No one expected that it would be Chen Deng, who had not yet recovered, to appear in the heavy rain and call a halt to the fight.
At this moment, his whole body was soaked by the heavy rain, and his soaked clothes clung to his body in a very uncomfortable posture, while his eyes were crystal clear, like rain, or filled with tears.
"Chen...Master Chen..."
Lu Lingqi murmured in her mouth, and it seemed that... all of a sudden, an extremely complicated light flashed in her eyes.
master?
This title made Hou Cheng frown.
"Yuanlong? Why are you stopping me? Is it possible that you still care about the friendship between master and apprentice? Isn't your purpose of getting close to Lu Lingqi just to gain Lu Bu's trust?" Hou Cheng snorted coldly: "The matter is now at this critical moment, how can it be? Can you have the kindness of a woman!"
This voice came out...
Huh, Chen Deng breathed a sigh of relief. He waved his hand, and countless soldiers behind him also gathered around Lu Lingqi.
"General Wei and General Hou, the top priority is to steal Lu Bu's Fang Tian Hua Ji and Red Rabbit Horse, capture Lu Bu, and surrender the city..."
At this point, Chen Deng paused for a moment, and his eyes turned to Lu Lingqi, "Leave this girl to me. You go to the government office quickly and implement the original plan!"
The words came out of my mouth...
"Master Chen... you... you... do you really want to harm your father?" Even though she had heard about Chen Deng, Yang Xiu's plan beforehand, at this moment... Lu Lingqi still had a look of disbelief on her face.
Lu Lingqi still couldn't believe that...that Master Chen Dengchen who patiently and patiently taught her the art of war and strategy, his purpose was always to harm her father?
There is indeed a mole in Xiapi City, but the mole is the person she respects the most.
At just over ten years old, how could Lu Lingqi's heart be able to withstand such trauma? She originally thought that everyone around her was good people, but...but now it seems that except for her father, everyone around her is...all bad people!
"Miss, Lu Bu's situation is over. It's not me who wants to harm him, it's him who wants to destroy himself!"
Chen Deng's tone became extremely cold.
"You..." Lu Lingqi wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say. In the past, her little mistress Diao Chan once told her that the world of adults has always been full of intrigues, and it's easy to dodge open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows!
At this moment, Lu Lingqi felt that she had grown up.
"Generals, why are you still standing there? Go to the government office quickly to capture Lu Bu! Could it be that you are going to delay Young Master Lu's plan!"
At this moment... Chen Deng coldly gave instructions to Wei Xu, Hou Cheng and others.
Wei Xu and Hou Cheng looked at each other. How could they not believe in Chen Deng at this moment? Chen Deng was their backbone!
"Walk…"
Wei Xu waved his hand, and immediately, countless soldiers hurried towards the government office with them!
The Lingju there is crying, the Diao Chan there is haunted, and the Lu Bu there is mentally and physically exhausted...
Lingju's cries and the sound of the rain pouring outside the door were like whips lashing Lu Bu's nerves.
At this moment, he was extremely tired, even...so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes!
sleepy…
Now is the time to take action!
"Come back...you are not allowed to hurt father." This time, it was Lu Lingqi who chased Hou Cheng, Wei Xu and others.
But... countless soldiers stopped her.
"Miss, you can't save anyone, your opponent is Master Chen in front of you!" Chen Deng groaned softly.
Immediately, he coldly ordered: "Form up!"
That's right... As the right officer appointed by Lu Bu, Chen Deng holds a certain amount of military power.
And after his training, these soldiers have already been able to form a battle formation, and they can easily deal with a mere Lu Lingqi!
"The eldest lady is offended..." A low moan fell.
"Frame rang rang rang…"
Lu Lingqi's spear collided with the continuous weapons, and the sound of metal collision was endless, but... the sound stopped abruptly soon.
Facing the battle formation set up by Chen Deng, Lu Lingqi didn't even make it past ten moves.
"it's over."
Looking at Lu Lingqi who was tied up, Chen Deng closed his eyes and shook his head slightly...
But Lu Lingqi was still shouting, "It's me, it's me who looked away, it was me... I was the one who harmed my father and Xiapi City!"
Tears in my eyes…
There were obvious tears in Lu Lingqi's eyes. The tears merged with the rain and hit her body. She couldn't tell whether the feeling on her body was cold or pain. She couldn't tell whether her heart was bleeding or bleeding.
Crying!
Scenes from the past come to mind...
In the past, if she, Lu Lingqi, had not insisted on learning the art of war and strategies from Chen Deng, how could Chen Deng have attracted his father's attention? How could he have become a right-hand member of the army, holding great power, and even plotting against Mr. Chen Gong, the general advisor.
The source of all this lies in her, Lu Lingqi!
Wrong, totally wrong!
When she thought of this, the tears in Lu Lingqi's eyes became even more moist, like beads with broken strings.
Why?
She wanted to ask, why is all this happening?
"Hasn't the eldest lady always wanted to learn strategy?" Chen Deng walked slowly in front of Lu Lingqi... "This is strategy. Gaining the trust of others is strategy, and using this trust to earn what you want is also strategy! The world of adults
It's not as simple as you think... I wish..."
Speaking of this, Chen Deng's eyes slowly closed. He wanted to say how much he hoped Lu Lingqi did not go to Chen's house today and did not hear their plot!
In this way, Lu Lingqi is still the carefree and carefree girl.
But after this night, the "innocent" heart in the girl's heart will eventually no longer exist.
Chen Deng hesitated for a moment and decided not to tell her this.
The reason for this...
How can a girl experience this?
Naive, Lu Bu was still naive. He naively thought that among the three factions in Xuzhou, the Danyang sect and the Mingshi sect had surrendered to him.
What a pity... The celebrity faction surrendered to him in name, but in fact, they had already joined Cao's camp.
The struggle between factions? It has always been dark and undercurrent!
"Mr. Chen? How should we deal with Lu Lingqi?"
A soldier asked Chen Deng.
call…
Chen Deng breathed softly. "Let's take him to the Chen Mansion, no..."
His eyes rolled inadvertently, and he hesitated for a moment, "Be escorted to the east city gate, and when the city opens to surrender, dedicate the eldest lady to Cao Sikong and Lu Sinong!"
this…
The soldier was slightly startled when he heard this.
In my impression, dedicating the eldest lady to Cao Sikong and Lu Sinong was nothing...
However, there seems to be a garrison at the south city gate, and that is Zang Ba’s Taishan Army!
In my impression...among the eight capable generals who participated in the rebellion and captured the city this time, there was no Zang Ba?
this…
Don't wait for the soldier to ask questions.
Chen Deng raised his voice: "Why are you still standing there, escort the eldest lady to the east city gate!"
"Here!" The soldier did not dare to hesitate or refute.
...After all, Chen Deng and Yang Xiu are the two highest-status people in the entire Xiapi City. Who dares to disobey them?
"Master Chen, you...you..."
Even when she was being escorted to the east city gate, Lu Lingqi bared her teeth at Chen Deng.
She wanted to scold "Master Chen", but...she couldn't.
Everyone is their own master, can you blame Master Chen? You can only blame her...blame her for being too stupid and naive, thinking that everyone around her is a good person.
Tread...
The sound of footsteps treading in the water was particularly clear. After the soldiers took Lu Lingqi away, Chen Deng faced the void.
It seems that from gaining Lu Bu's trust, to alienating Chen Gong, to instigating rebellion against the civil and military forces of Xiapi City, the entire operation he participated in was successful!
However, only Lu Lingqi made him feel guilty!
Lu Lingqi really regarded Chen Deng as her master!
It's a pity, it's a pity...
call.
"Miss, I'm sorry!" Chen Deng slowly lowered his head, his eyes looking in the direction of the east city gate, "This is all the master can do!"
——"Take care, Miss..."
The words are profound.
…
…
Xiapi City, prison.
This is a humid, cold place, and with heavy rain pouring down, it seems even colder.
At this moment, Chen Gong was curled up, leaning against a corner of the prison. It seemed that only in this way could he lock in a touch of warmth.
"Mr. Chen, look at this, it's a good drink."
A prison guard named Wu quietly carried a plate of side dishes and a pot of hot wine. He opened the prison cage and poured the wine and side dishes all over the stone steps in front of Chen Gong.
A flattering look...
Since ancient times, there have always been speculators!
Just like someone with such a humble status as Wu Yaojiu.
In normal times, when Chen Gong was in a high position, he would have no chance to show filial piety. Now, he could make a bet, and if the bet won... or not, he would be able to follow Chen Gong and become famous!
"Mr. Chen, how are you doing? How is this wine?"
"Wine is good wine." After a slow sip, Chen Gong felt that his whole body felt much warmer. "Didn't Feng Xian say that you are not allowed to bring me wine and food? You are disobeying his order by secretly sending me some food."
, What’s wrong, are you giving me wine again today?”
this…
Wu Yaoyu scratched his head. "Mr. Chen, you don't know this. Now our entire Xiapi City is rioting, and your good days are coming!"
"Riot?" Chen Gong said coldly: "Why riot?"
"It's not because Cao Sikong outside the city dug a trench and planned to divert the Si River to pour into our Xiapi City."
Wu Yaojiu said truthfully: "Speaking of which, Cao Sikong has done his utmost to be benevolent and gave General Lu a chance to surrender. If he doesn't surrender, then the heavy rain will be the day when the floods come back, and all the soldiers and civilians of Xiapi City will be killed."
This is why I became a fish and a turtle in the water..."
call…
Hearing this, Chen Gong took a deep breath.
Heavy rain, Surabaya, backflow?
this…
"You mean to say that today...it rains heavily today, and Cao Cao will open the floodgates and release the water, diverting the Si River to pour into our Xiapi City?"
Chen Gong asked in shock.
"Yes..." Wu Yaojiu nodded repeatedly. "Otherwise, the entire army and civilians in Xiapi City rioted. Everyone united and rushed to the city gates, intending to open the city gates to welcome Cao Sikong into the city! Otherwise, really
When the floods come back, won't we, the people of Xiapi, be in trouble?"
yes…
Chen Gong's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
Just imagine, who doesn’t have a wife, children, and children? Facing a flood? Strong men can still escape to higher ground, but how can the lives of the whole family be saved?
Riots, mutinies... seem unexpected, but if you think about it carefully, they are reasonable.
"Oh…"
"Hehehe..."
Thinking about this, Chen Gong laughed miserably.
Wu Yaoyu raised his head and asked curiously: "Mr. Chen, what are you laughing at?"
Chen Gong shook his head, and said with disappointment in his eyes: "Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, he is a drunkard who doesn't want to drink, and he doesn't want to dig deep trenches, and he doesn't want to flood his body! Haha... the human heart, and the human heart, are afraid.
The heart of surrender, the heart of surrender, Cao Mengde... No, not Cao Mengde, isn't this kind of strategy always the style of Yinlin?"
"Hahaha, just by digging canals... I broke down the solid wall of Xiapi City without even a single blow... It's amazing, it's amazing..."
Hey…
Wu Yayu rolled his eyes. Although he couldn't understand what Chen Gong was talking about, he still felt that it was very powerful after all.
It seems that it is not Cao Sikong who is powerful, but Yinlin. So the question is?
Is Yinlin beside Cao Sikong?
Wu Yayu's eyes rolled, he didn't know how serious it was!
Chen Gong was still looking up to the sky and sighing.
"It's too late to save the day, even I'm too tired to save the day!"
"The gains and losses of a city and a county, the adversity of the war situation, these are not terrible, and they can all be reversed, but... if people's hearts are scattered, Xiapi City will naturally not be able to defend it."
"Yinlin has seen through Lu Bu, I, Chen Gong, and the people's aspirations in Xiapi City. Every step of his strategy of 'attacking the enemy's heart' is directly at the throat of Xiapi City."
Chen Gong's eyes were full of despair, and his voice became increasingly sad.
At this moment, in this situation, he had just completely understood Yinlin's layout. From the expedition to Xiapi to the layout of the city that was about to be defeated without any bloodshed, he could almost predict that the situation in Xiapi City tonight was bound to change.
Flag!
"Hehe...hehehe..."
Sneer, bitter smile, helpless smile.
But...Wu Aiyu was very sure. "Mr. Chen, don't you think that the destruction of Xiapi City is an opportunity for Mr. Chen?"
Hmm... chance?
Chen Gong's eyes narrowed and he immediately asked: "What opportunity?"
Wu Yaoyu put his head in front of Chen Gong. "Mr. Chen had a life-saving grace from Cao Sikong. I heard that Cao Sikong treated Mr. Chen with great courtesy in the past. As long as Mr. Chen shows mercy in front of Cao Sikong, then... then
Aren’t you going to be in a high position again all of a sudden?”
this…
Chen Gong paused slightly, he was right!
Chen Gong could also imagine that with Cao Cao's temperament, Chen Gong... would probably put aside his past grudges and entrust him with important responsibilities.
But in fact, Chen Gong couldn't pass the test in his heart!
——I would rather betray others than others betray me...
Chen Gong could not pass this level no matter what.
He can assist a mediocre person, but he can never assist a cruel person.
Cao Cao's murder of Lu Boshe happened right in front of Chen Gong, You Zi vividly remembered it!
He and Cao Cao are not the same people.
Absolutely not!
"Cao Cao and I are not the same people!"
"This opportunity, haha, don't let it go, don't let it go!" Chen Gong said coldly.
this…
Wu Yaoyu feels that the sky is falling. Damn it, I will provide you with delicious food. I just want to hold your thigh. I dare you... You don't want to join Cao Cao or become a high official. Suddenly... Wu Yaoyu has a kind of daily life.
Got the feeling of a dog.
But...he still wanted to save her again.
"Mr. Chen, surrendering to Cao Ying does not necessarily mean surrendering to Cao Sikong..." Wu Yayou's words were meaningful. "I heard that Cao Sikong's most important person is Lu Yu, the leader of Longxiao Camp, so it would be good to join him...Longxiao Camp is relatively independent.
Moreover, among the civil and military personnel in Longxiao Camp, which one is not famous and powerful in all directions?"
"I heard that the Xuducheng Medical Office is also in charge of Commander Lu. He spreads out medical officers to cure typhoid fever for the people in the Central Plains. This is all Commander Lu's arrangement! If Mr. Chen can join the Longxiao Camp, then... the future is limitless!"
The implication of Wu Yao's words is that only your future is limitless, and my future is also limitless. Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen, please work harder!
Hey…
Needless to say, Wu Yaoyu's words really made Chen Gong's heart palpitate.
It's not that he was moved by Long Xiaoying's illustrious reputation and Lu Yu's ability to carry a pot to save the world...
But...from the beginning to the end, Yinlin's "credence" and "idea" are used to formulate every strategy!
Speaking of which, Chen Gong has the typical characteristics of a famous person in the Han Dynasty - adhering to the concept of benevolence and filial piety in governing the country, adhering to the idea of serving the emperor with respect, and his character is "upright and upright". Whenever he encounters injustice, he must take the initiative to stand up
Come out and fight bravely!
To put it bluntly, Chen Gong is the clearest among the clearest, the most famous among the famous...
The emperor respects the emperor and saves the common people. He attaches great importance to filial piety and righteousness. It is precisely for such a person to witness Cao Cao's murder of Lu Boshe. This is unfilial and unrighteous!
There is also the phrase "I would rather betray others than others betray me", which is completely different from the creed that Chen Gongzun espouses, so...the two of them finally came to an end.
But Long Xiaoying and Lu Yu are completely different from Cao Cao.
The plans he often proposes are based on "attacking the enemy's heart" and subduing the enemy without fighting.
It is true...from the effect point of view, the results are remarkable.
But if you think about it from another perspective, it is also a way to protect the people, protect the common people, and try to avoid unnecessary casualties!
His creed seems to be quite consistent with what Chen Gong believes in.
However, the only thing Chen Gong cares about is the relationship between Lu Yu and Cao Cao, and the relationship between Lu Yu and Han Ting. This... is extremely important, and even related to whether Chen Gong can be willing to be loyal to him!
No matter what…
Because of Wu Yao's reminder, Chen Gong seemed to see a new hope, a hope that he could try.
This was undoubtedly like lighting a candle in the depths of his desperate soul, illuminating the future.
"Maybe...maybe...you can try to make contact."
Finally, Chen Gong relented, and this also made the big stone in Wu Yayu's heart fall smoothly.
Darling, my thighs are not even, so I really hugged them right!
Just then.
"tread"
"Tap..."
The sound of rapid footsteps came from the entrance of the prison.
Within a moment, a handsome young man, escorted by a dozen soldiers, arrived in front of Chen Gong's prison.
"Are you Chen Gong?"
His tone is high-spirited, and his pride cannot be concealed in his words!
"So what? Who are you?" Chen Gong looked at the young man coldly.
"It doesn't matter who I am, but my young master specifically mentioned that he wants to see you, so this is particularly important." The young man narrowed his eyes and replied with a smile.
With this look and this voice, who else could it be besides the arrogant Yang Xiu?
"Who is your young master?" Chen Gong continued to ask.
"Haha, Mr. Chen will know it when he sees it." At this point, Yang Xiu waved his hand. "Come on, take Mr. Chen back. Be careful. Our young master has specially told you not to treat Mr. Chen lightly."
"Mr. Chen is a respectable opponent in the eyes of our young master!"
Huo...a respectable opponent?
At this point, Chen Gong could probably tell who this young master was.
Not to mention, being able to be regarded as a respectable opponent by this young master, or to be precise, by Yinlin, made Chen Gong's originally cold mood suddenly become much hotter.
"Haha..." He laughed bitterly. "I didn't expect that your young master would value me, Chen Gong, so much. I don't know whether this is joy or sorrow!"
Hearing this…
Yang Xiu smiled lightly. "Mr. Chen, don't think too much! Speaking of which, you are still the first person to be rated as a 'respectable opponent' by my young master. I am really envious of you!"
this…
Chen Gong raised his head and looked at the sky through the prison window. It was still raining heavily!
"When will your young master come to the city?"
This question means a lot...
Yang Xiu narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly. "It should be soon!"
This answer also has a profound meaning...
Just as Chen Gong asked and Yang Xiu answered, at this moment, in the Xiapi City Government Office... the action began!
Someone stole the horse!
Someone stole Fang Tian’s painted halberd!
Someone stole the three-pronged purple gold crown;
Steal that Xichuan red brocade and hundred-flower robe;
Steal the beast-faced, head-swallowing chain armor;
Steal that exquisite lion belt...
Now that Lu Bu has taken off his magic armor, how much more powerful can he be in combat?
…
…
——Xiapi City Government Office was attacked!
——Countless soldiers and brave soldiers gathered in an instant, each carrying a sword, like a tiger or a wolf! In the middle of the night, heavy rain poured down, and they seemed to fall from the sky. When Lu Bu woke up, countless spears and sabers were already pointed at him.
Also tied with strong ropes!
Right in front of Diao Chan, right in front of Lingju.
Woo woo woo…
Wow wow wow…
Storms of wind and rain roared in, and soon the land returned to its original peace and loneliness...
The only thing left...Diaochan's cry, Lingju's cry!
