C32 Gu Weiyang

When she heard the head coach Wei Xindi arranging his tactics in a hoarse voice, she suddenly felt a little guilty. She turned her head and glanced at the big screen on one side of the wall of the stadium. The score was 10 to 16. It was a little dazzling. She felt that the reason why such a passive situation was formed was that she did not play well and made Wei Xindi anxious.

"Little rabbit!" Wei Xindi shouted her nickname, which made Gu Weiyang shiver.

"Don't get distracted. " Wei Xindi suppressed the anxiety in his heart and said patiently, "But don't get anxious either! Everyone, take your time and chase after them one by one. "

The team members agreed.

This was the first group match of the World Series World Championship for China's second female platoon, which officially began today. Their opponent was also from Asia, the Japanese Women's Row Team Two.

Gu Weiyang and her teammates were originally full of confidence. After all, a few months ago, in the China International Female Racing Invitation Competition, they defeated the Japanese female platoon with a score of 3 to 1. That was the national first-string team of the Japanese female platoon. Thus, Gu Weiyang and the girls all felt that. . . This time, facing the Japanese second line, they would definitely be able to easily win this good start.

However, the sports competition wasn't as simple as "1 + 1 = 2. "

As soon as the game started, Gu Weiyang discovered that the Japanese female platoon two seemed to be familiar with the fighting style and characteristics of the China female platoon two.

Regardless of whether she played evenly with Xia Zhi, played with Fang Han at the third position, or attacked from the back of Yuan Jun's line, the Japanese female platoon two's defensive team had accurately pinpointed their attack trajectory, causing the China female platoon two to return empty handed again and again.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Gu Weiyang was a little "stunned. "

Seeing that the difference in score for the first round was still increasing, Wei Xindi began to switch. She first used Li Xuantong to replace Wang Xiaoqing. She used Lin Yan to exchange for Fang Han. After all, Wang Xiaoqing and Fang Han had participated in the World Championship of the Women's Row not long ago, and they had come back to support the China Second Row, the World Championship of the Women's Row under the age of 23. Their entire bodies seemed to be more exhausted. After that, Wei Xindi used the "two points for three points" tactic adjustment. He let Xiong Xin replace Gu Weiyang. At the same time, He switched from Yuan Jun to Huang Yimeng. For a time, Only Xiao Xiao and Xia Zhi took the initiative to attack.

Gu Weiyang walked to the side of the arena in a somewhat disgruntled and disappointed manner to prepare for the activity zone. However, she heard Wei Xindi shout at her. Gu Weiyang followed Wei Xindi's hand gesture and sat on the bench. Wei Xindi also walked back from the side of the field and sat beside her.

"Are you tired?" Wei Xindi asked.

"I. . . I'm fine. . . " Gu Weiyang stammered. She looked at Wei Xindi. This young commander's face was somewhat flushed. She didn't know if it was because the competition was extremely passive that made her anxious or because her condition was still not much better.

On the bus that had rushed over from Bangkok yesterday, Gu Weiyang and her teammates found Wei Xindi sick and had a fever. However, they did not expect Wei Xindi to insist on going to the Tai King Memorial Stadium in the outskirts of the city with everyone. He had completed the first and last round of training before the competition.

When they walked into the stadium, they found that the air conditioner was not turned on. A hot and humid feeling hit them. The team leader Zhao Yannan quickly coordinated with the staff. Only then did he know that the air conditioner in the stadium had a temporary malfunction and was working hard to repair it. However, everyone's heart ached for Wei Xindi. Instead, they felt that it was a good thing not to turn on the air conditioner.

In a situation where the air conditioner was not turned on for almost an hour, the team members did not have any complaints. The entire training hall was completed in a serious manner. Even if the sweat soaked the training uniform, it would still be able to squeeze out water. However, after the training under the high temperature ended, everyone also felt incomparably exhausted, as if the originally abundant physical energy "battery" had been consumed a lot.

The fatigue on Gu Weiyang's body did not alleviate much even when the first match against the Japanese female platoon two began today. However, when she heard Wei Xindi's concerned question, Gu Weiyang quickly added, "Sis, we're not tired. . . "

Wei Xindi nodded and said, "The arena is too passive now. Why do you think the Japanese female platoon's second team can understand our strategy so clearly? "

Gu Weiyang was stunned.

"I'm guessing that the technical videos and analysis data of our match with the Japanese female platoon in the invitation match in Yongdong Port must have been obtained by the Japanese female platoon and thoroughly researched by them. " Wei Xindi answered his own question.

Gu Weiyang immediately understood.

"So, little rabbit. . . This match is a battle of encounters for us, but for the Japanese female platoon, They are fully prepared and sharpening their blades. We need more changes, such as. . . The little rabbit, as the tactical 'commander' on the field, I'm counting on you!" Wei Xindi said and pulled Gu Weiyang's hand.

Gu Weiyang realized that Wei Xindi's palm was still burning hot.

"Sis, leave it to me. . . " Gu Weiyang said.

At this time, the sound of the whistle that ended the first match rang out. Gu Weiyang and Wei Xindi looked at the scoreboard at the same time.

15 to 25. China's female platoon two lost a full 10 points.

There must be a change! From the start of the second match, Gu Weiyang's mind was filled with Wei Xindi's words.

"Give Xia Zhi's ball half a beat faster. . . " Wei Xindi shouted from the side of the court. After he shouted, he coughed violently.

Gu Weiyang activated it even earlier. However, Li Mengxi's transmission this time was not very accurate. Although Gu Weiyang's transmission to Summer's Descent was fast, it was still a bit off. Xia Zhi's fingers had just touched the volleyball. Originally, he had attacked from the fourth position, but he had become a harmless ball that swept across the net.

The members of the Japanese female volleyball Team Two were extremely focused. Before the ball even landed, they organized a fast ball in front of the net in the air. Fang Han's block of the net couldn't keep up with the opponent's speed. The Japanese female platoon two once again took the lead in this round.

Gu Weiyang patted her chest and said loudly to her teammates: "It's my responsibility, my responsibility" After saying that, she turned to look at Wei Xindi at the side of the field.

Wei Xindi only said "it's nothing," then he seemed to be unable to say anything else.

Gu Weiyang really wanted to get off the stage and ask Wei Xindi in detail how she should change the rhythm of her attacks. She thought that if it were any other time, Wei Xindi would definitely be on the side of the stage to give her a good warning. But now, Wei Xindi himself was suffering from the pain of a high fever.

Gu Weiyang felt that she couldn't completely rely on her coach to guide her every game on the court. Since Weixin Di had already pointed out the direction, she had to rely on herself to solve the problem.

However, the more she thought about it, the more she thought about it. The volleyball in her hand became more and more unpredictable. Xiao Xiao's hemisphere was blocked, Fang Han's super attack was out of bounds, Xia Zhi's and Great Qing's attacks were repeatedly blocked, and Yuan Jun's attack from the back was even caught under the net belt. . . The chaos of the attack and pass coordination resulted in continuous attack mistakes. The second match of China's female platoon was also in imminent danger.

The beeping device finally rang out. Gu Weiyang saw Huang Yimeng holding the number 15 substitution card and standing at the side of the field. She secretly sighed and ran over, completing the substitution with Huang Yimeng.

"Sis. . . I'm sorry. . . I messed up everyone. " Gu Weiyang said, biting her lips.

"Little bunny, it's because I didn't explain it to you, nor did I arrange it properly with everyone. " Wei Xindi gently patted Gu Weiyang's head and said calmly, "Calm down first and look at the progress of the competition. "

Huang Yimeng's substitute had at least made some beneficial changes to the attacking rhythm of the China female platoon's second team. However, even though the members of the second female platoon were chasing after them in the following matches, the gap in the starting score was too big. 18 to 25, China's second female platoon lost another round.

Wei Xindi gathered his team members together and said, "Ladies, Since we've already fought to this point, let's not have any more burdens. It's obvious that the opponent has thoroughly researched us. And their speed of switching between offense and defense, including their defensive abilities. We haven't even gotten used to it yet. In the third round, we have to change the rhythm. This isn't an easy thing for the little rabbit. Therefore, the attackers must use their own abilities. Help the Second Inheritor make up for it. The next round of the ball did not require the attacker to play according to the position and rhythm of the second ball. Instead, the attacker had to play around the second ball. The two players shouted and reminded each other to maintain a high level of concentration. We have never tried this before. But now, we can't stop trying. Does everyone understand? "

When Gu Weiyang heard this, she was stunned.

Delivering the "cannonballs" for the attacker was the responsibility and duty of a second pass. Even when Gu Weiyang was at the Club's Binhai Female Row, Whether her teammates were older or older, they all treated her as a "little sister" or even a "little princess. " However, she was, after all, the big sister of the attacker who had won many league championships and won the National Games. She was in training and in competitions. She would put all her effort into passing every ball to them. The aunt of the former China female volleyball player once told her about the best second pass. Even if the attacker closed his eyes, he could still firmly catch the ball and score.

But this time, Wei Xindi actually wanted the entire team's assaulters to attack her as the second pass. How could Gu Weiyang not understand? This unusual tactical arrangement was not because Wei Xindi had lost confidence in her accuracy. Instead, it was because of his great trust and encouragement towards her.

"We understand, Sister Wei!" Xia Zhi agreed loudly, then turned to Gu Weiyang and said, "Little bunny, don't worry, just pass it. As long as you think it's a good opportunity, it'll reach the fourth position. Even if I have to risk my life, I'll still catch your pass! "

Fang Han also said, "Little rabbit, the rhythm of the fast ball in front of the net is all up to you. I believe you! "

"Yeah! Don't worry, little rabbit, pass it on!"

"Little rabbit, the bolder you are, the more you can mess up their rhythm. What's the big deal? Let's go all out!"

Her teammates were all talking and encouraging her, making Gu Weiyang's tears almost burst out.

She still wanted to say something, but the short one-minute break was already over.

"Let's go!" Wei Xindi said, lightly slapping Gu Weiyang on the back.

Although the girls from China's female platoon were young, they were still the cream of the crop among their peers. Whether it was in terms of physical condition or intelligence, they all had the same standard. After Wei Xindi's guidance, everyone quickly found the main point. Although there were one or two attack transmitting mistakes in the beginning of the third round, However, everyone's trust in Gu Weiyang remained unchanged. Naturally, the tempo of the second female platoon in China underwent a huge change.

At this moment, it was the members of the second female platoon in Japan who weren't used to it.

As they watched the gap between the scores continue to widen, the expressions on their members' faces became increasingly blank. The head coach of the second female platoon called for a timeout twice in a row, but he was still unable to turn the tide.

25 to 20, China's female platoon No. 2 won a round.

After a break between the rounds, Wei Xindi asked his team members to discuss the reason for their victory and to think about how they should play the fourth round. From the corner of his eye, Wei Xindi noticed that the Japanese female rehearsal coaches were gathered together. They were pointing and gesticulating on the tablet in the hands of the head coach.

Wei Xindi looked at the stands again. In the video area that the organizers had arranged for the teams, two or three staff members in Japanese uniforms were recording the match. They were busy on their laptops. Wei Xindi understood that they were currently analyzing the real-time technology of the third game. They were looking for a new way to deal with China's female platoon two.

On China's female platoon number two side, in the stands, Only Zhao Yinan and Yang Fei were guarding a camera on a tripod.

Gu Weiyang noticed a trace of gloominess flash across Wei Xindi's face. She still felt that she had not done well enough. She timidly walked over and looked at Wei Xindi, waiting for him to say something.

"Little rabbit. . . " Wei Xindi smiled and said, "Isn't this game a lot more comfortable?"

"Mm!" Gu Weiyang nodded fiercely.

"Actually, whether it's the Second Inheritor attacking around the attacker or the attacker attacking around the Second Inheritor, I don't think it should be the most ideal combination of attacks. " Wei Xindi said softly, "In my opinion, the most ideal combination of attacks is to be able to communicate with each other with one look and know what each other wants to do. "

Gu Weiyang's eyes widened as she listened excitedly to Wei Xindi's words.

"So, little rabbit, do your best! I feel like this day will come very soon. You and everyone can reach this level of tacit understanding. " Wei Xindi said.

"Mm!" Gu Weiyang nodded even harder.

The fourth round began.

As Wei Xindi had expected, the short inter-office pause allowed the Japanese female platoon two to analyze the flaws and weaknesses of China's female platoon two through the meticulous computer system. Then, the members of the Japanese female platoon two used their solid foundation as a foundation to compete with the China female platoon two.

The score had been tied since the start of this round. Until the end of this round, the competition had reached its climax. The Japanese female platoon No. 2 had actually taken the lead with a score of 24 to 23, which was also the match point of this round.

Gu Weiyang did not look at the scoreboard. She looked at her teammates on the field and found that none of them were slacking off.

"Good attack!" Gu Weiyang shouted at everyone.

The referee's whistle sounded. The Japanese female volleyball team two served a ball. After all, the leading Japanese female volleyball team two had the "capital" to "go all out in one serve. "

" Little potato! "

Xia Zhi, Wang Xiaoqing, and Yuan Jun practically shouted at the same time.

"I'll do it! I'll do it! I'll do it! " As Li Mengxi shouted, she adjusted her position and posture in the direction of the volleyball.

The volleyball was picked up by Li Mengxi. Although it had a little impact on the net, its speed was still within the range of Gu Weiyang's control.

Gu Weiyang looked at the ball from the corner of her eye and saw the other side of the net. It was unknown if it was because the match was coming to an end, but the members of the Japanese female platoon two seemed to relax a little. Near the three-meter line, there was actually a gap in their defense.

Gu Weiyang had an idea. She looked at Wang Xiaoqing, who was in the fourth position in front of her.

Wang Xiaoqing was ready to jump and slam the ball, and with a wave of her arms, she jumped high into the air.

The vice-captain of the Japanese female platoon, who was blocking the net, also jumped up with Wang Xiaoqing.

This was an excellent opportunity.

Gu Weiyang laughed in his heart. He did not pass the ball to Wang Xiaoqing, but turned his wrist and used the speed and angle of the ball to hang the ball towards the gap in defense in the Japanese female platoon's field.

Got it! Gu Weiyang was happy! The moment her feet touched the ground, she wanted to run over and celebrate with her teammates for this key point to save the race. However, before she could start running, Gu Weiyang saw Xia Zhi waving his arms at her from the back. He shouted, "There's more! There's more!"

"What 'there's more'?" Gu Weiyang said. Just as she was about to ask, she suddenly realized that the situation wasn't good. It turned out that the second time she hung the ball, it hadn't even completely fallen to the ground when it was saved by the Japanese female volleyball player, Yu Yue. . . The game was still in progress. The ball, there was still more!

The Japanese female platoon's secondary attackers and secondary defenders were in the middle of the net. By the time Gu Weiyang reacted and turned around to block the ball, it was already too late.

Under the counterattack of the Japanese female volleyball team two, the volleyball flew past Gu Weiyang's ear with a "whoosh. " Immediately after, Gu Weiyang heard a "dong" sound from the floor behind her.

The referee's whistle was also blown.

Gu Weiyang immediately knelt on the ground. She was stunned. She didn't think that she would make such a serious mistake at the last moment of the match.

Gu Weiyang thought, if she passed this ball to Wang Xiaoqing, if she could still seriously watch her opponent's reaction after hanging the ball twice, then she would be able to watch her opponent's reaction in front of the net. But all of the hypotheses were no longer valid. The game was over, and the Japanese women's second team got a good start with a score of three to one.

Gu Weiyang let her tears fall. However, she didn't dare to raise her head and look at her teammates who were still standing on the field at the end of the fight.

Finally, Xia Zhi walked over and wanted to help Gu Weiyang up. Gu Weiyang shook her head vigorously, unwilling to get up. Xiao Xiao also walked over. She wanted to carry Gu Weiyang up, but Gu Weiyang gently nudged Xiao Xiao with his arm. She was still unwilling to get up.

With tears welling up in her eyes, Gu Weiyang saw someone standing in front of her.

Wei Xindi let the other members stretch and relax. He squatted down and looked at Gu Weiyang.

"Little rabbit. . . " Wei Xindi said softly, "No matter how sad it is, the competition is over. What, you just sit here and don't move. Don't you want the next match to begin as scheduled?"

Gu Weiyang raised her head and only said the word "sister" before sobbing silently.

"Alright. " Wei Xindi pulled Gu Weiyang's arm and pulled her up. He took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped her tears as he said, "This is only the first match. If we lose, we'll go back and summarize. It's no big deal. "

"But. . . Sister. . . Whoever loses. . . Can't lose to Japan. . . " Gu Weiyang sobbed as she said.

"Who said that!" Wei Xindi said loudly, "If there's a win in a competitive sports competition, then there's a loss. If we lose, it means that we are inferior to our opponents in some aspects. As long as we find where these problems lie, we can think of a way to solve them, and we will be able to constantly improve and improve. Next time, we won't lose again. "

Seeing that Gu Weiyang had calmed down a little, Wei Xindi picked up his coat and helped her put it on: "Let's go. There's still a post-match press conference to attend. As the captain, no matter how you feel, you shouldn't be absent from the post-match press conference. "

Gu Weiyang followed Wei Xindi and Yang Fei to the press conference hall. When they were almost at the door, Wei Xindi suddenly stopped. She turned her head to look at Gu Weiyang again, while carefully wiping away the tear stains on Gu Weiyang's face. She whispered in her ear: "When you speak later, remember: You absolutely mustn't blame yourself for the loss, much less your teammates. Do you understand? "

Although Gu Weiyang didn't quite understand why Wei Xindi had to specifically explain it to him. She still nodded her head.

Walking into the news conference room, the captain, head coach, and many other reporters of the Japanese female platoon were all waiting there. Gu Weiyang sat beside Wei Xindi, still thinking about what Wei Xindi had just said to her.

"Now, let's ask the head coach of the China team, Ms. Wei, to evaluate this match. " The host said in English.

Wei Xindi cleared her slightly hoarse voice and did not use the English that she was good at. Instead, he said in Mandarin, "First of all, congratulations to the Japanese female platoon, Team Two, for winning the first place in this year's competition. We lost this match, but I think. . . My teammates performed very well. They have overcome their journey, although they are also very tired. But I can throw myself into today's competition. My team members didn't give up when the score fell behind. I also didn't lose my fighting spirit. I am very grateful to the girls for their hard work. So I thought, The responsibility of losing this match is entirely on me. . . "

Hearing that Wei Xindi had placed all the blame on her, Gu Weiyang immediately understood what Wei Xindi had just said to her.
