Chapter 398 The sports games bring shock to all countries (Happy New Year!)
"The Chengtianfu team is entering the field now, and they are coming towards us."
"Come on Team Chengtianfu!"
"Team Chengtianfu must win!"
There were not many people shouting, because many people from Chengtian Mansion followed the emperor to the new capital of the empire.
It can be said that this is half of their home court.
As an old area of Ming Dynasty imperialism, they have strong self-confidence and can get the top three, or even the first place!
The third team to enter is the Guangzhou team, which is a team formed by a group of wealthy businessmen.
"Come on, Guangzhou team!"
"The Guangzhou team must win!"
It seems that after the athlete is over, he will move up one liter.
There are many spectators on the sports field every day. In addition to students watching, people from the government take turns to watch, there are also people from various provinces sent to watch, as well as foreign guests and tourists, and international students come to watch. There are often huge crowds and shouts resounding in the sky.
The first thing to start is the football match, which is the most popular sport in Ming Dynasty.
The sidelines of the sports field were covered with all kinds of colorful advertisements. The organizing committee received a lot of rewards through advertising bidding, thus saving the money invested. It was a very happy thing.
There were no surprises in the final, with Chengtianfu team defeating Yingtianfu team 5-1 to win the championship.
Interspersed with the football games are track and field events.
In the swimming pool, athletes jumped into the water quickly, cutting through the waves, and competing.
The rules of rifle shooting are also very simple, that is, scoring is based on the number of rings on the bullseye.
Compared to other competitions, it is also the most professional, after all, I have played for a year or two.
Many people just know that the Ming army's muskets are very powerful.
The medal list announced every day has aroused great interest. Currently, the Chengtianfu team leads the Yingtianfu team with a slight advantage.
An hour later, more than 30 teams finally entered the venue and sat down in their seats.
The closing ceremony was naturally very grand. The Prime Minister of the Ming Empire raised the Ming Dynasty's sun and moon flag and promised to see everyone in Guangzhou four years later!
The third place went to the Luzon Protectorate Team, with 25 gold medals.
Since the invention of the Ming Dynasty bicycle, people all over the world, except the Qing Dynasty, have fallen in love with it. It can be said that there are many fans.
There are ten bullets, and the target has a maximum of 10 points. Whoever gets the highest score wins.
They received a warm welcome as soon as they entered the venue, mainly because many wealthy businessmen from Guangzhou came here.
The next day, the sports meeting began, and the players fought fiercely on the field to strive for the gold medal.
The dignitaries under the Qing Dynasty also wanted bicycles. However, the Ming Dynasty imposed a trade embargo on the Qing Dynasty and prohibited other countries from maritime trade with the Qing Dynasty. As a result, the quality of life of the people in the north and the south was very different.
During the competition, the archery skills of the members of each team amazed everyone in the stadium.
The two-week Daming National Games came to an end soon.
In the football match, the Chengtianfu team still had a big advantage. Every team met the Chengtian team and was unable to fight back, scoring more than 5 goals every time.
Interestingly, cycling is included in the official competition.
He also briefly talked about the emperor's immortal achievements in foreign conquests, explained the achievements in domestic construction, and said that the smooth holding of the National Games was the best gift to the Ming Empire and the emperor.
But it can be seen here, which is a feast for the eyes of the broad audience.
Therefore, the players in this shooting competition are basically from the military.
It is close to full marks, which is a very good result. The first place winner is Lin Jianfeng of the Chengtianfu team. This person is a soldier in the First Town of the Guards Army with the rank of second lieutenant.
It has basically reached the level of later generations in the 1980s and 1990s, and is still worth watching.
A large-scale fireworks display was held, and countless fireworks shot into the sky, lighting up Yingtian City!
Kazuhiko Yasui said regretfully: "Japanese people have short legs. It's too difficult to win a gold medal!"
The huge momentum shows the vast territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Ming Dynasty football has developed rapidly, and Ming Dynasty's overall football skills have also improved a lot.
Zhu Kezang was quite satisfied after watching such a football match.
Suddenly, bright fireworks bloomed in the night sky, passionate melody resounded throughout the audience, colorful flags were waving, and cheers continued for a long time.
When all the athletes had entered the stadium, Chen Yonghua, chairman of the organizing committee and Prime Minister of the Empire, delivered an opening speech. At the opening ceremony, on behalf of the Ming Empire, he expressed a warm welcome to athletes, coaches, and guests from various countries and regions.
The builders and workers who participated in the preparations for the Ming Dynasty Plenary Session would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all friends who care about and support the Games!
Chen Yonghua said that the important mission of the National Games is to promote cultural exchanges within various regions of the Ming Dynasty and the Holy Ming Dynasty Alliance. The empire sincerely hopes that the long history and culture of the Chinese nation and the warm and hospitable people can leave good memories for our friends.
.
That's right, if there were no war impact, the National Games would be held every four years!
This will become a symbol of the Ming Empire. The venue for the second Ming National Games was designated by Zhu Kezang as Guangzhou City!
Amid the curiosity and expectations of the audience, the highest score was soon achieved, 99 points.
He is indeed the Goryeo soldier who is best at running away.
In the end, a man named Hou Yi won the first place. He was a member of the Hangzhou team. His archery skills were so superb that all ten arrows hit the same position.
The track and field competition is relatively simple, each team has one runner, and the top three in each race of ten will advance to the next round.
The last ones to enter the arena with the lowest status are the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, the Korean national team, the Aceh national team, the Siam national team, the Ryukyu national team, and the Matalan national team.
In the evening, Prime Minister Chen Yonghua announced in a loud voice: "The opening ceremony of the First Ming Dynasty National Games is over!"
Now having the opportunity to see rifle shooting with one's own eyes is very tempting for everyone.
If there is a timer for this era, it will be about 11 seconds.
Kazuhiko Yasui of the Japanese Protectorate followed the usual training and followed the brigade, taking his time and not being pulled too far away. When the time was right, he sprinted again.
The first place was the Chengtianfu team, which won 42 gold medals, and the second place was the Yingtianfu team, which won 39 gold medals.
Oncoming were the Jiaozhi team, the Myanmar team, the Johor team, the Lancang team, the Khmer team, the Nanyang Islands team, the Luzon Protectorate team, and the Japanese Protectorate team.
Swimmers have many fans, especially female athletes. Although the swimsuits are too tight and the figure cannot be seen, the audience is still in awe!
In the boxing ring, the boxers punched hard and fought vigorously, and the audience cheered them loudly.
The most inspirational prize of this sports meeting is the most unexpected vassal state of Goryeo.
Many people are good at archery. After being screened by these teams, basically everyone is a sharpshooter.
Although the Ming Dynasty produced many firearms, these weapons could only be used in the army and were not allowed to appear among civilians.
Modern football has been around for a long time in Ming Dynasty, so the football players of each team have to train for a long time.
The next project is archery, which was very familiar to the people of the seventeenth century.
His strategy was right and his stamina was strong. In the final sprint, he was at the forefront. In the end, he won second place and a silver medal.
Although there are many venues for football matches, the final of the football match still starts on the seventh day.
The next project is rifle shooting, which interests everyone greatly.
This was the first time that Japan's Protectorate was established. The only one was a silver medal, let alone a gold medal.
When he heard that this marksman was called Hou Yi, Zhu Kezang became a little interested in Hou Yi and asked him to stay in Yingtian Mansion.
Teams from various provinces in the Ming Dynasty entered the field one after another. The costumes of the second group entering the field were a bit flashy, because they were the teams representing the border areas of the Ming Dynasty.
"The next ones to enter are the representative teams from the Ming Dynasty border area!"
They ranked sixth with ten gold medals, because the people they participated in the sports meeting were all Korean soldiers trained by the Ming Dynasty garrison, and they won many gold medals in long-distance running events!
But they don't know what such a powerful method is.
On the track and field, with the sound of a gun, the athletes flew out like arrows, running in the wind, and they all ran with all their strength.
Skills like piercing the Yang with a hundred steps and hitting the target with a hundred shots are something that ordinary people have no chance to see.
To save time, the football matches are played simultaneously.
"Come on! Come on!" The cheerleaders outside the field shouted louder and louder. The athletes worked harder and sprinted. The athletes suddenly began to explode, swinging their arms vigorously, taking big steps, and rushing forward quickly.
When the starting gun sounded, the players pedaled their bicycles and started a fierce battle.
The competition adopts a two-to-one elimination system, which means that as long as you can eliminate your opponent, you will advance, and a champion will be determined at the end.
This is the place where modern football first appeared, and they have simply become a nightmare for all football teams.
The spectators outside the field cheered for their respective athletes desperately, and the cheers were deafening. In the end, Su Xiang from Guangzhou Prefecture of the Ming Dynasty won the 100-meter championship with extremely fast results!
Although there was no timer, on the 100-meter track, he rode like a king, and his huge position with other runners left a deep impression on people!
Zhu Kezang watched this game and could see that the Chengtianfu football team finally gave Yingtianfu face and gave them a ball. It was quite good. Friendship comes first, competition second!
Countless fireworks shot into the sky, and the sky was full of fireworks. The Japanese Yasui Kazuhiko was thinking: When will our Japanese Protectorate be able to hold the next sports meeting?
In the eyes of the British, French, and Spanish, the successful holding of this Games was deeply impressive, the event was unprecedented, and it fully demonstrated the style of a powerful empire.
Let them deeply understand the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, see the great power of the Ming Dynasty, and be more in awe of the Ming Dynasty.
The sports games are over and delegations from various countries are returning home one after another.
They were deeply impressed by Ming Dynasty's magnanimity and comfortable steamships. What a great country!
