GBP Chapter 650: In the face of absolute strength, any trick is nothing
Chapter 650: In the face of absolute strength, any trick is nothing
"That's unreasonable!"
"The Yan Country team actually took first place again!"
In the evening, in a lighted office of the competition organizer, Lieutenant General Kimchi's face was full of anger.
Just half an hour ago, the actual combat competition finally came to an end.
Qin Feng, Zhao Pengfei and Qi Meng, representing the Yan State team, defeated their opponents with difficulty at the last moment and successfully won the final victory.
This broke the long-standing dominance of the American team in the first place in the practical combat assessment.
To put it in the terms of the game, the Yan Country team ended America's killing spree.
Lieutenant General Kimchi asked, "Now, what's the overall score? Which teams are in the top three?"
The chief referee quickly reported: "Currently, the top three are America, Yan Country, and Mao Xiong."
Lieutenant General Kimchi said sternly, "Why did Yan Country manage to reach second place? What's the difference between them and America?"
"The difference is not that big, the scores between the two sides are very close." The chief referee replied.
"So what's the ranking of our pickleball team?"
"On...sixth."
"Sixth? How can it be ranked sixth? Who are the two above it?"
"Cherry blossoms, and peacocks."
There was a snap.
Kimchi-jung slapped the table.
Forget about the top three, after all, the strength is there.
Why can little Sakura ride on the head of their universe country?
And how come those guys who were eating curry and smelling all over got ahead of them?
"How do you act as the chief referee? Have you been blind these days?"
"I wonder if we took sides at the crucial moment, wouldn't our score be ahead of theirs?"
The chief referee muttered to himself, saying that this was the result after biased arguments, and that Sakura and Peacock's players had also cheated in the competition.
This means that the cleverness of the Korean referee canceled each other out.
These words made Lieutenant General Kimchi very angry. Before the game, they had made an analysis model and concluded that the Kimchi team should rank second in this A-Pacific multinational exercise.
But now, he was squeezed to sixth place, and he, as the leader, was very angry.
They failed to seize such a huge home advantage and let others take advantage of them.
Moreover, apart from Yan Country, there are actually Sakura and Peacock. This is simply a great shame and humiliation. How can he explain this to his superiors?
Lieutenant General Kimchi's face darkened. After a long moment of thought, he said, "Tomorrow, there's one final assessment left, and it's also the most crucial one. I've decided to temporarily change the rules!"
The director was stunned for a moment and asked, "Sir, changing the rules at the last minute like this isn't... a bad idea."
Lieutenant General Kimchi raised an eyebrow and said, "What are you afraid of? We are the organizers of the competition. We have the final right to interpret the competition items. If anyone does not want to comply, they can choose to forfeit."
"We are the birthplace of world culture," the director gave a thumbs up, otherwise how could you become a lieutenant general.
If you can't win in terms of military strength, then just tamper with the rules of the game.
If we change the rules of the game to make them more suitable for our side, wouldn't it be easier to win?
......
"What, a temporary change of rules?"
In the evening, the conference room was in an uproar.
The generals from various countries who led their teams to participate in the competition were all furious when they heard that the organizers had forcibly modified the assessment content before the competition.
They are not newbies who are seeing the world for the first time. There must be something fishy about the temporary changes to the rules before the game.
The leader of the Sakura team was the first to stand up and protest: "What do you mean by pickles? Do you think you can't get good grades and can't afford to lose?"
Faji followed closely behind, also saying angrily: "If you can afford it, play. If you can't, forget it. We are all soldiers. The most important thing is to be honest and upright. Even if we lose, we must lose with honor."
Peacock Leader: "We've been watching all the tricks you've been playing these past few days. Now you're changing the rules before the game. You know exactly what you're trying to do."
Admiral Wesson, the leader of America's team, who was smoking a cornstalk pipe, also frowned.
Because of this matter, the Korean side did not inform them in advance or discuss it with them.
Although, this competition is nominally held every two years, and each session is held in a different region.
But behind almost every event, there are shadows of world police.
But this time, Kimchi went a little overboard.
The rules were changed at the last minute without informing them in advance.
This is just like when his son goes out to fool around at night and doesn't come back home, and the father wants to take out the Seven Wolves and give him a good scolding.
During the process, Ge Hongbin kept his hands folded across his chest and did not say a word.
However, these new rules apply to everyone present.
But he always had a feeling that the Koreans were coming for the Yanguo team.
Because, in this competition, the results of teams from other countries have not changed much compared with previous years.
The Yan Country team is the only change at the moment, and without even participating in the last game, they have already left Kimchi and Sakura behind by a large margin.
At this time, whether Kimchi wants to win or please his unlucky father, he has to make some adjustments to his plans.
"Alright, everyone," Lieutenant General Kimchi said, calming his gaze. "These previously added rules are only to fix some bugs in the competition and improve the fairness and impartiality of the competition. I hope everyone will refrain from overthinking and speculating."
"At the same time, in order to enhance the fun and challenge of the competition, we will also announce a small Easter egg before the game that can give extra points."
"It's getting late, and the teams from all over the world are very tired after a long day of competition. Everyone should go back and rest early."
"I hope everyone will face the final test of this tournament with the greatest enthusiasm tomorrow morning."
The sound of stools being pushed clattered was heard, and the generals leading their teams from various countries left one after another.
Only Admiral Wesson of America was still smacking his pipe.
After everyone left, he glanced sideways at the Korean lieutenant general.
"Explain what this temporary change in rules means?"
"Captain Weisen, you know me. We are not changing the rules to target you."
"Oh? Who is that for?"
"Of course, we're targeting the group that poses the most threat."
"..."
Weisen smoked his cigarette and said nothing more.
He stayed just to confirm his guess.
After confirmation, there is no need to stay here any longer, and you have to go back and rest early.
But before leaving, he still asked, "What's that little fun Easter egg you mentioned last time, that will be added before the game?"
Lieutenant General Kimchi smiled mysteriously and said, "Sir, you'll know the answer before tomorrow's game, won't you? If I tell you now, it would be too unfair to the other teams."
Weisen cursed the cunning guy in his heart, and then left in a bad mood.
......
At the same time, Ge Hongbin returned to his dormitory and immediately called Qin Feng and Ge Zhiyong over.
The two will be informed of the temporary changes to the rules and some subsequent matters.
Ge Zhiyong was filled with righteous indignation and felt that these guys were extremely shameless.
"What kind of bullshit rules are these?"
"Are the combat areas and combat methods limited?"
"Is it true that if you don't follow the ball into the goal, you should step with your left foot first or your right foot first? If you step with the wrong foot, it's a foul?"
Qin Feng could tell at a glance that these newly set rules were based on the combat habits of Yan State soldiers.
If you are not careful, you may risk committing a foul.
One foul means a yellow card, two means you're out.
Ge Hongbin looked at Qin Feng seriously: "Are you confident? Tomorrow is the final round. I don't ask for much. I just want to maintain my current position and get second place."
Qin Feng smiled confidently: "Commander, we are here to take first place. No one can stop the dragon from soaring. Tomorrow I will tell everyone that in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are futile."
