Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 84: Cuju training

Wu Xie explained on the side: "This Cuju play has the meaning of attacking and defending in battle."

In this regard, Zhao Wuxi is a little proud. In this era of extremely scarce folk entertainment projects, he has long foreseen the upsurge of Cuju in Chengxiang.

In fact, in the Spring and Autumn Period, the prototype of Cuju appeared. Legend has it that it was invented by the Yellow Emperor. After defeating Chiyou in the battle of the deer, the Yellow Emperor killed Chiyou, made his stomach into a sphere called "Ju", and ordered his soldiers to shoot him with arrows, kick him with feet, and reward those who hit the most. The ancient legend, although I don't know if it is true or not, but since then, there has been a tradition in various countries to "make a cuju play to train a samurai".

Probably because the country of the Shaohao clan where Chiyou is located is in the Shandong area. Currently, Cuju is mainly popular in Qilu, and Wu-shirt has also been played in Xinjiang City Square.

But that kind of Cuju is still a one-person entertainment. The performers use the feet, chest, back and other parts to kick the "ju" as a dance with the rhythm of the music. Skilled people can also play drums and music at the same time. Whenever they attract crowds, the witty merchants of Qi State use this method to attract the crowd first, and then sell their goods.

After arriving in Chengyi, Zhao Wuxi proposed to Wang Sunqi to train the village soldiers with Cuju when he first trained troops to assign soldiers.

Because if they came up, they would let these vulgar country people listen to golden drums, distinguish flags, practice battle formations, and practice archery, and at the same time, they would be ordered to dig ditches and so on. It’s okay in the short term, but in the long run, although the villagers dare not object, they will definitely lack interest and be inefficient. Rather than doing so, it is better to do what he likes and seduce him with the play of Cuju.

"Cuju", which has been transformed without a shirt, is different from Qidi Cuju, and is more imitated from football and rugby in later generations.

The "foot balls" played by everyone in the field are made by craftsmen. They use leather as the primary sac, and there are swollen pig urine bubbles inside, and then they are made of hair, rice bran, etc. Although they are not comparable to the football of later generations, their elasticity and quality are still better. Not bad.

Of course, the hardware facilities in the field are too simple compared to the big football fields of later generations: on both sides of the field, two bamboo trees are planted, each with a height of several feet. Draw a line, just build the soil as the boundary. Wu-shirt is based on the football rules of later generations, allowing two teams to play, each with 11 players, and the one with the most **** into the goal wins.

At the same time, the physical collision of rugby is also retained, and the foul requirements are not so strict, so the confrontation of this game is very fierce, and even wrestling techniques are allowed to be used in physical contact.

Through Cuju, one can exercise the physique of the soldiers; secondly, through fierce physical confrontation, it can stimulate the soldiers' bravery and unyielding spirit; threely, the two sides play against each other, and the team spirit of the soldiers can be cultivated; There are rules, and can make soldiers develop the habit of obeying orders. In the end, "if you are ordered, you will move forward bravely, and if you are banned, you will keep your head down."

By then, even if these new pawns are pulled directly into the battlefield, facing the roaring chariots, they will probably be able to "hold the spear in the palm of the hand without shaking, and spit in the mouth".

Therefore, compared to the crowd drinking and gambling money in the Japanese army in the past, Cuju can be said to be beneficial and harmless, and it also has the effect of boosting morale. The villagers joked that as long as they could play a few more games of Cuju every month, they would not feel tired from work or practice.

Of course, the premise of loving playing and watching is to be able to eat and be hungry. Who has the strength to run around and shout on the field? At present, with the support of Dou, Jia, and Sang, Zhao Wuxi is doing his best to provide food and clothing for the people of the country, and to ensure that the savages and gangsters will not be cold and hungry. Just eat a bowl of brown rice.

If you want to make "food", this "people's event" to a higher level, you have to wait for next month's wheat harvest. However, seeing that the beans are just ripe these days, there is a delicious snack that can be made and tasted first.

At this moment, the surrounding people let out another violent cry, and at the same time, there were also regretful sighs. Zhao Wuxi came back to his senses, and when he looked around, he saw a tall warrior in a soap-colored livery standing in front of his house, stably catching a shot that was almost shot in.

That person is Mucha.

As can be seen from their performance on the Cuju arena, the four close associates of Zhao Wuxi have different styles.

Mucha, like his personal guard, only has one word on the field. It is rare to see him participating in the attack, but he guards like a rock and does not move like a mountain.

Yu Xi is the commander of the light knights. He is agile and agile. He has a cavalry mentality that is also used in Cuju.

Tian Ben is not only stronger than his skills, he also has a lot of fancy moves, and he is also fierce on the field. He dared to go all out, and he would not back down when his head was bleeding.

And the well of the savage, just like his name, strokes and strokes, quite satisfactory, does not look passionate, can not surprise people. But he is good at mobilizing the pawns who were originally lowly in position, kneading them into a whole, and winning with the overall cooperation. His Xu Rulin is the most suitable for Zhao Wuxi's original intention to promote Cuju.

Their style was also brought into the two schools under their jurisdiction, so Wu Xie privately called them the Four Sima of Fenglin Volcano.

Wang Sunqi also commented in private. He said: "Mu Xia, the material of the palace armor; Yu Xi, the material of the selection of the front; Tian Ben, the material of the battle; Jing, the material of the military Sima." The four have their own advantages.

In addition, Yang Tong Rong was named by him as a material for the defense of the township and city.

When asked about himself, Wang Sunqi laughed and didn't answer.

At that time, he asked jokingly, "Wang Sun Zhicai, is he a brigade commander? A teacher commander? An army commander?"

Wang Sunqi just bowed slightly: "Qi only wants to imitate Fei Chang and Xi Zhong, the role of the charioteer is enough."

Zaifu was the distant ancestor of the Zhao family, the imperial court of Shang Tang, while Xi Zhong was the ancestor of the Xue state, the Chazheng of the Empress Xia.

Following the rules and focusing on one's own duties, this is Wang Sunqi's temperament, but Wu Xie felt that in that case, it would be really overkill.

Having said that, the new **** commander he intends to appoint will be selected from these four two Sima.

But Mu Xia and Yu Xi each have full-time jobs, so Tian Ben and Jing are the only ones left. However, Tian Ben's wicked young man's temperament does not change, and his personality is like a wild horse.

Regarding Jing, Zhao Wu Xie was a little hesitant. He felt that Jing was of course loyal to him, but he also couldn't figure out his character: Jing worked under Wu Xie's hands. The place where the taste is right seems to be separated from Zhao Wuxi by a layer.

"Boom!"

At this time, the "referee" on the sidelines sounded the gong, announcing the end of the kick.

Zhao Wuxi realized that he was thinking about things again, so he couldn't help shaking his head with a wry smile. With the authority in his hands, the responsibility would also be unknowingly placed on his shoulders.

Well, anyway, the status of these four people is only the people of the country, and they have not yet been rewarded and awarded as scholars. Let Yang Tongrong be in charge of Zuwu first, and Wang Sunqi to assist. There should be no problem in the short term, so let's do this for the time being.

"Why is it over so soon?"

"One more kick!"

The surrounding people were a little resentful, and it seemed that they hadn't seen enough.

Zhao Guangde also breathed a sigh of relief, he was sweating profusely just now~www.wuxiahere.com~ His eyes and heart followed the foot. Once there was a change on the field, he clenched his fist tightly. Staff secretly encouraged. When he was in Wendi, he also lived a life of flying eagles and walking dogs and throwing pots in Liubo, but he didn't expect that there would be such a unique game in the world. Although he looked at it with the humble people, he could have such fun. It was really amazing.

Under the doubts, Zhao Wuqi replied with a smile: "Could you ever hear about the story of Duke Zhuang of Lu Ru Qi Guan Society?"

Zhao Guangde nodded. The Spring and Autumn Society is the festival where the people of the country hold sacrifices, and the Spring Society in Qi State is the best among all summers. At that time, there will be games such as blowing, drumming, building, playing the piano, cockfighting, walking dogs, and six games, which are very lively. Because of this, young men and women from the neighborhood flocked to the place, and after the night fell, they ran together in the field outside the club, and the spring was full of joy.

As the monarch of Lu State, Duke Zhuang of Lu was particularly interested in this foreign country society. Cao Gui, who was "all in one blow" in the Battle of the Long Spoon, repeatedly remonstrated, but he did not listen to him, and even went across the border to Qi State to watch it. .

Zhao Wuxi explained: "The reason for this is that it is not as good as a group of people to be happy alone."

The little fat man pondered this sentence over and over again, thoughtfully.

Wu Xie pointed at the crowd, and said proudly: "Now I am sending people to play Cuju here, and the people of the country will be delighted when they hear the sound of Cuju. The people are happy together.”

"To be honest with my cousin, my ambition is to make the entire Chengyi, the entire Zhao clan, and even the entire Jin Kingdom have fun with me!"
