Chapter 459: The First Battle in Xiuzhou (Part I)
Qiu Qiongying, the newly joined protector of the Old Nine Gates, is a loyal reader of "The Age of Discovery".
Every time the Alchemist Army started to talk about the latest chapter, she went to listen.
She doesn't know what romance is, but she likes the colorful adventure life, seeing the world so wide, and meeting so many interesting friends.
She admires Lin Ran, not only because of Lin Ran's personal charm, but also because she is very good to her.
The day after Qiu Qiongying became the protector of the Dharma, she got a pearl necklace and a gourd-shaped hairpin.
She sensitively found that Hu Sanniang and Ping Wan'er Pan Jinlian already had four women wearing this kind of gourd jewelry, but the colors were different.
I don't know if there's some heavenly machine in it.
Hu Sanniang also liked Qiu Qiongying very much, and when she heard that her parents were killed, she was even more sympathetic and treated her own sister.
Qiu Qiongying was originally called Master, but Hu Sanniang said that Master was Lin Chao, and she was just a senior sister.
While waiting for the professor to teach guns, sticks, knives and horses, Hu Sanniang was secretly frightened, and Qiu Qiongying made rapid progress.
Especially in archery, although she can't use Hu Sanniang's heavy sniper crossbow, she is skilled in using light crossbows.
In particular, Lin Lan sent a steel ball pistol, and Qiu Qiongying was accurate in 20 steps.
She regarded it as a treasure and held it in her hand when she slept.
Qiu Qiongying just didn't understand something, two low-status boys, Ping Wan'er and Pan Jinlian, coquettishly asked for this and that in front of Lin Chao every day.
However, Hu Sanniang, the protector of the Dharma who is respected by everyone outside, does not take the initiative to make love with Lin Chao, and looks like Hu Sanniang does not look like an outsider.
She took an opportunity to talk about this and asked, "Senior sister, as Dharma protectors, are we going to follow the real person all the time?"
Hu Sanniang nodded, her life was completely centered on Lin Chao.
If you leave him, you really don't know what to do.
Qiu Qiongying asked in a low voice, "Can you get married and have children?"
Hu Sanniang asked rhetorically: "You already have a sweetheart?"
Qiu Qiongying said: "Where is it, but I hope I am an expert who can also use guns." ”
Hu Sanniang said: "Without a real person, your steel ball gun would not appear in this world." No matter what kind of expert you are, you should know what it means to be a real person, and we are his protectors, so we should always follow him. ”
Qiu Qiongying thought to herself that I understood, but why didn't you take the initiative at all.
deliberately said: "I think those two boys are very likable, why is the senior sister not like them?"
Hu Sanniang blushed, "How did that kind of thing come out." ”
Qiu Qiongying said: "The real person is also a man, and he also wants to have a daughter in his arms." Senior sister always holds it like this, how can a real person be so close?"
Hu Sanniang didn't expect to be told by a little girl, although what she said made sense, she couldn't do it.
She was originally a passive person, and she admired Lin Chao very much, even if she had an idea, she didn't dare to implement it.
Qiu Qiongying saw that she couldn't move Hu Sanniang, and thought that she could try it.
She took advantage of the chaos in the forest to draw pictures in the study, and at this time only she and Hu Sanniang were there, and the boy was not allowed to come over to disturb.
Deliberately approached and said, "Real person, you know so much, the disciple wants to learn." ”
Lin Lan stopped his pen and asked, "What do you want to learn?"
Qiu Qiongying pointed to the picture and said, "What kind of gun is this, can it be made?"
Lin Lan was painting cannons and muskets of various sizes, he shook his neck and sighed: "If you can build it, the Liao Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom can be destroyed." ”
Seeing this, Hu Sanniang hurriedly came up and pinched Lin Ran's shoulder, and Qiu Qiongying sat on his lap obediently.
"A real person is so powerful, can't he be the Great Khan of the Liao Kingdom?"
Lin Chao hugged her and smiled: "I can't say this, not only will others be scared to death, but my military power will be taken away." ”
Qiu Qiongying said coquettishly: "The disciple is wrong. The disciple has something to ask for a real person, can he let An Shi in, and sometimes he can accompany the disciple to relieve his boredom. ”
Lin smiled and said, "Okay, Sanniang will arrange it, don't let her be tired, be a steward or something." ”
"Real people are so good to disciples. ”
Qiu Qiongying was held in Lin Chao's arms, and poked her head out to give Hu Sanniang a look.
Hu Sanniang shook her head slightly, she is not the kind of woman who is a bird. What's more, if she sits on Lin Chao's body, Lin Chao is afraid that she will be uncomfortable.
......
The Great Song Morning Post published a new entertainment called the "Great Song Football Match" that allowed people to buy tickets to watch it.
The specifications are very high, the general adviser Zhao Guanjia, and the general person in charge is Taiwei Gao.
There are a total of eight teams, one royal bow team, four Beijing forbidden army, one alchemy army, and two private people can sign up by themselves, and the championship bonus is 10,000 taels of silver.
This was also Lin Chao's idea, he originally told Zhu Xiaotian to promote the establishment of a football game and tell him about the mature system of future generations.
Song Guo already has a mature football organization called Qiyun Society, and Song Huizong was a member of it when he was still a prince.
If you want to hold it, you have to find Qiyun Club, but I didn't expect Gao Yu to be interested.
As a football expert, he is happy to see it come to fruition, and he has taken over the power.
So Zhu Xiaotian became the general sponsor, and Lin Chao was the chief planner.
Construction is underway on the outskirts of the city, and an exhibition match under the new rules has begun in Tokyo.
One side is the palace front army, and the other side is the alchemy army.
Both sides wore brand new jerseys, with the referees wearing uniforms.
Before the game, he shook hands and kicked off the ball, and he also showed off his footwork, which can make the ball roll everywhere on his body, causing a lot of applause.
The scene in the middle was hot, some people fouled at every turn, some people had quarrels, some people moved, and some people were injured and carried away on stretchers.
From time to time, Lin Ran reminded the referee to blow the whistle and show a yellow or red card.
And in the surrounding audience, crowds of scolding appeared.
The scene was extremely hot, and the people of Tokyo could see the charm of a football game.
The second exhibition match was of a very high standard, and Song Huizong was in charge himself.
The competition was between the civil officials of the capital and the children of the royal family, and the privy envoy Tong Guan served as the referee.
Seeing that those officials and relatives of the emperor couldn't run, fell and climbed to the ground at every turn, and shot the penalty kicks, Song Huizong laughed.
When there was another penalty kick in the royal team, Song Huizong personally went off the field and shot at the goal.
The goalkeeper pounced very hard, but he didn't save, and the audience cheered long live.
After the two exhibition matches, "Da Song Morning Class" tried its best to render it, and the registration office for the Tokyo City competition was overcrowded, and even street vendors wanted to form a team to join.
It's just that it must be approved by the Qiyun Club of the Football Association, which will eliminate most people.
There was already a football fever in Song Kingdom, but there was no large-scale league.
At present, a more standardized competition system and new balls appeared, and suddenly rose, and the other three major capitals also began to organize, and even proposed that the four major capitals hold finals.
Whether it is Song Huizong, Gao Yu, or Zhu Xiaotian, they are all busy with football, no one talks to Lin Chao about anything else, and Lin Chao is very comfortable.
He took out two soccer balls and said that they were kept for the finals, but Song Huizong was reluctant to see it, so he took them to play by himself in the palace.
The circulation of the "Great Song Morning Post" has exceeded 30,000 copies, and in addition to the various news of the football match, many people have scolded Lin Chao on it.
He said that he deliberately pushed the football game to make people lose their minds.
Lin Chao didn't care, and took advantage of the expansion of the newspaper's circulation, so Hu Cheng arranged a group in each city to specialize in hairdressing newspapers and collecting news.
To Lin Chao's surprise, without his proposal, Zhu Xiaotian's tavern had already begun to have standardized gambling.
With his support, Zhu Xiaotian set up a special gaming department, and the purported profits were used for football.
However, the gaming department was soon taken away by Gao Yu and became Song Huizong's private treasury.
