Chapter 473: The Dust Has Settled
(Thank you for the monthly pass support of xipingfann and cloud high mountain.) Today's ninety-eight monthly passes, only one is missing, and only one is missing to break 100. Brothers, let's see if there is a monthly pass in your hand, and some help Muzi break 100. )——
"Let's accept Qi Guogong's five million gamble, but please bet first." Although Tian Lingzi still had a smile on his face, this smile was obviously stiff.
"It seems that all the people present did not take out the money when they placed bets, right?" Li Jing smiled slightly, "Why, Father-in-law Tian thinks that I, Li Jing, can't come up with five million yuan?" Or do you look down on me Li Jing? ”
Tian Lingzi opened the village to gamble, and almost all the thousands of nobles and officials present bet, but everyone was aristocrats, so the bet did not need to be paid first, only a name was registered, and the bet was written. After all, in this Tang Chang'an City, there is still no one who dares to owe Father-in-law Tian money and not pay it back. Li Jing made a heavy bet of five million at once, and with Tian Lingzi's gaze, it was naturally clear that Li Jing had a great chance of winning after the worst. In other words, if Li Jing really won after the last resort, he would have to pay Li Jing 5 million guan.
It's not that he can't afford to lose, after all, in this betting, thousands of nobles bet, and each person has placed at least dozens or hundreds of bets, or even tens of thousands. He has calculated just now, those nobles have placed more than 10 million bets, according to the ordinary way of betting to open the bank, in fact, when the village is opened, the odds they set have basically ensured that they do not make money, and they have left about one percent of the commission money in the odds. And this time they have a lot of players with a high rate of goals. The nobles placed bets. On the contrary, there are very few winners and losers. So they have at least one and a half to two percent of the profit.
With this profit alone, he can compensate Li Jing for playing this handful. However, Tian Lingzi was blocked by Li Jing and took a bet that he was reluctant to lose and obviously lost, so he was naturally unwilling in his heart.
As soon as Li Jing said this, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Li Yi also heard their words, and at this time, seeing that the two who had finally reconciled had the possibility of a grudge. Hurriedly said: "Gambling, just playing." Small gambling is pleasant, big gambling hurts the body. No one in the world knows that Qi has a way to make money, but the five million bet is still too amazing. In my opinion, if you bet less, you can have 8,000 yuan. ”
Now that the emperor has come forward, Li Jing has no choice but to take a step back.
In the end, Li Jing changed his bet of 1 million to bet on the white team to win, and the odds were changed to 1 to 8,000. If Li Jing wins, Tian Lingzi will pay 800,000 yuan.
"Bell!" A bell rings. The game continues on the field.
The second was the midfield and the decisive one. Now the white team is ahead, and if the white team wins this game again, they don't have to play the third game at all.
The White team currently leads by one goal, and at the beginning of the second game, the most brutal and ferocious side of the polo game is gradually beginning to be revealed. Especially when Tian Lingzi went down to the front hall before the start and personally went to explain a few words to the generals who came on the field, the second game was extremely fierce at the beginning.
In the fierce confrontation, people constantly collided with each other and were injured.
The movements on both sides became more and more brutal, the horses' hooves were horizontal, and the moon staff on both sides was even running towards the opponent more than when they were running towards the ball.
Several people on both sides of the field began to fall off their horses at one point, and even bled profusely and broke their arms.
However, this did not stop the game, and the fierce confrontation is the most exciting and attractive part of polo. The royal relatives, princes and nobles, civil ministers and military generals who watched the game on the court all looked red-faced, and kept getting up and waving their arms and shouting. Especially after Tian Lingzi's opening bet, everyone is now more enthusiastic.
However, if they played seriously, the cooperation of the Shence Army was more tacit, but after they now had the idea of hurting people, they were surprised to find that they were even more inferior. Li Jing's six disciples were still all on the court in the second game, and Li Cunxiao was even more excited on the field after scoring the first game. In addition to rushing and intercepting troubles, he also began to frequently try to score goals.
Wang Yanzhang, Yang Shihou, and Fu Cun also cooperated with Li Cunxiao several times to charge.
These four were originally the worst people in the white team, but now they gave the Shence army a headache. Sending people to defend them, it doesn't work if there are fewer people, and if there are too many people, they will release these powerful players again.
The situation on the field has changed drastically, and it has become that the Shence team is now dealing with the two teams of Xin Yan and Li Cunxiao.
Only halfway through the second game, Li Cunxiao and the four of them went on a rampage, and the defense of the Shence team was like a fishing net, full of loopholes. Although Li Cunxiao missed several shots, it attracted countless sighs and boos on the field. But their style of play, but forced the opponent to send several people to guard them, the result was that Xin Yan, Liu Xun and others were liberated, and after a few exquisite passes, Xin Yan hit three goals in a row again.
The game was still going on, Wang Yanzhang intercepted the ball again, passed the ball to Li Cunxiao's horse, Luo Yuanzhen came to intercept, the two fought fiercely, the war horse directly hit one, a neigh, the two war horses fell together, Li Cunxiao and Luo Yuanzhen both fell off the horse. One of Luo Yuanzhen's legs was directly crushed by the battlefield and had to be carried off the field. On the other hand, Li Cunxiao, although he was also suppressed by the battlefield, he raised his knees with his hands and raised the war horse. It was clear to everyone that the wounded horse had been lifted up by him, and that it was still a few feet above the ground.
With a loud roar, Li Cunxiao pushed the injured horse aside and stood up by himself, except for the dust on his body that looked a little embarrassed, he was unscathed, causing bursts of screams.
First there was no Niu Xuan, and then now there is no Luo Yuanzhen, and the fate of the two generals, the attack of the Shence army immediately began to fail.
The initiative on the entire court is completely controlled by the white team, and the rhythm is completely controlled by the white team. Xin Yan Liu Xun Gao Siji team, Mi Haiwan, Shi Jingcun, Qi Bizhang team, Li Cunxiao, Wang Yanzhang, Fu Cun and Yang Shihou team, the white team was directly divided into three teams to fight.
Three squads form a team, and they seem to fight on their own, but they can often play an exquisite coordination. made the polo master Li Yi in the stands look red. Excited. slapped his thigh from time to time, grinning Tian Lingzi's aching teeth, but he didn't dare to blame.
They are getting braver and braver, and the more they fight, the more tacit they understand. On the contrary, after the two cores of the Shence army were taken off the field in a row, although there were substitutes on the field, the morale was greatly affected, and even the rhythm could not be brought up. The defense began, and the whole team shrank back as if they had been castrated.
With the cooperation of Liu Xun and Gao Siji, Xin Yan penetrated the door hole of the Shence Army three times in a row, bringing the analogy between the two sides to fifteen to seven. The voices of the guards who sang on the side of the stadium were almost hoarse, and the fifteen white flags were unfurled, almost locking the victory, and it was difficult for the Shence Army to turn the tables at all.
In the last two quarters of an hour, there was a gap of eight goals. The Divine Army has given up.
However, Li Cunxiao and the others were not willing to let it go, they were still rushing and fighting. The three squads took turns to charge, and the last was almost on the wheel. The doorway of the Shence Army was pierced again and again, and the nobles in the stands seemed to have lost their passion.
The last period of time is completely unsuspenseful.
Not only did Xin Yan hit two more goals, reaching the highest individual score of 11 goals in the game, but the other nine people each scored. Mi Haiwan scored three points in the game, Shi Jingcun scored two points, and Qi Bizhang scored two points. Liu Xun scored three points, Gao Siji scored three points, Li Cunxiao scored two points, Wang Yanzhang scored one point, Fu Cun scored three points, and Yang Shihou scored two points.
With the sound of a gong, the game was over, and the white team won both games, with a total score of 32-7, and there was no need to play the third game again.
At the end of the game, Tian Lingzi's face couldn't be darker. The Shence Army had a complete advantage at the beginning, they were the champion team of Chang'an last year, and now they not only lost to a temporary polo team, but also were so abused by others, it was simply a loss of face. Thirty-two to seven, this score ratio made him feel as uncomfortable as eating a fly.
Li Jing stood up for the first time and smiled at Tian Lingzi: "Ouch, it's really not easy to win, but fortunately, I won." 800,000 guan, thank you! ”
"Don't worry, if our family loses 800,000 yuan, we will send it to Qinrenfang Qiguo Mansion in a while." Tian Lingzi said this sentence almost through gritted teeth.
Li Yi also smiled and said: "Although the second half is a little disappointing, but in general, this is still a wonderful game, especially the old general Xin Yan, who really deserves to be the first swordsman in my Tang Dynasty, who scored eleven goals alone, creating a record for the number of goals scored by a single person in a polo tournament." After saying it excitedly, he said loudly, "I have already said before the game that in this competition, the winning side will be awarded the official position of the Datong Military Festival Marshal's Mansion, and the losing side will serve as the official position of the Pinglu Military Marshal's Mansion." ”
After the two teams changed their clothes, they came to the Son of Heaven and listened to the emperor's reward for them.
Xin Yan was awarded the title of deputy ambassador and envoy of the Datong Army, and was crowned as the squire of the Zhuguo and the Ministry of Inspection and Engineering, and the founding of the country. Mi Haiwan was awarded the deputy envoy of the Datong Army, Shi Jingcun was awarded the title of marching Sima, and Qi Bizhang was awarded the title of judge of the festival. These three people also served as the assassins of the three states of Datong, and awarded the positions of regimental training envoys in each state, and each was crowned with the title of founding earl.
And Li Cunxiao's six people also performed dazzlingly in this game, which was appreciated by the emperor, and all six of them were crowned as cavalry generals from the fifth grade, and seven were captains from the fourth grade light car, and all of them were awarded the title of viscount of the founding county of the fifth grade.
And although the Shence army lost, it was not for nothing, and the most unexpected thing was Li Jing's surprise, although Chen Jingxuan was almost a substitute in both games, he only played for a quarter of an hour, and he did not gain anything. But in the end, he was still crowned as the deputy ambassador and envoy of the Lulongjun Jiedu, Yang Shili was crowned as the deputy envoy of the Lulongjun Jiedu, Niu Miao was the Sima of the Lulongjun Jiedu, and Luo Yuangao was crowned as the judge of the Jiedu.
Later, Li Yi issued another appointment, appointing the three divisions of Kaifu Yitong, the inspector Situ, Tongping Zhangshi, Shangzhuguo, Xiangyang County, and 2,000 households of Shiyi Du Shenquan as the envoy of Zhaoyi Jiedu, replacing the vacancy left by Li Jun's death.
