"Cavalry arrayed for battle?!"
Wang Jian slammed the table angrily, stood up suddenly and shouted: "This kid's head was bitten by a dog?!"
He never expected that his grandson, who had always had high hopes for him, would make such a stupid mistake, and he couldn't help but be very angry.
At the same time, the generals who heard Wang Jian's scolding also stopped talking and looked towards the racecourse.
I saw that Wang Li's cavalry actually entered the battlefield with their horses next to each other, arranged neatly like an infantry formation.
What's even weirder is that the weapons they hold in their hands are not traditional swords, but long and thin wooden spears.
Originally, cavalry formations had limited the space for performance, but now they still use long guns, which further restricts mobility and loses the greatest advantage of cavalry, which is flexibility.
I wonder what Wang Li was thinking about such an arrangement?
It's just Qin Zheng playing with a single string and messing around!
"Old General, I see why this posture looks a bit like infantry fighting?"
Du He frowned and said, "Is this boy Wang Li imitating you and using your best tactics on the cavalry?"
"What a mess! Don't I know how to use cavalry?!"
Wang Jian brushed his sleeves angrily, then squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the team below, and found that there were many familiar faces inside.
Combined with Ying Zheng's previous order to seal off the racecourse, his heart suddenly moved, and he seemed to understand something. He sat down again and turned to look at Meng Yi; "I wonder what Lang Zhongling thinks?"
"this"
Meng Yi was stunned for a moment, and then he looked thoughtful.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Meng Yi.
After about a moment, Meng Yi said thoughtfully: "I think it was probably the young master who did it."
"Master?"
Everyone was surprised for a moment and nodded suddenly.
The First Emperor had many sons, and the only son that everyone could think of instantly was Zhao Hao.
But even for Zhao Hao, everyone still found it incredible, and even thought he was joking.
"How come you don't have any military knowledge at all, young master? Did all the lessons you learned from the old lieutenant be in vain?"
"Yes! Young Master's talent is not in the military. It's a pity."
"Young Master is not a god, how can he know everything? The key is that Wang Li has no brains. He believes whatever the Young Master says and does it."
Seeing all the generals talking about it, Wang Jian frowned with a solemn expression: "Young Master behaves strangely, and I didn't understand it this time either."
After hearing this, the last chance of the generals was gone.
Everyone felt that Wang Li had made a huge mistake, and this mistake would inevitably lead to the failure of this exercise.
Thinking of this, the generals couldn't help but feel heavy, and there was no longer the atmosphere of chatting and laughing before.
At this moment, Che Ying suddenly remembered something, tilted his head and said: "Old General, has the hand you opened been closed?"
"Um?"
Wang Jian was stunned for a moment and seemed unable to react, but he heard Che Ying mutter again: "Since there is nothing we can do, we might as well minimize the loss and adjust the odds."
"Yes, old general!"
Du He's eyes widened and he immediately said: "We haven't sealed the deal yet. Seeing Wang Li's formation like this, Yang Duanhe will definitely be outnumbered. As a result, the old general will probably lose a lot based on the previous ratio. "
After hearing this, Wang Jian finally reacted and immediately shouted to his side: "Wang Cheng!"
On the other side, Yang Duan and a series of generals were watching the battle.
When they saw Wang Li's cavalry entering, they couldn't help but burst into joy. They seemed to have seen the cavalry being beaten to pieces, and they drank like celebratory wine.
"The Wang family has two Che Hous, but I didn't expect to cultivate such a Wang Li. What a misfortune for the family!"
Ma Xing stroked his beard and joked with a smile.
"Just now, that kid was so arrogant that General Yang was no match for him. He was really stupid."
Zhao Ping sneered and said, "If the old general didn't choose Wang Li and chose him as deputy general, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so embarrassing."
Hearing this, Wang Wan, who had always been at odds with Wang Jian, couldn't help but laugh: "Why haven't you started yet? Has he changed his mind? Hehe, that's right. If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to compete with him to avoid embarrassment!"
Ma Xing narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully: "I heard that the old general opened a handicap in the city. Maybe he was afraid of losing too much, so he deliberately delayed the game and prepared to make amends."
"The old man is really shameless!"
Wang Wan angrily slapped the case and said, "I defrauded His Majesty of so much money, and now I still want to make money. It's really abominable!"
"That's according to the old prime minister's opinion."
Zhao Ping turned to look at Wang Wan.
Wang Wan ignored him and turned to look at Ma Xing: "How is Young Master Hao doing? He likes to participate in this matter the most. There is no way he will remain silent."
"I heard that he beat General Yang by two hundred gold!"
"Oh? You said Young Master Hao also suppressed General Yang?"
Wang Wan twisted his eyebrows, then raised his head and looked at the other side, snorting coldly: "It's not that easy to escape unscathed. I won't let you bleed this time, but I'll get you injured."
As he spoke, he turned to his side and shouted: "Wang Fu!"
At the same time, Zhao Hao watched the battle stage.
"Sir, I just got the news that the number of people suppressing Yang Duan and Sheng has doubled."
"Sir, I just got the news that General Wang has ordered people to adjust the odds."
"Sir, I just got the news that the odds against Wang Lisheng have reached a new high."
"Sir, I just received news that the old prime minister, Marquis Wu'an and the others have taken action."
Hearing several guards reporting back and forth to him, Zhao Hao's lips almost reached the back of his head, and a smile that showed his scheming was successful quickly emerged.
After thinking for a moment, he turned to Yan Le and said, "Put all our belongings on Wang Li!"
"promise."
This time Yan Le turned around without any doubts.
Zhang Cang watched him leave and turned to look at Zhao Hao: "Young Master just suppressed General Yang, was it a cover-up?"
"Yes and no."
Zhao Hao said with a smile: "Actually, if the banker wants to win money, he also needs to guess our hearts. We will buy whoever has a higher winning rate, but according to the original odds, the banker will definitely lose money;
Therefore, when no one is buying, the bookmaker will usually increase the odds to attract people to place bets;
Once there are more people buying, he will inevitably lower the odds! "
"Why?"
Zhang Cang looked puzzled and said: "Isn't the banker guaranteed to make profits without losing money?"
"Guaranteed profit without losing money is achieved by adjusting the odds. How is it possible to maintain the same odds all the time?"
Zhao Hao rolled his eyes at Zhang Cang and said: "For example, the dealer sets the odds to 3, which means that the dealer does nothing and makes a net profit of two hundred. But think about it, no matter what the outcome, the dealer has to pay three hundred in compensation." go out;
Therefore, if the dealer wants to make money, he has to adjust the odds, for example to 2. No matter what the result is, if the dealer takes two hundred and loses two hundred, does he make a profit of one hundred? "
"I see."
Zhang Cang nodded in understanding.
Zhao Hao glanced at him and added: "In addition, the dealer will also adjust the odds based on the money in the pool;
For example, if you bet too much to win and too little else, it is not very coordinated, so you adjust the winning odds lower and the losing odds higher;
Everyone will think in their hearts, why not give it a try, the donkey cart will become a horse carriage, and when the odds change, the money will also change.
The bookmaker’s idea is that you can’t put all your eggs in one basket. The more balanced your bets are, the smaller your risks will be.”
At this point, he paused and said with emotion: "In general, no matter how the dealer adjusts, there is only one purpose, which is what you said, to make sure profits without losing money!"
"Young Master is a great talent!"
Zhang Cang saluted Zhao Hao with admiration on his face, feeling quite like 'listening to your words is worth ten years of reading'.
Zhao Hao said meaningfully: "Does Mr. Zhang understand my intention now?"
"Understood."
Zhang Cang stroked his beard and nodded with a smile.
If the dealer wants to maintain a delicate balance throughout the entire process, then Zhao Hao's intention is to destroy this balance.
Just like that, in the "undercurrent" that no one could see, the cavalry battle drill began.
But upon hearing Wang Jian's order, Yang Duanhe and his cavalrymen pulled out their wooden swords, mobilized their horses, and rushed out with the sharp arrow formation commonly used by Qin Qi.
The thunderous sound of horse hooves resounded throughout the racecourse.
at the same time.
The cavalry regiment led by Wang Li also began to urge their horses to move slowly in a tight formation amidst the low horns.
"Stomp stomp stomp"
As Yang Duan and the other side accelerated unilaterally, the distance between the two sides decreased sharply.
The cavalry guards with rich combat experience have formed a cavalry arrow that penetrates directly into the heart of the enemy.
As the commander-in-chief, Yang Duanhe was at the forefront of the arrows, and the lieutenants on his left and right were also extremely brave pioneer generals.
On the other hand, Wang Liyifang didn't seem to be panicked at all, and still maintained the same speed as when he entered the field.
Soon, the speed of the guard cavalry reached the extreme, and it was really lightning fast.
Under the leadership of Yang Duanhe, it became even more aggressive.
"What's going on? Why doesn't Wang Li speed up?"
Du He, who was sitting at Wang Jian's viewing platform, frowned and couldn't help but feel annoyed: "Forget it if you lose your flexibility and maneuverability, now you don't even need speed anymore. Does this mean you have given up completely?"
"Gongzi Hao doesn't want to work hard, that's because he has many brothers, and Wang Li is the only one in the Wang family. What is he thinking?"
"Perhaps he wants to use infantry tactics to deal with cavalry?"
"Is this considered a deviant approach?"
"Hahaha!"
The generals burst into laughter, regardless of whether Wang Li was one of their own.
Anyway, they have already admitted defeat.
But Meng Yi frowned, and then said solemnly: "Maybe we can win with infantry tactics."
"Win a shit!"
Wang Jian slammed his hand on the table: "This is simply nonsense!"
"Ugh——!"
At this moment, a loud horn sound suddenly sounded in the racecourse.
The order is like a mountain.
Wang Li's cavalry began to accelerate evenly.
But in the eyes of the onlookers, it was still too slow for them to accept. Meng Yi, who had just gained a glimmer of hope, was confused: "What on earth do you think, Master? Why did you arrange for Wang Li to fight like this?"
"No! Look!"
Xianyang ordered Che Ying to shout suddenly.
All the generals looked at him.
Che Ying raised his hand and pointed at Wang Li's cavalry and introduced: "Although the Major General's cavalry is advancing in formation and giving up flexibility, you should pay attention to his formation!"
As soon as these words came out, all the generals looked at the racecourse again.
"How is this possible?"
"Yeah, how come his formation hasn't changed at all after such a long time?"
"Not only the formation, but also the distance has not changed."
Wang Jian seemed to have discovered something, and frowned: "I didn't pay attention just now. Now it seems that there was no collision at such a small distance. It is simply incredible."
As he spoke, the anger on his face disappeared, and he said with a smile: "Your Majesty is so wise! No wonder your Majesty closed the racecourse, probably because he wanted us to see this new strategy!"
After hearing this, all the generals looked at each other.
Suddenly, Du He slammed the table: "Oh no! We were fooled! We shouldn't have adjusted the odds!!"
