In the dark night, Sima Yi quietly looked at the city in the distance, and some inexplicable feelings appeared in his heart, and a slight understanding of Chen Deng's ability and wisdom began to appear in his heart.

Although this person has always been partial to Xuzhou and has never entered the Cao Group, when it comes to wisdom, it is not comparable to leisure, and in terms of treachery and change, this person is definitely not inferior to any of the top wise men in the world......

It was at this time that at the west gate of Xiapi City, a torch was slowly erected, and it was compared back and forth three times in the air southwest of the gatehouse of Xiapi City, sending out a signal for Sima Yi and others to attack there.

Although Sima Yi's eyes were small, they were very focused, and he captured the signal information sent by Chen Deng at once!

A smile hung on the corner of Sima Yi's mouth, and he turned to Gan Ning and said, "Let's go, that's the place!" Let the three armies take their blades and pickaxes, and let's go to the siege! ”

The three armies made a detour and came to the place where the torch gave the signal, Gan Ning looked up at the tall city wall, and said curiously: "I said the second brother, this city wall is so high, if you want to dig him down, what year and month will you have to wait?" ”

Sima Yi smiled slightly, and said: "I said just now, the last time Xiapi City passed through a fire to burn the urn city, and then it was immediately dug up and irrigated by Surabaya, this day is the sun is shining, the inside of the earthen wall has long been loosened, although it is not all places, but there will always be one or two points that are strong outside the middle, and cannot be used as a barrier, and now Chen Deng has told us such a place, and how to act next depends on our own...... Top dog. First send an order to the three armies, light a fire under this embankment, burn the foundation, and then quickly dig and open the way to attack the city! ”

“…………”

**************************

Outside the city gate tower, Sima Yi, Gan Ning and others began to dig a fragile corner of Picheng, and in the Taishou Mansion in the city, Guo Jia had just arrived in the city today, and collapsed on the bed and slept due to overwork, after all, he was a literati. and weak. The physical strength consumed by moving back and forth was really a huge burden for him.

Guo Jia always felt that he didn't sleep very well tonight, not to mention anything else, just dreaming. It's a lot more than usual. Hazy and hazy. He seemed to always be able to see the figure of the ancestor Cao Cao, the figure was so trance-like, so unrealistic. It's so much that people want to catch it.

"Boom Boom~~~"

"Kill~~~!"

A hurried shouting and killing sound from the outside and inside, from far to near, Guo Jia in the dream suddenly woke up, he hurriedly got up, listened to the sudden rise in the distance, the earth-shattering shouting and killing, just a trance, Guo Jia immediately came back to his senses, and then he suddenly straightened up, put on his clothes, and walked out of his room quickly.

When I came to the outside of the room, I saw that in the southwest of Picheng, the firelight was raging unconsciously, and the screams and the sound of iron weapons were faintly resounding, making a deafening sound, which made people frightened to hear.

"What's going on?" Guo Jia's face was pale and he shouted loudly, but some guards hurried to Guo Jia and reported in a hurry.

"Qi Yu Guo sacrificial wine, the big thing is not good, the soldiers and horses under the banner of Dongwu smashed the road from the southwest wall and entered the city!"

When Guo Jia heard this, his face was suddenly shocked, and he said, "Smash the wall from the southwest? …… How could it be ......"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Chen Deng leading a few entourage, and ran to Guo Jia's side with a sigh of relief, wiping his sweat and gasping and saying: "Guo Sai Wine, the big thing is not good, Dongwu has entered Xiapi City!" ”

"Soochow...... Soochow ...... Before Yuan's army retreated, they turned against the water first...... Isn't Zhou Yu known as the first wise man in Jiangnan? How could such a foolish thing be done! ”

Chen Deng shook his head and said, "I don't know how to do it, Zhou Yu's move is really unwise, maybe he thinks that Dongwu is determined to win it now......"

Guo Jia hurriedly turned his head and said, "How many people did the other party enter the city?" ”

Chen Deng said: "It's too dark, I can't see it clearly for the time being, but it is the Dongwu Sailor who landed from the East China Sea!" I have already sent Zang Ba and Li Tong to lead all the main soldiers in the city to resist, you still sit in the Taishou Mansion to sacrifice wine, and see what the situation is, how about making plans again? ”

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "No, the Dongwu Sailor entered the city, this matter is too strange, Guo is not at ease, he must go and see it for himself......"

After that, Guo Jia led the guards to raise their legs and was about to leave, but saw Chen Deng hurriedly stretch out his hand to stop him.

Guo Jia was stunned, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Chen Deng puzzled.

Chen Dengzheng said: "Guo Saijiu, the enemy is prepared, well prepared, you are weak, you went to the front line in person, if something goes wrong, the consequences are unimaginable." ”

Of course, Guo Jia understands this, but where can he manage so much now, Xiapi City as his own base barrier, it is very important, once it is taken by Dongwu, it will have too much impact on his morale in Xuzhou, and it is likely to collapse.

Guo Jia patted Chen Deng's shoulder and said gratefully: "Thank you for your kindness, but now the situation is important, there is no room for mistakes, I will immediately rush to the southwest of the city now, sit in the battle and watch the battle, Yuanlong, you will immediately send people out of the city, and issue a dispatch order to our trusted henchmen and generals in the surrounding counties and counties, and Zhuo them will come to reinforce!" ”

"Good!" Chen Deng nodded, and agreed very simply, but he didn't mean to move.

Guo Jia was quite impatient, if he delayed a moment now, the battle ahead would be more variable and dangerous, how could he have time to talk to Chen Deng here.

Guo Jia hurriedly said: "Guo has taken a step first!" ”

As he spoke, he took a step across, intending to cross Chen Deng, but who thought that his movements were fast, but Chen Deng's movements were not slow, and a step back blocked his way.

This time, Guo Jia was really angry, his face sank, and he shouted: "Chen Yuanlong, you are ......"

"Guo sacrificial wine, I'll give you a ride!"

As he spoke, a cold-lit dagger suddenly fell out of Chen Deng's cuffs without warning. He aimed at Guo Jia's lower abdomen and stabbed it with all his might.

It was too fast, too sudden, and his fatal blow was beyond the expectations of everyone present, except for the henchmen who came with Chen Deng, of course.

Guo Jia was anxious because of the war, and his heart was flustered, and he unconsciously forgot to be vigilant!

Fortunately, Chen Deng is a literati, and his shots are not very tricky. Guo Jia's response was also timely. When the dagger had stabbed him in the abdomen, his waist collapsed and his body twisted to the side as hard as he could, dodging the vital point!

Just listen to the 'flutter' sound. Although Chen Deng's knife did not stab him in the lower abdomen. But it was deeply pierced in Guo Jia's left ribs.

"Ah~~~!"

Guo Jia shouted. raised his hand and pushed Chen Deng, and he also retreated, and the two of them walked towards the arms of the guards behind them.

Chen Deng is not a martial artist. It was not easy for him to succeed in assassination, and he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but took advantage of the situation to retreat.

Guo Jia retreated again and again, until he retreated into the arms of the guards behind him, he supported the guards beside him, barely stabilized his body, looked down again, and saw that the blade of the dagger had completely submerged into his body, leaving only the knife handle outside, and the blood flowed down the placket of his clothes, dripping straight down.

"Chen Yuanlong, you ...... Good work you do! Guo Jia was angry and painful. His features were distorted, and he roared loudly.

"Haha

At this moment, Chen Deng has completely lost the sluggish demeanor in front of Guo Jia on weekdays, on the contrary, he has a tall chest and a proud demeanor that is determined to win.

"Guo Fengxiao, a natural ghost, I didn't think you would have today?" Chen Deng had a mocking look on his face, looked at Guo Jia, who was bloodied in his chest, and said fiercely.

"Chen Deng, you thief, the ancestor and the prime minister have treated your Chen family well, how can you bear to rebel!"

Chen Deng suppressed his laughter and said indifferently: "The first lord treated me well, I naturally remember, it's just that good birds choose trees to perch, virtuous ministers choose masters and masters, today's Cao Cheng is not the master of the business, it is difficult to support!" Although I, Chen Deng, also know the principle that one minister does not serve the two masters, but for the sake of the Chen family's foundation to continue to be sent in my hands, and for the face of the ancestors and the future of future generations, I can only do this. ”

Guo Jia was a little surprised when he heard this, he swallowed a mouthful of spit, and said with a sneer: "Shameless thing, it's a shame that you can say it so high-soundingly!" ”

"It doesn't matter if you are crowned or not, I only know that living is the most important thing, Guo Jia, you just have too deep illusions! That's where we are today! Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Lu Bu, Sun Jian, Yuan Shu and others have long since passed, and the world has long since changed times, do you know the way? The decay of the Cao family is inevitable, you are self-sustaining, and you go against the sky, how can you have a good end? ”

Hearing this, Guo Jia's head was suddenly dizzy with anger, and the wound under his ribs was painful, but the pain of the wound was far from the pain in his heart!

Although what Chen Deng said was deliberately angry with himself, in the depths of Guo Jia's heart, he had to admit that what he said was right, the world has long changed times, Cao Cao's years of competing for the world have long passed, and the new generation of hegemons who gallop the world has been formed, and the current world is no longer the world of Cao Cao......

Thinking of this, Guo Jia's figure couldn't help but shake for a while, and he was a little unstable on his feet, and the guards behind him all reacted, stepped forward to support him together, and then pulled out the matching sword at his waist in unison, each eye breathed fire, glaring at Chen Deng, and couldn't wait to pounce on him and bite him a few times.

"Sacrificial wine, this thief is too hateful, let's slaughter him!"

Guo Jia waved his hand lightly, signaling the guards not to do it for the time being, and he said to Chen Deng: "Chen Deng, now that the Cao family is employing people, although you stabbed me, Guo can be regarded as if nothing happened, you are lost now, it is still too late, otherwise, you only have a dead end!" You defected to Soochow for the Chen family, but can Soochow sit firmly in Xuzhou? The common sense of the south ship and the north horse since ancient times, the Xuzhou Plain is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, was in Pengcheng and died! Not to mention that Soochow, where horses are scarce, can live for a long time! Once Xuzhou changes hands from Eastern Wu, Chen Deng, think about it, will he let your Chen family go? Dongwu is far away in Jiangnan and can't interfere with the Chen family, you are bringing the Chen family to the place of extermination, wake up quickly! ‘

"Hahaha!" Chen Deng smiled when he heard this, and said: "The surname Guo, Dongwu is partial to the south of the Yangtze River, and he is also worthy of being the lord of Chen?" It seems that you still don't understand me, Chen either doesn't switch to his master, and if you want to vote, you will vote for the strongest! The soldiers and horses outside the wall, wearing the armor and costumes of Dongwu, must be the soldiers and horses of Dongwu? How did you find out? Yes? ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

"Do you mean...... Is it Yuan Shang? ”
