I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

Now it can be regarded as being ordered in a crisis to bring this Ming Dynasty men's football team.

The reason why we have to come face-to-face is because the enemy that the football team will face this afternoon is not easy.

It is none other than the British Empire Men's Football Team.

In peaceful times, sports is the continuation of politics.

On the eve of the war, sports are a powerful weapon to gather national confidence and strengthen national consciousness. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a more advanced form of mobilization order.

At least the failed art students from Austria proved that this trick is feasible with the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games.

Xiao Gao didn't have such a high political position, so he couldn't think of so many calculations, but he also instinctively realized that the battle between Ming and Ying must not be lost.

Zhu Fugui comforted Xiao Gao and told him to implement everything according to the plan and not to put extra pressure on the boys.

If the men's soccer team loses, they go to the mine to lead the white slaves to dig coal. It's just a joke among the people. Don't take it to heart.

Zhu Fugui didn't know whether his consolation was effective, anyway, Xiao Gao seemed to be more nervous when he left.

What a guy with no sense of humor.

After seeing Xiao Gao off, Zhu Fugui also left for the gymnasium again.

Because today is not only the Mingying focus battle in the afternoon, but also a heavyweight match in the morning.

……

After the 4-to-1 group stage, the teams currently entering the quarter-finals have no big belly...

probably……

They are Daming, England, France, Spain, Russia, Western Chu, Taiping Huaguo, and the Tongliao team.

In terms of composition, the teams from West Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Africa have all been wiped out.

The European countries and Ming forces became the winners of the group stage.

Among them, the qualifying of Western Chu and Taiping Huaguo was within Zhu Fugui's expectation.

Xichu is actually Daming's trumpet.

Several of the contestants were simply the instructors of Da Ming Aid Chu, and the rest were also apprentices brought out by them.

Under the premise that everyone is a non-professional player, playing football in the army has more or less an advantage in execution.

Xichu also has a disadvantage, that is, the team dominated by Hunanese is relatively short in stature.

However, with the opening up of the situation in the Western Regions and Central Asia, I believe that the day when Hunan people can eat mutton rice every day is not far away.

At that time, the height of the new generation of Xichu people may usher in a blowout.

Daming's players come from all corners of the country, and the base is relatively large. Naturally, it is possible to select athletes who are both tall and flexible.

The average height of the Ming men's football team has reached an astonishing 1 meters. Among the participating countries, only the eliminated Ottoman Turkey team has surpassed Ming.

This is because Brother Abdul found a group of slaves from Serbia and Montenegro to play football.

I have to say that these guys are indeed taller.

In other European countries, such as Britain, France, Germany, Sweden, Belgium, and the Netherlands, the average height of athletes is just over 1 meters, and Spain and Italy are only 70 meters.

It's not that there are no big and tall players in their country, but the football population is not as large as Daming, so there are few choices.

Only Osman, no one knows how to play football at all, randomly found a group of people to make up the number, but instead won the title of the tallest.

……

In addition to Xichu, Taipinghuaguo's qualifying is also expected by Zhu Fugui.

After all, they have been trapped in Tianjing City for more than three years, except for the football and related rules sent down by the heavenly father, they have no entertainment.

In South America, the local mixed races also generally like football. The superposition of the two makes the football foundation of the Taiping Hua Kingdom quite good.

They defeated powerful enemies such as the Netherlands and Sweden one after another in the group stage, which greatly shocked the momentum of worshiping God.

Hong Xiuquan, who was far away in Machu Picchu, learned of this, and also published a "Letter to the People of the World".

Hong Xiuquan pointed out.

False religious man: Believe in Catholicism, Lutheranism and other hypocritical beliefs, and he is extremely weak on the green field.

A true religious man: he converts to worshiping God, believes in the Father to gain eternal life, and runs like a tiger on the green grass.

At the same time, Hong Xiuquan also shouted to Pope Pius IX of the Vatican, urging him to abdicate as soon as possible, return the great power, and not stand on the opposite side of believers and the Father, and go against the trend of history.

In short, the Taiping Huaguo, a political power that has been displaced, advanced to the quarter-finals in the Olympic football match, which made all the soldiers and civilians under the thirteen princes happy.

……

Compared with the qualifying of Xichu and Lahua, the qualifying of the Tongliao men's football team really exceeded Zhu Fugui's expectations.

If it is said that Xichu relies on Ming aid to win, and Lahua relies on atmosphere to win, then the Tongliao men's football team relies entirely on luck to win.

First of all, no one in Tongliao, or the entire Horqin Prairie, has ever heard of football, not even Cuju.

From Prince Sotna down, every Mongolian warrior went on an expedition to the North American Baoming lair. Apart from traveling at public expense, the only purpose was to sell goods.

They rented the ocean freighter Asia Express from the Governor's Office of Wa Island and came to Daming.

In addition to a full 72 Mongolian warriors, there is also a large amount of raw seafood... dry.

No way, except for a few royal fishing ships that generate foreign exchange for His Majesty Zhu Fugui, most ocean-going ships do not have refrigeration equipment.

It is too difficult to engage in cold chain transportation these days.

But even if it was just dry goods, Tongliao Khan still gained a lot of money.

He bought all kinds of bright goods and small commodities with these Minghui in Daming, and he can make a lot of money when he returns to Beijing.

So it doesn't matter if you get a medal or not. Lord Suo, like Lord Li Hongzhang, is quite relaxed.

Even until three hours before the first match of the Tongliao men's football team, Lord Suotna didn't know how to play football.

He bought a copy of "Football Beginners to Mastery" for a package of money, then picked a few crouching dragons and phoenix chicks, and went to the referee team to register the list.

Fortunately, their opponents don't know how to play football.

As a dictator like Abdul, Zhu Fugui is also a man of great success.

That's why there was a difficult and long negotiation with the British Empire before, and finally the release of the vassal state to participate in the competition.

This time there are a lot of teams in the football game, otherwise there would be no group 4 to 1, and 8 teams would be able to play in the quarter-finals.

4X8=32, that is to say, a total of 32 countries and regions participated in the Olympic football match.

Its quality can also be imagined.

The Tongliao team's first opponent is one of them who is just pretending to be a number.

Chapter 581

In fact, the Tongliao team themselves are also abusive, but the opponent is a little bit more abusive.

In fact, when he saw who his opponent was, Lord Sotna was like an old and sick cat seeing plague rats. Yui Aragaki got divorced, and she regained her spirits.

Sotna, like Zhu Fugui, went into battle in person, pointed at the opponent's nose and gave Zaan an Allegro.

Because the opposite is none other than the Nepal-Gurkha team.

Generally speaking, the Gurkhas are the descendants who stayed in Nepal during the Mongol conquest.

As a member of the East Asian monster room, they have become representatives of the top combat power in South Asia.

In the twentieth century, they were famous for producing elite mercenaries and Gurkha dogleg knives.

In fact, Gurkha has been a vassal of the Qing Dynasty since Qianlong sent Fukang'an to recover "Houzang", conquered the Himalayas, and came to Kathmandu.

When the British invaded Nepal, they were defeated by the Gurkhas. They handed over the captured British equipment to Beijing for credit.

However, due to the different translations of the name of Britain, when the Gurkhas reported it, the Qing court thought it was just an unknown Indian state in the southern border, and gave a few words of praise, but ignored it.

Later, during the period of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the King of Gurkha wrote to the Qing government, offering to send troops into China to assist the Qing soldiers in suppressing the bandits, but the Qing government still did not respond.

Theoretically speaking, Gurkha did not stop paying tribute to the Qing Dynasty until 1908 because of the obstruction of the British. It can be called the last vassal state of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Since it is a vassal state of my Qing Dynasty, then my Qing God of War, Prince Suo, is naturally full of morale.

If the reality is a game, the Qing Dynasty will definitely have the related mechanism of +100% fighting spirit, +100% training rate, +10% gunpowder shooting, and +200% cavalry charge against vassal states.

What's more, as the Khan of Tongliao and Mongolian orthodox, in Sotna's view, do these Nepalese beggars still want to devour their masters?

Against you!

In the end, under the leadership of Tongliao Khan, the Tongliao men were able to beat the Nepal-Gurkha men's football team 7-2 and won a good start.

At the same time, Tongliao men's football team midfielder Sotna was also sent off with two yellow cards for throwing opponents over the shoulder twice.

And it's not just Sauternes.

Throughout the game, as many as 7 players from the Tongliao team fouled and 4 were sent off.

Three of them continued to beat the opponent's players after the referee whistled, and were suspended for an additional game.

It seems that the Tongliao team is in danger.

However, the second enemy the Tongliao team encountered was...

Antarctic penguin team.

Speaking human words is a bye.

Because there is a white ring Antarctica in the Olympic nine-ring flag, and because in fact, the International Olympic Committee only got 31 teams after patchwork, so the addition of a penguin team is considered an easter egg.

The Tongliao team, which had won both games, was in full swing. In the third game, they defeated the Persian Khajar Dynasty team 1-0, realizing Mongolia's Nth conquest of Persia.

So far, Tongliao Khan led his loyal Tongliao sports team, not only won the bronze medal in polo, but also made great strides in football, entering the quarterfinals.

But obviously, they might stop at the quarterfinals.

Zhu Fugui looked at the list. Except for Tongliao, there were no more fish belly to fry.

In fact, people's eyes are not on this group of Mongolians.

All eyes are on today's two quarter-finals.

Even the Mingying focus match in the afternoon was not as exciting as the match in the morning.

Because the match against the two sides in the morning is the French team and the German team.

Zhu Fugui booked the box with the best view early in the morning, and invited his old friend Abdul and his mysterious new friend to watch the game together while drinking fermented grape juice.

The man who wore a thick trench coat with a stand-up collar and a top hat on hot days, hiding his face in the shadows, was of course William I who had been waiting for a long time.

William arrived in Xinhu two days ago.

Because he is already 73 years old, if the Three Emperors Meeting is not really important, his age is really not suitable for long-distance travel.

After all, not everyone has the stature and spirit of Li Hongzhang.

Fortunately, Brother William, who finally lived to be 91 years old, is not in bad health.

After a full rest, and the nutritional supplements personally delivered by Zhu Fugui—pork floss and malted milk extract—Brother William finally regained his energy.

Like many old men in this era, although William does not play football himself, he also likes to watch football.

Today he took the risk of being exposed and personally came to the VIP box of the stadium to watch the life-and-death battle between Germany and France.

What is the significance of this game, naturally needless to say.

When the score on the field reached 3-0, France 3, and Germany 0, Zhu Fugui secretly took a look at Brother William, and then silently bought a bottle of nitroglycerin in the system.

Fortunately, my brother was still strong. Until the moment the whistle blew, William just smashed the ashtray at hand, and did not make any further excessive actions.

Zhu Fugui whispered to his soldiers that the German emperor smashed a glass roller shutter and priced it at 3000 gold marks, remember to enter it into the account.

Then he stepped forward and comforted in pure Prussian German: "My old man, I think victory should belong to Germany. Those cowardly and despicable Frenchmen just keep turning their feet and don't understand the collision of muscles at all! A real man should be like You Germans are just as men!"

Abdul also comforted him again and again, but the comfort was comforting, but the corner of his mouth kept smiling, without stopping for a moment.

After all, the local chicken team has not won a gold medal, not even a bronze medal, and it is still a three-egg roll.

Even the all-member stupid big men's football lineup was brutally abused by the Spaniards.

But I don't know why, seeing the friendly army being beaten, the Turkey Sultan unconsciously became happy.

Under the persuasion of Zhu Fugui and Abdul, the crouching dragon and phoenix chicks, Brother William's face finally changed from gray-black to sauce-red. Finally, under the advice of a well-trained Prussian doctor, Bloodletting was performed.
