Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 145
Xuzhou, Guangling.

Looking at the official document in his hand, Chen Deng remained silent.

"Your Majesty, people from Jiangdong are here." A general came in and saluted Chen Deng.

"Please!" Chen Deng nodded. The cooperation with Jiang Dong has been reached. After this incident, if the Chen family can survive, they will have to work for Jiang Dong. Therefore, uniting Jiangdong against Lu Bu is the only way out for the Chen family.

In fact, since Cao Cao sent troops to Yuan Shu, Chen Deng had already predicted what would happen today.

After a while, Zhou Yu and his party came in, but the leader was not Zhou Yu, but a handsome young man. Different from Zhou Yu's elegance, this man was full of domineering, and his brows gave off an aggressive aura. Lu Bu's style is somewhat similar.

"Yuanlong, you and I have fought against each other twice, but this is the first time we have met." The young man smiled heartily at Chen Deng.

"I've seen General Sun!" Chen Deng clasped his hands together and saluted, then turned sideways to welcome the group of people in.

This time, it wasn't just Sun Ce and Zhou Yu who came. Behind them, there were four other generals, some old and some young, but each of them exuded a powerful aura.

"This is an official document from Lu Bu. Let's take a look, General Sun." Chen Deng handed the official document he had just received to the two of them.

Sun Ce took it without looking at it, but passed it to Zhou Yu, looked at Chen Deng and said, "But Lu Bu is coming to attack?"

"It's not a gauntlet." Chen Deng shook his head, nominally speaking, he was under the control of Lu Bu, and it was Lu Bu's brain that made him a gauntlet.

"It is to use Guangling to attack Yuan Shu from the flank." Zhou Yu glanced at the official document, put it down, shook his head and said, "This is a false plan to attack Guo, but Lu Bu probably didn't intend to hide Yuan Long's intentions. The plan seems to be a false plan to attack Guo, but it is actually different from a false attack. If Yuanlong blocks it, he can directly attack Guangling. If he does not block it, Lu Bu can go straight into Guangling. Strategies are far superior to counterfeiting, no matter how Yuanlong chooses, he will never escape his tricks."

Chen Deng nodded helplessly. Although he didn't want to admit it, the current Lu Bu uses one method after another, and he doesn't hit you directly every time, but wants to hit you without falling into the mouth. In the eyes of outsiders, he is upright, even if he is upset, there is no point to criticize him.

A Lu Bu who can use his brain is a bit scary!

It's hard to be an enemy.

"This plan is morally disadvantaged for Yuanlong." Sun Ce said with a smile: "However, it is not impossible."

Chen Deng raised his head and looked at Sun Ce.

Sun Ce said with a smile: "Before I have submitted to the imperial court, please assign Guangling to Yangzhou and bring it under Yangzhou's rule. If Yuanlong agrees, they can deny Lü Bu entry on the grounds that they do not belong to each other. Although Lü Bu will never stop fighting because of this, But morally, it's very different."

Before Lu Bu entered Guangling, it was an internal matter in Xuzhou, but if Guangling was assigned to Jiangdong, it would mean that Lu Bu used troops against Jiangdong for no reason, and it was natural for Sun Ce to send troops.

As for whether Cao Cao would agree, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were not worried. Just like Lu Bu chose to conquer Guangling at this point, Cao Cao had nothing to do with Lu Bu, and Sun Ce chose to swallow Guangling at this point. Cao Cao also had to accept it, otherwise he would just have to Can watch Guangling being annexed by Lu Bu.

But if Guangling is allocated to Jiangdong, it will be a dispute between Jiangdong and Lu Bu, which is good for Cao Cao.

Use the plan to follow the trend, the more winners, the better the effect of the plan. If only you benefit, no matter how sophisticated the plan is, it is useless. This is why Sun Ce and Zhou Yu chose to intervene in Xuzhou at this time. If they succeed, they can enter Xuzhou. Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shu in this battle. Sun Ce, with the power of Xu and Yang, is not afraid of Cao Cao.

Of course, whether it can be done depends on whether Lu Bu can be defeated.

Chen Deng knew he had no choice. Lu Bu was not Sun Ce. He had roots in Xuzhou. He could defeat Sun Ce twice, but Chen Deng had no confidence in defeating Lu Bu. It was easy to defend at those few points where they landed, but if Lu Bu wanted to attack Guangling, it was much easier than Jiangdong.

"If that's the case, I'll leave it to the general." Chen Deng bowed to Sun Ce, and ordered someone to take out his prefect seal and present it to Sun Ce. As for the recognition of the master, it will have to wait until after this battle.

Sun Ce looked at the official seal and said with a smile: "The prefect of Guangling is still Yuanlong. Yuanlong has been in Guangling for a long time, and Guangling is also quite prosperous under Yuanlong's rule. If I force Yuanlong to follow me back to Jiangdong, the people of Guangling may They will not agree, and Ce thinks that after this battle, the government will be moved to Xiapi, and with Guangling by his side, Ce can feel much more at ease."

Chen Deng waved his hand and asked people to take back the seal of the prefect. He saluted Sun Ce again, but in his heart he agreed with Sun Ce a little more.

Moving the government office to Xiapi means that Sun Ce is not satisfied with a corner of peace and is willing to voluntarily abandon the natural moat of the river and come to Xiapi out of a stable environment. It also means that Sun Ce's goal is to become king in the Central Plains instead of shrinking in Jiangdong.

It's just that Sun Ce's attitude towards the gentry still made Chen Deng a little concerned. Sun Ce's attitude towards the Jiangdong gentry was similar to that of Lu Bu. If he refused to accept it, he would fight, but he was always reasonable. Now that things have happened, Chen Deng can't help but choose.

"I don't know how the general plans to fight Lu Bu?" Chen Deng sat down on his knees again and looked at Sun Ce.

Sun Ce smiled and looked at Zhou Yu.

"There should be a map of Guangling here!" Zhou Yu stretched out his hand, and a map appeared in front of him. He pointed to the map and said, "Lü Bu is good at cavalry. If we fight in the wild, our army may not be able to defeat Lu Bu, and if we really fight like this, we will hit the target." Lu Bu is in his arms."

Chen Deng nodded and said, "But if you refuse to defend the city, I'm afraid Lu Bu will take advantage of the situation and seize the city."

"Our army is good at water warfare!" Zhou Yu stretched out his hand, and the lines representing the rivers on the map became clear: "This land of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River is full of waterways. , cut off his food path, retreat!"

The blue light on the line representing Huai Shui lights up.

"So, Ling County and other places north of the Huai River need to be abandoned?" Chen Deng asked while looking at the map.

"Only in this way can we have a chance of winning." Zhou Yu nodded, giving up a few counties in exchange for cutting off Lv Bu's grain roads, this deal is a good deal.

"Excuse me..." Chen Deng hesitated for a moment, looked at Zhou Yu and said, "What if Lu Bu knows that you and I are joining forces? I'm afraid it will be difficult to hide from Lu Bu's eyes and ears about our secret alliance."

In the past, Lu Bu was not afraid, but after Chu Nan joined Lu Bu's command, Lu Bu's style changed. This kid is best at doing things in secret. It is not easy.

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "I have thought about this before, so I decided to give up the north of the Huai River. Lu Bu knows that our army has entered the Jianghuai River. What can he do? It would be best if he gave up attacking Guangling. He must try to cross the Huai River, even if he knows that the Huai River is dangerous, he has to cross it!"

This is just like Lv Bu's official document making Chen Deng in a dilemma. Whether or not he can cross the Huai River is also a dilemma for Lv Bu.

Of course, as far as Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were concerned, they hoped that Lu Bu would cross the Huai River. In this way, what they got was not only Guangling, but the whole Xuzhou, which had the capital to compete with Cao Cao for the Central Plains.

Chen Deng took a deep look at Zhou Yu. Jiang Dong seemed determined to win Xuzhou this time. He nodded and said, "However, everyone has heard of Lu Bu's bravery. Even if he is trapped in Huainan, it is not easy to take him down."

Sun Ce's eyes were eager to try: "It's so good, this general also wants to see how Lu Bu can dare to be the number one in the world!"

Chen Deng was a little speechless when he heard the words. There were many people who refused to accept this title, but only a few survived. Those who survived have become famous, and those who died may not be really weak. After thinking about it, he persuaded: "General, the two When the army is at war, it is best not to show personal bravery."

Zhou Yu also nodded and said, "My lord, don't mess around."

Well, this is the attitude of the subordinates when talking to the lord! ?
Chen Deng was stunned.

But what surprised him was that Sun Ce stopped talking!
This gave Chen Deng a new understanding of the friendship between Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. These two people are not pure monarchs and ministers.

"I heard that both Yuanlong and Lord Han Yu are good at the five elements?" Zhou Yu looked at Chen Deng with a smile and said.

"I understand." Chen Deng retracted his thoughts and nodded modestly.

"Since that's the case, we can use this power to change the situation in a place, attract Lu Bu, and gather heavy troops to attack!" Zhou Yu clicked on the map, looked at Chen Deng and said, "In other words, we can borrow the help of Brother Yuanlong and his son to attack him!" Build a city, trap Lu Bu in this city, brother Yuanlong has many Confucianists, gather gravity to trap Lu Bu in the city, and then destroy it with water and fire!"

Chen Deng nodded. This is the way he came up with. Most of his subordinates in Xuzhou with supernatural powers are there, plus a group of Confucianists who can speak their minds. Let's talk about killing Lu Bu at once, but it is still possible to grind Lu Bu to death slowly.

"I also have the same intention! It's a pity that there are not enough people. If you help me, this plan will come true!" Chen Deng looked at Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, and the feeling of oppression caused by Lu Bu was swept away in his heart.

No matter what happens after this battle, with the help of Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and Jiangdong generals, Lu Bu will not be so scary.

"Since that's the case, please let Yuanlong let go of all the defenses and let our army enter Guangling!" Zhou Yu smiled and looked at Chen Dengdao.

Chen Deng knew that it was easy to let Jiangdong troops in, but it was difficult to invite them out. But now that he had decided to be under Sun Ce's command, he naturally didn't need to worry about these anymore. He nodded immediately and said, "I will order Withdraw the defenses along the river bank, and ask the general to persuade the soldiers not to disturb the people."

"Yuanlong, don't worry, our army has strict discipline."
