- Gradually, Chen Deng turned his head, not daring to meet Liu Bei's eyes. The guilt in his heart became more and more intense, but Chen Deng had to force himself to harden his heart (Holy King.c) uploaded by Wu Jiu Literature Book Friend because , he wants to pave a bright road for the future of the Chen family in Xuzhou. Cao Cao is bound to win Xuzhou, and Liu Bei has no strength to guard it. If the Chen family blindly follows Liu Bei, Xuzhou will be conquered by Cao's army. The Chen family was in danger of being wiped out. On the contrary, if he had helped Cao Cao win Xuzhou, Cao Cao would have used him again with his talent-loving temperament. Cao Cao had now become the foundation for conquering the world, and Chen Deng's father, Chen Gui, 'Has always been famous for knowing people, Chen Gui saw that Cao Cao was a peerless hero, and the world would most likely fall into Cao Cao's hands. If the Chen family chose to follow Cao Cao, they would surely continue to prosper for hundreds of years.
Therefore, for the sake of the relationship between Liu Bei and Cao Cao, Chen Deng finally chose to abandon his conscience and choose Cao Cao
"Today we say goodbye, you and I are incompatible with each other. Yuan Long, please take care of yourself. I don't blame you for today's results. It's because I, Liu Xuande, am incompetent and hope that Yuan Long can be kind to the people of Xuzhou. I thank Yuan Long in advance."
Liu Bei suddenly dismounted from his horse, bowed in salute, and bowed to Chen Deng on the city. Liu Bei's words were like a sharp sword, severly cutting into Chen Deng's heart. Chen Deng's body trembled suddenly, and he lowered his head unconsciously. Face to face
"Patriarch, Liu Xuande is so benevolent and righteous. We treat him like this, and he repays kindness with kindness. Do we really want to betray him?"
A certain Chen family general couldn¡¯t bear to whisper in Chen Deng¡¯s ear. Chen Deng¡¯s handsome face twitched again. After exhaling a big breath, he turned around and left.
From beginning to end, Chen Deng didn¡¯t say a word. Maybe it was over and he really had nothing to say. Liu Bei watched Chen Deng leave silently. Then he remounted his horse, turned his horse¡¯s head and returned to the formation.
The Chen family has taken refuge with Cao Cao, and the East China Sea has been lost. Cao Cao's army may attack at any time. At this time, Liu Bei is like a lost dog, and it is inevitable that he feels a little sad.
"Brother, the army has been fighting continuously and has been traveling for days. Our soldiers and horses are all exhausted. Now we are in urgent need of a place to stay for the army to rest."
After Liu Bei returned to the formation, Pan Feng said to Liu Bei solemnly. Liu Bei frowned deeply. After thinking for a while, he responded with a bit of loneliness.
"Go to Longquan County. Although it is remote and desolate, it is surrounded by mountains and the terrain is rugged, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack."
"Longquan County? It is indeed a dangerous place to resist the enemy."
After Pan Feng heard Liu Bei's words, he was stunned for a moment. It turned out that Longquan County was deserted and most of the people living there were foreign natives. As the leader of a state, Liu Bei was forced to settle there. It was really shocking. Feeling quite desolate, Liu Bei sighed deeply, and then issued an order for all troops to start rushing to Longquan County [full text ww]
As for Chen Deng, he did not send troops to kill Chen Deng. It can be said that he was hiding his selfish motives and secretly letting Liu Bei survive. At this time, Cao Cao's army was marching towards Guanglinghuo. If Chen Deng could entangle Liu Bei, Cao Cao's army would be able to do so in less than three days. When they arrive, Liu Bei will be like a turtle in a urn and will undoubtedly die.
Chen Deng has always been a cold-blooded person. As long as it is for the benefit of the Chen family, conscience and loyalty can be abandoned. Chen Deng's abnormal decision shocked his father Chen Gui. However, he later learned from a certain Chen family general that Liu Bei said in the city After those words, Chen Gui understood the reason for Chen Deng¡¯s abnormality.
"Liu Xuande is thick and tolerant, and he convinces others with his kindness. As the saying goes, a benevolent person is invincible. No wonder Deng'er can hardly keep his heart. If this person does not die this time, there will be a time when the dragon will rise."
Chen Gui secretly cursed. After walking a few steps in front of Chen Deng's room, he suddenly sighed slightly and turned around to leave. Originally, Chen Gui wanted to persuade Chen Deng to send troops to pursue Liu Bei, but later, for some reason, Chen Gui changed his mind.
After Liu Bei led 7,000 soldiers to flee to Longquan County, he seized the time to build high fortresses, dig deep ditches, and persuade the local people of Longquan. Three days after Liu Bei fled Guangling City, Cao Cao led an army of 80,000 elite soldiers with great momentum. Rushing to the foot of Guangling City, Chen Gui and Chen Deng led the Guangling civil and military forces to meet Cao Cao at the foot of the city.
At the north gate of Guangling, Chen Deng's handsome face was filled with surprise. He saw Cao Cao's army in the distance almost covering the sky and the earth. The troops were neat and orderly, with such a huge number, but there was no chaos at all. Chen Deng was secretly surprised by Cao Cao's rule. Soldiers have their own way. With such elite soldiers and horses, I wonder which army in the world can compete with them?
As for Chen Deng, there is an old man with gray hair and neat appearance who is slightly similar to Chen Deng. He has a pair of deep and wise eyes that shine with strange light. This man is Chen Deng's father. Chen Gui was also Chen Gui at the beginning. Trying his best to persuade Chen Deng to join Cao Cao
"It seems that Cao Mengde not only has great talents and strategies, but also has strict military management. Such a person is worthy of our Chen family's wholehearted following. It seems that this time, I have hit the right target."
Chen Gui secretly slandered, and at the same timeIn his heart, he was glad that he had chosen Cao Cao. When Chen Gui saw Cao Cao's mighty military appearance of 80,000 soldiers, he was convinced on the spot that even if he did not join Cao Cao, he would try his best to help Liu Bei with the Chen family. It is absolutely impossible to defeat Cao Cao with his strength.
As 80,000 Cao Cao's troops came closer and closer, the earth-shattering sound of soldiers and horses stamping on the ground and the clashing of weapons hit the brains of every civil and military officer, general, and soldier in Guangling. Every time 80,000 Cao Cao's troops took a step forward, the uniform sound of The huge violent sound was like a heavy hammer hitting their hearts.
Half an hour later, Cao Cao suddenly waved his big hand, and the 80,000 soldiers immediately stopped. Each column was extremely orderly, and no soldier took one step more or one step less. Cao Cao's face was cold, and he shouted in a condensed voice.
"Who is Chen Yuanlong"
When Chen Deng heard Cao Cao's cry, his expression suddenly changed. He secretly thought that with Cao Cao's traditional marching style, he would always send scouts to find out the information about the place he was marching into. Perhaps at this time, Cao Cao knew that Liu Bei had left Guangling safely and was with Cao Cao. With his great wisdom, how could he not guess that this was done intentionally by Chen Deng?
Chen Deng felt a lot of bitterness in his heart. Under the command of a tycoon like Cao Cao, it was like answering the old saying: Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Chen Deng had just surrendered to Cao Cao, but he did such a treasonous and unethical thing. Chen Deng was unmoved on the surface, but in his heart But he was uneasy. He concentrated his mind and hurriedly took a step forward, holding his hands and praying.
"Chen Yuanlong meets with the Prime Minister"
Cao Cao squinted his eyes, and there was a sharp light in his eyes. When he looked at Chen Deng, Chen Deng felt that Cao Cao's eyes were like a sharp sword, piercing into his heart, looking at all the thoughts in his heart. Unconsciously, Chen Deng Deng was already covered in cold sweat. Cao Cao suddenly changed his cold face and started laughing.
"Hahahahaha, was it you who withstood the attack of Cao Ren's army in Guangling two years ago?"
Chen Deng's expression changed again, and he felt a pinch in his heart. Although Cao Cao was smiling, who knew whether he wanted to settle accounts after the fall? But for a peerless hero like Cao Cao, how could his thoughts be the same as those of ordinary people? Maybe Cao Cao didn't think so at all. It doesn¡¯t mean this, but it has a deeper meaning
Chen Deng¡¯s mind was spinning with thoughts, and then his face straightened, he bowed his hands and bowed again
"It's Mr. Chen"
Chen Deng's admission made Cao Cao's expression suddenly change and became extremely dark. Chen Gui, who was behind Chen Deng, was shocked and secretly cursed: How could Chen Deng be so confused about the situation and admit it to his face and even if he had to admit it? , at least find some excuses for loyalty for yourself.
Cao Cao looked at Chen Deng coldly for a long time. Chen Deng lowered his head and did not dare to say anything. After a period of dead silence, Cao Cao laughed loudly again and praised Chen Deng repeatedly.
"Okay, Chen Yuanlong, you dare to admit this in front of Mr. Cao. Your courage is not something that Mr. Cao admires. You must remember that some things are not just words of courage. If you do it again and again, you are stupid. Cao Someone will never show mercy to stupid people.¡±
Cao Cao's voice was cold and clear. Not only did Chen Deng's heart beat with fear, but Chen Gui behind him was also breaking into a cold sweat, fearing that Cao Cao would suddenly kill Chen Deng.
"Chen Yuanlong thanked Prime Minister Cao for teaching Chen Yuanlong to remember it and never do it again. If he violates this, he will be punished by heaven."
"Hey, it's such a trivial matter, why do you need to swear such a poisonous oath? Mr. Cao is just giving you some reminders. Chen Yuanlong obeyed Liu Xuande's orders to persecute Tao Qian and seize power in Xuzhou. Later, he concealed the truth from the court and defrauded the position of state shepherd. Fortunately, Tianwang Huihuishu Not to mention, Liu Xuande's evil deeds have been exposed. As the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, I should uphold the righteousness and handle the affairs. From today on, Liu Bei and all his generals will be removed from their official positions. The position of Xuzhou Mu will be temporarily replaced by Chen Yuanlong. Afterwards, Mr. Cao will report this matter to the Holy One one by one and tell the world."
Cao Cao suddenly promised Chen Deng the throne. Chen Deng was taken aback by Cao Cao. When he came to his senses and saw the bright smile on Cao Cao's mouth, he hurriedly knelt down as if waking up from a dream. Bow down again
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your gift."
Xuzhou, Guangling City
Fifty thousand Cao's troops almost packed all the tents in the school grounds. The remaining 30,000 Cao's troops followed Cao Cao's order and set up camp ten miles outside the city. In fact, there is a lot of open space in Guangling City to place these troops. Of course, Cao Cao's arrangement has deep meaning. After all, Chen Dengtou, regardless of whether his loyalty is trustworthy or not, but some precautions must be taken.
In the school grounds of Guangling City, Cao Chunzheng led a group of soldiers and horses to patrol the surrounding area. A Cao family general asked in a low voice in Cao Chun's ear with some doubts.
"General, according to the spies' report, Chen Yuanlong let Liu Bei go without permission. According to the military law, even if he was not severely punished, he would be punished with at least thirty military sticks. But the lord not only did not punish him, but also granted him the high position of Xuzhou Mu. The idea is really puzzling to the villain.¡±
Cao Chun frowned and suddenly stopped walking, staring coldly at General Cao who asked the question, his eyes sharp and compelling. General Cao felt as if he was beingA poisonous snake stared at him, and a cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to the Tianling cover.
"The lord is a peerless hero who is unique in his generation. How can he think that ordinary people like you can understand that Chen Yuanlong is extremely resourceful and has won the praise of the lord and Guo Jijiu? And don't forget that he was Even the eldest brother of this general was forced to do nothing to help. The lord has always loved talents, such as Chen Yuanlong, so it is reasonable for the lord to use him more.
What's more, the Chen family behind Chen Yuanlong is a powerful family in Xuzhou. The lord is so powerful in Xuzhou that he wants to stabilize Xuzhou as soon as possible. He must have the Chen family to help him. It is also for the sake of the overall situation that the lord indulges him a little. However, this is only one time. With my lord¡¯s temper, if he dares to offend again, even if he is the reincarnation of Zhang Liang, my lord will chop off his head without hesitation.¡±
Cao Chun knew Cao Cao's temper very well. Cao Cao had a tolerant spirit, but that didn't mean that Cao Cao allowed his advisers and generals to indulge in their talents. If it violated Cao Cao's bottom line, then no matter how much Cao Cao had to do with his talents, knowledge, and bravery, love, will also strictly enforce the law, without leaving any trace of mercy.
When the general of the Cao family listened to Cao Chun's words, he unconsciously thought of the major event that shocked Luoyang a year ago. At the time, this incident could be said to have shocked the entire Cao family. The reason why this incident caused a storm in Luoyang a year ago was that All because of this incident, both the Cao family and the Han family were involved.
