Five Generations of Professional Mercenaries

Traveling through five generations, I became a guest general who could be abandoned at any time under Jiedushi. According to historical records, the entire army was wiped out in this battle, and the general hung his head at the city gate. That night, I disappeared into the rain with three hundred remaining soldiers. Since loyalty cannot be exchanged for survival—— Then follow my rules. My name is Lu Zhao. I was an international mercenary in my previous life, and I am an outcast in troubled times in this life. They asked me to use 300 lives to exchange the main force for three days. I nodded and accepted the order, but turned around and burned the Khitan's grain road and occupied the abandoned camp in Chanzhou. When the governor asked me what reward I wanted, I asked for the most barren salt-alkali land and the most undesirable old and weak soldiers. They laughed at me for being stupid. Until—— I used modern military training methods to train defeated soldiers into an unheard-of "synthetic squad." Use standardized logistics to allow a fifty-man unit to achieve a battle loss ratio of three hundred. Use the staff system to deduce every charge of the Khitan cavalry on the sand table. Later: The refugees began to settle down in the fields under my rule, because here "there are rules for fighting wars and dividing food according to rules." The down-and-out Guo Wei came to my door and wanted to exchange my military training manual with Yi Jie Jinlan. Young Chai Rong stood in front of my sand table and refused to leave for three days and nights. Zhao Kuangyin looked at the "Injury and Casualty Pension Regulations" in our army and fell silent for the first time. And later: The emperors of the Central Plains changed one after another. They all have a common nightmare—— The man who always appeared when I was at my lowest and took everything away from them. The professional mercenary who turned war into a business, trained the army into a machine, and treated troubled times like a chessboard.
