Chen Deng got Mi Fang's greeting post, and he couldn't make up his mind, so he immediately went home to find Chen Gui and showed Mi Fang's greeting post to Chen Gui. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Chen Gui finished reading Mi Fang's greeting post and said: "At the beginning, the Mi family in the East China Sea and my Chen family were both two major families in Xuzhou, and they won Tao Qian's trust, and later the Mi family had contacts with today's Yanhou because of business cooperation, and then Mi Zhu moved all the industries to Youzhou, and married his sister to Yanhou. ”

"At the beginning, my father still had some complaints about Mi Zhu's approach, but I didn't expect that now it seems that Mi Zhu is worthy of being a real businessman, who understands the truth of strange goods and can live in business, and it is already the ultimate to do business like this." Chen Gui talked about these past events with a lot of emotion.

Chen Deng also echoed and said: "Yes, I think my son thought that the Mi family left Xuzhou, which was a good thing for my Chen family, but now it seems that this is not the case, when the Mi family was in Xuzhou, it was not only the opponent of my Chen family, but also the ally of my Chen family, the Mi family left, it seems that Tao Qian could only rely on our Chen family, but I didn't expect Tao Qian to lose so quickly without the support of the Mi family, and my Chen family took refuge in Yuan Shu, I originally thought it was the step of advancement, I never thought that Yuan Shu was short-sighted, and he did such a short-sighted thing. If the Chen family doesn't make a decision at this moment, they are afraid that they will follow Yuan Shu to perish. ”

Hearing Chen Deng's words, Chen Gui nodded with satisfaction and said: "My son can have this insight, I am deeply glad for my father, Yuan Shu is already a dry bone in the grave, our Chen family can not accompany him to perish, the current road in front of us can only be separated from Yuan Shu, who do I think our Yuan family should take refuge in?" ”

"This..."Chen Deng said hesitantly: "Don't hide it from my father, my son is also a little undecided, judging from the current situation, the biggest princes in the world are none other than the general Yuan Shao and Yanhou Su Chen, the general coerced the Son of Heaven to make the princes, and won the trust of the world's scholars, if my Chen family defected to the general, it would not be impossible." ”

"But Yanhou has already controlled the four counties of Xuzhou, only Pi is left, if my Chen family makes a contribution to the city at this time, they will be able to occupy a place under Yanhou, not to mention that now Mi Zhu's sister Mi Zhen also gave birth to Yanhou, if our Chen family takes refuge in Yanhou, presumably the Mi family is eager to get us as an ally, after all, Yanhou has not yet set up a son, no one can say what will happen in the future, the greater the risk, the greater the harvest."

Chen Gui heard Chen Deng's analysis, nodded, and replied, "Your analysis is not wrong, but you have ignored one point. ”

"What?"

"You're ignoring someone."

"Who?"

"Sun Ce!"

"Sun Ce?" Chen Denghu asked suspiciously: "What does this matter have to do with Sun Ce?" ”

Chen Gui's eyes shone brightly, and he said: "The world thinks that Sun Ce turned his back on Yan Hou in order to be self-reliant, but now it seems that it is not necessarily, Sun Ce is very likely to be a shadow under Yan Hou. ”

"What? How is this possible? Chen Deng couldn't believe his father's prophecy.

"Being a father is only a guess, and I can't be sure, do you know who Yuzhang is really in charge of now?"

"Isn't it Sun Ce?"

"Of course not!" Chen Gui replied: "Our Chen family has been based in the land of Jianghuai for a hundred years, and it is not that there is no reliable intelligence network, according to reliable sources, it is Zhou Yu who is really in charge of Yuzhang now, Zhou Yu once served as Langya Minister, Sun Ce's betrayal of Yanhou may be credible, but is it possible that Zhou Yu also turned his back on Yanhou for Sun Ce?" ”

"This..."Yes, if my father's news is true, then this is worth playing, how could Zhou Yu be in Yuzhang, this doesn't make sense, it's not logical.

Chen Gui continued: "If Sun Ce is really a shadow son laid by Yan Hou, then the defeat of Yuan Shu is the beginning of Yan Hou's hegemony of the princes, after the defeat of Yuan Shu, Yan Hou has Youzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou four states, compared to the general Yuan Shao is more powerful, even if Yuan Shao has the Son of Heaven in hand, but don't forget, there is also the Chang'an Imperial Court, that is the orthodoxy of the Han family, so Yuan Shao and Su Chen will eventually have a battle, and my Chen family can't choose the wrong one at this juncture, otherwise there will be no recovery." ”

"According to my father's words, we should take refuge in Yanhou?"

"Maybe this is the will of heaven, relying on the strong, is the foundation of our family's survival, since Mi Fang has entered the city, then presumably Yan Hou is already determined to win Xiapi, why don't I push the boat down the river at this time and make great contributions."

"What the father said is very true, the son will do it!"

"Go ahead!"

Chen Deng knew that if he wanted to be taken seriously by Su Chen, now was the best opportunity, in addition to Zhang Xun and Liu Xun, there was also Cao Bao in the garrison army in the city, Zhang and Liu were not in harmony, Cao Bao became the common object of the two, he might be able to use this opportunity to wipe out Zhang and Liu, if this is the case, then he has really made a great contribution.

Chen Deng met with Zhang He and Mifang in private, and he had expected the intention of the two, so he immediately wrote a letter and asked Mi Fang to hand it to Yanhou, in which he expressed his admiration for Yanhou and promised to give the greatest help to the Soviet army.

When Su Chen got Chen Deng's letter, he not only sighed that this person was really a person who knew the times, he called Sima Yi and instructed: "Zhongda, there is a task entrusted to you, are you willing?" ”

"My lord commands!" Sima Yi has always been a clerical existence by Su Chen's side, only a few people have learned Sima Yi's power, and the rest don't know that Su Chen is still followed by such a powerful person.

"This time Chen Deng intends to join our army, I intend to send you to Xiapi to contact Chen Deng, and cooperate with Chen Deng to take advantage of the contradiction between Zhang Xun and Liu Xun to find an opportunity to open the city gate and let our army enter the city."

"The subordinates will definitely live up to their mission!"

Su Chen's army pressed the border, Zhang Xun and Liu Xun did not dare to slack off, strictly prevent spies from mixing into the city, and the patrols and guards on weekdays were doubled, relying on Chen Deng's help, Sima Yi easily entered Xiapi City.

After Sima Yi saw Chen Deng, he didn't have any special performance, but said that he was a messenger sent by Yanhou to contact, and Chen Deng didn't care, now the troops defending the city are all soldiers and horses of Zhang and Liu, and it is not easy to deceive the city gate, so Chen Deng must first get the trust of the two.

Zhang Xun was very dissatisfied with Yuan Shu's appointment of Ji Ling as a general, he always thought that he was the general that Yuan Shu relied on the most, and he never thought that because Ji Ling had made great contributions to Nanyang, he was now above him, with his heart, how could he stand it.

Chen Deng knew Zhang Xun's thoughts, and took the opportunity to encourage Zhang Xun to go out of the city to fight, as long as he repelled Su Chen's attack, Yuan Shu would definitely reward him at that time.

Zhang Xun was bewitched by Chen Deng's thoughts, and he was eager to make meritorious contributions, regardless of Liu Xun's dissuasion, he immediately ordered 30,000 troops and went out of the city to meet Su Chen.
