Chapter 11: The Polo Storm (I)

"Drink! Drink! ”

Bai Yuanguang turned Duan Xiushi with his arm, and said to him: "Cheng Gong, the food in this wine shop is good today, has you changed the chef?" ”

"Haha! It's good, little two, and another plate of braised fish. ”

"You guys!" Wu Niang was so angry that she slapped the table heavily, "You help him bully me, I'll tell Second Uncle Feng to go." ”

Li Qing'an's head suddenly became a little big, and he called Feng Changqing the second uncle Feng, is this foggy girl ......

At this time, Xi Yuanqing, who had not spoken, smiled: "Qilang, you may not know Wu Niang yet!" She is our handsome little daughter, nicknamed ...."

"Xi slow gun, you are not allowed to speak!" Wu Niang was anxious, and glared at Xi Yuanqing fiercely, Xi Yuanqing hurriedly raised his hand and smiled: "Okay!" Good! I don't say it, just say it. ”

Wu Niang glanced at Li Qingan, "Hey! What is your name? ”

Li Qing'an hurriedly smiled: "My name is Li Qing'an, they all call me Qilang, if you don't want the leopard skin, I will sell it tomorrow." ”

"I paid for it, you dare to sell it!"

After a pause, Wu Niang asked him again: "Then what weapon do you use?" ”

Li Qingan grinned, this little lady shouldn't want to give herself a nickname, right?

Bai Yuanguang was the most gloating, and he hurriedly said: "Wu Niang, Qilang is using a bow and arrow." ”

"Okay, I'll call you Li Smelly Bow in the future, I said Li Smelly Bow, send me the leopard skin tomorrow, do you hear?"

When the other three heard that Li Qing'an had the nickname of Li Stinky Bow, they couldn't help but laugh together.

Li Qing'an had a bitter face and secretly wondered: "His grandmother's, why did Gao Xianzhi give birth to such a daughter?" ”

........

After drinking, Gao Wu went home first, Duan Xiushi and Xi Yuanqing had other things, and Bai Yuanguang and Li Qingan returned to the barracks all the way.

"Qilang, don't underestimate Wu Niang, she is skilled in bows and horses, and her swordsmanship is very high, and several men are not her opponents."

"I can tell you all like her, right?"

"Yes! Anxi Jun likes her very much, not because her surname is refreshing, but because she is very righteous, and when she sees something unfair, she has to take care of it, last year Kang Huaishun's son whipped the soldier on the street, and she saw it, not only beat Kang Huaishun's son hard, but also forced him to apologize to the soldier, and now I feel relieved when I think about it. ”

Li Qingan nodded, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked with a smile, "What's her nickname?" ”

Bai Yuanguang laughed, "She likes to give people nicknames the most, so everyone also gives her a nickname, called Gaojiaofeng, but you must not mention it in front of her, she seems to be very dissatisfied with you." ”

Li Qingan smiled dumbly, Gao Wu is very tall, and his legs are long and thin, isn't he just a tall chicken?

"Shichiro, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you something." Bai Yuanguang slapped his head heavily, and hurriedly said, "There is a polo match tomorrow, you have to participate." ”

Li Qingan nodded happily and smiled: "I haven't officially competed yet!" It's time to test it with actual combat. ”

........

Polo in the Tang Dynasty, has reached the point of fanaticism, from the emperor to the pawn hawkers, no one loves this sport, it requires participants not only to have a strong physique, superb riding skills and accurate shooting, but also to have the most tenacious will and extremely sensitive reactions.

Polo from the day it was born is known as 'military play', is a must training for Datang soldiers, most of the high-level polo players in Datang are born in the army, especially the border army with many cavalry, but also talented, polo is also deeply loved in the Anxi Army, with many high-level polo players, won the third place in the polo competition held in Datang last spring.

In just a few dozen days of exposure to the sport, Li Qing'an has already shown a transcendent talent, his ability to capture fighter planes and the precision of his cane at the door have been praised by countless people, and all he lacks now is a kind of tournament experience, which needs to be honed after competition.

Today's game is a match between the Fumeng Lingcha team and the Gao Xianzhi team, these two teams have the best polo players in Anxi, Gao Xianzhi is Duan Xiushi, Bai Yuanguang, Li Qing'an, He Ba Yurun and other famous generals, and Fumeng Lingcha has Bai Xiaode, Li Fei Shouyu, Liu Qing, Liu Zhikui and other masters, ten people on each side, and the game was held on the Qiuzima Stadium.

The polo field is about 1,000 steps long, equivalent to the size of three football fields now, the stick is three feet long, the shape is like a glaive knife, the size of the ball is like an orange, and the hole is a round hole dug out of a foot square on a wooden board, and the back is braided with a soft pocket to win by hitting the opponent's hole.

The whole game is divided into three rounds, each game is one pillar of incense, and the one with the most goals wins.

The game attracted more than 5,000 spectators, not only soldiers and military families, but also many civilians in Qiuzi City who heard the news and rushed to watch the battle.

On the viewing platform next to the polo field, there are Jiedu envoy Meng Lingcha, deputy capital guard, four towns soldier and horse envoy Gao Xianzhi, supervising army Bian Lingcheng, deputy capital guard Cheng Qianli, escort Ya Bi Sichen, Xingguan Wang Tao, Changshi Kang Huaishun and other senior civil and military officials of the Anxi Army.

Fumeng Lingcha was about fifty years old, with slender eyes and dark skin, perhaps because of his age, his body had become a little fat, and he no longer had the might and ambition to lead the army to the north and south.

He glanced at Gao Xianzhi, squinted and smiled, "Xianzhi, how about we set up a lottery head as usual?" ”

Gao Xianzhi leaned over and smiled: "Yes!" ”

"That's good, the old rule, we each give fifty times, and the winner wins."

Bian Lingcheng, the supervisor next to him, said with a smile: "Our family also has fun, I have a pearl, and whoever wins will belong to whomever wins." ”

"Father-in-law Bian, there are ten people in a team, but you only give one pearl, how can you divide it after winning!"

Gao Wu, the daughter who was sitting behind Gao Xianzhi, interjected and laughed.

"Wu Niang, adults speak, don't talk too much." Gao Xianzhi gently reprimanded her daughter.

Fu Meng Lingcha smiled, "What Wu Niang said makes a lot of sense! Don't be stingy, just pay some more money to help the fun! ”

Bian Lingcheng coughed dryly, nodded and smiled: "Since Wu Niang has an opinion, our family will have to bleed, I will make another hundred runs, and the winner will win." ”

"What about Mingzhu?" Gao Wu asked reluctantly.

Bian Lingcheng twisted out a pearl the size of a walnut, shook it in front of her and said with a smile: "If your broken knife and gun team wins, this pearl will be yours!" ”

"Really?"

Gao Wu was overjoyed, and she shouted loudly: "Duan Xiaojian, ash stick, Li stinky bow, you have to fight hard!" ”

The surrounding Anxi soldiers laughed one after another, and Fu Meng Lingcha also laughed, and after laughing, he asked, "Wu Niang, who is Li Yangong?" ”

"That's, that's...."Gao Wu suddenly forgot Li Qing'an's real name.

"It's the Li Qing'an who shot forty turquoise cavalrymen with a single bow and a single arrow, and I accepted him as a tooth general." Gao Xianzhi said with a smile.

At this time, someone snorted lightly and whispered: "If you have a little ability, you will immediately take it for private use, if you don't know, you still think that Anxi Jun's surname is Gao!" ”

Gao Xianzhi suddenly changed color, stood up and shouted: "Cheng Duhu, you made it clear, what do you mean by this?" ”
