Chapter 135
However, their scheming will never succeed.

why?
Because Lao Tzu has traveled through time and is destined to have the halo of the protagonist, how can he be knocked down by these wicked old men?
After doing enough psychological construction, we still have to face the reality after all.

Even with the aura of the protagonist, the current difficulties need to be dealt with seriously.

Wang Mi clasped his fists and said, "If there is a problem with the food and grass, the lower official is willing to take all the responsibilities."

Xie Xuan was a little stunned. He never expected that Wang Mi would agree so happily without any hesitation.

He dug the pit, how could he not know that Wang Mi should not be held responsible for this matter, Xie Xuan was a serious person, and he was not a person who didn't know right and wrong.

However, why did he put the blame on Wang Mi's head again?
Lao Xie is also very difficult!

As the main general, the backbone of the Xie Clan in Chen County, Xie Xuan himself cannot take over the pot, so what about Huan Chong?

Xie Xuan of course also hated Huan Chong, if it wasn't for his incompetence, why would he have gotten to such a point.

However, Huan Chong was the leader of the army after all, and he was supported by Jingzhou forces behind him. He was an indispensable force in the battle to capture Xiangyang.

As the chief general of the Beifu army, Xie Xuan also gave three points to Huan Chong, which is why, he knew that all the food was consumed by Huan Chong, but he had nothing to do.

To attack Xiangyang, do you need the strength of Jingzhou soldiers?
The answer is certainly yes.

That being the case, Wang Mi became an option that could be sacrificed.

Who made him Wenchen?
Who made him young and inexperienced?

Most importantly, who let him drill into the battlefield by himself!
In the place where the generals gathered, Wang Mi naturally became a punching bag for the generals' fault, a man who took the blame.

Wang Mi's calmness made Xie Xuan even more embarrassed. Look at how bright and upright others are, and then look at you, there is nothing left in your mind except conspiracy and tricks.

"That's what you said, don't regret it then."

As the initiator of this incident, Huan Chong jumped out at this time, and Wang Mi gave him a kind smile.

Old boy, you still have a face squeak.

"This is natural. The younger generation will definitely accept the lessons of General Huan and will never repeat the same mistakes."

He is referring to Sang scolding Huai!
Although Huan Chong was confused, he still heard it!

Boy, how dare you confuse me!

"Why should Secretary Wang be so nervous? If something goes wrong, the old man will help you find a solution. If it's a big deal, if the trouble comes to the court, the old man will definitely help you with a few words of praise."

"Then thank you General Huan."

It is impossible to speak nicely. Huan Chong's implication is very clear. If your kid overturns the car, I will definitely stand with Xie Xuan and push you again.

It's the best thing to do at the bottom of the hole.

The two veterans are now smiling very tacitly, looking at Wang Mi as if they were looking at a lamb to be slaughtered.

Tender and delicious.

Obviously, Wang Mi was the main talent cultivated by the Langya Wang Clan during this period, and now it seems that he has some ability.

If Wang Mi can be beaten down, the Langya Wang clan will fall into silence for a long period of time. This will be a good thing for a powerful family like Xie and Huan.

After receiving Wang Mi's affirmative answer, the two generals were very satisfied, chatting and laughing, Xie Xuan even put the chess game on again, but wanted to pull Huan Yi to kill again.

Huan Chong did not have such elegance. He has always been a vulgar person, and his favorite is wine, sex and wealth.

At this moment, he got up and was about to leave.

Wang Mi seized the opportunity and quickly followed.

He smiled and said, "General Huan, what are you going to do?"

Huan Chong was stunned for a while, why did he come here again, his face is really thick.

"Go to the game, are you going?"

Is not this nonsensical?

You have asked, can I not go!

"Of course!"

Before Huan Chong could take a step, Wang Mi was already striding forward, as if he was more excited than him.

The ancient gambling game, Xiao Wang has never seen before, now is the opportunity.

When the ancient soldiers were not fighting, it was very boring.Under normal circumstances, when preparing for war, you can only live in the military camp, and you can't go out for shopping, and you can't see a little lady, and it's boring.

With tens of thousands of poor and boring strong men staying together, what entertainment can they do?

Unhealthy ones are definitely not good, and those who hurt the body are also not good. You have to keep a good body to fight!

What else can be done then?
How can the soldiers have some fun?

Gambling seems to be the only option.

In fact, by the time of the Jin Dynasty, paper was already a relatively common writing material, with higher production and lower prices.

As long as officials and eunuchs can consume it, the top soldiers in the barracks naturally have no money.

However, all gambling equipment can be recycled, and it is not impossible to use paper to make a deck of cards.

On the way, Wang Mi suddenly thought of the kind of flying flower cards that were popular in the late Tang Dynasty. This kind of flying flower cards is different from the contemporary popular Western European poker. There are no points on paper, only characters.

It is also made of paintings, and the image of the characters is used to distinguish the size, such as generals, soldiers, civil servants, etc., which are all official positions in the court, and the names that ordinary villagers have heard of, and can also distinguish the size of the characters.

And according to the size of the characters, you can play cards.

In comparison, such flying flower cards are much more interesting than the popular gambling methods in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

Comparing the north and the south, the gambling equipment in the north is much more advanced than that in the south.

At this time in the north, under the influence of Hu Feng, a game of chess called "holding lance", also known as "double land", became popular.

Although this game of chess also has the nature of gambling, its gameplay is more diverse. The most distinctive feature of backgammon is its board.

Various patterns are drawn on the wooden chessboard, including trees, flowers, and even landscapes.

Backgammon also has a sieve with points engraved on it, and different points are set on the chessboard according to the lines of the scenery. According to different points, you can move on the chessboard. Whoever walks out of the chessboard first will win.

In the hinterland of the south, the most popular now is the Chipu, which has been popular since the Han Dynasty.

The so-called fenugreek, due to its long history, not many real objects have been unearthed. I only know that it seems to be a relatively simple gambling method to count points, which is compared with size.

In general, this gambling method mainly relies on luck and technology, and has little to do with winning or losing gambling.

However, what kind of utensils were used in the cilantro, Wang Mi had only heard of its shape, but had never seen it.Maybe you can open your eyes today.

Wang Mi followed Huan Chong all the way to the rear barracks, where many military tents were also established.There were too many soldiers gathered at Yuanjiang Shu this time. Only those of a certain level could live in a house. The general big-headed soldiers could only live in military tents.

After a heavy rain, the weather is humid and hot, which is actually not very friendly to soldiers with limited living conditions.

However, the soldiers didn't care, they raised their arms and sat on the gambling table, not afraid of sweating.
