Note: In Chapter 111: The Madness of Li Dian, I mistakenly included Lv Fan. Lv Fan only helped Sun Ce bring his mother back from Xuzhou to Qu'a, and was mistaken by Tao Qian as a spy for Yuan Shu, leading to Lv Fan being wanted. He did not serve under Tao Qian, and I mistakenly included this in the chapter. The chapter is now locked and cannot be edited, so I will contact the editor to make the necessary changes in a few days. I apologize for the mistake.
Xiapi City
The city is brightly lit, and Tao Qian announced today that the curfew has been lifted, which can be considered as a comfort to the fearful soldiers and civilians in the city. Every household is decorating and celebrating the arrival of the new year. As the governor of Xu Province, Tao Qian is also hosting a banquet for all the civil and military officials and influential families in the governor's mansion, hoping to win their support and stand together against the troops of Cao Cao. He doesn't expect them to go all out, but at least hopes they can contribute in some way.
A rider suddenly galloped by, racing through the streets while shouting, "@@The Cao army has broken through the fortified city! The Cao army has broken through the fortified city!
" Riding the horse on the street, which had been relieved of the curfew on New Year's Eve, attracted the attention of countless people. Hearing the shouts of this cavalry, they couldn't help but feel a sense of fear. Most people knew that the fortified city was the last line of defense before Xuzhou City. This meant that Xuzhou City was about to face an attack.
If Guo Jia were here, he would probably laugh. This cavalry soldier may or may not be a spy from Mingjing Hall within the city of Xiapi. They immediately leaked the news of the city's breach, which actually helped Guo Jia a lot. He didn't have to take action himself.
So, news of the cavalry successfully leading a surprise attack on the city on New Year's Eve had spread throughout the city. Meanwhile, the officials, scholars, and prominent families attending the banquet at the governor's residence in Xu Zhou were all stunned. Even Tao Qian, who couldn't even produce a wine cup, was taken aback. Please note that the "@" symbol in Chinese is used as a way to highlight specific information or to mention someone. It is not typically used in English language text.
"How is this possible! Just a few days ago, Cao Bao claimed that he had successfully halted the attack from Cao's army. But today, at noon, he wrote a letter saying that Cao's army intends to spend the Chinese New Year peacefully, and he requested me to send additional defensive weapons and arrows while the enemy's attack is temporarily suspended!" Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with.
Tang Xia, Chen Gui, who replaced the ailing Chen Jie at the banquet, showed a hint of playful smile. It seemed that everything was within his expectations.
Chen Deng's expression caught the attention of Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, who couldn't help but curse under their breath. Both members of the Chen family were as cunning as foxes. Obviously, Chen Deng had already known in advance that the city of Liang would be captured. Translated:
那名报信的士兵则将破城的经过叙述了一遍，当众人听说徐州军的数十名暗探都探得曹军都喝醉了，无力进攻的时候，不由一愣，那曹军靠谁破城的？
Chen Deng initially found it strange, but after thinking for a while, he realized it. He couldn't help exclaiming, "Cao Cao's army has the Mingjing Hall, and the Mingjing Guards under his command are known for their exceptional intelligence gathering abilities. When it comes to protecting their own camp, they should be like an impenetrable fortress. How could they easily allow dozens of spies to infiltrate the Cao army and gather information during such an important event as the New Year's Eve?"
身为智商在线的谋士，陈登更加佩服郭嘉了，这个人的智谋远胜于他，这是可怕的男人。
众人一愣，是这个道理，他们徐州还没有组建成建制的谍报机构，只是陶谦私下招募了一部分游侠而已，怎么所有人都轻易混入曹营打探到这么重要的事情！
Chen Deng was secretly pondering in his heart. The speed at which Cao's army captured the city was astonishing. They had only predicted the city to be taken within three to five days, but to their surprise, it happened overnight. Guo Jia's unparalleled strategic prowess makes me feel inadequate. It seems that I need to quicken my pace as well. These matters will determine the future of the Chen family in Xiapi.
However, Tao Qian, who understood the reasons behind everything, was so angry that he spit out a mouthful of blood. Everyone was frightened and quickly called for a physician. The banquet was abruptly halted.
————————————————————————————————————
Chen Yuanglong, I won't beat around the bush with you. You are the inside man for the Cao army, right? Mifang, who is straightforward, was pushed forward by his brother Miju to bring up this topic.
Upon hearing this, Chen Deng burst into laughter. "Mizi Fang is indeed quick-witted and speaks his mind. He truly possesses the demeanor of an ancient person, and I greatly admire that. Since you are being so direct, I will also be straightforward. Yes, I have already communicated with Guo Fengxiao, the strategist under Cao Sikong, via letters and have decided to defect to Cao Sikong, allowing Xu Province to return to the emperor's control!"
Mi Zhu squinted his eyes, his gaze fixed on Chen Deng, and his tone was rather unfriendly as he said, "Chen Yuanlong, although we are good friends, aren't you afraid that I will report you to the governor?"
When Chen Deng heard this, he burst into laughter again and patted Mi Zhu's shoulder. "Zi Zhong, enough is enough. Your temperament is gentle, and this fierce expression and tone don't suit you. If you wanted to report me, you would have done it a long time ago instead of coming to my house. Allow me to guess the purpose of your visit – you want to join forces with me to support Cao Sisheng, am I right?"
Mi Zhu was momentarily stunned, and he smiled at Chen Deng. Shaking his head, he said, "Yuanlong, I can't hide anything from you."
Beside them, Mi Fang stopped their laughter and said seriously, "Since we are here, it means we are willing to take a gamble. Allowing Cao Siskin to enter the city can also reduce the bloodshed when Cao's army enters the city."
“Hahaha, did the Cao army ever harm the people of Xuzhou?” Laughter echoed from outside the hall.
“This voice?” Mizi Zhu felt that this voice was very familiar, and he often heard it. "Could it be!"
Chen Deng's face brightened up, "Changwen, you finally arrived! I've been waiting for you!"
Changwen?
"Chen, my colleague!"
A scholar, with an imposing presence and a distinguished appearance, dressed in a gray Confucian robe, came into view of everyone. It was Chen Qun, also known as Chen Changwen, the deputy governor of Xuzhou!
（作者：陈群同学隔了一百二十七章终于再次上场！鼓掌欢迎！
陈群：你丫就是把我忘记了！
作者：怎么会呢，你可是郭嘉的至交好友之一，我怎么会忘了你呢？
Chen Qun: Nonsense, it was clearly your friend who reminded you that Chen Qun only appeared in one chapter and then you remembered that you forgot about me, Chen Qun, who has not made another appearance until now!
Author: The weather is nice today.
Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, the two brothers, couldn't help but be shocked. Chen Qun was the deputy envoy of Xuzhou and the top person under the governor. Although he didn't seem as powerful as generals like Cao Bao who held military power, he was the strategist of Tao Qian! Unexpectedly, even he betrayed Tao Qian!
