After Xu Maode left, Xue Chong asked Chen Tiandao:

"Do you believe what Xu Maode said?"

Chen Tian frowned and groaned for a moment. Chen Tian is an objective person, calmer than Xue Chong, and Xue Chong trusts him very much:

"Half-believe it, half-believe, what General Xu said is not impossible, but it is also possible that General Xu really surrendered to the enemy and the trap set by Lord Feng. The phoenix lord of the phoenix underworld is scheming, if they really cooperate with the outside, our side can't prevent it, for today's plan, we can only try him. ”

Xue Chong nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "I think so too, without further ado, just tonight." ”

"Yes." Chen Tianying got down.

In the evening, Xu Chun suddenly heard that tonight, he was going to attack the military camp of Fengying Kingdom at night, and he was uneasy. He is a martial artist, and he didn't understand the crooked words in his head, but after thinking about it, he secretly went to see Xu Maode, he thought that since the young master was not treasonous, he just went to talk about the situation and let the young master know that it should be fine.

As soon as Xu Chun's front foot entered, someone reported it to Chen Tian on the back foot, and Chen Tian reported it to Xue Chong, who frowned calmly and said nothing.

At night, Chen Tian led 5,000 men to attack the camp of the Fengying Kingdom at night.

At the same time, Xue Chong went to Xu Chun's house with the wine jar to chat with Xu Chun, and the chat was very awkward, basically the two of them were laughing awkwardly.

Xue Chong felt that Xu Maode was always restless.

An hour and a half later, a small soldier came in and whispered a few words in Xue Chong's ear, which made Xu Maode's heart rise to his throat. When Xue Chong looked at him after hearing this, he panicked, and he only felt that the roots of his hair stood on end.

Both of them are people who live in the military, and the subtle changes can be seen at a point, Xu Maode's panic is because he is worried that Xue Chong will harm him, even if he dies on the battlefield, he hopes that he will die in battle, instead of being labeled as a defector and killed in a daze.

But in Xue Chong's opinion, his panic was completely due to a weak heart.

Xue Chong got up to say goodbye, and Xu Maode sent him off, but Xue Chong refused.

Xue Chong returned to his residence, Chen Tian had just returned from the battle, covered in dust, and his armor had not been removed.

"General, our people haven't attacked yet, and the people of the Feng Ming Kingdom rushed up halfway, obviously prepared."

Xue Chong saw that he was embarrassed, he should have suffered a lot from the people of the Feng Ming Kingdom, so it was no wonder that he was angry.

His gaze fell on a soldier who was following Chen Tian.

"This kid hears it, you, tell the general, what did that soldier cub tell you?" Chen Tian pushed on the back of the little soldier and ordered.

The little soldier trembled in the face of the general, swallowed his saliva, and then said:

"I said to the little soldier cub who was fighting, 'Little lady's cub, Lao Tzu is waiting for you'."

Xue Chong's face turned gloomy.

……

The people of Longxi were worried that they would really encounter an ambush, so they only brought 5,000 people, and they didn't even go to battle, but they just came to test it for a while, and left when they saw it, but they were played hard by the army of Fengying Kingdom, and it was not until Chen Tian's anger was all provoked that they collected their troops and let the people of Longxi go back.

Liu Dong went back triumphantly, Si Chen was sitting at the table discussing the war with Chang Xi and Zheng Shuyu, he stepped forward and gave a deep salute:

"Your Highness's clever calculation, admiration!"

Chang Xi and Zheng Shuyu looked over, and Chang Xi asked with a smile:

"Is Chen Tian thundering?"

"It's not just a thunderstorm!" Liu Dong laughed.

"Tomorrow evening, release the pigeons." Si Chen said to him.

Liu Dong replied loudly "yes", paused, and suddenly asked: "Your Highness, will Xu Maode really do what His Highness calculated, although the Xu family was the prince's party in the past, but then they also changed their masters in time and followed Emperor Longxi, and they have always been loyal." Long Xiguo's spirit of loyalty and martyrdom is very strong, especially the soldiers, and the soldiers of Long Xiguo would rather die than surrender. ”

"Anyone who says, 'I'd rather die than descend' is on a dead end and can't live again, as long as it's better not to die than to live, no one wants to die." Si Chen said, "I'm not trying to persuade him to surrender, I just can help him, if he doesn't need help, I'd rather be killed as a traitor and let him go." It's just that if he really did that, the old department of the Xu family in the city and the old general Xu who was still helping Long Xiguo expand his territory on the Cangqiu country side would not have a good time. To live is to fall, to die is to fall, no matter what, the crime is confirmed, it is really difficult to choose. ”

Everyone squinted at her, this kind of difficult choice was not made by you.

However, her move is indeed cunning and ferocious, after letting Xu Maode go, she is ready to deal with the enemy's sneak attack, it is better for someone to test it, and no one will lose anything if they are tempted.

On the contrary, it was Xue Chong, if he believed it all, he would kill Xu Maode; If he was skeptical, he would still kill Xu Maode, because there was no need to leave himself a hidden danger at this juncture; He didn't believe it at all, it was impossible.

No matter who this matter falls on, it is better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let one go, unless that person has a mind as broad as the sea, or has the wisdom that "even if you really have a trap, I will not be afraid of you".

Xue Chong didn't have either, and he hated Xu Maode in the first place, so he couldn't be merciful to him.

……

Xue Chong is indeed half-skeptical now, a little more convinced than when Xu Maode first came back, but he has not yet reached the point where he can immediately make a decision to kill Xu Maode, after all, killing Xu Maode is not trivial, and he doesn't want to kill the wrong one.

Just as he hesitated, at dusk, the archers suddenly shot down a pigeon over Xu Maode's residence.

In order to prevent enemy carrier pigeons from appearing during the battle, there will be special archers to guard the sky above the city, no matter what bird flies by, as long as they see it, they will be shot. That's how the pigeon was shot.

The pigeon that was shot was a carrier pigeon, and there was a note on the pigeon's foot ring, and the words on the note were simple:

Don't worry, tonight, it's going as planned.

There is no name, no payment, unfamiliar handwriting, this is a letter that only the recipient can understand, the only thing that can be determined is that this carrier pigeon is from the direction of the phoenix country.

If there is a name or a payment, it will make people feel fake, but it doesn't make people anxious. What does "don't worry" mean, yesterday's night raid? What is "according to plan"?

This passage is just right to apply to Xu Maode, it is difficult for Xue Chong to think about him, there is only one possibility in his heart now, that is, Xu Maode wants to cooperate with the enemy. There is no way, even if Xu Maode is innocent, he can't let go of the possibility of Xu Maode defecting to the enemy. He was defeated one after another, and the Phoenix Lord of the Phoenix Kingdom was scheming, so he couldn't take risks.

"General......" Chen Tian tightened his eyebrows.

Xue Chong stood up and said in a deep voice: "Whether it's true or not, Xu Maode can't stay, secretly kill Xu Maode!" ”

"You have to avoid Xu Chun's gang." Chen Tian reminded softly.

"It's nature."
