On January 18, the third year of Jianning, the weather was still cold, but the Qiang people who came to the capital were on fire in their hearts, because the time to decide the lord of the Qiang people had come.

This time the Han Dynasty was different from the past, in the past, when the envoys left, the party gave a reward, but this time it was on the third day of the early dynasty, the reward came down, the leader was 10,000 yuan, and the warrior was 100 yuan, so that the nine tribes that got Beijing got a small fortune.

Then these Qiang people knew the reason, and it turned out that they were going to use their game for a 'consumer entertainment'.

However, the Qiang people who learned the news were not dissatisfied or disagreed, because they thought that this was a way for the Han to know their strength, not to mention that they could press themselves to win with the reward they received, and once they won, it would be another wealth.

The results of the draw have already come out, they are: Baimaqiang vs. Shenwolf Qiang, Bei Nanqiang vs. Zhong Qiang, Beihe Qiang vs. Wuqiang, when Dang Qiang vs. Le Sister Qiang, and burning He Qiang bye.

As a result, when the results came out on January 15, the time for the battle was sent to the Dahan Royal Bank in various parts of the Sili, which is now the only county in the thirteen states of Dahan that has a bank.

In addition, the transportation is inconvenient at this time, so this 'consumption and entertainment' is mainly in the Sili area.

Because the various Qiang people who participated in the war at this time were all showing their strength, it was Cao Cao, the director of the 'consumption and entertainment' of the Han Royal Bank, who set the odds of the Qiang people to one to one.

But this does not hinder the enthusiasm of those noble sons, this kind of gambling game is a big man, oh no, it is the first time in the world! If you don't participate, how can you be worthy of their title?

In this way, on the 18th of January, the war to decide the lord of the Qiang people began.

In order to facilitate viewing, the Han army directly set up the competition venue outside the city wall of Luoyang West City, and placed two wooden camps about half the height of the city wall on both sides of the city wall, leaving only the opening on the west side as the entrance gate.

Liu Hong sat on the city wall, looking at the layout of the field and couldn't help nodding secretly, because the Qiang people are cavalry battles, the reserved space is huge, and the wooden villages on both sides do not need to be crowded, and about 5,000 people can sit.

Of course, there is a ticket to enter this place to watch, so ordinary people can't see it.

In order to be able to watch from the city wall without having to stand, Liu Hong ordered Dongchang to make a chair, but Liu Hong was really unwilling to promote the chair at this time.

The reason is very simple, the chair is made, and even ordinary people use it, so how can Liu Hong, the king of a country, also sit on this ordinary chair?

In order to highlight the Son of Heaven, what should we do? There is only a dragon chair made of gold, but at this time, Liu Hong is really reluctant to spend this money.

So Liu Hong defined this chair as exclusively for watching 'consumer entertainment'.

At this time, the two hundred warriors of Baima Qiang and Shen Wolf Qiang rode into the field, but on the surface, the two were strong or weak, after all, they were their own elite soldiers.

An iron rider of the Han army rode his horse to the generals of the two Qiang with two wooden sticks, and each of them drew one, one of the two wooden sticks was red at the bottom and the other was black.

The Qiang people who draw black wooden sticks should be in the west, and the red ones in the east.

After setting the direction, the two sides went to war.

There are no tactics, yes, it's just a swarm of charges, but yes, what tactics can be used in a battle of two hundred people? In addition, in order to ensure the safety of Liu Hong and the Han high-level, bows and arrows were not allowed to be used in this battle, so the two sides only fought with knives and knives.

"Kill"

"Ahh

Liu Hong looked at the battle below, and then asked in a low voice to Liu Ju, the captain sitting behind him, "The combat power of the Iron Cavalry may be compared to this?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Ju replied softly, "Back to Your Majesty, the Iron Cavalry can fight against any foreign cavalry of the same number, and the battle can be won. ”

Liu Hong nodded when he heard this, and then stopped talking.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the battle was over, and Baimaqiang wiped out 200 people at the cost of 60 people killed in the battle, which means that the wolf and the lord of the Qiang people are completely lost.

Seeing this result, the leader of the Wolf Qiang gritted his teeth angrily, and his face was bruised, while the leader of the White Horse Qiang laughed loudly and looked very happy.

At this time, the Han army had already begun to clean up the battlefield, and Liu Hong saw this, "Reward the soldiers who died in the battle with the wolf and the qiang for 100 yuan." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The leader of the Wolf Qiang stood up and thanked him, and then said, "The little body is unwell, go forward and retire." ”

After getting Liu Hong's permission, the leader of the Wolf Qiang got up and retired.

I have to say that watching others kill people is not the same feeling as killing people, the crowd on the wooden village on both sides, when the two sides fought fiercely, there was actually applauding, if it wasn't for Liu Hongshang, I'm afraid he would have applauded loudly for his team.

Liu Hong looked at the sky and said, "I'm tired, go back to the palace!" This is the responsibility of the Lieutenant. ”

"No"

Originally, Liu Hong just showed his face this time, so naturally he wouldn't stay here for more at this time.

When Liu Hong had just left, the battle between Bei Nanqiang and Zhong Qiang began, as before, rushing to kill.

The same was true for the next two groups, and the final winners in the second round were Baimaqiang, Zhong Qiang, Wuqiang, Dang Qiang, and the first round bye of Burning He Qiang.

The second round of byes of these five groups was the White Horse Qiang, which made the leader of the White Horse Qiang even more laughing, while the remaining four Qiang people were burning He Qiang against Zhong Qiang, and Wu Qiang was fighting against Qiang. The contest will be held on January 20.

These two days are the time for the Qiang people to rest, but not the time for Cao Cao to rest, although Cao Cao handed over the bets and profits of the winners to his subordinates, but how to calculate the odds of the next battle, no one can help.

Finally, according to the performance of the winning Qiang people on the battlefield, Cao Cao set the odds as five to ten for Baimaqiang, eight to ten for Zhongqiang, six to ten for Wuqiang, nine to ten for Dang Qiang, and ten to ten for burning He Qiang.

After the exchange rate was announced, Cao Cao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, Yuan Shao and Xu You came to Cao Cao.

"Ah Gou, I didn't expect you to become a bank official with a rank of 600 stones, it's really gratifying!" Xu Yu congratulated as soon as he entered the door.

Cao Cao was just about to reply, when he heard a voice say, "Hmph, but an official of 1600 stones, if I want to be a master, I will directly be a thousand stones." ”

As soon as he heard this, Cao Cao looked at the person who came, it turned out to be Yuan Shu, and then Cao Cao smiled and said, "Na Er has to work hard, you must know that at this time, the official who is at the beginning can only be an official with a rank of six hundred stones, and an official who is quite a thousand stones, but he has to work hard." ”

After saying this, Cao Cao laughed, even Xu You and Yuan Shao were the same, but Yuan Shu was stunned when he heard this.

Xu You saw Yuan Shu's expression, and said in surprise, "No! You don't even know this rule? ”

Yuan Shu saw Xu You's surprised appearance, and scolded angrily in his heart, "Hmph, isn't he Yuan Shao's uncle's son!" It's really unfair to let my uncle be the head of the family. ”

At this time, Yuan Shu's biological father Yuan Feng was dismissed by Liu Hong, and the Yuan family was supported by Yuan Kui, plus Yuan Kui had no children, so Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu needed to be valued by Yuan Kui if they wanted to get ahead, and obviously Yuan Kui valued Yuan Cheng's son Yuan Shao more.

This made Yuan Shu very dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to show it.

ps: As mentioned earlier, Yuan Shao is set as Yuan Cheng's son in this book, so the sentence that Yuan Shu said that Yuan Shao was the concubine born to a servant girl will not appear in this book.
