Chapter 349: Gambling

The speed of the Great Chu Empire is very fast!

When it was almost to Liao, he didn't react, and 400,000 troops who set off from various different routes had already come to Kyoto, Linhuang Mansion in Liao!

And at this time!

Yelu Hongji, together with the 50,000 defenders of his own Linhuang Mansion, had just gathered less than 100,000 troops.

It is inferior to the Great Chu Empire in terms of weapons, equipment and even the strength of its soldiers, and now with the addition of this army that is less than a quarter of the enemy, Yelu Hongji has not yet fought, and his heart is half cold!

Subconsciously, he had the idea of running away.

If you can survive, even if the city is broken, even if the country is destroyed, it doesn't matter, at least you can survive, at least you can survive, at least there is a chance to make a comeback.

Thinking about it, Yelu Hongji looked at Xiao Feng with blank eyes, asked, and said, "Brother Yi, what do you say we should do now?" ”

The reason why he asked Xiao Feng was not because he felt that he had a way to solve the problem at hand.

Under the four-fold gap, under the overall gap in equipment, weapons, and strength, under the kind of weapons that the soldiers who came to report the news said before, even if Xiang Yu is reincarnated, Han Xin is reincarnated, it is estimated that there is no way.

This is a gap in hard power, and no strategy can make up for it.

There was only one reason why he looked at Xiao Feng.

Feel that the other person can take you with you.

At present, Linhuang Mansion has been surrounded by the army of the Great Chu State, and the normal way is definitely not to escape.

There must be a strong man with him before it is possible to leave!

And Xiao Feng is a grandmaster-level powerhouse, ranking first among the big countries, and in a small country like Liao, the grandmaster-level powerhouse is already considered the strongest, in this case, he will have this idea.

"What to do..."

Xiao Feng muttered, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and his face was full of embarrassment.

He didn't know that Yelu Hongji wanted to run, thinking that the other party was trying to ask how to deal with the army of the Great Chu Empire outside.

And on this!

He wanted to say that he couldn't help it!

After all, the gap in hard power cannot be made up no matter what.

But looking at Yelu Hongji's stunned appearance, he misunderstood what he meant, and Xiao Feng, who had a benevolent and heroic personality, couldn't say anything.

Ultimately!

"Alas~"

After struggling for a long time, Xiao Feng sighed and said, "I had a little friendship with the emperor of the Great Chu Empire before, and I'll go talk to them when the time comes... It doesn't make sense, but I'll do my best to save your life! ”

"Good, good!"

A glint of hope flashed in Yelu Hongji's eyes, and he said happily again and again.

What he hopes for most right now is to save his life.

That's why he wanted to escape!

So when he heard that his life could be saved, he was naturally happy!

As long as his life is saved, there is a possibility of a comeback.

If you can't save your life, then everything is really over!

----

Outside Linhuang Mansion!

Chen Ke looked at the Linhuang Mansion in front of him with a faint smile on his face.

As a veteran of the Great Chu Empire, although Chen Ke has not left any name in history, and Li Kuan has never had such a figure in his memory before he crossed over, he has to say that he has always performed very well.

In terms of merit, he is only a little worse than Xue Rengui, but it is almost the same, and his current position and rank are the same as Xue Rengui.

And this can't help but make Li Kuan sigh that history has buried many talents.

Well, Chen Ke has such an ability, but in the end, he never left a name in history, Li Kuan didn't need to think about it to know that he must have died when he was an exile, so he didn't leave a name!

However, no matter what happened originally, it was also in the past.

Now he is the general of the Great Chu Empire!

Moreover, now he is also the commander who is responsible for attacking Linhuang Mansion, attacking Liao, and then attacking Jin and Northern Song Dynasty.

Specialized in the attack on the south side!

As a commander, just as Chen Ke was about to launch an offensive order, a figure that he looked a little familiar appeared in his sight.

Xiao Feng!

Chen Ke, who had seen the intelligence of the Liao State, recognized the other party at a glance.

Although Xiao Feng has disappeared from the rivers and lakes in the past few months, in fact, he has been under the supervision of Di Ting, and as the current king of the Southern Courtyard of the Liao State and the current king of Chu, Chen Ke naturally wanted to understand it before attacking the Liao State, so he had seen the other party's photos.

Only then did he recognize the other at a glance.

"In Xia Xiao Feng, I've seen you!" Xiao Feng rode his horse unhurriedly and came to Chen Ke and the others.

"In Xia Chen Ke, a small major in the Great Chu Empire, and also the commander of the 400,000 army behind this, I don't know what happened to the once famous Beiqiao Peak?" Chen Kezheng said.

Major?

Commander?

Xiao Feng raised his eyebrows, arched his hand, and said politely, "It turned out to be Brother Chen!" Disrespectful, disrespectful! ”

Although he didn't know what position the major was, he could still understand the three words commander.

It is the leader, commander-in-chief, marshal and so on of this army!

And from this point of view, Xiao Feng is sure that the other party must be a high-level figure in the Great Chu Empire.

You know, this is the commander of hundreds of thousands of troops!

"What about polite words, needless to say, I don't know what Brother Xiao has to do? For the sake of your majesty and your majesty who used to have a little friendship, I can be accommodating with reasonable things, but if you want me to let go of Yelu Hongji and Linhuang Mansion, don't talk about it! Chen Ke said politely.

When Xiao Feng heard this, he suddenly became numb.

Before he could say this, he was directly blocked!

After hesitating for a moment, he finally stubbornly spoke, "Can't you really discuss it again?" If there is a real fight, at least tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, will die because of this! ”

"Actually..."

Chen Ke looked at this appearance, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and suddenly thought of something, after looking Qiao Feng up and down, he touched his chin and thought about it, and said, "It's not non-negotiable!" ”

"Really!?" Xiao Feng said in surprise.

Life is nothing more than ups and downs.

A second ago, when he heard Chen Ke's words blocking him, his heart sank to the bottom, but now when he heard it, there was still a turning point, and he suddenly became happy.

"Really!"

After Chen Ke nodded, he began to say, "Actually, our majesty has always admired you and hopes that you can do things for him, but he knows that with your character, it is almost impossible to agree, so he didn't say it!" ”

"What do you mean?" Xiao Feng frowned and said, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Let's make a bet!"

Chen Ke said with a smile, "You owe my majesty a favor last time, and this time you came to intercede, if you succeed, then you owe another favor, that is, a total of two favors!" ”

"And we will take these two favors as a bet, bet on that, if you win these two favors, not to mention, we will also withdraw from here as you wish, and let Yelu Hongji go!"

"But if you lose, from now on you will be a soldier of my Great Chu Empire, serving my Great Chu Empire to the death, how about it?"

"This..."

When Xiao Feng heard this, he immediately hesitated.

Seeing this, Chen Ke accentuated his tone a little and said, "Xiao Feng, you have to be clear, it is you who owe my Majesty, not My Majesty, and now I can bet with you on this condition, it is already based on the friendship Your Majesty once owed you!" ”

Oh, yes!

This is a national affair, and it stands to reason that it should not be swayed by private feelings.

Now that the commander of the other party can give this kind of condition, it is already for the sake of Li Gongzi, which is quite face-saving.

Thinking of this, Xiao Feng finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll bet with you!" ”

Hearing him agree, Chen Ke smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't cheat you, since you want to gamble, you will bet on one that you are better at, so that you can lose convincingly!" ”

"Hmm!"

Xiao Feng listened, nodded, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He was really afraid that Chen Ke would bet on what he was not good at.

At this moment, he felt that Chen Keren was not bad, quite open-minded.

"When it comes to what you are good at, it is nothing more than drinking and martial arts, but now it is in the middle of the battlefield, if we are both drunk, it is indecent and inappropriate, and more importantly, drinking this kind of thing cannot guarantee the fairness and righteousness, after all, each jar of wine is more or less different, some a little more, some a little less!"

"So let's compare martial arts, fight together, lose is losing, win is win, we can't blame others, and we can't blame external factors!" A glimmer of light flashed in the depths of Chen Ke's eyes, and he said generously.

In this plane, winemaking cannot be industrialized yet, it all depends on people, and in this way, it is inevitable that there will be more and less wine.

Of course, the actual difference is not too big.

However, the reason why Chen Ke proposed to use martial arts to compete for victory and defeat does not mean that he is really fair.

It's that he has something to rely on.

As a high-ranking officer of the Great Chu Empire, relying on his own generous salary and the accumulation of countless resources rewarded by Li Kuan on weekdays, his current strength has already reached the late stage of the first order.

That is, the level of the Great Grandmaster of this plane.

So!

He will definitely win against Xiao Feng!

As for whether it would be a bit despicable to do so...

As an army, it is not despicable to achieve victory by any means, and to share the worries of His Majesty by any means, it is just a normal means.

"Good!"

Hearing this, Xiao Feng immediately agreed boldly, and said, "Just rely on martial arts, we will decide whether we win or lose based on our ability!" ”

Fighting is indeed the fairest way to do it, winning or losing depends on your own ability, and you can't blame others.
