Chapter 918: The Concept of the Football League
918. The idea of a soccer league
Li Shimin waved his hand, no jokes, touched the football with a pondering face and said: "Polo gallops back and forth, fast as the wind, swinging and hitting the ball, like killing the enemy with a knife and gun, not only can you practice riding and fighting skills, but also strengthen your physique, improve the team's coordination ability, and vigorously promote it in the army." This ornamental is secondary, but polo has very good requirements for horses, and non-horses cannot be used, but unfortunately ordinary people can't play it."
Li Pojun smiled when he heard this, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and seemed to feel that this was not enough to be serious, so he withdrew his hand and smiled, nodded and said: "Aya said it comprehensively, the benefits of polo are obvious to all, so the court will respect him, but the limitations of polo are also not small, you can't play without a horse, and the danger is still great, it will hurt your face at the lightest, and it will break your muscles and bones at the worst." But this football is different, Aya also saw that although football can not exercise the skills of riding and fighting, but it can also strengthen the body and cultivate the ability to cooperate, and only need a ball, a spacious field, just a goal, you can play, it is really a good and inexpensive, rich and poor sports."
Li Pojun's eyebrows fluttered and he said the benefits of football, Li Shimin and his ministers also nodded when they listened, and when Li Pojun said that, the eldest grandson Wuji's fat round face was curious, and he asked directly: "Sports?" What does sport mean? ”
Li Pojun's face froze when he heard this, scratched his head and thought about it, and said seriously: "Sports, simply put, is an educational activity with the main task of developing physical strength and enhancing physical fitness, which can be achieved through various activities, such as polo, juju, pitching, sumo, including arching horses, and martial arts can be regarded as sports."
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji was thoughtful, looked at Li Shimin, and said bluntly: "This sport is similar to the martial arts style of our dynasty."
Li Pojun hurriedly nodded when he heard this, and said bluntly: "That's it, if the people are weak, the country is weak, and if the people are strong, the country is strong." Just imagine, if all the people of my Tang Dynasty can learn bow horses and have a strong physique, why worry about not being able to destroy the four razors and level the world, when the horse's hooves step out, they are all Datang, it is not possible. If my Tang Dynasty is all delicate people, I can't read hard, and I can't fight on horses, what hope does such a country have. Therefore, the martial style cannot be lost, and the Tang Dynasty man cannot be less bloody."
Li Pojun said solemnly with a solemn face, bloodiness is a very mysterious thing, from the literal interpretation is loyalty, sincerity, strength and righteousness, there seems to be some chivalrous meaning of a chivalrous ranger, but once the majority of men lose their blood, it will be very terrible, and the sense of national honor and disgrace will also be zombies, and it will become the money green hat who is too cold to be too cold, and it will become Zhang Hongfan, who destroyed the Song Dynasty, and Chairman Wang, who saved the country.
Li Shimin and the others were also surprised when they looked at Li Pojun clenching his fists with a solemn expression, and then thought about Li Pojun's words and deeply agreed, but seeing that the prince was so martial, Fang Xuanling also frowned slightly, and said bluntly: "Martial arts cannot be lost, but they cannot be highly admired, as the old saying goes: Although the country is big, it will die if it is warlike." ”
Li Pojun raised his eyebrows, "Uncle Fang's words about seeking the country are right. However, there is also a saying: Although the world is safe, forgetting the war will be dangerous. Isn't the gentleman's six arts also shooting and royal, when there was a chaotic war in the past, didn't Uncle Fang also carry a three-foot sword and a thief with a blade. But now, the world has been stable for only a few years, the four provinces have not been destroyed, and the heart of the Central Plains is not dead, but how many people have put down their swords and guns, and many scholars are actually embroidered with flowers and birds, and their faces are painted with rouge, and they think that the woman's posture is beautiful, and the stout and strong are vulgar, which is really ridiculous."
Listening to Li Pojun's words, everyone is also silent, this phenomenon is very common, all dynasties are like this, once the world is stable, there will be flashy extravagance rise, after the unification of the Three Kingdoms, Wei and Jin are such an atmosphere, it is good to say that it is called Wei and Jin Feng Gu, what is not good is directly arrogant and lascivious, men take women's clothes as beautiful, eat five stones, open chest and expose breasts, singing loudly and thinking that it is elegant and wanton, in fact, it is "businesswomen do not know the hatred of the country, and they still sing the backyard flowers across the river".
Li Pojun looks down on these people the most, if you are bold and elegant, drink a pot of spirits, carry a three-foot sword, and get on the horse to kill Hu'er, this is the heroism of a man, you are wearing a woman's clothes, holding a flower and bird fan in your hand, and sucking five stones in your mouth, what kind of Wei and Jin demeanor are you pretending.
The true celebrity is not stuck in things, and the handsome and free are deduced in this way, Li Pojun is also spitting on him, the turbulent era of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and in Li Pojun's view, this so-called Wei and Jin style is a self-depraved atmosphere, of course, excluding the aspect of literary attainment.
Li Shimin waved his hand, didn't think so much, and said directly: "Let's not talk about this first, what do you think about this football?" Are you trying to promote it? ”
"Yes, such a good sport must be promoted, it's much better than those gambling prostitutes." Li Pojun said excitedly.
Li Shimin didn't speak, and looked at Li Pojun with a strange face, this kid is so positive, there must be benefits, and he immediately asked tentatively: "How do you plan to promote?" ”
Li Pojun listened to what he was saying, and suddenly paused, and said bluntly: "This is not simple, a few of them have learned football, and they will definitely play when they go home, and then drive the neighbors, and finally Aya will praise it again, and football will definitely be popular all over the country."
Li Shimin's eyes narrowed, this kid was not honest, and immediately glared and shouted: "Tell the truth."
Li Pojun was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and said: "Son, this is the truth, it has been put into practice, and they have gone home to build the stadium."
Fang Xuanling Du Ruyan's face trembled when he heard this, this promotion of football will also harm his own mansion, and he has to watch it quickly when he goes back later, otherwise the loser will have to demolish his home.
Li Shimin was unmoved when he heard this, and continued to look at Li Pojun, "There is no benefit, you will be so positive?" ”
Li Pojun's face was stunned, and he shouted and proclaimed, am I such a person in my father's heart, I am dedicated to the country and the people.
When even he looked at Li Shimin with a sad face, and was about to speak, he suddenly saw Li Shimin's face that seemed to be sneering, Li Pojun was sweating profusely, and he was busy sitting upright and said: "Actually, it's not a good thing, it's just that the child wants to build a gymnasium when promoting, which is a standard stadium, and then organize a football league, hold a Datang Cup or something, and collect some tickets by the way to make a fortune."
Li Shimin stroked his forehead with his hand, and sure enough, this kid was thinking about money. looked at the eldest grandson Fang Du who bowed his head and was silent, and Li Shimin was ashamed.
Seeing Li Pojun's excited and wise appearance, Li Shimin couldn't help but strike: "Do you think it can really be promoted smoothly according to your ideas?" I'm afraid I'm thinking too much."
