The scouts told Lu Bu; who was then in Xuzhou; whither he had gone to start an expedition to save Xiaopei。 He left the protection of Xuzhou to Chen Gui and set out with Chen Deng。

As Chen Deng was starting; Chen Gui said to him; 〃Remember the words of Cao Cao; that the business of the east is in our hands。 Now is our moment; for Lu Bu is about to suffer defeat。〃

〃Father; I can look after the outside。 But when Lu Bu returns beaten; you must arrange with Mi Zhu to keep him out of the city。 I shall find a means of escape;〃 said Chen Deng。

〃His family is here; and he has many friends。 How about them?〃

〃I also have a scheme to settle them。〃

Then Chen Deng went to see Lu Bu; to whom he said; 〃Xuzhou is surrounded; and this city will be fiercely attacked。 We ought to provide for possible retreat; and I advise storing grain and money in Xiapi。 We could retreat there if the day went adversely。 Why not see about this in good time?〃

〃Your words are indeed wise。 I will also send my wives and little ones thither;〃 said Lu Bu。

The family left under escort of Wei Xu and Song Xian; and with them was sent much grain and treasures and coins。

And then the soldiers marched to the relief of the pass。 About half way there Chen Deng said; 〃Let me go first to reconnoiter so that you; my lord; may advance with confidence。〃

Thus Chen Deng parted pany with his chief and preceded him to the pass where he was received by Chen Gong。

Chen Deng said; 〃The General greatly wonders why you do not advance。 He is going to inquire into it。〃

〃The enemy is in great force; and we cannot be too careful;〃 said Chen Gong。 〃We are holding the pass; and you should persuade our master to take steps to guard Xiaopei。〃

Chen Deng said; 〃Your words are true。〃

That evening he went up to the heights from which he could see Cao Caos army; which was quite close to the pass。 Then he wrote three notes; tied them to arrows; and shot them into Cao Caos camp。

Next day he left and hastened back to Lu Bu and said; 〃Those bandits are about to give up the pass to the enemy; but I have left Chen Gong to hold it。 You had better make an attack tonight and hold him。〃

〃Had it not been for you; the pass would have been lost;〃 said Lu Bu。

Then he sent Chen Deng back to arrange a fire signal with Chen Gong for simultaneous action。

So Chen Deng returned to Chen Gong to whom he said; 〃Cao Caos troops have found a secret way through the pass; and I fear Xuzhou is already lost。 You ought to go back at once。〃

At this the pass was abandoned; and Chen Gong began to retreat。 Then Chen Deng gave the prearranged signal。

Lu Bu saw the fire and advanced in the darkness to the relief of the pass。 Presently he met Chen Gongs army; and as neither recognized the other in the darkness; a fierce battle ensued。 Nor was the trick discovered till daylight came。

While these things were going on; Cao Cao had noted the signal and advanced as fast as possible。 The bandits; who alone remained to hold the pass; were easily driven out and scattered in all directions。

When daylight came and the trick was discovered; Lu Bu and Chen Gong set off together for Xuzhou。 But when they arrived and summoned the gate; instead of opening the doors; the guards on the wall saluted them with a thick flight of arrows。

At the same time Mi Zhu appeared on the defense tower and shouted; 〃You stole our masters city; and now we are going to give it back to him。 You will not enter here again!〃

〃Where is Chen Gui?〃 cried Lu Bu; angrily。

〃We have slain him!〃 was the reply。

〃Where is Chen Deng?〃 said Lu Bu turning to Chen Gong。

〃Do you still hold to your delusion; General; that you ask where this specious rogue is?〃

Lu Bu bade them search through all the ranks; but Chen Deng was not to be found。 Then they decided to go to Xiaopei。 But ere they had got half way there; suddenly appeared the troops under the mand of Gao Shun and Zhang Liao。

They said; 〃Chen Deng came to us saying you; General; was surrounded and wanted help; so we came at once。〃

〃Another trick of that false rogue!〃 said Lu Bu。 〃Surely he shall die for this。〃

They went with all speed to Xiaopei; only to see as they drew near; the ensigns of the enemy displayed all along the walls; for the city had been taken by Cao Ren。

While Lu Bu stood at the foot of the rampart reviling the traitor; Chen Deng himself appeared on the wall and pointing to Lu Bu cried; 〃Did you think that I; a minister of the dynasty; would serve a rebel like you?〃

Lu Bu in his wrath was about to make a desperate
