Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 138 Chen Deng crosses the river to attack Wu County

When Sun Fu crossed the river, it was Chen Deng who received them.

Since Chen Deng served as the prefect of Guangling, he has been committed to building his own small kingdom.The reason why I say this is that Chen Deng's concept of a wealthy family is too strong, and he only wants to stay in Xuzhou.

Chen Deng is a man of noble conduct and a celebrity, and many people admire him.When Tao Qian was in danger, he was reused; when Liu Bei was the shepherd of Xuzhou, he was also willing to listen to his opinions; when Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou, he also reused Chen Deng; Sun Ce crossed the river.

But Chen Deng was not satisfied with these. Not only did he want to defend Jiangbei, he also wanted to cross the river and make contributions.

When Lu Bu was annihilating, Chen Deng's three younger brothers were arrested by Lu Bu, but Chen Deng did not compromise.Later, after Lu Bu was eliminated, although Chen Deng was still the governor of Guangling, he was given the military position of General Fubo.General Fubo was a miscellaneous general, who was considered a high-ranking military officer at this time. You must know that the famous Fubo General Ma Yuan in history was nothing more than a Fubo General after fighting all his life.

Chen Deng's General Fubo is naturally not as rich as Ma Yuan, but his ability is not small.In the fourth year of Jian'an, Sun Ce sent Sun Quan to attack Sheyang. The number of troops was more than ten times that of Chen Deng, but he was still defeated by Chen Deng.Later, Sun Quan made a comeback and was defeated by Chen Deng's suspicion.

Being repeatedly attacked by Sun Ce, Chen Deng naturally would not sit still, and of course he would fight back.So he found a lot of Jiangdong tyrants, gave them seals, and granted them official positions, and these were all true, issued by the court.With this seal and ribbon, these pride can logically gather people to resist the Sun family.

But what Chen Deng didn't expect was that Zhang Yi defeated Sun Quan and seized all the land in Jiangdong within a year of Sun Ce's death.Chen Deng also wanted to go to the river, but he had no chance.Sun Quan was very concerned about the enemies above the river, not only guarding against Gan Ning, but also guarding against Chen Deng.

Chen Deng did not have a large-scale naval force and could not cross the river. He also had no way to mobilize too many troops to cross the river, because he had to guard against threats from Jiujiang County. Zhang Yi even stationed thousands of troops in Jianyang and Quanjiao. The army even put the fierce general Shang and his disciples on the border, so that Chen Deng did not dare to leave Guangling easily.

Since Zhang Yi's rebellion, Chen Deng has always been on his back.He had been in contact with Zhang Yi, and he never thought that Zhang Yi would rebel, but Zhang Yi was beyond his expectations and really rebelled.This made Chen Deng pay special attention to him. He couldn't imagine why a person who was about to rebel could have no flaws.

When Chen Deng investigated Zhang Yi's subordinates, he found that it wasn't that Zhang Yi had no flaws, but that he didn't pay attention.

The people under him are very powerful, whether it is Di Qing, Master Shang, and Wei Wentong, they are all fierce generals, and civil servants such as Li Hongzhang, Lu Su, and Liu Ye are also very powerful.These talented people even voluntarily became Zhang Yi's retainers, and Zhang Yi's charm can be imagined.With so many capable people helping each other, it's impossible for him not to rebel, right?

And because Chen Deng moved the government office to Sheyang, far away from the intrusion of the Sun family, Chen Deng could not move his troops across the river as soon as possible, because Sheyang was hundreds of miles away, which was far less than thirty miles away from Guangling County. .

The arrival of Sun Fu gave Chen Deng a lot of warships and made Chen Deng's heart active. He wanted to take advantage of Zhang Yi's occupation of Jiangdong and attack it, just like Zhang Yi defeated Sun.

But because Zhang Yi has been in Jiangdong, Chen Deng has no chance.So he chose to wait, he knew that Zhang Yi would definitely return to Shouchun, because Zhang Yi's child was about to be born!Sure enough, he waited for the opportunity, Zhang Yi returned to Shouchun, and took away his army, leaving only some people stationed in Jiangdong.

So Chen Deng once again sent people to contact those tyrants and let them rebel again. This time he would send a large army across the river to help them defeat Zhang Yi and bring Jiangdong back under the rule of the imperial court.These tyrants followed the trend and encouraged Shanyue to rebel.

That's why Zhang Yi received the news of the rebellion of many tyrants and Shanyue, which gave Zhang Yi some headaches.He can't sit in Jiangdong all the time, can he?I hope these people in Jiangdong can help me solve these problems.I still lack the ability to govern. Look at Lu Su, Fan Zhongyan, and Zhuge Jin, how well they govern Jiujiang, Lujiang, and Yuzhang?Fan Zhongyan even relied on his personal charm to get Hua Xin to agree to become an official.

In fact, Jiangdong is still a remote place, and these tyrants think that it is their world.

Zhang Yi didn't know yet, but what made him even more troublesome was that Chen Deng had gathered an army in Guangling County and was preparing to cross the river.

Chen Deng has been preparing since Zhang Yi returned to Shouchun.Because Zhang Yi sent Gan Ning before, Chen Deng specially led people to defend along the river, and deployed heavy troops in Guangling County, Yuguo, Tangyi County, and Hailing County.After Gan Ning led the navy back to Ruxukou, Chen Deng did not disband these troops, but stationed them in Guangling County.

And he continued to mobilize the army, until August, he gathered [-] troops, came across the river by boat, and went straight to Dantu.

Dantu Li Jin was stationed at the water village. After seeing Chen Deng's massive invasion, he immediately sent a letter to Li Jing, and then defended Dantu.

Fortunately, the Sun family built Dantu City very well. Although it was not built by Sun Quan later, it is still a strong city.Moreover, there were plenty of supplies inside. When Zhang Yi left, he didn't take much with him. He even helped Li Jin improve the defense of the city and the water village.

Chen Deng was on the warship, feeling the turbulence of the warship, looking at the heavily guarded water fortress in front of him, it was also very uncomfortable!
"Mr. Sun has made a wedding dress for Zhang Yi after several years of work!"

In the water battle, Chen Deng knew that he was no opponent. He immediately ordered his soldiers to land, then surrounded Dantu City, and sent people to the city to persuade him to surrender: "Zhang Yi rebelled against the imperial court. If you don’t want to become a rebel, you can open the city quickly, and it will be easy for you to be a high-ranking official and get rich salary!”

Li Jin stood on the top of the wall and laughed loudly: "Listen, you rats, the evil deeds that Cao Amu did in Yanzhou are beyond conscience, and it is simply wishful thinking for me to serve Cao Aman."

Seeing that he could not persuade him to surrender, Chen Deng ordered people to build siege equipment and prepare to attack the city.

Because he came across the river, Chen Deng could only rebuild the siege equipment.When he was building siege equipment, Li Jing also received a military report from Li Jin in Wu County.

Li Jing found Gu Yong, "Chen Deng crossed the river and committed Dantu. I will go to the rescue. I have ordered Han Shizhong from Haiyan to come and defend Wu County. I will take all the soldiers of Wu County away. In the few days before Han Shizhong arrived , you must guard Wu County well."

"Reassure you!" Gu Yong assured.
