That night, Chen Deng rushed to the mansion as scheduled with a few followers, and really came to participate in this banquet.

After the uncle and nephew met, they exchanged a few words of greeting and sat down according to their priorities. Chen Jue was 'invited' to the banquet, and he didn't know how Chen Yu was organized, this old man's spirit seemed to be better, but he just looked at his eldest son at the banquet, so he blindly drank without even saying a word.

After the banquet began, Chen Yu and Chen Cong were always looking for something to say, but Chen Deng always replied with one sentence or even a few words, and his words were perfunctory.

Secretly, Chen Yu and Chen Cong hated each other so much that their teeth itched.

Seeing that the time is ripe, according to the old tradition, it is still called by smashing the cup.

"Smack!" Chen Yu suddenly threw the pottery wine bowl on his table on the ground, but the quilt was broken, and it was expected that at this time, none of the officials who were bought by Chen Yu's brothers who should be ready to rush in did not appear.

The other Chen family members attending the meeting were all taken aback when they saw Chen Yu's actions, and Chen Deng's uncles and brothers in the branch where Chen Qi was located immediately jumped up, pointed at Chen Yu and asked loudly: "Chen Yu, what are you going to do?" ”

"Hehehe!" But at this time, Chen Yu's eyes didn't look at anyone else at all, he laughed miserably, stared at Chen Deng and asked, "Nephew Yuanlong, it seems that what I'm going to do, you have already guessed it!" ”

"Two cousins, people can't always fall in one place, but when you are in such a crisis, you two always think about yourself. I know that you are planning to take advantage of this banquet to take advantage of the officials in the palace that I have never cleaned up to put me under house arrest again, and you two plan to open the city to welcome Sun Ce into the city. Hehehe, because instead of taking the initiative to open the city and surrender to Liu Xuzhou later, you would rather surrender to Sun Ce's arrogant child.

Two cousins, the little nephew didn't guess wrong! Now, all three of my brothers have died in the wilderness because of your ambitions. That's right, it was my father who made the wrong choice at the beginning, but if it weren't for the two of you who have been instigating from the sidelines, how would our Chen family be like the panicked dogs we are now? Chen Deng shook his head and replied with a wry smile.

Chen Deng's words resonated in the hearts of other Chen clansmen. That's right, if there is no instigation from Chen Yu and Chen Cong, under Liu Bei's command, the Chen family's power in Xiapi has begun to be gradually eroded by Liu Bei, but with Chen Deng, Xiapi Chen can at least monopolize all of the entire Guangling County.

However, now, the reinforcement they are looking forward to Cao Cao is just using them as a gun again.

Surrender to Sun Ce, Chen Yu and Chen Cong can do it, but the other Chen family members can't do it, no one wants to be like Hua Xin, a person who is dozens of years old, and surrenders to a young man in his twenties.

As for Liu Bei?

The other Chen family members in the living room can figure it out after a little thought, the so-called unjust debtor has the owner, among the Chen clan people present, in addition to Chen Yu and Chen Cong, who have become the target of the public, as long as Chen Deng can repel Sun Cejun, Liu Beijun will then bring troops here, for Chen Deng's sake, Liu Bei will at least let go of the other Chen clansmen.

In fact, the reason why Chen Deng did not send someone to clean up the government was that on the one hand, he really didn't have the time and energy to deal with such trivial matters, after all, the officials in the government were all veterans for many years, and they had an irreplaceable role in dealing with the disputes of the people in the city. Now, Sun Cejun is storming Guangling City, and Chen Deng naturally knows that what the city needs most is stability, and with these officials, it can indeed play a good role in stabilizing the situation.

On the other hand, this is a flaw deliberately left by Chen Deng.

There is a flaw, so that the people in the city with ill intentions can automatically get into this flaw, Chen Deng deliberately found a reason by the way, killed one of the officials who was used to doing bad things, and then, he secretly sent someone to take the person's place. Chen Yu and Chen Cong secretly bribed these officials and prepared to use this banquet to put Chen Deng under house arrest again.

Therefore, when Chen Deng walked into the palace, about half a moment later, the soldiers who followed him arrested all the officials in the palace.

To put it bluntly, the officials in the government are all the 'foxes' in the fox and the fake tiger, if there is no support behind the big tiger Chen Deng, they are not as useful as a cat. When facing ordinary people, they can show their teeth and claws, but when they really face the elite soldiers armed with Changge and crossbows, they take the initiative to kneel on the ground and beg for mercy.

With Chen Deng's insider, Chen Deng's personal guard leader quickly found out all the people who had accepted Chen Yu and Chen Cong's money from the officials, and waited until noon tomorrow, Chen Deng would pronounce the crimes of these people in public in the city, and would push them out of the noon gate and behead them on the same day.

As for Chen Yu and Chen Cong, as well as their families, after all, they are all members of the Chen clan, and they can't write two Chens in one stroke, so Chen Deng ordered people to put all their two families in the prison of the government on the spot.

Perhaps, there is a providence in the dark.

The next day, Chen Deng personally tried the officials and sentenced them all to death.

On the night of the same day, the soldiers defending the city suddenly discovered that Sun Cejun, who had stormed Guangling City for a whole day, suddenly and quietly took the initiative to retreat.

Sun Ce was naturally unwilling to retreat to Jiangdong like this, but at this point, he had to retreat.

The reason is very simple, during the period when Sun Ce led the main force and Zhu Zhi to storm Guangling City, Sun Ce's army not only lost the southeast of Jiujiang County, the only two remaining counties close to the Yangtze River, Quanshu County and Fuling County, but also what he didn't expect was that Sun Ben almost lost half of Lujiang County.

If it weren't for Zhou Yu's quick opportunity to cross the Yangtze River in time and rescue Sun Ben from Juchao County, Sun Ben's troops would probably have suffered the annihilation of the entire army.

Nowadays, in the entire southern area of Lujiang County, except for a county in Xunyang County on the edge of Poyang Lake, which was known as Peng Li in ancient times, which was also controlled by Sun Ben, all other counties in Lujiang County have been recovered by Liu Beijun.

Tai Shi Ci and Lu Su naturally don't have such great ability.

The person Liu Bei relied on was Wei Ming.

On Wei Yan's orders, Wei Ming stayed in Jiujiang County to help Liu Bei recover the lost territory, and before leaving, Wei Yan specially left 300 elite veterans of the Yellow Turban Army under his command.
