Meng Shu listened to Wang Mang's cold voice, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, but he didn't dare to speak anyway when the words in his heart came to his mouth.

Say. Wang Mang looked at Meng Shu coldly.

Under the pressure of Wang Mang's gaze, Meng Shu said with sweat on his back: "The Family Alliance intends to have a gambling battle with Your Majesty. ”

"Gamble?" Wang Mang sneered.

He had just come back from Shangyuan Palace, and he had just seen Jin Hua and others who had a gambling fight with him, when he first came to this place, he was not familiar with the place, he had no soldiers, and he had no food on his body, just for a mere 200,000 taels of silver, he could gamble with the palace maid.

But now Wang Mang has millions of soldiers under his command, and there is countless gold and silver on his body, just Meng Xuan, and only seventy-two families of the kingdom, do you really think that you can gamble with me?

Wang Mang sneered and said, "What gives you the illusion that you are really qualified to stand with me and speak?"

As soon as the words fell, the eyes of the ministers of Great Qin fell on Meng Shu at the same time, and the lowest official positions present were all Wenchen and four-rank military ministers, all of whom were masters of their eyes, and at the same time looked at Meng Shu, even if Meng Huo had innate strength and was from a family, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and sat on the ground.

Hahaha!!

The ministers of Great Qin laughed, and Wang Jian came out and said: "Your Majesty, these wilderness people actually dare to talk about conditions with Your Majesty, it is better for the ministers to lead the army to pacify the Kingdom of Yu, and these guys in the province really think that my Great Qin is weak and can be bullied." ”

"Your Majesty, let's give this opportunity to Weichen. Wang Yongji also stood up and said: "The minister has been the secretary of the military department for many years, and he has long wanted to fight a good battle on the battlefield. ”

"Why do you need two adults to make a move, give me 10,000 elite soldiers, and I will set foot in the kingdom of Yu!"

At this moment, Huo Qubing suddenly stood up and spoke, and everyone was quiet at the moment, looking at who was so crazy, and then they saw Huo Quzhi.

In the past three days, Huo Qubing has also become familiar in the army, with the endorsement of Wang Mang and Li Guang, although Huo Qubing looks young, but it has gradually made the generals look up to him, but now he ...... Young people are just too impetuous!

Everyone thought in their hearts, with some hesitation on their faces, how could this make Huo Quai's illness bearable, he was a genius, he led 800 soldiers to chase tens of thousands of opponents all over the grassland of the real man, and immediately looked at everyone unconvinced.

Wang Mang grinned, this Huo Qu's illness is all good, but he is too arrogant, so arrogant, if there is no support from Wang Mang, the emperor, it is estimated that no matter how talented he is, no soldier will be mixed with him, even if he is Wang Mang, unless his brain is broken, he will definitely not follow this neurotic to chase and kill tens of thousands of troops.

Wang Mang believed Huo Quzhi's so-called words that he could bring 10,000 elite soldiers to the Kingdom of Yu, but he did not have elite soldiers who could meet Huo Quzhi's requirements, and if there were, he would not give it to him.

Since the war against the rebels and the Yu army has actually ended, Wang Mang has no chance to let Huo Qubing show what he has learned.

Originally, he was very angry that Meng Shu dared to ask to gamble with him, but now that he thinks about it, this may not be an opportunity.

I always hear people brag about Huo Qu's illness, and now that I have the opportunity, I should really open my eyes, after all, hearing is false, seeing is believing, and I always have to see the level of Huo Qu's illness before I dare to use him.

But Wang Mang was not good at taking back his words, and at this moment, he didn't know what Huo Quzhi was crazy about, so he pointed at Meng Yu and said: "Your Majesty, didn't this kid propose to gamble and fight? ”

Meng Shu just frightened the Great Qin Junchen, he had his pride in his heart, he was originally very dissatisfied with Huo Quai's so-called 10,000 elite soldiers stepping on the country of Qiu, and now he jumped up directly and said: "Good boy, you dare to look down on my ancestral vine armor soldiers of the Kingdom of Qiu, and dare to brag nonsense that the previous elite soldiers killed my 1,000 vine armor soldiers, and my 1,000 vine armor soldiers just stood there and let you kill, and you can't kill them." ”

"I'm laughing to death. Huo Quzhi laughed and said: "You didn't meet me, everyone who dared to brag to me like this back then, now the grass in the tomb has grown a few stubbles." ”

"Oh, isn't this petty temper?" Wang Yongji leaned over to Wang Jian and whispered: "Crazy enough, it has the taste of your youth." ”

"If you are a soldier, you have to be crazy, and if you are not crazy, you will be a soldier. Wang Jian nodded and said: "If this kid really has some ability, coupled with this enthusiasm, he may not have the opportunity to be famous in the world one day, and he is a good seedling." ”

"Do you value it?" said Wang Yongji with a smile.

"It's useless to look at it. Wang Jian shook his head and said: "This kid is His Majesty's person, His Majesty's person, it's better not to move, if you are interested, you can only put it away, who dares to grab a protégé with the Son of Heaven." ”

"The older you get, the smarter you get. Wang Yongji smiled.

Wang Jian nodded, and then felt that this was not right, and always felt that he was not praising him again, but scolding him again, so he thought carefully about what Wang Yongji said.

And Huo Quzhi and Meng Shu quarreled angrily, if the two didn't consider that Wang Mang was in front of them, they would have started to fight directly.

"Your Majesty, the last general is willing to fight with a thousand elite soldiers against a thousand wisteria armor soldiers of this wild man. Huo Quzhi suddenly kowtowed to Wang Mang and said: "The last general is willing to guarantee the head of Xiang Shang, if he can't win this wild man, the last general will cut off this useless head, if he wins this wild man, Your Majesty, the last general will want five thousand rattan armor soldiers to be under his command." ”

"What a big breath!" Meng Shu sneered, looked at Wang Mang and said, "Your Majesty, I want to have a fight with this arrogant boy, ask Your Majesty for permission." ”

"What about your bet?" Huo Quzhi said directly: "I bet on my own head, what are you betting on?"

"I ......" Meng Shu didn't speak, in terms of identity, he is just the son of Meng Shan, the patriarch of the contemporary Meng clan, at most, he can only represent the Meng family, not the seventy-two families, and he can't represent the kingdom of Qiu, he can't take out anything to gamble at all, and the bets originally prepared are obviously not enough.

Gritting his teeth, Meng Shu took out a paper crane from his arms, told the paper crane what was going on here, stretched out his hand and shook it, and the paper crane broke through the air, but after a while, the paper crane returned, muttering in Meng Huo's ear for a while, Meng Huo put away the paper crane with some pain, straightened his back, and said: " Now I have been given the full authority of the seventy-two families, since Daqin is willing to gamble, then my seventy-two family alliance has taken over this gambling fight, the bet is the kingdom of Qiu, whether you win or lose, my kingdom of Qiu will be surrendered to Daqin, but if we win the bet, we want a prince, if you lose, I will send this young general five thousand vine armor soldiers. ”

5,000 vine armor soldiers for a king?

Wang Mang understood what Meng Shu meant, thought about it in his heart, and finally nodded: "Since this is the case, then bet on this, but I want to make it clear, I agree to this gamble, and it can be regarded as giving you a step, if you regret it afterwards, then ......"

Wang Mang made a move, and the 20,000-person phalanx on Wang Mang's left side suddenly unfolded, and countless barrels of fire oil were piled up in the middle of the phalanx.

Meng Shu looked at the countless barrels of fire oil, and his pupils suddenly widened.
