Sun Bin looked at a large number of gamblers, one of whom was the most conspicuous. He was full of energy and devoted himself to the horse racing, obviously betting a lot.

After Tian Ji's horse racing, Sun Bin and Tian Ji defeated Pang Juan with the tactic of surrounding Wei and saving Zhao. Sun Bin always wanted to completely defeat his senior brother, but he didn't know when he would wait for the second match. So when he was bored, Sun Bin would go to the racecourse to relax. If he stayed in his luxurious mansion, he would only think of everything he encountered in Wei State, and those memories were really a blow to society.

Originally, Sun Bin went to Wei State to join his senior brother Pang Juan, but Pang Juan was jealous of Sun Bin's talent, so he dug out his knees and locked him up with the pig. If Sun Bin hadn't pretended to be crazy and stupid, he wouldn't have escaped from Wei State.

During that period, Sun Bin experienced the greatest pain in his life, the pain of betrayal by his senior brother, the pain of his knee being dug, and the pain of his dignity being destroyed. A victory was not enough to restore him to normalcy. Even if he killed Pang Juan, Sun Bin could no longer stand up. He also looked for a doctor Mozhe, and Mozhe suggested that he amputate and replace him with a prosthetic, but Sun Bin finally chose a wheelchair and he didn't want to amputate.

The noise of the racecourse will distract yourself, and Sun Bin will not think randomly. But today, he met an interesting person in the racecourse, and Sun Bin couldn't help but observe.

Sun Bin is actually in his early thirties, but he already has gray hair. He is also very thin and has a haggard and unhealthy face. It is obviously because of his heart disease, so he is restless when he sleeps and eats.

In the racetrack, Yu Lu was already behind, and it was obviously impossible to win, but the young man was still cheering for Yu Lu. Sun Bin wanted to see the man's lost expression after Yu Lu lost.

However, something strange happened. When Yu Lu failed, the man's expression did not reveal any disappointment. He was very calm and did not look like a jealous gambling man.

"You go and ask how much he has taken custody." Sun Bin asked the left and right attendants to inquire about the situation.

The attendant quickly replied with a strange expression: "I've inquired, this person has just pleaded ten sword coins." The attendant also didn't believe it, because the sound of hissing was exhausted just now, not just for ten sword coins, but for his own life. If there were only ten sword coins, why would it be like this?

Sun Bin was also very surprised and asked, "Have you confirmed?"

"It's confirmed that there are really only ten sword coins." The attendant's face was full of strangeness.

Sun Bin became interested. Judging from the other party's outfit, he didn't look like a person who couldn't get ten sword coins. Why was he so excited for ten sword coins? Besides, from his indifferent look after losing, we can tell that the other party was not for ten sword coins. Is it because he was excited because he was the first time he watched a horse racing?

Since you have questions, the best way is to ask clearly: "Go and invite those people."

"yes."

When Yunyao saw a haggard man in a wheelchair, she thought to herself that this was not a coincidence. She didn't expect to see a celebrity so soon.

"I've met Mr. Sun." It's now that the Warring States Period is the time. The Duke no longer refers to the Duke, but a respectful title for people.

Sun Bin was not surprised. After all, he was also a celebrity in Qi State and was a very well-recognized celebrity. There was no other disabled person in Qi State who was more noble than him. He looked up and down at these young people and found that the other party was neither humble nor arrogant, which was not in line with the performance of the upcoming year. At their age, he was excited to make achievements, but was eventually beaten by society. But these five people were very calm and felt unstoppable.

"I just saw you shouting sternly when racing horses. I thought you had bet a lot. After asking, I found out that you had only bet ten sword coins. I don't think you are a shortage of money, so why are you so different from ordinary people just now?" Sun Bin has a high emotional intelligence and did not directly ask you what you have.

"I was gambling just now, not because of ten coins or one hundred gold. Since it's gambling, I want to win." Yun Yao said seriously.

Interestingly, Sun Bin asked again: "Look at the surroundings, the losers are all depressed. Since you want to win, why aren't you so discouraged after losing?"

Yunyao said: "It's useless to lose, saying more is useless. It's better to learn lessons in time and don't bet anymore."

Sun Bin couldn't help but nodded and felt that this young man was good and had potential. He agreed very much. As a soldier, he had to win in a war, but if he really lost, he had to learn from his lessons and adjust his flaws. The young man in front of him had the psychological quality of being a general.

"May I have your name?"

"Zhu Yun, from Zhucheng, Lu." Since she is dressed as a man, she naturally needs to use the name of a man. Men use the clan, and Yun Yao is the clan, so she is Zhu Yun now.

"Have you ever thought of being an official in Qi State? I think you can be a general?" Sun Bin developed a love for talent.

Yunyao shook his head, "I would rather be a lobbyist than a general."

"Why?" Sun Bin thought to himself whether the other party was afraid of death? If he was afraid of death, he would not be able to join the army.

"It is not good to be a general to be an enemy of the monarch." Yunyao said something astonishingly, which made Sun Bin look at him sideways.

"What do you mean by this? The general is fighting for the monarchy's country, how could he be an enemy of the monarch?" Sun Bin had never heard of such words before, and was very strange.

Yun Yao could naturally tell a big truth, and she said slowly: "If you win, the general will capture ten cities, and the monarch will reward the general with five cities to inspire people. If you don't win, the general will be blamed. If you are a lobbyist, who is generous to other countries and treats the six cities as a courtesy, can break off diplomatic relations with the monarch and allies, and can also provoke the relationship between the monarch and the ministers. The general consumes military, horses, food and grass, but can only give the monarch five cities. The lobbyist does not need to spend any effort to send the monarch to the six cities, so the monarch does not like the general, and the general is the enemy of the monarch."

When a general captures the land, the monarch needs to reward him, so war is obviously not the optimal solution for the monarch. The optimal solution is to come to peace talks and send cities, because the monarch can maximize his interests without losing his own strength.

In the Warring States Period, it was often seen that the enemy country used cities as bribes. The monarch who accepted bribes changed his previous decisions and made seemingly insane decisions. In fact, it was not that the monarch was easy to cheat, nor that the monarch had low IQ, but that the interests of the country were not necessarily the interests of the monarch. The country was composed of mouths that looked for the monarch to share profits, and that was hungry. The monarch had to pay the price to do things.

If things are done, the monarch may not be able to get benefits. In other words, the monarch uses his own money to do things for others, so the monarch is naturally unhappy.

Therefore, in the history of the Warring States Period, many monarchs would accept bribes and betray their faith. First, it had direct benefits, and second, even if the betrayed country attacked, the war would not necessarily be fought on their own territory.

Because it is a feudal system, the country's land is allocated to others, and the core territory of the king is not affected, so betrayal is betrayal. Anyway, the lords on the border are the ones who take the risk.

In fact, the Seven Kings of the Warring States Period were seven Zhou dynasties. The king and the lord lived together. The lord recognized the lord as the king. Everyone made money and fought together. But in fact, each lord had his own ideas and the lord also had his own core interests.

The interests of the monarch are not the interests of the country, so the monarchs of the Warring States Period always have all kinds of tricks.

Of course, it is not just the monarch's operation, but the lord's operation also has a lot of monarchs. Sometimes, in order to expand their fiefdom, they actively encourage the monarch to start a war, or accept bribes from other countries, and encourage the monarch to make decisions that are beneficial to the enemy's country, and to sell the interests of the country and the monarch for a piece of fiefdom.

So Yunyao is completely correct to say this. The general is also a lord. He has to share the spoils when winning. So sometimes it is better to not fight than to fight a war because the benefits are too small and the income expenditure is unequal.
