On the second day of the new year, Ren Ning was pulled up by Lei Er early in the morning.

"Old Ren, wake up from hunger." He stuffed some delicious food over him, "Many people are waiting for you to be the referee."

"Do you think I am you?" Ren Ning couldn't help but come out to take a look.

"Hello, Captain!"

"Good luck growing up!"

There were two groups of soldiers waiting eagerly outside the door. They greeted him affectionately when they saw him.

No way, no one except him knows the rules of football accurately now.

"You have been running all day yesterday, and you are ready to leave today?" Ren Ning said with a smile.

"It must be done." Lei Erzheng found something interesting and slapped his palms without hesitation: "We are not those young men in the imperial capital who hang out in Hualiu Lane all day long! If you can't move on the battlefield, you will die, so what's the use of a mere football field? That’s right.”

"That's right." Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Then let's go." Ren Ning had no choice but to risk his life to accompany the gentleman.

More than half an hour later, it was the time for morning training in the past, and the football field was densely packed with people.

Ren Ning made a rough calculation and found that there were no less than five thousand people, and each one of them was looking at them curiously with their necks stretched out.

Lei Er happened to receive a pass from his brother and frantically dribbled the ball into the opponent's penalty area.

Buzz~

The surrounding spectators couldn't help but take a few steps forward, staring blankly at Lei Er, who was running straight towards the goal like a mad lion.

The soldiers in the fifth battalion who knew the rules couldn't hold back anymore and screamed.

Whizzing!

Cleverly bypassing two defenders, Lei Er raised his leg and volleyed hard.

call!

The football and the shoes go straight to the goal together.

Everyone's hearts suddenly rose to their throats.

The goalkeeper rushed over, but it was too late. He could only watch the football fly past him and back.

The goal only has a frame and no net inside.

boom!

The ball passed through the goal and shot towards the spectators behind! It hit a soldier directly and bounced back.

Beep!

Ren Ning blew the whistle.

The ball went in!

Ha ha!

Most of the soldiers around were seeing a goal for the first time and were a little confused. He didn't react until he saw Lei Er and his teammates cheering and hugging each other.

"Rai Er! Rai Er!"

A bunch of soldiers from the fifth battalion instantly became fans of Lei Er, screaming his name heartbreakingly.

Other newcomers also sensed the happiness around them. They were all excited and itchy, and they quickly asked each other how to play.

During the intermission, Ren Ning was drinking water.

Suddenly a soldier came over and said, "Captain Ren, the general is looking for you."

Ren Ning was startled, quickly told Lei Er and others, and followed the soldiers away.

There is only one person in the Starfall Legion who can be called a general. That is the army general: Wei Junqian.

"My subordinate Ren Ning has met the General! In the new year, I wish the Xingluo Army better and better. General Longma will be in good spirits, good health, everything goes well, and he will be promoted step by step..."

Wei Junqian was also on the sidelines watching the party.

He is in his forties, about the same age as Zhongyong Bo Xiaozheng. One has no military power, while the other holds the most elite legion in the empire. Although the two people are obviously the same age, their temperaments look very different.

Looking up and down Ren Ning with interest, Wei Junqian waved his hand calmly.

"Okay. Everyone is on annual leave, so don't be so formal. I've heard about your reputation as Ren Ning for a long time, and when I saw you today, you turned out to be a smart kid."

"I heard that you were responsible for this football match?" he asked.

"Thank you for the compliment, General!" Ren Ning scratched his head.

"In addition to training in the camp, everyone usually competes in the ring or gathers to gamble. My subordinates just wanted to find something for them to do, and they did it accidentally. I hope it won't stain the general's eyes."

Wei Junqian laughed and said, "You don't have to be modest. I think this is a good event."

He is in charge of the entire legion. In addition to analyzing the situation inside and outside the empire, he also studies future battlefield offensives. The lives of the soldiers are managed by the people below, so there is no need to do everything personally.

Although Wei Junqian has an extraordinary family background, he was originally a soldier. It's okay if there's a war, but if there's no war, training in the camp day after day, he also knows the feeling of boredom and boredom.

At this time, Wei Junqian could tell at a glance that there were only eleven people in the football field.

But the entire team has both forwards and defenders. Everyone needs to not only perform their duties but also work closely together to win a game. It's almost like a real battlefield.

The most important thing is that it can train the physical fitness of the soldiers and the organizational cooperation between them. It truly combines training with play and education with competition.

This is what Wei Junqian is most satisfied with and interested in.

"After training, you can organize more games for everyone. It is best to have a complete event cycle. Just ask for anything you need, and the army can also provide rewards. This saves them from gambling all day long and making each battalion a mess." He said.

"Ren Ning understands. Make a plan as soon as possible after returning so that everyone can better integrate into this football activity."

A smart person can tell the truth. Wei Junqian was very satisfied.

He was a little confused: "Why can't you use your hands? Sometimes when I see them unable to control the ball with their feet, I get worried for them."

"This is called football, so my subordinates stipulate that it can only be played with feet."

Ren Ning made a little joke before opening his mouth to explain.

"Human hands are more flexible than feet. We usually train mostly hands, and feet are usually only used for riding horses or traveling. I feel that if everyone's feet can be as flexible as hands, it will definitely be beneficial to future wars. So I simply just The rule is to use your feet.”

He paused: "If the general needs a ball to play with his hands, my subordinates can also change the rules and come up with a different version of 'football'."

Isn't it just football?

Although Ren Ning doesn't understand it very well, no one in this world understands it, so just make up the rules casually.

"Train your feet..." Wei Junqian stroked his beard thoughtfully, "Your idea is unexpected, but it is reasonable. In this case, just continue playing football. Don't worry about handball."

Wei Junqian asked about some football rules with interest, and asked Ren Ning to report any good ideas directly to the Chinese army camp before letting him go back to continue coaching football games.

As soon as they returned to the resting point, Lei Er and an aggrieved Xiao Gang came up to them.

"Old Ren, have you seen the general?" Lei Er clicked his tongue.

He was Guan Luping's personal guard. He had gone to the Chinese Army with his forward general before, so he had met Wei Junqian. But Wei Junqian may not know who Lei Er is.

"Brother Ren, what does the general look like?" Xiao Gang wanted to gossip more and asked sourly: "Is he as handsome as my father?"

In the past, when he was in the imperial capital, Xiao Gang was known as a prodigal son, and he was naturally very handsome. And his father Xiao Zheng cannot give in too much, he is a leader in the Mesozoic era.

Xiao Gang knew that his father and Wei Junqian were not comparable in terms of strength, so they could only compare in appearance.

"Even if a man grows into a flower, what's the use?" Lei Er threw a few broad beans into his mouth with a look of contempt on his face.

"A man should be as powerful as a general or as smart as Lao Ren. Of course, he should be as skilled as Lei Er. Do you understand?"

It was okay at first, but Xiao Gang was speechless later.

"Show some shame, you have some shitty skills."

cough!

Lei Er coughed triumphantly, "I just tore through your heavy defenders and scored a goal."

Xiao Gang seemed to have been hit hard. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it just a ball? See you on the field."

"Wait a minute." Ren Ning coughed and interrupted them.

"The general feels that this football has great potential and plans to promote it throughout the army. There will be rewards at that time. And if you look at the enthusiasm around you, there will definitely be a lot of people participating."

"When there is a game, there is gambling. As the saying goes, no matter who loses or wins, we as the banker will never lose money."

"Aren't you short of money? While playing well, you should also think more about the rules. You can be a referee in the future."

Xiao Gang was very interested when he heard it, and soon he frowned again.

"There are a lot of venues in the camp, and it won't be a problem to open a dozen more courts. But we don't have many balls in our hands."

Ren Ning nodded, "So I'm going to Nanshu City tomorrow."
