Chapter 116 Clouds Hanging Ball Game
It was said that there was going to be night training, but Ren Ning still made preparations first, and it wasn't a whim that pulled the entire Fifth Battalion up the mountain that night.

He went on to teach the soldiers how to orient themselves in the mountains, find water and food, and attack or defend themselves.

Every three to five days, people from the fifth battalion were sent up the mountain in batches to practice courage.

The method is very simple, that is, let the soldiers go up the mountain alone to find a tomb to sleep, and then come down the next day.

The ancients were superstitious.On weekdays, there are endless legends about new graves, ghosts, mandrills, and zombies.Even if there was no prohibition, many people would not dare to go out at night, let alone sleep beside earthen graves in the mountains.

The Starfall Legion is indeed an elite army, killing people without blinking an eye.It's just that this kind of fear of the unknown hidden in people's bones is no different from ordinary people.

Especially in the middle of the night when I was alone in the mountains, surrounded by all kinds of strange sounds, and there was a grave beside me, this kind of fear was extremely magnified.

Ren Ning just asked them to go up the mountain to find an earthen grave to sleep in, but all of them turned pale, feeling as if they were killing them.

However, the Starfall Legion has always been strict in military discipline, and the soldiers had to go to the mountain before dark to find a lonely grave and spend the night, and the higher the climb, the better.

There is no other reason, mosquitoes only live at a certain height.Up to a certain height, mosquitoes will be reduced or even disappear.

More than half a month passed by in a hurry, and the people of the fifth battalion took turns to go up the mountain to sleep a few times, and the effect was remarkable.Speaking of the lonely female ghost haunting the mountains in the middle of the night, everyone snorted and didn't take it seriously.

In a blink of an eye, it is the 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

On this day, the inside and outside of the Yingshan camp was carefully wiped out again, and the general of the army announced the annual leave.

The annual leave is very long, from the [-]th day of the new year to the fifth day of the new year, a total of six days.

Normally, the annual leave is not so long, usually only three days.

But the Starfall Legion hasn't really had their annual vacation for several years.Especially last year when I was in the Yanzhen Fortress, I was still rolling in the snow for training on the first day of the new year, and I didn't even have time to write a letter home.

So the general decided to make up for it this year.

The [-] soldiers immediately beamed with joy.

Even though they can't leave Yingshan Camp during the annual leave, let alone go home, it's always good to have a few days off.

Ren Ning stood in front of everyone in the Fifth Battalion with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.

"After a few months, everyone should understand my Ren Ning's temperament, I don't like to talk nonsense. Now I will take the annual leave immediately, and I won't take up too much of everyone's time. I just say a few words and then disband."

clap clap.

The little soldiers laughed and applauded.

Ren Ning pressed his hands to signal the soldiers to stop.

"First thing, today and tomorrow we will organize literate soldiers in the camp to help you write home letters for free. If you need it, don't miss it."

hum!
The soldiers all beamed with joy.

Crash.

The applause was louder than before.

For Xiao Bing, the happiest thing is to send out the military noon. In addition, he can receive news and replies from his family during the Chinese New Year. Even a few words are enough to satisfy his heart.

It can be said that Ren Ning has scratched their itch.

"The second thing is that you can't go out of the camp during the annual vacation, and you don't have to worry about being bored during the six days."

He pointed to the large and small rubber balls at his feet.

"I will teach you how to play basketball and football. Like polo, they can not only exercise the body and release stress, but also teach you to trust and cooperate with each other. I believe everyone will fall in love with these two sports in the future."

The soldiers looked at each other.

They understand polo.That's a nobleman's game.

Polos are extremely fragile and expensive.A better game of polo would cost the soldiers almost a year of military service, which is really unaffordable.In addition, the various requirements of polo racing are very high, and there is no time to play during daily training.The little soldiers have only heard about it and never seen it.

As for basketball and football?
What is this ghost?

Including Lei Er and Xiao Gang next to him, they all looked at a loss.

Ren Ning smiled inscrutablely, "If everyone has learned these two ball games, you can consider having a few official games on the fourth and fifth day of the Lunar New Year. At that time, the winner will be rewarded heavily."

puff!
Lei Er spat out the snacks in his mouth.

No matter what 21, he immediately raised his hand: "I, Lei Er, sign up to lead the team first."

Xiao Gang was not far behind, "Since Lei Er signed up, then I, Xiao Gang, will also sign up."

Ren Ning nodded, and then announced the dissolution.

Back in the barracks, the three of them moved out the tables and chairs, and just as they put pens, inks, papers and inkstones on, soldiers immediately lined up impatiently.

The three of them wrote for two days, and it wasn't until New Year's Eve that they finally finished writing nearly a thousand letters from Wuying.

This is the result of the soldiers being complacent and actively blocking the entrance of the camp to prevent the soldiers from other battalions from entering, otherwise I don't know what to write.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Ren Ning received the red envelope from the general of the legion and paid a visit to several neighboring Qianchang, then took the ball to the pre-prepared field.

Yingshan camp already has a lot of flat ground and grass for training.It's just a basketball and football field, and it will come out after a little modification.

He taught basketball first, then football.

Sure enough, the little soldiers were exhausted one by one.Compared with the narrow and small basketball court, the football field where you can run freely is more popular with most people.

Ren Ning introduced the rules: "This is called football. You can only kick it with your feet. You are not allowed to touch it with your hands, let alone use wrenches and hammers."

"Where's the saber?" Lei Er waved his broadsword wildly.

Ren Ning wiped his sweat, "It's not allowed to cut a saber, um, nor is a cavalry gun. All weapons are put away and you are not allowed to leave. Only your feet are allowed!"

Then he stared dumbfounded at a group of soldiers throwing the football aside and kicking it with their feet.

Didi!

Ren Ning blew the whistle and sent off the hardest hitters with red cards.After several twists and turns, he finally started kicking decently on the court.

Soon Ren Ning explained to them what forwards and guards are, how to attack and how to defend.

The little soldiers comprehended quickly, practiced again more methodically, and even won rounds of cheers from the surrounding audience.

Finally, Ren Ning explained the penalty area and penalties.

"If someone trips and trips in the penalty area when attacking, then we can take a penalty, right?" Lei Er rubbed his chin and looked thoughtfully at the wide goal.

Xiao Gang saw his thoughts at a glance, and hurriedly said: "Lei Er, you can't just fall down."

Ren Ning laughed, "Soldiers never tire of cheating. Whether it's a real fall or a flop, as long as you can hide it from the referee, then you will naturally get a penalty kick."

After a lot of teaching, the first football match of the Yunchui Empire finally kicked off.

From Ren Ning's eyes, no matter if it was Lei Er or Xiao Gang, the two sides naturally played with a lot of mistakes, offense was not like offense, defense was not like defense.

However, this is the first time people in this world have seen this kind of game. As long as someone touches the ball on the field, they cheer loudly as if they have won a lottery.This excitement even attracted bored soldiers from other battalions to come and watch.
