At the end of the first year of Hanzhongping, that is, in 184 AD.

It seems that this space is really beginning to collapse as the mysterious old man said, earthquakes, sea water and other disasters are continuous, all kinds of visions, indicating that the world has gradually fallen apart.

At this moment, the relatives and eunuchs in Luoyang are fighting fiercely, taking this kind of ominousness as a reason, and constantly impeaching and killing other party members.

And this undercurrent is surging in the world, and this year's large-scale famine and epidemic in various places have squeezed out the last luck of the Han Dynasty.

The three brothers of Julu and Zhangjiao have been spreading runic water in many states for many years, treating diseases and providing disaster relief, and the number of followers has reached more than 300,000, and the Yellow Turban Sect has developed into the largest sect in the world.

Zhang Jiao discussed with the two brothers, "The most rare one, the people's heart, now the people's heart has been smooth, should take advantage of the situation to take the world." ”

Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang agreed with their brother's suggestion, and then put forward the slogan "The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should be Li." The year is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious. ”

With the uprising of the three Zhang Jiao brothers, other small sects and forces in various places responded one after another, and for a time the thieves in various places were huge, and the officials and troops were in a hurry.

After the army began, every time a town was conquered, it was often aimed at the government and the powerful, and the masses in various places also enlisted as believers, and many officials were frightened and fled when they heard that the rebels were coming.

And Sun Ming's Youzhou is one of the hardest hit areas of the Yellow Turbans, except for Zhuo County, which is slightly better, the rest of the counties are full of Yellow Turban Army.

In January 185, more than two months had passed since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and local governments gradually reacted and recruited volunteers.

Zhuoxian also suffered a small-scale attack by the Yellow Turban, which was repelled by the officers and soldiers of Zhuoxian County led by Sun Ming, and set up camp dozens of kilometers away from Zhuoxian County.

Today's Sun Ming has been officially appointed by Zhou Tao as a county lieutenant, commanding more than 1,500 officers and soldiers in the county, responsible for the safety of the county, and his father Sun Wuji has also been appointed as the county magistrate, responsible for assisting Sun Ming.

The military camp of Zhuo County is located in the south of the city, with the city at its back.

At this time, Sun Ming was discussing the strategy of governing the army with Guan Yu, Han Zhong and others in the barracks, and the existing officers and soldiers had not fought for many years, and their morale and strength were not good.

"Now the thieves are huge, although they have been repelled by us, but they are not the Yellow Turban Army, but the third-rate miscellaneous soldiers attached to it, and the previous battle has also exposed many problems of our army, and it is not something that can be solved in a day and a half."

"I want to form a strong army from the newly recruited volunteers, so that we can resist the rebels in the future, what do you think?" Sun Ming plans to form an army of his own in the next volunteer recruitment.

At this time, a white-bearded middle-aged man in the camp twitched the corners of his mouth and said sarcastically, "County Lieutenant Sun, the subordinate thinks that the existing officers and soldiers are enough to resist the thieves. ”

"Why waste money and time. What is the big deal when you are afraid of the head and tail? According to the lower officials, now that the morale is high, they should take advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, instead of waiting here in vain. ”

This person is the former county lieutenant Qian Ning. Sun Ming not only robbed him of his position, but now he is also saying in front of him that the army's combat effectiveness is not good, that is, he is slapping him in the face, of course he didn't give Sun Ming a good face.

Li Meng, a fool, was angry when he heard it, "My boss only won the battle a few days ago, so you should listen to my boss." ”

"And it's just that you can't wait for the ability to make the army into a miasma, and my boss should be grateful to Dade for not holding you accountable, and I'm still here with rumors, believe it or not, I slashed you with a knife."

Where did Li Meng see that others said that Sun Ming was not, and he was about to draw his knife, so he was scolded by Sun Ming before he lowered his head and stood aside.

Qian Ning had seen Li Meng's strange power, and was immediately so frightened by Li Meng that he jumped up, ready to run out at any time.

But Sun Ming also had anger in his heart, "This Qian Ning has always been uncooperative with his work, he thought he was young, but now that he has won the battle, he is still so domineering." ”

Sun Ming is polite to his talents, and he is not so good at talking to this kind of pig teammate.

Sun Ming turned to look at Qian Ning and said, "County Lieutenant Qian, please bear with me, Li Mengnai is a rough person and doesn't talk back." ”

"Let me answer you, now I am the positive, and you are the vice."

"If the official's opinion is inappropriate, Deputy County Lieutenant Qian can report it to the Zhou County Order, of course I will obey it, but I am the biggest officer here, do you also give me respect!"

The more Sun Ming said this, the more serious his tone became, and in the end, he looked at Qian Ning indifferently, and Li Meng, who had just shrunk to the side, was also angry when he saw Sun Ming at this moment, and he was about to move, wanting to draw his knife.

At this time, the rest of the camp hurriedly played a round to calm down the parliamentary riot, and Qian Ning sat aside with a gloomy face, without saying a word.

Sun Ming kept an eye on it, and when the meeting ended, he watched Qian Ning again with the panel.

【Channing】

[Brawn: 42 (Normal)]

[Intelligence: 58 (Normal)]

[Command: 56 (Normal)]

[Politics: 48 (Normal)]

[Opinion: 11 (disgust)]

Sure enough, Channing's favorability changed from 38 to 11 before.

"It seems that this Qian Ning will have bad things sooner or later, I have to prepare early." Sun Ming was secretly wary in his heart.

And Qian Ning left the barracks on his own and returned to his mansion, under normal circumstances, generals like Sun Ming and Qian Ning have to stay in the barracks on weekdays, not to mention that it is a time of war.

But Qian Ning's insistence on leaving was also considered to be a dismount for Sun Ming, and he returned to the study with a gloomy face.

finally couldn't suppress his anger, overturned the desk, and scolded angrily, "Good you Sun Junyi, not only robbed me of my official position, but also embarrassed me today, and in the year of the weak crown, all of them have questioned me." ”

He kept scolding Sun Ming in the study, making a mess in the study at home and venting the anger in his heart.

On Sun Ming's side, after the meeting ended, several cronies still gathered in the tent to continue to discuss the training of new soldiers.

"Gonggong, how about you preside over the affairs of the recruits?" Meritorious service is Han Zhong's word, because Han Zhong has had experience in commanding troops and training troops before, and Sun Ming is also at ease with him.

"The owner, the matter is big, and I am afraid that there will be a mistake in the owner's affairs, so it is best to let Yun Chang and I be responsible together."

Sun Ming closed his eyes in embarrassment, "No, Yun Chang wants to stay in the camp and continue to train the battalion soldiers, his side is also very important, if only there was one more person who can be trusted, if it doesn't work, I can only let Huo Duo transfer over for temporary use." ”

Suddenly, there was a newspaper outside the tent, saying that a man named Zhang Fei asked to see him, Sun Ming was overjoyed, hurriedly ran out of the camp, took Zhang Fei's hand and walked into the tent.

Then he left and said happily, "Brother Yide, Junyi has been waiting for you for a long time, I am worried that I have no great talent, you have arrived, haha." ”

Although Sun Ming now has many subordinates, he has no choice but to need Huo Puppet and Zhang Yang to watch his big rear.

What he lacks most now is his cronies, preferably a general who can lead troops to fight, only Guan Yu and Han Zhong are with him, and Li Meng doesn't dare to let him lead troops to train at all.

Zhang Fei's arrival was undoubtedly a relief in the snow, Sun Ming pulled him into the tent, and said happily to Han Zhong, "The talent you want is here, and I will let Brother Yide be in charge of the recruit drill with you." ”

When Han Zhong saw Zhang Fei, he immediately saluted and said, "Brother Zhang, I've been waiting for you for a long time, haha." "Han Zhong was captured by Zhang Fei at the beginning, and now they are already acquainted.

"I received the news that Jun Yi was in charge of the army a few days ago, so I sold the excess assets in my family, and from now on, my Zhang Yide's life will be handed over to the virtuous brother, and I will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire."

Sun Ming clapped Zhang Fei's arm with both hands, "Ming Zheng needs the help of a great talent like Brother Yide, my brother understands the righteousness, please accept the worship of the younger brother." ”

Sun Ming was about to kneel down after saying that, Zhang Fei quickly grabbed Sun Ming and said gratefully, "Brother Xian, why is this, Brother Xian is helping the poor today, reporting to the country, going to An Lishu, a certain family is just doing their best." ”

At this time, Han Zhong also came over, and said with a smile, "Dongjia, don't you know, last time I drank with Brother Yide, he was worried that he had nothing to do, and now we hit it off, haha"

When everyone heard this, they laughed. Tonight's camp was full of celebratory atmosphere, Sun Ming and others gathered together to raise a glass and drink.
