! Jizhou Mu Han Fu Han Wen Festival you led the division of Jizhou to Lin Mengjin, in the flank to deter Hongnong Dong Jun, Dong Zhuoan dared to despise us and others, Bohai Taishou Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu led the rest of the princes to march into Hangu Pass, Dong Zhuoan can continue to plague the court in Chang'an.

As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, the princes were silent.

At this time, Yuan Shao said to Cao Cao, Meng De should not be angry, quickly sit down to drink wine and eat meat, the past is over.

Cao Cao stood in the center of the tent.

Say it loudly: Shaft, lack and conspiracy!

He instructed us to withdraw from the Allied camp and prepare to go to Yangzhou.

Yun Mengtian couldn't help but sigh: all the princes put the country and the nation in disregard for their own selfish desires, which is really sad, Yun Mengtian looked up at the red sky reflected by the sunset, and couldn't help but sigh, this is the situation of the Han Dynasty at this time, the sun is about to set, and the darkness is coming!

Accompanied by the rumbling drums, it was like an earthquake

Cao Cao's fierce general Cao Hong shouted loudly: General Feng Fenwu ordered the army to pull out the camp and set off!

At this time, the Cao army, which had less than a thousand soldiers but was as neat as a forest, set off in the direction of Yangzhou.

Yun Mengtian couldn't help but sigh: Cao Cao really knows the art of war.

About a few days later, Cao's army arrived outside Yangzhou,

At this time, Cao Cao asked Yun Mengtian beside him: What do you think of the south? What is our army's plan to recruit southern soldiers this time,

Yun Mengtian was taken aback at first, this was the first time that the lord took the initiative to ask himself a question.

Yun Mengtian replied: It is a wise decision of the lord to recruit troops to the south, and the minister thinks that it is very wise, first, at this time, the northern Yanyu land has experienced the plundering of the princes, and the people are quite dissatisfied with the officers and soldiers, and it is not easy to recruit troops. Second, the land of Yangzhou was the land of Wu Chu in ancient times, and the soldiers of Wu Chu were known for their high morale, and the southerners were good at water, which was of great benefit to the lord to cross the Yellow River in the future.

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this: Mengtian is still very knowledgeable,

Yun Mengtian saw Cao Cao happy at this time, so he also said: It's just that there is still a little bit of worry: Of course, it is easy to recruit soldiers from the south, but if our army wants to return to the north in the future, what should these soldiers do when they are homesick? This can be an unspeakable risk to the military.

Cao Cao said: What you said is very true, this is one of the places I am worried about, but our army is now small, and there is no way.

After saying that, Cao Cao ordered Cao Hong to enter the city to recruit troops, and ordered Yun Mengtian to set up a new commander of the Southern Army in the future.

Yun Mengtian immediately said: The general expects so much from me, I will definitely live up to General Cao! At this time, Yun Mengtian sighed: Cao Cao is really a good person, with such a person, there is hope in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms.

At this time, his eyes returned to Guanzhong, and Dong Zhuo was drinking and having fun in the palace at this time: What's the use of those wastes in Kanto, Lao Tzu is not enjoying happiness in Chang'an! Someone to drink! , Dong Zhuo stayed in the palace all day, and he didn't go to the court meeting, at this time Situ Wang Yun was worried,

After returning home, Wang Yun couldn't help crying when he thought of this experience: My 400-year-old Han Dynasty has fallen to this!

At this time, Diao Chan, the adopted daughter of Wang Yun next door, heard her father crying, and hurried to Wang Yun's side and asked what made Wang Yun so sad.

At this time, Wang Yun saw that his adopted daughter was as beautiful as a flower, so he had a plan

Wang Yun thought to himself: If I send Diao Chan to Dong Zhuo's side, I will have a chance to get rid of this thief, and Wang Yun heard that Diao Chan has a very good personal relationship with Dong Zhuo's general Lu Bu, so there is also a chance to disturb Dong Jun.

At this time, Wang Yun said to Diao Chan, only you can save her in the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty!

Diao Chan was shocked when she heard this, and said: How can I save the country as a weak woman?

Wang Yun told Diao Chan about his plan, Diao Chan cried and ran out of the house after hearing it, Wang Yun had another plan, first pretending to marry Diao Chan to Lu Bu and then seducing Dong Zhuo's old thief, at this time Wang Yun knelt outside Diao Chan's room,

Wang Yun said: The four-hundred-year-old Han Dynasty is now only able to save you, Wang Yun shouted: My father knows that you love Lu Bu, but the country is like this, there is no way, if you don't agree, your father will kneel and die here!

Diao Chan thought about it for a long time, and finally agreed to Wang Yun, so far Guanzhong is about to change dramatically because of a woman!

At this time, Cao Jun successfully recruited more than 3,000 soldiers in the Shouchun area of Yangzhou at that time, and at this time, our protagonist Yun Mengtian was appointed as the commander of the first army, which was one of Cao Cao's guards and directly subordinate to Cao Cao himself. As the snare drum sounded again, Cao Cao inspected the army on a large scale for the first time after the Battle of Xingyang, and saw that the newly recruited recruits were all neatly trained by his subordinates.

Cao Cao laughed and said: It is worthy of my Cao Mengde's army, it should be like this, moving like a tiger, quiet like a deep forest! Good!

Cao Cao saw that the new army was neat and couldn't wait to order all the armies to prepare to return north to Yanzhou immediately, because at this time Cao Cao's childhood friend Yuan Shao had a falling out with his brother Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao needed to contain Yuan Shu in Yanzhou, so he appointed Cao Cao as the Taishou of Dongjun to govern Wuyang in the east, and it was because of this that Cao Cao couldn't wait to return to Yanzhou Dongjun. But what Cao Cao didn't know was that this seemingly well-groomed army had a difficult problem to solve, that is, the southern soldiers would leave their homeland and go to the north, and the morale of the army would be unstable. At this time, Yun Mengtian was happy to see that the Lord was fair, and it was not easy to persuade him directly, for fear of being suspicious of Cao Cao, after all, Cao Cao was an old traitor and could not be careless. In this way, Cao Jun embarked on the road back to Yanzhou with hope and restlessness.

When Cao's army marched to the boundary of Ruyin County (this place is the junction of Yangzhou and Yuzhou), there were rumors in the army that Cao's army would attack Liu Dai in the north and would not return to Yangzhou. Therefore, Cao Cao can't control it so much, after all, the soldiers are expensive and fast! It was night when Cao's army marched 20 miles, and Cao Cao saw that the soldiers were exhausted and ordered to rest for six hours. The excessive march made the soldiers below more and more frightened and angry, and finally all the resentment began to erupt in a concentrated manner, starting with a soldier shouting in the middle of the night that the enemy is attacking! Our army was defeated, and everywhere in the barracks fire prevention at this time Cao army was in chaos in an instant, the soldiers began to scatter and flee, Yun Mengtian found that the situation was urgent, and feared that the lord would lose his public and immediately led his subordinates to guard Cao Cao's camp, and at the same time there were Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan two brothers,

At this time, Yun Mengtian took the opportunity to offer advice to Cao Cao: Now that the army is in turmoil, the first rebel must be beheaded in order to calm the army's heart, and the lord will order: order all armies not to move again, and those who move will be regarded as enemies!

Cao Cao was overjoyed and said to Yun Mengtian: You know my heart very well! He ordered Cao Hong to give the order, and sure enough, the military camp immediately settled down, and Cao Hong and Yun Mengtian immediately arrested the troublemakers and beheaded them in public. At this time, Cao Cao ordered that the southern soldiers did not want to leave quickly if they did not want to follow the general, and the general would never pursue it, but at this time, no soldier left, so Cao's military heart was more stable. Yun Mengtian thought to himself: He is worthy of Emperor Wei Wu, he knows people well, is brave and strategic, and is really strong.

About half a month later, Cao Jun recruited more soldiers and more than 1,000 soldiers along the way and finally arrived in Dongjun. As soon as Cao's army entered Dongwuyang, the county seat of Dongjun, he ordered the civil officials to immediately hand over the county's map books, strictly check the county's population, and send generals to inspect the political situation in their respective counties, and soon Dongjun settled down under Cao Cao's governance. In the third year of the first peace, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army suddenly gathered, known as a million people to break through the state and county, and entered the Yanzhou territory to break through a number of counties in the east, although Yanzhou Assassin Liu Dai is good at governing the state and county, but there is no strategy, do not accept the advice of Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, "avoid its front, frustrate its sharp", and say it without shame: the Yellow Turban Army is a rabble, unarmed, where is the opponent of the regular army of our county, I want to personally recruit the Yellow Turban Army, kill them without leaving a piece of armor! Bao Xin said: The lord can not listen to the words of the minister, but if our army is defeated, it will be the people of Yanzhou who will suffer, Liu Dai ignored him, or prepared to go on the expedition, Liu Dai led the Yanzhou army 20,000 near Rencheng County to encounter the Yellow Turban Army, and was besieged by hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, more than ten days later, Liu Dai's army ran out of food, the morale of the soldiers was lost, the generals of the Yellow Turban Army took the opportunity to attack Liu Dai Yanzhou Army, the Yanzhou Army was defeated, Liu Dai was killed on the spot, the news spread to Chenliu County, Yanzhou was shaken, at this time Yuan Shao heard that Liu Dai died, and was overjoyed: My Yuan Benchu turned around, It's time for Cao Apu to take over Yanzhou, and then see if Yuan Shu, a mongrel, dares to go against me! Yuan Shao immediately recommended Cao Cao to the imperial court as the pastor of Yanzhou to govern Dongwuyang, Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard the news, Cao Cao said: I Cao Mengde finally has a base! At this time, Bao Xin was overjoyed when he heard that Cao Cao was recommended as the pastor of Yanzhou, so he said to Yanzhou Wenwu: Cao Mengde is a person with great ambition and resourcefulness, and Yanzhou is saved. Yanzhou civil and military all thought so, so Yanzhou civil and military took the initiative to invite Cao Cao to Chen Liuli Yanzhou, and Cao Cao finally had his own foundation at this time: Yanzhou. Yun Mengtian was also promoted to general and prepared to lead the army to march with the main force to the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army. After half a month of rectification, the Cao army successfully formed a regular army of 30,000 people, while the Yellow Turban Army was paralyzed by the killing of Liu Dai, and it stayed near Rencheng County to plunder, and did not approach Chenliu County. Finally, a fierce battle is about to begin!
