Chapter 1071: The Gambling Game of the Big Camp in Baiqiu Town
"The safety of Zhongwangzhou is second only to Wangzhou, Jin Man did a good job this time!"
The Commander's Office immediately discussed the situation in Zhongwangzhou, and Gongsun Jie first praised the command of the campaign.
"The two legions set out from Zhennan City, and the King of Shaodianjian County must have participated in the planning of this battle, and he set an excellent example for the state pastors. The Lord in Charge and the Prince Regent are also indispensable for strategizing. "The new commander of the Military Command Department, Shaodian, has made a big slap.
The other commanders looked disdainful.
"Ahem, this matter has nothing to do with me. Shaodianzhang's face was slightly red, "I want to discuss with you when I call everyone here, give Jin Man a temporary command, and he can command all the armed forces in the state before the rebels in Zhongwangzhou are eliminated, except for the Anguo Army." ”
"You're thinking too wisely. Shaodian Ji didn't even think about it, and immediately agreed.
"I'm afraid this is a bit of a conflict with the state pastor in charge of the military and political power, Jin Man is not the commander of the war zone after all, will the state pastor feel that his authority has been weakened?" Xun Qi felt inappropriate, but it was not because he had a bad relationship with Jin Man.
As the Yang family, the Yao family, and the Fan family surrendered to the enemy one after another, the Bao family's nest was besieged, the Jiang family went out to fight, and there were few old courtiers left in the capital, and there were not many who really had a national strategic vision, and Xun Qi was one of them.
"Your Excellency is just for emergency purposes, similar to the king's royal approval of the gold medal arrow, the purpose of which is for the stability of the kingdom, I believe that the state ministers will understand. "Gongsun Jie has no objection to letting Jin Man take power.
"The king's power is supreme, and his subordinates are worried that they will be misunderstood. Long Kun tactfully objected.
"Commander Long don't worry, I will explain to the Prince Regent that this kind of thing is within the power of the Commander's Office, and all states must also respect the military orders of the Commander's Palace. Shaodian Ji seized the opportunity to remind everyone of his relationship with Shaodianshi.
"What Commander Xun said is not unreasonable, in this way, the temporary command cannot mobilize local armed forces, and we still have to respect local officials. Shaodian obviously did not see through the essence of the problem.
"Alas, the problem is not in the size of the authority, but in the right status. Xun Qi sighed in his heart, but he couldn't directly pick out the words, which was not beneficial to the Xun family.
Long Kun glanced at Gongsun Jie and thought: Hmph, everyone has selfish thoughts, why should I be a villain, the Long family does not lose to others in terms of influence, and the Long family is indispensable if there are benefits.
Shaodian Zhang saw that Xun Qi and Long Kun were silent, so he said: "Since no one objects, the Military Command Department will draft a military order." ”
Outside the gate of the Commander's Mansion, Xun Qi caught up with Long Kun and asked, "What are you thinking about Gongsun Jie?" Could it be that they have an old relationship with Jin Man or Pei Yi?"
Long Kun pulled Xun Qi to his carriage and said, "It's not strange that there is, but the Gongsun family has behaved a little strangely since the death of the first king, and it is inevitable that there is no careful thinking." The most suspicious personal relationship is the General Staff, I didn't see that Wang Deng didn't say a word, today we can't stop the commander. ”
"What kind of temporary command is a great threat to the state pastor, can't you see it? Lord Commander really thinks that his prestige can suppress the whole army?" Xun Qi felt that Long Kun was a little strange.
"Of course I know, adults are afraid of lack of prestige to make such a thing. Brother Xun, now the kingdom is not what it used to be, there are fewer and fewer people like you and me who understand, and the above no longer likes to listen to the right words, only by keeping our position can we plan for the future of the kingdom, and there are some things that we have to deal with in our own ways. Long Kun spoke earnestly.
"In this way, what is the difference between us and Shaodianji? I know that Jin Man will not mess up Zhongwangzhou, so I am worried that someone will be young and vigorous!" Xun Qi was a little anxious.
Long Kun's face turned cold, "Can't even you see it?" I think the military needs young people, at least until now, their performance is no worse than that of veterans." He knew who Xun Qi was referring to.
Xun Qi knew that he shouldn't say this to Long Kun, so he quickly explained: "I am thinking about the kingdom, the authority of the imperial court has been repeatedly challenged, who will be afraid of the royal power in the future?"
"Shaodian Yong set himself up as the king, who can represent the royal power? Shaodian Shi? Or is it the young lord today? There are too many people who challenge the imperial court, and it is impossible to find out who caused it, in short, it is not you and me. Long Kun's tone softened.
The Long family and the Xun family should not be evil, both of them know very well in their hearts.
"Can't you find a way to make Lord Shuai change his mind?" Xun Qi made a final effort.
"I have no choice, but I will definitely remember this decision, the Long family needs to uphold justice and demand the same treatment in the future. Long Kun made his words clear.
"Alas, is this really good for the family?" Xun Qi knew that he was powerless to change all this.
"At least it doesn't hurt. ”
“......”
There is a super betting market in the camp of Baiqiu Town.
"Team Jiao, the brothers all want to earn some settling-in expenses, please give me some advice. "Since the end of training, the mourning cow has been pestering Jiao Mingguang.
"I'll say it again, I don't know anything about gambling schemes, how do you tell me to give me?" Jiao Mingguang was obviously impatient.
"Ouch, don't be modest, I think you were the commander back then, and I heard that you also beat the chief of staff, what haven't you ever seen? Yesterday someone saw you helping the Fan team place a bet, you can't just pat yourself on the back and ignore your subordinates." "The cow still doesn't give up.
"! Who is talkative? I just think someone will come up with a way, this probability is about sixty percent, Fan team is willing to try, I will help her bet. Sixty percent sure that you are willing to fight, if you do, you can bet yourself. ”
It turned out that Zhang Dingyuan's staff officer had several handicaps, one of which was a bet on whether someone would come up with a way to deal with the enemy magician, and whether there was or not, it was a loss of one point, and Jiao Mingguang helped Fan Yuzhen bet on it.
There are other handicaps, such as who can come up with a way to deal with the enemy magician, there are several popular candidates, Fei is one to one, Zhang Dingyuan is one to five, Luo Tao and Shu Li are seven to one, etc., the most unpopular is that the odds of any ordinary soldier reach one to one.
The gambling originated from Ding Kui's order to collect ways to deal with enemy magicians in the whole army, hoping that all the soldiers of the army would show their wisdom and talents and enthusiastically give advice to the commander.
Zhang Dingyuan threatened to reward those who came up with a solution for the money he earned from the gambling game, and it was best for those who came up with a way to tell him first, and he would bet heavily on himself.
There was no eating, drinking, or prostitution in the barracks, and most of the soldiers loved to gamble, and the gambling game soon attracted a large number of bets, and it also made everyone desperately try to find a way to get both military merit and monetary rewards, who doesn't want such a good thing.
"A lot of people are betting on their subordinates. Fei Ze smiled bitterly.
"Hehe, everyone is optimistic about you, you have to come on, this time the reward is a lot. "Ding Kui is the dealer of the gambling game.
He didn't think about making money through gambling, but he used this method to secretly offer a reward, and on the surface, the person who came up with the method had no monetary reward, at most he recorded a sum in the military industry book, and actually gave a reward through Zhang Dingyuan.
This will not bring about a bad atmosphere in the army, and it can maintain the majesty of the commander-in-chief, as for whether there is a gamble in the future, that is another matter.
"At present, there are many people who can come up with a way to bet, isn't the lord afraid of losing a lot this time?" Fei Ze was shocked by the amount of the bet.
"I really want someone to come up with a way to lose hundreds of thousands of gold coins soon, and I can still afford it." It's worth killing hundreds of magicians with hundreds of gold coins, and it's not a loss to kill dozens of them, and the enemies that can be solved with money are not called enemies. "Ding Kui doesn't care.
He didn't worry about losing money, he didn't expect the people below to come up with a way from the beginning, was it so easy to deal with a magician? Ordinary soldiers definitely had no way, no matter how strategic the staff officer was, he didn't know the magician, only the magician knew the magician best, but the magician was not good at strategy.
Thinking is what he needs the most, and the people below can provide him with ideas, and in layman's terms, they will help him open his mind, after all, he is a scheming magician, as long as he has the right ideas, he can come up with a solution.
You can't kill a magician out of thin air, but everyone's enthusiasm for making money can't be stopped, and the officers at all levels in Baiqiu Town are busy, receiving a thousand strange ideas from morning to night. They weren't sure if those ideas would work, so they simply reported them to the staff officers of their divisions.
The staff officers can't report all their ideas to Ding Kui, and a large part of them that obviously don't work must be filtered out, otherwise Ding Kui will scold them half to death.
Zhang Dingyuan came in with a stack of documents half a person high, and put it in front of Ding Kui with a pant.
"I seem to have cheated myself!" Ding Kui wanted to cry.
The staff officers are a little more insightful, but the wizarding world has too many unknowns for them to filter out all useless thoughts.
"What is this!" He looked at one and threw the other, and he couldn't help but look at the back, and he had to read the idea he came up with with tears in his eyes.
Qianyou picked up a document, was amused after reading it, and said with a smile: "What kind of bad idea is this! Zhang Clockwork, okay, I remember him, I actually look at the magician so badly." ”
Ding Kui closed his eyes, rubbed his eyebrows with his fingers, and said, "*It is still useful for individual magicians. "I thought of what happened to me in Pinggu Town, "It's a joke on the battlefield." ”
"Why don't I help you see a little?" Qianyou took the initiative to ask.
"No!" Ding Kui opened his eyes and reached out to pick up the next document, "You don't know how to march and arrange, and you can't judge some methods." ”
Qianyou shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, you can solve it yourself." "I can't help it.
Zhenjing City, Magic Tower, Guijing, who was sitting on the top floor, shook his body, and a mouthful of blood spurted out with a "poof", and a jade talisman in front of him burst open.
"How so?" he slowly stood up, holding the magic in both hands, and shot out several rays of light, which sank into the crystal ball in the center of the room, and the crystal ball reflected white light onto him.
"How is it possible! No, this matter needs to be told to Shao Dianhuan. He wiped the blood from his lips, composed, and waved his hand against the air in front of him.
A mirror appeared out of thin air, and Shao Dianhuan's portrait was reflected in the mirror, "What's the matter? Don't you know I'm cultivating?"
