Chapter 273: This is Koshien

"Boom!"

After a crisp shot, the shouts of the teenagers rang out.

"Hit!"

"Run, keep running!"

"Catch, catch!"

Since the children of the three hundred military households of Xuanfu arrived in Beijing, now, this has become a scenery in the West Garden of the Imperial City.

Speaking of which, baseball is a sport that is actually very simple, nothing more than a game of hitting and catching the ball. Xie Hong hadn't actually played before, he just knew the general rules, and after knocking the ball away, he started to run the bases; Run one lap and return to home plate to score; Before reaching the target base, the defender receives the ball, and the attacking side is out, which is roughly the rule.

Xie Hong was originally a little unsure, after all, it was too simple, and I didn't know if this thing would be accepted.

However, the charm of competitive sports does not lie in the rules, but in the contest between people, between teams, between physical strength and perseverance, which is far more fascinating than ordinary games.

Therefore, not only Zhengde quickly appreciated the charm, but even the three hundred teenagers quickly entered the role, under the leadership of Zhengde, the teenagers were divided into arrays, and they were in full swing every day, and the initial apprehension and cowardice of leaving their homeland were quickly thrown out of the clouds.

The enthusiasm of the teenagers is very contagious, not only Gu Dayong and other close attendants and Qian Ning and other entourages, but even Xie Hong, who is not very interested in sports, often looks on the sidelines after being busy with other things.

Of course, he will definitely not end up, the hands of craftsmen are very important, although Xie Hong is now more with his brains to play his skills, but his craftsmanship is fundamental.

At the beginning, Zhengde greeted him a few times, but later, he was too involved to the realm of selflessness, and he couldn't take care of Xie Hong, especially after having three hundred and one playmates.

In addition to the children of the Xuanfu military household, there is another big black man. These three hundred people are all relatives of the fans, and their loyalty should be guaranteed, but Zhengde is the emperor and the foundation of Xie Hong's team, no matter how careful he is, the personal bodyguard of the big black man is still necessary.

In addition, because the confrontation surname is very strong, baseball itself is also quite dangerous, so Xie Hong has also made careful preparations for this, and the set of close-fitting protective gear is enough to be called soft armor. Although Zhengde was reluctant, Xie Hong still deceived and coaxed him to force him to put it on.

Even so, every time he saw Zhengde's desperate sliding base, Xie Hong still pinched a cold sweat in his heart, for fear that he would be injured, Xie Hong was like this, not to mention Gu Dayong and others. Since Zhengde started playing baseball, the fat man has lost a lot of weight, all because he is worried.

"It should almost be time to start scaling up......," Xie Hong touched his chin and pondered.

At this time, it is the midsummer season of June, and now that the billiards masters have ended, the boom has subsided, and the people of Beijing are also looking forward to the new tricks of Zhenbao Zhai.

Originally, Xie Hong was engaged in that master tournament, but he just wanted to provide ordinary people with a ladder for advancement, in order to shake the status of scholars in terms of concept and public opinion. But after deciding to use baseball to train troops, he had a new idea, that is, to use billiards as a cover to promote baseball, so as to achieve the purpose of hiding from the world and recruiting and training troops.

Therefore, he instructed Lichun Yuan to come up with gambling tricks and set off a new trend in the capital. No matter what it is, as long as it is combined with interests, the influence will soar, not to mention that competitive sports themselves are also full of fun, and the effect of the two is far from being superimposed.

It has been more than half a month since the crow returned from Xuanfu with people. He made a lot of noise in the Xuanfu, but it didn't attract the attention of civil officials, especially the superintendent of the imperial history.

The reason is also very simple, unlike the capital where the tide is one after another, the topic of the emperor patrolling the border passes, and even the military parade in the streets, is still the most talked about topic among the people of Xuanfu, and when the people are excited, they often shout slogans such as "Long live the emperor" in a few voices, and then get the response of the whole city.

Wang Yushi was surprised a few times when he first arrived in Xuanfu, but after a long time, he was also accustomed to the inexplicable babbling of the Xuanfu people, and even turned a blind eye.

As for the trivial matter of missing a few hundred teenagers in the military household, it will not be in the field of vision of Wang Yushi. He is the supervisor of the imperial history, the pillar of the country, how many national events are in his heart, how many are ushered in and sent to socialize, how can he manage the trivial affairs of those small people? Isn't that a waste of people?

Therefore, although the crow made a lot of noise, which was contrary to the original intention of acting secretly, his actions in the Xuanfu were very smooth.

Passing the pass was a bit of a hassle. In order to be in a hurry, of course, when returning to Beijing, you have to go to Juyong Pass, the cold wind that has been blowing here for several months is the time when the false fire rises, and the people who come and go are very close, especially the team of more than 100 people, will definitely be subject to extremely strict interrogation when passing the customs.

Fortunately, Xie Hong prepared carefully, prepared dozens of caravans, broke them into parts, and passed the customs smoothly without causing any trouble. Originally, he prepared this means to cover the entry of the border army, but it turned out to be used on the Young Guards, and the scale of the original thousands of people was reduced to three hundred, and it was no problem to pass the customs in a fool's way.

Now the teenagers have all gone on the road, not only in baseball skills, but also in physical strength. In the border towns, ordinary military families, even if they are relatively wealthy, can only make ends meet. Food and clothing are simply a luxury for them.

When he arrived in the capital, it was naturally different, Xie Hong was now wealthy, not to mention three hundred, even if it was food for 30,000 people, he could afford it. There is meat at the meal, the meal is full, and the amount of exercise is huge, these are originally carefully selected sturdy teenagers, and now they all have the appearance of strong men.

It's okay for Xie Hong to be so common, such as crows and other fans who rarely enter the palace, and occasionally when they escort Xie Hong into the palace, they are a little surprised when they see these familiar faces. Because many teenagers have even jumped in height within a month, which makes people feel a lot of emotion.

Originally, Jiang Bin was still a little worried about Xie Hong's decision to recruit boy scouts, but after a month, he was also full of confidence, patted his chest and said: As long as the current situation is maintained, within a year, these three hundred people can be called warriors at least in terms of physical strength.

As for whether baseball has anything to do with fighting, Jiang Bin can't say, but with his experience, as long as he has enough strength, courage, and listens to orders, he is a good soldier, and after a few battles, he is a pawn, so he agrees with Xie Hong's training method.

Of course, in Scarface's view, the supply of big fish and meat, as well as the salary, a month down, a person is afraid that he will not be able to consume twenty taels of silver! Damn, what is trained like this is not an elite soldier, so what is an elite soldier?

With the recognition of professionals, Xie Hong's confidence is even stronger. Now, the follow-up measures have been prepared, and what I have to do is to show the baseball in front of the people of the capital, let Hou Defang and Lichun Yuan hype and cooperate, and then you can follow the model of the billiards competition and start to expand the scale.

After thousands of elite soldiers have been trained, they will have enough confidence, and they will no longer have to make small fights like now, but will be able to show their strength and carry out the expected policies one by one.

Revitalizing China and subduing Daming to the world, what an exciting goal. Those vigorous figures on the baseball field slowly turned into a team of elite sergeants in front of Xie Hong's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel excited, especially when Zhengde hit the ball and immediately had an amazing performance, he was even more excited.

"Boom!"

"Home run! It's a home run, and the emperor is mighty. ”

In the midst of cheers, Zhengde ran around the field in high spirits for a week, and he felt the heartfelt admiration and support of his companions around him. Although the title is the emperor, these cheers are not given to the emperor Zhengde, but to the fourth attacker Zhu Houzhao, who earned it back with his own ability.

Therefore, listening to Zhengde's ears, this full cheer is particularly pleasant. Compared with billiards, baseball is not inferior in skills, but the fun and passion are far superior, Zhengde feels that he is very lucky to be able to meet Xie Hong, the big brother. It was Xie Hong's whimsy that brought him so much fun and unprecedented glory.

For Zhengde, the glory brought by a home run is much stronger than listening to a group of white-bearded old men say something wrong about the emperor Shengming in the Taihe Palace. Every time those people recited various eulogies in their dumb voices, Zhengde felt that the Taihe Hall had become gloomy, just like the Yama Palace, and the atmosphere was really depressing.

"Big brother! I'm hitting another home run, and I'm going to finish them. Catching a glimpse of Xie Hong who was watching the battle, Zhengde ran over happily, shouting loudly while running, swaying his joy to the fullest.

"Well, well done." Even if he knew it for a long time, Xie Hong still had to sigh in his heart Zhengde's athletic talent, no matter what kind of sport, this little guy is extremely fast, including martial arts, in terms of skills alone, it has surpassed most fans.

"Big brother, you said before that it's not time to promote baseball, but now it's almost there, right?" Zhengde asked.

"Well, almost, the grounds for the Royal Park have been renovated, and the hype in the early stage is about the same." Xie Hong thought about it and immediately gave a definite answer: "Tomorrow!" It's tomorrow for an exhibition match at the grounds of the Royal Park and then ...... Finally, the major league baseball was launched, and the venue for the finals was located here in Xiyuan. ”

"Good!" Zhengde, of course, will not object.

"Hmm...... Why don't you name the course here, and call it Koshien? ”

"Okay, let's call it Koshien!"

So, in Xie Hong's spoof and Zhengde's inadvertently, Xiyuan's baseball stadium had a resounding name.
