Chen Deng's eyes were horrified, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.
Should we kill Mi Zhu or not?
By killing Mi Zhu, Lu Xuan was offended to death. Once Lu Xuan enters Xuzhou, the Chen family will definitely be destroyed. The key is that no other big clan will respond to Lu Xuan's killing, and other big clans will not feel the sadness of a rabbit dying and a fox dying.
Because it was you, Chen Deng, who insisted on killing Mi Zhu.
It was you, Chen Deng, who did the job.
Lu Xuan's revenge is natural, so the consequences for the Chen family must be tragic.
If Mi Zhu is not killed, Chen Deng will lose his prestige in front of the two armies and lose the opportunity to suppress Lu Xuan.
Chen Deng felt more nervous than ever before, and even felt his scalp numb. He never thought that just a conversation would put Lu Xuan into a dilemma. He was unable to move forward or retreat and could not cope with it.
Chen Deng took a deep breath, calmed down his irritable mood, and said, "Lu Xuan, your words cannot threaten me. Considering the friendship between Shijun and Mi Zhu, I will not kill Mi Zhu for the time being and leave him alive."
Lu Xuan had a smile on his face.
Chen Deng was afraid.
Chen Deng is talented and ruthless, but he has a weakness. The entire Chen family is in Xuzhou, so it is impossible for him to accomplish everything.
Otherwise, what if Lu Xuan captures Xuzhou?
Lu Xuan took advantage of the situation and said in a deep voice: "I heard that Xuzhou's one dragon is you, Chen Yuanlong. You are talented and capable. Let alone being in charge of a county, you will have no problem even if you serve as the governor of a state."
"Liu Bei wants strength but not strength, he wants talent but not talent. Liu Bei in Xuzhou is a source without water and a root without roots."
"Following him is the worst choice."
"This is a hidden secret."
Lu Xuan talked eloquently, and he adopted the strategy of alienation and said directly: "If you, Chen Deng, are willing to serve me, I will go to the court and recommend you to be the governor of Xuzhou and govern Xuzhou for me. What do you think?"
Chen Deng raised his eyebrows.
Looked surprised.
He had previously made a plan to drive a wedge between Lu Xuan and Mi Zhu. Unexpectedly, what Lu Xuan and Liu Bei said made Liu Bei confused and unable to deal with it. He threatened Lu Xuan, but was threatened by Lu Xuan instead.
Now, it was Lu Xuan who came to win over him, and Lu Xuan gave him more.
Chen Deng hesitated in his heart, but without any hesitation, he said: "Lu Xuan, your inducement has no meaning at all. The foundation of my life, Chen Deng, is loyalty. I work for Xuande Gong, where righteousness lies." .”
Lu Xuan sneered and said: "Yuanlong used to call Liu Bei the envoy, but now he calls Xuande Gong. It can be seen that Yuanlong has not been loyal to his master so far. How can there be any loyalty? A good bird chooses a tree to roost on. , A wise minister chooses his master, and if Yuan Long doesn’t think about himself, doesn’t he think about the Chen family?”
Chen Deng said confidently: "Serving Xuande Gong is the best choice for the Chen family."
"No, that's the worst option."
Lu Xuan continued to confuse him and said: "Liu Bei has only superficial appearance, and it is difficult for him to gain a foothold. Yuan Long works for Liu Bei, and seems to be highly regarded, but in fact he is a rootless person, and it is difficult for him to gain a foothold."
"Yuanlong resisted desperately. When I destroyed Xuzhou, the Chen family lost their biggest profit opportunity."
"Now that Yuan Long has surrendered, the Chen family can be protected and receive sufficient benefits."
"This is the perfect time."
Lu Xuan tempted Chen Deng and said confidently: "So, why should Yuanlong resist? It doesn't make any sense."
Chen Deng flicked his sleeves and said, "It's just enough to deceive a three-year-old child with such words. It's impossible to use such words to deceive me. I, Chen Deng, uphold loyalty and stand up for loyalty. It's impossible." surrender."
Chen Deng is a smart man.
After hearing Lu Xuan's words, he hesitated a little, but there was no way he would surrender before the battle.
When Chen Deng finished speaking, Liu Bei and Guan Yu came again.
Liu Bei looked anxious. He did not expect that Lu Xuan's words would alienate him and Chen Deng. This is absolutely not allowed. Liu Bei's expression showed no doubt and he decisively ordered: "Let go of Mi Zhu and let him leave."
Chen Deng looked over and frowned.
Liu Bei looked sincere and said firmly: "If it is Yuan Long who is detained, I will release him. Whether it is Mi Zhu or Yuan Long, I will treat you the same. I, Liu Bei, treat each other sincerely and trust you It’s a big deal and there are absolutely no other thoughts.”
Lu Xuan also heard these words.
He secretly thought that Liu Bei was great, and he was worthy of being a man who could endure adversity for more than twenty years and finally rise.
Lu Xuan's words were to drive a wedge between Liu Bei and Chen Deng. Unexpectedly, when Liu Bei saw something was wrong, he quickly came up and even beat him with his words, which weakened Lu Xuan's win over Chen Deng and also reassured Chen Deng.
Chen Deng bowed slightly and said solemnly: "Please rest assured, I will fight to the death with Lu Xuan."
At this moment, Chen Deng regained his senses.
Even if he wants to submit to Lu Xuan, he is not rebelling on the battlefield. Such an approach will only disgrace the Chen family and cause the Chen family to lose its foundation. Even if he wanted to surrender, he would be loyal to Liu Bei. After resisting desperately, he could no longer resist and surrendered again.
This is the foundation of one's life.
Who doesn’t like a loyal person?
You are rebellious, so even if someone uses you, they will be on guard.
Liu Bei nodded and felt relieved. He looked at Mi Zhu and said, "Zizhong, please. This time, I can't help you."
Mi Zhu still didn't speak, bowed to Liu Bei, and strode away. He came to Lu Xuan's side and said: "My lord, I was careless in my actions and became a prisoner. My lord has troubled me."
Lu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "It'll be great if my brother comes back. Thank you for your hard work."
Mi Zhu shook his head,
In my heart, I felt completely at ease.
Lu Xuan looked at Liu Bei, Chen Deng and Guan Yu again and said loudly: "Liu Bei, you brought people outside my camp. Are you just using Mi Zhu to deal with me?"
Chen Deng turned his eyes and took over the words: "Lu Xuan, Shijun Renyi has never taken advantage of Mi Zhu's thoughts. This war is about your army raising troops to invade Xuzhou. Therefore, Shijun must destroy you. Lu Xuan, do you dare to fight with us?"
Lu Xuan blinked.
He knew about the battle between generals, but how could the battle formation come about? In other words, Chen Deng has some conspiracy in his mind. Everything Chen Deng does is based on the extension of interests, and must be an arrangement made in order to win.
Lu Xuan remained calm and asked, "How will Yuan Long fight?"
Chen Deng said: "You and I each send out a team of cavalry with a thousand people. The cavalry on both sides fight and compete. Do you dare? Or, you can even join the cavalry with a thousand people." Not coming out?"
He regained his confidence again.
Lu Xuan was a herdsman in Yangzhou, and his jurisdiction was located in Yangzhou. There were no pastures and a lack of cavalry.
Although Lu Xuan has a small number of cavalry, Lu Xuan's cavalry team is definitely not systematic and does not have sufficient combat effectiveness. Even before, Zhou Yu defeated Zuo Rong, captured Zuo Rong's horses, and formed a cavalry force. However, without a cavalry general who actually charged into battle, Lu Xuan's horses could not display their combat effectiveness.
Liu Bei's side is different.
Liu Bei and Guan Yu are here.
In addition, Liu Bei himself has a fine cavalry.
Once Lu Xuan agrees to fight, this battle can defeat Lu Xuan and weaken Lu Xuan's morale. Going further, you can even attack Lu Xuan's camp. Chen Deng knew that the two armies were facing each other and there were few ways to compete with the cavalry.
But what if it happens?
There was a faint smile on Lu Xuan's lips, and a trace of ridicule flashed in his eyes. Chen Deng was really whimsical to come up with such a method.
This was because Yangzhou had no cavalry to bully him.
Unfortunately, Chen Deng was destined to fail. Lu Xuan not only had Lu Bu's cavalry under Zhang Liao's command, but also had tiger generals like Huang Zhong who could rival Guan Yu. Huang Zhong at this stage is not the old age when Huang Zhong and Guan Yu clashed in history.
Today's Huang Zhong is at his peak in all aspects. He is powerful and can definitely defeat Guan Yu.
