590 The Sudden Arrival
As soon as the results came out, the people of the Wolves Camp immediately cheered loudly, and those who had placed their bets on the Wolves also celebrated loudly.
After the game, the two teams lined up neatly in front of the stands where Li Longji was, waiting for Li Longji's comments.
Li Longji didn't speak, and Gao Lishi sang loudly: "The emperor has a decree, the courage of the Flying Tigers is commendable, three sheep are rewarded, ten altars of imperial wine, and ten thousand money; The Wolves performed well, rewarding ten sheep, 30 jars of wine, and millions of dollars. ”
"Thank you, Lord Long."
The players present did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee to thank him.
After everyone stood up, Gao Lishi continued: "The thousand horsemen of the Fierce Wolf Battalion sent Li Xiancheng to receive the order. ”
"The last general" Li Xiancheng's face turned pale, took a step forward, and knelt down on one knee in response.
"Li Qianqi made three yuan in the competition, which is gratifying, the emperor has a decree, a brocade robe and a good horse."
"Thank you, Lord Long."
The brocade robe is a new set of green polo uniforms, green scarves, green robes, and a pair of green boots, the brocade robe is embroidered with gold silk with a lifelike wolf, and there are auspicious cloud dark patterns, cloud water patterns as decorations, very elegant.
After Li Xiancheng thanked him, he put on a scarf and brocade robe that represented honor and favor on the spot, rode on a tall horse, and left the arena in high spirits.
When leaving, he deliberately passed in front of Zheng Peng, stayed for a while, looked at Zheng Peng with provocative eyes, and then rode away with his nostrils facing the sky.
That arrogant appearance is comparable to Landuo.
"It's really good, if only I were like him." Lu Jin said with some envy.
Zheng Peng covered his mouth and smiled, patted Lu Jin's shoulder and said, "It's a little windy, but it's not a good thing, hahaha." ”
For some reason, as soon as he saw Li Xiancheng wearing a cuckold, Zheng Peng had the urge to laugh.
The first game was over, and soon, the second game started immediately, with the winged wolf battalion of Zuo Fei riding against the Golden Tiger battalion of Zuo Wanqi.
Compared with the first game, the second game seemed more intense and less exciting, in Zheng Peng's words, he played happily, played lively, and then ended with a harmonious end.
The score was good, eight to seven, only one goal difference, and the Golden Tiger Battalion advanced to the next round.
After the first day of the competition, Yi Biao, the thousand horsemen of the Golden Tiger Camp, who won the reward, invited him to the Golden Tiger Camp to enjoy the roasted whole sheep, but Zheng Peng politely refused on the grounds of camp defense, because after watching it, he needed to review with the players.
Why goals are scored, why goals are conceded, where things are done well, where they are not enough, where the winning team is superior, all these should be discussed, and then think about how to deal with it if the people on the field are replaced by themselves.
After the review, the players had a lot of understanding of Zheng Peng's tactics.
Li Longji came to the scene on the first day to see it, but the next day he didn't see anyone, and the special seat belonging to him was empty, I heard that it was Tang Kuan, the town guard of Khotan Town in the Western Regions, who went to Chang'an to report on his work, and the Western Regions were a little chaotic recently, and he gave priority to receiving the guards of the Western Regions.
The Camp Tigers polo team played in the fifth game, starting on the third matchday.
When he was about to enter the polo field, Zheng Peng looked back and saw Wu Hao, Huang Bo, Zhao Jingyu and others, riding on horses one by one with their faces strained, and their movements were a little stiff because of nervousness.
"What are you doing, haven't you eaten? All give me a little bit of spirit. Zheng Peng said angrily.
The team members barely puffed up their chests, but they still looked uncomfortable.
Zheng Peng glanced at everyone: "What, scared?" Afraid of being ridiculed if you lose? ”
Wu Hao said with some hesitation: "No, we used to play games and lose a lot, and we were a little numb with ridicule, dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water, what else is there to be afraid of, that is...
"I'm just afraid of losing, I'm tired of losing money, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'll take revenge on you, right?"
Wu Hao secretly glanced at Zheng Peng and whispered, "... Right. ”
If you lose, there is no reward, it's okay; was ridiculed and punished, and also admitted, the problem is that Zheng Peng made a bet of 10,000 taels of gold at the record of joining the army Wang Jinhai, 10,000 taels of gold, Wu Hao thought that he couldn't earn so much money in ten lifetimes, and he was tired of losing Zheng Peng lost so much money, and the psychological pressure of the team members can be imagined.
Zheng Peng waved his hand and said with a relaxed face: "What do you think, take it easy, win, there are many rewards, if you lose, you should practice, don't worry, just 10,000 taels is nothing, let me tell you, when my lady enters the door, the bride price is millions, all leisurely." ”
"Thousand horsemen, we're just afraid..."
"How can there be so much fear" Zheng Peng interrupted him: "The front is afraid of tigers, and the back is afraid of wolves, what is the matter, in a word, if you want to do a good job, you can play well, implement the tactics in place, and pay attention to cooperate, I said, polo is a game of twelve people, it is twelve people, not one person, the group is more important than the individual." ”
Speaking of this, Zheng Peng said earnestly: "The game is not at the last moment, anything can happen, it is two shoulders and one head, who is afraid of whom, in a word, as long as you do your best, no matter what the final result is, I will not blame you, understand?" ”
"Understood." Everyone responded in unison.
"I didn't hear you, louder!" Zheng Peng shouted loudly.
The team members shouted, "Understood! ”
Seeing that the mental outlook of the team members had changed and the people were much more relaxed, Zheng Peng nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand: "Let's go, warm up." ”
Under the leadership of Zheng Peng, the members of the Tiger Camp Polo Team entered the field with high morale.
After entering the polo field, it was found that the people of the Fire Wolf Camp were already training.
"Wow, a lot of people."
"Oh my God, it's full all around."
"You see, there are women in the west stand, and the ladies are also watching the game."
"Not only that, there are people all around, even in the trees."
When the players were discussing, Zheng Peng looked at it and was secretly surprised: there were too many people, I remember that on the first day, there were more than 1,000 spectators, and on the second day, there were even fewer people, only a few hundred, and now there are as many as 3,000 people in the polo field.
Compared with the event of tens of thousands of people in later generations, more than 3,000 people are nothing, and it can't even be compared with Li Longji holding a large-scale concert, but considering that this is a private entertainment and high-security competition, it can be regarded as a very grand competition.
To put it simply, this is a forbidden place in the palace, not to mention watching the game, it is good to be able to come in, and so many people are sitting at once, which is enough to see the importance that people attach to this game.
Nine times out of ten, the news of the gambling game has been spread, and they are all coming to see the excitement.
"Yo, isn't this Zheng Qian's horseman, he came on time." Wei Chao was directing his subordinates to warm up, and when he saw Zheng Peng coming, he smiled and drove forward to say hello.
"It's not as early as Wei Qian's cavalry" Zheng Peng looked at the players who were seriously warming up on the field, and said jokingly: "Come here so early to familiarize yourself with the venue, it seems that Wei Qiancai's envoy is determined to win this game." ”
Wei Chao said with a knowing face: "Zheng Qianqi, as long as it is a competition, I will definitely go all out, if there is anything offended, please drink after the game to make amends." ”
Zheng Peng is an upstart in Chang'an, Wei Chao is not easy to offend, and he is afraid that Zheng Peng will open his mouth to let his subordinates show mercy and seal Zheng Peng's mouth in advance.
Wang Jinhai has "warned" himself in disguise, and everyone knows that the dealer behind the scenes is King Qi, and he has given enough benefits in advance, maybe the emperor will come to the scene to watch the battle, and he will do his best to say anything.
"It should be so" Zheng Peng said without changing his face: "Wei Qian's cavalry, I will also let the team members do their best, if there is anything offended, Wei Qian's cavalry envoy should not be surprised." ”
Do your best?
Wei Chao almost wanted to laugh when he saw Zheng Peng's serious appearance, in the face of strength and talent, the so-called doing his best is also a joke, just like eggs and stones, no matter how hard the egg is, it is also the fate of being crushed when it hits the stone.
Typical is earth-shattering to say, but powerless to do.
"Meet the Emperor"
There was a sudden movement in front, Zheng Peng turned his head to look, and when he turned his head, he saw the emperor's special canopy, and then a kneeling crowd, Li Longji came.
After Zheng Peng finished saluting, he continued to let the team members warm up and practice their state first.
When he was still telling him to take precautions, a royal guard suddenly came over, saluted Zheng Peng, and said respectfully: "The imperial guard Li Xiang has seen General Zheng. ”
"No courtesy, I don't know what happened when Li Zhiwei looked for me?"
"The emperor ordered you to go and accompany the wine."
"Accompany the wine?" Zheng Peng said with some surprise.
"Yes, the emperor also said that the general has an old man here, let the general go and get together."
Old friend?
Zheng Peng's heart moved, turned his head to explain a few words to Wu Hao, and then followed Li Xiang towards the east stand.
