In the Sixteen Guards Competition, you don't have to eliminate everyone on the other side to be considered a winner.
To be precise, there is only one rule in the competition. The one who captures the opponent's commander's flag is the winner. If two armies are fighting, even if one side is defeated, the commander's flag will be protected. When the commander's flag is captured, it will be an army.
When they were almost completely wiped out.
Of course, if everyone is eliminated, capturing the flag will be a matter of the other party's hand.
Because of this, in past competitions, no matter which guard, they valued the handsome flag very much and would not let the opponent attack under the handsome flag.
But who would have thought that the Cavalry Guard's tactics completely disrupted the entire battle, and then they actually figured out how to take advantage of the chaos by pretending to be their opponent, and stole the flag in an almost despicable way.
If this is a battle between two armies, even if they steal the flag, they will still be at a disadvantage and will eventually be annihilated. But this is a competition, and the rules are the rules. If the flag is taken, no matter how much Habayashi Wei occupies the field.
The advantage is also considered as a loss.
Ling Feng was stunned, looked at Wu Langzhong, and said loudly: "Do they count as winning?"
Wu Langzhong nodded and said: "If one side's flag is captured, the competition ends. The one who captures the flag is the winner. This is the rule of the competition."
"you……"
Ling Feng had an angry look on his face and was about to speak, but was stopped by Ling Yun. Ling Yun looked at General Chen Zhonglang and said, "In this battle, our Zuo Yuwei lost."
Each of the four teams in Group A has to compete with the other groups. Zuo Yuwei lost one game. Only by winning the next two games can they be guaranteed to be eliminated.
In the first game of the competition, Zuo Yuwei, who was expected to compete for the first place, was placed in the hands of Zuo Xiaowei, who was ranked at the bottom of the sixteen guards, which greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.
This game also set a record for the shortest trial period in the history of the Sixteenth Guards Tournament.
After all, except for Zuo Xiaowei, no other team has ever won by pretending to be their opponent and stealing their opponent's flag.
Xiao Jue clapped his hands, looked at Ling Feng, and said, "Don't forget the bet we made just now. One thousand taels of silver will be delivered to my house before tomorrow."
Ling Feng gritted his teeth and said, "If you win in such a shameless way, can you be considered a winner?"
Xiao Jue glanced at him and asked, "Do you want to deny it?"
If he denies the bet he just made in front of so many people now, how will he have any face in the capital in the future?
Ling Feng took a few deep breaths and said, "Isn't it just one thousand taels of silver? I'll have someone send it to you soon."
Seeing Xiao Jue leaving triumphantly, Ling Feng clenched his fist, slammed it on the table, and said angrily: "This shameless person!"
Ling Yun looked at Zuo Yuwei and Zuo Xiaowei who were leaving the battlefield one after another, his face became slightly solemn, and he said: "Do you really think Zuo Xiaowei relied on conspiracy?"
Ling Feng said bitterly: "Except for using conspiracy and tricks, how can they defeat the Yulin Guards?"
Ling Yun looked at the field and said: "Zuo Xiaowei is no longer the Zuo Xiaowei he used to be..."
The Xiaoqi Camp held four games every day. After Xiao Jue won the first game, nothing happened. As the head of the military department, Tangning could not leave the field.
He originally planned to lose the first game, but since Xiao Jue wanted to win, it didn't matter if he won one.
The rules of the Sixteen Guards Competition are like playing chess. Both sides can use any moves, but they must ensure that their handsome generals and generals are not killed. If the handsome generals and generals are eaten, no matter how many rooks are left,
A horse or a few cannons is considered a loss.
If you win against Zuo Yuwei in this way, others will at most think that Zuo Xiaowei is cunning. The same strategy will not work the second time, and the impact on the odds is almost negligible.
Xiao family.
"The young master is back." Seeing Xiao Jue walking in from outside, the Xiao family's concierge immediately saluted.
Xiao Jue stopped, looked at him and asked, "Is the old man at home?"
The servant said: "The master is in the garden."
In the garden of Xiao Mansion, an old man was hunched over, holding a flower hoe in his hand, loosening the soil for some plants.
There were no servants in the garden, and the old man's back looked a little lonely.
Xiao Jue stood at the entrance of the garden, his pace gradually slowed down, and finally he paused.
There are only two masters in the Xiao Mansion, so naturally they don't need many servants. With the small number of people, the big house seems empty and lonely. He has errands to attend to, and he leaves early and comes back late. If Lu Ya hadn't often come over to drink and chat with the old man, he would have
A person does not know what it will be like to be alone.
This was one of the reasons why he still didn't care about her despite being beaten repeatedly.
Mr. Xiao put down his flower hoe, looked back at him, and asked: "Didn't you compete with Zuo Yuwei today and lose so quickly?"
"Why did you lose..." Xiao Jue strode over and said: "As for Zuo Yuwei and those people, it takes less than a stick of incense to defeat them. Seeing that they win, I will come back..."
"Did you win?" Mr. Xiao looked at him with a look of surprise on his face and asked, "Did you poison Zuo Yuwei's food?"
Xiao Jue looked at him and asked: "Zuo Xiaowei is your soldier, but you don't even trust your soldiers?"
"It is precisely because they are my soldiers that I know what kind of virtue they are." Mr. Xiao glanced at him and asked: "Isn't it poison...? Did you take advantage of them not paying attention during the competition and kill Zuo Yuwei?"
Was the handsome flag stolen?"
"..."
Xiao Jue coughed and said: "That is called winning by surprise, subduing the enemy without fighting. This is the highest level of tactics."
Mr. Xiao glanced at him and asked, "Did that boy named Tang teach you this again?"
Xiao Jue puffed up his chest and asked, "Couldn't it be that I came up with it?"
"Your mind is not that bright." Mr. Xiao shook his head and said, "If it was poisoning, I still believe it was you who did it..."
"I……"
"Old Xiao..."
Xiao Jue was about to open his mouth to defend, but was interrupted. He turned around and saw Lu Ya walking in from outside.
"It's Ya'er." Seeing Lu Ya, Mr. Xiao showed a smile on his face and said, "You are here just in time to play two games of chess with the old man..."
After speaking, he glanced at Xiao Jue and said, "What are you doing here? Let the kitchen prepare the food. I will have two drinks with Ya'er later..."
Xiao Jue glanced at Lu Ya and left reluctantly.
When he came back, he saw the old man looking at him with an evil look in his eyes.
Mr. Xiao looked at him with an evil look and said, "I heard that you defrauded Ya'er of a thousand taels of silver?"
Xiao Jue immediately said: "What lies? She lost to me!"
He looked at Lu Ya and asked, "Do you want to default on your debt?"
Lu Ya looked at Mr. Xiao timidly and said, "Mr. Xiao, look at him..."
"How did I teach you when you were a child? You can even cheat girls out of their money..." Seeing Mr. Xiao start to look around, as if he was looking for some weapon, Xiao Jue immediately said: "No, I just fight with her."
What a joke, how could I possibly win her money..."
"That's pretty much it." Mr. Xiao glanced at him, rummaged through the chess box, and said in surprise: "Why can't I find my horse? You talk to Ya'er first, and I'll go look for it in the study."
"Your horse..."
Xiao Jue wanted to say that he had just seen him put the horse into his sleeves, but when he opened his mouth, Mr. Xiao shot him back with a sharp look.
After Mr. Xiao left, Lu Yacai looked at him and said, "I don't have that much money now. I owe you a thousand taels of silver. I will pay you back slowly in the future."
Xiao Jue murmured in her heart, she didn't know clearly how long it would take, a month, a year, or ten or several decades. If she paid him back a few pennies a day, wouldn't she have to pay him back for the rest of her life?
He waved his hand magnanimously and said, "Forget it, I don't want it anymore."
"No!" Lu Ya patted the table and said, "What I owe you is what I owe you. Don't worry, I will definitely be able to pay it back in this life..."
Xiao Jue looked at her, thought of what Tang Ning said to him today, and suddenly said, "Can I ask you a question?"
Lu Ya looked at him and asked, "What's the question? Ask it."
"I have a friend who likes someone, but she often bullies him..." Xiao Jue thought for a while and asked, "Do you think she is sick?"
