This battle to attack Qin shocked the world. Both sides participated in the battle with more than one million troops. It can be said that it was the largest battle in the past hundreds of years.
Although Xuan Guo was not directly involved, there was no doubt that he was paying attention all the time.
In the palace study, Prime Minister Yao Tingyu is reporting on the latest situation:
"It is reported that after the Ling Kingdom sent troops, King Huan poured out all his strength and ordered Xiang Ge to lead his army north to cut off Youzhou. The Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms are about to join forces."
"In this battle, except for Huan Guo's 150,000 troops, the other countries all had 300,000 troops. Wu Chu can be said to have used all his elite troops. The combined strength of the coalition forces exceeded 1 million. In front of the main battlefield, Shanyu Pass, the generals There will be an army of 900,000."
"And on the Qin side, the number of soldiers guarding the battle should be about 400,000."
"It can be judged from the movements of the coalition forces that the countries are determined to destroy Qin."
After he finished speaking, King Xuan shook his head slightly: "Forty thousand, against nine hundred thousand, King Qin really dares to fight, and he will advance the war."
"Yes." Yao Tingyu also sighed and said: "Although King Qin has the intention to fight, it is difficult to change the overall situation. The coalition army is twice that of Qin, and it is still superior in terms of strength. Even if the Qin army is a tiger and wolf army, , I’m afraid it’s impossible to resist.”
Even Xuan Xiang thinks so, let alone everyone in the world.
But King Xuan moved his beautiful eyes and said: "It's possible that King Qin is not a reckless man. Since he dares to take this battle, he must have thought of the consequences of the war."
Yao Tingyu didn't quite agree with this, but he didn't dare to refute it. Instead, he said: "But it's strange that in the face of a million troops, the King of Qin dared to fight, but the ministers of the Qin State didn't even ask for peace. meaning."
"How is this possible?" King Xuan smiled and said with a smile: "It must be King Qin who overcame everyone's opinions."
Yao Tingyu nodded and said tentatively: "Then, Your Majesty, our country will continue to stand still?"
King Xuan Feng Qingyun said calmly: "Three wolves fighting the evil tiger, it's such a good show, how can you not watch it..."
After the meeting with Yao Tingyu, King Xuan had nothing to do, so he called Xie Hongling and prepared to dress in casual clothes and go out of the palace to walk around.
Her breasts were perky and plump, so she could only wear a corset.
In the room, Xie Hongling was helping her. After finishing, King Xuan couldn't help but said: "It feels a little uncomfortable."
If the corset is too tight, it will inevitably affect her. Xie Hongling tentatively said: "Your Majesty, you are so beautiful, why do you need to dress like a man?"
"No, just Young Master." King Xuan said, and began to tie the ribbon.
After everything was done, the two of them left the palace, both dressed as men, walking in the market.
King Xuan was dressed in brocade clothes and had hair tied with jade hairpins. She was extremely beautiful, with delicate facial features, red lips and white teeth. Dressed up by the young master, she really looked like a handsome young man, as good as jade.
It's just that the skin is too fair, the eyelashes are too thick, and the eyes are bright and moving.
The Xuanzhou market was bustling with people coming and going. Xie Hongling was afraid that something would happen to her, so she couldn't help but say: "Miss..."
"Huh?" King Xuan glanced at her dissatisfied.
Xie Hongling quickly changed her words: "Sir, there are too many people here. It's best for Master Yang Zhao to send some men to protect them."
"No need." King Xuan refused and directly changed the topic: "By the way, what did Xiao Yuan eat at the roadside stall last time he came to us?"
"It seems...it's scallion pancake?" Xie Hongling thought for a moment and asked.
"Go buy two." King Xuan said directly.
"Ah? Sir... Master, with your identity, how can you..."
"What? Go quickly."
"Okay, okay..."
Xie Hongling was helpless. There happened to be a small stall not far away, so she had to find it, took out the broken silver, bought two pieces, and hurried back to King Xuan.
The latter took one, took a bite and said, "Well, it's really good. The traitor knows how to enjoy it."
"Traitor, traitor?" Xie Hongling couldn't react.
"Isn't Xiao Yuan a traitor?" King Xuan smiled, took another gentle bite, and started chewing.
"Oh..." Xie Hongling looked at King Xuan and then at the cake in his hand.
The two of them ate and walked around, and came to a luxurious place called Yuhua Building.
This building is located in a busy market and covers a large area. It can be said to be the first restaurant in Xuanzhou.
But right now, the place is very busy, and the noise inside can be heard even if you stand outside.
King Xuan couldn't help but paused and was a little curious: "Why are there so many people? Come on, let's go in and join in the fun."
"Young Master..." Xie Hongling wanted to stop him, but King Xuan had already stepped in, so she had to follow him quickly.
In the restaurant, the hall was full of people. There was a huge square table, which seemed to be used for gambling. There were scribes writing and registering beside it. On the second floor, there was a steward who was shouting loudly:
"Everyone, everyone, please feel free to place your bets. This game is personally presided over by our big shopkeeper, and the entire Yun's firm is a guarantee. Who will win and who loses in the battle to attack Qin? After you have considered it, please place your bets and register. Get the Voucher, when the time comes, you can withdraw money with the voucher..."
"I believe everyone knows about the credibility and connections of our big shopkeeper. Once there are any changes on the battlefield, we have channels to learn about it, and the information can be sent back as soon as possible..."
It turns out that this is a big gamble.
Some wealthy businessmen took the opportunity to make a fortune and bet on the war between Qin and Qin. Anyway, this matter had nothing to do with Xuanguo.
There were a lot of people at the scene, including wealthy businessmen.
Xie Hongling reminded him in a low voice beside King Xuan: "Yun's business is the largest businessman in our Xuan Kingdom. Young Master, should such a big bet be banned?"
"No need." King Xuan raised his hand out of habit, his beautiful eyes moved, and he whispered: "Go and ask someone to bring ten boxes of gold."
"What!?" Xie Hongling was startled.
"Go and do it." King Xuan repeated.
"This, this...is." She insisted. How dare Xie Hongling not listen.
After the steward's statement, the atmosphere at the scene became more and more intense, and many people began to be eager to try it. Soon, with one person taking the lead, many people couldn't help but start buying.
As for this battle, no one is obviously optimistic about Qin. Almost everyone buys that the other countries will win, and Qin's odds are also extremely high at one to ten.
What is the concept of 900,000 fighting 400,000? It is better than a force of 500,000!
As for Xie Hongling, she didn't dare to leave King Xuan here alone. After quickly conveying the order to the following, she hurried back.
At this time, King Xuan had found a corner to sit down and was watching the show.
After Xie Hongling came back, she also hurriedly walked to her side: "Young Master."
King Xuan glanced at her with a slight smile: "How's it going? Is it done?"
"It's been arranged and will be here soon." Xie Hongling returned.
"Yes." King Xuan nodded, looked at the field again, and smiled softly: "It seems that no one in the world is optimistic about the Qin army. Since there is such a bet, we will join in the fun."
