Answer:

After

Step-by-step explanation:

The most correct word to use before the sentece would be "After", After Washington surprising triumph, this is because consequently, Thus, and Similarly, would need to have added a "to" Consequently to Washington´s, so the best option would be After Washington´s surprising triumph.
