Chapter 555
Hearing Chen Deng's words, Guo Jiadeng immediately became interested, and hurriedly said: "Oh? Do you have a plan to kill Yuan Shang and Sun Quan? Tell me quickly and listen!"

Chen Deng chuckled, and said: "Of course it's okay, but please ask Guo Jijiu to agree to Chen Deng's request."

Guo Jia frowned, pretended to be stupid and said in a daze, "What request?"

Chen Deng wasn't in a hurry or annoyed, he just smiled and said, "It's a request to ask for sacrificial wine to find a magnanimous path for the Chen family and my son after my death."

Guo Jia slowly closed his eyes, and after a long silence, he finally spoke.

"Chen Yuanlong, it's not impossible to ask Guo to agree to your request, it's just that Guo needs you to provide a corresponding reward, and you should understand what this reward is, right?"

Hearing this, Chen Deng hurriedly knelt down on one knee, dragged his weak body and saluted Guo Jia deeply, and said, "Don't worry Guo Jijiu, I will do my best!"

………………

………………

When he was young, Chen Deng finished explaining the strategy to Guo Jia, Guo Jia immediately ordered someone to carry Chen Deng out, sent him to the guest room to recuperate, and then asked everyone for their opinions.

"Everyone, what do you think of what Chen Deng said and what Shicai was planning?" At this moment, Guo Jia seemed to have inherited Cao Cao's habit of asking for opinions from his subordinates no matter whether he had reached a conclusion or not.

Zang Ba was the first to stand up to object, saying: "Chen Deng cannot be trusted. I will ask Guo Jijiu to ignore him. Either kill him or expel him. If he stays here, he will always be a disaster!"

Guo Jia turned to look at Zang Ba, smiled and said, "What is the basis for General Xuan Gao to make such a statement?"

Zang Ba snorted and said, "According to what he has done in the past!"

Guo Jia nodded, then turned to look at the other generals, and said, "Where are the others, what else do you want to say?"

After a brief silence, Li Dian left the shift.

"Guo Jijiu, there will be something to say at the end."

Guo Jia raised his hand with a smile, and said, "General Manchester City has something to say, but it doesn't matter."

Li Dian gathered his words, and then said slowly: "Guo Jijiu, please forgive me for my clumsy eyesight. In your opinion, is Chen Deng's disease real or fake?"

Guo Jia smiled slightly, and asked without answering, "What does General Mancheng think?"

Li Dian thought for a while and said, "According to my opinion, it should be true."

Guo Jia laughed: "Guo also thinks so."

Li Dian breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and said, "If it's true, then it's easy to say. According to my opinion, Chen Deng used to rebel against his lord repeatedly because of family interests, but now he is terminally ill. There are not many, and it is imminent to find a backer for his son and the Chen family, so, according to my opinion, what he said just now should be probably true."

Guo Jia nodded upon hearing this.

"In addition, Chen Deng and Lv Bu's daughter have a sworn feud. It is of no benefit to the Chen family to seek refuge with Yuan Shang. According to Chen Dengzhi's shrewdness, he should not do such a stupid thing. After all, it is really risky for him to invest in Yuan Shang. It's too big, if it's safe, I'll continue to serve the Cao family, let Xuzhou be under the control of the Cao family, so that the boat of his Chen family will not capsize, and with the plan he just offered, although it can kill Yuan Shang and Sun Quan are exaggerating, but it is not a good strategy. I think Chen Deng really wants to use the power of offering wine to find a big tree for the Chen family to enjoy the shade after his death."

Guo Jia nodded when he heard the words, expressing his affirmation of Li Dian's words, then turned his head to Zhang Liao and said, "General Wen Yuan, what do you think?"

Zhang Liao thought for a while and said, "I don't know whether it's true or not, but Chen Deng's plan, you might as well give it a try. If you fail, he will be killed immediately in my city of Xiapi to avoid future troubles. If it succeeds." , then we can use this to publicize it, so that both Yuan Shang and Soochow know that this strategy was offered by Chen Deng, and the enmity between Chen Deng and the two families will be even more unsolvable, and we will be willing to serve our army at that time Wouldn't it be wonderful to use it?"

Hearing this, Guo Jia's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded, "General Zhang's words are reasonable, and they coincide with Guo!"

*************************
At this time, Yuan Shang's army and the Eastern Wu army were still fighting in Guangling. Both sides had their own victories and losses. They were stalemate and each suffered injuries. Only Guo Jia's army was in Xiapi, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. The two sides have nothing to do with him.

It was at this time that Chen Deng of Xiapi presented a superstitious letter to Yuan Shang, saying that Guo Jia's old illness had relapsed, he was bedridden and unable to manage affairs, and there was no owner in the city. Chen Deng was willing to offer a city to Yuan Shang for protection.

And so far, only a few top generals in the army and Yuan Shang himself knew about Chen Deng's secret attachment to Yuan Shang, and the rest of the soldiers were kept secret. When they saw this letter, they had their own opinions.

Some generals said that this was Guo Jia's strategy and it was not credible, while others believed that Guo Jia was weak and well known to the world, and now that he came to Xuzhou again, he was worried about being tired and unacceptable, and it was reasonable for him to suffer from illness. Chen Deng in Guangling has always been a philistine, seeing Yuan Jun's strength, it is reasonable to surrender.

The two parties with different opinions couldn't stop arguing, and they could almost fight in the commander's tent. Yuan Shang didn't say a word, but after the two parties with different opinions finished arguing, he just said that he needed to think about it, and asked everyone to go out first, just stay A senior general who knew the inside story was released.

After everyone went out, the generals in the tent who knew the inside story began to discuss in detail.

As the mastermind of the Xuzhou battlefield at this moment, Pang Ji hurriedly said: "My lord, what does this letter of surrender from Chen Deng mean? Is it a trick? Or is Guo Jia really seriously ill?"

Yuan Shang pondered for a while before he smiled and said: "It's a strategy. This battle is a design made by Chen Deng in order to gain Guo Jia's trust and get rid of the suspicion of the Cao generals in Xiapi City. It is a battle that must be fought. To put it bluntly, Now, for us, this is a battle that must be lost, and we must cooperate with him!"

All the generals were silent when they heard the words, they cooperated with Chen Deng to fight a losing battle, no matter who listened to it, they would feel uncomfortable.

Yuan Shang smiled slightly and said: "Don't be discouraged, everyone. There is no way around it. Guo Jia is a genius in the world. If he doesn't do enough tricks, how can he be easily hooked? To deal with extraordinary people, we must use extraordinary tactics. This is also for the sake of Don't be concerned about the layout of the final victory."

Zhang He arched his hands and said: "My lord, we can understand, but I want to ask my lord, once we take action against Xiapi, what will happen to Soochow?"

Yuan Shang smiled and said: "I don't know, I just know that according to Chen Deng's ingenuity, while giving us a letter of false surrender, there should be countermeasures against Soochow. We just do our best and cooperate with him to fight this battle." The battle is fine, and the rest is out of our consideration... Pang Ji, immediately sent someone to reply to Chen Deng, saying that the general accepted his surrender, and General Jun Yi, immediately prepare the troops and horses, according to Chen Deng's false surrender agreement According to the time and instructions, march towards Xiapi!"

"promise!"

*****************
Sure enough, as Yuan Shang expected, after Chen Deng sent Yuan Shang and his party a letter of false surrender, he also made a quick move against Soochow. Danyang and other places have made a large-scale move to recruit troops and horses. It is closer to Dazhai of Soochow, and the situation can be easily detected by Soochow scouts.

Sure enough, the mobilization of soldiers and horses in the southeast border county of Xuzhou was quickly passed from the scouts to the commander-in-chief of the Wu army. Sun Quan felt that something was wrong and hurriedly called Zhou Yu and others to discuss.

After Zhou Yu thought about it carefully, he said to Sun Quan: "Marquis Wu, I guess there are only two possibilities for the current movement of Cao Jun's troops and horses. One is that Guo Jia wants to gather troops and go out. Pi fought a decisive battle with our side and Yuan Shang, and second, there was a huge change in the city of Xiapi, and there were changes in the city, so the surrounding elite soldiers were dispatched to protect it."

Sun Quan hurriedly said, "According to Gong Jin's opinion, which of these two possibilities is greater?"

Zhou Yu thought for a while, and said: "Cao Jun's main force is currently fighting Yuan Jun in Zhongzhou, and they are still at a disadvantage. Xuzhou's troops and power are not as good as Yuan Shang's. If Guo Jia wants to survive, he can only defend himself. The possibility of a decisive battle outside the city is not very great, unless he is crazy."

Sun Quan nodded when he heard the words, and said: "This statement is reasonable, Gong Jin, so what should we do in this situation?"

Zhou Yu thought for a while, then smiled and said: "There are changes in Xiapi City, Yuan Jun must be paying more attention than us, I heard that Yuan Jun's spies are all over the world, let's see how Yuan Shang moves, we will not be too late to make a fuss!"

…………

Not long after, the scouts of Soochow brought back news that Yuan Shang prepared his troops and turned left, heading straight for Xiapi City.

When Zhou Yu found out, he sneered and said, "It seems that Xiapi City has indeed changed. Yuan Shang is going to take the opportunity to seize the city! We must not give him a chance, we must take advantage of this opportunity to reap the benefits. Marquis Wu can give me a strong army. Yu is willing to lead the army for Marquis Wu, expel Yuan Shang, and conquer Xiapi!"

"Okay, Gongjin, I believe you!"

………………

Soon after, Yuan Jun's soldiers and horses arrived at the territory of Xiapi. The soldiers and horses were displayed not far from Sishui outside Xiapi City, just waiting for news from Chen Deng.

Sure enough, not long after Yuan Jun arrived, Chen Deng sent a message, asking Yuan Shang to lead his troops to Xiapi City two days later. The city raised fire as a sign, and Chen Deng opened the city gate to welcome Yuan Jun into the city!

And it was at this time that Zhou Yu led a partial division that secretly lurked near the border of Xiapi. They did not dare to go too deep, lest they arouse the suspicion of both Yuan Jun and Xiapi Cao Jun.

Yuan Jun finally took action when Chen Deng agreed, and the Soochow Army also started to march because they heard about Yuan Shang's movements.
