Three Kingdoms: I don’t want to fall in love in troubled times

Chapter 26 Xiliang Incident

Jia Xu took off his helmet, revealing a rough face worn by the wind and sand. He had come to Luoyang for a period of time as an official in his early years, and he was also a white-faced scholar at that time.

It's a pity that the Liangzhou native has no future in the center. He took advantage of the opportunity to recuperate and returned to his hometown. Since then, he has been serving in the Xiliang army. In the blink of an eye, he is already 42 years old, which is considered a proper senior veteran in this era.

After many years of military career and a naturally taciturn character, Jia Xu is like a stone statue when he is not talking. He does not have a strong presence in the crowd and just observes the surrounding environment secretly. Therefore, when the Liangzhou army entered the city just now, Xu Jiashu Didn't notice him at all.

But when he is interested in something, he talks like a reserved and curious middle-aged uncle, which makes people feel good. At least Xu Jiashu is willing to take this uncle into the big pit of football and patiently tells Jia Xu about it. The students' football game.

"Since this is the rule, wouldn't it be good if I asked one person to stay at the end, two people to be flexible, and the remaining seven to press on?"

After hearing the rules, Jia Xu thought for a moment and asked the young Dr. Xu.

Xu Jiashu was startled for a moment, because when there was no offside rule at the beginning, the mainstream tactics of football were indeed like this.

反正谁也防不住谁，干脆1-1-8或者1-2-7，进攻起来双方门前一大堆人等着抢点，虽然也有2-2-6回撤一个进攻球员防守的，但总体确实是极度偏向进攻的没错。

"Actually, the current rules are for children and are not perfect." Xu Jiashu took out the main rules of modern football. Jia Xu became more interested and nodded repeatedly, especially when the offside rule came out. His eyes lit up even more, "This is much more interesting!"

Then Jia Xu found a branch and started making random gestures on the ground, very much like a folk football coach. Xu Jiashu was also curious about what shocking results this famous "poisoner" in the Three Kingdoms could achieve, so he took a closer look.

I saw that he first laid out a classic 4-4-2 without any instruction, and then erased it and drew a formation similar to 4-2-3-1. Just when Xu Jiashu was about to explain it to him, Jia Xu muttered "wrong." and crossed it out again.

After repeating this process, Jia Xu finally cut off the grass roots of the land and turned it into a small piece of white land before he stopped.

"What, Brother Wenhe doesn't want to play anymore?"

Seeing that the result of his final deduction was blank, Xu Jiashu was surprised.

"I just suddenly thought of something." Jia Xu shook the branch in his hand unconsciously. "Although it is similar to fighting, when fighting, I only need to give orders to the captains under my command, not the thoughts of individual soldiers. I understand."

"But", he pointed to the players on both sides, "there are only 11 people in this game. No matter how good the tactics are, each of them must try their best to execute them to be effective."

Using a game analogy, war can be compared to a chess deduction game with extremely complex parameters, including morale, weather, terrain, and countless other variables. It can be divided into three levels: strategy, campaign, and combat according to scale and impact. But generally Generally speaking, the smallest unit is [a certain department].

Football is different. Modern football is like a negotiation and trade game during the transfer window. It is like a development game when training players. It is like a chess game when formulating tactics. It is like a card game when commanding on the spot. Excellent coaches You must have a thorough understanding of the characteristics of each player.

Jia Xu was deducing tactics here with great interest, and suddenly realized that he didn't know anything about these young players, and no matter how many gestures he made, it was just talk on paper.

He is used to planning in advance, breaking down the possibilities as clearly as possible, and then making the best decision. This style, combined with his keen observation of people's hearts, has made him rarely suffer major losses in his military career.

But when it comes to winning the trust of his subordinates and stimulating their potential in a short period of time, to put it simply, Jia Xu is very confused when it comes to situations where his charisma needs to be exerted. He is not used to being a leader by nature.

Getting along with others is not my strength. This game called football may not be suitable for me, Jia Xu thought. "It doesn't matter," Xu Jiashu advised. He didn't want to miss this opportunity to amuse Jia Xu. "It's just a game. It doesn't matter if you lose. Brother Wenhe, why don't you give it a try?"

That's right, it wasn't a war, Jia Xu suddenly burst out laughing - after serving in the army for a long time, the strings in his heart were always tight, and he was used to having to calculate everything carefully before he would act.

Jia Wenhe, Jia Wenhe, at such a young age, could it be that he just learned to worry about gains and losses?

"Okay, let's compete with Zi Mao first!"

Jia Xu threw away the branch and stood up to arrange tactics for his young players. After leading troops for many years, he certainly knew that it would be impossible to achieve any subtle coordination from the beginning. In this case, simplicity and roughness were the best.

He placed the tall man in the team at the forward position. With the ability of the novice goalkeepers on both sides, as long as the forwards can win the header, they will most likely be able to score.

After the tactical arrangements were completed, Jia Xu looked at Xu Jiashu's team, which was also equipped with tall forwards. In a short period of time, the tactics of the two teams evolved from the classic Xia Ji eight kicks to long passes and lobs.

Since there is no timing tool, it is simply stipulated that the team that scores three goals first wins.

Not long after the game started, Xu Jiashu's "No. 1" performed well. Being assigned to the forward position, he first dribbled the ball straight into the penalty area to create a point, and soon led 0:[-]. Then he kicked with his head and kicked, giving Jia Xu's team a chance. Fragile defeat.

The defeat in the game was expected, but such a defeat still made Jia Xu curious: "Zimao and I use similar tactics, why are there so many differences?"

That "No. [-]" is just a little taller, so he was assigned by Xu Jiashu to be the goalkeeper, but his physical fitness is not yet good enough to kill everyone. Jia Xu wants to know what Xu Jiashu did to make the game better. One-sided.

"There are three reasons."

Xu Jiashu smiled mysteriously and raised three fingers. "No. [-] took the initiative to join me before. I am eager to win and have good morale. This is one. I am their teacher, and my command is justified. This is the second."

Jia Xu nodded repeatedly. These two reasons were in line with the art of war and were easy to understand.

"The third thing"

Xu Jiashu pointed to the wine shop outside Xiangcheng, where he and Mi Zhu first met, "It was freezing cold. I promised my students that I would treat them to drinks if they won the competition. Thinking that they would have drinks if they won, they all naturally rushed to be the first. ”

"Zimao is such a wonderful man!" Jia Xu praised. "He understands people's hearts, understands names, and is good at rewards and punishments. If he joins the army, he will be a good man who has made great achievements!"

When it comes to strategizing, Jia Xu is confident that he can't lose to anyone, but now he feels that if they meet on the battlefield, he may not be the opponent of this doctor of the Five Classics.

"Brother Wen He is so impressed! If you don't mind, how about we go have a few drinks to warm ourselves up?" Xu Jiashu lost no time in sending out the invitation, "I still have many things I want to ask you."
