Chapter 195: Battle against Spain
After the day off, everyone started intense training again. Three days later, the Chinese Dragons will face the challenge of the Spanish Royal Matador at their home court.
The Spanish team is not weak at all in Group A, ranking third in the group with a record of 8-2, second only to the Chinese Dragons and the German Iron Wolves, which currently maintain a record of 9-1. A strong contender for qualifying spots.
At the same time, the Spanish team is also a very special team among all participating teams, because their car, the Black Big Mac Beyond, is the only heavy-duty car among all the cars in this conference. Racing.
In Spain, due to the influence of matador culture, Spanish children are naturally fond of heavy racing. Therefore, when Kurosawa took Gen Kondo to train and compete all the way in Europe, and then arrived in Spain , it felt like going home. They broke into the circle of the top drivers of the Spanish team with a proud attitude, and strongly won two World Cup places.
Before the game, Kurosawa carefully polished the chassis in his hand with a file in the workshop of his training ground. On the table at hand, there were three completed chassis, while Gen Kondo and the Spanish team captain Ka Silas watched eagerly from the side, not daring to make a sound for fear of disturbing Kurosawa.
Finally, Kurosawa breathed a long sigh of relief and put down the chassis in his hand. Casillas and Gen Kondo who were watching also breathed a sigh of relief. Before Kurosawa picked up the fifth chassis, Perhaps in order to lighten the atmosphere, Casillas said: "As expected of you, Kurosawa, this kind of machine cannot guarantee precise work, but you can actually complete it so perfectly with your hands."
< br>"There is no way. The aerodynamic structure on the original chassis of the Black God of War Beyonder is not suitable for the super racing car Black Big Mac Beyond, which is designed to combine the characteristics of the Big Mac." Kurosawa said helplessly.
"It's not that exaggerated. Considering Spain's industrial level, it is easy to make such a chassis." Kurosawa said, picking up the fifth chassis, "But our team's funds are not very sufficient. , so it’s good to save a little bit.”
Unlike most European teams, which either have big sponsors or have the whole country behind them, the Spanish Mini Racing Association is not too concerned about this WGP. Because before Kurosawa and Gen Kondo joined, Casillas was the only one in Spain who had the ability to make a name for himself in the European mini racing scene. Moreover, Casillas was limited by the performance of his car and his ranking in Europe. It's just hovering around ten.
It was difficult to get the Spanish Mini Racing Association to pay attention to such results, so they allocated a sum of funds. After Kurosawa and Kondo Gen joined, they developed their team's new car, the Black Big Mac. ·After surpassing it, it is almost used. In the case of insufficient funds, even some accessories can only be modified with standard parts provided by WGP official for free.
But who knew that after Kurosawa and Gen Kondo joined, and Casillas had a new car worthy of his strength, it would be so fierce! He rushed to third place in the group without saying a word.
“I heard that Real Madrid is already discussing sponsorship with the association,” Casillas said. “With sponsorship, we don’t have to be so tight.”
"Really? Then is my daily lollipop..." Hearing this, Kondo Yuan's eyes lit up.
"Don't even think about it. The doctor said that you can only eat so much every day to suppress your sweet craving." Kurosawa expressionlessly rejected his little brother's proposal.
In the training base of the Chinese Dragon Team, everyone was also discussing the tactics of this game, because it was at their home court and they could choose the competition format themselves. When facing a strong enemy like the Spanish team, Dr. Chen It was proposed to choose the relay race, which is the competition format that everyone is best at, to gain a foothold, but everyone felt that the Spanish team was the best opponent to test their progress in teamwork during this period, so they unanimously chose the team points competition format.
After confirming the competition format, it’s time to formulate the game’s tactics.
“We must take the lead from the beginning of this game.” Gao Xiaoman said, “The opponents are all heavy-duty racing cars. Once they get the advantage, if we want to break through, it will be difficult. It may be higher than breaking through the German team's blockade."
Gao Xiaoman is right. When they fell behind before, their breakthrough was caused more by their respective cars. The special airflow interferes with the opponent's blockade formation, but the members of the Spanish team use heavy-duty racing cars, which are inherently resistant to the airflow generated by their cars, and the heavy-duty racing cars with steel and iron bones are not afraid of them. Forcibly breaking through, although the body materials of the five cars of the Chinese Dragon Team are all hard ZMC, if there is a collision, they will definitely not be damaged, but they will definitely suffer because of the lack of weight of the car.
So, the tactical tone of this game is how to get enough advantage at the beginning, and how to defend the opponent's breakthrough after gaining the advantage.
When we got here, everyone reacted. It seemed that everyone was really at a disadvantage in this regard.
In previous games, when facing a weak team, they had no chance to break through. But when facing a strong team, they are usually the one who needs to break through, but their success rate of breakout is relatively high. It's just high, but everyone's experience is indeed a little less in terms of advantage blockade.
"Captain, you should be familiar with the big man in their team." Gao Xiaoman pulled out some Spanish team game videos, "This guy's breakthrough ability is ridiculously strong, no matter what he faces No matter what kind of blockade, like a beast, he can instinctively find the best breakthrough route."
Gao Xiaoman opened the video, and Kondo Geng was screaming and inserting into the opponent's blockade like a sharp sword. , the scene of disrupting the opponent's blockade line was repeated repeatedly. Except for the German team, almost every opponent was disrupted by him, and then Casillas and Kurosawa took advantage of the chaos to lead the team. Turn defeat into victory.
"How did he do it? Even with the assistance of AI, it is impossible to accurately find the weak points of the opponent's line every time." Chen Xiaohu was dumbfounded. Kondo Gen in the video Although he looks like he is suffering from a disease, he can accurately find the weakness of the opponent's line every time, just like a natural hunter.
"Who knows?" Lin Shu shrugged. Whether as an opponent or later as a friend, Kondo Yuan's natural ability made him feel incredible.
"It seems that our opponent is very powerful this time." Huo Yuesheng said eagerly. Although he saw the strength of Kondo Genna, no one proposed to switch back to the relay race. Kondo Gento showed The strength made everyone excited.
"Then, in the past few days, our training will focus on how to block the opponent's breakthrough." Lin Ye said.
“But, how to practice this?” Huo Yuesheng asked curiously.
“This is simple.” Dr. Chen smiled and picked up the eliminated Phantom Blood Bat and Terrifying Tiger from the cabinet, “I will be your sparring partner.”
In the next few days, everyone's opponents became the phantom blood bats and terrifying tigers operated by Dr. Chen.
Although the performance of these two cars is far inferior to that of the updated Magic Bat and Wind Chaser, Dr. Chen can drive it during training. It is necessary to simulate the situation of the competition, but the two cars in Dr. Chen's hands can be replenished at any time. Moreover, the chips of these two cars record the running methods of Huo Yuesheng and Chen Xiaohu. In other words, during training At that time, what the five of them had to face was basically Huo Yuesheng, who had played the trick with the help of Chen Xiaohu, who had played the trick.
At the beginning of the training, this combination really confused everyone. Even if the performance of the car was different, the driver could not withstand the unlimited supply. However, under the influence of this kind of training, the cooperation of the Chinese Dragon Team in the blockade has improved by leaps and bounds.
The time soon came to the game day.
In the waiting area of the Tokyo Dome, Lin Tie also saw Kurosawa and Kondo Gen, whom he had not seen for a few days.
"Ah Shu, we have won this victory." After seeing Lin Shu, Kurosawa said forcefully with a smile on his lips.
"You are very confident, but we are not prepared to give up this victory." Lin Ye chuckled.
"Lin, nice to meet you." At this time, the tall brown-haired boy at the front of the Spanish team came over and stretched out his hand to Lin Shu, "Finally, I have a chance to talk to Kurosawa. I have played against a driver that A Yuan has spoken highly of."
"Nice to meet you!" Lin said. Casillas had a very good impression on him and seemed to be a very reliable person. .
At this time, the voice of the Four-wheel Drive Fighter calling the players to enter had already sounded in the sky above the venue, and the two stopped communicating, waiting for the Four-wheel Drive Fighter to call their names.
At the same time, the CCTV live broadcast also started as usual. Today’s commentators are Su Fan and Director Zhang.
“Welcome to the WGP World Mini Racing World Cup. Today’s match is between the Chinese Dragon Team and the Spanish Matador Team. The two teams are currently ranked first and third in Group A respectively. This This game can be said to be a rare strong dialogue," Su Fan said.
“But there is one very interesting thing about this game.” Director Zhang said.
"Oh? What do you say?" Su Fan gave him timely compliments.
“The tactics of these two teams in the team competition are very similar, which is to preserve their strength in the first half, and then rely on their strong breakthrough level in the second half to break through the opponent’s blockade and turn defeat into victory. But in today’s game, it is destined to be One side will become the defensive side, and this game should be very exciting," said Director Zhang.
At this time, as the four-wheel drive fighters called out the names of Kondo Gen and Kurosawa, the two of them also walked out of the player tunnel and waved to the elders in their hometown.
"Now on the stage are player Kondo Gen and the Spanish team's vice-captain, Kurosawa Tai. They were both Neon mini racers before, and they have a record of playing against Lin De." Su Fan introduced to the audience, “Both of them are very capable drivers, and it is generally believed that their joining is the key to the Spanish team’s transformation. Moreover, the cars currently used by the Spanish team are also based on their The two cars were based on the black Ares Beyond and Big Mac that the two had previously used in Neon.”
“The next one is the captain of the Spanish team, known as the Golden Matador in Europe. Casillas," Director Zhang introduced.
After the Chinese Dragon Team came on stage, everyone stood at the starting point of the Tokyo Dome. Following the four-wheel drive fighter's order, ten cars sped out almost at the same time.
"Come on! Chasing the Wind Tiger!" The five vehicles of the Zhanlong team formed a group queue at the beginning. Led by the Chasing Tiger with the highest torque and the strongest start, the team gained the advantage in a short period of time. .
The new Storm Chaser is not only excellent in performance, but its aerodynamic structure and body design that are more in line with its teammates also give it a considerable improvement in assistance capabilities compared to the original Jingtian Tiger. The advantage was gained in a short period of time.
"Come on! Yin-Yang Scorpion!" After completing the speed increase, the second-ranked Yin-Yang Scorpion exchanged positions with Chasing the Wind Tiger, taking over the right to lead the section of road he was most familiar with. At the same time, it also widened the gap with the Spanish team.
“It seems that the Chinese Dragon Team chose to change their strategy in this game and took the lead strongly from the beginning.” Director Zhang said.
“Then next, they have to prepare for the impact of the Spanish team. We all know that the Chinese Dragon Team has one of the best impact in the world, but we just don’t know how accomplished they are in this area. That’s it.”
"Xiaoyin, calculate the next power distribution plan. The last 30% of the road section will allow us to leave about 45% of the power." Lin Shu said.
Lin Bo planned to speed up. When facing a team that breaks through from behind, it is also a common tactic for the leading team to speed up to put pressure on the opponent and thereby affect the opponent's rhythm of the game.
The AI quickly delivered the plan to everyone's terminal. Lin Bo chose a slightly safer plan, and the Yin Yang Scorpion at the front of the team soon began to accelerate according to the route.
"Captain, they are speeding up." A member of the Spanish team reminded.
"Follow me, Avilia, you will lead the team." Casillas directed.
"Captain, don't we just keep our own rhythm when facing this kind of situation?" Gen Kondo was a little confused about his captain's different command today.
“Ayuan, top matadors will adopt different methods when facing different bulls. When facing opponents of average strength, it is a good choice to remain unchanged and adapt to changes. However, When facing the strongest bull every year, the best way is to follow the bull's rhythm first, then slowly pull it into your own rhythm, and finally deliver a fatal blow without realizing it. " Casillas explained patiently.
