Capital Datang

wrestling!In fact, it is hand-to-hand combat. The form of the competition is somewhat similar to wrestling in later generations. Not only does it require players to have a certain amount of strength, but it also requires extremely high skills. However, this form of competition is actually a competition of strength. Those with great strength can defeat their opponents with brute force even if they lack skills, hence the name wrestling.

"Bah bah bah~" On the wrestling platform made of solid wood, Fang Yiai and the big Tubo man named Mantu twisted their arms together, their two big faces were flushed, and they slowly turned in circles trying to knock each other down .Now both of them are naked with their upper body naked, and their lower body is only wearing a pair of bull-nose short sleeves. The sweat on their bodies is transpiring, which is in stark contrast to this severe winter.

"Fang Yiai~Fang Yiai..." The audience below were also very excited, shouting Fang Yiai's name to cheer him on.There is an advantage in fighting locally. The audience below are all citizens of the Tang Dynasty, so naturally they will not cheer for Mantu, a Tibetan.

"Hu Li, how long will this stalemate last? I think brother Yi Ai is a little bit bad. If I knew it, I would have let you take the stage?" Li Yin stood under the stage, looking worriedly at Fang Yiai on the stage. Said.In fact, he is not very good at wrestling, and he can't tell whether the situation on the court is good or bad?

When Hu Li heard it, he laughed and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, if Yiai meets the other party on the battlefield, then he will surely die. After all, this Mantu has a murderous aura all over his body. He just crawled out of the dead. It's not comparable to a stunned young man like Yi Ai!" Capital Datang 196

Li Yin thought that Hu Li would comfort him, but he didn't expect the other party to say such a sentence.Just about to complain, the other party said again: "But now it's a wrestling, the rules have already explained, it is not allowed to attack the other party's vital parts, and even the means of attack are restricted, so that only pure strength and some close A competition of physical skills. In terms of strength, the two are almost on par, but in terms of close combat skills. That barbarian picture is not at all Chapter 190. The Tubo Romans received special training, just relying on the instincts developed on the battlefield In the fight, I can't see anything at first. But I will soon be at a disadvantage!"

As soon as Hu Li's words fell, Fang Yi'ai on the stage suddenly hooked his feet, hooking Mantu's strenuous leg so that he could not stand still.Before the opponent stood up, Fang Yiai followed up and grabbed Mantu's legs, dragged him back a few meters, and then threw the opponent up suddenly.As a result, Mantu's body flew into the air, and he couldn't find a place to rely on, so he had to scratch with both hands.He also yelled angrily!

Seeing the sudden change on the stage, the audience in the audience applauded loudly, but also retreated very wisely. Fang Yiai spotted an open space below the stage, and threw the opponent off with all his arms.

"Boom ~" a loud noise.Mantu's heavy body hit the ground fiercely, kicking up a burst of gray dust, but the other party was obviously not injured, so he straightened up and stood up again, screaming strangely and wanting to rush to the stage again.It's a pity that according to the rules of the game, being thrown off the stage is considered a loss.So a few Tibetan companions in the audience immediately stopped him, and then talked for a long time in Tubo, before calming down Mantu.

On the stage, Fang Yiai narrowly defeated the opponent with one move. Amidst the cheers of the audience, he was full of pride and did not forget to make a provocative gesture to Mantu, which made the opponent angry again. He screamed strangely, and wanted to rush to the stage. After all, he is known as the number one strongman in Tubo. It was an incomparable humiliation, but fortunately the surrounding Tibetans almost stopped him, otherwise there might really be a fight in the arena.

Wrestling decides the winner, and the next is the last game on the first day of the competition. However, compared with horse racing and wrestling, not many people can play the javelin, because in the dynasty before the Song Dynasty, there were very few people in the army. Using a throwing gun as a weapon, even if someone uses it, is generally used as a hunting tool. After all, this thing has a small damage range, and it can only be used once, and it is inconvenient to carry, so few people deliberately practice it.

Li Yin did not introduce the javelin competition to the Winter Games at the beginning, but later found that the competition items were a bit small, so he had to take them out to make up the number. Unexpectedly, there were quite a few people who signed up. After all, compared with other events, the javelin throwing requirements Very low, as long as you don't step on the line, you can do anything else, as long as you can throw the javelin.

However, when the javelin thrower entered the field, Li Yin was stunned, because he found that the Tubo contestant looked very strange. Although the attire was the same as other Tibetans, this guy was tall and had curly brown hair. With a high nose, deep eyes and blue pupils, it is not East Asian at first glance, but it makes Li Yin feel like a European of later generations.

"Brother Yan, look at that Tubo man who participated in the competition, why does he look so strange?" Li Yin happened to be beside Yan Bei, and Li Yin hurriedly pulled him over and pointed to the Tubo man on the field and asked.

"What's so strange about this is that Tubo and the Western Regions are very close to each other. Many people from the Western Regions will go to Tibet to do business or live there, so it's normal that there are people from the Western Regions among the Tubo people!" Yan Bei replied indifferently. , in his eyes, people in the Western Regions all look like this, and there is nothing strange about it.

"No, this guy is definitely not from the Western Regions!" Li Yin said with certainty.Thanks to the advanced information technology of later generations, whether it is television, television or the Internet, everyone can understand the world outside their own country.Although Li Yin has never been abroad, he can still distinguish the appearance of the races in various places. Although the people in the Western Regions also have high noses and deep eyes, they are more like the Arab races of later generations in Central Asia and West Asia. He is a standard European race, and he can even be sure that the other party should be a Southern European, because that is the birthplace of European civilization, and the contact with Eastern civilization is the most frequent. At the same time, the famous Roman Empire is located in There.

Thinking of being next to Rome, Li Yin's heart suddenly moved, as if he had grasped something crucial, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't think of it, which gave him a very bad premonition.And the next game just confirmed Li Yin's premonition.

The style of the javelin was designed by Li Yin according to the later generations with two sharp ends and a thick middle. This style can prolong the flight time of the javelin in the air and make the throwing distance longer.Of course, it is impossible to use aluminum alloy for the gun body. There is no aluminum available in this era, so the gun body is mainly made of hardwood. The gun points at both ends are made of fine steel. Increase wind resistance.

Although there are many people participating in the javelin throw competition, few people can master the tricks of this new type of project, so most of them can only throw thirty or forty steps, and some can reach more than 50 steps. There is a reasonable reason for the design of the javelin, otherwise most people can throw at most twenty or thirty steps, which is not bad.

However, when the Tubo European came on the field, he shot 72 steps away for the first time, and the second and third times were farther and farther each time, and the final score reached 90 steps. Then this guy's furthest throwing distance has reached more than [-] meters, almost breaking the [-]-meter barrier.

Seeing this situation, Li Yin couldn't help feeling a little regretful. He didn't expect that there were so many talented people in Tubo. They had already won two championships on the first day of the competition. If he had known about this, he should have said more.

Although he regretted it in his heart, since the opponent won the game under the watchful eyes of everyone, he couldn't play tricks, so he had to present the award to the opponent with a half-hearted smile, but after the award, Li Yin specially summoned the opponent, and then with the help of Yan Bei Afterwards, they communicated in Tubo dialect. Although there were many place names and personal names that could not be translated, it still allowed Li Yin to figure out the origin of this person.

Just as Li Yin guessed, the person in front of him is indeed European, and he is indeed from the Eastern Roman Empire. His name is too long for Yan Bei to translate, so he only calls him Xi Luo from the pronunciation, and according to this Xi Luo boast , he was born in the great Crispus family in Rome, and he was also a Roman nobleman. Unfortunately, five years ago, when his army fought against the big cannibal, that is, the newly emerging Arab Empire, unfortunately most of the battle He died, but he was a shameful prisoner, and was later sold to a businessman who was going to the East. He was exiled to Tubo two years ago, and by coincidence, he joined the army of Tubo to quell the "chaos", because he fought bravely, and His personal ability is outstanding, so he was absorbed by Songtsan Gampo's Royal Guards, and this time he came to Datang with the army.

Listening to Yan Bei's translation, Li Yin suddenly realized, he finally thought about what was his bad premonition before the game?In his previous life, he had watched some movies and TV shows about Rome. He remembered that on the battlefield, throwing spears was one of the standard weapons of the Roman army. The general Roman soldiers would undergo special training in throwing spears, and this is what Ciro said. Why can the guy throw the javelin so far? After all, compared to amateurs like Datang, he is the real professional javelin player.Capital Datang 196

Due to limited time and poor translation, Li Yin did not get much information from Xi Luo. He only knew that the Eastern Roman Empire had defeated the Persians more than ten years ago, but now it was completely defeated by the cannibals. A large area of ​​the country was lost, but the power of Dashi was expanding rapidly, and even went to war with Persia and Rome, and all of them had the upper hand, defeating the two ancient countries with a long history.

This information is not available to Li Yin for the time being, but it is always good to know more, so after expressing my gratitude to Xi Luo, the unlucky guy living in a foreign land, I sent him back. Of course, Li Yin did not forget to give him a gift After all, he might be needed for something in the future. rs! ! !
