In the end, Lu Bu agreed with Qin Li's decision, and ordered Qin Li to send an order to Gao Shun, lead the camp to intercept Yuan Shu, send Yuan Shu's head to Xuchang, and at the same time send the jade seal of the country to Yecheng.

"Do you think the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will be won?" After seeing Qin Li leave, Lu Bu looked at Chen Deng, which he knew himself.

"Well, don't talk about everything, but Yuan Shao has the wisdom to know people but has no ability to use people, just this is enough to make him defeated." Chen Deng nodded and said: "This Mr. Qin's words are quite insightful, although Xuzhou is recuperating now, Deng thinks that the lord still needs to make arrangements as soon as possible." ”

"You mean......" Lu Bu thought of what Qin Li said before, and frowned on what he said about taking Xuchang.

"Not bad!" Chen Deng nodded affirmatively and said: "Xuzhou was originally a rich land, with a large population and abundant grain and grass, but after Cao Cao's several expeditions, most of the people of Xuzhou took refuge in other places, which is no longer enough to become a foundation place, and if the lord wants to succeed, there are only two ways to go." ”

"Oh?" Lu Bu looked at Chen Deng and motioned for him to continue.

"First, take advantage of Cao Cao's decisive battle with Yuan Shao, cross the river to attack Sun Ce, and occupy the land of Jiangdong, the land of Jiangdong has the Yangtze River moat, which can be called the rear of the lord, he is invincible to Cao Cao in the day, and can also be used as a retreat, defend according to the danger, be invincible, and then wait for the opportunity to plot the land of Jingxiang, based on this, and enter Bashu in the west, then Cao Cao may have exhausted the land of the Central Plains, which is the time when the lord and Cao Cao compete for power in the north and south." Chen Deng smiled.

Xuzhou, Jiangdong, Jingzhou plus a Shuzhong ......

"What about the other one?" Lu Bu looked at Chen Deng.

"As Mr. Qin Li said before, when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's soldiers are tired, take the elite and take Xuchang, and serve the Son of Heaven to order the princes to occupy the Central Plains, and then sweep the north, take Yongliang in the west, and finally wave the army to the south, with the momentum of sweeping the north, and dominate the world!" Chen Deng looked at Lu Budao: "It's just that if this is the case, the danger is even more victorious, whether it is Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, it is definitely not a battle, with the current strength of the lord, once it fails, I am afraid that Xuzhou will not be guaranteed!" ”

Now although Lu Bu is nominally the lord of Xuzhou, but Lang Xie is not in the hands of Lu Bu, with the land of the four counties, to fight Cao Cao's two states, regardless of the strength and manpower, Lu Bu is not a little different from Cao Cao now, not to mention that there are Sun Ce and Liu Bei on the side, it is not easy for Lu Bu to succeed.

When Lu Bu heard this, he fell into silence, what Chen Deng said was somewhat similar to Zhuge Liang's Longzhong pair later, but it was different, but if he could really occupy Bashu and Jiangdong, with the natural danger of the two places, he remembered that in his previous life, Cao's army attacked Jiangdong more than once in vain, and as for what happened after Liu Bei's death, Lu Bu didn't know.

Chen Deng didn't speak again, sometimes, no matter how good the strategist's strategy is, it also needs the monarch's decision, otherwise it will be a bunch of nonsense, what he has to do now is to put the two paths in front of Lu Bu, as for how to choose, that is Lu Bu's business.

The reversal of the Battle of Xuzhou is definitely a good thing for Lu Bu, not only to reverse his destiny, but also to the crazy slaughter and the fact that he began to show favor to the Shi clan at the suggestion of Chen Deng, so that Lu Bu now has the support of the Xuzhou Shi clan behind him, and compared with other princes, although these support forces behind Lu Bu are few, they are more determined, and now Lu Bu has the qualifications to win the world.

As for the future achievements, it depends on how Lu Bu chooses.

"There are many mountains in Shu, and there are many rivers in Jiangdong, which is not conducive to the galloping of cavalry, since this is the case, choose the second one!" Lu Bu didn't think much time, and soon made a decision.

Chen Deng was stunned for a while when he heard this, although he also thought that the second one was the best, although it was risky, but once it succeeded, even if Cao Cao could not be destroyed immediately, but this game of chess in the world would be revitalized, but Lu Bu's reason was really ...... I don't dare to compliment, but think about it, Lu Bu and his main generals are mostly from the north, and they are not good at the terrain of the south or Shuzhong, once the target is put into Jiangdong, it will take a long adaptation process for Lu Bu.

From this point of view, Lu Bu's choice does have sufficient reasons.

"Then next, is it to secretly accumulate strength and wait for the times to change?" Lu Bu looked at Chen Deng and asked.

"No, first of all, you need to put Cao Cao at ease!" Chen Deng shook his head and said: "Cao Cao is now bound to be jealous of the lord, if the lord is dormant at this time, Cao Cao will fight a decisive battle with Yuan Shao, and he will inevitably deploy a large number of soldiers and horses in Xiao County to prevent the lord." ”

"How do you reassure them?" Lu Bu nodded.

"The lord knows that although Cao Cao ordered me to be the Taishou of Guangling, he did not grant me the seal of Guangling Taishou?" Chen Deng didn't answer, but looked at Lu Bu and smiled.

When Lu Bu heard this, he frowned and looked at Chen Deng, these two things are related?

"If my expectations are correct, Cao Cao will definitely send the official seal of Guangling Taishou to Jiangdong or hand it over to Liu Bei, so that the lord will compete with Liu Bei and Sun Ce and have no time to look west!" Chen Deng said helplessly.

"Liu Bei's foothold in Runan is not stable, so there is no need to be afraid, this official seal is more likely to fall into the hands of that Sun Ce, so I am afraid that it will not take long for Sun Ce to attack." Chen Deng smiled.

"If that's the case, if I fight with Sun Ce, how can I still attack Xuchang?" Lu Bu frowned.

"Sun Ce is not only brave and good at fighting, but also more decisive, Jiangdong has this person, then forge ahead, but if the lord can kill this person, then Jiangdong is afraid of internal chaos, Jiangdong disaster will be solved, then you can directly wave troops from Huaiyin and attack Xuchang!" Chen Deng said with a smile.

"He is the lord of Jiangdong, how can he be so easy to kill?" Hearing this, Lu Bu frowned.

"Sun Ce is brave and unprepared, and there are still ghost guards in the hands of the lord, if others want to kill him, they may need to turn their minds, but it is easy for the lord to kill this person." Chen Deng smiled and pointed at himself: "Don't forget how Deng was captured and killed by the lord in the first place. ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he didn't feel embarrassed, and nodded in a deep voice: "So, I should be a soldier in Huaiyin?" ”

"Exactly!" Chen Deng nodded: "As long as Sun Ce is killed, one general can be left to guard Guangling, but this ability to run for thousands of miles, except for the lord, the minister can't think of others, but he doesn't know ......."

Under Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun are all generals, but if you talk about the mastery of cavalry tactics and combat experience, I am afraid that no one can be more suitable than Lu Bu in the world.

"Well, this battle, I should go to it in person!" Lu Bu nodded silently and said, "You can let the ghost guard go to Xuchang first, and after I kill Sun Ce, I will directly attack Xuchang." ”

It is thousands of miles away from Huaiyin to Xuchang, and if you select elite people to march in a hurry, Lu Bu is confident that he will arrive within six days!
