As Zhao Yun said, the two generals Hao Meng and Wei Xu were unable to resist Zhang Fei, not to mention that there were not many troops in Jiqiu City.

Therefore, only two days later, Gu Rubing received the news that Hao Meng and Wei Xu had fled, that Qiu had been captured by Zhang Fei!

At almost the same time, Lu Bu learned that Jiqiu had been attacked by Zhang Fei's army.

"What?!!"

Inside the camp, Lu Bu suddenly stood up from his seat, looked at the two generals Hao Meng and Wei Xu who were kneeling in the camp with a disgraced look, and said angrily: "Ji Qiu has been captured?"

Hao Meng and Wei Xu lowered their heads, not daring to look at Lu Bu or reply.

"Waste! What a waste!"

Lu Bu glared at Hao Meng and Wei Xu angrily, and ordered with murderous intent: "Even if the hill is broken, how can you two come to see me? Come here, drag them out and kill them!"

Hearing Lu Bu's words, Hao Meng and Wei Xu were shocked and immediately begged for mercy: "There are not enough troops left in Jiqiu, and Zhang Fei led his army to attack in a sneak attack. We can't defend at all. The fault is not mine and my lord, spare your life!"

"According to what you say, if Jiqiu is lost, is it all my fault?"

After hearing what Hao Meng and General Wei Xu said, Lu Bu became even more furious and asked rhetorically.

Hearing Lu Bu's words, Hao Meng and Wei Xu were immediately speechless. Although they did think so in their hearts, if they said this out loud, they would really be disrespecting their own longevity.

"My lord, because Jiqiu's terrain is steep, there are really not many troops left behind. Although Hao Meng and Wei Xu lost Jiqiu, although they were at fault, their crimes will not lead to death."

Zhang Liao cupped his hands and said: "What's more, now that Liu Bei's army is approaching, it's time to use generals. The two generals have been following the lord for a long time and have made many military exploits. It's better to keep them alive and let them take advantage of them later."

At this time, Gao Shun, Cao Bao and other generals also began to plead for Hao Meng and Wei Xu.

Hearing that everyone was begging for Hao Meng and Wei Xu, Lu Bu finally suppressed his anger, but still gritted his teeth and said: "Zhang Fei actually went to attack Jiqiu. I was not aware of it, and I was hit by the big-eared thief. Treachery!"

Until now, when he learned that Jiqiu had been attacked by Zhang Fei, Lu Bu finally figured everything out. The flags in the forest the day before yesterday were probably just a cover to make him mistakenly think that there was an ambush in the forest, and Zhang Fei had not really attacked. That is the hill.

If you directly attack Liu Bei's camp at that time, you will not only be able to figure out the reality of Liu Bei's army, but you will also be able to hit Liu Bei hard in one fell swoop!

And he just fell into Liu Bei's plan!

Thinking again that he thought he had discovered Liu Bei's treacherous plan before, and was even proud of it, Lu Bu suddenly felt ashamed and annoyed, and couldn't help but slap the table in front of him vigorously!

Click!

With a cracking sound, Lu Bu slapped the table in half, and then said angrily: "The big-eared thief is so treacherous, and the big-eared thief and I are at odds with each other!"

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing and Cheng Lian were speechless for a moment.

They flattered Lu Bu before, saying that Lu Bu was as talented as Huaiyin and as wise as Han Xin, but they still heard it.

Lu Bu took a deep breath, and finally managed to suppress the anger in his heart. He glanced at Hao Meng and Wei Xu who were still kneeling in the center of the tent, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "Get up."

"Thank you, Lord!"

Hearing this, Hao Meng and Wei Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief, immediately held up their hands and thanked them, and then stood up.

"My lord, the most urgent task is to think of a strategy to retreat from the enemy!"

Gao Shun had a solemn look on his face, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Now that the Qiu has been lost, if Liu Bei and Zhang Fei attack Kaiyang from two directions, even if we hold on, it will be difficult to hold on for a long time. If we don't think about how to retreat from the enemy, Once Kaiyang is lost, Langya will be completely lost."

Lu Bu calmed down, looked around, and asked, "Do you guys have any good ideas?"

Hearing this, all the generals in the entire camp suddenly fell silent.

Faced with the current situation, they couldn't think of any good solution at the moment. Ji Qiu and Kai Yang formed horns with each other, which also meant that once Ji Qiu failed, Kai Yang would not be able to defend.

Seeing that the generals in the camp fell into silence when they encountered problems, Lu Bu's anger suddenly rose again, and he said angrily: "Speak, you are all generals who have been on the battlefield for a long time, but now you are all mute. Can’t do it?!”

After hearing Lu Bu's words, not only did no one in the entire camp speak, but they became even more silent.

"Everyone says that I have many powerful generals under my command, but there is no one who can make plans with them!"

Seeing this scene, Lu Bu was a little angry and said: "If I can get a wise man to advise me and use my bravery, Liu Bei's turn will be rampant here, and there will be no need to worry about his hegemony!"

Hearing this, all the generals in the camp couldn't help but have a look of shame on their faces, and they all bowed their heads and remained silent.

At this moment, a soldier from outside the camp suddenly walked into the camp, cupped his hands to Lu Bu and said, "My lord, Chen Deng wants to see you!"

"Chen Deng?"

Hearing this, Lu Bu was startled and frowned slightly: "What is he here for?"

After Lu Bu thought for a moment, he waved his hand and said, "That's it, let him in!"

"yes!"

The soldier nodded and immediately turned around and left.

Soon, Chen Deng, who was wearing a curved train, a military crown on his head, and an air of elegance, walked into the camp under the leadership of the soldiers.

After seeing Lu Bu, Chen Deng first glanced around the camp, and then quickly noticed the desk table that Lu Bu had broken. However, his face remained calm and he saluted Lu Bu: "Chen Deng pays homage to my lord."

"Yuanlong, why are you here?" Lu Bu nodded, looked at Chen Deng, and asked.

"Come for the Lord's worries."

Hearing this, Chen Deng immediately raised his hands and spoke.

"Come here for my worries?"

Hearing Chen Deng's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but be startled. He looked at Chen Deng doubtfully and asked, "Yuanlong, how can you say this? How can Yuanlong know my worries?"

"My lord's worries are none other than Liu Bei's."

Chen Deng smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said: "I heard that Jiqiu is missing. Jiqiu is an important place. Once Jiqiu changes, Kaiyang will not be preserved. Therefore, I know that the lord must be worried about the strategy of retreating the enemy, so this time Come here, especially to offer advice to the lord."

"oh?"

After hearing this, Lu Bu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but stand up again, and asked with great surprise: "Yuan Long has a plan to retreat from the enemy?"

"good."

Chen Deng's eyes flickered, nodded, and said.

Hearing Chen Deng's affirmative answer, Lu Bu couldn't wait to ask: "What's Yuan Long's plan? Come quickly!"

All the generals in the camp suddenly turned their attention to Chen Deng, and everyone was extremely curious.

Chen Deng did not show off, and bowed his hand to Lu Bu, and then said: "Liu Bei's new victory will inevitably lead to arrogance. My lord can let out the news that Hao Meng and Wei Xu have been killed because Hao Meng and Wei Xu lost Ji Qiu." .”

"In this case, I wrote a letter to Liu Bei, saying in the letter, 'Marquis Wen is cruel and unkind. It was difficult for me to leave my family fortune, so I surrendered to Marquis Wen's tent. I had no choice but to do it. Now I am willing to surrender to Liu Bei. That is to say, the hill has been lost, the east side of Kaiyang is weak, Marquis Wen is ready to send heavy troops to guard it, and the north side is empty, I am willing to serve as an internal response, so as to lure Liu Bei into the city."

"Then, my lord can secretly send troops to set up an ambush outside Kaiyang City. Once Liu Bei leads his army into the city, Liu Bei will be a turtle in the urn. No matter how cunning and scheming Liu Bei is, he will not be able to escape!"

Every time Chen Deng said a word, Lu Bu's eyes became brighter.

When Chen Deng finished what he said, Lu Bu's eyes shone brightly, and he could no longer conceal his excitement. He immediately said: "Wonderful! Wonderful! What a good plan! Yuanlong is really my son Fangye!"

"My lord, you are too flattering."

Chen Deng raised his hands to Lu Bu without being humble or arrogant, and said.

"Yuanlong is such a talented person, but I didn't realize it before. It's really my fault that Yuanlong's orb was covered in dust. If I could have used Yuanlong early, Liu Bei wouldn't be afraid!"

Lu Bu's face was full of excitement and he said: "If this plan is successful, Yuan Longqian should be the first to take the lead. When it is completed, I will definitely reward you heavily!"

"It is my duty to share the Lord's worries." Chen Deng smiled lightly and said.

Hearing this, a look of emotion appeared on Lu Bu's face.

He knew that he had wrested Xuzhou from the pottery merchants, so he had never been welcomed by officials and nobles such as Chen Deng and Mi Zhu. However, he never thought that at this critical moment, Chen Deng would actually be willing to step forward. Come out and make suggestions for yourself!

For a moment, Lu Bu was even moved and couldn't help but said: "Yuanlong is really loyal to me. From now on, Yuanlong, I will definitely use you again!"

"Thank you, Lord."

Chen Deng spoke immediately.

"Okay, let's act according to this plan. I will immediately spread the word and say that Hao Meng and Wei Xu have been killed."

Lu Bu looked at Chen Deng and said, "Lao Yuanlong is responsible for this letter."

"This is natural."

Chen Deng nodded, his eyes flashed, and he spoke.

"Liu Bei used treacherous tricks to deceive me. Now, I will use Yuan Long's trick to surrender and treat him in his own way!"

A cold light shot out from Lu Bu's starry eyes, and he said: "In this battle, Liu Bei must die without a burial place!"

…………

Soon, the news that Lu Bu had killed Hao Meng and Wei Xu in anger because Jiqiu fell was spread out under Lu Bu's deliberate arrangement, and it was quickly learned by Gu Rubing.

"Lü Bu killed Hao Meng and Wei Xu?"

Gu Rubing couldn't help but be a little stunned when he heard the news.

"Lü Bu himself fell into the trap and did not send troops to support Jiqiu, but he blamed Hao Meng and Wei Xu for the loss of Jiqiu. This is in line with Lu Bu's temperament."

Regarding this news, Xi Zhicai didn't doubt it very much. He nodded and said with a smile.

"Although it is in line with Lu Bu's temperament, isn't Lu Bu afraid of resentment among the soldiers when he acts like this?" Fazheng couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Lü Bu is brave and has no plans. He does things based on his own preferences. In this way, we will be sure to capture Kaiyang!"

Xi Zhicai looked at Gu Rubing, smiled at Gu Rubing and said: "My lord, now, General Zhang has captured Jiqiu and is marching from Jiqiu to Kaiyang. He is already approaching Kaiyang and will arrive tomorrow. .”

"After reuniting with General Zhang, my lord can attack from the south and west together. Under attack from both sides, even if Lu Bu holds on, he won't be able to hold on for long."

Hearing this, Gu Rubing couldn't help but smile.

This time, Zhang Fei's surprise for him could be said to be too big.

If it weren't for Zhang Fei's stratagem, he might have had to confront Lu Bu for who knows how long. As long as Lu Bu was determined to defend, it would be extremely difficult to capture Kaiyang.

But now, Ji Qiu was attacked by Zhang Fei. Although it is still not that simple to capture Kaiyang, nor is it a matter of time, Lu Bu is attacked from both sides. If Langya is used up, his side will definitely have the upper hand.

Moreover, Zhang Fei's famous general points have reached 91 before. If Zhang Fei gets more famous general points in this battle at Jiqiu, Zhang Fei may even be promoted to a famous general!

Gu Rubing can't wait to see the changes in Zhang Fei's attribute panel after he is promoted to a famous general!

At this moment, suddenly, the bodyguard walked into the camp, cupped his hands to Gu Rubing and said, "My lord, there is a man outside the camp who claims to be Chen Deng's servant and says he has a secret letter to present."

"Chen Deng?"

Hearing this, Gu Rubing couldn't help but be startled. After reacting, he immediately said: "Let him in."

"yes!"

The personal guard immediately accepted the order, turned around and left in a hurry.

Soon, Chen Deng's servants, led by his personal guards, came to the camp.

After seeing Gu Rubing, the servant immediately raised his hands and said, "I've seen the envoy before."

"No need to be polite."

Gu Rubing waved his hand, looked at Chen Deng's servant, his eyes flickered, and asked: "Why did Yuan Long send you here?"

"Replying to the envoy, I really don't know. I am only responsible for delivering the message."

The servant shook his head, took out the letter from his arms, and said, "But what I said is all in this letter."

"Send the letter over."

Gu Rubing glanced at the bodyguard and gave an order.

"yes!"

The guard nodded and immediately took the letter from Chen Deng's servant, then stepped forward and handed it to Gu Rubing.

Gu Rubing took the letter from the guard, then opened it and took a look. He quickly read the entire letter, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of surprise in his heart.

Chen Deng, this kid, it has to be you!

What Chen Deng said in the letter was very simple. It was that Lu Bu was cruel and unkind, and was willing to secretly betray himself and become an internal agent. It also stated that Lu Bu was ready to guard the east of Kaiyang, and the north of Kaiyang would be empty by then.

Gu Rubing had no doubts about Chen Deng's letter.

First of all, Mi Heng's appeal had the unnatural effect of making Lu Bufang more likely to rebel. More importantly, Gu Rubing might not be reassured by whoever surrendered, but if Chen Deng surrendered, it must be a true surrender!

After all, in the history of the Three Kingdoms, Chen Deng disliked Lü Bu very much. The reason why he succumbed to Lü Bu's tent was indeed because his family was in Xuzhou and he had no choice but to do so.

Because of this, when he got the chance, Chen Deng secretly surrendered to Cao Cao and became Cao Cao's internal agent. This was also one of the most important reasons that ultimately led to Lu Bu's defeat and his death in Baimen Tower!

Not to mention, now that Lu Bu had lost Ji Qiu, he turned his anger on Hao Meng and Wei Xu and beheaded them both, which chilled the hearts of all the soldiers. Therefore, it is very reasonable for Chen Deng to secretly surrender at this time!
