In the dry weather, the cavalry trudged through the yellow sand and dust, and the flags were crackled by the flying sand and stones.

The loess covering the sky also cast a haze over You Chu's heart.

After a few days of marching, through astronomical observations at night, You Chu can now be sure that what Ma Dai said about going to Wushi and cutting off the grain route in Nazhu County is completely bluffing, and the army went directly east after going north for a certain distance.

There is no way to go north to Wushi and to that in a straight line!

Ma Dai's actions at both ends of his words and deeds immediately aroused You Chu's vigilance, and he had a ghost in his heart, like a frightened rabbit, suspicious and suspicious all day long.

As soon as there is a stir, it becomes uneasy.

Even, for the first time in his heart, there was a trace of remorse, for an official, who is not doing it. "The city head changes the king's flag, you sing and I will appear", it doesn't matter who is the son of heaven and who is orthodox, I am the official side.

He regretted it, regretted that he should not have divulged the combat intentions of the Shu army to the Wei army, and regretted that he should not have paid for the lives of the Shanghe family in order to be loyal to Cao Wei.

This kind of remorse finally reached its extreme after You Chu was deprived of his personal freedom, and there were constantly Shu soldiers and soldiers peeping inside outside the account at night, especially after he asked to see Ma Dai and Jiang Wei were unavailable.

The Shu soldier who was in charge of "protecting" him didn't even report to the authorities, so he directly and rudely rejected his request to see him.

From that time on, You Chu suddenly realized that Ma Dai didn't believe that he was sincerely surrendering at all, his generosity and magnanimity were all acting, and he was fooled.

Fell for Ma Dai's anti-intrigue scheme!

After seeing through his plan, You Chu, who knew that he could not escape his doom, suddenly collapsed, and he was in a daze all day without saying a word, his eyes had no brilliance, and he looked like a mourner.

After his younger brother Youjin, who was also in the army, learned that the matter was revealed, he also sighed and cried frequently.

****************

Thirty miles west of Jingyang City, barren slope.

This is a fairly high slope, the top is bare, standing on it, you can see the plains of the flat river under the slope.

The head is the blue sky, the blue sky is like washing, Ma Dai stands on the barren slope of the horse, and looks into the distance with a cool canopy.

Looking beyond the army repaired under the barren slope, all the way to the east, all the way to the east, not far to the east, there is a small city called Jingyang.

"Have you verified the plan of the Jingyang Wei army?" Ma Dai rode on horseback and asked a heroic green-robed young general behind him, who followed on horseback, always half a head behind.

The green-robed young general Jiang Wei bowed slightly, hugged his fists and said: "General Qiyu, the spies have verified that there are only two thousand Wei troops in Jingyang City now!" ”

"Okay." Ma Dai's volume suddenly rose a few points, showing that he was in a good mood, and then said: "Pass my order, the whole army can rush to Jingyang City, quickly solve the battle, Zhao Zhendong besieged the battle of Linjing, but we are still waiting for us!" ”

"However......" As soon as the words changed, Ma Dai's tone suddenly became erratic, he slowly turned his head, and a cold light like a poisonous snake shot out of his eyes, "Before capturing Jingyang, we must first execute the traitor You Chu......

"Let Diao Worm lead people to do it, execute You Chu and You Jin, and then send people back to Xiangwu to kill the three tribes of You Chu." Saying that, Ma Dai sneered, "Those who dare to betray will not be tolerated!" ”

"No." Looking at Ma Dai, for some reason, Jiang Wei's heart was cold, and he immediately bowed down to receive the order, turned the horse's head and left.

The army stopped and rested under the barren slope, and You Chu also dismounted to rest, while raising the water bladder to drink water and eating some dry food to restore his strength.

The younger brother swam in to eat unintentionally, craned his neck to observe his surroundings, and guessed where the two brothers had gone.

From the time they were confined, no one told them anything about the outside world, where they went, what was happening elsewhere.

Suddenly, the younger brother next to him became excited, pulling himself and yelling: "Brother, look, isn't that the Gong Cao Diao worm of this county?" ”

What the? Worms!

Hearing this, You Chu's pupils dilated sharply, and he hurriedly looked into the distance, and when he looked at it, You Chu was stunned.

In the distance, the man who led a group of sergeants, the roe deer-headed rat, wasn't it the Gong Cao Diao worm of Longxi County who was sent to Anding County for help?

Why, why did he appear in the Ma Dai army, could it be that he was captured by Shu County on his way back?

But it doesn't look like he's safe and sound, and his demeanor is calm.

Just when You Chu was entangled in why Diao Worm appeared here, Diao Worm had already walked in front of You Chu.

With a thief's eyebrows and rat-eyed face, with a thief's smile, he leaned in front of You Chu: "Fujun, don't come to harm." ”

You Chu looked at Diao Worm, dumbfounded, shocked and incredible, "Diao Worm, you ......"

"Yes, it's a lowly position."

Diao Worm put his hands behind his back, walked up to You Chu, and looked at You Chu with an evil smile.

slowed down the speed of his speech, and said word by word: "Humble duty, I was ordered to send the prince on the road." ”

Sometimes it takes a long time to realize, and sometimes it only takes a moment.

"You ............" You Chu pointed at Diao Worm, his expression was indignant, but he couldn't speak for a while. He finally understood why the Shu army came so quickly in Xiangwu, and why Ma Dai was so suspicious of himself, it turned out that everything was because of the villain in front of him, because of the betrayal of Diao Worm.

"By the way," Diao Worm arched his hand to the east, with a proud smile on his face, like the smile of a victor. Yesterday's lowly lackey is today's adult, yesterday's adult is today's prisoner, his identity and status have changed, and he controls the life and death of the Shangguan who he needs to look up to in the past, this feeling makes Diao Worm feel an inexplicable pleasure, and he enjoys this feeling very much.

"You Chu, General Ma Dai has no plan to go to Wushi and Chaona counties to cut off the Wei army's grain route, those are just nonsense used to coax you, in order to use your mouth to carry out a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain."

"Got it?" Diao Worm restrained his smile, revealing that ugly face, without the slightest emotion in his eyes, reached out and patted You Chu's cheek, and said in a low voice: "If you understand, go on the road!" ”

With that, Diao Worm took a few steps back and beckoned, and the heavily armed armor soldiers behind him immediately lowered the halberd blade and surrounded them step by step, and they exuded an undisguised murderous intent on their bodies.

You Chu, in Jingyang City, Jia Xu took away 3,000 soldiers and horses, the number of people decreased, and the city suddenly became much empty.
