"Sir's intelligence is astonishing."
Chen Deng understood the world situation in just a few words, which made Liu Bei quite emotional.
If Chen Deng had assisted him long ago, how could Liu Bei have fallen to this point.
"Brother Liu, thank you very much. It's my honor to be able to assist you."
Chen Deng directly started a wave of business exchanges. After all, he himself is quite modest and does not like to be in the limelight.
After bidding farewell to Liu Bei, Chen Deng returned home and met his old father Chen Gui.
When Xuzhou played with Lu Bu in the palm of his hand, his old father Chen Gui was the one who did the most. Chen Deng just followed his father's orders, worked hard, broadened his horizons, and gradually his ideas emerged, and he gained the ability he has today.
The old father, Chen Gui, was getting very old, and his vision gradually became blurred, so Chen Gui resigned from his important position and returned home to take care of himself.
I haven't been going out much recently, but the world's affairs have never been hidden from the scheming Chen Gui.
"Deng'er, I feel a little uneasy as a father."
Chen Gui looked at Chen Deng with those turbid beads and said solemnly.
"Why is father upset?"
Chen Deng asked in confusion. The situation was now very good, and he had a better chance of taking over Xiapi State and Jiujiang County in one fell swoop. Chen Deng did not see any crisis.
"Lu Bu's sudden rise makes my father feel uneasy."
Chen Gui sighed.
"Lu Bu is just a man. He has a dirty and smelly reputation. No matter where he is, he can't sit on the throne with peace of mind. I wonder why my father is worried about this man?"
Chen Deng did not take Lu Bu too seriously. Although the siege of Xiapi City failed for a while, in the final analysis, Chen Deng only thought that Cao Cao was surrounded by enemies on all sides and did not attack Lu Bu with all his strength.
If Cao Cao used all his strength to attack Lu Bu, then there would still be clowns like Lu Bu.
"You are the one who is worried about my father. You underestimate the enemy too much. Haven't you found any clues from Lu Bu's deeds?"
Chen Gui said in a deep voice.
After living at home, Chen Gui began to form an intelligence organization, preparing to be responsible for collecting intelligence from various princes in Xuzhou.
After all, the Chen family in Xuzhou only had so much financial resources, and it was impossible to form an intelligence organization that could spread all over the world.
Moreover, the Chen family has no intention of hegemony, and forming an intelligence organization is just to survive in troubled times.
After all, the world is turbulent, and without intelligence support, it would be a blind move, and a single move could lead to the entire Chen family being slaughtered.
In the process of collecting intelligence, the one who interested Chen Gui the most was Lu Bu!
Before, Chen Gui really didn't take Lü Bu seriously, so he used a random trick to make Lü Bu betray his relatives and die trapped in Xiapi City.
How could Chen Gui take such a common man into his heart?
But since he was trapped in Xiapi City, everything began to change quietly, especially Lu Bu's changes too much, which even made Chen Gui wonder if Lu Bu had been replaced and someone else was in charge of Xiapi City.
The main reason is that Lu Bu is too uncharacteristic. First of all, he trusts his subordinates and is no longer overly suspicious. This reveals extremely weirdness.
You must know that Lu Bu was extremely easy to provoke before. It was precisely because of this that Chen Gui gradually divided the relationship between Lu Bu and Chen Gong and the other generals, making Lu Bu a real loner and could only trust the Chen family and his son.
At this time, the Chen family's father and son's plan had been very successful. They then contacted Cao Cao, obtained a lot of benefits from Cao Cao, and then borrowed troops to destroy Lu Bu. Why not do it.
In fact, the Chen family and his son were only one step away from success. Unfortunately, they were defeated directly in the face of Lu Bu, who was strengthened in all aspects.
If Lu Bu had just changed his ways and chosen to trust his subordinates, Chen Gui would not have suspected that there was someone else in Xiapi City.
Mainly because Chen Gui discovered that Lu Bu had become smarter, and some of his strategies were obviously not thought up by a slow-witted person like Chen Gong. Either they were thought up by Lu Bu himself, or there were experts behind Lu Bu!
If Lu Bu came up with it himself, then Lu Bu's threat would be greatly increased. A brave and strategic monarch would not be so easy to deal with.
Moreover, Lu Bu's strength has been greatly improved, and he has directly regained his second youth. There are various signs that Lu Bu may no longer be Lu Bu, and there is someone else sitting in Xiapi City!
However, Chen Gui was only suspicious, but Lu Bu's rise was already unstoppable, and he even managed to subdue Zhang Liao. Sitting on the land of two counties, he could be said to be eyeing Xuzhou!
But Deng'er still looked at Lu Bu with the same eyes as before, which made Chen Gui not worried. Underestimating the enemy was the biggest taboo.
"Lu Bu may have help from experts, but so what, an ordinary man is an ordinary man, and he can still make a huge difference!"
Chen Deng said casually.
"idiot!"
Chen Gui couldn't help but cursed loudly. He was just becoming the governor of Guangling County, and he was already so complacent. He didn't know the heights of the world, and he might not know how he would die in the future.
Chen Deng was stunned for a while after being scolded. This was the first time that Chen Gui scolded him in so many years, which greatly damaged his self-esteem.
"Then Lu Bu is no longer the Lu Bu he was before. Whether it's because he has an expert behind him or whether he suddenly wakes up, Deng'er, you definitely can't look at Lu Bu the way you did before!"
"With the hatred between Lu Bu and the Chen family, if you dare to underestimate the enemy even once, then the whole Chen family will probably be buried with them."
Chen Gui said coldly.
"Father, it's not that serious."
Chen Deng's voice was very low, and he was no longer as confident as before.
Looking back now, this plan did underestimate Lu Bu. If it were Lu Bu before, maybe there was nothing missing in the plan.
But it was hard to say that Lu Bu now had a good idea of his own plan and could use it to his advantage. Thinking of this, Chen Deng shuddered.
It is unimaginable what kind of catastrophe the Chen family will face when Guangling County's troops and horses are exhausted.
With Lu Bu's murderous intention, it was impossible to let go of the Chen family in Guangling.
"As a father, I don't listen to your voice as much as before. Maybe I already understand in my heart."
"A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength, let alone a vicious tiger. I hope Den'er will know."
Chen Gui smiled.
"The child knows."
Chen Deng completely understood what his father meant. This strategy was too contemptuous of Lu Bu. The troops were divided into two groups, and it was very likely that Lu Bu would defeat them one by one.
After all, Guangling County also needs soldiers and horses to guard it, so we will unite our troops and attack the Pi Kingdom to see how Lu Bu will face it.
When the time comes, Chen Deng will send lobbyists to persuade the generals in Jiujiang County to stop Lu Bu's offensive. In addition, Shouchun City is such a strong city, Yuan Shu should be able to hold on.
When Yuan Shu is about to lose his hold, the news that Pi State is being attacked will definitely reach Lu Bu, putting Lu Bu in a dilemma.
At this time, Liu Bei sent another surprise force to negotiate with Yuan Shu, persuade Yuan Shu to surrender, and guard Shouchun City with the surprise force.
Seeing that the situation is over, Lu Bu will definitely not continue to entangle, and will definitely lead his troops to return for reinforcements. When the situation reaches this point, the situation in Jiujiang County will come to an end, and the curtain will end with Liu Bei's capture of Jiujiang County.
The next step is to consider how to deal with this Lu Bu army that is returning to defend. As long as Lu Bu's army is firmly trapped or even annihilated, Xiapi Kingdom will be at your fingertips.
In this way, Liu Bei can sit on the land of three counties and be strong!
