Chapter 1244 Anxiety

After nearly a month of recuperation, Zhao Yun's health was already well. He looked through the official documents in his hand and showed a look of thinking.

At this time, Zhao Yun's three beautiful wives, Ma Yunlu, Fan Juan, and bare faces, brought in. They were holding a few plates in their hands and a few exquisite food on them, which seemed to be their masterpieces.

"Brother Yun, why are you disobedient again?" Ma Yunlu complained, put down the food plate in her hand, and snatched the official documents from Zhao Yun without saying a word. "Brother Yun, your injury has not healed yet, so you need to rest more!"

Without makeup, Fan Juan nodded seriously. Zhao Yun felt helpless and very happy.

"Brother Yun, this is specially made by our sisters for you! Try it quickly!" Ma Yunlu put a plate of food similar to fried pork slices in front of Zhao Yun, smiling like a flower.

Zhao Yun took a bite, nodded vigorously, and praised: "It's delicious! Yunlu, your craftsmanship has improved again!"

Ma Yunlu showed a proud look. At this time, Fan Juan and Wuyan also put the food plate in their hands on Zhao Yun's desk, and then looked at Zhao Yun with hope.

Of course, Zhao Yun would not favor one or the other. He tasted it one by one and praised it endlessly. The three beautiful wives smiled sweetly.

At this time, Wen Pin came in from outside with a document. Seeing the scene in front of him, he was stunned at first, and then he was tactfully prepared to withdraw. "Zhongye, is there anything wrong?" Zhao Yun's voice came over. Wen Pin immediately returned to the hall, clasped his fists and said, "General, Luoyang's official document!" He submitted a document with both hands.

Zhao Yun took the official document, and Ma Yunlu, Fan Juan and his bare faces stared at Zhao Yun with their cheeks.

Zhao Yun said softly to the three beautiful wives: "I just read the official documents, which will not affect the injury!" Fan Juan looked at Ma Yunlu without makeup, obviously following her leader. Ma Yunlu bulged her cheeks and suddenly smiled, "Brother Yun, we have agreed that you can only read the official documents!"

Zhao Yun nodded with a smile, with a gentle look in his eyes.

Ma Yunlu said to Fan Juan with no face, "Let's not disturb Brother Yun from doing serious business!" Yu Luo, and then he brought Fan Juan and Wuyan, who were still worried, out of the back hall.

"General, it's really enviable that you have these three ladies!" Wen Pin couldn't help but sigh.

Zhao Yun smiled and said, "This is also something I thank God! Okay, let's not talk about this!" Zhao Yun looked at the official documents in his hand and frowned slightly. "Your Majesty went to Jiaozhou in person, which is really a bit of a risk!"

Wen Pin nodded deeply, "Who said no? I don't know why Lord Zhou and the others didn't stop His Majesty?"

Zhao Yun said, "You don't know much about Your Majesty! Although Your Majesty is humble, he is from a rank of a corpse and has a tough and stubborn personality. Once Your Majesty decides something, I'm afraid no one can persuade him! This matter involves Concubine Yan, and it is understandable that Your Majesty cares about it and is confused!"

"What the general said is reasonable, but I don't understand why the cabinet wants to inform us of this matter! We can't seem to be able to help us, right? What's even more confusing is that the cabinet did not explain it in the document?" Wen Pin looked puzzled.

Zhao Yun thought, "You are right! This is indeed a bit strange! But since Your Majesty is not in Luoyang, we must strengthen our vigilance no matter what! Zhongye, immediately send me the order that all the defense areas in the Western Regions will be in combat readiness and closely monitor Ross' every move! From today on, all the information about Ross must be sent to me to see!" "Yes!" Wen Pin clasped his fists and agreed and prepared to go out immediately. "Wait, don't spread the news about Your Majesty's departure from Luoyang, just know I know!" "I understand!" Wen Pin clasped his fists and said solemnly. "By the way, General, your injuries~?" Wen Pin couldn't help asking.

Zhao Yun touched his chest, felt a faint pain, and smiled, "It doesn't matter, it will be almost healed in ten days and half a month!"

"General, just take a good rest as your wife wants! Leave the military affairs to us!" Wen Pin said with a smile.

Zhao Yun laughed and nodded.

Wen Pin left the back hall and sent an order. Then dozens of cavalry commanded the horses to speed away from the Pamir Fortress and headed in all directions.

The fast horses rushed past the city of Paoling on the side of the Paoling Fortress. Now the Paoling City has regained its pre-war bustle and even more prosperous. Caravans traveling from east to west are crowded in the city, with shops on both sides full of guests, but there is no noise in the restaurants. They are listening to the stories mentioned by the people on the stage intent. This story is not someone else, but it is Zhao Yun, the chief general of the Qin army guarding the Western Regions. The story is called "Zilong Sweeps Thousand Miles". As the name suggests, it refers to the deeds of Zhao Yun leading the Iron Cavalry of Canglang Camp deep into the territory of Ross to sweep the cave and fight for Wanli. This story has now spread all over the world. Even the restaurants and tea shops in Jiangnan tell this exciting story. Zhao Yun is now the number one general in the world in the minds of the people.

...

Chen Chu led 15,000 Iron Wall Guards and finally entered the Jiaozhou territory after more than half a month of trekking. The generals who followed Chen Chu were led by Dian Wei, with dozens of them. Zhuge Liang accompanied him as a military advisor. In addition, due to Zhu Rong's injuries, Hua Tuo, who had not taken action in person for a long time, and Zhang Zhongjing accompanied him together this time.

At the same time, the 100,000 local garrison troops in Yizhou and Jingzhou have entered Jiaozhou in advance.

In the evening that day, Chen Chu's army camped on a Pingba, which was dozens of miles away from Jiaozhou, near a stream.

Just as Chen Chu was discussing matters with Zhuge Liang in the tent, the messenger sent an order to report, "Your Majesty, General Zhu Yan has arrived with 20,000 soldiers!" Zhu Yan was the female guard captain next to Zhu Rong, and he can be regarded as Zhu Rong's closest confidant.

Chen Chu's eyes lit up, "Let Jiang Tai arrange the camping of Zhu Yan's troops and invite General Zhu Yan!" "Yes!"

A moment later, Zhu Yan, wearing leather armor, came to the tent. "I will pay my respects to Zhu Yan!" Zhu Yan said to him.

"No need to be polite! I'll ask you, how did Zhu Rong get hurt? What about Xu Zheng and the others?"

Zhu Yan replied: "The clan leader and the tribes discussed political affairs in the clan village that day. Everything was as usual. However, on the way to leave the clan village and return to Jiaozhou, we were suddenly besieged by the Ugo tribe. General Xu Zheng and we protected the clan leader out of the siege. However, in the process, the clan leader was hit by the poisonous arrows of the thief!"

Chen Chu frowned, his eyes full of murderous aura.

"How is Zhu Rong's injury now?" Chen Chu asked anxiously.

Zhu Yan said with a worried look on his face: "The clan leader is still unconscious now. The poisonous injuries she suffered are secretly made by the mountain clan, and even they themselves do not have the antidote!"

Chen Chu couldn't help but be anxious, "No, you can't delay here! When you come, you immediately order the cavalry team to prepare, and we rushed to Jiaozhou overnight!"

"Your Majesty, it's really unsafe to travel overnight!" Zhuge Liang persuaded urgently.

Chen Chu said decisively: "I can't wait for dawn! Kong Ming doesn't have to worry! The five thousand cavalry are all elite iron wall guards, and no one in the world can break their defense line!" Seeing that Zhuge Liang was about to persuade him again, Chen Chu said impatiently: "Okay, I have decided! Kong Ming, Zhu Yan, you guys stay here!" "Your Majesty, I'm here to protect His Majesty, I can't stay. I will bring two thousand mountain cavalry to protect his left and right!" Zhu Yan said. Chen Chu didn't say much and nodded.

A moment later, seven thousand cavalrymen supported Chen Chu and Hua Tuo, and Zhang Zhongjing rushed towards Jiaozhou dozens of miles away. Although the scenery on both sides flew behind him, Chen Chu still felt that the speed was too slow.

The horse team ran for about a quarter of an hour, and the scene in front of them was two dense forests sandwiched with a path of more than ten meters.

Dian Wei immediately stopped the horse team.

"Why stop?" Chen Chu came to Dian Wei and asked.

"Your Majesty!" Dian Wei bowed, then pointed to the terrain not far ahead and said: "This terrain is very conducive to ambushing, and it is still at night now!"
