Zhang Xiu, the Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

was yelled at by Gongsun Zhan, Yan Gang didn't dare to be long-winded, and immediately went down to give the order in person.

Then the 100,000 Liaoxi army made a 180-degree turn and began to return the same way. In this regard, many soldiers were surprised and complained, and it is no wonder that they have come all the way to come here, and they have to return the same way without doing anything.

Gongsun Zan led 100,000 Liaoxi troops back to Beiping by the same route, while Zhang Liao led 50,000 troops to conquer the north and walked slowly behind, and it took four days to reach Renqiu County, more than 200 miles north of Hejian County.

After arriving in Renqiu County, Zhang Liao ordered the Northern Army to temporarily halt. Zhang Liao's purpose was to wait for Gongsun Zan to return to Beiping, and then continue north to return to Zhuo County.

Zhang Liao's actions inevitably fell in the eyes of Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Chan was not stupid, he could understand why Zhang Liao did this. Gongsun Chan couldn't help but be depressed.

At this moment, there was a rift in the relationship between Chen Chu and Gongsun Zhan. This is a very helpless thing, there is only a union of interests between the princes, and there can be no real friendship.

After another three days, the scout reported to Zhang Liao that Gongsun Zhan had returned to Youbeiping. Subsequently, Zhang Liao led 50,000 troops to conquer the north and left Renqiu County to continue northward, and returned to Zhuo County two days later.

After Chen Chu left Huguan, he arrived in Shangdang two days later. Next, Chen Chu recuperated from his injuries in the party.

Chen Chu now only has to recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, because there is nothing for him to worry about for the time being, there is Jia Xu in Guanzhong, Zhang Jaw in Hangu Pass and Chang'an, Guan Yu, Huguan Tian Feng, etc., Zhao Yunqin leads 150,000 people and Qiangqu Shan Yu's 100,000 Hun troops in Northern Xinjiang, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who pose the greatest threat to the Northern Army, have turned against each other, and the crisis of the Northern Army has passed.

Although Chen Chu is recuperating from his injuries, his life is extremely comfortable. Why? Because Zhang Rui and Diao Chan take care of them meticulously.

It was a crisp autumn day, and Chen Chu was lying on the couch in the back garden basking in the sun very comfortably. Chen Chu squinted his eyes, letting the sunlight shine on his face, feeling every pore slowly stretched by the warm sunlight, breathing in the refreshing air, and feeling the freshness gently cleansing every cell in his chest.

"Big brother, I want to eat!" A beautiful voice like a lark suddenly came, Chen Chu opened his eyes, only to see the delicate and moving Zhang Rui coming over with a wooden plate carrying delicate fruits and vegetables, next to Zhang Rui is the inseparable Diao Chan, Diao Chan is showing a coquettish smile at the moment, Diao Chan's hands are not empty, she is holding a big bowl of fish soup, and behind the two women, there are four maidservants, each holding a piece of food in their hands.

Chen Chu sat up with a smile. Chen Chu's injury has improved a lot under Hua Tuo's careful conditioning, and although he can't do strenuous exercise, he can already sit and stand as usual.

After a few moments, the six foods were arranged, and the maidservants withdrew.

Zhang Rui immediately excitedly introduced his masterpiece. Zhang Rui held up the plate of fruits and vegetables she held in front of Chen Chu's eyes, smiled brightly, and then said, "This is the fresh fruit I am picking today, big brother, try it!" The fruit Zhang Rui was holding was actually pears, and at this moment, these pears had been peeled and cut by Zhang Rui.

Chen Chu smiled slightly, then picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, and a sweet smell suddenly overflowed his mouth. Chen Chu couldn't help but exclaim: "It's delicious!" Zhang

Rui suddenly smiled even happier when she heard this.

Then Diao Chan on the side held a bowl of fish soup in front of Chen Chu, showed a charming smile, and said, "Big brother, this is my stewed

fish soup!" What else could Chen Chu say, the beauty was gracious, and immediately took the fish soup and drank it in a big gulp. Then he let out a long breath and showed a very cool look.

"It's so delicious!Cicada's cooking skills are getting more and more exquisite!" Chen Chu exclaimed sincerely, while looking at Diao Chan with tenderness in his eyes.

Diao Chan only felt a sweetness in his heart, as if he had eaten honey.

Then the two daughters continued to serve Chen Chu carefully, and under the mottled shade of the trees was an enviable scene of affection. For a meal, Chen Chu ate very comfortably.

After eating, Diao Chan and Zhang Rui supported Chen Chu left and right on the path by the lotus pond and walked slowly. In fact, Chen Chu can now walk freely, and the reason why Diao Chan and Zhang Rui still have to hold Chen Chu's arm is entirely because they are used to taking care of Chen Chu these days.

For Zhang Rui and Diao Chan's gentleness and thoughtfulness, Chen Chu certainly would not object, and he still enjoyed it.

Just as Chen Chu was walking with Zhang Rui Diao Chan whispering, an iron guard came to report, "General Zhang Fei is here."

Chen Chu laughed and said, "When will this guy Yide learn to report first!" and then instructed Tie Wei: "Bring Yide here!"

Tie Wei agreed, and then walked down quickly.

As soon as Tie Wei left, Zhang Rui pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "I know that my eldest brother is injured, why do you still bother?" In Zhang Rui's heart, nothing is more important than Chen Chu.

Chen Chu patted Zhang Rui's slender hand and smiled.

A moment later, Zhang Fei's face full of flesh and steel needles and whiskers appeared in front of Chen Chu.

"Big brother, how is your injury?" asked Zhang Fei eagerly as soon as he arrived.

Seeing Zhang Fei's sincere feelings from the heart, Chen Chu couldn't help but feel a warmth rise in his chest. Chen Chu punched Zhang Fei with a smile and said, "Do you think I look like I'm in trouble?"

Zhang Fei's eyes lit up, and he looked a little excited.

At this moment, Zhang Fei saw Zhang Rui, who was looking at him dissatisfied, so he hurriedly saluted Zhang Rui and Diao Chan: "Zhang Fei has seen two sisters-in-law!" Zhang Rui

couldn't help but feel his heart jump, his cheeks suddenly turned red, and then he took Diao Chan's hand and ran away.

Seeing Zhang Rui's shy appearance, Chen Chu couldn't help laughing.

Suppressing his laughter, Chen Chu was about to speak when he saw that Zhang Fei was followed by a person. Although this person is not as majestic as Zhang Fei, he can be regarded as burly, wearing iron chain armor, and his status seems to be not low, but this person Chen Chu does not know.

"What is the name of this general?" asked Chen Chuwen Yan.

The man hurriedly knelt down on one knee towards Chen Chu, hugged his fists and said, "In Xia Gaoran, I originally served under Yuan Shao's account, and I have come to defect to the general!"

Chen Chu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, of course he would not be unfamiliar with the name Gao Lan, Gao Ran was one of the important generals under Yuan Shao.

Gao Ran knelt on the ground, and at this moment he felt something in his heart. The sincere brotherhood between Chen Chu and Zhang Fei touched him.

Chen Chu immediately stepped forward to help Gao Ran up, smiled and said gently: "General Gao Ran can come over to join me, I am very happy!"

Hearing Chen Chu say this, Gao Ran's anxious heart finally calmed down, what he was most worried about before was that Chen Chu refused to take him in, if that was the case, Gao Ran would have nowhere to go.

Chen Chu thought for a moment and continued: "General Gao Ran is talented, I know, but General Gao Ran has not made an inch of merit when he first arrived, so I temporarily appointed General Gao Ran as the Taishou of Fufeng, what does General Gao think?"

This official position is not high, but this is beyond Gao Ran's expectations, Gao Ran originally thought that Chen Chu would only let him be an irrelevant general at most.

Gao Ran hurriedly knelt down again, hugged his fists at Chen Chu and said, "Thank you, General! Gao Ran will definitely live up to the high expectations of the General!" Gao Ran couldn't change his words for a while, so he still called Chen Chu a general.

Chen Chu smiled and helped Gao Ran up, and said, "In the future, the defense of Fufeng will be handed over to General Gao

!" "Yes!" Gao Ran promised.

Immediately, Gao Ran remembered something, so he asked: "General, there are more than 1,000 personal soldiers and two generals who came with the last general, I don't know if they can go to Fufeng with the last general

!" Chen Chu smiled without hesitation: "Of course! In addition to this time, I will add 5,000 sergeants to General

Gao!" Gao Ran couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this, so he thanked him: "Thank you, General!"

Chen Chu smiled and patted Gao Ran's shoulder, and then said: " Don't call me General, just like everyone else, call me Lord!"

"Yes......! Lord!" Gao Ran replied with excitement on his face.

Then Chen Chu and Gao Ran gossiped about homely, and the two chatted while walking, and before they knew it, more than half an hour had passed. At this time, Zhang Rui and Diao Chan, who were thinking about Chen Chu in their hearts, came back, the two women frowned slightly and persuaded Chen Chu to rest, and Gao Ran retired with interest when he saw this scene.

After Gao Ran left the Taishou Mansion, Zhang Fei was responsible for arranging Gao Ran to live in the pavilion.

That night, Deng Huang and Wang Kai came to Gao Lan's room. Wang Kai had a worried look on his face, while Deng Huang sighed sadly.

"General, did the general say how to settle us?" Wang Kai asked impatiently. It's no wonder that he is so anxious, this is related to everyone's future future!

At this moment, Gao Ran had swept away the sad look he had been looking at for many days, and he replied with a smile: "The lord has appointed me as the Taishou of Fufeng!"

When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but be surprised. Wang Kai said with some disbelief: "The position of the Taishou is not low! The general was awarded this position when he first arrived, which shows that the general values the general very much!"

Gao Ran smiled and nodded. At this time, Deng Huang on the side suddenly asked, "What about us, did the general say how to settle us?"

Wang Kai couldn't help but be shocked, and then looked at Gao Lan.

Gao Ran glanced at the two of them, and then said, "The lord has agreed to my request, and the more than 1,000 personal soldiers I brought are still following me. So you don't have to worry

!" Wang Kai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard

this, and Deng Huang said with a sad face: "It seems that I can't go back!" Gao Ran saw this, so he persuaded: "General Deng, don't think about this anymore! We will definitely be able to make contributions

with the lord!" Deng Huang said with a wry smile: "It's useless if I just want to go back! I'm afraid that I will be beheaded as a traitor as soon as I go back!"

Gao Ran stood up, clasped his fists at Deng Huang and bowed: " It's all my fault, please forgive General Deng!" Gao Ran's tone seemed very sincere.

Deng Huang hurriedly helped Gao Lan up and said, "General Gao doesn't have to be like this! General Gao also has no choice but to do it! In fact, General Gao didn't kill me for himself at that time, and I am already very grateful to General Gao!"

Then the two sat down separately, and then the three of them chatted about the topic of the Northern Army.

Chen Chu was recuperating from his injuries in the party, and after about a month, Chen Chu's injuries were basically healed. So Chen Chu set off to return to Bingzhou, and returned with Zhang Fei, in addition to Diao Chan Zhang Rui, there was also Zhang Fei.
