Chapter 95 Gambling

Gao Huaiyuan touched his chin and pondered for a while, muttering in his mouth: "Eight for one? It seems a little low! But it's okay! Let me ask you, how much did you bet on those two teams?"

Upon hearing this, Catcher Xing replied to Gao Huaiyuan with an angry expression on his face: "There is no need to talk about this! How could I bet on them? I am betting on Gaojiazhuang! County Captain Don't you believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's that I don't believe it at all! Let me tell you, if you bet on the opposing two teams this time, then you'll have to wait for the second half of the month to drink Northwest Wind! I have five hundred clubs here, Take it to me right now, put it on the Gaojiazhuang Archery Club, don’t tell others, it’s me who made the bet! If you dare to reveal a little bit of information, be careful of your dog legs!” Gao Huaiyuan said from his arms He took out a stack of ten sticks each and handed it to Xing Butou.

When Gao Huaiyuan thought of the method of this competition in the morning, he immediately sent people to rush back to the city, and spent [-] guan in Zuixianlou to make preparations, because he had expected that under such circumstances, the gambling house would They will never let this chance of making money go by. Instead of letting them make a lot of money, they might as well take the opportunity to trick them!So at this moment Gao Huaiyuan recruited the old gambler Xing Tutou.

Catcher Xing held this stack of banknotes, his eyes almost fell to the ground, and his hands trembled a little: "Master... Your lord! Aren't you going to lose your fortune to gamble? This is a big sum Ah! This... this... this... is too much! What's more, Gaojiazhuang has little chance of winning this time! You are... this is very risky!"

After seeing Gao Huaiyuan put out so much money to bet, Catcher Xing suddenly said excitedly that he slipped up, and slipped out that he bet on the other two teams.

Gao Huaiyuan curled his lips and said, "I told you to bet with it, so you can bet with it, don't waste your time! Now you are telling the truth! You still bet the money on the other two teams, this time I see you Where can I find the money for the second half of the month! Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, it's about to start!"

Xing Catcher was dizzy, so he went out with the pile of money in his arms, and suddenly caught a guard on the way, gritted his teeth and asked him: "Do you have any money on you? Lend it all to me. I will fight today!"

The arrester was taken aback by Xing Butou, and asked him with a question mark: "Brother Xing, haven't you already bet a lot? Why do you need to borrow money to bet?"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and give me the money, it will be too late! Hurry up, hurry up, maybe this time the blood will be lost!" Catcher Xing hurriedly rubbed his hands and stretched out his hands to feel the money in the guy's arms .

When the person in charge of accepting bets looked at the thick stack of sticks in the hands of Catcher Xing, he almost fell behind the table on the spot. He had seen many gamblers, but like today, Xing It is the first time he has encountered the scene of five hundred bets at once, but is it possible that Xing Tutou is poor and crazy?For the five hundred coins, I'm afraid this guy bought out the house!

"I said Catcher Xing! Haven't you already bet on it? How did you get so much money to bet? I dare not accept so much money!" Head receiving money in hand.

"Stop talking nonsense, do I like it? Do you care where I got the money? Is there a gambling shop like yours? If you don't dare to take the money, then you just close the stall and get out! Call your shopkeeper Come here, I want to see if you will pick up today or not! If I lose, I will admit it! Can I use you to worry about me?" Xing Botou is also a person who is used to rampant in the market, and he dare not After taking his money, he immediately slapped the table and turned his face, scolding him.

He made such a fuss about the gambling shop's plate, and it couldn't go on. The person in charge really didn't dare to accept such a large amount, but he didn't dare to offend Xing Butou, so he had to go to their shopkeeper to discuss it. After a while, a man with a mouse whisker ran over holding the corner of his robe, and smiled at Xing Butou from afar.

"It turned out to be Catcher Xing! Who do I think it is? Accept! Why don't you accept it? Our gambling shop has always valued honesty, and we accept anyone of any size! Besides, we don't have an upper limit! How much? What? Five hundred strings?" The guy ran over and made a generous statement at first, but after asking clearly, he also felt a little dizzy.

"Should I pick it up or not? I don't have time to chat with you! It's about to start, and I have to go back to maintain order!" Xing Butou shouted impatiently, patting the table.

The anecdote gritted his teeth, and came down cruelly: "Accept! Why don't you accept it! Come on, let Butou Xing accept it, and give Xing Butou a certificate! Which side do you want to bet this time?"

"Where is the bet on Gaojiazhuang! There is still this money, bet it too!" Said Catcher Xing and threw a handful of small coins on the table, making it look like he basically bet all his belongings, I'm afraid that even the happy money at the bottom of the box has been tossed out.

Hearing that he was going to bet all the money on the side of Gaojiazhuang, the onlookers were in an uproar, they all commented that Xing Butou must be poor and crazy.Now this guy will live on the street from now on!

Many people looked at Butou Xing with sympathy, as if they had seen him begging for food on the street with his family.

The shopkeeper of the gambling shop is also a ruthless person. After listening to it, his heart tightened. He felt that something was wrong this time, but he was also watching the competition, and he didn't think there would be any trouble. If there is one, they should have no chance of winning. He is still a little sure about this kind of thing, but in this way, the odds of Gaojiazhuang have been pulled down, from the original [-] to [-], to [-] to [-]. Fourth, seeing that the problem was not serious, he immediately took the money from Catcher Xing and issued a proof, thinking that you, Catcher Xing, wanted to die by yourself. No wonder I was cruel. If you lose, you will cry. How to explain to your wife and children!

With the sound of a gong, the afternoon competition officially began. Zhou Jun took nineteen Gaojiazhuang archers, packed them up, selected the equipment, and stepped into the arena, attracting applause from everyone. Psychologically sympathize with the weak, and feel that Gaojiazhuang has little chance of winning this time, which is too unfair to them, so although they bet on the other two teams, they sympathize with Gaojiazhuang psychologically, so when they enter the field, Everyone cheered louder.

The other two teams also walked into the arena immediately, and the leaders of their respective teams stared at the Gaojiazhuang people lined up on the opposite side. They felt a little suffocated, and felt that even if they won this competition, it would be a bit ineffective. , but judging from Gaojiazhuang's performance just now, they are definitely not opponents when they go up one-on-one, so the two teams are holding their breath, and they want this game to be good for Gaojiazhuang. Soon, they were lined up on the two wings of Gaojiazhuang's team with the momentum of cornering, forming a direct attack on Gaojiazhuang.

Zhou Jun looked coldly at the two opposing teams, and softly told the underlings around him: "Don't be afraid! They are not our opponents. Hold on! After a while, the sword and shield hand blocked the team on the left. People, the rest don’t care about the left hand, concentrate on my strength, storm the right wing, and after defeating the right wing, go back and deal with the left group of people! It’s a small scene! There’s nothing to be afraid of!”

Zhou Jun's calmness immediately made the nineteen archers under him feel more at ease. Most of them have never seen a real battlefield, and their psychological quality is definitely not as good as Zhou Jun's, but there are two teenagers who are lying on the ground. The people in Huzhuang each lead a group of people. As Zhou Jun's deputy, these two young men are good at martial arts, and their psychological quality is quite strong, and they did not show any nervousness.

As soon as the three pairs stood still, Zhou Jun roared in a deep voice, and the nineteen young men who followed him also roared sharply. The voices were uniform, and at the same time they took a big step forward with weapons. He made an active offensive posture, which frightened the opponents and the two teams.

Immediately, the momentum of the two teams was suppressed by a team from Gaojiazhuang, which frustrated their morale. The leaders of the two teams saw that they were not good, so they all started shouting, but the two teams They hadn't practiced together before, so the yelling seemed more chaotic, and the bluffing yells didn't come together, and the voice was not as majestic as Gaojiazhuang's side, which made their original idea of ​​improving morale suddenly fall into vacancy.

"Lieutenant Gao, who do you think will win this time?" Zhixian Liu knew that he was an outsider, so he finally raised the academic style of not being ashamed to ask, and asked Gao Huaiyuan.

"Hehe! From the judge's point of view, the Gaojiazhuang Bow and Archery Club will definitely win this time!" Gao Huaiyuan replied to Liu Zhixian with full confidence.

"Oh? Why do you see that? Although the people in the Gaojiazhuang Bow and Arrow Club are good, after all, they have a lot more opponents. Are you so sure that you can't be so sure?" Liu Zhixian immediately wondered. He leaned over, wanting to hear Gao Huaiyuan's explanation.

"My lords, what matters in a war is not a question of how many people there are, but a question of coordination and scheduling. The number of people in Gaojiazhuang may be small, but the cooperation is close, the deployment is good, and their morale is high. This point is generally understood by everyone. Understand, on the other hand, although the two teams have a large number of people, they are fighting on their own, without any cooperation at all. In this way, their advantages cannot be fully utilized. For the Zhuang Bow and Archery Club, after the battle, they will pull the two teams together as much as possible. In this way, the two teams will collide and disrupt their own cooperation. If you don't believe me, you can continue to read! Alright! Let's start!" Gao Huaiyuan explained to them in a sophisticated manner, at this time, the three teams in the field started to move and rushed towards the opponent.

As expected by Gao Huaiyuan, the people in Gaojiazhuang immediately separated out five sword and shield players and three spearmen, struggling to resist the team rushing up from the left, with the shields in front, blocking the opponent's attack, The three spearmen were behind, stabbing continuously, not seeking meritorious deeds, they first contained the opponent's offensive, and the opponent obviously wanted to break through their defense line in one fell swoop. Not only did they fail to break through the interception of these people, but they were poked at two people at once, and they were immediately ordered out by the temporary referee Guo Liang, which immediately disintegrated their offensive, and did not bring any substantial results to Gaojiazhuang. The eight people froze to block the charge of twenty of them, causing the opponent to be in chaos again.

And the remaining twelve people, under the leadership of Zhou Jun, combined their guns and shields to form a small circular formation. While charging, they constantly changed their positions, and quickly pressed to the right and rushed up. The team members followed Zhou Jun and shouted: "Sting!"

The seven gunmen immediately rushed out, using Zhou Jun as an arrow, they rushed into the opponent's formation, and eliminated four opponents in a blink of an eye, while the five remaining sword and shield fighters immediately covered the gunner's two wings , Blocked the opponent's gunner's spear, so that they could not cause damage to their own gunner, and also immediately disrupted the opponent's attack, and successfully drove them to the left.

"That's right! That's exactly what I want to do!" Gao Huaiyuan tapped his fingers slightly on his knee, nodding in satisfaction.

After Zhou Jun led the attack, he immediately reunited with the people on the other side and re-formed a slightly larger circular formation. He was still wandering, constantly looking for opportunities to wipe out the enemy.

And after the three sides had a hedge, the other two teams were brought together by Gaojiazhuang's team. The confusion caused by the failure of the first attack, after such a collision, the two teammate armies were disturbed. Together, this time there will be something beautiful!

The two teams each had their own commands, so when they rushed together, the orders were mixed together, one called to form an formation, and another called to charge, and no one could figure out whether it was time to form an formation or to charge. So some people charged forward, while others retreated, and it was a mess.

Seeing the opponent's chaos, Zhou Jun immediately ordered to attack. The 20 people immediately changed into a front and arrow formation. The spearmen stepped forward alternately, and following Zhou Jun's command, they stabbed continuously, and within a short time, they stabbed many opponents, causing them to be eliminated immediately, but they only paid the price of being eliminated by one person, and they were defeated in a short time. The crowd of opponents broke up and ran everywhere.

This time, the opponent's formation immediately became scattered, and it was basically impossible to stop them again. Zhou Jun led his men to chase and kill these stragglers all over the field. It seemed that they were not as numerous as the opponent, but They seem to be surrounded by each other. They are chasing them and running around. When they stop, they will be stabbed by a spear or stabbed. When everyone stops, if they want to fight back, they have to face several high-ranking soldiers. The archers of the family village besieged at the same time, the more capable people fled in embarrassment and were able to escape, while the less capable people were immediately hit by multiple tricks and were expelled from the field. Turned around and rushed into the crowd of Gaojiazhuang, trying to kill him, but he only had time to kill an opponent, and he was stabbed and slashed by the people around him, and he was out of the game to watch the show!

Such a one-sided battle situation immediately made the audience lose their glasses all over the place. Many people shook their heads and clamored for ghosts. How could it be possible that twenty people beat forty people into such a mess?

But the fact is like this, Zhou Jun led his men to chase and kill in the arena for a long time, and finally surrounded the last few people. The Bow and Archery Club made a last-ditch effort, but unfortunately, under such circumstances, their stubborn resistance was useless.

Zhou Jun calmly ordered to close the encirclement circle, and was not in a hurry to attack. First, he surrounded the opponent tightly to reduce the "casualties" of his own people. All of them were stabbed out, and in the end there was only one person left, swinging a knife and trying to break through.

Gao Huaiyuan saw that the overall situation was settled, and the remaining one happened to be Dong Qiang, who won the championship in archery, and his sword skills were also good, but unfortunately he had no experience in leading troops, so he was defeated. Although he refused to admit defeat, he continued to fight. He resisted stubbornly, but Zhou Jun commanded the remaining thirteen people under him, and did not give this Dong Qiang a chance at all. Although Dong Qiang still succeeded in "killing" the three opponents when he was surrounded and killed him, but at the same time After being stabbed twice and shot twice, he was "killed" immediately!

Seeing such an ending, Catcher Xing stood behind Gao Huaiyuan, with his mouth open, clutching the voucher of the gambling house, he didn't speak for a long while, and cried out in his heart, luckily, luckily!

If Gao Huaiyuan hadn't placed a heavy bet on Gaojiazhuang to win, he would not have changed his mind and made another bet on Gaojiazhuang's side, otherwise, he would definitely lose everything this time.

But the gamblers who watched the game were in a miserable situation. They all wailed like mourners, and couldn't help cursing that the two bow and arrow clubs Dong Qiang belonged to were really incompetent. Forty people can't beat twenty people. Yun Yun, who grew up eating pig food, and Dong Qiang, who scolded each other, stared at each other, but they couldn't refute. They also felt that they had tried their best just now, but they just couldn't deal with the attack from Gaojiazhuang. Just now when they fought against the people from Gaojiazhuang, they didn't feel that the opponent was very powerful, and some people were even inferior to their skills, but they still ended up like this. Now they know what is meant by the cooperation of the battle formation !

For such an ending, apart from Gao Huaiyuan who was not surprised, many people thought it was sudden. Liu Zhixian even clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful, simply wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

The shopkeeper at the gambling house sat down on the ground at once. Just now he expected that Gaojiazhuang would lose, thinking that he could make a lot of money this time, but now seeing the ending, he was dumbfounded. Those who dared to bet on The money of those retail investors in Gaojiazhuang is easy to say, and they can't lose a lot of money. Based on Xing Butou's big bet, he will have to lose two thousand guan. In this way, he calculated it. , not only did he not earn much money, but he also lost a lot of money. It was tantamount to making a pot of rice for Xing Tutou for nothing, and he himself was busy.

The angry gambler almost cursed, and soon the winners flocked to exchange their bets, and the gambler began to cash in like a bitter gourd. Helping the arrester, walked towards him cheerfully...
