"Lao Tzu will let ten stupid sons stay away from you in the future, so as not to be fooled by you."

"Hey......

Gu Bei could only smirk, only to hear Cheng Wushu continue: "I will let someone prepare things for you, but you kid can't do it?" Hitting the ball is not such a simple thing, be careful to roll off the horse's back and break your head and bleed. If you want Lao Tzu to say, you kid is too Meng Lang, although Guo Gao has no bullshit skills, but it is not something that you, a young man, can compete with. ”

Gu Bei really wanted to give the middle finger to this old thing.

Nima, on the wooden platform today, who is the one who chokes my mouth with words, what man says, and spits on and nails?

Realizing that he couldn't say that he was an old man, Gu Bei turned around and left, and went to find Chang Xiaolai to practice with them.

In the Great Summer polo game, ten batsmen are played on each side. Except for Gu Bei, who must play, the remaining nine people, including Chang Xiaolai, are all good at playing polo.

Chang Xiaolai is very smug on weekdays, and he chatters all day, as soon as he rides on horseback and takes the club, he is as if he has changed a person, and he is very excited.

"Brother Gu Bei, watch my brother show you what batting is!" Chang Xiaolai pulled the reins of the horse, and the horse under the crotch rushed out.

A polo player hit the polo in the direction of Chang Xiaolai, but saw that Chang Xiaolai did not wait for the polo to land, and directly hit the ball with a cane, and hit the ball directly towards the goal from a distance of seven or eight feet from the goal.

The red polo ball swooped straight into the goal like a shooting star, and drilled into the goal like a guided missile.

Gu Bei and a group of batsmen applauded again and again, Chang Xiaolai played this ball really wonderfully, compared to the batsmen I saw on the Beijun Course today.

In order to practice, Chang Xiaolai also arranged for opponents, and the batsmen from the Chinese military camp accompanied them to practice.

Gu Bei stayed on the sidelines for the time being, planning to familiarize himself with the rules first.

However, after watching it for a while, his brows furrowed, there seemed to be something wrong with this big summer's polo.

Looking at the scene of twenty people chasing the red polo ball on the polo field of Nuoda, Gu Bei held his elbow with one hand and his chin with the other, thinking in his mind.

Where do you always feel a sense of disobedience?

At this time, on the court, Chang Xiaolai had just intercepted the opponent's attack, and hit the polo forward with force, and twenty horses turned their heads again and chased towards the polo.

Gu Bei slapped him suddenly, startling Xiao Ran beside him.

"That's right, that's it! I got it!" Gu Bei didn't care about the ground, and hurriedly blew the copper whistle and stopped the game......

Although the polo of the Xia Dynasty was prosperous, it was still very rough from the perspective of Gu Bei's later generations.

It doesn't mean the technique, in his opinion, including the batsmen, both equestrian and batting skills are already perfect, which is a personal skill that stuntmen in later movies cannot show.

However, these batsmen in Great Xia mostly use cavalry formations when playing polo. Of the ten batsmen, except for one goalkeeper, the remaining nine were all in a cavalry triangle charge formation, and the trio worked with each other.

There is no distinction between strikers and midfielders and defenders in the crowd.

As a result, the originally large polo field was not effectively utilized. In Gu Bei's eyes, it is wonderful but wonderful, and it is very lively, but there is no skill and tactics in it.

He was used to playing live football games in later generations, and he was familiar with football tactics such as three, four, three, four, two.

Why can't playing polo be the same?

Chang Xiaolai and the others were having a good time, and they were blown off the game and looked depressed: "Brother Gu, what's wrong?" Why whistle? ”

Gu Bei asked someone to bring him a pen and paper, and while writing and drawing on it, he replied: "Brother Chang, don't worry, junior brother, I have some ideas, and I will discuss one or two with you." ”

"Brother Gu, do you still know how to hit the ball?"

"Hehe, you wait for me to draw it for you, and you'll see it when you see it."

Gu Bei drew a schematic diagram of the polo field on paper, picked up a handful of stones from the ground, and put two of them on it: "Brother Chang, please look, these two stones represent two batsmen." ”

He pointed to Chang Xiaolai and a batsman: "You have good skills, you can be responsible for the attack, you are the first line of the team's attack, mainly roaming in this area, I call it a striker." ”

He used his pen to outline an area in front of the polo field: "Brother Chang and this brother are in this area, waiting for the opportunity, and the blow will be fatal." ”

Chang Xiao glanced at the batsman and laughed: "The striker is good, Lao Tzu is the vanguard, go straight to Huanglong, understand." Brother Gu continued. ”

Gu Bei nodded, took out three more stones, and put them on the paper.

"These three stones represent these three brothers, the three of you are the Chinese army, I call it the midfielder, mainly in the middle of the field, responsible for contacting the striker and the defender, attacking and retreating!"

The three batsmen all glanced at Chang Xiaolai and nodded in understanding.

Gu Bei took out the last three stones and placed them on the paper.

"These four brothers are the defenders on the field, I call them defenders, and they are mainly responsible for defending and intercepting the opponent's attack."

The four of them also nodded, excited, looking at the nine stones that Gu Bei placed on the paper, but they had a feeling of battlefield battle.

Chang Xiaolai suddenly spoke: "Brother Gu, what are you doing?" ”

"Me? Guarding the door. Gu Bei replied as a matter of course: "Do you expect me to charge into battle?" ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all burst out laughing.

The batsmen may all be people who come from a small age, and they did not raise objections, but listened carefully to Gu Bei's explanation with great interest.

Gu Bei picked up the pen again, focused on each position, how to run and attack, opened the width of the field, dispatched the players with the ball, and explained to them for a long time.

The batsmen are quite smart, and after Gu Bei explained, he roughly understood his responsibilities and running routes on the court.

"Haha, Brother Gu, your formation is a bit interesting, let's try it on the field?" Chang Xiaolai can't wait.

Gu Bei nodded, and was about to get on the horse, when he suddenly remembered something, called Xiao Ran, and asked him to send him a helmet.

Everyone was puzzled, and Gu Bei didn't bother to explain, it was too much to bring any protective gear for such a dangerous sport.

I don't dare to learn from them, who have fine skin and tender meat.

If it weren't for the fact that Great Xia's armor was too heavy, Gu Beidu would have wanted to go into battle to play polo with all his weapons.

After putting on his helmet and fastening his strap, Gu Bei carefully climbed onto the horse's back and prepared to play.

The training match resumed, and the batsmen of the Chinese military camp all casually rode their horses onto the court. In the eyes of this group of old oilmen, playing polo with Gu Bei and others is just a game with them.

Although the batsmen who came to call in Chang Xiaolai had good skills, there was no comparison to this group of veterans in the army. With the cooperation of the three batsmen, it is difficult for Chang Xiaolai and others to compete.

This is the cooperation of the cavalry in the army, and on the battlefield, the same is true when the cavalry is attacking. The cavalry formation that seemed to be overwhelming was actually three cavalrymen fighting with each other.

One person is responsible for attacking, and the other two are responsible for protecting the left and right flanks, which is similar to the infantry tactics of the three-three system invented by the People's Liberation Army in later generations.

Three people form a battle team, and attack and defend in a triangle or assist in defense. This kind of tactic has both offense and defense, and the division of labor is clear, which can bring the cavalry's combat effectiveness into full play.

But this tactic is used on the battlefield, although it is extremely brave, but it may not be suitable for use on the field.

If you concentrate too much on the players, you leave too much space for the opponent to use.

Originally, Daxia played polo, everyone was like this, so it didn't matter, just like the so-called rookies pecked each other, that's it.

But Gu Bei shamelessly copied the football tactics of later generations. Polo tactics immediately became outdated.

When Chang Xiaolai's batsman rode his horse on the field, he tried to stand as Gu Bei explained, which also caused a burst of laughter from the old oilman of the Chinese army on the sidelines.

Although he only accompanied Chang Xiao to train, the side of the polo field still attracted many soldiers of the Chinese army to watch, including many generals in the army, who also ran to the sidelines to join in the fun.

Seeing their sparse horses standing, everyone couldn't help laughing.

"Chang Gongzi, what are you playing? Why don't you assemble a battle formation? If you fight alone like this, you can't be tortured to death? ”

"Hehe, it is estimated that Aunt Bai is playing again, and look, this kind of formation will definitely not be able to stop the attack."

"I bet on Aunt Bai that they hit the ball according to this formation, and they have to lose at least five balls, does anyone bet with me?"

"Get out of the way, no one is crazy to bet this with you."

In a corner of the field, Cheng Wushu was also surrounded by a group of generals, watching Gu Bei and others train. Seeing such a situation on the field, a group of generals couldn't help but talk about it.

"General, Chang Gongzi, what kind of play are they playing? is so nonsense, you can't win the batting team of the Xinxiang uncle's family. ”

"I'm afraid it's the attention of a Gu County man, right? I just saw that he called everyone over, and this is what he has become. ”

"It's the first time I've seen someone hit the ball in such a position, haha, these bastard boys, today I want to make Lao Tzu lose face in front of the sergeants, and Lao Tzu will beat them to death."

Without waiting for Cheng Wuving to be furious, the soldier who served as the referee blew the bronze whistle in his mouth, and the game began......

It was Gu Bei's side who took the lead in kicking off, Chang Xiaolai casually pushed the polo to another striker batsman, and the three batsmen of the Chinese army rushed over with their legs between the horse's belly.

But seeing that Gu Beibei's striker was unhurried, he used the stick in his hand to rush before the three people surrounded him, and pumped the ball behind him.

The length of the polo field is 1,000 steps, and the distance of the half court is 500 steps, which is more than 700 meters. The horses they rode were all military horses and could reach speeds of about 50 kilometers per hour.

Even so, it takes almost a minute for the horses to cross the half at full speed.

In the 21st century, one of the movies has a classic line called "Football is always faster than you, so, we need to pass the ball." ”
