Chapter 405: The Overlord Disappears
Looking at the magnificent city of Xuzhou City, Zhao Fei couldn't help but feel emotional. When he first arrived at the city of Xuzhou, Zhao Fei felt that this city wall was so unattainable. But when Xuzhou City was so open to greet itself, everything seemed so simple.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of Xuzhou City, Zhao Fei found a polite young man standing on the side of the city gate. On the side of the young man were all the soldiers who defended the city. But by this time, the soldiers had already taken off their armor and put down their weapons, and they were quietly erected there.
Seeing Cao Cao stepping forward, the young man hurriedly took a few steps forward. Then, I saw the young man leaning over and bowing to the ground and saying, "Weichen Chen Deng, see the prime minister." β
Cao Cao looked down at the young man kneeling in front of him, and then said, "You are Chen Deng?" No need to be polite, get up and speak. β
Hearing this, Chen Deng hurriedly got up. After Chen Deng got up, Zhao Fei also began to look at Chen Deng left and right. It is no surprise that the biggest internal response in Xuzhou City is Chen Deng in front of him. And for this Chen Deng, Zhao Fei has also heard of it a little. After all, on the basis of history, Cao Cao's ability to pacify Xuzhou has a lot to do with this Chen Deng.
Of course, what Zhao Fei didn't expect was that there was something like the same lovesickness as history. Historically, Cao Cao relied on Chen Deng to pacify Lu Bu, and now, it is relying on Chen Deng to take Xuzhou City. Although Lu Bu escaped from Xuzhou City with his cronies, Zhao Fei knew that he would die sooner or later.
Separated from the protection of the tall city wall of Xuzhou City, and there are no available generals around him, the so-called Lu Bu is like a grasshopper after autumn, and he can't jump for a few days. Even if Chen Gong is resourceful, the gap in strength is an insurmountable gap.
Moreover, he has a large number of generals on his side, as long as he entangles Lu Bu, the rest of the generals under Lu Bu are not the opponents of the Cao family's generals. Therefore, the battle of Xuzhou has already laid the victory, as long as there are no accidents, Xuzhou is in the pocket of Cao Jun.
Seeing that someone had been staring at him, Chen Deng subconsciously looked up at the man, and the two looked at each other, Chen Deng suddenly felt that this person was unfathomable. For it was evident from his eyes alone that this man radiated a light of wisdom.
In an instant, Chen Deng knew the identity of the person in front of him. Needless to say, this person must be Cao Cao's mastermind, Zhao Fei and Zhao Pengju, the chief lieutenant who is one of the three dukes.
If you want to gain a foothold in Cao Jun, in addition to your own strength, the easiest and quickest way is to be like Zhao Fei's magic eye. Because Zhao Fei recommended a lot of talents to Cao Cao, and in the end, these talents have great achievements. It can be seen that Zhao Fei's eyes are unusually "vicious".
"I've seen Lord Taiwei." Chen Deng hurriedly stepped forward and saluted. Although the age of the person in front of him is not much different from his own. But what Zhao Fei did was very admirable to Chen Deng. Although Chen Deng also had arrogance, his arrogance did not dare to leak out in front of Zhao Fei.
"Yuanlong doesn't need to be polite, but I should thank you for the majority of soldiers, if it weren't for you, Xuzhou City would definitely not be conquered by our army so easily." Zhao Fei said to Chen Deng with a smile on his face. After telling him good afternoon, Zhao Fei turned his head to Cao Cao next to him and said, "Prime Minister, Chen Deng is rewarded for breaking the city!" β
"Hmm." Cao Cao nodded and said, "This matter is exactly what I want, but now is not the time to talk about this." When our army completely rules Xuzhou, it is not too late to talk about rewards. After speaking, Cao Cao bowed his head and said to Chen Deng: "Yuanlong, I will enter the city." β
"Prime Minister, Weichen still has something to ask for." Listening to Cao Cao's words, Chen Deng hurriedly spoke.
Glancing at Chen Deng suspiciously, Cao Cao said very boldly: "If there is anything, it doesn't matter, as long as I can help you." β
Chen Deng looked at Cao Cao, and then said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want to intercede with the prime minister for all the soldiers present." β
"Prime Minister, you may not know that before Lu Bu withdrew his army, he had slaughtered many people in the city. And we soldiers are all natives of Xuzhou, so ......" Before Chen Deng finished speaking, Cao Cao interrupted him.
"This matter will be handed over to Qi Yuanlong, you have full authority to deal with, if you encounter anything, you can talk to Peng Ju directly." As he spoke, Cao Cao also stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhao Fei on the side. And Zhao Fei showed a very helpless expression, which looked very miserable.
However, for Chen Deng, he was extremely happy. Because I dare to feel that I have not done this in vain after all. Compared with Lu Bu, Cao Cao is the master of his dreams. However, now there are many resourceful people around the master, and going by himself is just the icing on the cake.
However, the icing on the cake is still to do as little as possible, and Chen Deng, an arrogant person, does not bother to do this. Therefore, Chen Deng had already thought that instead of putting the icing on the cake in front of Cao Cao, it was better to go to other places below to be at ease.
Cao Jun's army entered Xuzhou City leisurely, and of course, Zhao Fei was also among them. The pattern of Xuzhou City makes Zhao Fei quite refreshing, although it is not as prosperous as Luoyang Xudu, but it is also a rare heroic city.
Cao's army rested in Xuzhou City for a few days, and then continued to pursue LΓΌ Bu's army. At this time, Cao Cao was anxious, because he wanted to see Xuzhou completely under his rule as soon as possible, so it was unbearable for him to have an extra point.
The army went on the march, and Chen Deng was left in Xuzhou City. After all, Chen Deng is a native of Xuzhou, and he is quite popular among the people. If he is there, he can subdue the people of Xuzhou Baixin as soon as possible.
Moreover, Xuzhou has just been disrupted, and it really needs a person who has the ability to finish Xuzhou to take care of Xuzhou. After all, there is a person who knows the roots, and Cao Cao can rest assured.
However, it is worth mentioning that Cao's army has just set off. However, the two cavalry of the Cao army had already been sent out to harass Lu Bu's army. Due to the cooperation of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the White Horse Followers, the speed of the new army of Lu Bu's army has slowed down again and again.
But in this regard, even though Lu Bu had a headache, he had no way to do it. It's not just Lu Bu himself who has no choice, even Chen Gong, he doesn't know how to solve this matter.
Receiving the image of the white horse righteous servant, the attack of the tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers is also unusually elegant. Their attacks are in a very strange direction, and they flee immediately after hitting, giving you no time to react.
