Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 398 The shock brought by the sports meeting to all countries (Happy New Year!)

"Chengtianfu team is entering the field now, and they are coming head-on."

"Chengtianfu team, come on!"

"Chengtianfu team will win!"

There were not too few 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 imperialism, they have strong self-confidence and can get the top three, or even the first!

The third team to enter the field is the Guangzhou team, which is a team formed by a group of wealthy businessmen.

"Guangzhou team come on!"

"The Guangzhou team will win!"

They also received a warm welcome as soon as they entered the arena, mainly because many wealthy businessmen from Guangzhou came here.

Teams from various provinces of Ming Dynasty entered the arena one after another, and the second part entered the arena in a bit of gaudy attire, because it was the representative team from the frontier regions of Ming Dynasty.

"The next ones to enter the field are the representative teams from the frontier of the Ming Dynasty!"

Oncoming are the Cochin, Myanmar, Johor, Lancang, Khmer, Nanyang Islands, Luzon Duhufu, and Dongying Duhufu teams.

The momentum is huge, which shows the vast territory of Ming Dynasty.

The lowest status in the final entry is the various vassal states of Ming Dynasty, the Korean national team, the Aceh national team, the Siam national team, the Ryukyu national team, and the Mataram national team.

An hour later, more than 30 teams finally entered the arena, and they all sat in their seats.

When all the athletes have entered the arena, the chairman of the organizing committee and Imperial Prime Minister Chen Yonghua delivered an opening speech. On behalf of the Ming Empire, he extended a warm welcome to athletes, coaches, and guests from various countries and regions. The builders and workers who participated in the preparation of the Ming Dynasty Plenary Session would like to express their 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 between the various regions of the Ming Dynasty and the sacred Ming 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 friends .

He also briefly described the emperor's immortal achievements in foreign conquests, explained the achievements of domestic construction, and said that the smooth holding of the National Games is the best gift to the Ming Empire and the emperor.

In the evening, Prime Minister Chen Yonghua announced in a loud voice: "The opening ceremony of the first Ming Dynasty National Games is over!"

Immediately, dazzling fireworks burst into the night sky, passionate melody resounded throughout the audience, colorful flags were waved, and cheers continued for a long time.

A large-scale fireworks display was held, and countless fireworks shot into the sky, illuminating Yingtian City!

The next day, the sports meeting began, and the players fought fiercely on the field, striving for the gold medal.

First started football, which is the most popular sport in Ming Dynasty.

Modern football has been around in Ming Dynasty for a long time, so the football players of each team spend a long time training.

Compared with other games, it is also the most professional, after all, it has been played for a year or two.

In order to save time, football matches are played simultaneously.

The game adopts a two-in-one-elimination system, which means that as long as you can eliminate your opponent, you can advance, and finally a champion will be determined.

The development of Daming football is very fast, and now Daming's overall football skills have also improved a lot.

Zhu Kezang was quite satisfied after watching such a football game.

It has basically reached the level of later generations in the 90s and [-]s, and it is still worth watching.

In the football match, the Chengtianfu team had a great advantage. Every team was helpless when they met the Chengtian team, scoring more than 5 goals every time.

This is the place where modern football first appeared, and they have become the nightmare of all football teams.

Although there are many football venues, the final of the football match will start on the seventh day.

No surprises in the final, the Chengtianfu team defeated the Yingtianfu team [-]-[-] to win the championship.

Zhu Kezang watched the game, and he could see that the Chengtianfu football team finally gave Ying Tianfu face and gave them a ball, which was pretty good. Friendship comes first, competition comes second!

Interspersed with football games are track and field games.

The track and field competition is relatively simple. Each team has a runner, and the top three in each ten-person competition will enter the next round.

On the track and field field, with the sound of a "beep" gunshot, the athletes rushed out like arrows off the string, running with wind, and they all ran with all their strength.

"Come on! Come on!" The shouts of the cheerleaders outside the stadium were louder and louder, and the athletes struggled and sprinted. Suddenly, the athletes broke out, swung their arms vigorously, took big strides, and rushed forward quickly.

The spectators outside the court cheered for their athletes desperately, and the cheers were deafening. In the end, Su Xiang from the Guangzhou Mansion of the Ming Dynasty won the 100-meter champion with extremely fast results!
Although there is no timer, but on the 100-meter runway, he rode the dust and pulled out a huge posture with other competitors, which impressed people!

If this era had a timer it would be around 11 seconds.

The next project is archery, which was all too familiar to the people of the seventeenth century.

Many common people know how to shoot arrows, and after being screened by these teams, basically all of them are marksmen.

During the game, the archery skills of each team member amazed everyone in the stadium.

Common people don't have the chance to see such skills as one-hundred-step piercing Yang and one-time shooting.

But it can be seen here, but it also feasts the eyes of the broad audience.

In the end, a man named Hou Yi got No.1. He is a member of the Hangzhou team. His arrow skills are simply superb, and all ten arrows were shot at the same position.

When Zhu Kezang heard that the sharpshooter was called Hou Yi, Zhu Kezang became a little interested in Hou Yi and asked him to stay in Yingtian Mansion.

The next project was rifle shooting, which was of great interest to all.

Although Daming manufactured a lot of firearms, these weapons can only be used in the army and are not allowed to appear in the civilian population.

Therefore, the players in this shooting competition are basically from the army.

Many common people just know that the muskets of the Ming army are very powerful.

But they don't know how powerful it is.

It is tempting for all to now have the opportunity to see a rifle in action.

The rule of rifle shooting is also very simple, that is, the number of rings in the bull's-eye is used to score points.

There are ten bullets, the bull's eye has the highest score of 10, and whoever has the highest score wins.

Amidst the audience's curiosity and expectation, the highest score, 99 points, was soon produced.

It is close to full marks, which is a very good result. The No. 1 player is Lin Jianfeng from the Chengtianfu team. He is a soldier from the first town of the Guards Army, and his rank is Second Lieutenant.

It seems that after the athlete is over, he will go up another liter.

On the swimming field, the athletes jumped into the water swiftly, cutting through the waves and fighting to compete.

Swimmers have a lot of fans, especially female athletes. Although the swimsuits are tight and the figure cannot be seen, the audience is still feasting their eyes!
In the boxing ring, the boxers punched to the flesh, fighting vigorously, and the audience cheered for them loudly.

The medal list announced every day has aroused great interest. Currently, the Chengtianfu team leads the Yingtianfu team with a slight advantage.

There are many spectators on the sports field every day. In addition to students watching, people from the government take turns to watch, and people from various provinces send people to watch, as well as foreign guests, tourists, and students studying abroad.

On the sidelines of the sports field, various colorful advertisements were painted all over. The organizing committee got a lot of returns through advertising bidding, thus saving the invested funds. It was a very happy thing.

Interestingly, cycling is included in the official competition.

Since the invention of the Ming Dynasty bicycle, people all over the world, except the Qing Dynasty, have fallen in love with it, and it can be said that there are many fans.

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.

When the starting gun sounded, the players stepped on their bicycles and engaged in fierce competition.

Kazuhiko Yasui of Dongying Protectorate Mansion follows the brigade according to the usual training, taking his time and not being pulled too far, and then sprints when it is almost the same time.

His strategy was right and his physical strength was great. In the final sprint stage, he was in the forefront. In the end, he won No.2 and a silver medal.

This is the first time that Dongpu Protectorate has opened up the world. It is the only silver medal, let alone the gold medal.

Yasui Kazuhiko said regretfully: "The Japanese have short legs. It is too difficult to win the gold medal!"

The two-week Daming National Games soon came to an end.

No.1 is the Chengtianfu team, which has won 42 gold medals, and the No.2 Yingtianfu team has won 39 gold medals.

No.3 is the representative team of Luzon Duhufu, with 25 gold medals.

The most inspirational award of the games is the most unexpected vassal state of Korea.

They ranked sixth with ten gold medals, because all of them participated in the sports meeting were Korean soldiers trained by the Ming garrison, and they won many gold medals in long-distance running!

It is indeed the Korean soldier who is the best at running.

The closing ceremony was naturally grand. The Prime Minister of the Ming Empire raised the sun and moon national flag of Ming Dynasty, and promised everyone to see you in Guangzhou four years later!

That's right, if there is no impact of war, the National Games will be held every four years!
This will become a symbol of the Ming Empire, and the venue for the Second National Games of the Ming Dynasty was designated by Zhu Kezang as Guangzhou City!

Countless fireworks shoot up into the sky, and the fire trees and silver flowers never leave the sky. The Japanese Yasui Kazuhiko is thinking: when will we be able to hold the last sports meeting in Dongying Duhufu?
In the eyes of the British, French and Spaniards, the success of this sports meeting impressed people, the unprecedented grandeur, and fully demonstrated the demeanor of a powerful empire.

Let them have a deep understanding of the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, see the great power of the Ming Dynasty, and be more in awe of the Ming Dynasty.

The Games ended, and delegations from various countries returned home one after another.

Daming was generous and generous, and the comfortable steamship impressed them deeply. What a great country it is!
