Chapter 311: If you are cheap, you are invincible
As mentioned earlier, Bran North is really "on fire" this autumn. The front is full of battles, and the back is full of chaos.
The war on the front line is not much to describe, but it is enough to know that it is about the hegemony of the two empires on the Xize continent. As for the rear, after the cover-up of the Acura blasphemer was interrupted, Bran was now a "nail household" of the gray army.
If Bran's attitude towards the front line is simply to win or block, then for the latter is more entangled. No matter what, it will make the Gray Army bigger, and then affect the front line. Anyway, you won't be able to fight for a while, and you won't see the results. Just swallowing it like this, it was as uncomfortable as swallowing a rat feces raw...... Tangled!
With such a mentality, seeing that this third encirclement and suppression is about to go straight in, it is no wonder that the official newspapers are cheering and excited.
However, after three to five days, the situation gradually stabilized. Although the official newspapers are still singing praises, there is really no new topic in terms of content. This is also normal, if the two sides are officially at war, how can they send the news back to the rear. Besides, this is a contest of more than 100,000 people, and now there are no destructive weapons, basically relying on primitive blade slashing, as long as it is not a one-sided slaughter, it is normal to fight for a week.
People can also think of this, so every day they just glance at the newspaper in the newspaper boy's hand, and if there is no conclusive news, they are not buying. Then I wandered around to look at the propaganda posters of the Gray Army on the walls of various places that had not yet had time to be destroyed, and the stupid, ugly, fat-headed and big-eared aristocrats in the form of cartoons could always make them smile and be in a happy mood......
Everybody knows. The results will appear in these days. Although there are also tones similar to 'heroes are not judged by success or failure' in another world. But the mainstream is basically the king and the loser. No one cares about the fate of the loser. Even if there will be regrets, with the passage of time, they will eventually be forgotten.
......
100,000 mountains, a small border city, Stan City.
Don was playing chess with Josia in an attic vestibule, Don frowned, Josia didn't belong.
As Don had predicted a few days earlier, they had learned in Riva that Bran's 80,000 regular soldiers had stepped into the 100,000 mountain realm. It was quickly transferred here. Josia had a lot of money, and when he arrived, he immediately bought a property and moved the secret agency that was squatting in the slums.
"Tsk, so treacherous, fortunately I have a wise eye like a torch...... "With a sigh, Don En was satisfied to push a chariot chess piece and block the opposing knight from reaching the king, "Josia, it's your turn, Josia...... Alas. You're distracted again!"
Josia stuck out her tongue and looked apologetic. Then he swept the chessboard and said in a low voice: "Tang, it's been five days, according to your previous guess, there should be a result......"
"There's no hurry, even if there is a result, there must be a time gap. It is a few hundred kilometers away from Dawning City, and it takes two days for a single fast horse to come over. β
"Oh, that's it...... Well, be careful. Josia's voice changed, and the green jade finger moved a son, and recreated the killing machine.
"I'll wipe it!" Seeing that his king was about to be surrounded, Don grinned like a toothache and looked up suspiciously, "I'm a little skeptical now, whether you're doing this because you don't have the heart to do this, or if you're deliberately trying to distract my god." β
In the past few days, the newspapers in various cities have been talking about how the regular soldiers are doing, and although the secret agencies here have counterattacked, Josia himself is still a little bottomless. She left Dawning City one step ahead of Tang En, so she didn't know the situation of the city construction behind her, and now although she had confirmed this information from Tang En's mouth countless times, she was inevitably nervous.
Seeing this, Tang En simply pulled her to play chess to enjoy her body and mind, but it turned out that if there was no system plug-in assistance, he would not be the opponent of Josia who was born in the aristocracy, and if it wasn't for Josia to leave a little affection, Don En was afraid that he would be bald several times.
"No, it's Tang, your chess skills are too bad...... Well, you say we're going to win, right?" Josia returned to her state of distraction, and said the truth lightly.
"Whew...... The tiger is not powerful, you and I are a tanuki!" Tang En heard this, his nostrils were exhaled, and the corners of his eyes twitched, "Okay, wait!"
When the words fell, the eyes were gone, and they went directly into the system space. Immediately, without saying a word, the system was opened to calculate the flag road.
"Playing chess with friends and thinking about cheating...... Out of breath!" The old butler who was reading the book on the side squinted his eyes and said without being salty.
"You know a yarn. As he spoke, Tang En remembered the chess moves on the light curtain, turned his head and said confidently, "There are no fathers and sons on the battlefield, and there are no friends on the chessboard." I've never heard of this, and I really despise you. β
"Oh?" said the old butler, pouting and smiling, and then returned his gaze to the book.
Here, Don En has returned to reality, quickly pushed the chess pieces, and then waved his hand and shook it twice in front of Josia's eyes: "Come back, come back to God, see if I don't kill you this time!"
"Hehe......" Josia covered her mouth and chuckled, not paying attention, watching Donn's moves, and then pushing Yizi to continue the attack.
But this time, she didn't have much time to be in a daze. Because Tang En seemed to have suddenly taken medicine, he reversed his previous style of playing chess for a long time, and quickly pushed the flag after five seconds.
"Oh, eat my chess, then I'll eat your ...... too"
"Eat it, really eat it, tsk, it's cool for the little soldier to kill the knight......"
"This is obviously a trap, are you still stepping on it?Alas, I'm embarrassed to eat......
......
Tang En's fragmented thoughts continued, full of arrogance and indebtedness. At first, Josia didn't care, but as the offensive was defused, his face gradually turned solemn, and then turned serious as Donn's chess pieces pressed across the middle boundary...... Later, Josia bit her lip and hesitantly picked up the chess piece but didn't know where to go.
"Think about it, think about it, this move is a killing move...... It's not that I'm boasting, but I think back then, I was also the one who defeated Bran's second chess player. Who's the number one? Of course it's me, hehe!"
This chess game is like a battlefield, and we must not be arrogant in victory or discouraged in defeat. Do you know that I always lost to you before? because, because ...... Because it always makes sense, you have to take a good look. β
The chess game entered the late stage, and the form was very good, and King Josia was almost dead. Don En's villain's triumphant look also became more and more intense. The heart is full of the refreshing feeling of fighting the landlord in the present world, and the crushing is unbearable......
"Well, what's the reason?" Josia put down the chess piece in his hand, his eyebrows suddenly relaxed, he raised his head and smiled brightly, and then picked up a seemingly useless flag in the corner of Donn's territory, and took a step forward...... Dead chess!
"Uh......" blinked, blinked. Tang En first looked at the chess pieces that he had a good offensive and only needed to take two more steps to win, and then looked down at the king who was about to be killed in front of him, with a ghostly look on his face, "How, how can it be ......?"
It's no wonder Don was so shocked, since he came to another world with the killer system, the system has never gone wrong. In that game of chess just now, as long as Don is not hopeless, then he should definitely not lose! Could it be that Josia stole the chess? Impossible, just under my nose, how could it be stolen...... That's me dazzled, it's all an illusion?
"Is it the truth that victory is not arrogant and defeat is inappropriate?" Josia patted Don on the shoulder, straightened his face and nodded solemnly, "Well, I know! I must not be like someone...... Uh, what's wrong with you, don't lose a game of chess to ......"
Nima ...... Don's face was contorted, slightly hideous. It's not that he can't afford to lose, or that he's panicking because the system is wrong. This was because Don suddenly remembered the smile on the corner of the old butler's mouth before......
There is no doubt that the system is impossible to make mistakes, and the missed first-line killing machine in Josia's chess game must have been done by the old butler who used something similar to a trick to cover his eyes, and he was thinking about this at the time, and he got carried away, so he jumped into the pit unconsciously...... Count you ruthless, in this yin me!
"Ahem, it's okay, just now the wound in the body hurt again. After thinking about the cause and effect, Don instantly returned to his usual expression, waved his hand, and then quietly brushed down his sleeve.
"Oh, now it's your turn...... Huh?" Josia didn't doubt him, and then lowered his head, stunned to find that his vital flag was gone, and instantly reacted, raised his head and said angrily, "Don, you are cheating!"
Tang En looked surprised: "Is there any evidence, don't talk nonsense." Everyone knows each other, and I will sue you for slander as well. β
"Don, you ......"
"Don't you, you, now it's my turn...... Ha, dead chess, I won!" "Old butler, old butler, do you think you can play me like this? You are too naΓ―ve......
"If you don't play, you will play a trick if you lose. Whoa, Josia pushed down the flag, her mouth bulging, and said angrily.
"Tsk, the chess quality is worrying. It's just a loss of one game, look at me, I didn't change my face after losing a few games before, and my demeanor is still the same!"
"Don. β
"Huh?"
"Has anyone ever told you that you are shameless!"
"No, it's not slanderous. Don opened his mouth, revealing two rows of big teeth, and deliberately knocked it, "Look, the teeth are still dripping." β
"......" Joshiayu's face flushed, full of speechlessness.
Tang En calmly picked up the chess pieces, shook his head, alas, it is really invincible if he is the cheapest, and the top master is the lonely frost......
"Commander, Commander......" Just as Don continued to provoke Josia's anger, a burst of excited cheers came from outside the front hall, "We won, Dawning City won......"
