Chapter Seventy-Three: On Yourself (Part 1)
"It's good to get used to it slowly......"
Zhang Han originally wanted to comfort the two elementary school brothers, but now it seems that there is no need for it.
These two guys, although they haven't adapted to the training rhythm of the first team of the Qingdao High School baseball team. But they are very talented and mentally excellent.
Although they felt the difficulty, they were not depressed, in this case, what else could Zhang Han say?
Furthermore, as long as the players enter the first army, there is no so-called distinction between seniors and juniors.
Zhang Han and Yu Xing, when they first joined the First Army, were the most important combat forces of the team. To put it bluntly, it is precisely because of the addition of the two of them that the strength of the Qingdao High School baseball team has been further enhanced.
In turn, he helped Seido defeat two rivals and successfully entered Koshien.
If you want to say that the two of them are all responsible for getting into Koshien, you must be exaggerating.
But without the two of them, judging from the situation of the Seido High School baseball team at the time, the hope that they would eventually be able to make it to Koshien is probably very slim.
The three battles of the city university, the battle of Daocheng industry......
In those two games, the Qingdao High School baseball team did not have any advantage, and if there was a slight deviation, I am afraid it would be a defeat.
Plus Chris was still injured at the time.
To put it bluntly, before the final results came out, even the players of the Seido High School baseball team themselves were not very sure.
But even in that case, Zhang Han and Yu Xing didn't get much attention from the seniors at first.
Everyone is busy and only works together during the game.
After entering the first army, training, getting along in private, and competition have basically separated.
Teammates who cooperate tacitly on the court must practice together in training, but they don't necessarily have deep contacts in private.
Zhang Han's situation is better.
Because of his special status, he usually speaks and acts humbly, and many seniors like him very much.
But at most, when there is any activity, call Zhang Han together, and usually do not exclude Zhang Han by his side when he speaks.
That's pretty good already.
At least compared to another person, Zhang Han was much luckier to enter the first army with Zhang Han.
In addition to a practice and competition, the seniors are usually very unhappy to take care of Yuyu. This guy has a damaged mouth and a black belly, so he is really not a good candidate for friends.
When did their relationship start to become close?
Basically, one went through the pre-summer training camp, and then the other went through the summer tournament and Koshien competition.
One has endured hardships, one has shed tears, and one has fought for the team......
This kind of friendship has gradually accumulated.
Zhang Han and Yu Xing, relying on their own efforts, won the recognition of all seniors. Until that time, the relationship between them was not just teammates, but also close friends.
So much so that when they left in the Eastern Qing Kingdom, a group of big men cried a lot.
This is mainly because they are very clear. With the graduation of the third-grade seniors, I am afraid that there will be very few opportunities for them to meet and get along in the future.
What Xiaohe and Jingu Temple have experienced now is actually the period they experienced before Zhang Han.
Although Zhang Han really wanted to help the junior students, he knew better in his heart that this kind of thing could only rely on themselves.
If they want to earn the respect of their teammates, they have to sweat enough and perform accordingly.
"Look at the two little ones pitiful?"
Yu Xing followed to Zhang Han and asked with a smile.
As soon as he saw the smile on his face, Zhang Han felt that this guy must not have held back any good words in his mouth.
If you want to talk about mocking people, this guy says that he is second in the entire Qingdao High School baseball team, and no one dares to say that he is first.
"I just remembered us last year!"
The expression on Zhang Han's face was a bit reminiscing.
In fact, this is not the first time he has been a senior, as early as when he was in middle school, he had already brought a lot of junior students.
But at that time, Zhang Han didn't feel this way.
Maybe in addition to his relationship with Ono Binzhi, Zhang Han didn't put so much energy and feelings into Songfang......
At that time, Zhang Han did not have the idea of making baseball a career. Now although Zhang Han will not beat his chest and guarantee the ticket, he must enter the professional baseball.
But it is undeniable that such thoughts have begun to sprout in his heart.
If all goes well, when he graduates from high school, he should also follow in the footsteps of Dongqingguo seniors and participate in the draft.
Because of this idea in his heart, coupled with the changes in his relationship with his teammates, Zhang Han's current approach to many things is completely different from his original habits.
This sentence also touched Yu Xing, so much so that he didn't say what he wanted to tease Zhang Han.
"Don't pity them, you must know that they are the object of envy among newcomers, just like us last year."
Zhang Han and Yu Xing, when they first joined the First Army, they also suffered a lot in order to keep up with the team's training rhythm.
Sometimes the training intensity is relatively high, and by the time the training is over, both of them are as tired as dogs.
I don't want to say a word, it's also embarrassing.
But in the eyes of the other contestants in the same class, no one laughed at them.
Looking at their gaze, it is like looking at their own goals and idols.
Those who can come to Qingdao High School baseball can choose to join the Qingdao High School baseball team. Who wouldn't want to be appreciated by the supervisors and coaches one day, make it to the first team, wear the jersey of the Seongdo High School baseball team, and fight for the team?
From this point of view, whether it is Zhang Han and Yu Xing last year. Or the current Tsukitani Xiao and Jingu Temple, they are all very lucky.
A few days before the Golden Week, the team's training rhythm slowed down suddenly.
The overseers and coaches, with great mercy, did not drain the last bit of physical strength in their bodies as before.
Zhang Han and Yu Xing, who have already experienced it once, know very well in their hearts that the next team is preparing for the expedition.
Riding on a bus expedition may sound very comfortable, but it's actually very tiring.
The car itself is tiring, and after getting off the bus, you have to compete with strong teams.
This fatigue is to be doubled.
And the expedition is different from waiting for other strong teams to challenge in your own school. There is also a question of face involved, and many games can only be won and not lost.
The coaches of the supervision and coaching staff, in order to let the players have a full state, relaxed the pressure on the players.
For the two first-graders, this is a pie-in-the-sky thing.
Their bodies are highly tense and extremely tired, and they can finally take this opportunity to rest.
Seeing the two lying in the corner like dead dogs, Kuramori smiled.
"I wonder what will become of them when they camp together?"
The normal training rhythm is more than four hours a day. If this is all tired like this.
Once it's really time for the training camp, I'm afraid the two won't be able to hold on at all.
"That's their own business! If you can hold on, you will stay in the first army, and if you can't hold on, you will be driven out of the first army. In the second and third armies, there are at least two platoons of players waiting to replace them. ”
Izaki Jun grinned and said dissatisfied.
These two guys, who have just joined the First Army, are inevitably too unfortunate.
Especially compared with last year's Zhang Han and Yu Xing, the gap looks very big.
