"Dad, now that Liu Wei's army has arrived at Xiao Pass, aren't you worried at all?"

In Xuzhou City, in the Chen Mansion, in the hall, a man took a sip of tea, and then looked at the upper seat and asked.

"Worry, what do I have to worry about, the sky is falling and there is a tall top, this Xuzhou is not my father's Xuzhou."

"It's... Having said that, I'm afraid our Chen family should also have to find a way to survive at this time. The man paused, then looked at his father and spoke.

"Haha, Yuanlong, you're still too anxious, although you are talented, you still can't hold your breath." The old man smiled and said, he is naturally Chen Si.

"Now at this time, I don't have the mind of my father, at the beginning, Cao Gong asked us to stay in Xuzhou to give him an internal response, but now that Liu Wei's power is getting stronger, Cao Gong can no longer get involved in this Xuzhou." Chen Deng sighed and said.

Once Liu Wei took Xuzhou, he would have more certainty about attacking Qingzhou and Yanzhou.

And with Liu Wei's strength now, once he takes Xuzhou, it will be really difficult for others to take it back.

"Alas, it's a different time now, if it weren't for your father, you wouldn't have agreed to Cao Mengde's request."

Chen Si also sighed at this time, and then put down the teacup and said.

"Since you talked about this matter with your father today, what do you think about Yuanlong?" Chen Si looked at Chen Deng and continued to speak.

Chen Si still understands his son, if there is nothing to do, how could Chen Deng suddenly talk about it in a dignified manner.

Chen Deng nodded, and was about to open his mouth to speak, but was stopped by Chen Si.

"Let's go, let's go to the study with my father." Chen Si looked around, although there was no one left, it was better to be careful.

Chen Deng quickly understood that he was too anxious to think about it, so he got up and went to the study with Chen Si.

"Yuanlong, so you can speak." Chen Si looked at Chen Deng and said.

"Dad, the child thinks that if we can take advantage of His Majesty's attack on Xuzhou to make meritorious contributions, then we can follow His Majesty to serve."

At the beginning, because he was coerced by Liu Bei, he almost killed Liu Wei, and after Cao Cao found out, he agreed to do things for him.

But now, according to the current situation, although Cao Cao is also a capable master, it is difficult to get involved in Xuzhou.

Moreover, Liu Wei had already attacked Xiao Pass, and he didn't see any movement from Cao Cao.

Therefore, in order to protect the Chen family and make himself useful, it will undoubtedly be a good choice to take refuge in Liu Wei at this time.

Soon Chen Deng told his father all his thoughts.

"Dad has also thought about this matter, but do you know that this matter is not trivial, if we are not careful, then we will all die, and our Chen family will be finished."

When he said the back, Chen Si was a little worried, and even his voice was a little quieter.

Obviously, as the head of the Chen family, he has more things to think about, not just the life and death of one or two people.

"Dad, I naturally know this, but if we don't do this, then how can we get out of the current predicament."

Chen Deng also knew the concerns of his father Chen Si, but there was no way to do these things.

"But this... If Liu Bei wins, or if Cao Gong comes to help, won't we be even more in danger at that time? Chen Si hesitated for a moment, then looked at Chen Deng and asked.

"Difficult." Chen Deng shook his head and said, "This time it is difficult for Xuzhou, it is difficult for Liu Bei to keep Xuzhou. ”

"Now that Xiao Pass has not been broken, why do you say this?"

"Recently, there have been a lot of words, saying that Liu Bei and his brother-in-law are even more incompatible, and if the brothers are still incompatible, how can they talk about anything else?"

Chen Deng looked at his father Chen Si and said, although he said that he had similar words before, but this time more people are spreading it.

"Don't act rashly, just act according to the situation, if you have the opportunity." Chen Si thought about it and said.

"Yes, the boy understands." Chen Deng saw that his father nodded, and immediately responded with a smile.

Chen Deng then said hello to Chen Si, and then left the study.

At the same time, in Lu Bu's camp, after Chen Gong read the letter, his face was not very good-looking.

"This Pang Tong stopped us here, and I naturally know his purpose, but in this way, if King Hongnong really takes Xuzhou, we will lose more than we gain."

Chen Gong took the letter, then looked at Lu Bu and said, Pang Tong is forcing them to make a choice, either let Liu Wei take Xuzhou, or turn his face to prevent Liu Wei from attacking Xuzhou.

"But if we turn against Liu Wei, it will be tantamount to falling for Pang Tong's plan." Lu Bu still said with an ugly face.

"Lord, although this is the case, but Liu Wei will do us all kinds of harm and no benefit if he takes Xuzhou, and the benefits he promised are just small benefits."

After listening to Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu instantly understood what Chen Gong meant.

Now is a troubled time, but the time to compete for the world, even if he and Liu Wei are still cooperating now, but sooner or later there will be a battle.

Since there is no way to bring benefits to himself by attacking Xuzhou now, there is naturally no need to help Liu Wei.

Once Liu Bian's strength is strengthened again, it means that his strength will be weakened, and his strength will be even worse than Liu Bian's.

"This damn Pang Tong." Lu Bu couldn't help but scold.

I didn't expect to toss it myself, but I still couldn't attack Xuzhou in person.

Suddenly, Lu Bu was also a little dissatisfied with Chen Gong in his heart, if Chen Gong could crack Pang Tong's formation, and there was a way to break through Yidu, everything would not be the current situation.

But none of these were available, so they could only be forcibly blocked in Yidu, and finally fell into Pang Tong's strategy.

Or rather, it can only become a compromise in disguise.

"Feng Xian, although this matter has been decided, but we can't directly turn our faces, Feng Xian can write to Liu Wei, saying that if he takes Xuzhou and is willing to cut half out, then the cooperation can continue."

Then Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu and stepped forward and said in a low voice.

"Half? How could Liu Wei agree. Lu Bu immediately smiled.

"If he doesn't agree, then we won't have anything to say if we turn our faces, and if he agrees, then we can drag the soldiers of Yidu here."

Chen Gong squinted his eyes halfway, and then immediately spoke.

After hearing Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu thought about it and finally nodded, "Just do as you say." ”

"Your Majesty, the two generals, Tao Ying and Zhang He, are now soldiers in Xiaoguan and are waiting for Your Majesty's will."

Jieshi, there are soldiers above the main hall who looked at Liu Wei and asked for his life.

"Let the two generals not act rashly, when I lead the army to come, we can attack Xiaoguan at that time."

Liu Wei looked at the man and said, now Pang Tong is guarding Xiao Pass, Xiao Guan has also gathered a lot of people, if it is just Zhang He and Tao Ying, then a few people will definitely not be able to take Xiao Guan.

If they act rashly, it will undoubtedly be an unwise move, and it is very likely that they will fall into Pang Tong's plan and suffer heavy losses.

"Since Junyi and they have arrived at Xiao Pass, then let's also set off, and when the time comes, we will break Xiao Pass and strive to take Xuzhou in one fell swoop." Liu Wei looked at the crowd and said after the soldier received the order to leave.

"General Zang Ba, this time I and Zilong will lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters first, you guard the Jieshi, if there is a need, I will transfer you there." Liu Wei looked at Zang Ba and said.

Zang Ba didn't think there was anything to do and directly accepted the order.

Liu Wei just wanted to say that he could retreat and prepare, and soon Lu Bu's letter was sent again.

It's strange, is it still an appointment?

Liu Wei muttered, and then he didn't say more, but asked people to bring up the letter.

"This Lu Bu is really a lion's mouth, he can't even get over Yi, and he dares to ask for half of Xuzhou."

Liu Wei also said unhappily after reading the letter, although he knew that this was deliberately proposed by Lu Bu, but he was still very unhappy, this kind of threat.

"Why should Your Majesty be angry, just promise him, he will never take an inch of Xuzhou land from Liang's hands." After Zhuge Liang heard this, he shook his head with a smile and said.
