Three Kingdoms: The ghost plotter taught Liu Bei to seize Jingzhou first

"Tan Dudu, you misunderstood.

You are grateful for the king's kindness to you, how could you have the intention of betraying him?"

Zhang Pan's tone softened a little.

Changing the subject, he said seriously:

"But I have to remind you that the men of Dachen are all men of steel. We must not be as shameless and weak as the father and son of the Wen family and Jiang Qing, who are willing to be the running dogs of Deng thieves in order to survive."

This remark is obviously a warning to Tan Dao, reminding him not to have the intention of betraying him.

Tan Dao was shocked, and recalled the scene when Wen Tong appeared just now. He suddenly understood something and cursed secretly:

"The thief Deng is really cunning and insidious..."

He then said seriously: "General Zhang, haven't you figured it out yet? The thief Deng sent Wen Tong to persuade me to surrender. It is clearly a strategy of alienation, wanting us to be suspicious of each other.

Have you forgotten how Ji Yu died? We can't fall into the thief Deng's evil plan."

Zhang Pan's eyes changed, his thoughts flew, and finally he suddenly realized and cursed:

"The thief Deng is really insidious, and he actually used this despicable strategy of alienation again!"

Seeing that Zhang Pan finally woke up, Tan Dao breathed a sigh of relief.

The suspicion on Zhang Pan's face gradually disappeared, and he asked:

"Tan Dudu, now the bandits Deng have surrounded Boyang City, how should we defend the city?"

Tan Dao patted the battlements and said with a wry smile:

"If conditions permit, I am willing to defend Boyang to the death.

But do you think we can defend this short and old wall?"

Zhang Pan frowned and fell into deep thought.

Tan Dao pointed to the city and said: "Look at the situation in the city again. We came too hastily and didn't have time to stock up enough food.

The food and grass in the city can only support one month at most. How do you think we should hold on?"

Zhang Pan sighed, with a bit of helplessness and fear between his eyebrows.

"If this continues, Boyang City will indeed be difficult to defend.

Tan Dudu, what are your plans?"

Zhang Pan's tone regained his respect for his superior.

Tan Dao took a deep breath and said, "In my opinion, our best option now is to break out and retreat eastward immediately while Deng thief is still unstable and his food and grass are not exhausted."

Hearing the word "break out", Zhang Pan frowned again:

"But the king's order to us is to defend Boyang. If we break out and retreat, wouldn't it be a violation of the king's order?"

"The king ordered us to defend Boyang at that time because he might not have expected that Deng thief would besiege us with his main force.

With the king's wisdom, he must be able to see that we cannot defend Boyang with our current strength, and he will definitely order us to evacuate in time to preserve the 10,000 fresh troops."

Under Tan Dao's guidance, Zhang Pan gradually got rid of the psychological burden of disobeying military orders.

After halfAt noon, he nodded heavily and said:

"Tan Dudu's words make sense. Whether we break out or hold on, I will listen to you."

In fact, Tan Dao knew that Boyang City could not be defended, but he was unable to express his true thoughts because of Zhang Pan.

After all, Zhang Pan was Chen Ba's confidant. If he insisted on defending Boyang and even disobeyed orders, Tan Dao would really have no choice.

And after Deng Mu implemented the alienation plan just now, Zhang Pan was already suspicious of him. If he insisted on abandoning the city and breaking out, it might increase Zhang Pan's suspicion.

Now that Zhang Pan's doubts have been dispelled through this conversation, and he is determined to break out with him, Tan Dao is naturally relieved.

So he immediately ordered: "If that's the case, then you should quickly inform the soldiers and prepare for our breakout."

Zhang Pan took the order and left, but still looked outside the city with some concerns:

"The governor Deng has set up camps on all sides and surrounded Boyang City. Can he let us break out easily?"

Tan Dao looked at the Han army camp outside the city, and after thinking for a long time, he raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth:

"Deng likes to play tricks, so I will play with him to the fullest.".
