Woo~Woo~Woo~Woo~

The desolate sound of trumpet awakened the sleeping earth, and the endless drums added some unspeakable blood to the prosperous city of Luoyang.

As the deadline approaches, the gambling battle between Ye Zhao and Yuan Shu has recently become a hot topic in Luoyang City. From princes and nobles to the common people, they are very curious about Ye Zhao's training results over the past three months.

What would those five hundred delicate palace maids trained by Ye Zhao to look like after three months?

Most people look at this gambling battle with a joke mentality, women? It is used to sleep. No matter how much they train, they may be scared to death before the enemy rushed over.

Early in the morning, before the soldiers of both sides entered the market, the West Garden had gathered many princes and ministers and famous scholars in Luoyang. Most people believed that the position of Weiwei was already in Yuan Shu's possession. As long as this position was taken, there would be Yuan Shao, who was the Sili lieutenant in Luoyang's army, and Yuan Shu, the Weiwei in the palace, who had enough strength to compete with the general. From then on, the scholars would no longer have to rely on He Jin's command, look at the butcher's face.

"Brother Ziyang, if you win this time, our scholars will be proud!" Around the huge schoolyard, Yuan Wei and others sat high on the table, several important officials sat in the same place with Yuan Wei, whispering to congratulate him.

"The winner is not decided, why are you happy?" Yuan Wei looked at Liu Hong, who was sitting not far away, and whispered: "Be careful of your words."

Several ministers nodded tacitly.

He Jin sat next to Liu Hong and glanced at the scholars who gathered together in groups of three or five. I don’t know if Xi Zhicai woke up. Today he suddenly felt a little lonely, and he could clearly feel that these scholars who gathered around him in the past were less respectful to him.

Especially Yuan Wei, when he asked for help, he frequently visited him. Now that this matter has become a foregone conclusion, it is difficult for him to even see the other party.

These scholars are indeed all wolf-hearted and slap-hearted!

He Jin's face looked a little bad, and he snorted in his heart, regretting that he agreed to Yuan Wei so happily. Xi Zhicai said it right. For these people, he was really just a chess piece. The gambling battle had not yet begun, and the position of Weiwei had not really fallen into the hands of Yuan Shu. These people had already begun to draw a clear line with him. I really don't know what kind of face these people would have if Yuan Shu really got the position of Weiwei in the future.

Thinking about it, He Jin felt very sad, and he strongly hoped that Ye Zhao could win this battle. As long as the position of Weiwei did not fall into the hands of these people, these scholars would still have to rely on themselves. At that time, it was time to consider how to divide the power of Yuan Shao, the Sili lieutenant, into a certain point.

But how to divide it? He Jin didn't have many ideas yet. He looked around the crowd and searched for someone who could help him divide Yuan Shao's power. He just searched for a long time and saw that there were scholars on the platform, which made him feel like he could start.

In the end, He Jin's eyes fell on Cao Cao, and his heart moved. Why did Cao Cao have such a close relationship with Yuan Shao in the past, so why did he be so far away from Yuan Shao today?

This matter has to start with Ye Zhao. On that day, Yuan Wei pointed out Ye Zhao's thoughts. Yuan Shao is a man who is soft-hearted and easily trusts others, not to mention that Yuan Wei is the one who speaks.

In addition, Cao Cao, who had been close to Ye Zhao recently, was also angry by Yuan Shao. He had been with Cao Cao for a longer time and knew that Cao Cao also did not like to follow the rules and was quite similar to Ye Zhao. Who knows what Cao Cao was worried about?

Therefore, when Cao Cao came to watch the battle this time, although he invited Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao intentionally alienated, which made Cao Cao look a little lonely now.

"Why is the general not very good-looking today?" Liu Hong turned his head, glanced at He Jin, and sneered in his heart. The scholars who used to surround him have now begun to draw a clear line with him. This general should understand some problems, right?

"If you have any trouble, your Majesty will worry, I will not be in trouble." He Jin closed his mind and bowed to Liu Hong.

"The general is the pillar of the country, so you should take care of your health." Liu Hong smiled disconcertedly, looked at the huge schoolyard and said, "It's beginning."

He Jin quickly looked back and saw that Yuan Shu and Ye Zhao appeared on the huge school ground first. As commanders, they did not participate in the war. Two three-meter-high platforms were set up on both sides of the school ground, and the two of them would command on the platform.

Behind Yuan Shu, five hundred burly soldiers wearing bamboo armor were arranged in a square formation. Under Yu She's leadership, they followed Yuan Shu. At first glance, they saw the sword light shining and murderous aura were everywhere. This was the elite selected by the Yuan family from the tens of thousands of imperial guards in Luoyang with the help of He Jin. The armor worn by each soldier was bamboo armor. In addition, shield hands, spear soldiers, and archers were arranged one by one. Although there were only five hundred, the distribution of troops was extremely reasonable and belonged to a formation that could be attacked and defended.

On the other side, the female soldier behind Ye Zhao made people's eyes lit up.

A female soldier was wearing light armor, not as distinctive as Yuan Shu's men and horses. She had a long bow and arrow bag, and was not a strong bow with a very long range in the army. Instead, she was an ordinary wooden bow with a relatively short range, a short sword on her waist, and nothing else.

The difference in equipment between the two sides is far different, but what really makes people shine is the lineup of these female soldiers. They are not as delicate and pitiful as the palace maids. The queue is neat, and they all stand up straight, like a javelin. No matter from which angle, the entire queue is moving like a person, looking like a whole.

The most important thing is the spirit of these female soldiers. It is hard to imagine these heroic female soldiers in front of them. Three months ago, they were a group of palace maids with all manners and extremely delicate appearances.

Even if he could not see Ye Zhao's other people, he couldn't help but admire the situation of these female soldiers at this moment. Ye Zhao did have a good way of training.

Behind Ye Zhao, Dian Wei and Guan Hai, the generals of the family did not follow him, but watched the battle next to him. Ye Zhao had no way to infiltrate a group of men. Behind him, in addition to Zhang Yue, there were five military marquises selected from the female soldiers. They all had excellent performance and some knowledge in the past three months. One is Li Shuxiang, a Kuaiji person. He has learned some martial arts, was agile and intelligent, and could execute Ye Zhao's orders well. The other person was named Ren Hongchang, a Bingzhou person. He was also the only female official in the palace among the eight hundred palace maids selected by Ye Zhao. He has outstanding appearance and feels like he is a disaster to the country and the people. However, he is very smart. Although his martial arts are not as strong as Li Shuxiang, he has a strong view of the overall situation and has his own unique insights in command.

In addition to these two temporary military marquises, Ye Zhao also selected the team leader, commander and commander of sergeant, who were responsible for coordinating the adjustment of the army.

Ye Zhao's eyes swept over the Xiyuan schoolyard. He told the emperor that the schoolyard should be large enough. This Xiyuan schoolyard can accommodate the Luoyang army here. The place is large enough and there is enough space to leap into the air. Ye Zhao let go of his always-choosing heart. With this venue, he can fully display the results of his training in March. Looking at the other party's equipment, Ye Zhao couldn't help laughing. With the advantage of the geographical advantage, he won half of this bet. The rest depends on the girls' performance on the spot.

"As mentioned before, the enemy is heavily equipped and cannot fight for a long time. What you have to do is to avoid its edge. Remember, what we want is victory, and it is perfect. It is not embarrassing to not be able to defeat the enemy. As long as you win in the end, everything is worth it. You only have two tasks. First, it is to run and never give the enemy any chance to get close to the battle; the second is to lure the enemy to shoot arrows. The opponent has only two teams of archers, each with only one bag of arrows and a cluster of 1,200 arrows. Find ways to lure them to fire arrows. When their arrows are finished, we will win this battle."

"Don't worry, General, we will not let the general down." Ren Hongchang and Li Shuxiang looked at each other, silently put the bronze mask made in advance on their faces, and bowed to Ye Zhao.

"Enter!" Ye Zhao looked at Yuan Shu's soldiers who had already formed a formation on the opposite side and couldn't wait to start the war. He glanced at the two women with encouragement and climbed up to the platform.

Five hundred female soldiers set up in an orderly queue and entered the field. From beginning to end, there was no chaos. If we only look at the military appearance, the female soldiers had already thrown away Yuan Shu's side.

"General, this is the rule of war. If there is no objection, the war can be started." A small yellow gate handed it to Ye Zhao with a paper booklet and bowed.

Ye Zhao took it and looked through it. It was probably the rule of this battle. Yuan Shu was full of bamboo armor, and it was difficult to break the defense, so the standard was that those who were shot three times or were hit twice were considered dead. Ye Zhao's side, because they were all light armor, they would have to leave as long as they were shot once.

The swords and arrow clusters used are wrapped with cloth to avoid casualties. However, this kind of drill without protective measures is inevitable. The soldiers on both sides have signed life and death certificates. If they die on the field, the family members will receive a sum of money, which will be paid by the winning party.

The outcome depends on the number of people left in the end. If one side is destroyed and the other side wins, it is not an unlimited battle. It is limited to two hours. Once two hours pass and one side has not yet been wiped out, the person with the most people on the field will win. Of course, you can also take the initiative to abstain from the voluntary.

Yuan Shu was the first to wave the order flag and ordered Yu She to lead the army into the field. Seeing this, Ye Zhao also waved the order flag. Zhang Yue led the troops to approach slowly. Seeing that the two troops were approaching, until the two sides were almost close to the distance of an arrow, Ye Zhao waved the order flag and Zhang Yue immediately stopped moving forward.

"Charge!" Seeing this, Yuan Shu sneered, waved the order flag directly, and issued the general attack order. His opponent was just a group of women wearing light armor, and he might not be able to support a charge. This battle was too easy to win.
