After Li Hao calmed down Mrs. Wei, he stopped taking care of family affairs and left all the affairs to Mr. Wei to handle, while he concentrated on the competition.
As for the polo match, it is based on the ranking of five battalion commanders, five battalion deputy commanders, five battalion commanders, and nine commanders.
So in the second half of the process, the general ranking pattern has almost come out.
After the last nine people showed up first, basically among the remaining people, except for the top three who could still compete for the first place and were preparing to fight head-on, the rest were somewhat relaxed, and it was more like playing an exhibition match.
Among these people, Yuan Wenshao was only in the top six, ranking seventh, eighth, or ninth.
However, Yang Wenyuan successfully entered the top three and is now training hard to win the championship in one fell swoop. However, the teams that can reach the top three are not weak, and it is still unclear who will win and who will lose.
However, according to the competition system, the important matches of polo and Cuju will be held later, so they still have a period of training.
Compared with the quiet period of the polo match, the Cuju match attracted a lot of attention at this time.
Because it is different from today's purely technical display method, the Cuju rules have been improved and combined with the styles of the Han and Tang Dynasties and modern football rules.
Especially after Gu Tingye's strong suggestion, more confrontation was added, and players were even allowed to fight directly on the field. After watching several games, Li Hao felt that these people were fighting on the field more than playing football.
But it was this violent collision but safer sport than polo that suddenly satisfied the violent tendencies of the Lord's children and made Li Hao feel that Cuju competition could be more popular than polo in the future. But the only problem is that there is These guys played too dirty.
However, Li Hao is still a little relieved to see this. After all, compared to the men's football team of later generations, Li Hao originally thought that these second-generation ancestors might not be able to endure much hardship, but now it seems that at least they dare to fight and fight hard. The men's football team can't compare.
Thinking about the later generations of men's football teams who were unwilling to even run on the field, and looking at the noble children present, Li Hao didn't want to say anything.
However, he was relieved to feel relieved. Li Hao re-summarized the league. From the looks of it, Li Hao was still not satisfied after all.
Because this league can only barely achieve its goal, because some dudes from the honorable family came to participate in the game, and other people dare not show their faces for the time being because of their withdrawal, so the security of the entire Bianjing has indeed improved. Quite a few.
As for advocating martial arts, looking at the collisions and fights that broke out from time to time on the field, I think it should be regarded as advocating it. However, looking at the fights with some grudges on the field, it seems that the trend has gone a little off.
But in fact, because of the emperor's temporary whim, he could only limit the candidates to the nobles.
And in the end, only a small number of people came to participate, so Li Hao's original intention of promoting the competition on a large scale could not be realized, and he could only hope for next time.
Just when Li Hao was summing up his experience and lessons, Gu Tingye went to Li Hao and told him the news: "I went to the camp today and heard from Xu Ning that all the noble families were arranging for their generals to join the imperial camp as auxiliary soldiers. Let me inform you and see what to do."
After hearing this, Li Hao first recalled the contents of the military code of this dynasty that he had read these days.
I know that it is like an auxiliary army. According to the system, as the imperial camp army of the Imperial Guard in front of the palace, you can take an auxiliary army of 500 people with you to transport food, grass and equipment. Transferred from the army.
So he asked: "As for the auxiliary troops, how many people have they deployed? And as far as I know, aren't the auxiliary troops drawn from the Xiang army? Is there anything wrong with their operation?"
Gu Tingye said: "I have asked someone about this, and he said that as long as the number of people does not exceed 500, it will be fine.
Moreover, when members of various noble sects come out, the officials will only be happy if they know it. After all, it is difficult for people to go back if they come out. "
After hearing this, Li Hao immediately understood that each of these noble families would take some old soldiers for their own use. I am afraid that the officials had already planned to cut them off. Now that the nobles hand over some of their own soldiers, the officials will not blame them.
As for the person Gu Tingye asked, it should be Gu Yankai. After all, he was a man who had made many meritorious deeds on the border for many years. Although his emotional intelligence was not high, he guessed that the official's thoughts were okay and he could be trusted.
Moreover, the generals of the nobles are much stronger than the Xiang army. In comparison, the 500 generals may be able to fight better than the 2,500 men under their own command, and they will be safer to carry around.
After all, even if it is an armed march, if something happens accidentally, it will always be different if you have a group of people who can fight.
So he said: "I will report this matter to the officials. If the officials agree, it will be no problem. Otherwise, we still have to follow the officials' wishes.
In addition, if they are really inserted, you have to ensure that they can obey orders when the time comes, otherwise I don't want to go south with a group of hidden dangers. "
After hearing this, Gu Tingye nodded in agreement, and then said: "I will discuss it with people. As long as I come in, I will definitely make people obey."
Li Hao didn't say anything after hearing this, but asked Gu Tingye to do it directly.
Later, Li Hao asked Ouyang Xiu to ask the officials about the matter. After learning that the officials agreed, Li Hao notified Gu Tingye and asked him to take care of the person.
At the same time, as time slowly passes, the finals of polo and Cuju are finally coming.
It happened that the opponents in the two games were different. The last two families left in the Cuju game were Zhou Wu from the Xiongwu family and Li Yixing from the Weining family. The last two families left in the polo game were Yang Wenyuan from the Lingguo family and Hu from the Dongchuan Hou family. ocean.
So after discussion between Li Hao and Gu Tingye, they arranged for the last games of polo and Cuju to be played in the morning of the same day.
The Cuju finals will be held first, and then the Polo finals will be held. When the winner of each game comes out, his or her name will be quickly sent to the palace.
As for the palace, it had been agreed in advance that as soon as the name arrived, the medal would be engraved and sent to the stadium.
The award ceremony was held directly in the afternoon of the same day, and the medals were handed out in public.
In order to give this competition a perfect ending, Li Hao and Gu Tingye specially asked Gu Yan to open and invited the British public to help.
Of course, in order to be more safe, in addition to Gu Yankai, the two also mobilized the contestants of this competition and asked them to ask their elders to help invite them.
The result was remarkable, and the British public soon agreed to come and preside over the closing ceremony and award awards to the two first place winners.
So under the huge attention, all the participating families came out to watch the competition live.
In the first Cuju game, the two teams came together to fight for the ball. A dozen people meleeed in an area of less than a few square meters.
From time to time, they would also launch attacks on the lower third route, which made Li Hao feel embarrassed.
However, after training in so many previous games, there is no shortage of various tactical moves in group confrontations. This is the only thing that makes Li Hao happy.
However, Li Hao still decided to change the rules. After all, this must be fully promoted in the future. If any civil servant dares to join in this current offensive method, it will not be conducive for ordinary people to play the game.
After all, after this game, there were a lot of injuries. It was also strange that Li Hao was told by Gu Tingye that there was no limit on the maximum number of people that could be replaced in a game.
