After Chen Deng and Yin Li had a cannibalistic fight at Boyang Pass a few months ago, he was worried that Cao Cao would ask for the guilt, so he and Yin Li hid directly in Taishan County. Later www.biquge.info Cao Cao's army was ambushed by Lü Bu and Chen Dengguan was reinstated again. Although Chen Deng knew that Cao Cao was using him, in order to take revenge, Chen Deng could only accept Cao Cao's gift unwillingly.

When he led the troops to Huai'an, Che Zhou was very familiar with the temporary defenders who would be sent back to Xiapi, and Chen Deng trained the soldiers diligently after his arrival, and went around to suppress bandits and strengthen the soldiers. He has more real troops in his hands than Che Xuan. While Lü Bu was dragged south of Guangling by Jiangdong Sun Ce, Chen Deng asked Che Zhou to lead his army south together.

The two of them went down to the three cities in one breath, and just waved their troops to the territory of Dongyang County, they met Sun Ce's general Tai Shici.

The two armies faced each other. Deng Fa, the general under the command of Che Zhou, deceived Tai Shi Ci for his lack of reputation, and jumped out of the horse with a gun, directly taking Tai Shi Ci, and wanted to make a meritorious contribution before the battle.

The two fought for less than five rounds, Tai Shi Ci pushed the horse back, took off the halberd on his back and threw it at Deng Fa while retreating, and when Deng Fa blocked the halberd, he stabbed Deng Fa off the horse with a shot. Tai Shi Ci waved his army into the chariot array, and no one could stop him wherever he passed, killing countless Cao soldiers.

Seeing Tai Shi Ci impacting the big array, Che Xuan fled his defeated soldiers in all directions to escape, and personally dragged his knife on his horse to kill. Che Xuan and Tai Shi Ci fought for twenty or thirty rounds, but they could not retreat from the enemy, leading the army to retreat. Tai Shi Ci took the opportunity to cover up and kill.

The army of chariots was killed and lost their armor, and the grain and grass were not transported away, so they were abandoned along the way. The soldiers under the command of Tai Shi Ci were defeated in a hundred battles, when did they see a road full of supplies? After the battle, the soldiers who were far away from the banner of Tai Shi Ci went straight to pick up the items, and Tai Shi Ci's command chased less and less, chasing less than five miles, and a cannon rang out on the two mountains.

It turned out that Chen Deng saw that Che Zhou was invincible, and led the army to come to the rescue, seeing that Tai Shi Ci was in hot pursuit, Chen Deng and Yin Li chose a small mountain to ambush it, and let the Che Zhou army pass, and waited for Tai Shi Ci to kill him, and the two mountains were killed.

Tai Shi Ci saw that there were ambush soldiers and was about to command the soldiers to meet the enemy, but the soldiers under his command were suddenly frightened, and they didn't listen to Tai Shi Ci's orders at all, and the rear team changed to the front team and just ran.

The more the soldiers ran, the more they became, and the soldiers who obeyed Tai Shici's command were in danger. Tai Shi Ci saw that he couldn't do anything, so he didn't dare to fight, and broke through violently with his soldiers.

How could Chen Deng let Tai Shici leave and lead the soldiers in fierce pursuit. Tai Shi Ci couldn't line up the big formation, couldn't stand the position, fled for twenty or thirty miles in one go, and retreated to Dongyang City before barely collecting more than 3,000 remnants, and more soldiers took the opportunity to flee to the mountains to hide.

Chen Deng directly followed and killed, and the soldiers were under the city of Sun. Tai Shi Ci closed the four gates, wanting to hold on and wait for Sun Ce's army to come to help. Chen Deng served in Guangling for more than a year, and won the love of the family and the people, and despised Jiangdong as a barbarian outside of education, and the degree of hatred was slightly lower than that of Lu Bu. Lu Bu's reputation was too strong, they didn't dare to resist, and threw the anger in their hearts on the Jiangdong soldiers.

Night. Tai Shi Ci fought a day, tired, just fell asleep, the city shouted to kill the sky, Chen Deng's army has entered the city, Tai Shi Ci put on armor and got on the horse, wanted to repel Chen Deng, several guards grabbed Tai Shi Ci to death, persuaded: "Most of the enemy army into the city, our army is small, the city is still barely defended, now the street battle can not resist the Cao soldiers at all, once the Cao soldiers besiege the city, it will be difficult for the general to go again." ”

"Didn't Ben order to defend carefully? Why was it still broken by Cao Bing? Tai Shi Ci carried a spear, and if the young general was not satisfied with the answer, he might stab him to death in a fit of rage.

"The family in the city secretly colluded with Chen Deng, opened the city gate when our army was unprepared, and let the thieves enter the city. Our army had no time to counterattack, and the thieves had already taken control of the northern gate. ”

Tai Shi Ci saw that there were shaking Cao soldiers everywhere in the distance, and the loss of Sheyang City was a foregone conclusion, so he led the army to retreat to Hailing from the south gate. Che Xuan lost Tai Shi Ci for a while, his face was gloomy, and he wanted to lead the army to pursue Tai Shi Ci, but was stopped by Chen Deng.

Two defeats in one day, the surrender of the soldiers under Tai Shici's command, the escape of the escape, and the less than a thousand people who are still behind him are depressed. On the way, he happened to meet Chen Wu's army who rushed to support, Tai Shici regretted it, he knew that there were reinforcements coming, as long as he held the south gate, Chen Wu's reinforcements entered the city from the south gate, and he may not be able to recapture Dongyang City. Tai Shi Ci was so angry that he wanted to click off the young general who had a bad idea.

Tai Shi Ci and Chen Wu returned to Hailing together.

Soon after entering Hailing City, the news of the arrival of Sun Ce's army came, and Tai Shici regretted it even more and went ten miles away to ask for guilt.

As soon as Sun Ce heard that Tai Shi Ci had lost Dongyang City, he didn't have time to get angry and discussed with Zhou Yu, and planned to defeat Cao's soldiers in Dongyang City, forcing Chen Deng to improve the offensive route and delay Lü Bu. Now Cao Bing occupied Dongyang City, which caught Sun Ce off guard.

Zhou Yu comforted: "This is not a bad thing, the lord will take Dongyang City, let Cao Bing see the firm determination of our army, and the chariot will change its route." ”

"Order Tai Shi Ci to make meritorious service and be the pioneer of the siege." Sun Ce forgave Tai Shi Ci for the great crime of losing the city, and let Tai Shi Ci be the vanguard to attack Dongyang City.

Che Xuan heard that Sun Ce's army was coming, which was completely unexpected by him, he thought that Lu Bu would drag Sun Ce to the south, but he didn't expect Lu Bu to lose a few counties south of Guangling so quickly, and anxiously found Chen Deng to discuss: "Sun Ce's army is pressing, our army has few soldiers, how to retreat from the strong enemy?" It's better to retreat to Huai'an and hold on. ”

Che Xuan is nominally his boss, Chen Deng is the Taishou of Guangling, how can he be willing to give up the few county towns in his hands, and he and Lu Bu have not avenged the revenge, how can he be willing to retreat: "If the battle between the two armies is decided according to the number of people, then everyone doesn't have to fight, pull the soldiers out and count, and the party with more soldiers will win directly." ”

"But Sun Ce is known as the little overlord of Jiangdong, and the day before yesterday, a Tai Shi Ci made it impossible for the general to resist, not to mention the arrival of Sun Ce with a large army." Che Xuan said worriedly.

Chen Deng thought for a while and said: "The courage of the martial artist is not to worry, I already have a strategy to break the enemy." ”

In accordance with the method Chen Deng said, the general ordered people to accumulate firewood and grass in the necessary places from Huai'an to Dongyang County, and set up a pile every ten steps, in vertical and horizontal rows, neatly arranged, and arranged more than ten miles of roads. Then it was lit in the night, and the light of the fire stood out in the dark night.

Sun Ce received news from the scouts, and the north was in flames. Busy taking the generals to choose a mountain top to observe, pointed to the long fire in the sky and asked, "Cao Bing's reinforcements have arrived?" ”

Yu Xuan analyzed: "There is no big enemy in Huaiyin and Huai'an at present, and Yuan Shu's troops are preparing to fight with Lu Bu, and they are unable to attack Huaiyin. ”

Han Dang said: "If Chen Deng's army defends Dongyang City, and then sets up a horn in Ping'an County, and the two cities rescue each other, it may not be easy for our army to attack." Why don't you attack another city instead? ”

Sun Ce couldn't make up his mind, and seeing that Zhou Yu had not spoken, he asked, "What does Gong Jin think?" ”

"If we can't capture Dongyang City, our army's road to the north will be blocked, and it doesn't make the slightest sense to go north to Xuzhou to attack other cities, so Dongyang City must be taken." Zhou Yu analyzed the situation in front of him, Dongyang City was the nail of their north, if they did not occupy it, even if they hit Xiapi, the grain and grass could not be delivered, and tens of thousands of troops could only starve to death.

"It's a lie." Cheng Pu's face darkened, and he retorted: "Although Dongyang City is small, there are tens of thousands of soldiers who take turns to defend it, like an iron bucket. Now that reinforcements have arrived, our army does not have an advantage in strength, and it is still unknown whether we can capture Dongyang City. Once the army is defeated and the Jiangdong Shanyue barbarians rebel, it will seriously affect the foundation of the main public. "Cheng Pu, Han Dang and other veterans have been dissatisfied with Zhou Yu for a long time, and their reputation is higher than that of Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu is all on the throne because he and Sun Ce are righteous brothers. Whenever Sun Ce made a decision, he would ask Zhou Yu's opinion, which made them very unconvinced.

Zhou Yu heard Cheng Pu scolding in front of him, but he was not angry, and bowed down generously: "What the old general taught is that Yu remembers it in his heart." ”

After Zhou Yu bowed, he explained: "This is the best time to step out of Jiangdong, once Yuan Shao defeats Cao Cao and the army goes south, the lord still only has the land of Jiangdong projectiles, how to contend with it?" In this way, only Jiangdong and Yangzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou can fight. ”

Except for Lu Bu, I am afraid that few people believe that Cao Cao can defeat Yuan Shao, once Yuan Shao defeats Cao Cao, the power is unprecedentedly strong, and at that time, the princes of the world are like destroying the ancient and decaying in front of Yuan Shao, and no one can resist it.

Zhou Yu continued: "General Zhongmou is slightly insufficient to charge into battle and fight for cities and land, but no one can match the talent of being virtuous and capable, and protecting Jiangdong. Since there are no worries, this is the time to expand the territory. Since Che Zhou wants to defend Dongyang City, how can he do what he wants, of course I can't fight an offensive and defensive battle with him, I want to lead him out of the city for a decisive battle. ”

"It is rumored that Chen Deng under the command of Che Zhou has great talents, how can he easily abandon the fortified city and go out of the city to fight?" Cheng Pu asked rhetorically.

"Now that Cao's reinforcements have arrived, it is impossible for Che Zhou to squeeze all the tens of thousands of troops in the city, and he will not be able to exert his overall strength. Since Chen Deng is talented, how can he not know the truth that he will lose if he defends for a long time, and the grain and grass consumed by tens of thousands of troops is not something that the small Dongyang City can bear. If he wants to recapture the entire Guangling, he will not stay in the city all the time, and he will eventually come out to fight. ”

Sun Ce listened to Zhou Yu's words, nodded in agreement, and asked, "How can I lead the defenders in the city out?" ”

"The lord sent a weak brigade to a stalemate with Che Zhou outside the city, and the elite soldiers pretended to make a detour to Gaoyou, Ping'an and other counties to cut off their grain routes, and Che Zhou was definitely worried that the retreat would be blocked, so he sent a large army out to engage in the battle, and our army only needed to ambush halfway and wait for Che Zhou to lead the army to chase after him." Zhou Yu said.

Sun Ce looked back at the reactions of Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Chen Wu, Zhou Tai and others, although Cheng Pu was still full of displeasure, seeing that Sun Ce still nodded in agreement with Zhou Yu's statement.

"Then do what Gong Jin said and act according to the plan." Sun Ce finally made a decision.

The scout reported that Sun Ce divided his troops to cut off his back road, and wanted to withdraw the army and retreat, but Chen Deng rushed to stop him: "Our army has heavy troops in the counties behind us, so there is no need to worry about it." At present, Sun Ce thought that the rear of our army was empty, so he divided his troops to capture, our army did not increase the troops in Dongyang City, in fact, Sun Ce was in the plan, and within a few days, the general's army could go down to Tangyi and take Guangling City directly, and victory was in sight. ”

After Chen Deng stabilized the carriage, he ordered the soldiers to stand by and paralyze Sun Ce's army. Personally ascended the city wall, carefully observed Sun Ce's army scolding outside the city, and waited for the right time to attack.
