The music of all countries intoxicated the peace, and the moon was clear in the hall of the Heaven Pavilion.
The clouds beat the dance of An Lushan in chaos, and the wind was heavy and laughed under the mountains.
In April of the year 189 of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Spirit Emperor's death was approaching. Under Shen Ying's hellish training, the Black Eagle Cavalry had begun to take shape in just two months. Early in the morning, Shen Ying personally led the troops to run on the training ground. This was one of the training that they had to persist in every day. It was called 20-kilometer cross-country. At first, the soldiers were not very patient with this training because they thought that they were cavalrymen and did not need to run like that. However, under Shen Ying's iron bowl and Shen Ying's daily leadership, the soldiers started to run every day when the drums sounded. Shen Ying took the lead. This kind of physical training was really a child's play for him. Now, even the soldiers were at ease. Shen Ying looked at Zhao Yun who was running beside him and said,"How is Zilong? You must have worked hard during this period of time!”Zhao Yun replied with a smile,"I can only use the word 'admire' to describe the training method that Haotian proposed to you."”Zhang He, who was wearing heavy armor, said to Shen Ying,"Haotian, your ability is really amazing. There are 2,000 new recruits among these 10,000 soldiers, but which one of these new recruits isn't full of vigor? Some of them are even more skilled than veterans.”Haha! Everyone couldn't help but laugh. After a few months of interaction, Shen Ying was ruthless towards his enemies, friendly towards his soldiers, and strict towards his military discipline. He won the respect of the soldiers, and every soldier gave Shen Ying their sincere support. They also changed the devil in their hearts into a war demon.
After the morning training, it was archery training, followed by the tactical training of the five people combined attack taught by Shen Ying. In the afternoon, it was horse battle, the real combat training on horseback. After a day, the soldiers would more or less have some injuries. Some of the more serious ones would be treated by Shen Ying personally. However, at night, the soldiers were both moved and afraid by Shen Ying's understanding and writing of the five characters. They were touched because the soldiers had always wanted to learn to read since they were young, but they had never had the chance. However, Shen Ying had given them the chance. They were afraid that they would have to write and memorize every day. If they did not finish it, they would not be able to sleep that night. What was worse was that they would still have to continue training during the day. Knowing five words a day was something Shen Ying didn't know. One of the slogans he proposed was to arm the soul with knowledge, arm the body with martial arts, and arm the soul with the beliefs of the Black Eagle Riders. The creed of faith was that everything was for the sake of the people who were suffering and not to fight in the war. Shen Ying's dogma could only be explained as a low-level doctrine now, but to the people of China thousands of years ago, it was already advanced enough. After a day of training, it was nothing to Shen Ying and the other generals. Shen Ying had just returned to his residence when he saw a guard waiting for him. Shen Ying knew that something bad was about to happen, so he listened to the guard's detailed report. It turned out that Han Xian, Li Le, and Hu Cai, the commanders of Hedong Baibo in Hongnong County, had rebelled. Some people in the court were afraid of endangering the capital and had specially reported to the emperor. In order to protect his own imperial guards, Zhang Rang had refused to say that he could not win. He Jin saw that Zhang Rang had the intention to refuse, so he also said that he had no soldiers to send. Wang Yun saw that no one from the two forces dared to stand up, so he recommended Shen Ying to the Emperor. The Emperor saw that someone was willing to help, so he immediately allowed it. Wang Yun also took the opportunity to speak to the Emperor and allocated some military funds and other items to Shen Ying.
"Who is the one who sent the decree? When will he arrive?" Shen Ying asked the Iron Guard.”"The imperial edict will be delivered by the Yellow Gate's Assistant Minister, Lord Xun, in two days."”"That's great!" Shen Ying said happily,"Then, I secretly gave some tasks to the Iron Guards. I told them to pay attention to their safety in Luoyang and to complete their tasks well."”After hearing this, the Iron Guard expressed his understanding and left. Shen Ying pondered for a moment and immediately ordered the messenger to call Tian Feng, Zhao Yun, and the others to the meeting hall for a discussion. When Shen Ying arrived at the meeting hall, everyone was there as well. Shen Ying then told him about the thief. After listening, Tian Feng said,"This matter is meaningless to the Great Generals of the Imperial Court, but it's different for us. As long as we win this time, we'll be able to obtain even greater benefits.”All the generals agreed, but Shen Ying shook his head and said,"Yuan Hao's words make sense, but now that we've gone to wipe out the bandits, we can only say that it's like drawing water with a sieve. "Could it be that there's something wrong with common sense?" Zhao Yun asked in confusion.”Everyone looked at Shen Ying in confusion. Shen Ying continued,"According to reliable sources, the Emperor won't be able to last past this four months. That means that the new Emperor of the Imperial Court will ascend to the throne, and the situation will be different. Moreover, every time a new emperor takes the throne, the court will be in chaos. We don't even know if anyone will remember us by then.”
Shen Ying's words undoubtedly cast a shadow over everyone. Yan Baihu asked. Shen Ying said firmly,"We must fight a determined battle and a long battle." As long as we stay in Hongnong for three months, which is mid-July, our turning point will come.”"Why do we have to fight for three months, but not longer or shorter? What is the turning point?" Tian Feng asked suspiciously.”"I'll answer Yuan Hao's question in two days." Shen Ying smiled.”What he needed to consider now was how to fight and how many soldiers to bring. He said to Tian Feng, who was proficient in military affairs," With our current military strength, we should have fought quickly. However, due to time constraints, we can only take a slow approach. In other words, we can fight steadily. There was also the deployment of the enemy's forces and how many people there were. It was worth further reconnaissance.”"Yuan Hao's words are very clear, and they are also the key to our battle," Shen Ying said. The generals also expressed their agreement. The final result of the discussion was to send a hundred soldiers to Hongnong County immediately to find out the enemy's location and strength. As for the number of soldiers, it was seven thousand, led by Shen Ying, Zhao Yun, Zhang He, and Ling Cao. The rest guarded the camp.
Two days later, at noon, the imperial court's messenger and a group of people transporting supplies arrived at the camp gates. Shen Ying, who had already received the report, immediately ordered the entire army to welcome them. When Xun You's carriage entered the camp gates, Shen Ying walked up to him and said,"Riding and Shooting Lieutenant Shen Ying greets Lord Xun.”"Greetings, Lord Xun," the soldiers of the entire battalion shouted,"Your voice reverberates through the clouds.”Shen Ying looked at Shen Ying and the soldiers from the carriage, and he couldn't help but be stunned. Although Xun You was not a confidant of that faction in the imperial court, he was still a frequent visitor to the General's manor. Ever since Shen Ying had visited him, he had paid close attention to Shen Ying's actions. Thus, he knew that the Henan Commandant Camp was an abandoned camp. But what was it now? It was a group of orderly cavalry, a group of mighty cavalry, a group of shocking people, making people believe that this was an army that could fight well. Shen Ying looked at Xun You's surprised expression and said with satisfaction,""Lord Xun, do you remember what I said that day? I, Shen Ying, will always keep my word. As long as Lord Xun is willing to trust me, I will definitely create more glory.”Xun You listened to Shen Ying's words and looked at his domineering image. He thought that the world was indeed going to be in chaos. It was time for him to find a way out. "I will always remember Lieutenant Shen's words. We will talk about this later. Please accept the edict now!"”When we received the decree, all the soldiers in the camp jumped off their horses and knelt down. Xun You looked at this neat movement and was already impressed. He then read the imperial edict again. It was similar to what Shen Ying knew, which was that the Iron Guard had reported those things.
After Xun You finished reading the decree, Shen Ying immediately arranged for his followers to go out for a drink. He brought Xun You, Tian Feng, and the others to the meeting hall. After they sat down, Shen Ying went straight to the point and said,"Lord Xun, I believe that the Imperial Court has already begun to fall into chaos! Do you have any thoughts of escaping now?”On the way, Xun You was still hesitating whether he should really join Shen Ying. However, after seeing Shen Ying's soldiers, he had an idea in his heart. Now that Shen Ying asked him, he knelt down and said,"My lord, please accept Xun You's bow. After saying that, he bowed down." Shen Ying quickly supported Xun You and said,"Gongda, you don't have to do this in the future. You and I can just call each other brothers."”Your Majesty's words are different. Haven't you heard that there is a difference between monarch and minister, and there is a difference between the upper and lower levels? You should be like a monarch. Otherwise, how can you convince the people and exert the power of the country? My lord, from now on, you can't talk to me as brothers, let alone bow to me as a monarch. Shen Ying did not expect Xun You to be so pedantic even though he was a great literary scholar. This was completely beyond Shen Ying's expectations. In other words, it would be extremely difficult to convince him. Xun You then asked Shen Ying about sending troops. Shen Ying told him everyone's thoughts one by one. Xun You said happily after listening,"Since the matter has already been discussed, I will immediately return to the court to report the edict. Then, I will go home and recommend a few talents to my lord.”"Could it be your uncles Xun Wenruo and Xun Youruo?" Shen Ying asked happily.”Xun You asked in surprise,"How does my lord know my uncle's name?"”Haha! The Xun Clan's Eight Dragons had been famous for a long time, Shen Ying said. "My lord is right," said Xun You,"but I do not recommend my uncle. I recommend the famous Zhong Yao and a young man named Guo Jia.”"Gongda, it's great news that you two can help us, but shouldn't your uncle also recommend us?" Shen Ying said happily.”As soon as Shen Ying finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter. Ruan Yu even said,"My lord is really thirsty for talents!" Due to Xun You's words about the difference between monarch and subject, Ruan Yu felt that Shen Ying's words were reasonable. However, he had been educated for decades and had buried it deep in his heart. Therefore, he still called him Lord. Shen Ying chatted with Xun You, Tian Feng, and Ruan Yu for half a day. They all felt that the other party was very knowledgeable and had unique insights. Everyone felt that such a heart-to-heart talk was very happy and harmonious. When Xun You led everyone back to the court, Shen Ying led his soldiers to a distance of ten miles. Xun You couldn't help but feel moved. He thought to himself," To be able to obtain such a wise ruler, I have nothing to fear in my life." The next day, Shen Ying announced that he was going to start his army in Hongnong. Then, all 7,000 troops set off. When they were not far from a small county, Shen Ying led 100 soldiers ahead. The rest of the matters were handled by Zhao Yun and Zhang He. A young man in his thirties dressed like a county magistrate, but he did not go to the court all day. He only studied in his own courtyard and watched the development of the world. This person was one of the three major rebels in the late Eastern Han Dynasty...
