Chapter 270 Bet
Duan Zhixuan did not rush to answer, but thought about it carefully before setting the rules of gambling as if he was sure to win:
First, the Marquis of Zhongyi could recruit 500 people as reserve soldiers of the Right Guard.
Secondly, after I wait for you for three months to train, we will conduct an open competition under the witness of Your Majesty.
Third, the content of our battle is military and battle formation, rather than fighting alone.
The fourth...
After saying that, he looked at the court officials as provocatively.
As a cunning guy, every rule is obviously extremely unfavorable to Yang Fan.
He used the newly recruited military soldiers to compete with the Ace Army for three months. Everyone present did not think that Yang Fan had a chance to win.
Cheng Yaojin and others couldn't help but curse, and His Majesty Li Er's eyes were full of worries. Unexpectedly, Duan Zhixuan was so shameless.
But the soldiers are never tired of deceit and have no way to pick on his actions, so they can only hint that Yang Fan will not agree.
The Tang Dynasty War God Li Jing couldn't help but frown. Duan Zhixuan, as a long-time general who had experienced the battlefield, set such unfair rules, was really a bit out of style.
Yang Fan, a young man, is really not simple. He actually made the famous General of Right Guard so careful.
However, Duan Zhixuan's actions also made Li Jing nod secretly.
Because as an excellent general, you should have such a cautious attitude and you should not be slackened in the slightest because of your youth.
However, in Li Jing's opinion, even if Yang Fan is a young hero, his age is impossible to lead a group of new recruits to defeat the Right Guard, and the loss is a foregone conclusion.
He just wanted to see how Yang Fan should respond, whether to reject Duan Zhixuan's unreasonable request or face the difficulties.
Yang Fan glanced at Duan Zhixuan who was smug and couldn't help but secretly praise him in his heart.
No one who can break out of the sea of corpses and blood is indeed based on luck.
It can be said that compared with the difficulties caused by the prince, prince and others in the past, Duan Zhixuan put him in much greater pressure this time.
Seeing that Yang Fan was silent, Duan Zhixuan said teasingly: "Young people should know that the sky is so high, right? If you feel embarrassed, then just do this gambling battle. Seeing your young age, you just need to admit that you lost!"
In his opinion, as long as Yang Fan has no problem with his head, he will never dare to agree to his conditions.
However, he obviously misjudged Yang Fan's fighting spirit.
Although Yang Fan was not sure of winning, he was definitely not the one who had been rejecting before he started. He smiled indifferently and said, "I don't know how to write the word "lose" in this life. I've agreed to this bet!"
"Just admit defeat, a child can teach you... uh? Hiss!" Duan Zhixuan stroked his beard with one hand and said proudly.
I thought Yang Fan was going to admit defeat, but I didn't pay attention to what Yang Fan was saying. When he reacted, he suddenly became shocked and even pulled off several beards.
Duan Zhixuan stared at Yang Fan for a while, and asked in disbelief: "What did you say?"
Yang Fan smiled and directly squeezed the money: "Duke Bao is really old and deaf. Can you still eat now? If you feel embarrassed, then just do this gambling battle. Seeing your old age, you just need to admit that you lost!"
Yang Fan's sarcastic sensation and returned Duan Zhixuan's words intact, which made Duan Zhixuan blush with anger.
The officials who were watching the fun suddenly burst into laughter. For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall eased a lot.
But the mouth of this stick is so powerful, it is even more poisonous than a knife, which is so angry.
It’s better to be less troubled by this stick in the future. It seems that this guy not only has superb martial arts, but also can be so angry with a mouth. Didn’t he see Duan Zhixuan’s nose be crooked?
Duan Zhixuan glared at Yang Fan fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph, what's the point of being fooled? Don't cry when fighting."
As he said that, he swayed his sleeves and was ready to turn around and return to the general train.
But Yang Fan could not make him so relaxed, and said, "Slow down!"
Duan Zhixuan stopped and said unhappily: "What advice does Zhongyi Hou have?"
Yang Fan was not afraid at all and said directly: "Duke Bao Guo really bullies someone at a young age? Since it is a gambling battle, of course there must be bets. Will Duke Bao Guo really be confused?"
"Betting?" Duan Zhixuan frowned and looked at Yang Fan with his eyes alertly, obviously hesitating.
Yang Fan had an ideal and natural expression: "Of course there must be a bet. If someone loses, he will naturally be ineligible to go to the camp of the Right Guard Army again, but if you lose, you will not lose anything without losing, right?"
Duan Zhixuan asked carefully: "What do you want?"
It is very artistic to say this. If it is appropriate, he can agree. If it is not appropriate, he can directly refuse. It can be said that he can move forward and retreat freely.
Yang Fan smiled slightly and said, "If the elite soldiers who are trained day and night are not as good as new recruits who have been trained for three months, why would Bao Guo Gong go home to enjoy his old age? Do you think so?"
When Duan Zhixuan heard this, he was shocked. The hammer actually wanted to take his official position to the end. It was so hateful.
You should know that the Right Guard is the foundation of his position. Without the Right Guard as support, Duan Zhixuan would be like a tiger without sharp claws and teeth. What is different from a wealthy Lord?
This is something Duan Zhixuan, who was determined to carry forward the family, would never tolerate it, because without the support of the Right Guard, those aristocratic families would have to leave him.
Thinking of this, Duan Zhixuan refused firmly and said: "This bet is unfair..."
oh……
Yang Fan smiled and said, "Since Duke Bao said it was unfair, then I would increase my bargaining chips... If I lose, not only will I lose the position of serving as a military soldier, but I will resign from His Majesty as the Minister of Rites. What about it? Is this fair? If you talk about it in detail, Duke Bao Bao also took a lot of advantages. Alas, who made this person like to respect the elderly and love the young? Because of this personality, I suffered a lot of losses!"
Hearing Yang Fan's words, His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but pull the corner of his mouth, but he couldn't laugh out loud.
This kid is too shameless!
Respect the elderly and love the young?
Can this be related to you?
Not only is my age two older than you, but I am also your future father-in-law. I have never seen you "respecting the elderly"? It is already considered a good idea not to be angry to death by you.
Li Tai and other officials were even more amused and crying. This kid was so angry that he was not worth his life.
Even if you believe that the sow can climb a tree, you cannot believe that you respect the old and the young.
Take Zhang Zhongye, the former Minister of Rites, for example, not only did he lose his position as Minister of Rites, but he was also beaten by your kid and lying on the bed for a month.
If this is considered respect for the elderly and love for the young, then we can’t be called saints?
Duan Zhixuan was so angry that he trembled all over and looked at Yang Fan angrily.
Is I taking advantage? Are you suffering?
At a loss, Duan Zhixuan cursed in his heart.
I have been working hard for most of my life and earned it from the sea of blood.
How could you just give a secret recipe to cure the plague and get such a high position? That's fair?
Besides, although a minister of the Ministry of Rites plus a proxy for a camp is fair on the surface.
But can the Minister of Rites who have nothing to do with the general who holds real power?
It's simply nonsense.
Under the gaze of many civil officials, even Duan Zhixuan was dissatisfied, he did not dare to tell the truth in his heart.
