Chapter 294 Is this your last words? (Thanks to Xuwy and Brother Malandu for their monthly ticket support~)

Upon hearing that the enemy leading the reinforcements was Zhou Yu, Chen Deng's face changed instantly:
"It turns out that Zhou Yu came in person. No wonder he was able to see through my plan..."

Xu Chu, who was standing by, only heard the other party calling him a "fat pig" and was immediately furious:

"You are bullying me too much! Soldiers, listen to my orders, chase down the enemy and destroy them before they escape!"

Hearing this, Chen Deng hurriedly dissuaded him:

"General! You must not pursue us any further!
"The enemy is deliberately provoking us to pursue them. They must have set an ambush along the way..."

Before Chen Deng could finish his words, Xu Chu yelled at him:

"Get out of my way! How can I let the enemy humiliate me?
"What's more, the enemy camp and our camp are only ten miles apart, how could there be an ambush?!

"You leave 5,000 soldiers in the camp to put out the fire, and I will lead the rest of the army to pursue!"

After saying this, Xu Chu, regardless of what Chen Deng said, led 15,000 soldiers and horses to attack Zhou Yu's army.

When Zhou Yu saw the enemy rushing towards him, he turned around and fled towards his own camp without hesitation.

Seeing that Xu Chu refused to listen to his advice, Chen Deng could only sigh helplessly and secretly pray that he would come back alive.

However, just as Xu Chu's army was gradually moving away to the south.

Chen Deng, who was leading his men to put out the fire, did not notice at all that an army of more than 10,000 people appeared silently on the hillside east of the camp.

The leader was none other than Xun Zheng, a general under Hou Cheng!
Seeing Xu Chu's army gradually moving away, Xun Zheng said nothing and immediately led an army of 10,000 to attack Chen Deng's camp!
Chen Deng in the camp suddenly heard earth-shaking shouts of killing. His face changed drastically and he hurriedly led his men to meet the enemy.

However, facing an enemy twice as large as himself.

The soldiers on Chen Deng's side were already in a panic, and due to the huge numerical disadvantage, they were killed without any power to resist!
Chen Deng hurriedly mounted his horse and tried to escape.

However, at this time, Xun Zheng had already rushed behind him, put the lasso in his hand accurately on Chen Deng, and pulled him off the horse!
Then the surrounding soldiers rushed forward and tied Chen Deng up.

After Chen Deng was captured, his 5,000 men fled in panic.

Xun Zheng led his men in another massive killing spree, killing nearly two thousand enemy soldiers and capturing nearly two thousand. The remaining less than one thousand men all escaped.

Afterwards, Xun Zheng drove these captives and escorted Chen Deng straight towards their own camp!

the other side.

Xu Chu led an army of 10,000 to pursue Zhou Yu, but failed to catch up with him for a long time. He felt inexplicably uneasy.

At this moment, the scouts in the rear suddenly reported anxiously:
"General! The rear camp was stolen by the enemy!!

"what?!"

Xu Chu reined in his horse in astonishment, his lips trembling uncontrollably with extreme anger:
"Didn't that idiot Chen Deng have 5,000 soldiers? How could the enemy have stolen his camp?!"

The scout replied in panic:

"A total of 10,000 enemy troops have circled around the flank of the camp.

"After you led the army away, you immediately launched a surprise attack on the soldiers in the camp who were putting out the fire!

"Military Advisor Chen has been captured by the enemy, and the rest of the soldiers are either dead or have fled... Now the enemy is heading towards us!"

As they were talking, Zhou Yu's army, which had just been pursued, suddenly joined up with the soldiers in their own camp.

A total of seven thousand people turned back and attacked Xu Chu's army!

Deputy General Wang Kuang, once one of the eighteen princes, now serves under Liu Bei due to his declining military strength.

At this moment, he urged Xu Chu:

"General Xu, Zhou Yu is counterattacking right now, and the army behind us is also attacking us from both sides.

"If we confront them head-on, our army will be trapped from both sides and will surely be defeated!

"If you are not injured, you can still fight, but now it is best to retreat eastward to Chen State..."

Xu Chu covered his chest which was aching from anger, knowing that he did not have strong fighting ability at the moment.

He could only roar angrily and then lead his men to break out to the east!

The army led by Xun Zheng and Zhou Yu that arrived only managed to rob and kill some of the rear soldiers.

Zhou Yu led the army in a symbolic pursuit for a distance, and then led the victorious army back to the camp.

A total of 17,000 people were dispatched this time, with less than 1,000 casualties, but nearly 3,000 people were captured!
The most important thing is that they successfully forced Xu Chu's army to retreat and captured Chen Deng alive!
In the camp.

Zhou Yu ordered his men to push Chen Deng forward in front of the spirit tablets of Hou Cheng and Song Xian.

Zhou Yu held three incense sticks in both hands and bowed solemnly to the spirit tablet:
"Gongjin was incompetent and failed to capture the real murderer." But the accomplice Chen Deng has been captured by our army.

"Today, we use the blood of this traitor to pay tribute to the souls of the two generals in heaven!"

After saying that, Zhou Yu inserted the three incense sticks in his hand into the incense burner.

Then he suddenly drew out the sword from his waist and faced Chen Deng who was kneeling on the ground behind him.

Chen Deng knew that he could not escape death, so he showed no fear. Instead, he sneered at Zhou Yu:

"It's just two idiots who died. You're an outsider, why do you have to act so solemnly?"

Zhou Yu was naturally not affected by Chen Deng's words, and just asked coldly:

"Are these your last words?"

Chen Deng turned his head away, looking disdainful:

"Kill if you want to, why bother talking!"

Seeing this, Zhou Yu said no more and stabbed Chen Deng's heart with his sword.

Then he slowly turned the hilt of the sword and watched Chen Deng die slowly with a distorted and painful expression...

When Chen Deng was completely out of breath, Zhou Yu drew his sword and let out a long sigh:

"Someone, drag his body out and feed it to the dogs!"

The soldiers under Zhou Yu felt quite relieved by his cruelty!
This traitor who designed the death of their leader would be too easy for them to kill him.

After Zhou Yu killed Chen Deng, he ordered his men to withdraw from the camp and entered Yanling City that night.

When Li Yan, the defender of Yanling City, saw Zhou Yu, he finally put his mind at ease after being worried for days.

As expected, compared to defending the city, transporting food is more suitable for him...

However, Zhou Yu praised him so highly that Li Yan felt a little embarrassed.

……

Jingzhao County, Chang'an City.

The young emperor Liu Xie was leaning against the dragon throne with a dejected look on his face.

On the table in front of him were two reports of defeat and a letter from Sun Ce.

I thought that if I could live my life again, I would be able to defeat the powerful enemies and rebuild the Han Dynasty!
But he didn't expect that Cao Cao, the powerful enemy in his previous life, was no longer powerful, but a more terrifying Lu Bu emerged!

Is it possible that the hundreds of years of national destiny of the Han Dynasty is destined to decline in his hands...

Si Tu Wang Yun, who was standing nearby, saw the little emperor, who was so high-spirited before, become like this.

He sighed secretly and hurried forward to comfort her:

"Your Majesty, victory and defeat are common in war.

“The reason for this defeat was not only because the enemy was too strong, but also because Liu Bei’s army did not fight with all their strength. I wonder what their plan was.

"In my opinion, this uncle Liu may also have evil intentions!"

Liu Xie was not surprised at all to hear Wang Yun say this.

How could he not know who Liu Bei was?

The other party does have great ambitions, but he is also quite loyal to the Han Dynasty.

If Liu Bei had not been loyal in his previous life, this puppet emperor would have lost his spiritual support long ago.

He has always hoped that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang could succeed in their Northern Expedition and restore the Han Dynasty.

Even if that big man is no longer his big man...

However, the current Liu Bei gave him a strange feeling.

It was as if an invisible hand was controlling Liu Bei.

Constantly fueling Liu Bei's ambitions and weakening his loyalty to the Han Dynasty...

Looking back at the historical line of the previous life, it stands to reason that Zhuge Liang has not yet come out of seclusion.

But now he is helping Liu Bei...

If his guess was correct, the current Zhuge Liang should be a reborn person like him!
