Three Kingdoms: Do you call this a weak counselor? !

Chapter 65 If not, how can we accomplish extraordinary feats?
In other words, Liu Bei came to Xuzhou to support Tao Qian this time. His intention was to see if he could gain a foothold in Xuzhou.

As a result, he developed his own business in Xuzhou.

But when I came to Xuzhou, I found that Cao Cao was powerful.

There was simply no way to resist.

Therefore, he never fought much with Cao Cao.

Now, after learning that great changes had taken place in Yanzhou and that Cao Cao had really withdrawn his troops this time, Liu Bei couldn't help but stand up immediately.

Speak out and take the initiative to ask for a fight.

Willing to pursue Cao Cao.

After all, if he wants to gain a foothold in Xuzhou, doing nothing is obviously not possible.

So what can you do at this time to win over people's hearts as quickly as possible and make a name for yourself?

The natural thing to do is to fight Cao Cao.

As long as he wins a battle, his status in Xuzhou will immediately become different.

Next, the space for operation will become larger.

Seeing Liu Bei taking the lead in asking for a fight, Xu Dan and Cao Bao immediately gave up.

The two of them had been defeated by Cao Cao before, and they had long been angered.

Although they don't want to fight Cao Cao again, they have to decide when.

Cao Cao was strong before, so they naturally didn't want to fight Cao Cao again.

But now, clear news has come out that great changes have occurred in Yanzhou, and Cao Cao withdrew his troops in panic.

Under such circumstances, they can definitely get a big bargain if they pursue them!

Shame before the snow!
This is a great opportunity to gain military merit.

As a result, before the two of them opened their mouths, Liu Bei, an outsider, took the initiative and asked for a fight.

How can this work?

Isn't this a clear attempt to steal their credit? !
"Lord, I am willing to fight!"

"My lord, my subordinates are also willing to fight!"

Cao Bao and Xu Dan spoke one after another, vying to be the first to ask for a fight.

Xu Dan also looked at Liu Bei and said: "Liu Shijun has come all the way, but he is a guest army. This is my business in Xuzhou.

And fighting Cao Cao is too dangerous, so let me wait to take action first.

Please also ask Mr. Liu to be here and help me guard our retreat. "

Liu Bei looked a little depressed when he heard this.

He wanted to continue asking for a fight, but at this moment, Chen Deng unexpectedly spoke.

"Liu Shijun, what the two lieutenants said makes sense.

This time Cao Cao retreats, let them go to pursue him.

Liu Shijun, just stay here in Tancheng to prevent any accidents from happening. "

Chen Deng is very influential with Tao Qian, or in other words, very influential in Xuzhou as a whole.

At this time, as Chen Deng opened his mouth, Liu Bei could no longer ask for a fight.

But inside, I didn't feel very good.

Because this time, the good opportunity to defeat Cao Cao was gone.

Moreover, Chen Deng also showed him Chen Deng's attitude through practical actions.

Chen Deng is now from Cao Bao and Xu Dan!

Chen Deng's talent made Liu Bei, who was thirsty for talents and wanted a truly talented counselor, very excited.

He had thought about making Chen Deng his adviser more than once.

But at this moment, Chen Deng's words broke his illusion.

This made Liu Bei feel very uncomfortable and a sense of frustration arose.

Chen Deng's opening can be said to have the final say on this matter.

Even Tao Qian originally wanted Liu Bei to fight, but when Chen Deng spoke, Tao Qian said no more.

At first, according to Chen Deng's advice, Xu Dan and Cao Bao were asked to lead their troops to pursue Cao Cao.

Cao Bao and Xu Dan looked at each other, then at Liu Bei who looked a little unhappy, and raised their heads high.

Although he didn't say much, the meaning he wanted to express was already very clear.

That means you, Liu Bei, are just an outsider after all, and it is simply impossible to compete with locals like them.

Not only is the Lord on their side, Mr. Yuan Long is also on their side!
Cao Bao and Xu Dan left here quickly. They happily organized their troops and horses, left Tancheng, and went to chase Cao Cao and gain great military merit...

Liu Bei also said goodbye to Tao Qian and returned to his residence.

Prepare to gather troops and horses to help defend Tan City.

Although now, with Cao Cao's withdrawal, Tancheng is out of danger.

But Liu Bei still had to arrange for people to guard Tancheng.

He needs to find something to do so that he doesn't look like he's doing nothing.

As a result, not long after he came back, someone came to report that Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong had come to visit.

Liu Bei couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and immediately ran all the way to meet Chen Deng.

He has been jealous of Chen Deng for a long time and has long wanted to visit Chen Deng.

It's just that the Chen family is very powerful in Xuzhou, and Chen Deng is an important person under Tao Qian.

As a person who came to the rescue, it was really inappropriate for him to come into contact with someone like Chen Deng as soon as he arrived.

It is easy to cause some unnecessary misunderstandings.

So I never went to visit.

However, he never expected that Chen Deng would come to visit him at this time!
When Chen Deng saw Liu Bei, who was so eager for his arrival, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

After greeting Liu Bei, the two came to a secluded place.

Chen Deng looked at Liu Bei and said, "Is Liu Shijun still complaining that I spoke out in front of Tao Gong and blocked Liu Shijun's good job, causing Liu Shijun to miss the opportunity to make extraordinary achievements?"

Liu Bei shook his head when he heard this and said: "How could it be? Mr. Yuanlong must have had deep intentions when he made such suggestions.

Moreover, as an outsider, it is indeed taboo for me to be the first to ask for a fight.

If Mr. Yuan Long hadn't spoken out and tried to save me, I'm afraid I would have caused a catastrophe. "

Although he said this, Liu Bei was indeed a little dissatisfied with Chen Deng's previous actions.

Chen Deng looked at Liu Bei and said: "Liu Shijun, I am speaking this time to prevent Liu Shijun from suffering defeat."

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and then realized something.

He looked busy at Chen Deng and said, "Mr. Yuan Long, do you mean that if you go to pursue Cao Cao this time, you will encounter failure?"

Chen Deng nodded and said, "That's what I mean.

Cao Cao was accustomed to using troops, and he had many capable men and strangers under his command.

The Xi Zhicai and Guo Fengxiao who followed the army were both talented people.

At this time, how could we not expect that Yanzhou would undergo great changes and they would withdraw their troops, and that we would send people to hunt them down?

Therefore, there must be soldiers and horses ambushing Cao Cao.

And the ambush was all elite soldiers and horses.

Going to pursue Cao Cao will only lead to a huge defeat! "

When Liu Bei heard this, he was shocked.

Then he looked at Chen Deng and said: "Then... then if that's the case, why didn't Mr. Yuan Long explain it and persuade the two generals Cao and Xu?
In this way, less troops and horses can be lost. "

Chen Deng said with a smile: "If we can persuade them two to stop, then how will Liu Shijun be able to accomplish great feats?"

When Liu Bei heard Chen Deng's words, he couldn't help but be stunned.

For a moment, he didn't understand what Chen Deng meant.

Perhaps, it's not that I don't understand, but that I'm full of disbelief.I don’t know why Chen Deng treats himself like this.

You know, it didn't take too long for him to bring people to Tao Qian's place in Xuzhou.

And during these times, he didn't do anything too outstanding.
In order to avoid suspicion, he did not have much contact with powerful figures in Xuzhou such as Chen Deng.

As a result, Chen Deng suddenly looked at himself and said such a sentence.

This made him confused for a moment. What was Chen Deng's intention?
He already had some ideas in his mind.

But I didn't dare to think about it.

Chen Deng said:
"I know that Liu Shijun is a hero in this world, and he is definitely not a thing in the pond.

I intend to let Liu Shijun make great achievements so that he can gain a foothold in Xuzhou in the future. "

He looked at Liu Bei and said another piece of news that shocked Liu Bei.

"Tao Gong is old and sick.

Tao Gong's two sons were both useless and unable to protect Tao Gong's inheritance.

I looked around at everyone in Xuzhou, and there was no one who could take on a big responsibility.

The arrival of Mr. Liu made my eyes light up.

Liu Shijun is a man of great ability. After Tao Gong passes away, in my opinion, only Liu Shijun is the most suitable person to be the pastor of Xuzhou.

Only Liu Shijun can protect Xuzhou's interests.

Next, I intend to let Liu Shijun be the pastor of Xuzhou.

I don’t know what Liu Shijun is thinking? "

Chen Deng looked at Liu Bei with burning eyes.

By the way, what Chen Deng said was all sincere.

Originally, he had some expectations for Cao Cao.

However, after seeing what Cao Cao did in Xuzhou, he immediately gave up.

At first, he seemed at a loss, not knowing whose hands Xuzhou should be handed over to ensure the interests of the Chen family.

Until Liu Bei appeared and after some observation.

He discovered that Liu Bei was a character.

So he was a mat weaver and shoe seller, but he still had the name of a Han clan clan member.

And he is also very good at dealing with people. He is a skillful person.

He also likes to show off his benevolence and righteousness, and does not do things too ruthlessly.

If such a person can be promoted as the lord of Xuzhou, then the interests of the Chen family can basically be preserved.

Moreover, Liu Bei's reputation as a clan member of the Han Dynasty would not bring him much benefit before he became successful.

But as Liu Bei's status grew higher and higher, his reputation grew bigger and bigger.

So at the beginning, this seemed to be a very useless and useless name of a Han clan clan.

will show its true power.

It can bring him more benefits.

After hearing Chen Deng's words, Liu Bei became more confused and shocked.

I don't know whether it was Chen Deng's own thoughts when he came over to say these words to me, or whether it was Tao Qian who saw some of his thoughts.

Chen Deng was deliberately allowed to test him.

In fact, he was very moved by what Chen Deng said about becoming Xuzhou Mu.

But his reason told him that he must not say more on this matter at this time.

Immediately he looked at Chen Deng seriously and shook his head and said:
"Mr. Yuanlong, please don't joke.

This matter is of great importance, and when I came to Xuzhou, I just wanted to help Mr. Tao fight against Cao Cao. I had no other thoughts.

Besides, I am an outsider and have no foundation here.

Without any meritorious service, how could he be the shepherd of Xuzhou?
Don't mention it again at this time, because you are too timid to withstand Mr. Yuan Long's joking remarks. "

Chen Deng smiled and said:

“You don’t have any merit, so don’t worry about it.

Immediately Liu Shijun will make great achievements.

This time, when Cao Cao returns with his troops, he will definitely ambush elite soldiers and horses behind to deal with our pursuing troops.

If Xu Dan and Cao Bao led their troops to pursue them, they would definitely be ambushed by Cao Cao, and they would be killed by Cao Cao and return with a great defeat.

And Cao Cao hurried back to Yanzhou to deal with the affairs there.

After ambushing elite soldiers and defeating Cao Bao and Xu Dan, it was expected that we in Xuzhou would not dare to send any more troops to pursue them.

As for Yanzhou, the situation is very urgent.

Cao Cao must mobilize elite soldiers and horses and rush back to Yanzhou to deal with the affairs in Yanzhou.

Therefore, all its elite soldiers and horses will be drawn away.

Behind them will be some soldiers who are old, weak, sick, and not good at fighting.

At this time, Liu Shijun will lead his troops to pursue Cao Cao, and he will surely win a complete victory!

Cao Cao pressed Xuzhou out of breath, and many of Cao Bao and others in front lost their troops and generals.

Just how rare Liu Shijun's victory was was immediately highlighted.

In this way, won’t this miraculous feat be achieved?

When Liu Shijun goes to serve as the pastor of Xuzhou at that time, who will dare to say more? "

After hearing Chen Deng's words, Liu Bei finally understood what Chen Deng meant.

Think carefully about Chen Deng's strategy for pursuing Cao Cao this time.

He couldn't help but marvel, thinking this was really a brilliant idea!

It can be said that Cao Cao's psychology was completely calculated!

If you follow Chen Deng's suggestion, you will definitely win a great victory and achieve great achievements.

And with such merit, if you really have certain thoughts about Xuzhou Mu, and Chen Deng helps, then it is really possible!

But thinking so in his heart, Liu Bei still shook his head righteously and said:
"Next, be prepared to lead your troops to pursue Cao Cao.

But regarding Xuzhou Mu, please Mr. Yuanlong not to say any more.

I, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, came here this time just to help Tao Gong and fight against Cao Cao. I have no other ideas. "

When Chen Deng heard this, he didn't say much at this time.

Speaking of which, the conversation just now seemed relatively normal.

In fact, in his heart, he was evaluating Liu Bei based on this.

If Liu Bei mentioned this matter to himself, he would be ecstatic and agree to it without thinking.

Then Chen Deng must think twice about this matter.

But now Liu Bei's various performances are very consistent with what he thinks.

I feel that Liu Bei is indeed very suitable to serve as Xuzhou Shepherd.

At that moment, I had made up my mind and decided to work hard from behind to help Liu Bei obtain the position of Xuzhou Mu.

Chen Deng was here again. After talking to Liu Bei for a while, he quickly said goodbye to Liu Bei and returned.

After Liu Bei sent Chen Deng away, he stood here and pondered.

For a moment, thoughts were flying in my mind...

At this time, Cao Bao and Xu Dan were leading their troops on their way quickly.

He went to pursue Cao Cao, hoping to accomplish a miraculous feat.

After the two men chased for more than a hundred miles, they heard the sound of gongs and drums, and a group of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared in front of them.

The leading general, along with a neat line of elite soldiers, blocked the way of Xu Dan and Cao Bao...
