Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 232 League Plan

Facts have proved that there is no motivation without pressure. Ever since Gao Ming said that the winner will get the money and the loser will have to wash his underwear, the Baiqiguards on both sides immediately started to work hard.

If it wasn't because Gao Ming said in advance that punching and kicking are not allowed, then this rugby match that just came to Datang would definitely turn into a bloody incident. .

"Hey, the one on the left with the shaggy face and beard, bumps into bumps, don't bite... Oh shit, you still dare to spit? Be civilized, okay?"

"The one in the front, let's talk about you. You can bump into him or hug him when you are blocking the opponent, but you are not allowed to trip with your legs. Oh, your uncle, how dare you use your legs?"

"You pass the ball to the one with the ball, you are only allowed to pass left and right, not forward pass..."

The competition on the field was very intense, and Gao Ming was exhausted after running, but seeing the competition gradually becoming more formal, Gao Ming was also full of joy in his heart.

"It seems that my hard work has not been in vain. After they have all learned it, I will organize a professional rugby league. At that time, the soldiers will also have fun, and I will make money and enjoy myself. It really kills two birds with one stone, hahahaha... "

He Gan Chengji stood beside Gao Ming, his eyes widened immediately after hearing Gao Ming's words.

"Can this still make money?"

Probably because of being too surprised, Hegan Chengji's voice was a little loud, and after hearing his words, Gao Ming immediately gave him a blank look.

"I have no experience, of course we can make money. This time, our Baiqiwei will expand to nearly 2 people at a time. I will pay for these people to support them. According to the standards of our Baiqiwei, the monthly military salary, including food Including, it costs almost [-] guan, if I don’t want to make money anymore, you go to the Northwest?”

He Gan Chengji was a little embarrassed when he heard Gao Ming's words.

"Uh...Actually, Commander, we should only have more than 180 cavalry guards, and each of them will be paid two yuan a month. As for those cavalry guards, they don't fight now, they just have to eat, and they don't need to be paid for the army. Yes, even if you give it, it’s enough for each person to give one hundred coins, and two thousand coins a month is enough.”

As soon as Hegan Chengji finished speaking, Gao Ming immediately shook his head.

"No, I don't care about the other troops, but we, the Hundred Cavalry Guards, have been officially appointed since we entered the barracks, and the military salary must be paid, and a hundred coins is not enough!"

According to the prices in the Tang Dynasty today, one hundred Wen is actually three or four hundred yuan for future generations, so Gao Ming patted Hegan Chengji on the shoulder again.

"Aki, don't treat these cavalry guards as ordinary soldiers, because they will be my eyes and ears in the future, so their monthly salary should be at least the same amount, and this number must not be less!"

Seeing Gao Ming's serious look, He Gan Chengji nodded quickly.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief, the subordinates understand."

At this time, Hegan Chengji also understood how much Gao Ming attached importance to Baiqiwei, and he suddenly became secretly happy.

"His Royal Highness even attaches so much importance to these ordinary hundred knight soldiers, so the importance of me as a commander will be even more self-evident in the future. It seems that I have to work harder!"

Thinking of this, Hegan Chengji quickly bowed to Gao Ming and saluted him.

"Your Commander, but you have orders, your subordinates must go all out, and you will never let down the trust of your Commander!"

Hearing that Hegan Chengji began to express his loyalty again, Gao Ming couldn't help laughing immediately.

"You are so obedient and your words are getting smoother and smoother. It just so happens that I have two things for you to do now. The first thing is them!"

As he said that, Gao Ming pointed to the Hundred Knights who were playing in the rugby field, and then opened his mouth to Hegan Chengji.

"I'll give you a month, I want to see at least a hundred football teams like this!"

The reason why Gao Ming asked Hegan Chengji to form at least one hundred rugby teams is to organize a large-scale rugby league. As long as there are one hundred teams, based on three games per day, then at least three months of competition can be played .

And Gao Ming has already made up his mind. When Zhang Sizheng comes back, let him organize a hundred rugby teams. At that time, there will be a total of two hundred teams of Baiqiwei, and they will be able to compete for half a year.

Thinking of this, Gao Ming immediately raised his chin towards Hegan Chengji.

"I'm not discussing with you again, if you can't do it, then I'll let someone else do it!"

After hearing Gao Ming's words, Hegan Chengji nodded immediately.

"Master Commander, this subordinate can do it. This subordinate intends to let each of the Hundred Knights form a rugby team, and then this subordinate organizes a few more teams, so that there will be a hundred teams. What do you think, Commander?"

Seeing Hegan Chengji's cautious look, Gao Ming immediately waved his hand.

"I don't care how you do it. Anyway, let me see a hundred teams. After organizing the team, remember to choose a name, then register it and give it to me. I will set the schedule when the time comes."

Although Hegan Chengji didn't understand what a schedule is, but Gao Ming asked him to register and hand over the names of those teams, Hegan Chengji understood, so he nodded immediately.

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

Hearing that Hegan Chengji agreed so simply, Gao Ming nodded again in satisfaction.

"It's good to know, then I will talk about the second thing, and the second thing is this stadium!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming stepped on the ground under his feet, and then looked up at Hegan Chengji.

"Since the game is made, it is for others to watch. If everyone just gathers around to watch, then this venue can only accommodate more than 2000 people at most, which is too small, so I need you to build a place that can accommodate at least tens of thousands of people. stands!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, He Gan Chengji frowned immediately, then cupped his fists towards Gao Ming and said, "Master Commander, please forgive my ignorance, I don't know what this stand is?"

Seeing Hegan Chengji's puzzled expression, Gao Ming suddenly laughed.

"The function of this stand is actually the same as that of our school field. When our hundred cavalry guards compete on the field, the common people will be able to watch the game from the stands."

Hearing Gao Ming's answer, He Gan Chengji nodded this time as if he suddenly realized.

"My subordinates understand that what Commander-in-Chief means is to build a circle of grandstands around the rugby field. The stands at the back are higher than the ones at the front. In this way, more people can be accommodated under the stacked layers. Watched."

Speaking of this, Hegan Chengji quickly gave Gao Ming his thumbs up.

"My lord, the Commander, has a high opinion, high! It's really high!"

"..."

Flatterer!
After hearing Hegan Chengji's flattery, Gao Ming snorted lightly, and then raised three fingers towards him.

"Hmph, don't flatter me. I'll give you three months to build the stand. I don't care if you use stone or wood, as long as you build me a stand that can accommodate tens of thousands of people within three months!"

He Gan Chengji touched a soft nail, touched his nose in embarrassment, then bowed to Gao Ming.

"Master Commander, this subordinate will send someone to cut wood and build a stand right now, please excuse me to leave first!"

"Ok!"

He Gan Chengji straightened up after hearing Gao Ming's snort from his nasal cavity, then turned and left.

For Hegan Chengji, it is not difficult to build a circle of stands around the rugby field, because there is a large forest around the military camp, and the problem of materials has been solved. As for labor, it is not a problem. What a strong man!
When Gao Ming asked Hegan Chengji to go to the Jinwu Guard to select soldiers, Hegan Chengji naturally selected young and strong soldiers. These soldiers may lack other things, but they do not lack strength.

And in Hegan Chengji's view, the grandstand is not a difficult project. It is nothing more than planting wooden piles on the bottom and laying wooden boards on the top. In fact, it is just a bigger platform.

Hegan Chengji was sure that with more than 9000 laborers, he would be able to build a stand around the football field that could accommodate tens of thousands of people within a month at the most!
"His Royal Highness asked me to build a stand that can accommodate tens of thousands of people in three months. Since there is still plenty of time, I will simply build a stand that can accommodate 2 people. I think His Highness will be very happy!"

Thinking of this, He Gan Chengji suddenly showed a frightened smile on his face.

"Maybe this is also the capital for me to be promoted to the Commander of the Hundred Cavalry Guards in the future. Well, I must do this well. I want to see what you, Zhang Sizheng, are fighting with me, hahahaha!"

While He Gan Chengji was hiding in his tent and laughing, the game on the rugby field came to an end.

Half an hour of uninterrupted competition exhausted the Hundred Knights soldiers on the court. After many people were knocked down, it took more than a dozen breaths to stand up.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming decisively announced the end of the game.

"The game is over, the winner, the yellow team, will be rewarded with two guans each, and I will go to your commanding colleagues for advice."

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers in the arena.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

"Long live His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Those who cheered were all the hundred knights with yellow cloth strips tied on their arms, that is, the winning team, while the members of the blue team who lost the game lowered their heads one by one, looking like defeated roosters. It's just that from their clenched fists, it can be seen that their mood is not calm.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming walked to the middle of the arena with a smile, and patted their shoulders.

"It doesn't matter if you lose the game, you can just win it next time, and the purpose of my letting you compete this time is mainly to give you a demonstration, so that everyone understands what is going on with this football, so don't be too frustrated."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the Hundred Knights with blue cloth strips tied to their arms immediately raised their heads, their eyes full of emotion.

"His Royal Highness..."

In their view, no matter what, losing is losing, and failure is failure, but the prince Gao Ming did not blame them for their failure, but encouraged them instead, which moved them very much.

Looking at their grateful eyes, Gao Ming also nodded with a smile.

"Okay, I think everyone is tired, you all go back to rest, by the way, the yellow team's obscene pants are handed over to you, remember to wash them clean!"

"Uh……"
