Fighting Dong Zhuo, the Thief of the State
The three brothers of Wu Jun, Situ Wang Yun, Marshal Yang Biao, Left Army Lieutenant Chunyu Qiong, Right Army Lieutenant Zhao Meng, Back Army Lieutenant Bao Xin, Central Army Lieutenant Yuan Shao, and hundreds of subordinates were escorting the Young Emperor and Prince Chen Liu back to Luoyang.
However, the carriage had only traveled for a few miles when Wu Jun, with his keen vision and hearing, suddenly noticed a troop of about a thousand soldiers galloping over with flags blocking out the sun and dust covering the sky. Wu Jun found that all the officials were shocked and trembling. Only his uncle Wang Yun and Lieutenant Yuan Shao's expressions were slightly calm. The Young Empress was also terrified. Wu Jun observed these soldiers. Each of them was very strong, and their eyes were bright. Each of them was wearing black armor and a black cloak. Every warhorse was extremely tall, and there was a bow and a quiver of arrows hanging from the saddle. After the horses stopped, they stood motionless, and even the horses did not neigh. They were indeed strong soldiers! Wu Jun, who held the position of Wei Wei, led his second brother, Zhao Yun, and third brother, Zhang Liao, who were the guards on the left and right. They rode out and shouted at the soldiers in front of them,"Who are you? Why are you blocking the emperor's carriage here? Who are your commanders? Quickly come out and answer? Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

They rode out and shouted at the soldiers in front of them,"Who are you? Why are you blocking the emperor's carriage here? Who are your commanders? Quickly come out and answer? Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
At this moment, among the cavalrymen in the shadow of the black embroidered flag, a burly man rode his horse out and asked the generals on Wu Jun's side sternly,"Where is Tian Zi?" This burly man was indeed extremely barbaric and arrogant. The young emperor trembled and did not dare to answer. Wu Jun once again shouted at the barbaric man in a dignified manner,"Who are you? If you dare not answer or take a step forward, don't blame me for not showing mercy.”Wu Jun took out the Sun-Breaking Bow from his back and nocked a Cloud Piercing Arrow to shoot at the burly man. Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao stood on either side, ready to fight to the death. The burly man saw that Wu Jun and his brothers were now majestic and had divine weapons in their hands. Wu Jun had already drawn his bow and was about to shoot. He quickly stopped his horse and replied,"I am Dong Zhuo, the governor of Xiliang. Who are the three generals?" When Wu Jun heard this, he realized that this wild man was indeed the most heinous traitor, Dong Zhuo. He shouted even more sternly,"This general is Wei Wei Wu Jun and his right-hand guards Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong, and Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan! Are you here to escort me, or are you here to rob me?”Dong Zhuo replied,"I'm here to escort you. May I know where Your Majesty is?" Wu Jun gestured for the Young Empress and Prince Chen Liu to come out and answer. However, the Young Emperor was still very frightened. Prince Chen Liu could only ride to Wu Jun's side and say to Dong Zhuo,""Since you're here to escort the emperor, why don't you quickly dismount and pay your respects? Or are you pretending to protect me, but in fact robbing me? Do you want to destroy your whole family and exterminate your whole family?”Dong Zhuo was greatly alarmed when he heard this, and he hurriedly motioned for his thousand men to dismount and pay their respects to the Young Emperor, Prince Chen Liu, and Wu Jun. Prince Chen Liu saw that Dong Zhuo had the advantage in numbers, and they were all cavalry, so he could only comfort Dong Zhuo with kind words.
The Wu brothers had been standing to the side the entire time, protecting the Young Emperor and Prince Chen Liu. Wu Jun had wanted to end the life of this traitor Dong Zhuo with one arrow, but Dong Zhuo had not done anything out of line, so he had no reason to kill him. In the " Laws of the Great Han Dynasty ", killing an official of the imperial court at will would result in beheading. Moreover, if he were to kill him with an arrow, the thousand or so generals behind him would definitely rush forward. With a thousand cavalrymen against hundreds of infantrymen, the outcome would be obvious. If he couldn't control the situation, Dong Zhuo's soldiers would definitely injure the Young Emperor, Prince Chen Liu, and even Situ Wangyun's uncle, as well as the officials. Moreover, the Young Emperor was already a 'bird startled by the twang of a bow'. Even if she wasn't injured, she would be scared half to death. At that time, not only would he not be able to make any contributions, but he would also become a sinner in history. This crime was something that he could not bear. It might even affect the lives of his parents, father-in-law, uncle, and other nine families. He could not be impulsive. He could only let this guy go first. It would not be too late to kill him in the future when there was a chance.
Afterwards, Wu Jun, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Liao followed Dong Zhuo and the other officials to escort the Young Emperor and Prince Chen Liu back to Luoyang. After the Young Empress and Prince Chen Liu returned to the palace, Wu Jun and his two brothers hurriedly returned to the inn they had stayed at the day before. Wu Jun did not know how Zhao Yu was doing. After such a long time without any news from the three brothers, she must be extremely anxious.
Not long after, the news of Wei Wei Wu Jun, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao rescuing the Emperor and fighting Dong Zhuo with their wits at Beimang Mountain had spread throughout the Han Dynasty. Some people even described Wu Jun as a god with three heads and six arms, while Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were heavenly soldiers and generals who had descended to the mortal world. The three of them rescuing the Emperor alone at Beimang Mountain and Wu Jun ordering Dong Zhuo to retreat alone had become a good story. After ten years of silence, Wu Jun and Wu Xianglong's name once again resounded in the Great Han Dynasty!
