Three Kingdoms: I choose to assist Sun Jian

Seeing Jian Yong's firm expression, Liu Bei's flustered heart gradually stabilized.

After a long silence, he just asked:

"Where's the military division?"

Jian Yong hurriedly said:

"The military division is on guard outside in case the enemy suddenly attacks the city."

"Let's go and see!"

20 Liu Bei said, quickly put on his shoes, and walked out of the house with his clothes on.

Seeing this, Jian Yong followed suit.

The two walked out, and not long after, they saw Chen Deng standing behind the battlements, carefully observing the camp below the city.

Haixi City is a city built on the water.

The west of the city is backed by swimming water, and the east is a smooth road, looking at the sea in the distance.

At this time, outside Haixi City, Huang Gai followed Zhang Hong's suggestion and stationed [-] troops under the city.

Set aside the north and south sides, and confront Liu Bei's army on the east wall.

Looking down from the wall, you can see the vast camp of Sun Jian's army, during which a large number of soldiers and horses are patrolling.

"Master, what are you looking at?"

Hearing this sound, Chen Deng turned his head and saw that it was Liu Bei coming, he hurriedly bowed and said:

"Deng has met the lord!"

"No need to be polite!"

Liu Bei listened, stepped forward to the edge of the wall, and looked in the direction Chen Deng was looking at just now.

Seeing this, Chen Deng pointed to the distance and said:

"Look, my lord, the enemy army has been logging for the past few days and has produced a lot of siege equipment!"

Looking in the direction Chen Deng pointed, Liu Bei immediately saw the soldiers working in the enemy's rear battalion.

Looking down from a height, one can see with the naked eye that many ladders, well rails, and even catapults have been piled up in the enemy's rear camp.

Seeing this, Liu Bei frowned and said:

"If the enemy army is like this, they must be attacking the city in the next two days!"

"The small wall of Haixi City is short, how can it be prevented?"

"My lord, this is the enemy's trick!"

Chen Deng said in a deep voice:

"This time, there is also an expert in the army that came to surround us."

"The reason why they are stationed under the city is to let our army see what they have done."

"These siege machines are just messing with our army's morale."

"They besieged but did not attack, and they left two gates in the north and south. In fact, they wanted our army to abandon the city and leave!"

"I estimate that this person probably arranged a large number of ambushes at the north and south gates. As long as our army withdraws from the north and south gates, we will fall into his plan."

"An expert? An expert again?"

Hearing these words, Liu Bei felt his heart sink for a while and said:

"It's not enough to have Bai Liming out of Sun Jian's army, but there are so many hidden masters?"

"Wizards in the world, could it be that all of them have joined Sun Jian's army?"

He thought that after Bai Liming left, there would be peace for a few days.

Unexpectedly, even if Bai Liming was not there, there were still a lot of talents hidden in the enemy army.

Just listening to Chen Deng's narration, he could feel the sophistication and calmness of this counselor in the enemy camp.

Hearing Liu Bei's words, Chen Deng couldn't help but sigh slightly.

He really wanted to tell Liu Bei that so many people came after Bailiming.

It is precisely because of Bailiming that Sun Jian's military can have so many talents!

You know, when Baili Ming voted for Sun Jian, Sun Jian's army didn't even have a counselor, only four generals were by his side.

It was Bai Liming who helped Sun Jian survive the entrepreneurial period.

After surviving the initial entrepreneurial period, Sun Jianjun ushered in vigorous development.

Now occupying the land of three states, how could there be no great talents!

It's just that Bai Liming's brilliance is too dazzling, making people feel that there is only one Bai Liming in Sun Jian's army.

The current situation is just that after Bai Liming left, the counselor in front of him got a chance to perform independently.

However, he couldn't say that outright.

Seeing Liu Bei like this, he simply changed the topic and said:

"Your Majesty, don't worry!"

"Although this person is old-fashioned and has a steady style of planning, he is far easier to deal with than Bai Liming!"

"As long as our army sticks to the city, the enemy will have nothing to do with our army for the time being!"

"But what if the enemy forces attack by force?"

Jian Yong frowned and said:

"If the enemy forces attack by force, with these siege equipment, it will be difficult for our army to hold on!"

"It's okay!"

Chen Deng shook his head and said:

"The tens of thousands of enemy troops are probably not integrated. If they want to attack by force, there must be insufficient manpower for ambush."

"If the city cannot be defended, then we will break through and abandon the city."

"If the enemy forces attack on the basis of ensuring an ambush, we can also attack them head-on."

"Anyway, with his little personality, we can't do anything to him!"

Having said that, after gaining some confidence for Liu Bei, Chen Deng looked at the emaciated Liu Bei again and said:

"My lord, do you want to go to sleep again?"

"I see that your condition is not very good, my lord!"

"No!"

Liu Bei looked at the dark circles around Chen Deng's eyes, shook his head and said:

"Military commander, go to sleep, I will defend the city!"

"Xian and you go to bed too."

"As soon as I close my eyes now, I can see my second and third brothers coming to me for revenge."

"I can't sleep anymore."

"Second brother and third brother"

Hearing this, Chen Deng's face darkened.

And Jian Yong hurriedly asked:

"By the way, military commander, do you think Bai Liming really went to Tan County?"

"Second General received the letter from our army, he should be fine, right?"

He knew that if he wanted to comfort Liu Bei, his words alone were useless.

Liu Bei will believe it only if Chen Deng, the military adviser, speaks in person.

Liu Bei also looked at Chen Deng when he heard the words.

But following the gazes of the two, they saw Chen Deng's face was calm, as if he was struggling with something.

Seeing this, Liu Bei panicked immediately, and hurriedly said:

"Master, speak up!"

"My second brother should be all right?"

"Our messengers have already been sent out, my second brother will be fine!"

Seeing this, Jian Yong also said in a deep voice:

"Military Master, if you have something to say, you should tell it directly!"

"It doesn't make sense to be so bored."

"Lord"

Chen Deng hesitated and said:

"Second General, this time, I'm afraid there will be more bad luck than good luck."

"Sir, what did you say?"

Liu Bei heard this, his eyes turned red and he said:

"You didn't say that before!"

"Didn't you say that as long as our army responds in time, then my second brother will still be saved?"

Jian Yong was also anxious for a while, and hurriedly said:

"Chen Yuanlong, why are you so changeable!"

"Isn't it what you said before that our army will stick to the city, and if the second general sticks to it, there will still be a chance!"

"As a result, now that things are going on, you're saying that the Second General's side is more than good?"

"My lord!"

Chen Deng immediately bowed his head and said in a deep voice:

"Although I, Chen Deng, am not known for my loyalty, I will never deceive the lord other than tricks!"

"When I said it last time, it is true that General Guan still has a chance!"

"It is true that our army cannot march west."

"Because Bailiming was right behind our army at that time!"

"With Cao Bao as a guide, his troops immediately increased to [-] to [-]!"

"If our army wants to run, it will be chased by the enemy cavalry!"

"At that time, relying on our army's thousands of troops, we would definitely die!"

"Similarly, even if someone stops the enemy army for a while, if the lord wants to leave, he will be close to death!"

"At that time, our army really couldn't act rashly!"

"But Bai Liming is definitely not someone who is easy to deal with. Every step he takes, the next three steps are within his calculations."

"If we don't move here, he will definitely turn around and deal with General Guan!"

"Since this person thought of keeping our army away from Tan County, he probably already planned the next steps."

"Even if our army sends a messenger, wouldn't Bai Liming not think of it?"

"He will definitely send an army to intercept, so that our army messenger can't look around!"

"The reason why I say that General Guan is more dangerous than good is because our army sent so many messengers!"

"As long as there is one lucky enough to escape the enemy's interception, then General Guan still has a chance."

"If all of them are intercepted by the enemy, even if Bai Liming's mental calculations are not intentional, General Guan will not be able to escape from Bai Liming's poisonous hands even if he has the ability to reach the sky!"

"If I am half-hearted and want to deceive the lord, then I won't tell the truth!"

"It is precisely because I don't want to deceive the lord that I say such words!"
