Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Imperial decree, Chen Gui knew that this should be the price Da Jin offered him.

Chen Gui opened it and took a look. The other party didn't skimp on the cost. Xuzhou didn't drive. The price offered by Dajin was not cheap.

Xuzhou Biejia's position is already the second-in-command in the state!

The most important thing is Xuzhou's second-in-command. This is the most valuable guarantee, and it even has to be above others!

For the entire Chen family, the second-in-command in other states is naturally incomparable with the second-in-command in Xuzhou.

The Chen family is within Xuzhou and has become the second-in-command in Xuzhou. The Chen family is the easiest to develop and grow. Although being a high-ranking official in other states is helpful to the development of the Chen family, being the second-in-command in Xuzhou is definitely not as helpful as being the second-in-command in Xuzhou.

And for a family, the importance of development is self-evident! Especially for the head of a family, it is the top priority for them.

Although Chen Gui has always been scheming, when he saw this imperial edict, his breathing still became rapid.

Especially with the self-destruction of Dou Jiande's forces and such a powerful backstab against Zhao Kuangyin at this time, the outcome of the Central Plains War cannot be said to be 100%. After all, there is no absolute 100% in this world. But at least [-]% of the opinions say that the overall situation has been decided.

As an important force under Zhao Kuangyin, the old Chen family will not be exterminated because of this, but it is inevitable that they will be suppressed in the new dynasty. I am afraid that they may have to decline, and the best outcome will be Been low-key for generations.

But as long as he accepts this imperial edict, it will be a completely different future. The old Chen family can even turn disaster into blessing and take this opportunity to grow and develop.

The contrast between the one before and after was too strong, even this old fox couldn't withstand such stimulation.

However, the old fox is still an old fox, and after a brief excitement, he still calmed down.

"Mr. Su Qin, although your army is at its peak in Xuzhou, what will happen to the Qingzhou Army if I hold you in my hands?" As Chen Gui spoke, there seemed to be a fierce murderous intent.

What Chen Gui said makes sense. Xuzhou is empty. Di Qing's army definitely has the ability to capture Xuzhou in a short time.

So what if Zhao Kuangyin sent troops back to help, not to mention how far the situation in Xuzhou had developed by then after he sent troops back!
Just these soldiers and horses can come back if they want to? Furthermore, Di Qing had an army of 12, so how many troops should Zhao Kuangyin bring back?

The reinforcements had to be withdrawn just after they were pressed up. Moreover, there was a problem in the rear and they were withdrawn when their morale was declining. Doesn't this mean that the front line was directly given to the Jin army?

But Su Qin's appearance here has given Xuzhou a variable. As one of the two actual leaders of the Qingzhou Army, even these two leaders are vaguely dominated by Su Qin. With him in their hands, the Qingzhou Army will definitely If you know how to use a rat weapon, variables will inevitably arise.

"What Mr. Han Yu said is reasonable, but there is no need for Mr. Han Yu to take action. General Shi, if Mr. Han Yu wants to do harm to me, I hope that the general will prove my loyalty!"

"I'm afraid of pain, and I hope the general will strike more quickly!" Su Qin seemed to be joking. However, Shi Wengong, as a guard, was frightened by Su Qin's joke.

"Ruthless enough!" Chen Gui sighed in his heart. Su Qin's words seemed to be a joke, but they forced the Chen family to a dead end.

Su Qin had almost told Chen Gui openly that he could indeed attack him, but what he would get would not be a living him, but a dead him. And if what you get is a dead person, it will naturally not have the original effect.

On the contrary, if Su Qin died, the Chen family would be forced to a dead end.

Although the identity of a spy is not easy to hear, and he has always been regarded as a rat in the gutter in the dark, it is undeniable that even if Su Qin is a secret agent, his contribution this time is too great.

If he died because of the Chen family, think about the fate of the Chen family after the Central Plains War!

As for the Central Plains War, Zhao Kuangyin's winning rate, as mentioned before, is less than [-]%. Does the Chen family dare to bet on this [-]% chance? If you lose the bet, your entire family will be wiped out!
As the head of a family, this is their first priority.

This is why Su Qin did not visit Chen Deng, who was working as the governor of Guangling County, but came to Xiapi to visit Chen Gui, who was already unemployed.

Seeing Su Qin's rogue attitude of "I'll die if you don't agree", Chen Gui knew that this old boy didn't give him any other choice from the beginning!

Alas, did he agree or not?

Of course I agreed!
You can't really take your whole family to death!
Compared with loyalty, for a large family, the survival and development of the family seem to be more important.

Not to mention, although his son became an official under Zhao Kuangyin, and many members of his old Chen family also became officials and generals under Zhao Kuangyin, Chen Gui and Chen Hanyu have been idle for many years, not Zhao Kuangyin. The officials under him never called Zhao Kuangyin "lord".

Since there has never been a vassal relationship, there is no such thing as loyalty, let alone betrayal!
Therefore, this choice makes Chen Gui feel at ease!

Just like Liu Bei, he seems to have served under several princes, but his status has always been that of a guest general, and he has never worshiped any prince as his master. Even if he left, there was no betrayal. statement.

It’s not like you have to sell your life to someone else when you get to a company where you haven’t signed a labor contract, right?
Chen Gui is even worse. I have never recognized you as my master. Just because I live under your control, I can't just assume that I am your minister. That's not how you deal with porcelain!

Therefore, Chen Gui accepted the imperial edict with peace of mind. Of course, he also felt at ease with himself and helped his son decide his future destiny.

One of the most important reasons for Su Qin to win over the Chen family was that he needed these big local families to help him stabilize Xuzhou. For the base camp that Zhao Kuangyin has been running for many years, these aristocratic families must help stabilize their hearts in the next short period of time.

The next step was to better capture Guangling County in the south, and the main task fell on Chen Deng. Even the person who was given the position of Xuzhou Bijia was also Chen Deng.

This position can only be given to Chen Deng. It is valuable to the Chen family. Chen Gui is now quite old. How many years does he have left to live?
