Chapter 1953: Qin Guogong Really Knows How to Play (II)
"Still betting?" Li Daozong couldn't help but take a step back and said, "What tricks do you want to play?" ”
Guo Ye replied with a face full of grievances: "King Jiangxia, don't speak so ugly. Let's make a small bet and enjoy it, laughing and talking about the several cities of Goguryeo, thousands of years later, it is also a good story in the history books. What do you mean by tricks? ”
"You can also say it! Four million, four million! The old man's total family property is only 8 million yuan. Is this a small bet? ”
"Eight million yuan? Doesn't include this batch of Goguryeo belongings? So, you still have 6 million yuan in wealth? ”
"Exactly. Why do you ask this? Li Daozong subconsciously covered his sleeve pocket.
Guo Ye said: "Of course, it's a chance to turn the book around." You see, although there are many Goguryeo cities, after the three cities of Liaodong, Jian'an, and Anshi, north of the Yalu River, there are only two really difficult cities left - the black bone city and the domestic city. ”
"Although the Black Bone City is a Xiongcheng, it is only similar to Jian'an City. Do you want to bet on me in the inner city? ”
"No, no, we just want to bet on Black Bone City with you."
"Are you a fool to me? Jian'an City, you attacked it in one day, and now I bet with you on the Black Bone City, won't I definitely lose? ”
"You can't say that." Guo Yedao: "I think when I went to Anshi City one day, it was because I used a thunderbolt. This time, I bet with you that I don't need to break the city of Jian'an in three days without a thunderbolt. ”
Li Daozong groaned: "You have run out of gunpowder, and there is not enough time to pile up dirt for a mountain, so you don't need thunderbolts anymore." Do you want to persuade the lord of this city to surrender? ”
"Uh...... In fact, I don't even know who the lord of the Black Bone City is. I can assure you that it will never be a persuasion. ”
"If you don't need gunpowder, thunderbolts, and persuasion to surrender, how can you be able to Kewu Bone City in three days?"
"That's Guo's secret. But I don't know if King Jiangxia dares to bet? ”
"This ......" Li Daozong hesitated, he really couldn't think of any way Guo Ye could use to break the city in three days. But Guo Ye's past achievements showed him that this is really possible.
Seeing that Li Daozong was silent, Guo Ye said: "If King Jiangxia doesn't dare to bet, then forget it." These two million pieces of wealth, I will be disrespectful. Come! ”
"In!"
"With such a big jackpot, I can't eat alone. He took out 500,000 yuan of money and gave it to his brothers who participated in the siege. ”
"Yes!"
"Slow!" The soldier turned his head to leave, but Li Daozong hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't be busy, don't be busy." I don't know whose money it is, and what is it? ”
Guo Ye said: "Oh? Could it be that King Jiangxia wants to bet with me? ”
Li Daozong gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I bet with you!" Just bet on it...... Just bet on it...... Two million times! If I win, I will have to pay back the goods. ”
"That's not going to happen, you still have two million dollars in IOUs in my hand. Even if you win, you'll only get that IOU back. Why don't we bet four million dollars? ”
"Hmph, the condition is such a condition, you love to gamble or not, don't gamble to pull down." Li Daozong said fearlessly: "Qin Guogong, don't think that the old man can't see it, you are in control of the victory, so you put forward this bet." The old man may lose at least eighty percent this time. ”
"Then you're still betting with me?"
"Didn't you just say that? There is no gambling to lose. No matter how well planned, how can things go as planned? The old man's bet is that you have to make a bad move this time. ”
Guo Yedao: "In this case, let's ask Your Majesty to call the shots." ”
"As it should be."
The two of them jointly found His Majesty Li Er and told him what they meant.
When Zhenguan Tianzi heard this, he couldn't help frowning.
He said, "Are you treating my Chinese military tent as a city treasure? It's just a gamble once or twice, why don't you still gamble? Thousands of years later, what will you think of me in the history books? What do you think of my Tang court? ”
When Guo Ye heard this, his heart was broken, why didn't I think of this? Gambling once or twice can be regarded as a famous affair and a story through the ages. But if you keep gambling, you will become an indiscriminate gambler.
For example, Qianlong met Xia Yuhe by chance on the shore of Daming Lake, and after that, he gave birth to Ziwei Gege. It's a romantic story.
But if he goes out of the palace every day, he will give birth to countless illegitimate daughters to the folk beauties. Then it can only be regarded as a desolate and unscrupulous king.
He said: "Since Your Majesty doesn't allow it, forget it, anyway, I don't have much confidence, and Weichen retreats." ”
As soon as Li Daozong heard this "no confidence", the fire in his heart burned more and more. He knelt on the ground, his eyes were red and he choked up and said, "Your Majesty, please listen to the old minister." ”
"King Jiangxia, please have something to say."
"Weichen followed His Majesty to Goguryeo, cloaked in firmness and perseverance, risked arrows and stones, and fought in front of the battle, needless to say. Just say that I am so old, with the respect of the king of the county, I sleep in the open air, I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, what is the picture? ”
Guo Ye answered: "Of course, the king of Jiangxia is to report to Jun En, Xia An. Li Shu. ”
"Fart!"
"Huh?"
Only then did Li Daozong notice that he had said the wrong thing, and said, "Ah...... No...... Of course, I want to repay Your Majesty. But in addition, there is a little bit of selfishness, which is to earn non-pension money. Those two million yuan of money, but my lifeline! ”
His Majesty Li Er was amused by him and said, "What do you mean...... I don't allow you to gamble, it's going to kill you? Have you ever wondered what you would do if you lost again? Are you alive or not? ”
Li Daozong gritted his teeth and said: "As the saying goes, there are many times and two, and there are no three times and four times. I don't believe it, he can still win three times in a row. ”
"What if he wins?"
"Then the old minister completely obeyed the Duke of Qin, and he never dared to talk about gambling again."
His Majesty Li Er said helplessly: "Okay, let's not take an example." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After signing the paperwork for the third gambling contract, Guo Ye said: "After six days, the army can go to the Black Bone City." Weichen was brave and begged His Majesty and the King of Jiangxia to watch the battle and cheer for our army. ”
"Okay, just according to what Qin Guogong said. Actually, I'm also very curious, what did you rely on to break through the Black Bone City in three days. ”
……
……
Under the Black Bone City.
Li Daozong was dumbfounded, and said, "Qin Guogong, you rely on this to attack the city?" How can you rely on this siege? ”
"Why can't I rely on this siege?"
"It's mine! My eight-wheeled building car! ”
Guo Yedao: "How do you say this? I think that in Liaodong City, your eight-wheeled building car has been completely destroyed. This eight-wheeled building car was made by the skilled craftsmen in the camp with great difficulty. ”
"That was also invented by the old man with a lot of effort."
"yes, I don't want to erase your credit. After the city is broken, I will take credit for you. ”
Li Daozong was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood, and said: "This king is already a supreme minister, please have a fart?!" The key is money, my two million dollars! Oops, this is killing me......"
His Majesty Li Er also couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "In this way, Qin Guogong, you have been preparing to use the eight-wheeled building car for a long time?" ”
"Your Majesty is wise."
"Then you were in front of me, but you said that you didn't have any faith, so what's the reason?"
Li Daozong's eyes lit up, and he jumped to his feet and said, "Yes! Why? Qin Guogong, you are clearly bullying the king! Your Majesty, can you spare him lightly, and quickly invalidate the gambling contract. ”
Guo Ye Zhenzhen said with words: "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. What Weichen said is not that he has no confidence in the eight-wheeled building car, but that he has no confidence in the ability of the craftsman to imitate the eight-wheeled building car. But today, it seems that it is really better than blue. ”
"How else can you explain that?"
"Could it be that Your Majesty thinks there is something wrong?"
His Majesty Li Er thought about it carefully and said, "You can also justify yourself." ”
"The ...... about the gambling contract"
His Majesty Li Er said helplessly: "King Jiangxia, what should I do, I don't need to teach you anymore, right?" ”
"Okay, isn't it just an IOU, Weichen will write it!"
……
After conquering the Black Bone City, the Tang army was like a bamboo, conquering dozens of cities, and finally surrounded the domestic cities.
The significance of this city to Goguryeo is very significant.
First of all, Goguryeo has the saying that there are three capitals, they are Pyongyang, the central capital, the northern capital, and the southern capital, Seoul.
Now that Seoul has been divided by Yang Wanchun, if there is any mistake in the domestic city, then Goguryeo will become one capital in three capitals, and the country will be destroyed again.
Secondly, the history of this city is incredible. He was originally the capital of Goguryeo, that is, two hundred years ago, Goguryeo talents moved to Pyongyang.
In other words, this is the home of the Goguryeo people. It is like Yan'an and New China, Northeast China and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Mongolia and the Great Yuan. Once lost, the psychological blow to them is very fatal.
Since the city is so important, of course the city is also very strong. It can even be said that it is far beyond Liaodong City.
For this city, even Guo Ye has nothing to do. After besieging the city and trying to attack it a few times, he handed over the contradictions and asked His Majesty Li Er to call the shots.
Inside the tent of the Chinese army.
Li Daozong said with a smile: "Qin Guogong, why is it useless when you encounter a domestic city?" Aren't you very good at breaking the city? Where is your strength to break the city in three days? The ancients said that they bullied the weak and feared the hard, referring to people like you, right? ”
