"General, in addition to sending a large army to protect the grain team, you also need to inform Cao Apu in advance." Chen Gong thought about it for three days, and he already had many plans in his heart.

Lu Bu asked, "What do you want to inform Cao Cao?" ”

Chen Gong said: "Is the general really willing to be with Yuan Shu?" ”

Lu Bu shook his head: "Naturally I don't want to, as soon as the 300,000 grain and grass arrives, I will immediately draw a line with Yuan Shu." ”

Chen Gong said: "But Cao Apu doesn't know. The general can let people inform Cao Apu, thinking that Cao Apu will not send people to burn grain and grass again, and the general has a little less risk, and then inform Cao Apu that if he is willing to give 100,000 stones of grain and grass, the general can go into battle at that time to go into battle to conquer Yuan Shu. ”

Chen Gong wants to benefit both sides.

Lu Bu is in Xuzhou, whether it is Cao Cao or Yuan Shu, they all want to win over Lu Bu now.

Whoever Lu Bu helps, whoever wins is more likely to win.

Yuan Shu did not hesitate to throw out 300,000 stones of grain and grass.

Cao Cao also asked Lu Bu to send troops to recruit Yuan Shu in the name of the Son of Heaven, but Lu Bu did not listen.

Those few holy decrees, Lu Bu doesn't know where to throw them now.

"Gongtai Gaojian, but Cao Cao will agree?"

The grudge between him and Cao Cao was very great, and he almost made Cao Cao homeless at the beginning.

"Although Cao Cao is ruthless, he is definitely the broadest person in the world."

Chen Gong has a deep understanding of Cao Cao, and has almost figured out Cao Cao's character, so he betrayed Cao Cao in the first place.

The more he got to know him, the more Chen Gong didn't want to be with Cao Cao.

"Who to send?"

If you want to contact Cao Cao, Song Xianhou Cheng can do these martial arts.

Send them there, and what would have been simple can become complicated.

The best candidate in Lu Bu's hands is naturally Chen Gong.

But Lu Bu didn't dare to send Chen Gong there.

He could put Yang Hong under house arrest, and Lu Bu was also worried that if Chen Gong was sent there, Chen Gong would also be placed under house arrest by Cao Cao.

There is no shortage of fierce generals in Lu Bu's hands, but there is a lack of strategists like Chen Gong.

Lu Bu's own bravery is unrivaled.

Most of the generals were impressed by Lu Bu.

But the strategists are different, they don't look at Lu Bu's bravery, they look at Lu Bu's identity, Lu Bu's potential, and Lu Bu's character.

With Lu Bu's past of killing Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo, except for Chen Gong, I am afraid that there are not many strategists who are willing to plan for Lu Bu.

No matter why Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo Ding Yuan in the first place, what outsiders saw was Lu Bu's betrayal.

In the eyes of outsiders, whether it is Dong Zhuo or Ding Yuan, they treat Bu Ruzi, but in the end, both of them were murdered by Lu Bu.

So in the eyes of the world, Lu Bu is already a white-eyed wolf.

They are planning for Lu Bu now, will Lu Bu be grateful to them?

Since he can't get Lu Bu's gratitude, and if he doesn't go along with Lu Bu's heart in the future, will Lu Bu kill them?

Now, even those strategists who don't have a monarch want to find someone to assist, they will definitely not choose Lu Bu.

If Lu Bu is chosen, I am afraid it will only be temporary, or it will not be long before he will break away from Lu Bu and find another high place.

Lu Bu didn't know who to choose to meet Cao Cao, but Chen Gong had already chosen for him.

"General, Chen Deng, Chen Yuanlong is feasible."

After the city of Xiapi was broken, Guan Yu fled with Liu Bei's wife and children, as well as Mi Zhu Jian Yong and others.

But Chen Deng did not leave, he was the head snake of Xuzhou, and he did not bet all his belongings on Liu Bei.

Mi Zhu, Guan Yu, Jian Yong and others almost all swore allegiance to Liu Bei.

But Chen Deng will not.

Chen Deng didn't need to rely on other people, he could gain a firm foothold in Xuzhou.

When Tao Qian was in Xuzhou, he had to rely on the Chen family.

Liu Bei took over later, and he also attached great importance to Chen Deng.

Even if Lu Bu broke through Xiapicheng, he didn't dare to move Chen Deng, and Chen Deng was still too defensive.

If you want Xuzhou to be stable, no one dares to move Chen Deng.

Lu Bu also met Chen Deng, and he wanted to reuse Chen Deng, but after several conversations, Chen Deng did not express his allegiance to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu didn't care.

"Chen Deng, will he agree?"

Lu Bu was a little worried that Chen Deng would be reluctant to go, or secretly make harm after going.

"General rest assured, Chen Yuanlong has great ambitions, and it is to deal with Yuan Shu, he will not refuse."

Everyone is a celebrity, although Chen Gong is the Chen family in Yanzhou, and Chen Deng is the Chen family in Xuzhou.

But Chen Gong also knows something about Chen Deng.

Since Chen Gong said that there was no problem, Lu Bu also asked Chen Deng to be called.

"Yuan Shu is the emperor, but it is a rebellion, how can the general be with him." As soon as Chen Deng came, he directly persuaded him.

Even if Lu Bu didn't call him, Chen Deng was thinking about coming to see Lu Bu these days.

"Yuan Long rest assured, the general will not be in the same stream as Yuan Shu." Chen Gong said with a smile.

"That'...... The grain and grass sent by Yuan Shu? Chen Deng wondered.

If Lu Bu and Yuan Shu were not in the same camp, and Yuan Shu was kicked in the head by a donkey, would he send so much grain and grass to Lu Bu?

"The general is just a snake with Yuan Shuxu, the general is dedicated to serving the Han Dynasty, how can he collude with the rebels." Chen Gongdao.

Chen Deng wondered in his heart, could he still have seen Lu Bu wrong?

Chen Deng didn't have a good impression of a martial artist like Lu Bu.

And I don't think Lu Bu is enough to succeed.

So even if Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou, Chen Deng did not get too close to Lu Bu.

Chen Deng thought that he had seen Lu Bu clearly, but Lu Bu took the initiative to draw a line with Yuan Shu this time, but it was unexpected by Chen Deng.

If it weren't for Zhao Hui's letter, Lu Bu wouldn't have been with Yuan Shu in the end, but it would definitely not be so easy.

Chen Deng, Chen Gong and others need to be persuaded with great effort, and Cao Cao needs to give substantial benefits.

It's just that Chen Deng didn't know the secret letter, and he didn't know Lu Bu's trust in Zhao Hui.

After Lu Bu told him about his mission this time, Chen Deng clenched his fists and said, "General rest assured. ”

Yuan Shu was their primary enemy.

And to destroy Yuan Shu, it is best for Lu Bu and Cao Cao to join forces.

"Yuanlong, don't let me down." Lu Bu didn't trust Chen Deng very much.

For a family like Chen Deng, it is difficult to guarantee their loyalty.

"General rest assured." Chen Deng said again: "I will not fail in my mission. ”

Chen Deng just took a few guards and left.

He had already been to Yanzhou once before and had contact with Cao Cao.

So Chen Deng didn't have any worries in his heart this time.

In addition, Hou Cheng and Song Xian also led a large army, guarding the border of Xuzhou, waiting for Yuan Shu's grain and grass, and then personally escorted the grain team to Xiapi.

Chen Deng didn't care whose hands Xuzhou was.

No matter who occupies Xuzhou, it is inseparable from Chen Deng.

is not only the strength of the Chen family, but also Chen Deng's reputation in Xuzhou.

Chen Deng's fame is not only in the family, but also among the people. He is in Xuzhou.

Liu Bei's prestige in Xuzhou may not be comparable to Chen Deng.

However, Lu Bu's desire to reap the benefits at both ends was in vain.

Cao Cao just promised Chen Deng that he would not burn the 300,000 stone grain and grass, and immediately sent someone to take back the strange soldiers.

But he refused to give Lu Bu 100,000 stone of grain and grass.

Like Yuan Shu, Cao Cao needed Lu Bu's help, but at the same time he didn't want Lu Bu to grow.
