Liu Jun camp, Zhongjun tent

"Military advisor, as you expected, things have changed in Shouchun City..."

Liu Bei said with emotion as he looked at the secret letter in his hand.

The secret letter was written by Ji Ling, a confidant sent by Ji Ling, who sneaked out of the city to the camp and presented it to Liu Bei.

Ji Ling declared in the letter that Chen Gong had lost all his people, and Yuan Shu

's old troops in the city were full of complaints against him. As an old general of Yuan Shu, he had no choice but to surrender to Lu Bu, and he was even more forced to submit to Chen Gong because of the situation.

Now he has met Liu Bei. Deng Mu's plan of flooding and attacking people's hearts was just to cause civil strife in Shouchun.

Ji Ling's letter, It was in line with Deng Mu's prediction.

The hope of breaking the city was just around the corner. How could Liu Bei not be overjoyed?

"Military advisor, with Ji Ling's submission, it's easy to defeat Shouchun!"

Liu Bei's face lit up with excitement.

Deng Mu smiled lightly, but he didn't mean it:

"Ji Ling surrenders, and the Lord will naturally accept it"

"However, Mu guessed that Chen Gong was probably preparing to jump over the wall and would not sit still and wait for death."

Liu Bei was startled.

"Chen Gong is the most adaptable person."

"When Yanzhou was defeated, he decisively fled his hometown and followed Lu Bu to Xuzhou."

"When Xuzhou fell, he fled to Huainan with Lu Bu and took refuge with Yuan Shu."

"Shouchun City is now in a state of turmoil, people are confused, and its fall is a foregone conclusion."

"With Chen Gong's wisdom, how could he not see the inevitable outcome?"

"Does the lord think that he will still stick to Shouchun, waiting to be betrayed by Ji Ling and others, and be captured alive by the lord breaking the city?"

After this reminder, Liu Bei suddenly realized

"What the military advisor meant was that Chen Gong might abandon the city and break out of the siege?"

Deng Mu nodded slightly.

Liu Bei frowned slightly, stroked his thin beard and nodded:

"Ziyu, you are right. Chen Gong will not die trapped in Shouchun. Escape is his only choice."

"In the opinion of the military strategist, where would he break out of the encirclement, and who would he defect to?"

Deng Mu stood up and walked to the sand table.

"The south side is all owned by the Lord. If Chen Gong escapes to the south, he is throwing himself into a trap."

"The only other option is to go north and join Cao Cao or Yuan Shao"

"Chen Gong betrayed Cao Cao back then and almost forced Cao Cao to death. He probably had no face and did not dare to vote for Cao Cao again."

"Then, his only choice is to follow Lu Bu's footsteps and join Yuan Shao."

Liu Bei also came to the sand table.

After hearing Deng Mu's analysis, he nodded in agreement and raised his hand to point to the north.

"If he surrenders to Cao Cao, he can only break out to the west toward Shangcai, and then go north to Xudu via Yingshui River."

"If you want to defect to Yuan Shao, you should break out of the encirclement to the north, go north via the Huai River, and go to the nearest Xuzhou to surrender to Yuan Tan first."

"Now that the flood has not receded, it is the perfect time for him to take a boat to Huaihe River"

"Military advisor, we will order the navy to intercept him from the north. What do you think?"

Old Liu looked determined and pointed towards the Huai River to the north.

Deng Mu shook his head and pointed towards the east:

"My lord, Mu thought that we were just going to intercept to the east!"

"East? Liu

Bei looked suspicious and asked in confusion:

"Breaking out to the east was towards Guangling County. If we went north to join Yuan Tan, wouldn't we have made a big circle and covered several times the distance?"

The generals also gathered around and nodded in agreement.

Deng Mu turned his eyes to Pang Tong:"Shi Yuan, what do you think?"

Pang Tong stared at the sand table for a long time, then his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Could it be that the military strategist concluded that Chen Gong would have calculated that we would expect him to break through, and that he would break out from the north and join Yuan Tan nearby?"

"Therefore, he deliberately went in the opposite direction and broke out from the east."

"Head east to Guangling County first. Although we have traveled several times longer, the chance of being intercepted by our army is much smaller."

Pang Tong figured out what Deng Mu meant.

Liu Bei suddenly understood.

Deng Mu nodded slightly, agreed with Pang Tong's calculation, and then said:

"I predict that Chen Gong will not only break out from the east gate, but he will also use Ji Ling to deceive us and induce us to deploy heavy troops to intercept him outside the north gate!"

These words made Liu Bei fall into confusion again.

At this time, the curtain was lifted, and a secret message from Chen Daozhi came in, claiming that it was a secret report sent by Ji Ling's confidant.

Liu Bei quickly took it, opened it and took a closer look.

"Chen Gong has given Ji Ling a secret order to gather at the north gate tomorrow evening, preparing to abandon the city and break out to the north!"

"Ji Ling asked us to be prepared, and tomorrow night we should cooperate with the outside world to capture Chen Gong outside the north gate in one fell swoop!"

Liu Bei's eyes gathered together and he read out the contents of the secret message aloud.

Deng Mu smiled.

"Chen Gong is indeed very resourceful."

"It seems that he expected that Ji Ling had secretly surrendered to the lord, so he used Ji Ling's words to make the lord mistakenly think that he wanted to break out from the north gate!"

Liu Bei suddenly realized it, and he couldn't help but express admiration on his face.

"This Chen Gong is really powerful, he calmly used a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. After admiring

, Liu Bei changed the topic and sneered:

"It's a pity that no matter how clever and clever he is, when he meets the military advisor, he is just a mess!"

As soon as the secret message was received,

Liu Bei returned to his superior position, and his murderous eyes swept around the generals.

"I have sent an order to my general to mobilize heavy troops tomorrow and set up a dragnet to the east of Shouchun."

"In this battle, I will make it difficult for Chen Gong to fly!"

The generals suddenly accepted the order

The next day, it was night.

Shouchun East Gate line.

Nearly four thousand men and horses gathered at the east gate in secret.

Chen Gong stood with his hands behind his hands, his eyes cold and deep, staring at the torrent outside the city illuminated by the lights.

"Chen Biejia, according to your instructions, I have transferred all the troops and horses we can control to the east gate."

Hao Meng panted and climbed up the city tower and held his hand to Chen Gong.

Chen Gong nodded slightly and looked up at the moonlight.

The moon had set in the west and it was about to dawn.

Looking into the distance again, he could only see a few miles around. , the lights of Liuying on several highlands can be vaguely seen.

The rest is a torrent, with no obstruction except a dam.

"Send the order, put down all the bamboo rafts, and use the rafts to break out from the east gate!"

Chen Gong waved his hand and ordered decisively.

Hao Meng was taken aback and said anxiously:

"Chen Biejia, did you make a mistake?"

"Didn't we agree to break out of the siege from the north gate and take the Huai River to the north to join the eldest son of the Yuan family?"

"Why did you suddenly change your mind and want to break out to the east?"(To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

The corners of Chen Gong's mouth raised slightly, with a sarcastic look in his eyes.

"When the situation has reached this point, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Shouchun cannot be defended."

"Breaking through is our wisest choice"

"You and I can see it, and so can Deng Mu."

"I think he will also decide that we will break out from the north and take the Huai River to join Prince Yuan."

"He will definitely order Liu Bei to mobilize his navy to surround us in the north."

"If we break out from the north, we are throwing ourselves into a trap!"

Chen Gongdao solved the mystery.

Hao Meng suddenly realized it and said in surprise:

"Then let's take it by surprise, break out from the east gate, and take the Guangling detour north to seek refuge with Mr. Yuan?"

"In this way, although it takes a long detour, it can ensure a smooth breakout? Chen

Gong sneered and said nothing.

Hao Meng gave a thumbs up and praised:

"In terms of foresight, Chen Bie has to be your master. Okay, I’ll just listen to you."

"I will send someone to inform Ji Ling and ask him to lead his troops to meet at the east gate!"[]

The words trailed off.

Chen Gong waved his hand and stopped Hao Meng.

"That Ji Ling has secretly defected to Liu Bei a long time ago. If you tell him now, won't you let the big-eared thieves know the direction of our breakout!"

Hao Meng was stunned, and his eyes were confused again.

"Ji Ling is an old general of Yuan Shu, and we are not of the same mind."

"I predict that when he saw that the situation was not good, he must have secretly defected to Liu Bei."

"So I deliberately asked him to prepare to break out from the north gate, just to use his words to lure all Liu Bei's troops to set up an ambush outside the north gate."

"In this way, we can escape from the east gate!"

Chen Gong stopped laying the groundwork and simply revealed his plan to Hao Meng.

It was only at this moment that Hao Meng was enlightened and finally came to his senses.

"I see!"

"Chen Biejia, you actually used Ji Ling to come up with a plan for the big-eared bandit to divert the tiger away from the mountain and help us successfully break through from the east gate?"

"This kind of clever plan is really a masterstroke!"

"I think it was Lu Bu who was stubborn and did not listen to Chen Biejia's advice. Otherwise, how could Deng Mu's clever plan be Chen Biejia's opponent?"

Hao Meng looked at Chen Gong like a rainbow, admiring him to the point of admiration.

Chen Gong raised the corner of his mouth, then stroked his beard and sneered:

"Without further ado, let’s break out of the encirclement immediately before the big-eared thieves are aware of it."

Hao Meng no longer had any worries, and immediately urged the soldiers to put down all the bamboo rafts.

Hundreds of crude bamboo rafts were lowered from the city wall with ropes.

Chen Gong and more than 4,000 soldiers all went down to the city to board the rafts.

Following his order, hundreds of bamboo rafts sailed away from Shouchun and headed towards the dam.

After the raft approached the dam, everyone immediately abandoned the raft and climbed over the dam into the flatland. There was a smooth road ahead, and there was no trace of it. Liu Jun encircled the camp to block it.

Four thousand men and horses entered the sea like dragons and ran wildly towards the east toward Guangling County.

The east was white, and the sky was dim in 903.

Chen Gong looked back and saw only the outline of lights in Shouchun City. , has become increasingly blurry.

I think that by this time, Ji Ling should have noticed the abnormality, discovered that he had shed his golden silkworm shell, and reported it to Liu Bei in a hurry. At this time, Liu Bei had probably occupied Shouchun City.

Huainan The land was announced to have changed hands.

But this is no longer important.

What is important is that he has escaped to heaven alive, and no one can stop him from seeking refuge with Yuan Tan.

"I am a famous scholar in Yanzhou and have been a minister for generations. I think that Mr. Yuan will be very respectful to me when he comes."

"With my background and resourcefulness, I will definitely be able to help Yuan Tan capture Xuzhou and then get involved in Huainan."

"Once the Yuan family enters the game, in the face of absolute strength, Liu Bei, even if you have Deng Mu as your assistant, you will not be your opponent..."

Chen Gong's thoughts were surging, and he sketched a beautiful blueprint for himself, with a hint of arrogance quietly flashing in his eyes.

"Boom boom!"

The sound of war drums suddenly sounded, waking him up from his thoughts.

Chen Gong was shocked, and suddenly looked back.

Countless soldiers and horses, and countless flags with the word"Liu" appeared from all directions like divine soldiers descending from the sky. And up

"ambush?"

"Liu...Liu Bei's ambush?"

Chen Gong exclaimed and reined in his horse violently. His face froze in shock for a moment. The four thousand soldiers behind him instantly turned pale with fright and stopped one after another.

Hao Meng was so frightened that his face turned pale and he trembled. The voice shouted:

"Chen Gongtai, didn't you say that Liu Bei fell into your plan of diverting the tiger away from the mountain, and all the troops and horses were transferred to the north of Shouchun to intercept him?"

"What's going on with these ambushes?"

Faced with Hao Meng's question, Chen Gong trembled and was unable to answer.

At this time, he was in a state of confusion and could not understand why such a situation occurred.

Just when they were panicking, Liu Jun had already seen three faces. The encirclement blocked their way to the west.

The general's flag appeared.

Liu Jun's surrounding troops spread out like waves.

Liu Bei rode his horse and held his sword, and slowly appeared in front of the siege.

The horsewhip pointed forward, Liu Bei said coldly:

"Chen Gong, my son's military commander, I had expected that you would use Ji Ling to induce me to block the attack to the north!"

"I have laid this dragnet here and have been waiting for you for a long time"

"Today, you cannot escape even if you have wings!"

There was a buzzing sound in Chen Gong's head, as if he was hit hard with a sap.
