In The Three Kingdoms With A System - Chapter.40 Dunhuang’s recovery and Subjugation

With the rebellion for Dunhuang, the plain itself was set ablaze in the flames of war which ruined the crops and buildings while bandits struck out harassing Lu Bu’s army.

Somewhere in the fields, a dragon-like figure was rushing back and forth through the grass.This figure was Tianlong along with his unit of cavalry.After Lu Bu ascended the lordship of Dunhuang he ordered Tianlong along with Zhang Liao to clear out all bandits within Dunhuang within three months. Two months had passed and with it 14 of the major bandit groups where kilt or captured leaving the 3 leading bandit groups left.

Tianlong: Fu Chen!! Which bandit group remains within the northern plain!?

Fu Chen: general!! The last group should be the Blood sword bandits which numbers up to 3thousand!!!

Tianlong: why do they have so much? Did Ma Ai not pay attention to the bandits?

Fu Chen: when the rebellion happened the first, second and third-ranked bandit groups struck out by recruiting common folk for the price of protection!!

Tianlong: Someone!! Send word to lord Lu and request if we can have 2thousand infantry!!Fu Chen lead the rest to the blood sword hideout and prepare camp I shall receive the infantry should the request be accepted!

Within Dunhuang, in the city hall, a tall curvy figure with brown hair and black eyes stood before Lu Bu and Diao Chan.

Diao Chan: Linger the battlefield isn’t a place for us woman but men like your father and brother!!

Lu Lingqi: why can’t I!? I was taught by father as well but I’m not able to enroll in the army!?

Diao Chan: sweetie~ a man and a woman are different by many things and war just isn’t for us,

Lu Lingqi: daddy let me join the army!!

Lu Bu who was listening to the argument not intending to get involved shook his head and walked to Lu Lingqi.

Lu Bu: Qi’er the battlefield isn’t as sweet as what you imagine. It is a place where men stake their lives which result in blood, take your brother, for example, he rose to a first-class general from two life and death fights were he almost died but he showed no fear because it was his own choice. That’s what makes us men different, we aren’t afraid to die on the battlefield we resolve our heart with our brothers and give it our all.

Lu Lingqi who heard what her father said took a long time to process the last words he said. The resolve of not fearing death and prepared for death these two concepts looped In Lu Lingqi’s mind before she rose her head with determined eyes and said I still want to join!!

Lu Bu looked his daughter in the eye and saw her determination of a fiery blaze.

Lu Bu: haaaa~ fine you can enroll but you must stay by your brother!!

Lu Lingqi quickly hugged her father and screamed out Thank you, daddy!!! you’re the best!!!

Diao Chan who saw the scene laughed and called Lu Lingqi over.

Diao Chan: Qi’er make sure you come back okay?

When Lu Lingqi heard her mothers voice it was filled with sadness which made Lu Lingqi raise her head to see her mother have slightly red eyes.

Lu Lingqi tightly hugged her mother for a long time before going with her father.

Tianlong had already ridden back to Dunhuang awaiting the infantry he requested.

Lu Bu soon arrived in front of Tianlong and asked why he needed 2thousand infantry.

Tianlong: My lord!! This one would like to clear the Bloody sword bandit group and that is why I asked for reinforcements!!

Lu Bu: you cleared the entire north?

Tianlong:Yes!! My unit has cleared every group besides the bloody sword bandits!!!

Lu Bu: good!! General Lu Tianlong I order you along with captain Lu Lingqi to clear the bloody sword bandits you march at dawn!!!

Tianlong: WHAT!?

Lu Bu turned to see his shocked son and asked is there a problem?

Tianlong: WHY IS SISTER IN THE ARMY!?

But before Lu Bu could answer back a figure walked beside Tianlong and hit him on top of his head.

Lu Lingqi: is there a problem Tianlong!?

Tianlong: AAAHH!!! Of, course there’s a problem!!! Girls aren’t even able to step foot on a battlefield!!

Lu Lingqi: well so sad father said I could!!

Tianlong: FATHER!! Why did you say yes!?

Lu Bu had already walked back to the city hall intending not to get involved.

Soon dawn came and with it, 2thousand soldiers stood behind Tianlong and Lingqi.

Tianlong: ALRIGHT WE SET OUT!!! WE SHALL NOT COME BACK TILL WE SLAY THE BLOODY SWORD BANDITS!!!!! MARCH!!!!!!!
