Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The guards of the Royal Forest are all elites of Great Qi. The Shu soldiers are also elite soldiers, but they have only been trained for more than two years, which should be slightly inferior to the perennial training of the Imperial Forest Army. ”

"If the numbers are equal, it's hard to say who wins and who loses. However, General Chu was too proud of himself, and deliberately 'humiliated' the master, proposing to use 2,000 soldiers against 5,000 Shu soldiers......"

Sheng Hong said this, smiled maliciously, and winked at Xie Mingxi: "Let's wait to see a good show." ”

Xie Mingxi smiled dumbly: "It's just a matter of digging a pit for others to jump, but it's rare to dig a pit for yourself." General Chu was also too arrogant and conceited. ”

No wonder General Chu would be like this.

In the eyes of everyone, no matter how powerful Lian Shuyuan is, she is just a woman. The woman is the head of the head of the sect, can Shu Bingyan be convinced? Moreover, the Shu army has only been established for more than two years, and it is training day and night, so how powerful can it be?

Sheng Hong lowered his voice and smiled: "The news of the two armies fighting each other has spread. I heard that the four major silver banks in Beijing have teamed up to set up a handicap. Those who won the royal forest army accounted for the vast majority. The winning rate of Shu soldiers is extremely low, and it is ten to one. ”

Ten to one?

It's so familiar!

Xie Mingxi remembered the old things with nostalgia: "Back then, the academy was in a big competition, and the winning rate of Lianchi Academy was extremely low, and it was also ten to one. I made a bet of 10,000 taels of silver that day, and I came back with a win of 100,000 taels of silver. ”

Sheng Hong also missed it very much: "I also won 100,000 taels." I really miss it! ”

The emperor and queen glanced at each other and smiled tacitly.

With such a good opportunity, it is not bad to earn some private money. After all, no one is afraid of too many private rooms!

"It's too much to bet on, it's too eye-catching." Xie Mingxi smiled casually: "I asked Xianghui to bet for me separately from Yufu Yu, and bet 10,000 taels at a time." Win 300,000 taels! ”

Sheng Hong thought so: "I also bet 30,000 taels." ”

……

This military exercise set off a craze far better than the academy competition.

The first female general of Daqi!

Just these few words, the gimmick is enough.

It is also reasonable for the four major silver banks to privately open gambling games and set up handicaps. Every year in the academy competition, the four major silver banks will set up gambling games, and they will make a lot of money from it every year. After all, there are too many people in the capital who have money, leisure and good deeds......

This military exercise between the two armies involves the dignity of the elite Imperial Forest Army of Daqi and the dignity of General Chu.

As soon as the handicap opened, the military masters flocked to it, took out all the money they had accumulated for a long time, slapped the counter, and foamed at the mouth: "Bet twenty taels for the military master!" ”

"Of course, it's the victory of the Imperial Forest Army! The dignified Imperial Forest Army, will it still lose to the Shu soldiers! We, General Chu, will we still lose to a girl! ”

The game of the generals in the court did not affect ordinary soldiers at all. In the eyes of the soldiers, General Chu would never lose to the so-called female general!

The disciples of the generals were also aroused and placed bets one after another. It's also mostly about the victory of the Royal Forest Army!

In the capital, where can you see the Shu soldiers!

The descendants of the Lian family shouted fiercely, but when it came to the moment of real money, they hesitated again. Only a few ruthlessly took out a few hundred taels of private silver, betting on the victory of the Shu soldiers!

The shopkeepers of the silver village received a soft hand in collecting cash, among which there were quite a lot of large bets, and there were not a few who bet thousands of taels. There are several bets on the victory of Shu soldiers for 10,000 taels, which is not too eye-catching.

The day before the martial arts, Princess Min sent someone to bet 20,000 taels to bet on the victory of the Shu soldiers!

Immediately afterwards, General Yin also ordered someone to bet 10,000 taels, and also bet on the victory of the Shu soldiers!

Zhou Quan took out the silver he had accumulated for several years, a total of two thousand taels, all of which were bet on the Shu soldiers.

……

It was the end of the year, and in previous years, everyone was busy giving New Year's gifts to prepare for the New Year. At the end of the first year of Jianye, the military exercises of the two armies attracted the attention of everyone inside and outside the court.

On the day of the official martial arts exercise, the dignified son of heaven also went to the barracks. The young Empress Xie also walked with the emperor. In addition, the generals who were famous in Daqi also went to the barracks together.

In fact, the civil servants also want to join in the fun.

It's just that it is a common practice for civilian officials not to enter the barracks. Even Elder Lu Ge had to suppress the curiosity in his heart and stay in the cabinet to deal with political affairs.

Zhao Ge Lao and Lu Ge Lao have always been good friends, and when the political affairs came to an end, they laughed in a low voice: "Today, the two armies are practicing martial arts, I don't know who wins and who loses!" ”

Lu Ge Lao didn't move, and replied lightly: "You can know until the evening." ”

It's not fun!

Zhao Ge Lao secretly rolled his eyes, turned his head and muttered to Yan Ge Lao again.

Yan Ge looked at the old man with a heavy attitude, but he was actually quite good at gossiping. Yan Zhenzhen's temperament and temper are the same as when Yan Ge was young. It's just that Yan Ge Lao usually holds the old pavilion shelf, and he is quite reserved. At this time, only a few pavilion elders were present, so it would not hurt to relax a little.

Yan Ge Lao quietly laughed and said, "My old wife privately took a thousand taels of private silver to bet on the victory of the Shu army. What else did General Lian say that he must fight for the women of the world! For the sake of harmony in the inner house, I have to praise the high victory rate of the Shu soldiers against my will in front of my old wife in the past few days. ”

Isn't it?

Zhao Ge Lao had a relative: "My daughter-in-law and granddaughter also took the silver and bet on the victory of the Shu soldiers. ”

Therefore, the cashiers of the silver village are soft-handed, not only because there are many military masters of the Royal Forest Army. There are also many noble ladies in the capital, and there are not a few who take out private money.

Li Ge Lao did not interject much.

I heard that the granddaughter-in-law Fang also took out all the private money, and she was determined to support her master. I don't know how much the Fang clan has bet!

……

"Ruomeng, did you really bet all the private money on the Shu soldiers?"

In the inner house of the Li Mansion, Mrs. Li's slightly weak voice came out.

Li Xiangru's death was a painful blow to Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li has been ill for many days, and she is also much older and haggard. It has only recently shown signs of improvement.

Mrs. Li lay on the bed all day, not asking about things outside the window. It's just that the two armies are known about the martial arts exercises, and even she, a person who is recuperating, knows about it.

Fang Ruomeng took out the private money to bet, and did not hide it from the people around him. After Mrs. Li found out, she couldn't help but ask.

Fang Ruomeng, who was waiting on the side of the bed, carefully fed her mother-in-law medicine, pursed her lips and smiled: "Let my mother-in-law smile." The daughter-in-law actually doesn't have much private silver, only 5,000 taels. ”

Mrs. Lee: "......"

After Fang Ruomeng finished feeding the medicine, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief for Mrs. Li, and said softly: "Mother-in-law, don't worry." The odds of Shu soldiers are extremely high, it is ten to one. The daughter-in-law took out 5,000 taels, and soon it could be multiplied tenfold, and she would come back with 50,000 taels. ”

Mrs. Li didn't have the strength to roll her eyes, and asked weakly, "You have so much confidence in Shu Bing?" ”

Fang Ruomeng smiled calmly: "Yes, I have more confidence in Master Lian!" ”
