Xiangwu, swim into the official residence

After Ma Dai led the army into the city, he took the Longxi Taishou Mansion as the general's line, and in order to make room for Ma Dai, You Chu moved into the mansion of his younger brother You Jin with his family.

On this day, the sun is high, and the sun is three poles up.

Suddenly, there was the sound of staccato and sonorous footsteps in the streets outside the house, followed by the grinding of clusters of nail leaves.

Above the hall, You Jin glanced at You Chu and said in a low voice: "Brother, Ma Dai is mobilizing the army. ”

You Chu was suspicious, looked at his younger brother, and asked in a low voice, "Is it exposed?" ”

"Impossible!" You Jin shook his head and flatly denied it: "If it is exposed, it will not be as calm as water at night, I am afraid that the Shu army will already come to the door to attack." ”

You Chu was silent for a while, then suddenly sighed, and walked outside with his hands in his hands, "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, let's go, go out and have a look." ”

You Chu took his younger brother to the gate of the mansion, and as soon as he got down the hall, the sergeant dressed as a Shu army was invited to the front by the servant.

When the sergeant saw You Chu, he immediately bowed down and clasped his fists, saluted: "You Fujun, the military situation is like fire, my general asks Fujun and Brother Ling to rush to the general immediately to discuss matters." ”

"Wait a minute, let someone change clothes."

Lenovo street sergeants come and go frequently, Ma Dai sent people to invite him, You Chu guessed that the Shu army must have made a big move, You Chu wanted to delay time at the first time, and found someone to discuss the total.

"The general has a word first-there is no delay, please set off with the villain immediately." Although the sergeant's attitude was respectful, his tone was unyielding.

After hesitating for a moment, You Chu agreed: "Okay, I will go to see General Ma Dai with my younger brother." ”

Taishou Mansion

Ma Dai wore armor and swords, stood in front of the main seat of the hall according to the sword, Jiang Wei, Liang Xu and other generals tied their armor and belts, and lined up in the lobby left and right, without squinting.

What is especially exaggerated is that Jiang Wei, who is standing solemnly on the upper right with his waist crossed, is stubborn and stubborn, and he also holds a majestic iron halberd in his right hand.

As soon as You Chu stepped into the lobby, he found that the atmosphere in the lobby was extremely tense, and there was a sense of slaughter before the big battle.

Slightly arching his hand towards Ma Dai, it was considered a courtesy, You Chu glanced at Ma Dai, who looked very serious, and asked, "I don't know what the general called when he summoned the lower officials?" ”

Ma Dai stiffened his face, did not smile, and said in a loud voice: "You Taishou came just in time, and the general decided to send troops north to Wushi and Chaona counties today to cut off the enemy's food route. You Fujun and Ling Di have been in Longyou for a long time and are familiar with the local geography, so they will deliberately recruit Fu Jun and Ling Di to stay in the army and staff military. ”

"Troops are going to be sent so soon?" You Chu was shocked, but soon he was glad that he had already made arrangements, thinking of this, You Chu hurriedly said: "Lead the horse for the general, and the subordinate is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

"Hahaha~" Ma Dai laughed exaggeratedly a few times, and said loudly: "You Longxi's words are very much in line with my wishes, give the order, the whole army will attack, let's go cut off the stable grain road!" ”

Stability, Jingyang

Wei generals Niu Jin and Dai Ning led 5,000 Wei troops to guard Jingyang City.

Jingyang is a small city, the loess is rammed, the city wall is only two miles around, and there is no moat.

But it is located in the west of Linjing, which is located in the key chong, and is the barrier of Linjing in the west.

Jingyang County Yazhong

Niu Jin, dressed in a black robe, was sitting cross-legged in front of the desk drinking.

After Guo Huai led his army to Anding, he ordered to shrink his troops, abandon the counties, and only defend the two cities of Linjing and Jingyang.

Jingyang City is small, and the criminal prosecution is the internal matter of Jingyang Chief, and he and Dai Ning only shoulder the responsibility of guarding the city. Recently, there was no enemy to attack, so the two of them were very idle, except for going around the city every day, that is, going to the military camp in the city to train soldiers, the rest of the time was drinking and having fun, killing time.

After taking a few sips of wine, Niu Jin reached out and grabbed a handful of fried beans, threw them in his mouth and chewed them crackling.

Suddenly, under the hall, Dai Ning walked wide open.

Niu Jin wondered in his heart, why did he come back so early when he was supposed to be on duty today?

Dai Ning adjusted her sitting posture, lowered her face, and asked in the hall: "The sun hasn't set, why did you go back to the ya?" ”

In terms of qualifications, he is a veteran who has followed Cao Ren since Jian'an, and in terms of status, he is a general who guards Liangzhou, and Dai Ning is no more than a partial general.

Therefore, the two work together and have always respected Niu Jin.

"General, Longxi County has fallen into the hands of thieves!" Dai Ning stepped forward and sighed.

"Ben would have heard of it." Niu Jin nodded.

Dai Ning asked again: "Does the general know that the Shu army wants to go to Wushi and Chaona counties from the northwest of Longxi to cut off our army's grain route?" ”

"Cut off my army's food channel?" Niu Jin was taken aback, and immediately couldn't sit still, and asked urgingly: "This matter is very important, where did you get the news?" ”

Dai Ning replied: "Longxi is too guarded by Youchu. ”

Niu Jin's eyes widened in disbelief, and he asked rhetorically, "Hasn't You Chu already descended to Shu?" How could he give us a message? ”

"General, the general knows some news. It is said that the Shu general Ma Dai was threatened by slaughtering the city, and You Chu was forced to surrender to Shu. ”

Niu Jin was suspicious, glanced at Dai Ning, and said uncertainly: "In this way, the information from You Chu is reliable?" ”

Dai Ning persuaded: "It's better to believe that it is there than to believe that it is not." ”

"Hmm." Niu Jin nodded, Guo Huai collected all the grain in Anding County to Linjing, Jingyang City did not have too much grain in stock, and the supply of military food needed to be transported from Liangzhou in the north.

If the grain route is cut off, then the Wei army in Jingyang City has only two roads:

Trapped in a lonely city, sit back and wait to die.

Either abandon Jingyang and go elsewhere.

However, Niu Jin has never considered these two paths.

This is not only about responsibility, but also from the confidence of Dawei. Although the situation in Yongliang is difficult and the Shu army has become a big trend, Niu Jin firmly believes that the general trend will eventually reverse.

So Niu Jin immediately ordered Dai Ning and said, "In this way, I will give you 3,000 soldiers and horses, and you can go north to protect Wushi and Chaona, and protect our army's grain road." ”

Dai Ning's face also became serious, and he clenched his fists and said loudly: "Although the general can rest assured, there is a general, and the grain road will be safe!" ”
