The first year of Chuping

Cao Cao, who fled back to his hometown alone, sold iron, spent all his wealth to recruit volunteers, and called on the world's heroes to jointly attack Dong Zhuo. In addition, Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, pretended to be the Three Dukes and wrote letters to various states and counties. The powerful people in Guandong who were dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo responded one after another...

Lujiang

[Ding dong, the main mission [Eighteen princes jointly challenge Dong] is started. 】

[Task content: Go to Hulao Pass for an alliance meeting and participate in the discussion. 】

oh? What year is it today?

After receiving the system prompt, Chen Feng was in a daze. Before co-authoring, there was a period of free activities, and only now did he refresh the main mission.

"Brother? What's on your mind?" Zhou Yu asked when he saw Chen Feng suddenly in a daze.

Chen Feng heard this and replied: "Well, a man was born in troubled times, and he should carry a three-foot sword to achieve unparalleled achievements. Today, traitors are in power, and all the princes call on the heroes of the world to fight against Dong's traitor. I am ready to go north to make contributions."

When Sun Ce and Zhou Yu heard this, they felt that they had indeed paid homage to the wrong eldest brother, and asked again and again: "Brother, when should we set off?"

Chen Feng replied: "What about us? You are still young. Let me set an example for you this time."

"Brother, you can join the army at the age of fifteen!"

"The battlefield is no child's play, no nonsense."

"How can we follow our eldest brother to fight?" the two asked unwillingly.

"When you can work together to defeat me."

Chen Feng was determined not to let the two of them go, mainly because their four-dimensional attributes had not fully grown and their minds were not yet mature. If they were taken to fight now, he was afraid that if they act impulsively, the consequences would outweigh the gains.

Let's wait until they grow up for a few more years. Only then will they be truly qualified to be his right-hand man.

In the end, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu had no choice but to obey the arrangement. The eldest brother was right. Together, they couldn't even beat him now. If they went there, they would only cause trouble for him.

"Don't worry, there will be many opportunities in the future."

"Brother, be careful all the way."

Chen Feng bid farewell to Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, and left Shu County to return to Wan County.

Wan County

"Lieutenant Yang County, I am passing on my order that all those who join the army will be responsible for three meals a day. I order you to quickly recruit a team of 300 people. When recruiting troops, priority will be given to those with stronger physiques."

"promise!"

On that day, the recruitment office at the county government office was crowded with people who came to join the army, not only because they heard they were in charge of food, but also because they could follow Chen Feng to make contributions.

Looking at the large number of men who enthusiastically volunteered to join the army, Yang Wu felt that recruiting soldiers was so easy for the first time.

You know, when they recruited soldiers in the past, they always went to other people's homes one by one to arrest them... ahem, they went to other people's homes one by one to notify them. There were not many people who volunteered to join the army like this. It's the charm of our Lord Chen.

"Name?"

"Zhang San."

"Place of origin?"

"I'm a local."

"Look at the muscles."

"Well, it's suitable, let's go in."

"Next person……"

Recruitment is in progress...

"Report! Sir, a group of bandits came from nowhere outside the city. They didn't fight or make trouble. They said they were coming to seek refuge with you, sir."

Suddenly, an officer and soldier came to report.

"how many people?"

"There seem to be one hundred and eight people, and the leader is called Niu Da."

Knowing that the visitor was Niu Da, Chen Feng immediately left the city to meet him.

As soon as he left the city, an eight-foot-tall strong man waiting outside the city knelt down without saying a word when he saw Chen Feng:

"Niu Da, meet Mr. Chen."

The one hundred and eight bandits behind Niu Da also knelt down and worshiped Chen Feng.

Chen Feng put his hands behind his hands and asked: "If you and other bandits are not going to rob homes and houses, why are you here in Wan County, my officer? Do you want to have a taste of prison food?"

Niu Da cupped his hands and replied sincerely: "Sir, we have no choice but to fall into banditry. It is not what we want. We have always robbed the rich and given to the poor in order to make ends meet. We have never committed any murder or arson to harm the environment. This time Heaven and earth can be used as lessons.”

"Now that your Excellency has taken office in Anhui County, the people can live and work in peace and contentment. I have long wanted to come and submit to you. Today I heard that Your Majesty wants to recruit troops to start a rebellion, eliminate harm for the people, and go north to hunt down thieves, so I came here to surrender."

As he spoke, Niu Da moved a few steps closer to Chen Feng and knelt down again: "We had no choice before, but now we just want to be good people again. I hope you can ignore the past grudges and give us a chance to change our ways. ."

Not to mention, this great eloquent speaker is quite good. After hearing this, Chen Feng said: "Everyone, get up."

Niu Da and others did not move.

"How dare we, the guilty ones, get up without your permission?"

When Chen Feng saw this, he cursed: "Get up as soon as I tell you. Why are there so many things?"

Hearing this, Niu Da How didn't know what Chen Feng meant, so he stood up very wisely: "Quick, brothers, get up quickly."

"I am willing to hold the whip morning and night, lead the horse into the stirrup, and swear allegiance to your lord to the death."

"Okay, stop shooting. Time is tight. Let's ask the brothers to change into new equipment and set off early tomorrow morning."

"promise!"

One hundred and eight powerful bandits joined them, and the team of 300 people was quickly filled.

As for why only 300 people were recruited, it was because of the amount of equipment in the system warehouse.

The rewards for winning nine consecutive contests in the Zhou family's backyard, plus the yellow gelding given by the Taoyuan Three Brothers, totaled:

[Xuantie Armor × 300 pieces

Wild goose feather gun × 300 pieces

Log shield×300 pieces

Yellow gelding × 300 horses. 】

Taking them all out is only enough to arm 300 armored soldiers with spears and shields, and 300 cavalry on horseback.

Of course you can recruit more, but they are all new recruits without training. They will be chopped down like melons by others and sacrifice in vain. It is better to recruit three hundred people who want to go north to join the alliance first. Those who fish in troubled waters can get rewards. This can save money. Put down a lot of food and grass.

That night...

"Are you leaving?"

After Xiao Qiao learned the news, he hurriedly came with Da Qiao to say goodbye to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng smiled: "That's right, didn't you say that you would marry a great hero with great appearance, strong martial arts, and world-renowned reputation in the future? I have done the first two, and I am only missing the last one."

Xiao Qiao blushed slightly: "Yes... I have said it before, but it is very dangerous."

"Don't worry, I can fight very well."

Xiao Qiao rolled her big eyes and said innocently: "Who... who is worried about you? I... I'm just worried that if you die, you won't have any snacks to eat.

In short, just be careful. "

"Look, aren't you worried about me?"

"no."

('⌒´メ) Xiao Qiao firmly refused to admit it.

"Da Qiao, what do you think?" Chen Feng looked at Da Qiao.

"Ah? I don't know." Da Qiao looked confused.

………

morning three days later

A gentle breeze rises out of thin air, and the red sun gradually rises over the mountains.

North Gate of Wan County

Three hundred Wan County soldiers wearing black iron armor and holding wild goose feather spears lined up neatly in rows. They all raised their heads, held their chests out, and stuck out their buttocks, with high morale.

These three hundred recruits only practiced for three days, but the time was tight and the mission was long and the journey was long, so Chen Feng selected a dozen veterans from Yang Wu's men to go with them, planning to train as they went.

"Lao Zhu, Lieutenant Yang County, after I leave, Wan County will be left to you for the time being." Chen Feng told Zhu Xing and Yang Wu who were standing aside.

Zhu Xing and Yang Wu were the county magistrates and county lieutenants of Wan County, so naturally Chen Feng would not take them with them. The huge Wan County cannot be left without someone to take care of them.

Zhu Xing and Yang Wu accepted the order and said: "Don't worry, sir, we will continue to govern Wan County well and wait for the day when you return in triumph."

"Um."

Chen Feng then faced the 300 Wan County soldiers in front and said loudly: "Dong Zhuo, a traitor to the country, deceives the emperor and commits crimes. He commits all kinds of evil and is punished by everyone. Today, we will go north to join the alliance and join the heroes of the world. Heaven walks its course and eliminates harm for the people.”

"All officers and men obey the order, target Hulao Pass in Sizhou, and march!"

"promise!!!"

Three hundred soldiers got on their horses and followed Chen Feng staggeringly. The horses moved forward with sonorous and powerful horses. Behind them, almost all the people in Wan County came to see the soldiers off and hope that they would return victoriously...
