I have been reading and writing for several days, but I don't realize that it is the middle of June. Gu Haotian thought that it had been almost a month since the recruits recruited last time, so he called Bian Xiang and the others to take a look.

Just arrived at the Qianshan barracks, but heard the shouting inside, a few people went in to take a look, only to see a large group of people surrounded by three circles inside and three circles, it turned out that Li Kui and Jiao Ting were wrestling in it shirtless, and Ma Wei was on the side as a referee.

Jiao Ting is now training in the recruit camp, Ma Xun and Li Kui know that Gu Haotian wants them to be the commander and deputy commander of the third battalion of the newly built infantry, that is, the sword and shield battalion, anyway, there are no soldiers to bring with them for the time being, so they soak in the recruit camp together every day.

At this time, it was time for training, and the recruits from Jinling knew that Jiao Ting was good at sumo wrestling, and he didn't know who took the lead in coaxing Li Kui and Jiao Ting to have a try. These two guys, who had nowhere to vent their energy, did not admit defeat and immediately got into a fight.

But seeing that both of them were tall and tall, they stood in the middle of the field like two bulls, advancing and retreating in the midst of wave after wave of shouts. But Jiao Ting was born in a sumo family after all, so even if Li Kui is superior in strength, he is very inferior in skill. The two fought for more than ten rounds, and Li Kui was wrestled by Jiao Tingxun, and everyone applauded.

"Brother Jiao Ting's clever sumo wrestling methods, come on, come again." Li Kui refused to admit defeat, and got up and had to play another game.

"Brother Tie Niu, take a break, that Jiao Ting brother is a family heirloom sumo craft, how did you win him for a while."

Gu Haotian opened his mouth to stop the two of them behind the crowd, and only then did everyone notice Gu Haotian and their arrival.

"No wonder Brother Jiao Ting is like this, it turned out to be a family heirloom, but I suffered in vain." Li Kui listened to the two shouts, and also stopped thinking about fighting again.

Looking at the unfinished people gathered on the side, Gu Haotian thought to himself that the spare time life in the Liangshan Barracks was too scarce, and he had to find a way to organize some activities for them to adjust, otherwise these energetic guys would have problems and be in trouble at that time. So he remembered the football he thought of last time, although he was not very good at football, but when he was in college in the previous world, he was also a member of the class football team, and he still knew the rules of the sport and some superficial playing styles. Now that he is relatively free, it is better to take the opportunity to promote football and learn fitness.

The Keju sport in the Zhou Dynasty has been very developed, and Keju is the originator of football, and the two sports have something in common, which is convenient for the promotion of football.

At present, there are two main ways to play Kemari, one is "white play" and the other is "building ball", which is absolutely not allowed to use hands like modern football.

"White play" is a bit similar to synchronized football, there is no goal, two teams each send the same number of players, take turns in the field, make a variety of difficult actions, and the ball does not land, the best player wins.

"Building the ball" emphasizes confrontation more. A large goal will be erected in the middle of the court, and the mesh with a square foot in the net is called "Merry Eye". The two sides of the game stand on both sides, the hand is not allowed to touch the ball, the ball must not land, the ball shoots through the "Merry Eye", and the landing is a chip, the goal is more than a win, and each game is also equipped with "all deployment correction" and "social division", that is, the referee and vice referee. However, in Gu Haotian's view, this is more like modern volleyball, but it can't be used with hands.

To Gu Haotian's surprise, Keju in this era turned out to be hollow and inflatable, and the whole appearance was not much different from modern football, which saved him from worrying.

On that day, he was in the study, recalling the rules, techniques and tactics of football in later generations, and listed them with a pen. The rules are more troublesome, such as the field, the number of people, the time, the ball, the referee, etc., are still clear, and the offside can barely be explained, but when it comes to fouls, free kicks, penalties, throw-ins, corner kicks, etc., it is a bit chaotic. But Gu Haotian doesn't care, anyway, he is the founder of football in this era, he can play whatever he wants, and he will slowly improve it in the future.

Then he took Bian Xiang to the Qinwei camp to select people, and he was going to carry out a pilot here, and then promote it. After the attack on Crouching Tiger Village, the guard battalion expanded to more than 130 people, in addition to Gu Bo's squad was established, more than 20 members who performed well in the battle were recruited from each battalion, such as Qin Sheng and Ruan Shuisheng, who entered the guard battalion and became squad leaders. The guard battalion is the first battalion on the mountain, and everyone understands that being able to enter the guard camp means that the future is immeasurable, and Gu Haotian does not hide this intention, he just wants to take the guard battalion as his Huangpu Military Academy and build a team loyal to himself.

Gu Haotian took the ability to bow and be physically strong as the conditions for selecting people, and finally selected 36 people, and then asked the infrastructure department to help build the goal and level the field, so he served as his own coach and entered the field to practice after training every day.

What a strange place suddenly appeared in the training ground, and the petty officials personally took the lead in training, and all the battalions on the mountain were very novel, and they came to watch. And Gu Haotian wanted this effect, so he took the trouble to explain this kind of exercise and various rules to everyone, as well as the effect of exercise, which raised everyone's curiosity.

Not to mention, with the foundation of Keju, people in this era have a very good sense of ball, and after a few days of training and adapting to the rules, they will play decently. In the evening of this day, Gu Haotian organized a confrontation match, with Bian Xiang leading a team and Gu Bo leading a team, and he acted as a referee. The battalions that had received the news in advance surrounded the field in the early morning, eager to see what the magic of this "football" was.

With the sound of Gu Haotian's bamboo whistle. The players on both sides entered, Bian Xiang wore white, Gu Bo wore black, both short-sleeved shorts, and the number was attached to the back.

Bian Xiang himself sat in the midfield, letting Ruan Shuisheng rush ahead, and Gu Bo was also clever, he knew that his side could not shake Bian Xiang, but he formed a double striker with Qin Sheng, hoping to break through quickly.

At the beginning of the game, the two sides fought together, due to the rough technique, the physical confrontation was very intense, but Gu Haotian deliberately connived, if it was not a big move, he would not blow the whistle, and for a while the sword and sword shadow on the field were murderous. And the people outside the stadium like this kind of fierce scene, cheering for their acquaintances, and the shouts are deafening.

At this time, Qin Sheng grabbed the ball on the field, only to see him and Gu Bo look at each other, then take the ball to the left side, this guy's footwork is really good, I saw that he passed two lines of defense in a row, and he was about to burst into the penalty area, Bian Xiang, who was sitting in the midfield, couldn't stand it, and hurried over to clear the siege.

"Oh no, Brother Bian Xiang has been tricked." Sun An blurted out a sentence on the sidelines.

"Sure enough, this kid Gu Bo actually used a plan to attack the west." At this time, Katsu also saw Gu Bo who went down to the right and was unmarked.

When Bian Xiang arrived, he saw Qin Sheng pick up his foot, and the ball flew straight down at Gu Bo's feet, only to see Gu Bo deceive the goalkeeper to the side, and gently push the ball into the net, and the audience immediately thundered.

"The Chinese army must not move lightly! In fact, as long as the Bian Xiang brothers retreated a few steps back to suppress the middle road and recruit reinforcements, Qin Sheng might not be able to break the door, and Gu Bo would not be so easy to succeed. Sun An sighed.

"This football is really evil, it actually secretly conforms to the principle of the military formation, how did the little official's brain come up with it." Katsu also sighed.

"No matter how you come up with it, my cavalry battalion will immediately select people for training tomorrow, otherwise I will be bullied by the guard battalion at that time, and who will reason with me."

Zhou Qingyun reacted quickly, and immediately thought that this sport would definitely be carried out in the barracks, otherwise the junior brother would not have tried so hard.

"Reason, reason." Ruan Xiaowu, Ma Qiang and others on the side agreed.

"Gubo, be careful!" While the crowd was discussing, they heard Ma Wei shouting.

Everyone hurriedly looked on the field, only to see Bian Xiang pushing the ball towards the opponent's goal like a heavy tank, while Gu Bo and Qin Sheng seemed to be still immersed in the joy of scoring goals, strolling in the front court and having no time to return to defense. Ma Xun was Gu Bo's old captain, and his heart was towards him, and he shouted anxiously, but it was to no avail at this time. Seeing that Bian Xiang was about to shoot in the penalty area, the last defender had to step forward and foul him to push him down. Gu Haotian's whistle sounded immediately, and the first penalty of the game appeared.

Bian Xiang and Ruan Shuisheng stood at the penalty spot, and just when everyone thought that Bian Xiang was in charge, they saw that he didn't know what to say to Ruan Shuisheng, and then stepped aside.

"At such an important moment, I can trust the brothers below, Brother Bian Xiang really has the demeanor of a general."

Ruan Xiaowu couldn't help but admire a little at this time, he was thinking that if he was on the field, he might not be able to do it.

"Little Fifth Brother didn't think of another layer, this is also to give a great credit to others, like a large army attacking the city, the most dangerous and painful things in front of him have been done, but the last easy blow is given to others, such a mind is ......"

Sun An said this, everyone felt justified when they thought about it, but this penalty is much easier to score, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is really good, and everyone has their own feelings.

Let's say that Ruan Shuisheng walked to the penalty spot, and the originally boiling court was silent for a while, and all eyes were fixed on the small ball. I saw Ruan Shuisheng calm down, retreated a few steps, ran and got up, and the ball successfully deceived the goalkeeper and went straight to the net.

Suddenly the audience was in a sensation, and Ruan Shuisheng stood there stunned as if he couldn't believe it, until Bian Xiangxiang hugged him tightly, he felt the truth, and tears suddenly welled up. Then the two were surrounded by the team members who rushed to the scene, and everyone shouted and jumped indulgently, venting the joy brought by the Jedi counterattack.

The game ended in a 1-1 draw, but the sport, called football, caused a strong reaction on the mountain, and everyone learned a lot from it, such as teamwork, courage and tenacity, selfless trust, strategic planning, and so on.

An ordinary or even rough confrontation game, can play such momentum and influence, Gu Haotian was absolutely unthinkable before the game, I have to say that football is really a hot-blooded boy's sport. But that's fine, he didn't need to say anything, and each battalion selected players that night and formed their own football teams.

A wave of football fever quickly set off on Liangshan, obviously Gu Haotian had already prepared, he asked the infrastructure department to press the already prepared goal to the training ground, and the six football fields on the mountain and the football field on Golden Beach immediately took shape. Subsequently, Gu Haotian convened the backbone of each battalion to hold a football training class, and explained and demonstrated the football rules he had compiled for several days.

Subsequently, Gu Haotian set a half-moon period to hold football matches in each battalion. After that, in addition to the drills, the battalions began to train in full swing of football, and the natural pride of the selected teams was to run forward and backward on the field, enjoying the glory of stars in the shouts. Those who were not selected naturally became cheerleaders of their respective teams, and some even formed amateur teams privately and practiced on their own.

The emergence of football has made the amateur life of the barracks colorful all of a sudden, and the players have a good place to spend time after training, and their sense of identity and centripetal force for their respective teams has been enhanced.
