Chapter 162 Heading Shot
He said he couldn't care less. If he let those people in Lin'an continue to make trouble, half of the country would collapse.
If Sichuan and Shu could not hold out, the Mongolian army would invade and they would lose their taxes, and they would still have to pay for years of war expenses.
What he said made sense, but if Lin'an didn't agree, it would be a big taboo to do it.
After dinner, he went to the Phoenix Room to rest. The woman asked him if he really wanted to go to Guanzhong?
He said that intelligence showed that Kuoduan was going to make a move in Huizhou, which would inevitably affect Guanzhong, so he had to go.
The woman said very gently, "Bring Zhidi along. Her grandmother had written to say that the little girl wanted to come on her own initiative."
Zhao Yulin knew the reason behind this and said that he already had several of them and he didn't want to marry again. He could leave Shunzhidi in Xingyuan Prefecture to learn more and arrange for her to return to Bozhou to do things for the benefit of the village in the future. If she felt that she had a connection with Zhidi, she could keep her by her side as a military discipline inspector.
Zhao Yulin hugged Fenghuang and said with a heavy heart that the expenses of the Shenwei Army were getting bigger and bigger. It was inevitable that some people who made a living would commit crimes and embezzle money, so they had to be supervised more strictly.
He looked at the logistics officer Yu Fuming, who was not wearing a military uniform but a fancy dress today, and felt that he had changed.
Fenghuang told him that the logistics expenses were huge, and logistics required contact with a large number of merchants and shopkeepers, so naturally there would be more oil and water, and it was normal to eat and collect some.
Lao Yu is an old man who came out from the old dock in Yibin, so he shouldn’t be like that.
He said that the Shenwei Army must act in accordance with the law and cannot rely on simple inferences. Military law is ruthless and applies to everyone the same. You must not treat people differently.
The next day, Zhao Yujiang came with a smile and asked him to speak to the students of the prefectural school.
Zhao Yulin refused that kind of lecture-like activity, saying that he had not played football for a long time, so he would just play a game with the college team for fun. He was asked to hang an inspirational slogan in the stands to promote the spirit of struggle.
Later, Zhao Yulin arrived at the stadium and Zhao Yujiang indeed made three big red banners with words like "Friendship first, competition second; dare to fight" on them. In the middle of the stands, a big slogan "Please teach me the ball skills, Third Young Master" was hung.
Zhao Yulin was blaming his brother in his heart. It was obvious that his brother was putting him on the fire.
He shook his head helplessly and changed into the red team's number 7 sports shirt. Fire Phoenix shouted loudly in the stands, encouraging him to score a goal.
He hadn't noticed yet that Shunzhidi beside Fenghuang and Xiao Yan among a group of students were closing their eyes and praying silently that the Third Young Master would score a goal.
With a gong sounded, the two teams started playing. Zhao Yulin and his teammates warmed up, got familiar with each other, and tested each other. In the first half, the score was 1 to 2, with the blue team having a slight advantage.
After halftime, the passion of the two teams was aroused. The players who were afraid of him before were no longer afraid and recognized each other as brothers.
Zhao Yulin said that we didn't cooperate well in the first half, so we should try harder and defeat the opponent.
The teammates gathered in a circle, touched their heads, roared loudly, and dispersed.
The stadium is now packed with people. People around know that the Third Young Master is coming to play football in person, and they are all crowding in to watch the fun. Even the cooks in the academy have come out to watch the game.
Some were shouting "Come on Red Team!", some were shouting "Come on Blue Team!", and some were even shouting "Come on Third Young Master!"
The gong sounded again, and Zhao Yulin ran with his teammates . Seeing the opponent approaching, No. 3 of the red team passed the ball to Zhao Yulin. He saw that his own No. 10 was on the right side of the blue team's goal, but there was no one on the left side, so he immediately boldly thought of scoring a goal from the left side.
Zhao Yulin ran over quickly and made a long pass to the right side of the ball. The ball quickly spun to the left and aimed at the right goal of the blue team, drawing a beautiful arc and floating away. The players all rushed to the right half of the blue team.
However, Zhao Yulin moved to the left while running.
At this time, five or six players had already gathered around the point where the football landed. As both sides fought for it, the football bounced off the ground and flew to the left instantly due to its rotation.
Zhao Yulin happened to catch it from the outside.
Immediate and easy shot.
The blue team's goalkeeper was still on the left side of the goal, but the football was already floating towards the right side of the goal.
Just go in with confidence.
The stadium immediately became lively with shouts of joy of all sizes.
After Zhao Yulin scored a goal with a beautiful shot, the students shouted: "Third Young Master, come on, Third Young Master!"
It's now tied at 2-2. The red team will win if they score one more goal.
Both sides gathered together to discuss tactics, and after a short break they returned to the field.
This time the two sides fought very fiercely, and despite the strict defense, neither side was able to score a goal.
As the incense stick was about to burn out and the game was about to end, the Red Team scored another goal and the whole audience cheered, hoping to see the exciting goal moment.
But the blue team had already returned to defense, and the red team's No. 3 passed the ball to No. 10, and the ball flew to the red team's No. 10 near the right side of the blue team's goal.
By the time No. 10 caught the ball, the blue team had almost blocked all of his paths with their human wall.
Number 10 shot the ball unwillingly.
The blue team player jumped up and headed the football back, and it flew high into the red team camp.
Zhao Yulin saw it all clearly from behind, but it was too late to save the situation.
He watched the football flying towards him, and suddenly thought of a way to head the ball. He suddenly ran as fast as he could, leaped up nearly two meters high, and used all his strength to headbutt the ball.
The football instantly changed direction above everyone's heads and shot into the blue team's goal like a cannonball.
The players and fans on the field were stunned for a moment, and then took a break. The whole stadium cheered again. The players of the red team even shouted and lifted Zhao Yulin up and threw him into the air again and again to celebrate their victory. The captain of the guard was so scared that he quickly entered the field to stop them.
They had seen the header attack technique in the training tutorials at the academy and had practiced it on the training ground, but they had never used it in a match between the two sides.
Today, Zhao Yulin demonstrated a classic header to them live, which was truly eye-opening.
The players from both teams surrounded Zhao Yulin and asked him how he did it.
Ask him to teach you the secret.
He said that this was the result of unity, mutual trust and close cooperation among the brothers in our team. If everyone had not brought the ball to the goal and shot, he would never have gotten this excellent header opportunity.
Zhao Yulin was in great joy and asked Li Chuan to arrange for the players of both teams to go to the newly opened Han Shui Jiao Hua Chicken restaurant to have a drink and drink his Wu Gu Feng, which made these young people really happy all night.
Xiao Yan and a group of girls returned to the dormitory and started chattering. Some said that the third young master was handsome and elegant, some said that the third young master was suave and romantic, and some even covered their chests and sighed bluntly, saying that the third young master was so handsome and they wished they could talk to him or have a meal with him.
Xiao Yan was so proud in her heart. Just having a meal was nothing. The Third Young Master was helping her to vent her anger. When the little girl thought of how Zhao Yulin kissed her and pressed her chest when he saved her, her face immediately became hot and she became red like an apple.
Seeing this, several girls immediately asked her, "Xiao Yan, what's wrong? Do you have a cold or are you missing our Third Young Master?"
Xiao Yan immediately hesitantly said, "No, no, nothing at all." Her little face looked like a ripe apple.
The girl turned around and fell to the head of the bed, burying her head deeply in the quilt...
The next day, Zhao Yulin said goodbye to Fenghuang. Fenghuang said that the child had not been named yet. Would he always be called Shitou?
Zhao Yulin said apologetically, "Let's call him Guangming, Zhao Guangming. I believe our son can bring good luck and has a bright future."
Fenghuang was very happy because her son was named Zhao Guangming. She wanted to write a letter personally to her mother-in-law in Yibin to tell them that her son had a name. She shook the child's little hand and said goodbye to him.
Zhao Yulin's nose felt sore when he looked at the cute baby in Fenghuang's arms. Afraid that Fenghuang didn't want to leave, he waved his hand, jumped onto the saddle, and galloped away.
Shunzhidi stood beside Fenghuang and asked in confusion what happened to the third young master?
Fire Phoenix reminded her that she should call Yulin brother from now on, as that was how they would be close to each other. She said that Yulin brother was reluctant to leave our little Shitou.
After returning, she told Shunzhidi to pack her bags immediately and prepare to go to Jinzhou. Brother Yulin made arrangements and started with the Third Column that she had led, and they enforced military discipline in each column.
Shunzhidi asked her why she had to check her own people first?
Fenghuang glared at her and said, "What do you know?"
In our Shenwei Army, there is no distinction between close and distant relatives. The people who are close to you should take the lead and not bring shame to Brother Yulin.
She asked someone to invite Qiu Ju over and told her that the Third Young Master had given instructions before he left, asking her to secretly investigate the logistics officer Yu Fuming and report any situation immediately to Fengxiang Prefecture.
Mrs. Shun wrote to Fenghuang to tell her that Shunzhidi wanted to marry Zhao Yulin. Fenghuang and Mrs. Shun were from the same clan, so they naturally wanted to help. But Zhao Yulin was afraid. Even though he already had several women, he was still not used to it.
At this time, Huo Fenghuang had already taken Shunzhidi to the academy in a hurry, to ask Zhao Yujiang for people to take to Jinzhou to do propaganda, education and military discipline training. It just so happened that Xiao Yan was chosen. Most of these young people from various places came from wealthy families, and those who could write and count were just right for the job.
In Lin'an, the emperor is burning his brain cells.
When the emperor learned that his illegitimate daughter Zhao Feiyan was missing, he drove Luo Mingqiu out of the palace and told him not to go back until he could find her. Luo Mingqiu felt as if he had been pardoned. He left the palace with his men and ran away, going upstream along the Yangtze River to inquire around.
However, the Queen Mother urgently summoned her son and asked the Emperor to go to her Changshou Palace immediately.
Now, because the emperor failed in the Northern Expedition, the voices for peace in the court continued to grow, and the power of the empress dowager and historians was unprecedentedly strengthened. Especially after Meng Gong of Jingzhou and the Northern Barbarians succeeded in persuading peace, the historians thought they had made a contribution and were appreciated by the emperor again.
After the mother and son sat down, the empress dowager took out a list of officials to be promoted and asked the emperor to promote meritorious officials as a reward and to stabilize the court.
In reality, it was to support her and the historian's confidants.
However, the emperor felt that the meritorious officials of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Administration Office should be rewarded, such as Zhao Yulin and Cao Youwen, who had recovered a lot of lost territories and had solid military achievements.
However, every time there was a court meeting, they would ask for some Guanzi coins to be printed to fool the emperor. The emperor felt helpless and the fire of revival that had just been ignited gradually died out.
He thought that he couldn't do the job well anyway, so he just gave up and let his mother do it.
