Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

Chapter 284 Chen Deng's Envoy to Zhuo County
While Shan Fu was trying to figure out Li Chen's thoughts, Li Chen's envoy came, who came, Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong came to Zhuo County.

Zhuo County, county government.

"Report to King Qin, Chen Yuanlong from Xuzhou outside the city came to ask for an audience."

When Liu Bei was studying in the county government whether they could hold Zhuojun if Li Chen came to attack, the soldiers defending the city came to report.

Hearing that Chen Deng was coming, Liu Bei and Shan Fu looked at each other, and Shan Fu said, "King of Shu, let's stop guessing. We will know everything after seeing the famous Chen Yuanlong."

"Well, that's right. Since Chen Deng came here at this time, it can be seen that Li Chen has plans, and only Li Chen has plans, so there is something to talk about." Liu Bei nodded and said.

"Mr. Chen, please come in." Liu Bei ordered to the left and right.

After a while, the attendants on the left and right led Chen Deng outside and walked in.Liu Bei looked at Chen Deng, and judging from this person's appearance, it was enough to see that this person was extraordinary.

Liu Bei thought, Chen Deng is only a big housekeeper under Li Chen's command, and there are Liu Bowen and others who make suggestions.It can be seen from this that Li Chen has a lot of talents under his command.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen's name has been honored for a long time." As soon as Chen Deng entered the hall, before Chen Deng could speak, Liu Bei spoke first.

Others say that they have admired each other for a long time, which may mean mutual hypocrisy.However, Liu Bei told Chen Deng that he has admired his name for a long time, and he really has admired his name for a long time.

Because Mi Zhu under Liu Bei's command originally served as officials under Tao Qian along with Chen Deng.At the beginning, Mi Zhu often mentioned Chen Deng in front of Liu Bei, saying that Chen Deng was the unicorn son of Xuzhou, and his talents were far superior to his own.

Mi Zhu had been talking about Chen Deng in Liu Bei's ear all day long, so Liu Bei naturally had a deep impression on Chen Deng.Therefore, when he saw Chen Deng today, Liu Bei showed his love for talent.

Chen Deng didn't take much notice of Liu Bei's love for talent.Why do you say that?Chen Deng is a smart man, and he is extremely good at placing bets.In Chen Deng's view, Liu Bei's only advantage over the other princes is that he has a better reputation.However, without strength, you have a good reputation, so what's the use of him.

"I've met the King of Shu." Chen Deng arched his body slightly, and said calmly.

Liu Bei's hot face was attached to Chen Deng's cold butt.For a while, the atmosphere in the hall was a little awkward.Chen Deng didn't care so much, he was here on behalf of Qin Wang Li Chen.Now that Li Chen is strong and Liu Bei is weak, Chen Deng naturally has nothing to fear.

Chen Deng didn't say anything, not even a few words of simple greetings, and asked straight to the point: "I don't know if the king of Shu knows that the king of Wei Cao Cao and our king of Qin are allies."

"I don't know if the King of Shu knows that this Zhuo County is the main traffic route for the transaction between our King Qin and Cao Cao, the King of Wei."

"Zhuo County is here, Jin King Yuan Shao didn't dare to attack, and Qi King Yuan Shu didn't dare to attack either. Could it be that the King of Shu thought he was stronger than Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu?"

When Chen Deng raised these three questions, it can be said that Liu Bei didn't save any face.Liu Bei was stunned by these three questions, and he didn't know how to answer them for a while.

Shan Fu is Liu Bei's counselor, and he has to help Liu Bei out of the siege at this time.After pondering for a while, Shan Fu faced Chen Deng and said, "Mr. Chen, naturally there is no place that the two armies are fighting. This Zhuo County is the land of Wei, not the land of Qin. Our army is fighting Wei Wang Cao Cao, so naturally we can take it. As for breaking Qin King's way of dealing, we can discuss this matter. Wei King can trade with Qin King, and my Shu King can do the same."

Shan Fu first reasoned with Chen Dengxiao, saying that we are fighting Cao Cao, so we should take his territory, which is reasonable.Also, you said we broke the deal between you and Cao Cao.Can we discuss this matter?What Cao Cao can do, so can our Liu Bei, and there are more tricks.

"Discussion, how to discuss?"

"My King Qin is going to send troops to attack Zhuo County." Chen Deng threatened.

Shan Fu naturally knew that Li Chen was going to send troops to attack Zhuo County, so it was just talk. If Li Chen really wanted to attack Zhuo County, then there was no need for Chen Deng to talk.

At the same time, Shan Fu also understood that the reason why Chen Deng said this was just to take the initiative in the negotiation.However, now Li Chen is strong and Liu Bei is weak.In this kind of negotiation between the strong and the weak, there is not much room for discussion.Therefore, Shan Fu could only follow Chen Deng's words.

"Mr. Chen, this requires Mr. Chen to say a few words in front of the King of Qin. The conscience of heaven and earth, my King of Shu has no malice towards the King of Qin." Shan Fu said to Chen Deng.

Chen Deng nodded and said: "Since I, Chen Deng, have come, I must have convinced His Royal Highness King Qin. Xuzhou is my hometown, Chen Deng, and I don't want any war to happen around Xuzhou. From this point of view, the King of Shu and I, Chen Deng, mean the same thing, and I want to talk about it."

Chen Deng asked Liu Bei, and Shan Fu nodded to Liu Bei at the same time, which means that it is in our interest to be able to talk.

Now that Liu Bei has just occupied Zhuo County, his foothold is not yet stable, and their power is incomparable with Li Chen's.At this time, you can't annoy Li Chen.If not, Li Chen gave up his plan to attack Jiangdong and came to attack them, then they couldn't bear it.

"Talk, talk, of course this king wants to talk." Liu Bei hurriedly responded to Chen Deng.

Liu Bei wanted to talk about it, but Chen Deng didn't expect it.Because the strengths of the two sides are quite unequal, Li Chen now has no less than 30 professional soldiers. You must know that the combat effectiveness of the Qin Army is the best in the world. It has defeated Cao Cao and Yuan Shao one after another. These 30 soldiers beat Yuan Shao, Cao Cao 50 Everything is out of the question.Looking at Liu Bei, he is full of fights and calculations, and there are no more than [-] to [-] soldiers out of the whole nest.

As the saying goes, a weak country has no diplomacy. Under such circumstances, it is not so much a negotiation between the two parties as Chen Deng is raising conditions and Liu Bei is compromising.

Chen Deng nodded, and said to Liu Bei: "There are many more war faction in Xuzhou than the peace faction. When Wen Hou died, the King of Shu contributed a lot. Now Wen Hou's daughter, Lu Lingqi, is my mistress. I, Chen Deng, have spent a lot of energy trying to facilitate this peace talks, I hope the King of Shu will not disappoint Chen Deng's kindness."

What Chen Deng said was to tell Liu Bei that there is only one chance, and you have to grasp it well.If you don’t cherish me as the host of peace, then the next time you come, it will be the group of reckless men who host the battle, holding swords and soldiers to have physical communication with you.

Liu Bei couldn't help but tremble when he heard Chen Deng mention that Lu Bu's daughter had become King Qin Li Chen's woman. Liu Bei said in his heart that he hoped that King Qin's ears would be harder, and that the pillow wind would not be heard.Otherwise, I will die.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, my King of Shu is a man with a sense of propriety." Shan Fu smoothed things over from the side.
