Chapter 133: The Day Before Departure
"What? Great Chu has allied with the Right Wise King of the Xiongnu to occupy Yushan Fortress and is preparing to attack Great Wei!"
Chu Feng, who had just returned to Anwu Prefecture, immediately received the news sent by Guo Xueping.
"That bastard Right Wise King is moving pretty fast. I haven't even made a move yet, and he's already in cahoots with Great Chu!"
"Marquis, this matter is of great importance. The Chu Army has already moved into Yushan Fortress and joined forces with the Xiongnu army, posing a grave threat to Great Wei. If not stopped in time, Great Wei will be in danger of annihilation."
"The Duke of Chen has already led troops to provide support; I beg the Marquis to dispatch troops for rescue as soon as possible!"
"What? My grandfather actually went to Yushan Fortress?"
"Yes!"
Guo Xueping nodded. "At present, Great Wei cannot spare many more troops. The Duke of Chen defied all opinions and personally led the army to resist the incoming enemy."
"General, let us also quickly dispatch troops to reinforce them!"
Lu Shuwan was worried about her grandfather's safety and hoped that Chu Feng could send troops to support him as soon as possible.
"General Lu, have you forgotten that we just experienced the Battle of Wang Ting? Our troop losses were immense, and we need time to rest and reorganize!"
"This..."
Lu Shuwan finally realized this.
They had only just returned to Anwu Prefecture, and of their two hundred thousand troops, fewer than seventy thousand remained, many of whom were wounded.
It was almost impossible to set off for support immediately.
"Xiang Yuan, how many troops have you trained during my absence?"
"Reporting to the General, this subordinate has trained a total of twenty thousand troops. Eight thousand of them were trained according to the standards of the Iron Pagoda, there are another three thousand in the Modao Team, and the remaining nine thousand are elite cavalry."
"Very good. All generals, listen to my orders!"
"Present!"
All the generals gathered in place.
"Xiang Yuan, Qiu Ming, Lu Shuwan, Wu Jiang, Hong Ji, Guangling..."
"This subordinate is here!"
The individuals whose names were called all stepped forward.
"Pass the order: draw ten thousand men from the soldiers who experienced the Battle of Wang Ting, add the newly trained troops and thirty thousand Anwu Prefecture garrison troops, and set out tomorrow to support Yushan Fortress."
"Understood!"
After the troop arrangements were completed, Chu Feng turned to look at Tang Kai. "General Tang, your losses were too great; stay in Anwu Prefecture to rest and recover. Furthermore, the defense of Anwu Prefecture and the training of the soldiers are fully entrusted to you."
"This subordinate obeys!"
Subsequently, Chu Feng looked at Zhu Kang: "Old Zhu, your burden is not light either. You must worry about all the political affairs of Anwu Prefecture. Additionally, I must trouble you to recruit refugees to cultivate land, while also overseeing the recruitment of soldiers to consolidate the city's defenses."
"Rest assured, Marquis, I will handle everything!"
Zhu Kang promised.
He was the logistics minister behind Chu Feng, responsible for all logistical matters, including troops, provisions, and fodder.
"Uncle Xu, after I leave, the defense of Anwu Prefecture is entrusted to you."
"Rest assured!"
Glug, glug, glug, glug...
Xu Hu clutched a wine gourd and kept pouring wine into his mouth.
"Xueping, we have made all the preparations here. Please go back and tell Her Majesty to rest assured; we will crush the Chu-Xiongnu coalition and take back Yushan Fortress."
"Then I leave it to you all."
Guo Xueping bowed to everyone.
She then immediately returned to the Capital to report.
After Guo Xueping left, Zhu Kang poked Chu Feng: "Old Chu, it seems Great Chu has no intention of paying the ransom. What is the plan for that brat, the Crown Prince?"
"Keep him for now. Later, when we invade Chu, he might still be of some use. Keep an eye on him."
"Alright, I understand!"
After the instructions were finished.
Everyone immediately went to reorganize their troops.
Preparing to set out tomorrow to support Yushan Fortress.
After everyone had left, Lu Shuwan still had not departed.
She looked at Chu Feng hesitantly, as if she had something to say.
"Shuwan, is there anything else?"
"Ah?"
"No... nothing..."
Lu Shuwan blushed and hurriedly left.
She blushed whenever she thought about the time she and Chu Feng had been intimate.
If not for Cui Hua ruining things back then, she would have already become Chu Feng's woman.
"Heh, this girl!"
Chu Feng smiled slightly.
He also recalled the situation from that time.
"Damn it, I almost had her back then. It's all that bastard's fault for ruining my good deed!"
Chu Feng curled his lips and said.
He then took out the secret manual of the other half of the "Purple Firmament Profound Heaven Art" that Meng Da had given him.
"After such a long time, I have finally gathered this incomplete secret manual of the Martial Emperor."
Taking advantage of the fact that it is still early.
Chu Feng immediately began to flip through the second half of this secret manual, and gradually, a glimmer of enlightenment arose in his heart.
"If I can cultivate this secret manual to perfection, I wonder if it can help me break through to Martial Emperor?"
He had not forgotten the humiliation Song Zhuo had brought upon him.
He was definitely going to the Canglan Realm.
However, before going, he must handle everything here first.
"Bing Yu, wait for me!"
Chu Feng murmured as he gazed into the distance.
At nightfall.
After some grooming and dressing, Lu Shuwan quietly arrived at Chu Feng's residence.
This morning, she had wanted to stay and converse with Chu Feng, but she could not take that step.
After returning, she tossed and turned, unable to calm her heart.
Tomorrow was the day the great army would set out; if she did not seize the chance, there would be no opportunity later.
Therefore, she had washed her body clean, preparing to come again.
Only when she reached the door did she feel a bit hesitant.
"This... this is so embarrassing!"
Lu Shuwan said with a blushing face.
Although her temperament was no different from a man's, she was, after all, still a maiden.
Facing such a matter, it was inevitable to feel a bit...
"Oh my, should I go in or not?" Lu Shuwan kept asking herself in her heart.
"Since you've come, just come in and sit for a while!"
"Ah?"
Lu Shuwan was greatly startled.
She had been so careful, yet she had still been discovered by Chu Feng.
Helpless, she had no choice but to push open Chu Feng's door.
"General!"
"Not asleep yet?"
Chu Feng ended his cultivation and asked.
"Mm, I can't really sleep!"
"Why, are you worried about your grandfather?"
"Mm!"
Lu Shuwan nodded.
"Rest assured, at our speed, we can reach Dai Prefecture City in three days at most, and there are still two hundred thousand Great Wei troops stationed there; Great Chu and the Xiongnu won't be able to break through that quickly!
Besides, your grandfather is a Martial Saint expert; the enemy forces cannot do anything to him."
"Then I am relieved!"
"It's getting late, go back and rest early; we have to set out tomorrow!"
"Okay!"
Lu Shuwan agreed with her mouth, but her body did not move.
She just stood there, staring straight at the one she loved.
"Why, is there something else?"
"General, do you like Shuwan?"
"Why do you say that?"
"General, don't you understand Shuwan's heart?"
At this moment, Lu Shuwan could no longer care about a maiden's shyness, and she suddenly threw herself into Chu Feng's embrace.
"Back when the assassin attacked, Shuwan had already given her heart to the General. Although I now know the General already has Sister Bing Yu, Shuwan doesn't mind if the General has others,
and Sister Bing Yu specifically instructed me before she left to take good care of the General."
The next moment.
Lu Shuwan took the initiative to offer her cherry lips.
After some entanglement, Chu Feng also responded with immense passion.
The two of them just like that uncontrollably rolled together.
A long while later.
The two parted their lips.
"General, tonight Shuwan is yours!"
With a rip, Lu Shuwan tore open the undergarment wrapping her, revealing the full spring scenery inside.
"Since that is the case, then I will not be polite."
Chu Feng kissed her again.
As the bed curtains on both sides fell.
The spring scenery inside became even more radiant.
Immediately following, the bed frame began to shake violently, and Lu Shuwan's gasps became increasingly intense.
Both of them were experiencing the affairs between a man and a woman for the first time; at the beginning, they were very inexperienced, but gradually they mastered the knack of it.
This scene was like Heavenly Thunder igniting a raging fire.
The blazing fire met the dry wood.
Both parties were immersed in this intoxicating pleasure, unable to extricate themselves.
It was unknown how long it lasted.
This storm of shared intimacy finally came to a rest.
