Chapter 461: Opening Bets
Li Zijun's aggressive eyes reminded Marcus of Maher again. Truth be told, he couldn't fully trust Maher until this moment to design himself and put himself in danger!
It's just that Marcas also knows very well that this matter will be proven soon, and Li Zijun really doesn't need to deceive himself in this matter.
But if this incident is true, then Li Zijun will have a more objective and specific argument for the future of the Seventh Reserve. There is no room for Marcus to have any doubts about this!
"Even if you guess correctly, don't forget that once the plan to sneak attack on Fengqi's granary is cleared, our team will immediately be placed under General Lei Bin's command. ”
"You judge that the 'Fengqi Granary' is a trap, so wouldn't they follow us also 'Nine Deaths and One Life'?!"
As long as they are still your subordinates, as long as they obey your commands, others will not be able to maliciously consume them!"
"I see, this is also the purpose of your request for the personnel appointment and dismissal of the cavalry from Conrad!"
"But those cavalry generals are different from the leaders of the minority groups in our reserves, and they are not something you can settle with a few words!"
"If you can't put it on the table, we will pack them up and send them back to Conrad collectively, and if you are capable and willing to be loyal to you, you will boldly promote and reuse!"
"Is this going to work? Besides, what if they fake allegiance to me? How do you tell me if they're real and what's fake in such a short time?"
"I don't have a better way to do this, and for now we can only hope for the two generals, Rogge and Hope, maybe they will have a way!"
"As far as I know. The cavalry generals are arrogant, what if Rogge and Hope can't stop them?"
"Then they're going to try the steel knives in my hands!" Li Zijun exuded a powerful murderous aura from the inside out, which made Marcas, who was standing beside him, shudder.
The two of them talked. Rogge and Hope walked in from outside with a gloomy face, and it was clear that something unpleasant had happened to them!
Looking at the dusty Hope, Marcus and Li Zijun secretly exchanged a look and walked over to the two:
"What's going on, is someone making trouble?" Marcas heard a strong smell of blood in Li Zijun's tone, it seemed that he was really going to take someone to test the knife!
"There's no trouble, it's just that Bridget is organizing people outside to conduct combat training!" Rogge looked at Hope, who was still angry, and answered Li Zijun's question with some shame.
Bridget was the captain of the first brigade of this cavalry, during this time. It was always him who managed the cavalry on his behalf. He originally thought that even if Conrad didn't appoint him as the commander of this cavalry, he would have to give him a deputy position.
But what Bridget didn't expect was that this time Conrad actually appointed three commanders, Marcus, Rogge and Hope (in order to take care of Rogge and Hope's feelings, Li Zijun did not have any position in the cavalry, and he still served as the acting commander of the Seventh Reserve. But there is no name for him!
Marcus served as the cavalry commander as a prince, and Bridget had nothing to say, but he was surprised by the sudden rise of Rog and Hope, especially since they became his top bosses. He's a little dissatisfied!
Although Rogge and Hope were famous back then, they have been silent for many years. In particular, the strength of the two is not in their respective martial arts, which also adds to Bridget's dissatisfaction with them.
Rogge and Hope also knew that their 'airborne' had upset Bridget, just to make themselves fit in with the cavalry. They chose patience and concession for Bridget's provocations.
Today, Bridget even organized the whole camp to conduct combat training, and he also sent a special invitation to Rogge and Hope to learn from each other.
Hope couldn't stand Bridget's cynicism. As soon as his head was hot, he got on the war horse.
This Bridget did have some means, just a look to knock Hope off the horse. This is also the origin of Hope's dust!
Hearing the story of the two, Li Zijun suddenly laughed:
"You want to talk, right? I'm feeling an itch in my palms!Let's go, I'll go out with you!" Li Zijun motioned for Rogge and Hope to lead the way, as if he was going to meet this Bridget.
"Ed, I just found out that this Bridget has already entered the ranks of the Great Swordsman not long ago, and he is extremely good at riding, you are so rash to pass, I am afraid!" Rogge didn't finish his sentence, but everyone guessed what he really meant.
"Don't worry, I'm just going to take a look. If I'm really not his opponent, let's think of other ways!" Li Zijun said with a smile when he saw the worried faces of the people around him.
Rogge and Hope were still a little hesitant, and they both looked at Marcas.
Although Marcus was also a little uneasy, he had an unusual trust in Li Zijun. Under the gaze of Rogge and Hope, he only nodded with a slight hesitation.
Rogge and Hope saw that Marcus also recognized the matter, and they didn't want to say anything more, so they had to take Li Zijun and Marcus out of the camp and walk towards the cavalry training ground.
As soon as they stepped into the martial arts training ground, more than a dozen war horses suddenly galloped over.
Seeing this scene, Rogge and Hope were taken aback, and they rushed forward, ready to pull Marcus and Li Zijun out of here.
"Don't worry, it's okay!" Li Zijun smiled faintly and gently pushed away Hope, who was trying to hold him.
Li Zijun did not retreat but advanced in the face of the roaring war horse, and actually took the initiative to meet it with his hands behind his back.
"Phew!", "Phew!", "Phew!" The cavalry had already seen the appearance of the comer, they were only doing this to give Marcus and Li Zijun some 'color', they didn't want to really bump into these adults.
Seeing Li Zijun suddenly moving forward, they were so frightened that they strangled their respective mounts.
"Bridget, you're riding well!" Li Zijun said in a slightly defiant tone, looking at the only knight who had kept his mount firmly on his feet.
"General Ed, other subordinates dare not compare with others, but when it comes to this riding skill, among all the soldiers under Marshal Conrad, subordinates are not afraid of anyone!" Bridget jumped off his horse and patted his chest with great confidence.
While he said this, he didn't forget to look at Rogge and Hope behind Li Zijun with mocking eyes, making them blush with shame.
"Oh, then I really want to see it! Anyway, it's okay today, how about the two of us compete?" Li Zijun walked to Bridget's side with a surprised expression and patted his war horse lightly.
"You, forget it!" Bridget looked Li Zijun up and down, and shook his head contemptuously.
"General, to tell you the truth, I'm afraid I've been riding a horse for a little longer than you. Compete with you in riding skills, and win without martial arts!"
"I don't think that the level of riding is directly proportional to the time spent on a horse! Bridget, you can't be afraid of me, right?"
"I'm afraid of you, I'm afraid of hurting you!"
"Since you're not worried about failure, then I don't care!
Li Zijun looked at Bridget and smiled, borrowed a bow and arrow from a knight next to him, and shot an arrow almost one hundred and fifty meters away in the bull's-eye!
"Okay!" Seeing that Li Zijun had such accurate archery skills at a young age, Bridget couldn't help but be secretly surprised, and he couldn't help but be a little worried while shouting loudly.
"The general's archery skills are indeed admirable, but you probably forgot that we are comparing horsemanship, not archery!"
"That's the riding we're going to compete with!"
"In a moment, we were at the command of His Highness Marcas, and at his command, we rushed together against the carved arrow, and whoever was the first to shoot it down with the training gun by any means would be the winner. What do you think of me?" Li Zijun raised the headless wooden gun in his hand that was specially used for training and asked Bridget.
"It's as simple as that?"
"It's a bit simple!"
"If you don't mind, how about we add some more jackpots? Of course, if other people are willing to participate, they can bet on it! I think His Highness Marcus will be happy to fulfill this interest!" Li Zijun said, turning his head to look at Marcas.
"No problem! everyone can bet, I promise to cash it out on the spot!" At this time, Marcas naturally did not have any opinion, and he ordered the guards behind him to take out a bag of purple gold coins and throw them on the ground.
This is also thanks to Marcas's dedication to improving the food in the reserve team during this time, otherwise he might not have carried so much money with him.
"It seems that His Highness and the general are seeing us poor and want to help us!" Although Bridget said that he was also a little weak-hearted, but at this moment he was like riding on the back of a tiger, and there was no way to retreat, so he had to grit his teeth and insist.
Bridget took a small money bag from her bosom and threw it to her men:
"Go and help me get it to His Highness to register, this is my bet!"
"Bridget, you seem to have little confidence in yourself! Such a good opportunity to make a fortune, if you miss it, I'm afraid you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
"Don't bother the two masters, this brother also helps me count how many gold coins are in here, and bet them on for me!" Li Zijun said as he took out a money bag and threw it in front of Bridget's men.
The subordinate was about to open Bridget's money bag when he saw the thing Li Zijun had thrown at his feet.
Just by looking at it, the difference between the two was a little too big!, and he unconsciously turned his gaze back to Bridget's face. (To be continued......)
