Chapter 574: Wang Hao's Death

Polo is undoubtedly the largest collective sport in this era, and its level can even represent the military level of this era to some extent, because in the era of cold weapons, cavalry warfare, and troop formation are all vital skills on the battlefield.

Therefore, the most popular collective sport in today's era has aroused everyone's enthusiasm as soon as it opened, and many owners who opened betting markets have established all the handicaps in just an hour after the draw results came out, and the handicap for the first game was only sold for less than half an hour, and they received hundreds of thousands of betting amounts.

Roughly, there are more people who buy the Royal Polo Team to win, accounting for seventy percent, so the corresponding odds are also lower, but those who live in the North, especially the original Turkic people, will mostly bet on the Anbei Army Polo Team, in addition to having confidence in their riding skills and ball skills, the odds are as high as twice as much, which is also the main reason for attracting them to bet.

"Knock knock, Royals, Knock knock, Royals, Royals, give ······"

"Knock knock, Anbei team, give energy, knock knock, Anbei team, give ······"

The big drums used for performance on the field were directly controlled by the coaches of the two teams, Dugumou and Niu Jinda, each leading their own group of subordinates, while playing the drums, shouting, and their fans, even the people who did not fan any of their teams at all, shouted excitedly with the drums, and at the beginning of the game, the little white ball became the focus of everyone, and the tense and fierce atmosphere of the arena infected all the people.

Each polo team has eighteen people, but on the playing field, only twelve are sent to each team, and six teams are substitutes, and there is no goalkeeper.

The whole game is divided into two games, half an hour each, and the rest time between is only a quarter of an hour, so how to use six substitutes to control the horsepower of the team more reasonably is also an aspect that the coach needs to consider, after all, the horse runs at the fastest speed, and lasts about half an hour at most, and the speed will decrease, and the polo game is not only to compete with the player's ball control skills, but also the main thing is to control the horse's skills, as well as the overall tactics.

In less than three minutes after the start of the game, the Anbei Army's striker Baturu used a lower abdomen interception direction to grab the ball from Huang Tao, the center of the Royal Team who took the lead in serving, and rode all the way, and under the blockage of the three defenders of the Royal Polo Team, he took the ball to less than ten meters in front of the goal.

However, when all the people of the Real Polo Team thought that he was about to shoot and surrounded him, he suddenly passed the ball to the pole of Chen Guang, another striker of the Anbei Army, who was wandering on the side of the goal.

After Chen Guang received the ball, there was no obstacle in front of him, all the way to the door of the ball, and when the Royal team player who had just blocked Baturu turned his horse's head to chase him, it was too late, Chen Guang was less than three meters in front of the goal, swinging the ball, and scored the first goal since the start of the game.

"Oh~······"

The cheers were like a tsunami, ringing on the field, just now Baturu's coherent snatching of the ball, dribbling, ten meters in front of the goal, actually did not shoot, chose to pass the ball to his teammates, so that teammates more steadily guaranteed to score the move, too exciting, exciting, so that everyone has a sense of unexpected joy, soon, Baturu gained a group of his own fans.

"It was actually the Anbei team that scored the first goal, your majesty the emperor, aren't you afraid of losing face?" Hiraclius, who was watching the pitch with binoculars, asked his interpreter, Chen Jun, when the whistle blew and the referee asked the players to return to their positions.

"Hehe, on the sports field, you don't have to distinguish this, Your Majesty just wants to save face, and you can only tell the players to train more and improve their skills when they are off the field, and if they lose on the field, all he can do now is grit his teeth."

With Chen Jun's explanation, Heraclius immediately looked at the edge of the court where Li Shimin was with a telescope, and sure enough, he saw Li Shimin gritting his teeth.

However, he was so angry, not because he lost the first goal, but because he was a little depressed when someone else robbed him of the jackpot, and he encountered something that made him even more angry.

"How daring, did you actually send someone to sneak into the barracks to kill people, and treat me as if I were nothing?"

Li Shimin's tiger eyes stared into the distance for the first time, and he also took care of the direction of Sun Xiangfu, who was watching the football with his daughter-in-law and children.

Captain Qianniu continued, "Your Majesty, these people are all dead soldiers who have been trained for a long time, and when they found that there was no hope of escape, they immediately committed suicide with a knife, very decisively, I am afraid that they are controlled by some strict organizations, and for the safety of our Datang, we must not fail to investigate." ”

Li Shimin nodded with a gloomy face and said, "No matter who is involved, strictly investigate." ”

"No."

The captain of the Qianniu Guard, who was wearing blood-stained armor, received the order, and quickly retreated, he also had the identity of a secret guard, and when he withdrew from the arena, his eyes also glanced at the location where Sun Xiangfu was.

Wang Hao died.

Even Sun Xiangfu, the person who wanted him to die the most, was a little surprised, when Wuyinger ran over to tell him the news, Sun Xiangfu was still stunned, the first thing he thought of was that Wang Xu had made a move, at this moment when everyone's focus was on the sports conference and there was almost no defense in the military camp, it was indeed the best time.

However, Wang Xu's courage was beyond Sun Xiangfu's expectations, and he actually went directly into the barracks.

"Our people witnessed the whole thing?"

"Yes, we have four brothers, monitoring the tent where Wang Hao is being held with binoculars from four angles, and I saw with my own eyes more than eighty dead soldiers dressed as sending vegetables and fruits to the barracks, and suddenly attacked the camp tent guarded by only two teams of Qianniuwei, those people killed all the two teams of Qianniuwei guarding before the Qianniuwei Brigade came, and in the process, Wang Hao in the camp was hacked to death, and later, they were surrounded by the Qianniuwei people, and when they saw that they could not break through, they all chose to wield their knives and kill themselves."

Qianniuwei is a team of ten people, and the two teams are twenty people, with their level of toughness, plus the kind of iron armor equipment that covers the whole body, it is not a simple matter to kill it quickly, although there are more than eighty people who do it, but if it is not a super martial artist, it is impossible to do it.

Seeing that there was no hope of escaping, he decisively chose to commit suicide with a knife, which is obviously the style of the family's great forces to train the dead.

After repeatedly confirming that the people in the intelligence team saw Wang Hao being killed, Sun Xiangfu was actually relieved in his heart, anyway, Wang Hao was already dead, and what the consequences would be, he would have to deal with the past.

"Grandpa, the person in charge of our monitoring has been taken by the secret guards, and they asked their subordinates to come over to inform you of the news, and at the same time, they also asked their subordinates to pass on the news to you, Your Majesty has a strict decree to strictly investigate this case, please be sure to take the initiative to cooperate with the investigation of the secret guards, and take the initiative to report the situation of the subordinate organizations and personnel like me, and then the secret guard commander will personally go to the other courtyard to interrogate you."

After all, he saw blood in the camp where the emperor stayed, and more than 20 thousand Niu Wei died, strictly speaking, this is a major crime that can be condemned as rebellion, and Li Shimin can't say that he doesn't issue a strict investigation.

When Sun Xiangfu heard this, he just nodded and said, "I know, you will sort out the list of all the people under your subordinates, and all the people who can be gathered nearby will be gathered together, cooperate with the investigation of the secret guards, and report to me if there are other things." ”

"No."

Sun Xiangfu originally wanted Zhang Ke to go to Wang Xu to ask about the specific situation, but found that the secret guards began to disarm them directly in the sports field and control them.

"Grandpa, this ······"

"They are also acting on orders, how to cooperate, how to cooperate!"

The people who came to disarm Sun Xiangfu from guarding are actually old acquaintances, Liu Shili, the Xuanjie captain who had been to Lingnan with Wei Shuhuan and Li Gongyan, Sun Xiangfu knew that he had the identity of a secret guard for a long time, and now he has also achieved the position of a guerrilla general, but the official position does not mean anything to a person like him.

"I also asked Young Master Sun to go back to the house directly after the game to wait for the inquiry, and the officials and others were also ordered to do things."

Liu Shili bowed to Sun Xiangfu.

Sun Xiangfu nodded, and then asked, "General Liu, am I the only one who needs to be questioned, or do all the courtiers need it?" ”

"Well, this, at present, it is you and the Duke of Dian that need to be fully interrogated by the secret guards, and as for the other ministers, Your Majesty has no will."

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu's face sank, and Liu Shili didn't dare to say much when he saw this, so he ordered his subordinates a few words, and then retreated on his own.

"Husband, Your Majesty, do you not trust you?" Hongmei asked Sun Xiangfu with a worried face, and Chun Tao on the side also looked at Sun Xiangfu with a worried face.

"It's okay, Wang Hao is just a death row prisoner, Your Majesty won't do anything to me because of this."

These are two pregnant women, Sun Xiangfu naturally didn't want them to worry too much, and after calming them down for a while, he was not in the mood to watch the game, so he went home directly with everyone to see what the so-called secret guard commander wanted to ask himself.

The situation on Shelong's side is completely different from Sun Xiangfu's side, when Liu Shili went to find him, he directly laughed and admitted that he did it, how the emperor wanted to deal with it, he admitted it, but asked the secret guard to give up the pursuit of him directly, this is obviously the rhythm of wanting to take the blame for the real murderer, it can be seen how much Shelong hates Wang Hao, but he is definitely not the real murderer, with his brain, he can't even think of killing more than 20 thousand Niu Wei in the military camp where the emperor stays, what kind of consequences he will have to bear.

After Sun Xiangfu returned to the other courtyard, he stayed in the study and waited for the secret guard commander to come to the door, however, Qu Tuquan did not wait, but Yu Xiuer came back first.

Seeing her face, Sun Xiangfu knew that this level was not easy, fortunately, the kneeling washboard project is not popular now, otherwise, Sun Xiangfu's knees are estimated to be rotten this time.
