Wu Zhe said that the old marshal was treacherous and cunning, not because the three of them joined forces to take advantage, but because he judged the situation and put his own people very low.
Emperor Xuanwu made a bet with Old Marshal Hong. Although the emperor sent Qiu Nv to be his chess player in the future, Old Marshal Hong's selection was quite interesting.
The three young generals are all young people, but with the identity of Emperor Xuanwu and the veteran female generals sent by him, how can a young general fight against the enemy
Do you think it is better for the teenager to win or lose? Winning would be a slap in the face of the female general Xuanwu. Female general Qiu is considered an old figure and an important combat force among the female generals. The Emperor Xuanwu will also look bad. If it is implied that the young general has lost, it will not be a low blow to the enthusiasm of the young people, and it will affect the future career, especially the impression in the emperor's mind.
Now that the old marshal asked the three young generals to go together, it was very interesting.
Even if the young man wins, it can be understood as the joint efforts of the opponent's three young players. In this way, Qiu Nu will be able to come down to the stage.
Although the three young generals were unhappy, since Old Marshal Hong had already spoken, they naturally wouldn't have any disputes.
The game of marching chess begins.
Two tents were set up outside the hall, one of which was General Qiu and the three young generals. From time to time, their own messengers go back and forth to and from the tent. In the game, as the generals of the army, they rely entirely on the words of the messengers to command operations and receive information. This is equivalent to the role of the messenger as a meteor scout.
Emperor Xuanwu and Marshal Hong acted as referees, sitting in the hall and collecting news from the messengers in the two tents.
They are equivalent to a centralized point of the battlefield, assuming the battle orders of both sides into the virtual battlefield, and conveying the expected battle results back through the messengers of both sides.
"The old minister's surname is Hong, and the homonym is red. The side of the three brats under me should be called the red side." Old Marshal Hong appointed the uniform colors of the messengers of the three young generals.
"My side. Let's call it Huang Fang." Emperor Xuanwu handpicked a few messengers and asked them to change into yellow vests.
Wu Zhe thought to himself, is this the yellow mandarin jacket bestowed by the Qing Dynasty
But today, the two referees seemed a little careless. Because while they were dealing with the battle situation, they actually started eating.
Emperor Xuanwu sat at the front of the main hall, with Marshal Hong at the bottom left and Wu Zhe at the bottom right.
"Your Majesty, this veteran respects you." Old Marshal Hong was fond of drinking. He mingled with Emperor Xuanwu, and even drank non-stop with other generals.
Other courtiers did not dare to toast to the emperor lightly, and he was the only one who could do so.
Wu Zhe actually sat at the chief seat, accompanying the emperor. Of course, this is not her voluntary position, but arranged by Emperor Xuanwu.
So her expression was a little awkward, as if shy and jerky in the eyes of others.
In fact, many people below think that Emperor Xuanwu is playing Zhou Zhiruo's idea? Such a beautiful woman accompanied the drinking emperor, no matter how she looked, she looked like a concubine.
Fortunately, Zhou Zhiruo's clothes were Yuan Healing Hall's costumes, and the vermilion between her brows was very obvious, otherwise everyone would think that the Emperor Xuanwu had already succeeded.
oops. I don't know whether Prince Mo and Emperor Xuanwu will compete for beauty. A lot of crooked minds began to worry. This is the way for the Great Wu Kingdom to bring about chaos, how else can we say that the beauty is a disaster? Zhou Zhiruo's eyebrows this week can indeed be called a vixen who can overwhelm the city and the country.
Because of Wu Zhe's presence, even the atmosphere of marching chess at the banquet was diluted. Many people didn't pay much attention to the competition between the three young generals and the female general Qiu.
[Huang Fang sent three thousand light cavalry to harass the Red Fang's rear camp.]
[The rear battalion of the red side slowly pierces the antlers as a refusal, and the rain of arrows shoots the ground.]
[The red side sent 3,000 infantry to occupy the upper reaches of the river.]
[Huang Fang re-rides a thousand charges.]
On the contrary, female general Tang and several female generals have been paying attention to the orders from the military tents on both sides, and also paid attention to the seemingly random battlefield feedback from Emperor Xuanwu and Marshal Hong.
Emperor Xuanwu and Marshal Hong chatted and laughed while drinking. But during the chat and jokes, there was no need to discuss, and each of them casually stated the battlefield simulation effect produced by the different military orders on both sides.
[Huang Fang's light cavalry did not succeed in disturbing. Lost five hundred horses.]
[Seventy percent of the 3,000 infantry on the red side were wiped out, and the rest were wounded or had no fighting spirit. Sentenced to be wiped out.]
[Huang Fang's heavy cavalry lost 300, and the rest need to be nourished for a day before they can fight again, otherwise they will be sentenced to half of their attack power.]
These are the battlefield feedbacks sent back by Emperor Xuanwu and Marshal Hong through the messengers. The female general Qiu and the three junior generals in the two military tents are just like simulating the battlefield. Based on the reports of meteor scouts, they synthesize battlefield information and make tactical changes at any time.
This is the first time Wu Zhe has seen such a game.
This is simply a simulated war without computers. It's just that there are artificial elements in it, and it can't completely simulate the battlefield. But it is already a very attractive way to simulate war. Wu Zhe was very interested.
After the first round, General Qiu lost.
Old General Hong didn't say a word, neither did the rest of the generals who were eating.
Everyone was waiting for Emperor Xuanwu to speak.
"Young people are formidable, Commander Zhou, female general Qiu needs to improve her fingering skills." Emperor Xuanwu said to Wu Zhe with a smile.
"Yes." Wu Zhe quickly responded, "This subordinate has neglected his duty."
"Hey. What's wrong with this? It's just a game." Emperor Xuanwu chuckled and waved his hands: "But since you think you're at fault, you'll be punished with a glass of wine!"
"The subject will be punished for obeying the order." Wu Zhe raised his glass and drank.
Everyone watched her drinking and applauded.
This is for the emperor.
Some people secretly shouted in their hearts: okay, okay, just watch, the emperor wants to get the beauty drunk so he can do it. This old cow eats tender grass, don't really cause disasters for the country. Who doesn't know that Prince Mo and Miss Zhou have a somewhat ambiguous relationship
Of course, Prince Mo's rumors and gossips are just common sense, but everyone listened seriously.
Old Marshal Hong said: "The three generals on my side conspired together, and it took half an hour to win against a female general. It's really not an honor."
After the two parties exchanged polite remarks, no one would mind the apology of General Qiu's return. Even if it was Qiu Nujiang herself, she wouldn't lose face.
In the second game, it was Tang female general who played in person.
It was not appointed by Emperor Xuanwu, but the female general Tang took the initiative to invite Ying.
"It's been a long time since I played marching chess, and I really want to try my hand at it." Tang female general said so, and glanced at Wu Zhe: "Besides, there is Miss Zhou drinking in the back, basically I am not afraid of losing."
Everyone laughed.
In fact, filling beautiful women with drinks is something you can't ask for, and everyone is happy to see the excitement.
Everyone continued to drink and eat, and the battlefield deduction game of marching chess continued.
As a result, in the second round, female general Tang also lost. (To be continued..)
