Han Xiang

Chapter 381

"Yun Qi and I have the grace of life, aren't we already friends? And friends should help each other."

Chen Deng is a typical big family thinking, he would rather give money than owe favors.

Especially in the present troubled times, Long Xiang is caught between Cao Cao and Sun Quan, the Chen family is very difficult to repay this favor.

Long Xiang saw that Chen Deng's words were impeccable, so he wrote lightly:
"I already know Yuanlong's intentions, but Hefei is still self-sufficient. When I encounter difficulties in the future, it will not be too late to ask you for help."

"Well, let's talk about it in the future. If Hefei is not short of money and food, there should be a shortage of armor and horses, right? I can provide a small amount. You may know the war in the east. The Chen family and Jiangdong are still fighting for Guangling."

Chen Dengxin said that he was afraid of asking for help in the future. If Cao Cao sent troops to Hefei in the future, the Chen family would be powerless to ask for help.

"There's no need for these, if Yuanlong insists on asking me to put forward conditions." Long Xiang waved his hands lightly and sat upright, and said solemnly: "I just need a promise from the Chen family."

"Yun Qi, let's talk about it first."

When Chen Deng saw Long Xiang's "picture poor dagger", he answered very vigilantly.

Long Xiang put down his wine glass and stood up, looking sideways at the blue sky with his hands behind his back, and said meaningfully: "Xuzhou is adjacent to Huainan, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. When the world changes in the future, I hope the Chen family will be consistent with me."

"Why the world has changed? I didn't understand." Chen Deng faintly felt that something was wrong.

Looking back, Long Xiang explained: "Nowadays the heroes are vying for the throne, and the melee among the princes is intensifying. It is not yet known who can end the troubled times. A small person like me has to think about the long-term. If there is a hero who can turn the tide and help the Han Dynasty, I will help him. At that time I also hope that Yuanlong will be of the same heart as me."

"Oh?" Chen Deng was taken aback when he heard this: "I heard that you rejected Cao Cao's offer several times, so he must not be Yun Qi's hero?"

Long Xiang snorted coldly: "Cao thief has a father's enmity with me, how can I submit to the national thief?"

Chen Deng nodded slightly: "Although there are many princes at the moment, Cao Cao is undoubtedly the most dazzling one. If Sun Quan hadn't hindered him twice, he might have defeated Yuan Shao and annexed Hebei. Yun Qi eliminated the strongest first. I wonder if you Who is the hero in my heart?"

"Not yet known."

Long Xiang shook his head and added: "Although I don't see who the hero is now, the destiny is definitely not on Cao Cao's side."

"How do you know it?"

"As Yuan Long said, Cao Cao had a chance to defeat Yuan Shao, but at the critical moment, Jiang Dong was hindered. Who can fight against fate?"

"hiss"

Chen Deng didn't expect that Long Xiang's eloquence was outstanding, and he refuted it with his own point of view, so he asked from a different angle:

"If Cao Cao is excluded, it is even more impossible for Yuan Shao to gain the upper hand and be defeated. As for Sun Quan, Liu Biao, Liu Yan and others, they are all invincible. Do Yun Qi's so-called heroes really exist? Will they not exist?"

"Of course there is."

Long Xiang replied affirmatively: "The real hero in my heart should be hidden among the princes. He may be very weak at this time, but God has his own arrangements. Let's wait and see the changes in the world, and he will definitely stand out."

After hearing this, Chen Deng had an idea, and asked, "Aren't you talking about yourself? With the current population of Hefei, Yunqi can be regarded as controlling half of Huainan. If you plan to take Jiangdong as your foundation first, then wait and see how the world changes." In the Central Plains, I, Chen Deng, are willing to help, but the situation in Jiangdong is complicated, and the Sun family has spent a lot of time and money to get to where it is today."

The more Long Xiang listened, the more outrageous he became, he hurriedly interrupted the explanation: "What did Yuan Long say? The biggest advantage of me as a person is that I am very self-aware, besides, I am loyal to the Han Dynasty in my heart."

"Loyal to the Han Dynasty?"

Chen Deng frowned and looked at Long Xiang, thinking to himself that the other party's words were accurate, did he already have something in his heart?
If this person has the ambition to help the Han family, he must have strong personal ability, his background must not be too bad, and his surname is probably Liu.
Gather this information together, and then go through the current princes one by one in your mind, and the last familiar name is ready to come out.

Liu Bei.

Chen Dengxin said it's no wonder you were in Hefei, the place where the Fourth World War was fought, and you chose neither to surrender to Cao Cao nor to Jiangdong.

Does this count as a hero's opinion?
Thinking of this, Chen Dengcong Longxiang smiled knowingly.

"I already understand Yun Qi's intentions. If that hero can really stand out, the Xuzhou Chen family will surely advance and retreat with you."

"Oh"

Seeing Chen Deng's sudden change, Long Xiang said to himself, do you really understand?At this time, I didn't know that I was 'exposed' at all.

Chen Deng is known as the "Wonder of the World". Some people compare him with Xun Yu, and it can be seen that his intelligence and wisdom are different from ordinary people.

Seeing that Long Xiang was thinking, Chen Deng enthusiastically offered advice and said:

"Hefei is an important town in Huainan. Neither Cao Cao nor Sun Quan can get around it. It is not a long-term solution for you and the two to entrust the snake, and it is also very passive in the long run. I suggest that if conditions permit, try to find a way Taking Jiangdong down, the Sun family and his sons are capricious, and Yun Qi's dealing with them is like seeking skin from a tiger."

Long Xiang was taken aback when he heard this, and said bitterly, "Yuanlong, don't make fun of me. I'm only in Hefei, and I'm coveted by the Sun and Cao families. How can I win Jiangdong? I dare not do it in my dreams. "

"hey-hey."

Chen Deng smiled casually, and raised two fingers: "I offer two strategies of yin and yang to Yun Qi, you can choose one of them, and Sun Quan can't resist it."

"It's unbelievable, but I want to hear it too."

"The first is Yang Ce. Sun Quan attacked Shouchun twice. Cao Cao was very troubled by this move. Now he only wants to find Yuan Shao for a decisive battle. So if you use troops against Jiangdong, Cao Cao will not attack Hefei by surprise, and maybe even ask Zhang Liao to help him." , I will also send troops to Guangling to contain Zhou Yu, and then Sun Quan will lose sight of the other."

After Chen Deng finished speaking, Yang Ce deliberately paused, leaving time for Long Xiang to digest and understand.

Long Xiang thought briefly, then shook his head and replied: "I remember what I said just now, my advantage is that I have self-knowledge. If my own strength is not enough, it is too reluctant to borrow external force to accomplish things. What's more, with the current population size of Hefei, if it is too large, I can recruit two people." Thousands of soldiers, wanting to conquer Jiangdong with 2 people, is it just a dream?"

"hey-hey."

Chen Deng also knew the difficulties, but still encouraged him with a smile: "Don't underestimate Yun Qi, 2 people is actually quite a lot. At that time, Sun Ce only had a few thousand people crossing the river. Didn't he also build such a large family business?"

"No, no"

Long Xiang denied it repeatedly, frowned and sighed: "People in the world only know that Sun Ce crossed the river with a few thousand people, but they don't know that there were Wu Jing, Sun Ben, Zhu Zhi and others vying to join them at that time. Moreover, in the past, bandits and bandits were rampant in all parts of Yangzhou. It is even more divided, and Sun Ce is still under the banner of Yuan Shu, so he has the opportunity to defeat them one by one. If Liu Yao has the current situation of Sun Quan, Sun Ce may not be enough with tens of thousands of people."

"Haha, Yunqi is really delicate, no wonder he can persist until the end in Huainan, but"

Chen Deng changed the subject, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Jiangdong is only Zhou Yu who can barely be considered a general, but Yun Qi has the wisdom of Lu Zijing and the courage of Xu Zhongkang, but he dare not try? If I restrain Zhou Yu in Guangling, The rear is likely to be led by Sun Quan, and this man's use of troops is as childish as his age."
