Liu Bei's current situation is a little embarrassing, with the generals Guan Yu and Zhang Fei under his command, and Chen Dao, who has just taken refuge in Liu Bei. Chen Dao's strength is not bad, only slightly inferior to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. In Yuan Chang's previous life, there were many experts who didn't know that most of Zhao Yun's experience was adapted by Chen Zhi, which was simply. Chen Zhi's strength is indeed good, but he is naturally a cut behind Zhao Yun, and he is not comparable to Zhao Yun today. Moreover, Chen Zhi is Liu Bei's personal soldier leader, responsible for leading Liu Bei's Bai Yu Army, and Zhao Yun is the general of the unified army, the two are not professional at all, and those experts can be involved together, which is simply amazing. Let's say that Liu Bei has these generals under his command, and his strength is already good, at least Tao Qian and Yuan Shu don't even have generals who can handle them. It's just that Liu Bei's generals still said it in the past, but Wenchen couldn't look at it directly.

So far, Liu Bei has three Sun Qian, Jian Yong and Mi Zhu, and Mi Zhu is still a secret post placed by Yuan Chang under Liu Bei. Strictly speaking, Liu Bei is under the command of Sun Qian and Jian Yong.

In the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, it was said: The talents of Sun Qian, Jian Yong, Mi Zhu, and others are applicable, what does it mean? That is to say, in the absence of other talents, these people can barely be used, and they dare not say that it is still possible to fight for the world and preserve the territory of one side. Such an ability is completely incomparable with Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Xun Yu and others. Therefore, Liu Bei is indeed very embarrassed in Wenchen today. If it weren't for Tao Qian's command, there would be no available people, and Liu Bei would not even think about it if he wanted to win Xuzhou.

And in the land of Xuzhou, I am afraid that Chen Deng's father and son are only those who have a little talent. However, to be honest, Chen Deng's father and son don't seem to have the idea of chasing the world, they just want to keep their own one-third of an acre. Looking at what Chen Deng's father and son have done, it seems that they are doing their best in this regard.

Moreover, every bigwig who wants to control Xuzhou seems to be unable to bypass Chen Deng's father and son.

Historically, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian died, but the Chen family vigorously supported Liu Bei, who came from outside, to become the suzerain of Xuzhou, and also brought Yuan Shao, a big coffee, to Liu Bei to stand on the platform. When Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou, and the Chen family ran forward and backward for Lu Bu, that Liu Bei seemed to be a dream that was forgotten when he woke up. Later they did the same to Lu Bu, but more like a nightmare - to try to get rid of it.

It can be said that Chen Deng's father and son have been staging ancient costumes infernal affairs, hovering between Tao Qian, Liu Bei, Lu Bu, Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others, but their attitude towards Yuan Shu has always been the same.

When Tao Qian died, everyone asked Liu Bei to manage Xuzhou, but Liu Bei refused. He is not only because of his own poor strength, but also because the big warlord Yuan Shu next door has always coveted Xuzhou. However, Chen Deng commented on Yuan Shu and said: "The highway is arrogant, not the master of chaos." On behalf of the local forces, he expressed his attitude to Liu Bei: he did not accept Yuan Shu.

Before Yuan Shu became emperor, he wanted to marry Lu Bu and planned to hire Lu Bu's daughter as his daughter-in-law. Lu Bu had already agreed, but Chen Qi, a veteran cadre in Xuzhou, resolutely opposed the arranged marriage, and successfully persuaded Lu Bu to repent of the marriage on the grounds of great rebellion, and broke up the "Buxue Wushu" combination. The great rebellion is just something that can be said on the table, in fact, Chen Deng's father and son's opposition to Yuan Shu actually has another hidden reason.

Speaking of which, Chen Deng's family and Yuan Shu are still world friends.

The Chen family in Xuzhou, although it is not as good as the Yuan family and the Yang family of the third prince of the fourth dynasty in the late Han Dynasty, has been an official for generations, and Chen Qiu's uncle Chen Qiu has become an official to the rank of lieutenant.

Therefore, Chen's family status in Xuzhou is second to none.

Chen Deng's father, Chen Qi, was friends with Yuan Shu when he was a teenager and had a time of flying eagles and lackeys together. Later, Yuan Shu grew up and felt that it was not good to be playful, and he had the idea of being the emperor, so he searched for celebrities everywhere, he was very important to Chen Jue, and wrote to ask Chen Jue to assist him, and said very sincerely: "With the old friends under the feet, how can you be willing to leave and right? "It means: I have never forgotten that we are iron buddies, I am about to develop, come on, let's do it together, brother will take you to pretend to be better than take you to fly.

Yuan Shu felt that Yu Gong was the left general of the imperial court, and Yu Zhi had a friendship with each other, and Chen Jue would definitely rush into his arms.

It's just that something happened that Yuan Shu didn't expect, and Chen Jue refused Yuan Shu's invitation without hesitation. Chen Jue and Yuan Shu have played since childhood, Chen Jue is quite clear about Yuan Shu's ability, and he is not optimistic about Yuan Shu's success at all, so how could Chen Jue invest his net worth and life in Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was very angry, and replied very simply: "I, it's me, Yuan Shu Yuan Highway, the descendant of the fourth and third dukes! You, Chen Qi's grandson, are just a retired department-level cadre who broke the county order, and you actually rejected me! You wait! I know where your home is, and I don't have your good fruit to eat!"

Then, Yuan Shu sent someone to arrest Chen Ying, Chen Jue's second son Chen Ying (Chen Deng's younger brother), as a hostage, and then informed Chen Jue: If you come, I will reunite your father and son. Yuan Shu drank honey syrup in his own mansion in Yangzhou, while proudly waiting for Chen Qi to lie on the ground like a turtle and beg for mercy.

Seeing that his son was kidnapped, Chen Jue replied as soon as possible, and he persuaded Yuan Shu bitterly: "Don't try to cause trouble again, for the sake of your old friendship with me, I kindly remind you that you have to get lost and know how to return, and it is ......the shore to turn back."

Chen Jue didn't mention Chen Ying at all, as if he didn't have this son.

Yuan Shu was dumbfounded when he received Chen Jue's reply, and he suddenly woke up: "Why did I forget?! Chen Jue, this old thing, has at least five sons! It seems that I have caught less, and he is not distressed at all!"

Therefore, Yuan Shu's initial battle plan failed.

In addition, the Chen family has more to do with Yuan Shu. Chen Yu's cousin, Chen Yu, was also the object of the imperial court's key training, was promoted to filial piety, and also served as the mayor of the capital, and later he took the initiative to leave the central government, and the three dukes and the imperial court appointed him to the position, but Chen Yu did not go to any of them. Later, Chen Yu was appointed by Yuan Shu as the assassin of Yangzhou, and the relationship between the two families had not broken down at that time, so Chen Yu was not good at refusing, so he went to Shouchun of Yangzhou to take office.

In the fourth year of the first peace, Yuan Shu attacked Chenliu County in Yanzhou, but was defeated by the combined forces of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao for more than 2,000 miles.

Chen Yu was simply beaten, and he beat Yuan Shu when he came up, he was appointed by Yuan Shu as the assassin of Yangzhou before, and he was quite forced, and this time he beat Yuan Shu to finally breathe a sigh of relief. Yuan Shu didn't have time to distinguish whether it was a pain in his body or a pain in his heart, so he quickly showed weakness and was close to Chen Yu, persuaded Chen Yu not to fight, and retreated east to Yinling with the army, and Chen Yu agreed

However, Chen Yu's approach this time was wrong. He let Yuan Shu go, but, what kind of person is Yuan Shu, a man who realizes his destiny, you Chen Yu actually dare to beat me? So, Yuan Shu took advantage of this respite to entangle a large number of men and horses in the Huaibei region to besiege Shouchun. Chen Yu, who was trapped, wanted to send someone to communicate with Yuan Shu. I put Yuan Shu before, and I hope Yuan Shu can also be handled in the same way.

Chen Yu felt that ordinary people were not weighty enough, so he sent his younger brother Chen Cong to negotiate on his behalf, and Chen Cong also served as a court official.

Yuan Shu was very happy to see Chen Cong, and wanted to see how much weight he had, so he tied up Chen Cong and put it on the scales to weigh him, and finally felt that the amount was not enough at all, so he detained Chen Cong, probably trying to feed Chen Cong enough. Seeing Yuan Shu continuing to attack Shouchun, Chen Yu was dumbfounded, and now he lost his younger brother and his army, so he had to flee back to his hometown Xiapi.

It seems that it is not the first time that Yuan Shu has come up with the trick of kidnapping the Chen family. And the grudge between the Chen family and Yuan Shu is not one or two. Therefore, Chen Deng's family and Yuan Shu are world friends: generations of disputes. It was also logical for Chen Qi to prevent Lu Bu from marrying Yuan Shu.

Where did Lu Bu know about the many grievances and hatreds between the Chen and Yuan families, and he highly appreciated Chen Qi's dissuasion. and sent Yuan Shu's matchmaker Han Yin to Xu Du as a negative example of an arranged marriage. And the Son of Heaven and Cao Cao also praised Lu Bu's clear attitude of opposing Yuan Shu's claim to be emperor: "Lu Bu, worthy of the surname Lu, must be Lu who is 'Lu Duan's big things are not confused'." ”

Because of this matter, the imperial court officially named Lu Bu as the general of Pingdong and the envoy of the festival and the pastor of Xuzhou. Lu Bu was very happy, especially being accepted by Cao Cao, which undoubtedly released the pressure that had accumulated in Lu Bu's heart for a long time, and Lu Jun was also jubilant. Except for Chen Gong, who drinks stuffy wine at home every day.

Lu Bu agreed to send Chen Deng to Xu Du to meet the Son of Heaven to visit Cao Cao, and run the department Qian Jin in the capital, and the relationship between activities.

Chen Deng was going to Xudu early in the morning, Lu Bu personally saw him off, all the way to the outside of the city of Xiapi City, and then went out and went out, Chen Deng said goodbye a few times, but he didn't do anything, so he had to keep chatting with Lu Bu. Lu Bu Yin asked Chen Deng to bring a good message to Cao Sikong: "You Chen Deng must be closer to Lord Sikong." I, I had the opportunity to meet with the old man before, but I didn't have a chance to say hello...... The past is unbearable, don't say it, don't say it, it's dark. Anyway, if you want to take this rare opportunity to get on the line with Cao Minggong, it will be easier to do anything in Xuzhou in the future...... Okay, let's go, let's go" ...... "Eh!" wait, let me ask again, have you taken the gift for Cao Sikong?" "...... "Ao, just take it, don't forget to take it." Be sure to pay attention to safety on the road and protect your ..... and gifts. ”

In Lu Bu's expectant eyes, Chen Deng disappeared into the endless moonlight. With an unconcealable smile, Lu Bu returned to the mansion and was about to rest, when he suddenly heard someone outside chopping firewood, which turned out to be Chen Gong.

Chen Deng took Lu Bu's gifts and replies to Cao Cao, as well as his father Chen Qi's entrustment, and met Cao Cao. As Lü Bu's emissary, Chen Deng had the responsibility and obligation to carefully introduce his master to Cao Cao.

Chen Deng told Cao Cao: "Bu Yong has no plan, it is easier to go, and it is better to plan it as soon as possible." ("Romance of the Three Kingdoms") ------ General Lu Bu is really brave, but the fly in the ointment is that he has no sense of direction, often can't find the north, and listens to everyone's words, even the blind man A Bing at the east end of the village poked the blind cane twice on the ground, he rode on the red rabbit horse, let the horse dig two hooves into the ground, and played it in slow motion as if the game was stuck. I think you should help him to keep him buried in the ground and stay still, and cure his road blindness, the sooner the better.

Then, Chen Deng told Cao Cao in detail about Lu Bu's extremely large number of troops and the situation of his men.

Cao Cao said to Chen Deng with admiration: "You know General Lu's symptoms so well, I can't do it." Cao Cao was moved by Chen Deng and immediately named him the Taishou of Guangling County, giving Chen Deng real power over the territory.

Guangling County is the largest county in Xuzhou, and Chen Deng won the jackpot. Cao Cao is the one who holds the jade seal of the Son of Heaven, so this lottery is real and effective. At the beginning, the jade seal was obtained by Sun Jian and hidden in his wife Wu, and later Wu was kidnapped by Yuan Shu, and the jade seal fell into the hands of Yuan Shu, not Sun Ce used the jade seal in exchange for troops to go to Jiangdong to take revenge. Of course, the jade seal in this era naturally has nothing to do with them, and has fallen into the hands of Yuan Chang.

History records that Sun Jian got the palace maid from the well of the Luoyang Imperial Palace to obtain this jade seal. In fact, it is very unrealistic to think about it, how can a palace maid collect jade seals? And after Yuan Chang came, he realized that in fact, it was Liu Xi, the princess of Wannian, who collected jade seals. Thinking that Liu Xi should have reported his identity after being discovered by Sun Jian, Sun Jian had selfish intentions and wanted to hide the jade seal privately after killing Liu Xi, but this jade seal became the source of his death. It is precisely for this reason that Yuan Chang did not say much when he reminded Sun Jian, which can be regarded as avenging Liu Xi.

said that Chen Deng was going back to Xuzhou, and Cao Cao personally said goodbye. Because there were people all around, Cao Cao couldn't tell the privacy of Lu Bu's late road blindness in public, so he held Chen Deng's hand and said, "The affairs of the East will be dealt with with each other." "I'll leave the affairs of the East to you.

Chen Deng is acting in strict accordance with Lu Bu's instructions: take advantage of this rare opportunity to get on the line with Cao Minggong, and it will be easier to do anything in Xuzhou in the future.

Chen Deng did this because Lu Bu's political IQ was too low for the Chen family to support, and since Lu Bu came to Xuzhou, he had been unclear with Yuan Shu's eyebrows, which made the Chen family unacceptable.

Chen Deng's father and son were not optimistic about Lu Bu, so why didn't they help Liu Bei in the first place?

First, Lu Bu got Xuzhou because Liu Bei had a sudden civil strife, and he occupied the capital Xiapi in one night, and the battle was quickly resolved. Second, Liu Bei's strength is indeed too weak, with the wisdom of Chen Qi's father and son, it must be seen that helping Liu Bei beat Lu Bu is an egg touching a stone, Liu Bei's shell is broken, not to mention, as an egg yolk and egg white, at most it will become a spot scattered on the stone; third, as a family official, will put the protection of family safety in the first place. For the Chen family, it doesn't matter who will be the pastor of Xuzhou, because the local government can be controlled through family power. In an unpredictable society, the most important thing is to keep your wealth as safe as possible.

This is also one of the reasons why the family can survive longer than the imperial court, of course, Chen Deng's father and son's behavior is naturally despicable, and Chen Deng later died young, which can be regarded as his long-term infernal retribution.
