The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 345 Gambling (2)

"It's my honor to work for His Highness the Eighth Prince. I dare not complain. As for my cousin's promotion, it's my cousin's luck. My luck is not good, so I can't blame others." Xia Jun said.

When Jiang Chao heard the words, he took a deep look at Xia Jun. Xia Jun was an unfathomable person. At the beginning, the imperial decree ordered him not to be an official, but Xia Jun suddenly became Ye Li's hidden staff.Ye Li is now Jiang Chao has figured out some of his habits, and he never uses incompetent people.Xia Jun's status is already special, but he must have great ability to make Ye Li look up to him.Jiang Chao is a narrow-minded person, although he also has a lot of taboos towards Xia Jun, but now the situation is different, so he has no choice but to conspire with Xia Jun.

"To be honest, cousin, this time it is His Highness the Eighth Prince's intention." Knowing that he would not get any benefit from practicing Tai Chi like this, Jiang Chao simply made his words clear.He said: "His Highness the Eighth Highness ordered me to do this, but I think this matter can go further, but I need the help of my cousin."

Xia Jun stretched out his hand slowly, and poured himself a glass of wine. The wine was slightly rippling, exuding a bit of an alluring mellow aroma.Xia Jun picked up the wine glass, but he didn't rush to drink it. Instead, he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was smelling the slight aroma of the wine.Slowly, he said: "Oh? Then, cousin, what good is it for me if I do this? How far can this matter go?"

He was not in a hurry to ask what was the matter or how to do it, but the first thing he asked was the result, which showed that Xia Jun was a person who didn't care about using any means. He only asked for a satisfactory result for anything.

Jiang Chao lowered his voice, but there was a chill on his face: "What's the result? It depends on how much bargaining chips your cousin has."

"How is the bargaining chip of the entire Xia family?" Xia Jun smiled slightly.

Jiang Chao was taken aback, and carefully looked at the person in front of him. Xia Jun had a handsome face, but his eyes were a little gloomy, but a little light suddenly burst into his eyes, like a dying wolf suddenly finding a prey in the wilderness. Crazy excited.Jiang Chao barely suppressed the horror in his heart, thinking that this cousin is indeed a lunatic.On the face, he said solemnly: "Then, I assure my cousin, once this matter is over, there will no longer be any general mansion, no Jinyiwei in the world, let alone... two brothers and sisters Jiang Ruan." He said: "Then At that time, Princess Hong'an should personally deliver it to my cousin, and my cousin can do whatever he wants."

This bargaining chip... is really tempting.A pair of slightly upturned winking eyes appeared in front of Xia Jun's eyes. When those winking eyes were not looking at people, they seemed to be separated by a thin layer of mist, cold and calm. Ignorant and childish, someone with maddening contempt.

For the first half of his life, he was well-clothed and well-fed. He could get whatever he wanted, and he could get whatever he wanted.But this balance was broken by Jiang Ruan. She only used a small trick to completely collapse his colorful life.He didn't have much obsession with being an official, but Jiang Ruan challenged his dignity.In his opinion, if he fell in love with Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan should obediently obey, who knows that this is not an obedient house cat, but a terrifying female leopard, with only slightly brightened paws, Let people taste her power.

It's just that no matter how powerful a leopard is, it's just a prey.Over the years, he watched Jiang Ruan change from an unfavored daughter who was raised on Zhuangzi to the eldest daughter whom everyone feared in the Jiang family, from a daughter of an official family to a princess who the queen mother relied on, and watched her fight. Jiang Li and Jiang Susu were defeated, Xia Yan was defeated, and even Xia Jiaojiao's matter must have been a part of her.He had never seen such a woman before, but he became interested in her because of this.

Such a woman, with deep scheming, strong and tough, beautiful appearance and rotten heart, really suits his appetite.But... If she dared to reject him, she would have to pay the due price.

Jiang Chao's proposal is really too tempting.

A sigh flashed in his eyes, if Jiang Ruan would obediently cling to him, it would be good, but unfortunately, he knew what kind of person Jiang Ruan was, and Jiang Ruan would not lower her noble head like anyone else, so he Only to chop off that beautiful head.He said: "My cousin's proposal is really interesting..."

Jiang Chao stared at him closely, and slowly, he heard Xia Jun's remaining words: "You can give it a try." Jiang Chao then heaved a sigh of relief.

Xia Jun looked at the wine glass casually, and said, "I don't know what my cousin wants to do?" It must not be an ordinary thing to wipe out Jinyiwei and the General's Mansion in one go.Now that the Zhao family and Jin Yiwei are far away at the border, they must start from the battlefield.

A treacherous smile suddenly appeared on Jiang Chao's face: "The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the food and grass go first. Even if Jin Yiwei and Zhao Jiajun have great abilities, they can't bear to run out of ammunition and food."

……

Leaving aside the battle of Xi Rong, the Jinyiwei has repeatedly reported good news. The morale of the Jinyiwei has greatly increased, and they have regained several lost territories. Guan Lianghan's injuries have gradually stabilized. In the previous brave land, even sophisticated weapons and tactics could not save the defeat.

Everyone was surprised to find that Xiao Shao, King of Jin Ying, known as the "rebellious minister and thief" of the Great Jin Dynasty, could even arrange good tactics.His fighting style is different from that of Guan Lianghan and Jiang Xinzhi. It is a completely different style of acting, cold, cruel, and absolutely autumnal.The Jinyiwei he brought out was almost like an unbeatable iron man, and his bravery was like a lone wolf on the grassland, no, even the lone wolf on the grassland couldn't match it, with one against ten, it was unstoppable.

In front of such a team, the soldiers of the Tianjin Kingdom were terrified and retreated steadily.Xiao Shao used a style of fighting that didn't look like a war to win frequently. Since his arrival, the war with the Jin Kingdom in the same day is no longer like a war, but more like a unilateral massacre.

But even so, the battle between the Tianjin Kingdom and the Dajin Dynasty did not fall into dust overnight. At that time, in order to catch up with the schedule on the march, they tried to pack lightly as much as possible, and the food and grass were also brought according to the rules of close combat.The place where the battle with the Tianjin Kingdom is located in the desolate desert, there are no herdsmen, cattle and sheep around, and the food is really scarce.The way of fighting to support war is only suitable for predatory wars, and it is too late and not allowed now.According to the rules of the Great Jin Dynasty, the people at the post station in the capital would gather the food and grass together and transport them, and Master Zhang, the leader of the supply troop, would be in charge of transporting them.

Zhang Ji has been the leader of the supply troop for many years, and the travel and consumption on the road are the shortest.Because the food and grass brought in the previous war had almost been consumed, and now the treasury can't allocate too much food, and now all the food collected is collected from the people everywhere. In a short period of time, this The batch of grain and grass will be quickly transported to the border of the Tianjin Kingdom, which is the few remaining reserves of the Great Jin Dynasty.Xiao Shao must win the war before the food and grass are exhausted, otherwise, the food and grass will be exhausted and he will lose.
