Mi Han

Chapter 63 Loyalty and Righteousness, Zhao Zilong

After Zhao Yun's relief, Chen Dao couldn't help laughing.

He jumped off the horse, and then pulled Zhao Yun who was on the horse to the open space in the school field, and the two sat up directly on the ground.

Chen Dao took out the flagon from his waist, took a sip, and threw it to Zhao Yun.

After Zhao Yun took it, he naturally raised his head and drank it.

What is in the jug is not wine, but spring water.

Chen Dao has a strict personality. Since he was entrusted with important tasks by Liu Bei, he has given up drinking.

Now even if his friends meet again, he will not break the precept.

Liu Bei valued Chen Dao because of his strict character.

Chen Dao looked at Zhao Yun who was drinking water with his head up, recalling the scene in Xinye in the past, his face was full of nostalgia.

Chen Dao said to Zhao Yun, "Zilong, do you still remember the days in Xinye?"

Chen Dao's words were full of nostalgia.

And his nostalgia also brought Zhao Yun's thoughts back to that small town.

Although Liu Bei's influence was very small at that time, they often got together because they were in the same city.

Zhao Yun still remembers that there is a place outside Xinye City that is suitable for outings.

On public holidays, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, Liu Yan, Jian Yong, and Sun Qian went out with him to play together.

At that time, as a general, I competed with Guan Yu and others in martial arts, while Mi Zhu and Jian Yong, who were also scholars, sat on the ground and discussed scriptures.

As for Liu Yan and Mi Fang, they were in charge of roasting meat for everyone because they couldn't write well or fight well.

At that time, as the smoke from the barbecue rose, they felt tired and talked about the future together in front of the fire, looking forward to the future of revitalizing the Han Dynasty together.

At that time, Mi Yang, Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, and Zhao Tong, who were still young, were running and laughing happily around the smell of meat.

The children's laughter combined with their loud laughter was the most beautiful voice Zhao Yun had ever heard in his life.

Thinking about such a scene now, Zhao Yun will be filled with deep nostalgia.

It's a pity that as the power of the King of Hanzhong grows stronger, these people who embraced the same ideals in the past slowly drifted away and separated.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yun couldn't help sighing.

Seeing Zhao Yun sigh, Chen Dao asked Zhao Yun,

"Zilong, are you leaving?"

Hearing Chen Dao's question, Zhao Yun nodded.

"In the battle of Hanzhong, the Baimao soldiers suffered heavy losses, so the king ordered me to lead the rest of the troops to patrol Yizhou, looking for soldiers capable of fighting to replenish the Baimao soldiers.

I've spent a long time in the belly of the fish, and it's time to go. "

"Your Majesty will attack Yongliang in the north in less than two years. Before that, I must replenish and train the Bailong soldiers."

In fact, what Zhao Yun didn't say was that during the First World War in Hanzhong, the fame of Bai Mubing flourished.

Therefore, Liu Bei ordered him to lead the Bailong soldiers to patrol Yizhou, not only for the purpose of replenishing soldiers, but also for the purpose of using the prestige of the Bailong soldiers to deter unruly people everywhere.

After all, the battle in Hanzhong this year almost emptied the entire Yizhou.

This caused many local clans in Yizhou to be quite dissatisfied with Liu Bei's rule.

Seeing that Zhao Yun was really going to leave, Chen Dao didn't want to keep him. After all, brotherly love is a trivial matter, and Liu Bei's great cause is a major event.

And just when Chen Dao was about to ask Zhao Yun when to leave, at this time Chen Dao's personal guards suddenly came to Chen Dao to report to him,

"Chen Du, there is a messenger from Jingzhou visiting."

Hearing that a messenger from Jingzhou had come, Chen Dao and Zhao Yun were shocked.

Jingzhou is under the rule of Guan Yu, and Guan Yu is currently on the Northern Expedition. Could it be that something happened to Jingzhou?

Otherwise, why would Guan Yu send a messenger to the fish's belly?
Chen Dao hurriedly ordered his guards to bring that person in, and this person was the messenger sent by Mi Fang from Jiangling.

Seeing that Mi Fang's messenger was brought to the front and back of Chen Dao and Zhao Yun, he immediately knelt down and said to Chen Dao, crying,
"Chen Du, please quickly send troops to support Jiangling."

"Jiangdong Sun Quan broke his promise and sent a large army to surprise Jingzhou.

The main force of General Guan is in the north, and there are only weak defenders in Jiangling City, which is in danger! "

After hearing what Mi Fang's messenger said, Chen Dao and Zhao Yun's expressions changed drastically.

Mi Fang's messenger was crying and telling his reason for coming. At the same time, he took out the letter written by Mi Fang from his arms and presented it to Chen Dao.

Chen Dao immediately took the letter and read it. He recognized Mi Fang's handwriting, and there was Mi Fang's seal on the letter as proof.

After confirming that what the messenger said was true, Chen Dao was furious. He looked towards the east and angrily said,
"Little thief Sun Quan, you are really shameless!"

This is the always steady Chen Dao, a rare moment of losing his composure.

After confirming the military situation, Zhao Yun immediately asked Mi Fang's messenger,
"Can your master report this to the king quickly?"

Although Mi Fang's messenger didn't know Zhao Yun, but seeing Zhao Yun and Chen Dao standing together, he guessed that Zhao Yun's identity should be quite high.

So he replied,

"The messenger to Chengdu, Mr. Mi Fu, has already been dispatched.

Seeing that Chen Du's jurisdiction is not far from Jiangling, Lord Mi Fu sent a villain to report to Chen Du, hoping that Chen Du could send reinforcements to help. "

Seeing that a messenger had rushed to Chengdu, Zhao Yun felt relieved.

But at the same time he thought about the importance of Jiangling.

If Jiangling is lost, Jingzhou will not be safe, and Guan Yu will fall into a desperate situation in an instant, and his life will be in danger!

Thinking of this, Zhao Yun immediately said to Chen Daoyan, "Uncle Zhi, I will send troops into Jing immediately."

Unexpectedly, Chen Dao dissuaded Zhao Yundao, "Zilong can't."

"You are ordered by your majesty to lead the white scorpion soldiers to patrol Yizhou.

The king's order is before you, how can you lead the white scorpion soldiers into Jing without authorization. "

"As for supporting Yun Chang, I should go."

"I am ordered by the King to guard the belly of the fish, and I have the right to do things cheaply.

Even if the censor impeaches me for leaving my post afterwards, I am not afraid. "

Chen Dao's words were all about Zhao Yun's consideration.

But Zhao Yun said after hearing this, "No."

"Yubu is an important place connecting Yizhou and Jingzhou. If your troops leave the city, Yubu will easily be taken advantage of by Jiangdong thieves.

If the belly of the fish is obtained by Sun Quan, then not only will the king's reinforcements be unable to enter Jingzhou, but also the last retreat of all the civil and military forces in Jingzhou will be cut off! "

"And the Baimu soldiers are all field elites, which is not conducive to defending the city.

After entering Jing, I used the strength of the white scorpion soldiers to patrol up and down the river, so that the Jiangdong army would not be isolated from inside and outside Jingyi.

Therefore, I should go to Jing. "

Both Chen Dao and Zhao Yun seemed to be vying to enter Jing to support Guan Yu, but they would not say the words of going together.

After all, if Guan Yu wanted to be rescued, the belly of the fish could not be lost.

In contrast, as Zhao Yun said, it is more appropriate for him to go now.

It's just that Chen Dao was still worried that without Liu Bei's order, Zhao Yun would privately lead the Bai Mu soldiers into Jing, and he would be impeached by the imperial censor in the future.

Chen Dao was worried about this and Zhao Yun was also aware of it. Facing Chen Dao's worried face, Zhao Yun replied generously,
"I have followed the king for dozens of years. The minister knows the king, and the king knows the minister. The king will never doubt me."

"Although my soldiers are few, but now the country is in danger, my brothers are in trouble, and righteousness lies. Even though I have nine deaths, I still don't regret it, so why should I be afraid of mere impeachment?"

"Even if I have to bear the responsibility for this incident in the future, as long as Jingzhou and Yunchang are fine, I can feel at ease."

"Don't say anything again, uncle, just give me food and grass for a month."

Seeing Zhao Yun's firm attitude, and thinking that he really couldn't do without the heavy responsibility, Chen Dao sighed and had no choice but to agree to Zhao Yun's request.

"When is Zilong going to leave?"

"For the sake of the country, and for the sake of personal interests, you should act quickly."

Zhao Yun's tone was full of firmness.
