Chapter 196: The Tibetan Romans

Lock horns! In fact, it is hand-to-hand fighting, and the form of the game is somewhat similar to the wrestling of later generations, which not only requires the players themselves to have a certain strength, but also requires extremely high skills, but this form of competition is actually really counted, and it is also a kind of competition of strength.

On the wrestling table built of solid wood, Fang Yiai and the Tibetan man named Mantu twisted their four arms together, their two big faces were flushed, and they slowly turned in circles trying to knock each other down. Now both of them are wearing ** upper body, and the lower body is only wearing a short sleeve with a cow nose, and the sweat on their bodies is steaming, which is in stark contrast to this harsh winter.

The audience below "Fang Yiai~ Fang Yiai......" The audience below was also very excited, shouting the name of Fang Yiai to cheer him on. Local combat is to have an advantage, and the audience below are all Tang people, so naturally they will not cheer for the Tubo people of Mantu.

"Huli, how long will this stalemate, I think my beloved brother seems to be a little bad, I would have let you go on stage if I knew it?" Li Su stood under the stage, looked at Fang Yiai on the stage with a worried face, and said. In fact, he is not very good at wrestling, and he can't see whether the situation on the field is good or bad?

When Hu Li heard this, he smiled and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, if the bereaved love meets the other party on the battlefield, then he will definitely die, after all, this brute is full of murderous awe, and he is a man who crawled out of the pile of dead people, and it is not at all comparable to a stunned young man like the bereavement of the bereavement!" ”

Li Su thought that Huli would comfort himself a few words, but he didn't expect the other party to say such a thing. Just wanted to open his mouth to complain, but heard the other party say again: "But now it's wrestling, the rules have already stated, it is not allowed to attack the opponent's vital parts, and even the means of attack are restricted, so that only pure strength and some close skills are left to compete." In terms of strength, the two are almost the same, but in terms of hand-to-hand combat skills. That brute figure had no special training at all, and he just relied on the instinct he had cultivated on the battlefield to fight, and he couldn't see anything at first. But it's about to fall to the downside! ”

As soon as Hu Li's words fell, he saw Fang Yiai on the stage suddenly hook his foot, hooking one of the legs that Mantu was struggling to stand unsteadily, and at the same time, his arms suddenly strengthened, and he knocked the other party to the ground at once. Before the other party could stand up, Fang Yiai followed up and grabbed Mantu's legs, dragged it back a few meters, and then suddenly threw the other party up. As a result, Mantu's body was vacated, and he couldn't find a place to borrow his strength, so he had to grab it with both hands. I screamed in my mouth!

The audience saw the mutation on the stage, and while applauding loudly, they also retreated sharply one after another very wisely, and Fang Yiai looked at a vacant space under the stage, and threw the other party down with both arms.

"Boom~" with a loud bang. Mantu's heavy body slammed to the ground, raising a puff of gray dust, but the other party was obviously not injured, and stood up again, screaming that he wanted to rush to the stage again. It's a pity that according to the rules of the game, being thrown off the stage is considered a loss. Therefore, a few Tubo companions in the audience immediately grabbed him, and then spoke in Tubo for a long time before the barbarian figure quieted down.

Fang Yiai on the stage narrowly defeated the other party with a move, in the cheers of the audience, he was full of pride, he did not forget to make a provocative gesture to the brute picture of the audience, and the result was that the other party was angry again, and he wanted to break into the stage, after all, he was known as the first strong man in Tubo, and he had never been defeated in terms of strength, but he didn't expect to be inattentive today and won twice by a Tang man, which really made him feel extremely humiliated, fortunately, the surrounding Tubo people were almost desperately pulled, otherwise they might really stage a brawl.

The wrestling decided the winner, and then it was the last game on the first day of the competition, but there were not many people who could play the javelin and wrestling, because in the pre-Song dynasty, the army rarely used the throwing gun as a weapon, even if someone used it, it was generally used as a hunting tool, after all, this thing has a small killing range, and it can only be used once, and it is inconvenient to carry, so few people deliberately practice.

Li Su did not introduce the javelin competition into the Winter Games at the beginning, but later found that the competition items were a little small, so he had to take them out to make up the number, but he didn't expect that there were many people who signed up, after all, compared to other events, the javelin throwing requirements are very low, as long as you don't step on the line, the rest is casual, as long as you can throw the javelin.

It's just that when the javelin thrower came on the field, Li Su was stunned, because he found that the appearance of the Tibetan players participating in the competition was very strange, although the outfit was the same as other Tubo people, but this guy was tall, with curly brown hair, high nose and deep eyes, and blue pupils.

"Brother Yan, why do you see that Tubo man who participated in the competition, why does he look so strange?" It just so happened that Yan Bei was next to him, Li Su hurriedly pulled him over and pointed to the Tubo man on the field and asked.

"What's strange about this, Tubo and the Western Regions are very close to each other, and many people from the Western Regions will go to Tubo to do business or live, so it is normal for Tubo to have people from the Western Regions!" Yan Bei replied indifferently, in his eyes, the people in the Western Regions all looked like this, and there was nothing strange at all.

"No, this guy is definitely not from the Western Regions!" Li Su said with great certainty. Thanks to the information technology developed in later generations, whether it is television, television or the Internet, everyone can understand the world outside their own country. Although the people of the Western Regions are also high-nosed and deep-eyed, they are more like the Arabs of Central Asia and West Asia in later generations, and the Tubo people in front of him are a standard European race, and even he can be sure that the other party should be Southern Europeans, because it was originally the birthplace of European civilization, and the contact with Eastern civilization is also the most frequent, and the famous Roman Empire is located there.

Thinking of Rome, Li Su's heart suddenly moved, as if he had caught something critical, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't think of it, which made him have a very bad premonition. And the next game just confirmed Li Su's premonition.

The style of the javelin is designed by Li Su according to the two ends of the two ends and the middle is thick, which can extend the flight time of the javelin in the air and make the throwing distance longer. Of course, it is impossible to use aluminum alloy for the gun body, and there is no aluminum available in this era, so the gun body is mainly made of hardwood, and the tips at both ends are made of stainless steel, which is very smooth and will not increase wind resistance.

Although there are many people who participate in the javelin competition, but for this new type of project, few people can control the tricks, so most of them can only throw thirty or forty steps, and some can reach more than fifty steps, which is mainly because of the reasonable reason of the javelin design, otherwise most people can throw twenty or thirty steps at most.

However, when the Tibetan European came on the field, he threw sixty paces away the first time, and the second and third times were even farther than the other, and the final result reached seventy-two steps, according to one step and so on to 1.3 meters, then the guy's farthest throwing distance has reached more than 90 meters, and he is almost about to break the 100-meter mark.

Seeing this situation, Li Su couldn't help but regret a little, he didn't expect that there were also many talents among the Tubo people, and he had already won two championships on the first day of the competition.

Although he regretted it in his heart, since the other party won the game in front of everyone, he couldn't play tricks, so he had to give the other party an award without smiling, but after the award, Li Su specially summoned the other party, and then with the help of Yanbei, he communicated in Tubo dialect.

As Li Su guessed, the person in front of him is indeed a European, and he is indeed from the Eastern Roman Empire, his name is too long, Yanbei can't translate it, only from the pronunciation of the other party called Siro, and according to this Siro, he was born in the Roman great Cleopus family, and he is also a Roman nobleman, but unfortunately five years ago, when his army fought with the Great Cannibal, that is, the newly rising Arab Empire, unfortunately most of them died, and he shamefully became a prisoner, Later, it was sold to a merchant who went to the East, and only two years ago he was exiled to Tubo, and coincidentally participated in the army of Tubo to quell the rebellion, because he was brave in battle, and his personal ability was outstanding, so he was absorbed by the royal court guard of Songtsen Gampo, and this time he came to the Tang Dynasty with the army.

Listening to Yanbei's translation, Li Su suddenly realized, he finally thought of what was his bad premonition before the game? In his previous life, he had watched some movies and television about Rome, and he remembered that when he was on the battlefield, throwing guns was one of the standard weapons of the Roman army, and ordinary Roman soldiers would go through special training in throwing guns, and this is the reason why this guy Ciro could throw a javelin so far, after all, compared to these amateur players in Datang, people are real javelin professionals.

Because of the limited time and the lack of translation, Li Su did not get much information from Xiluo's mouth, only knowing that the Eastern Roman Empire defeated the Persians more than ten years ago, but now it was defeated by the Great Cannibals, and a large area of land was lost, while the power of the Great Eclipse was expanding rapidly, and even went to war with Persia and Rome, and all of them had the upper hand, and the two ancient countries with a long history were powerless.

Li Su doesn't need these news for the time being, but it's always good to know more, so after thanking Xiluo, the unlucky guy who is in a foreign land, he sent the other party back, of course, Li Su didn't forget to give the other party a reward, after all, maybe there will be things to use him in the future.
