It's not that the men are unscrupulous, it's that the women are too seductive!
He believes that every man is decent!It's just that there are too many temptations and it's easy to make mistakes.
In this way, Liu Bei still has something in common with him!
The other party loves Mrs. Gan, and he loves being his wife!Hmm... quite like it!
"Look at it, both of you!"
In his family, he never speaks out, and the minority obeys the majority in everything, very democratic!
This is also one of the reasons why several women in the family are so attached to him!
In this era, there are really not many people who are willing to respect and love women.
After the matter was settled, Lu Lingqi and the three daughters entered the room to continue chatting.
Xia Houzhe lay down to sleep and rest. If he didn't replenish his physical strength, he didn't have the energy to pay the public food at night!
Especially that Zhang Ning, he can't be wild!Every time he can't stand it!
As for Lu Bu...he went to find Wang Yue and Cao Chun with flying chess.
Time flies, and the day passes.
The next day, Gan Mei was left in Xiaopei by Xia Houzhe. After all, she didn't know martial arts, so it was very inconvenient.
Cao Cao led his army southward, and captured Liu County with little effort!
Thirty to forty thousand troops headed towards Pengcheng.
Five miles outside Pengcheng, they set up camp and launched a small-scale attack on Pengcheng.
But it failed to break through. After all, Pengcheng is the big city of Xuzhou, and fifty catapults are indeed not enough.
The atmosphere in Pengcheng was tense and heavy.
"My lord! More than 500 people died on our side, and Cao Ying only suffered more than [-] injuries! They were all shot to death by the defensive crossbow!"
Hearing the report from his subordinates, Tao Qian staggered and almost fell.
"What? Only over 500 enemies died?"
"That's right! A lot of our towers have collapsed! The city wall is not a big deal!"
The lieutenant answered with hands clasped.
Tao Qian looked at the generals under his command in panic.
"Everyone, our army has only 4 people here, so you should think of a way, how to fight against Cao Cao?"
The generals were silent, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang closed their eyes, as if they had nothing to do with themselves.
The angry Tao Qian gritted his teeth!
Chen Deng stopped talking, and stood quietly beside Mi Zhu. He also had nothing to do.
As for the Liu Bei brothers, they were arranged by Tao Qian to guard the city at the front and did not participate in the parliament.
Seeing that no one had an idea, Tao Qian sighed!
After a moment of silence, he stood up and looked at the crowd.
"Brother Liu Bei is brave and resourceful, but the enemy army is too strong, and I'm afraid it's not enough to resist!"
"How about... let's send someone to ask for help from Yuan Shu in Yuzhou? What do you think?"
"Anyway, we are still allies in name, he shouldn't be so ruthless!"
"As long as Yuan Shu is willing to send troops, when the time comes, we will send troops to attract Cao Jun's attention, and Yuan Shu will burn Cao Cao's food!"
"If it succeeds, Cao Ying's food and grass will be unsustainable, and the troops will definitely retreat! What do you guys think?"
Tao Qian's heart was heavy, no one wanted to ask others for help.
Especially that guy Yuan Shu was still a little unclear with him.
As soon as Tao Qian finished speaking, he was stopped by Chen Deng.
"My lord, please don't! Ask Yuan Shu to do it, it's no different from seeking a tiger's skin!"
"I don't know if the strategy of burning food and attacking will be successful, but if it succeeds, we will beat Cao Cao back!"
"But another powerful Yuan Shu has been brought in! Now that I, Xuzhou, was betrayed by Zang Ba, there are only more than [-] people left in total. How can I fight against Yuan Shu?"
There is a sentence that Chen Deng didn't say clearly.
That is, if Xuzhou was occupied by Yuan Shu, it would be better to hand it over to Cao Cao!
At least the people under his command are living a better life, and they attach great importance to agriculture!
However, these words are destined not to be said, as long as they are said, he, Chen Deng, will certainly not be able to escape.
Now is a sensitive period, even the slightest sign of something wrong, Tao Qian will kill it!
However, Tao Qian did not follow Chen Deng's words.
Instead, he turned to look at Sun Qian.
"I've made up my mind! Gongyou, go to Yuzhou, find Yuan Shu and explain this to him! I'm willing to take Guangling County as a reward!"
Hearing this, everyone was extremely disappointed!
This lord...is afraid of being beaten by Cao Cao!
The battle has been messed up!
After the meeting was over, Chen Deng walked to the city wall in a daze, and looked at the people in the city with his hands behind his back.
And the land and rivers around Pengcheng.
The mood can be described as extremely complicated!
In order to run Xuzhou well and make the people rich, he has spent a lot of thought!
Now...Tao Qian wants to lure the wolf into the house to fight against the tiger!
Regardless of whether he succeeds or not, he, Tao Qian, has disappointed the generals under his command.
It is useless to cede land and ask for help!
Just after he sighed several times, a hand rested lightly on his shoulder.
"Huh? Mi Biejia? Why are you here?"
"Hehe, Yuanlong! Did the lord let you down today?"
Mi Zhu smiled and looked at Chen Deng. He still admired the person in front of him.
Repairing water conservancy and farmland are all actions for the people!
Chen Deng had a wry smile on his face: "Don't drive, why do you ask questions knowingly? I think it's not just me?"
Mi Zhu smiled faintly, and stood side by side with Chen Deng with his hands behind his back.
"Yuanlong thought, what about my Xuzhou?"
Chen Deng didn't understand what Mi Zhu meant, but he opened his mouth to answer.
"It's rich in products, outstanding people, it's a good place!"
"Oh! That's right, the place is great! It's a pity..."
Mi Zhu shook his head, sighing for a while.
Seeing his pointed expression, Chen Deng frowned.
"Don't drive, you have something to say, there is no one else here! Why are you so secretive?"
"Hehe! Since Yuanlong wants to hear it, I'll talk to you!"
Mi Zhu smiled.
"The current lord is no longer the same as he was back then! He was in a hurry to go to the doctor, and what he is talking about is his current state!"
"In the past, he saw that Cao Cao was weak, so he wanted to invade Yanzhou. I dissuaded him at that time, but he insisted on going his own way! The result now is the mistake he made at the beginning!"
"Why did he make mistakes and let us and the people bear it?"
"Do you think that our current military strength can withstand Cao Cao's elite, or that we can withstand Yuan Shu's 10,000+ army from Yuyang and Yangzhou?"
After thinking for a few seconds, Chen Deng shook his head.
"Probably unstoppable!"
"Hehe, what if! I said if, our Xuzhou falls. Then do you think Cao Cao or Yuan Shu, whoever wins Xuzhou, is better for the people of Xuzhou?"
"Should...it should be Cao Cao, right? The people of Yanzhou place great emphasis on farming, and he secretly agrees with the way of benefiting the people and governing the country! I am a like-minded person! As for Yuan Shu...forget it."
Chen Deng responded, and Mi Zhu smiled meaningfully.
Without further words, he patted Chen Deng on the shoulder, turned his head and walked down the tower.
Looking at the back of Mi Zhu leaving, Chen Deng was thoughtful, and his eyes flashed.
Mi Zhu has his own ideas, Pengcheng's [-] army, plus Liu Bei's [-], a total of [-]!
Ten thousand of them belonged to Chen Deng!
Moreover, Chen Deng's Chen family is a big family in Xuzhou!
The contacts under the sect are all over Xuzhou, and they can be described as local tyrants!ingrained!
If he can be made to betray him, it will undoubtedly have a huge effect on bringing down Tao Qian!
Mi Zhu wasn't afraid of the incident being exposed, anyway, he didn't say anything, where would Chen Deng report it?
He complained and chatted with Chen Deng for a while, talking about the general situation!
This is the conversation between smart people, stop at the point, don't let yourself keep the handle!
He believed that Chen Deng could understand the meaning of these words!
For these powerful families, does it matter who controls Xuzhou?
unimportant!
The long-term of the family is the most important thing!
Chapter 330
That night
Cao Cao received two secret letters, one of which was from Mi Zhu.
The content of the letter was nothing more than to inform Cao Cao of Tao Qian's plan!
As for the other letter, it was much the same!
It's just more detailed than Mi Zhu's, and the deployment of Pengcheng's troops is also written out.
Even... what the letter said, you are welcome at the east gate of Pengcheng, and we will never resist...
It's very attractive!
Like a widow in light pajamas who opens the door for you!
However, this letter is not signed!Cao Cao doesn't know the truth!
Maybe it's a fairy jumping or not!
"Gentlemen! What do you think of these two letters?"
Cao Cao tapped the table lightly, and handed the letter to the generals under his command!
Cao Chun chuckled, his face relaxed: "My lord, don't be afraid! If he dares to come, Yuan Shu, I dare to shoot him in the face!"
"I guarantee that there will be no loss of food and grass! Speaking of which, I haven't seen Ji Ling for a long time!"
Cao Cao waved his hand, ignoring Cao Chun's words.
"I didn't ask this! Of course I'm not afraid of Yuan Shu. I'm asking about the second letter. Is it worth trusting? Could it be a trick of suspicion?"
Guo Jia frowned: "My lord, what you're worried about is that Tao Qian's side has people who are both true and false? First release the real news, so that we can mistakenly believe that the letter is true!"
"After we trust, go to the east gate to ambush the army and ambush us?"
