Chapter Thirty-Six: Soft Entanglement Finally Defeats the Enemy
On the polo field near Saidaiji Temple, the battle between boys and girls is still raging.
The Beiting tooth soldiers, servants and little maids who were watching the battle around did not expect that Xiao Langjun and the little ladies would be able to play such a wonderful game.
The two teams crossed the sea and showed their own magical powers, breaking through the horses, taking advantage of the void, volleying, passing and pulling, and feints...... A variety of polo tactics and techniques are coming, which can be described as wonderful.
The scores of the two teams have also been tightly bitten and exciting, and the servants who have good things have begun to bet on the winners and losers of the two teams.
At this time, after Wang Fei scored a goal, the five-person team temporarily took a lead with a score of 9-8.
It was the turn of the three-man team to serve and attack.
After the five-man team scored, Wang Jue applied for a simple rest. The trio dismounted and drank some hot drinks outside the court and replaced the polo clubs in their hands.
The five-member team also took the opportunity to dismount and rest for a while, ready for the final battle!
Wang Fei held the reins of Chi Yanhua in his left hand, held the polo stick in his right hand, and stared at Wang Qi fiercely.
Before the three-person team was about to attack, the main general Wang Qi suddenly adjusted his position. He asked Gao Xiangui to retreat to the end of the Crane Wing Formation, and he pushed to the front right side of the Crane Wing Formation, and together with Zhang Dejia in front of the left, he formed the sharp wings of the Crane Attack.
'Everybody has to keep an eye on their position and concentrate on defending. The opponent is going to make a desperate bet and fully press the attack! Ashina, the main general of the five-man team, shouted loudly and organized the players of his team to strengthen the defense: "I am responsible for the first line of defense in the middle; Brother Fei and Wenxia, your focus at the moment is also defense, you must properly pull out, expand the scope of defense, and the defense on both sides will be handed over to you, and they must not be allowed to sprint directly to the goal; Scarlet, you are the last line of defense, you must go all out and guard the goal; Ji Ang, you ...... Forget it, you just don't let your opponent break through easily. ”
"Sister Xiaoyun, I think that if we can cut off the opponent's attack, we need to consider launching a quick counterattack. Although Gao Xiangui's defense is very stable, his body is fat and his movements are slow, and if you shoot hard, sister, it should be difficult for him to prevent high-speed balls. While preparing for the defense with all his might, Wang Fei did not forget to put forward his own suggestions.
Wang Fei was an out-and-out and genuine "pseudo-fan" in his previous life, and he has watched many high-level football matches such as the World Cup, Champions League, and La Liga. Therefore, he still has a certain tactical idea for the game, and quickly grasped the tactical commonalities between polo and football, and reminded Ashina Xiaoyun to pay attention to the opportunity for a quick counterattack.
"Brother Fei is right! If we can break this ball, we will quickly counterattack and strive for a blitz to win the victory! Ashina Xiaoyun nodded, agreed with Wang Fei's opinion, and quickly worked out the tactical division of labor for counterattacks: "The counterattack is still in charge of me and Brother Xi, and Wenxia is still responsible for the organization and passing of the midfield." Scarlet and Ji Ang don't have to press forward, just defend with all their might. ”
"Got it!" The other four roared in unison, and the momentum of the five-person team was like a rainbow!
In his previous life, Wang Fei, as a senior otaku, always watched more and participated less in sports competitions.
After crossing over to Datang, the polo match that he had to participate in because of the invitation of the goddess made Wang Fei experience the sense of belonging and glory brought by sports in addition to the fierce confrontation!
At the beginning, the little otaku was still a little uncomfortable. As the competition unfolded and the intensity of the confrontation escalated, Wang Fei began to feel a surging sense of intoxication.
It is undeniable that at least five points in this intoxication are due to being able to ride the horse and pass the ball with Ashina Xiaoyun; But the other five points really come from the charm of polo itself.
"If I had known that exercise was so enjoyable, I would definitely not have stayed at home every day in my previous life!" Wang Fei reflected on his past life: "Since God has so generously given me a chance to do it all over again, then I will do my best to improve and perfect myself, and meet the bloody storm of the future with a new state!" ”
The surging passion in his heart made Wang Fei involuntarily roar, holding the club tightly, his blood was full of blood, and his anger was like a milk tiger roaring valley, like a hidden dragon soaring into the abyss.
At this moment, Wang Fei suddenly understood what the spiritual impact he felt when he visited the ruins of Shattered Leaf City in Tokmak in his previous life!
At this moment, Wang Fei also realized more deeply where the spirit of the Tang Dynasty dragon leaping thousands of miles and looking at the world came from!
The reason why Datang is heroic, open, atmospheric, and vigorous is because every citizen of Datang has a thin blood flow and shines with the brilliance of attack. Thousands of bloody Tang Dynasty people are fused together, vast as the sky and surging as the sea, together forming the most brilliant nebula in the starry sky of Chinese civilization, which is still admired and missed after thousands of years.
"This is the essence of my Chinese civilization!" Wang Fei secretly made an oath in his heart: "I must do my best to protect this brilliant Chinese treasure, and I can't let her sink again!" ”
When Wang Fei's heart was churning, Gao Xiangui had already passed the ball vigorously and began to attack.
The polo crossed an arc in the air and flew directly towards Zhang Dejia on the left. The moment Zhang Dejia swung Gao Xiangui's swing, he had already slapped his horse forward and began to rush towards the flank of the five-person team.
"Sure enough, it's still a point of hitting Ji Ang! Step up your defense! Ashina Xiaoyun had long expected that the opponent might still choose Ji Ang, the softest persimmon, as the breakthrough point. So as soon as Zhang Dejia moved, she beckoned Ashina Wenxia and Ashina Jiang to move to the right together, ready to fight hard.
Wang Fei did not participate in the defense of Zhang Dejia, he stared at Wang Jue on the opposite side, preventing him from breaking into his defensive area.
Wang Fei stuck to his position and cruising near the goal.
While Zhang Dejia was galloping on his horse, Wang Jue also responded to the call and killed Wang Fei directly.
Before Ashina Xiaoyun and the others intercepted Zhang Dejia, he had already aimed at the polo that was bouncing on the ground, and gently swung to the right. The polo changed direction and slipped towards Wang Jue on the ground.
"Brother Fei be careful, they may want to use you as a breakthrough point!" Before Ashina Xiaoyun could remind Wang Fei, he heard Ashina Wenxia shouting loudly.
Ashina Xiaoyun frowned slightly, but she didn't say anything, just told her sister: "Wenxia, you keep an eye on Zhang Dejia, don't let him break too deep, I'll help Brother Fei." ”
Wang Fei waved his club, urging Chi Yanhua to step forward. He doesn't plan to defend passively, after the previous game, Wang Fei has understood that although Wang Qi is usually a little light, his strength in playing polo is not weak, especially his breakthrough ability is very strong. Therefore, Wang Fei planned to step forward to close the defense and press Wang Qi's offensive space.
Looking at Wang Jue, who was approaching quickly, Wang Fei was not afraid, and patted Chi Yanhua with his club to urge it to accelerate. After Chi Yanhua sprinted back and forth on the court, he was very excited, far more than when he usually trained alone with Wang Fei and one horse.
Wang Jue stared at the boccia ball from Zhang Dejia, and controlled the speed of the red horse accordingly. When the polo approached, Wang Jue swung his club, and the polo turned from a horizontal pass to a forward movement.
"He's going to break through with the ball!" Seeing this, Ashina Xiaoyun hurriedly reminded Wang Fei, afraid that he would not be able to grasp Wang Qi's intentions because of his lack of experience.
In a polo game, it is very difficult to break through with the ball. Because the player rides on the horse, it is only possible to control the polo through the club. Polo, on the other hand, is light and dexterous, and is much faster than the riders. Just playing with the ball requires a precise calculation of the power of the shot and the speed of the horse. The slightest difference between the two will result in the loss of control of the polo. It is even more difficult to dribble the ball while trying all out to break through the opponent's interception.
In the game just now, whether it was a three-person team or a five-person team, the two sides had at most short-distance dribbling, and neither of them really tried to break through with the ball.
The key to the breakthrough of both sides is to use repeated passes to tear apart the opponent's defense, so that the main attacker can take the opportunity to burst into the opponent's backfield and receive the ball and shoot.
Now Wang Jue is actually preparing to break through with the ball, which makes the five-person team a little nervous. Wang Jue dares to do this, he must rely on something, and he should not be taken lightly!
While Wang Qi was moving with the ball, he also shook the club in his hand from time to time, provoking Wang Fei's nerves.
Wang Fei urged his horse forward without fear, and Chi Yanhua hissed excitedly, and swooped down on the rolling polo on the ground at high speed. Because he wanted to control the speed of the ball, Wang Jue did not play the ball.
After seeing Wang Fei pounce on, Wang Qi smiled gloomily, and also slammed the red horse, and rushed towards Chi Yanhua.
Wang Fei leaned to the right in the saddle, lowered his head, held the polo club high, staring intently at the polo on the ground, always ready to steal the polo down.
"Brother Fei be careful!" When the crescent moon at the front of Wang Fei's polo stick was about to touch the polo, he suddenly heard three identical exclamations from the field!
Before Wang Fei could understand what was happening, he heard a sharp sound of breaking the air in midair.
Since the crossing, the sound that Wang Fei has heard the most is probably the whistling sound of various weapons breaking through the air.
Although he didn't understand what was going on, he quickly and subconsciously pressed his head against Chi Yanhua's mane.
While dodging the sound of breaking the air, Wang Fei slapped Chi Yanhua with his left hand. Chi Yanhua also felt the danger, and instead of advancing, he retreated.
Chi Yanhua had just taken a few steps back when Wang Fei saw a thick polo stick flash in front of his eyes with a sharp whistling sound.
Wang Fei looked up and saw Wang Qi with a smug expression on his face, swinging a special polo stick and hitting the polo on the ground vigorously.
The polo sped forward and crossed Chiyanhua. After Wang Qi saw that the ball had passed, he slammed the red horse, preparing to force a breakthrough while Wang Fei was in shock.
"Brother Jue, your action of grabbing the ball just now is too dangerous!" Ashina Xiaoyun had already rushed over, and she shouted angrily at Wang Qi.
Wang Qi laughed when he heard this: "Dangerous? Polo is so intense and exciting, but Brother Fei has too little experience and can't deal with it properly! ”
After finishing speaking, Wang Jue hit the red horse without stopping, and directly slapped the horse and chased after the polo.
Ashina Xiaoyun was speechless, in the official polo match, there is a special referee to decide whether such a breakthrough is illegal. However, Ashina Xiaoyun and the others were already familiar with each other, and it was only a game of play, so they did not specifically designate a referee, but according to the usual practice, everyone jointly determined whether there was a foul. Unexpectedly, this loophole was actually exploited by Wang Jue.
