Demon Golden Boots

Chapter 646 Father Liu of Fourteen Children

After dinner, Liu Yun and Hao Hexi came to Coventry Zijin Hotel.

Fourteen young Huaguo players live here temporarily.

Tomorrow they will officially live in the Coventry team player dormitory.

Almost all Premier League players have their own mansions.Coventry's players are different.

As the team is getting more and more attention and the club's revenue is getting better and better, the weekly salary of Coventry players is also rising.The weekly salaries of young people like Bai Rifeng, Zhao Kaixuan, Li Fanghua, and Hess have reached tens of thousands of pounds.

However, Liu Yun, who is the leader of the team, set a rule for them: except for those who live in Coventry or are married, all live in the player dormitory!

In the team, only Billy, a native of Coventry, and Liu Yun and Manla, two married men, don't live in the player dormitory.

The fourteen young players never imagined that on their first day in the UK, they would be greeted by an old lieutenant—an ageless legend in European football!
The children were so restrained that they didn't know what to say to their idol, Uncle Liu Yun.

Liu Yun said: "Children, you have traveled thousands of miles across the ocean from Huaguo to England. What are you doing here? Let me tell you, you are here to practice Taoism! Ricoh Stadium is the place for you to practice Taoism! Hone yourself , Improve yourself! The man is determined to go out of the hometown, and he will not pay back if he fails to learn! When you become a real professional player, you can be proud to say. When I was a teenager, in order to pursue my dream, I stayed away from home. Being away from your loved ones, in a foreign country - it was all worth it!"

A dozen young players were deeply moved by the idol's words.They applaud collectively.

Gradually, the children were no longer restrained, and they talked about their own dreams.

"I'm a Liverpool fan. I hope one day I can stand on the turf of Anfield and say loudly: This is Anfield Stadium!"

"I'm a Manchester United fan. My biggest dream is to win the Big Ears Cup for Manchester United like Uncle Liu Yun!"

"I'm a Coventry fan! When I grow up, I want to be like the old lieutenant and lead a team that no one is optimistic about to create miracles!"

"I, I am a fan of Huaguo Men's Football. I hope that one day, I can help our men's football break out of Asia and participate in the World Cup!"

"Cut~"

As soon as the Xiaoguo football fan said this, his companions scoffed.

But Liu Yun said: "Don't think that liking our national team is stupid. You have to work hard and accomplish what I have no chance to accomplish-change our national team. Let the five-star red flag fly again on the stage of the World Cup. Your Hao Guidance, participated in the World Cup 20 years ago! We asked him to talk about the feeling of participating in the World Cup."

Hao Hexi smiled wryly: "How do you feel? Having your bald head shaved nine balls, how can you feel when you are out of the game in embarrassment? Children, Uncle Hao has been looking forward to our national football team being able to do something in the World Cup finals all his life. I hope you can Make this dream come true for me."

The next day, Liu Yun gave the Coventry first-team players a task.

Fourteen teenagers from China have just come to the UK, and they must not adapt to life.Liu Yun recalled the glorious tradition of "one gang, one" and "one belt, one" in the Bayi team.

For each player, bring a junior player.Helping them adapt to life in the UK and training at Coventry FC.

Today's players like Bai Rifeng, Zhao Kaixuan, and Li Fanghua are not ordinary players who are not well-known.They are the supernovas of the Premier League's biggest dark horse.The youths of Huaguo have been paying attention to them for a long time.

This arrangement made the teenagers very excited.

Premier League match day.

Hao Hexi brought the teenagers to the Ricoh Stadium.Coventry VS Crystal Palace!
The teenagers had only seen Premier League games on TV before.Only when they are really on the scene, they know how shocking the atmosphere of the Premier League is!
"When you go through life, it's a long, long way. Through disaster, we'll keep going. Kid wearing this sky blue jersey, keep going, Coventry! Although you have been through disaster, although the road is still far away Long, makes your heart beat. Though you're so tired, we keep going. O glory to Coventry, sky blue shirt! Coventry! Coventry!"

The scene of tens of thousands of fans singing "Go Forward, Coventry" in unison at the Ricoh Stadium deeply shocked the [-] Chinese teenagers.

The stadium DJ's commentary came from the stadium sound: "Welcome to the Ricoh Stadium! This is the Ricoh Stadium of the old lieutenant! The Ricoh Stadium of the Coventry people!"

Tens of thousands of fans burst into cheers.

"This is the real football game!"

"When will I be able to stand on this field as a player?"

The children sighed.

Game start!
Facing the relegation underdog Crystal Palace, Coventry showed no mercy at home!

In the 22nd minute, the old lieutenant Liu Yun passed three defensive players in a row at the front of the Crystal Palace penalty area, pulling the ball horizontally and swinging the shooting angle!Kick off!Full moon scimitar!The ball went straight to the upper right corner of the Crystal Palace goal!
The ball went in! 1:0!

"Yeah~~~" The cheers of tens of thousands of fans at the Ricoh Stadium made more than a dozen Huaguo teenagers deafen their ears!
These children saw that the old lieutenant, the legend of the Ricoh Stadium, walked to the center of the field like a real hero, and celebrated another goal with the old lieutenant machine gun!
The old lieutenant-style machine gun fire once again pushed the atmosphere of the Ricoh Stadium to a climax!
The singing of "There is only one old lieutenant in the world" floated over the Ricoh Stadium.

The little players were fascinated by it.

Leading 1:0, Coventry did not put down the butcher knife!

In the 35th minute, Bai Rifeng received a wonderful pass from Liu Yun in the penalty area and succeeded in a short shot, 2:0!

"Yeah~" Ricoh Stadium boiled again!The blue wave of people is set off, and the scene is like waves within waves, waves hitting waves, and one wave is higher than another.

Hao Hexi said to the teenagers: "Did you see that? The man who scored the goal on the field is Bai Rifeng! He is only 19 years old this year! He is only four or five years older than you! As long as he works as hard, as persistently as he does, and as forever Don't give up! Four or five years later, you can also become players like him!"

After scoring the goal, Bai Rifeng ran to Liu Yun and hugged the assister Liu Yun.

In the second half, Coventry made persistent efforts.

In the 57th minute, Tietamanla's header helped the team lead Crystal Palace 3-0.

In the 68th minute, the old lieutenant used a nearly zero-degree shot to seal the victory for Coventry! 4:0!

Every goal of the Coventry team and every overwhelming cheer from the fans deeply shocked the Huaguo teenagers.

"Look, they are off, they really look like heroes!"

"I can't wait to grow up! When I am 20 years old, I will be cheered by tens of thousands of people in the middle of the Ricoh Stadium!"

After the game, there is a rest day as usual.

Liu Yun invited fourteen teenagers, Hao Hexi, to his home, and cooked an authentic Chinese national dish for the children.

Liu Yun said to the children: "You are welcome. This will be your home from now on. If you want, you can treat me as your godfather. Treat my wife as your godmother."

Isabella said: "I am in Handong, Huaguo, and there are thousands of Huaguo children. Thousands of children call me Isabella's mother. In the future, I will have fourteen more Huaguo children."

"Papa Liu, Mama Isabella."

The mouths of the teenagers are very sweet.

Everyone was seated, and Liu Yun told everyone while eating: "You have entered the Coventry youth training camp. You are all part of the Coventry club. To be a competent Coventry player, you must first understand the Coventry team. Wentry is a city. Only by understanding this city can you integrate into this city and into the Ricoh Stadium."

Liu Yun talked eloquently: "Coventry has a well-developed textile industry. The population is small, more than 30 people. Coventry is remembered by the world not because of the developed textile industry, but because of the famous Coventry University in 1940. bombing.

In 1940, the British intelligence agency had already mastered the military communication code of the German government - Engel code. In November 1940, the United Kingdom learned that the German Air Force would launch a large-scale air raid on Coventry by deciphering the German military's telegram. "

"Already know that the enemy is coming to bomb, the people of Coventry should all run away from the city, right?"

asked a young player.

Liu Yun shook his head: "No! When British Prime Minister Churchill heard the news, he was stunned at first, then angry - and finally silent. He did not take any defensive or diverting measures against Coventry."

"Isn't this just watching the people in Coventry being bombed?" Another young player said.

Liu Yun said: "Good question."Then he explained: "In that year, the iron heel of Japan's invasion of Germany swept across Europe. The British tried their best to get information from Germany. The Germans were full of confidence in their military code, the Engel code, and believed that the Engel code was The world's most sophisticated, impossible-to-decipher code.

The talented British mathematician Turing led a team to crack the Engel code after exhausting their efforts.It can be said that after the Engel code was deciphered, every move of the German army was under the control of the British army.

If you transfer the residents of Coventry and strengthen Coventry's air defenses as soon as you receive the news, it is tantamount to telling the Germans: We have deciphered your Engel code!Then the Germans would change the password without hesitation.All the hard work the British had put into deciphering the code would be in vain.

Churchill weighed the pros and cons, and believed that if the city of Coventry was allowed to make sacrifices, it would be exchanged for Britain's full knowledge of all German military operations in the future!So he decided to sacrifice Coventry! "

A 15-year-old player asked: "What happened after that?"

Liu Yun said: "One night in November, hundreds of German bombers flew over the English Channel in batches and carried out a brutal bombing of Coventry for a full 11 hours. The British called it 'the horror ghost of Coventry'. Night'. The entire Coventry was razed to the ground and turned into ashes. There were countless casualties and corpses everywhere. Coventry also became the city with the most serious losses in World War II.

In British slang, there is a "go to Coventry" - go to Coventry.It means clearly knowing that others do something with great risk, but not advising them and just standing by and doing nothing! "

The 15-year-old continued to ask: "Isn't Coventry razed to the ground? What about the city now?"

Liu Yundao: "Good question! After the war, the people of Coventry picked up picks and shovels, cleaned up the ruins, and rebuilt the city from the ruins. Countless buildings and wide streets were built, and commercial streets and rings around the city were built. The fast lane has opened up a large area of ​​green space, parks and squares. Coventry has reappeared in front of the world with a modern look. It is known as the phoenix of nirvana in the ashes.

Children, don't think that this history is too far away from you.Only by understanding this period of history can we understand the city and the people in this city!The spirit of this city is also the spirit of the Coventry team - never give up, never give in!

After dinner, Liu Yun led the children to the Coventry Bombing Memorial Square.

On the monument in the center of the square, William Henry's poem "Invincible" is engraved.

Liu Yun carefully translated for the children in Chinese:

"Through the night that covers me, I see layers of darkness. Thank God for giving me an unconquerable soul. Even if I am held tightly by hell, I will not fear, and I will never give in! Severe blows of fate, My head was covered with blood, but my head was raised.

Beyond the world of anger and sorrow looms more than the shadow of fear.Also, face future threats.You will find that I have nothing to fear!

No matter how narrow the gate of fate is, and no matter what kind of punishment one bears.I am the master of my destiny.I am the commander of my soul! "

Hao Hexi said to Liu Yun: "Old Liu, the children are still too young. Even if they can understand the literal meaning, they cannot understand the spiritual connotation of this poem."

Liu Yun smiled at Hao Hexi: "I will understand! I will definitely understand! They will grow up one day. When they grow up, they will understand this poem and the spiritual connotation of this century-old club in Coventry! "

After sending the children back to the team dormitory, Hao Hexi said to Liu Yun, "Old Liu, I'm going back to Zhujiang tomorrow. The children will be counted on you!"

Liu Yundao: "Don't worry, Director Hao. These children left their homes at a young age and came to England to pursue their football dreams. How difficult it is! I will definitely treat them as my own children!"

Hao Hexi sighed: "Sometimes I really envy them. There is such a good opportunity to play in Europe."

More than 20 years ago, Hao Hexi was in the limelight in the Liangang Thousand Team, and many European clubs offered him an olive branch.However, due to domestic pressure, several trips to Europe that were close at hand failed to take place.When he has the opportunity to play abroad-he is 34 years old and not in shape.

This is the regret of Hao Hexi's life.

Liu Yun said: "Things are impermanent. I now have convenient conditions and can provide opportunities for young people in China. I will spare no effort to help them! The improvement of a country's football level does not lie in the number of heads in the association. These children ——is the future of Huaguo football!"

Many years later, the Premier League powerhouse Coventry team was appraised by the media as "China's second national team".Behind this is the selfless help of the old lieutenant Liu Yun to the Huaguo players.

Of course, these are things to follow.
