After the Taiping Army's "Tianzun Protector Invincible and Invincible General" Li Jing was killed, this large reinforcement team became a swarm of headless flies, which was chased and beaten by the new army of the protector behind the buttocks. There is only one suitable adjective...... The defeat was like a mountain. When the vast majority of people are in danger and turn around and flee, those who can stand still and raise their weapons to meet the enemy are either saints or fools. Unfortunately, these two types of people are very few of the others, so everyone runs away together and does not give in to each other.

Escaping without unity of command is very frightening, because everyone thinks they are smarter than others, and the strong desire to survive forces them to choose different escape routes, which is called scattering and fleeing. And the result of this was to reduce to zero the chances of a powerful counteroffensive that could have been organized.

Wang Heming led the men and horses who had left the city in advance to escape easily, but a group of stupid deserters rushed towards them, and also brought a large number of pursuers behind them.

Wang Heming calmly raised his big gun and launched a counterattack against the obviously inferior pursuers, which was a golden opportunity to turn the tide of the battle at the end. However, most of his generals are gone! Seeing the panicked friendly troops fleeing past them without looking back, their hearts were filled with anger: why should we go so desperately to cover the escape of these rice buckets? Isn't it just the race to see who runs faster? Come on, the east wind blows the drums of war, who is afraid of whom in today's world! You've been running for a long time, so it's time to stop and take a breath, right? Let's take a look at ours next!

Wang Heming couldn't cry or laugh, obeying the order to stay with him to block the pursuing troops of the headquarters was pitiful, and most of his subordinates were very competitive, and they could be regarded as a long face for him: they had left the original deserters far behind like a gust of wind!

The crisp sound of the weapon striking attracted the attention of the other pursuers, arousing their strong curiosity: when the vast majority of bandits were eager to drop their weapons and flee for their lives without looking back, there were still people who resisted? Go over and check it out! It can be seen that curiosity not only kills cats, but also harms people! The men and horses around Wang Heming were strongly surrounded by pursuing soldiers from all directions.

When Wang Heming, the "mighty general who pierced through Yang Shen's arrow in a hundred steps", was sweating profusely, and after leading his subordinates to fight his way out of the encirclement with great effort, he reluctantly found that the carriage carrying the "generalissimo of the mighty soldiers and horses of our country's mighty heavenly dynasty" Gao Quangao could not be found! I can't take care of so much at the moment, Uncle Gao Quan, Uncle Gaohuang, you can ask for more blessings. Wang Heming gritted his teeth and led his incomplete men to flee.

The news of the disastrous defeat of the Taiping army in front soon spread back to the temporary capital of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the government and the opposition were shocked. Gao Jinbao glared at the little mung bean eye and gritted his teeth, and scolded the three generations of Li Jing and Wang Heming's ancestors in his heart, and the reason why he put Uncle Gao aside for the time being was because he and Gao Jinbao should be the same ancestor.

In the face of the grim situation, Gao Jinbao could no longer sit still, and immediately gathered the military generals of Wenchen to convene an emergency court meeting to discuss strategies to resist the enemy. At the meeting, the delegates made generous speeches, expressing their strong dissatisfaction and indignation at the aggression of the New Army of the Great Qi Protectorate, and tearfully expressing their firm determination to live and die together with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. As for the good strategy to resist the enemy...... The next contestant will be invited to speak.

Seeing that this court meeting was about to end without a problem, Xu Tianshi, the first great teacher in the world, held the ivory wat board in both hands and held it high above his head, bowed down and walked out of class and knelt on the ground, and shouted in his mouth: "Heavenly Father's holy venerable immortals, longevity is boundless, light covers the sun and moon, iQue Eight Desolations, thousands of years, blessings in all directions!" Weichen thought that at this time, the bandits were lucky to win successive battles, and they were arrogant and arrogant. In order to frustrate its spirit, only by pouring the heavenly soldiers and generals of our Heavenly Empire, driven by the Holy Venerable of the Heavenly Father, with the divine power of ten thousand immortals and the holy power of the Heavenly Father, can we recover the lost territory and cleanse the invading enemies in one fell swoop, so that they can be completely wiped out! ”。

When the generals heard this, they nodded their heads again and again, and gave thumbs up, praising this as a foolproof strategy once and for all.

Gao Jinbao was full of spirits and proudly patted the case: "Okay! According to the words of the Heavenly Master, I will pass the decree and gather all the people of my Heavenly Dynasty, gather under the capital in 15 days, and follow this Tianzun to drive the expedition in person! ”。

Xu Tianshi hurriedly raised his head and said: "Heavenly Father Holy Venerable Immortal Mang, longevity is boundless, light covers the sun and moon, fugue eight wildernesses, thousands of years, blessings in all directions!" Enlighten the Heavenly Father, Weichen has already pinched his fingers and calculated, 18 days later is a rare auspicious day of the zodiac, this day of the expedition, will be victorious, and the horse will be successful! This day is also conducive to traveling, suitable for marriage, and it is also a good day for funeral, but it is not suitable to start building a house on that day......".

With the order of the one-eyed thunder god and the Holy Father Tianzun Gao Jinbao, all the people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom moved like a lantern and gathered under the temporary capital in batches. Thirteen days later, the tents of the barracks under the city had stretched for ten miles, and there was a great opportunity to set up a battle with the invading enemy for a life-and-death decisive battle.

"Descending the dragon and subduing the tiger, swallowing mountains and rivers, a hundred battles and a hundred victorious generals" Lai Qingsheng and "a hundred steps through Yang Shen's arrow, a mighty general" Wang Heming are both ranked among the five tiger generals, and they are one of the veterans who followed Gao Jinbao with their bare hands to fight a piece of the world. This man was originally a blacksmith who struck iron, and because he was dissatisfied with the local rich gentry who robbed his wife, he broke into the mansion at night in a fit of rage, and carried a large knife with a ruler wide to chop the rich gentry who was addicted to robbing other people's wives, and since then he has died in the world. Later, he happened to meet Gao Jinbao, who was a fairy wind and deceived everywhere, so he followed him to join Taiping Dao, ending the days of fleeing in panic.

Lai Qingsheng has a short figure, his appearance is not good, but he is kind, even if he is promoted to a general, he has never stood in front of the soldiers, and he always charges forward desperately when he fights, so he is deeply loved by his subordinates. After the establishment of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he felt bored by the leisure and leisurely days, so he developed a great hobby by himself, and stayed up all night enjoying it: gambling money.

After the army was assembled and camped under the city, there were still a few days before the auspicious day of the zodiac, and General Lai was bored and addicted to gambling, so he pulled dozens of subordinates to gamble every night. To say that General Lai's gambling is quite good, no matter whether he wins or loses, he never loses his account, and he has never seen him and anyone in a hurry.

"It's open, four, five, six! Haha, Lao Tzu won again". Lai Qingsheng shouted loudly with a red face, opened his arms excitedly, and swept the broken silver scattered on the table in front of him.

The two black porcelain bowls were clasped together again, and the dice inside spun rapidly with the shaking of the "Bang Bang Bang Bang". With a "snap", the porcelain bowl was heavily buckled on the table, Lai Qingsheng opened his nose, and his eyes stared at the black porcelain bowl with a glow.

The noisy crowd around suddenly became unusually quiet, and someone lightly touched Lai Qingsheng's sleeve. General Lai stared intently at the black porcelain bowls that were tightly interlocked, and waved his hand impatiently: "Damn it, it's time for Lao Tzu to sit in the village!" ”。

The strange thing is that on weekdays, none of these brothers, who are like brothers and sisters, pay attention to him, but they all bow their heads, kneel on the ground in unison, and shout: "Heavenly Father's Holy Venerable Immortal Mang, Boundless Life, Light Covers the Sun and Moon, Wandering Eight Desolations, Thousands of Years, Blessings in All Directions!" ”。

Lai Qingsheng raised his head at this time, and couldn't help but gasp, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

Gao Jinbao, who was wearing a golden blindfold, put his hands behind his back, and the expression on his face was not smiling, and he stood silently at the mouth of the tent at some point. He was followed by Xu Tianshi and several Ouchi guards.

General Lai's legs were weak, and a large amount of sweat was oozing from his forehead, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground with a "poof", and kowtowed again and again: "The last general deserves death!" Ask the Father to punish him. ”

Gao Jinbao uncharacteristically did not blow his beard and stare at him, but walked forward with a smile and said: "The big war is imminent, and it is quite gratifying to see that the brothers can still calmly roll the dice here." This shows that I have the chance to win! ”。

He glanced at the officers and soldiers who were trembling and kneeling on the ground with one eye, and waved his hand: "Let's all be exempted!" ”。

Turning his face, he squinted at the little mung bean eyes again, stared at the two broken porcelain bowls that were buttoned together, and smiled as if talking to himself: "Since he ascended the throne, he has rarely had the opportunity to have fun with his brothers. As he spoke, he took the trouble to roll up the sleeves of the imperial robe.

"General Lai, you and I will gamble a few rounds." Gao Jinbao turned his head again and asked, "Who else likes to bet on two hands, come together?" ”。

All the soldiers frowned and shook their heads one after another, looking like they hated gambling. Seeing this, Gao Jinbao snorted coldly, and did not force it, but said loudly: "Find two more porcelain bowls of the same type, and take three dice and put them in it." General Lai, you and I take turns to sit in the village. ”

Lai Qingsheng stood up stiffly, gritted his teeth and said secretly: It seems that Lao Tzu's life is in danger today! That's it, it's just a pleasure to live when you're dying.

In a strange atmosphere, the gamble between the two officially began.

I don't know how, General Lai's good luck all night seems to have disappeared with the cold sweat that just broke out, Gao Jinbao gambled with him with great interest for half an hour, and the broken silver in front of General Lai arrived in front of Gao Jinbao.

Gao Jinbao suddenly raised his head and smiled: "General Lai, it looks like you have lost everything!" The deity gives you a chance to turn the book, and if you win, all the money will be yours; If you lose, the money is still yours, and I only want your head! ”。

Lai Qingsheng's face turned pale, his breathing became short, he knew that Gao Jinbao was about to reveal his original form, but there was no way back at this time, he gritted his teeth, buckled the porcelain bowl in his hand, closed his eyes and shook desperately. After a while, he suddenly smashed the porcelain bowl on the table and quickly unveiled: two sixes and one five! All the officers and soldiers who were watching were secretly relieved.

Gao Jinbao smiled slightly, skillfully shook the two bowls, and after a while, gently placed them on the table, and gently opened them under the attentive gaze of everyone.

The three dice lie there quietly, the same suit facing up, and it is: three sixes.

General Lai leaned limply back in his chair, his face pale, and he did not say a word.

Gao Jinbao raised his head and pushed the broken silver in front of him towards him, and said coldly: "General Lai, you lost!" The money is yours, and your head is mine. The deity just wants to tell you: ten gambles and nine frauds, and there is a method in it. That's the end of today, my Celestial Empire is the time to employ people, and your head deity will be kept for you for the time being. When you return triumphantly, the deity will teach you some ways to gamble money, covering you big and small, and you can catch it! Don't disappoint the deity. ”

After speaking, in the shocked eyes of everyone, Gao Jinbao led Xu Tianshi and several Ouchi guards away.

Lai Qingsheng rolled over and got up with tears in his eyes, prostrate on the ground, and shouted at Gao Jinbao's back: "Heavenly Father's Holy Venerable Immortal Mang, Boundless Life, Light Covers the Sun and Moon, Wandering Eight Desolations, Thousands of Years, Blessings in All Directions!" The criminal minister thanked the heavenly father for not killing him, and he led his liver and brain to the ground, resisted the enemy with all his might, and formed a grass ring to repay the great grace of the Holy Venerable! ”。
