Chapter 38: Formation

Hu Yuan, the third baton of the Ningcheng team, finished fifth in the 400m final, and had an absolute advantage among all the third-best players in this group.

The players of the Beijing team seemed to be weak, and they were quickly thrown away by the Yucheng players. Hu Yuan saw that there was hope of surpassing, and the more he ran, the more confident he became, at this time, Ning Cheng only needed to surpass one team to directly advance to the finals, but Hu Yuan was not in a hurry, but distributed his physical fitness very evenly.

Entering the last straight, Hu Yuan finally overtook the third baseman in the capital.

"Beautiful!" Yu Weiming and the other three coaches were all in good spirits, and with Lu Wei pressing the formation in the fourth base, there was no problem at all in entering the finals.

It turns out that they are still a little conservative, how could Lu Wei accept the second place in the group, after taking over the baton, he let go of his coercion unabashedly, Hu Yuan's gang just now is Ningcheng's most advantageous stick in the preliminaries, Lu Wei is now less than 3 meters away from the Yucheng players who are ranked first.

He maintained his rhythm, and after a corner, the gap between the two narrowed to about 1 meter.

"Director Wang, during this time, you two masters and apprentices have worked the corners, this speed of progress is really unbelievable!" Sun Jun can be said to have witnessed all the competitions that Lu Wei participated in during this time, and he also witnessed his metamorphosis progress.

The fourth baseman of the Yucheng team had begun to panic at this time, he could already hear Lu Wei's footsteps, coupled with the pressure generated by the opponent's unscrupulous coercion, so he could only run desperately.

Lu Wei ran closer and closer, and finally managed to overtake at the corner where the straight cut into the corner.

There was no suspense in the next race, and Lu Wei maintained his rhythm in the last 100 meters and helped the Ningcheng team win the first place in the group, with a time of 3:05.81.

Lu Wei was relatively calm, but the other three team members had excitement on their faces that could not be concealed. The three of them have not won a medal in this competition, and compared to Lu Wei, who won the gold medal, they have great expectations for the 400-meter relay race, and their desire for results is also stronger.

For Lu Wei, the preliminaries are not very challenging, but he is not very satisfied with the 3 championships, in his heart, only to shoot, he should win the first place, there is nothing to shake.

In the next two group competitions, Shanghai won the first place in the second group competition with a time of 3:05.12, and the first place in the third group was Guangdong City with a time of 3:5.43.

Seeing this result, the Ningcheng relay team, which was full of confidence just now, was a little dignified. These two teams ran very easily, except for Lu Wei, the Ningcheng team did not use all their strength, and the other three people did their best, so they could only barely rank in the top three in the preliminaries.

"I found a very serious problem, Tan Tianhao from Guangdong City did not participate in the relay preliminaries......" Yu Weiming pointed to the direction of the Guangdong relay team and found that Tan Tianhao was high-fived with the four teammates participating in the competition.

"This is normal, the track and field strength of Guangdong City is already very strong, and it should not be difficult to find 4 players with good strength to participate in the relay preliminaries. Alas, our strength still seems to be a little worse than theirs......" The joy in Zhou Hu's heart was washed away at once.

"We couldn't even make it to the finals in the previous competition, why are you still crying one by one if you have the hope of winning the top 3 this time, when did your appetite become so big!" Wang Qiao felt very helpless, when did these guys become so greedy.

"But I really want to win the championship, I couldn't get the ranking in the past because the team couldn't even get together four people with similar strength, and now that Lu Wei is here, I'm afraid this is our last chance......" Wu Bin cried with a sad face, it can be seen that he is really sad this time.

There is nothing wrong with his words, except for Lu Wei, the age of the other three people in the next competition is probably around 30 years old, and this competition is their pinnacle battle.

"It's not like there hasn't been a game yet, maybe we'll fight back in the final, keep the confidence!" Zhou Hu patted Wu Bin's shoulder and comforted, and Hu Yuan, who usually trains together, also came up to comfort him.

Lu Wei was very puzzled: "In terms of ability, this product is the most rubbish in our team, if he gives more strength in this competition, we may already be ranked first in the overall score in the preliminaries, at this time he looks very sad, and the most bizarre thing is that others are still competing to comfort him." A good team can improve people's sentiments......"

"It's really gratifying to see everyone's team spirit so strong! Since the atmosphere is so good, I'll tell you a bad news, there is a member of the Shanghai team whose score is about 45.5 seconds, but he can't increase his training because of physical reasons, otherwise he is probably a very powerful player. Based on past circumstances, he will only compete in the relay final and he should be playing tomorrow. ”

It was Director Jiang who spoke, he had been accompanying the leaders on the rostrum for the past few days, and when he reached the 400-meter relay, he couldn't help it, so he said hello to the leaders and came down.

"......" Everyone was speechless when they heard this.

"I watched today's preliminaries, your lineup arrangement is a bit conservative, the strongest two people put the last two sticks, it looks very solid, if the front is too far behind, I'm afraid it will be very hard to catch up behind. The team competition is the most difficult to predict, and it is difficult to measure the performance of the team members in the competition by their usual results, and it is not uncommon to over-perform at a high level.

In today's game, Zhu Chenbin of Shanghai was arranged in the first base, so as to establish an advantage very early and avoid the situation of 'traffic jam' in the last three sticks after the merger. ”

"It seems that we have to think about the arrangement of the stick again, let's do it today, everyone go back and have a good rest, and tomorrow you will definitely create the history of Ningcheng!" Relax and go back without thinking too much! Yu Weiming asked the coach and the players to go back to the hotel to rest first, after all, there is still one day before the finals, so there is no need to spend energy here now.

On this day, several coaches didn't have the heart to sleep. It is the players who need to recuperate, and it is useless to maintain sufficient physical fitness by themselves, so everyone called Coach Jiang to discuss the lineup for tomorrow's finals repeatedly.

Now it seems that today's lineup in the preliminaries is the most stable and the least competitive, and it is foreseeable that if this lineup is used to participate in the finals, I am afraid that the hope of winning the championship will be dashed in the first place. Judging from today's situation, Tang Yang may be thrown to sixth place or even further down after the first baton.

After discussion, the core issue is actually how to arrange Hu Yuan's sticks.

In addition to the lineup setting of the preliminaries, the second sorting method is to put Hu Yuan in the second stick, the first straight of this stick can be paralleled, and Hu Yuan's ability advantage can be used to give the Ningcheng team a good position when merging.
