Immediately afterwards, Procris felt his car suddenly thrown out to the outside, and heard a "bang!" sound, the violent vibration almost made him fall off the car, but fortunately he tightened the reins.

And the Gauls shouted and cursed beside him. It turned out that his car had collided with the opponent's.

The players all wanted to regain the position of the head when they turned, speeding up their horses one after another, trying to overtake from the outside. The eight traffic jams almost crowded together, causing multiple collisions.

Such an exciting scene aroused the audience's exclamation, and at the same time aroused their greater enthusiasm for watching the game, and the cheers were higher than the waves.

Unlike an epic movie in the previous life, where sawtooths are placed on the axles of the racing car, it can damage the cars of other players. It is impossible for the racing games of the Greek Games to allow such cheating. The racing cars participating in the competition must undergo strict inspections before they can be allowed. Entering the arena, the Dionian Games is even more so, if bad behaviors such as hitting an opponent with a horse whip are found, they will only be sent off. Therefore, this time the collision between the cars did not have the tragedy of car crashes, but it affected the speed of the cars.

When Procris' car slowed down due to the collision, another car quickly passed from the outside and rushed to the front.

The car shines with golden light, the driver is dark-skinned, and his wearing the same golden light, and the 4 dark horses are also equipped with gorgeous headwear, the whole car looks magnificent. It turned out that this was a driver from Egypt. He was not a slave or a freed slave like a Greek driver, but a little Egyptian nobleman who drove for the heir of the Pharaoh, Jie Hao. The reason why Jehe sent him to the game was to please Dionia on the one hand, and to show the capabilities and image of Egypt to Dionia and other cities in the Mediterranean.

It was only at the start of the race that the Egyptian envoy delegation led by Jiehe still did not reach Turei, which disappointed the Egyptian driver, but this did not affect his state in the race. Although he fell behind at the start, he was not too much. I was anxious, instead of speeding up and grabbing the lane like other players, I calmly drove the car around to the outermost side. With its superb driving skills, not only did not delay time due to multiple detours, but instead used other cars to collide and crowd. Rushed to the front.

When the Gallic driver saw this situation, he was anxious and whipped his horse, trying to let the car catch up. As a result, he collided with the car on the outside, and the driver was angry and cursed.

Procris was still calm. Instead of waving his whip, he flicked the rein, while blowing a whistle, shouting loudly: "Efira! Run, run!"

According to Coach Procris, “Incorporating a mare into the horses that pull the racing car, although the speed may be a little slower, but it can ensure the stability of the car, and at the same time can stimulate the stallions at critical times. Compete with each other and speed up the horses.” Procris accepted his suggestion, and found that the results were very good in training, and even later the mare called Efila became the stabilizer of the entire car.

At this moment, the clever young mare seemed to understand what the owner meant. It neighed a few times and slammed forward. The three young stallions also worked hard together next to her. Procris's racing car instantly accelerated. Leaving the crowded racing pile, if the horses were running slightly off at the time, they might encounter the Gallic racing car next to him, which was falling into anxiety.

After a while, the cars on the field were divided into different levels again. The Egyptian car charged ahead, Procris followed closely, Gaul, Bruti, and Thebes all went hand in hand, while Cyrenaica and Sinumibia had slightly Behind...Everyone, you chased me, each showed its ability, stirring up the dust and fog, the scene was very intense.

The cheers of the audience continued to be hot.

Although Dionian engineers used a mixture of fine sand and fine clay to pave the stadium, the dust was still unavoidable. Procris followed closely behind the Egyptian car and naturally tasted the pain of eating ashes. Through the dust and mist, he saw that the staff on the mid-ridge platform was picking up one of the rows of silver dolphin statues erected on the iron hook, and his heart moved slightly: already a circle.

He concentrated immediately, because in front of these dolphins was another stone pillar to turn.

He saw that the Egyptian car in front was close to the ridgeline, obviously intending to hold the inner ring. He turned his head and looked to the side. No car caught up, so he took the reins to the outside without hesitation while blowing in his mouth. Gave a hasty whistle.

The four horses immediately rushed to the outer circle, still maintaining a high speed when turning, because of inertia, Procris's car once again slammed outwards, and also fell to the right, just about to overturn.

The nearby audience shouted worriedly.

However, Procris was not in a panic. He grasped the reins tightly, stood firm on his legs, and controlled his center of gravity. The left wheel of the car was suspended in the air, and only after rolling on the right wheel for a while, the left wheel landed safely again...

The Dionia audience was greatly relieved, and then the audience cheered thunderously for Procris's wonderful performance.

This is the fast cornering technique that Procris has developed in the past two years. Successfully displaying it in a real game has also boosted his confidence. He shouted in excitement: "Good job, Efila! Good job! Boys!"

The four horses responded with high-pitched neighs, and the four running hooves became more powerful, dragging the car and chasing them.

When the Egyptian driver saw Procris who had been chasing his side, he felt a little nervous, and immediately waved his horse whip and shouted: "Frame! Frame!..."

The riders learned their lesson and tried to keep the gaps when turning, but the tragedy still happened.

The Macedonian driver who fell in the back was eager to catch up. He still maintained high speed when cornering, but did not have the superb driving skills of Procris. After colliding with the Sinumibia car ahead, the car overturned and the driver was dumped. Fly out...

The audience exclaimed.

The ambulance crew immediately ran into the scene of the accident, lifted the injured driver on a stretcher, and pulled the car to the exit of the stadium. Fortunately, the Macedonian car was the last one, so all the clean-up work was relatively quick and did not affect the progress of the race.

The doctor arrived quickly and carefully checked the driver's injuries, and found that he had no injuries except for a dislocated arm, a shock to his head, and some fainting. He was lucky.

Of course, this is also related to the safety measures adopted by the Dionian Games: the Dionian Games racing referee requires the drivers to wear helmets with soft cotton lining, thick leather clothing and leather pants, and even reduce Start the gate to avoid collisions caused by too many cars in the race... But even so, accidents still happen, and the car race is indeed the most dangerous event in the games.

Shame, this is simply a shame to Macedonia! ...... The Macedonian Prince Philip in the VIP table was very angry.

The Macedonian envoy next to him comforted him and said, “You don’t need to be angry. Although Macedonia is rich in horses, people love to ride horses and few people drive. And they have never participated in any racing competition before (the Greek city-state regards Macedonia as barbarians, no They are allowed to participate in various games in Greece. They have no experience in racing. They only signed up for this event because of Dionian’s hospitality. Such failures are inevitable."

Philip obviously could not accept this statement. He said with a stern face: "Since you have participated in the competition, you must have the ambition to win the championship! If you have no experience, you can learn from experienced people and hurry up and train! The invitation letter was sent out a year ago, and what he has been doing for more than a year, and his performance on the court is so poor that the audiences from all over the world look down on us. How can this be accepted!"

The Macedonian envoy was a bit embarrassed. He sank his face and ignored Fili. He stared at the arena and thought: Although you are a prince, you don’t have any right to come to Dionia without permission. He has already added no to me. No trouble, I still yell at me now, I don't know what is good or bad!

The contemptuous attitude of the Macedonian envoy made Philip gritted his teeth. Although he was young, he was already relatively knowledgeable in the world. He knew why the other party dared to do so, not only because he was irrelevant in Macedonia, but even his brother, King of Macedonia, Patty Cass also did not have much influence in the country. Most of the power was controlled by Ptolemy and several other ministers. He even doubted that if there was no support from Dionian, the brazen and external proclaiming The Ptolemy of Tikas and his stepfather had usurped the throne long ago. The domestic kingship has declined, and Macedonia is a poor and backward country in the eyes of many city-states and countries. Compared with the neighboring Dionian Kingdom Thessaly region, it is completely different.

The reason why Philip came to Dionia secretly, UU reading www.uukanshu.com to watch the sports meeting is not the main purpose, but to earnestly explore how Dionia from a small city-state in just 20 to 30 years Nei is the real reason for such a powerful kingdom. However, the population of Turiyi is so large. He is only a drop in the ocean in it, and there is no one to care about. He was shocked by the prosperity of this huge city and lacked administration. He who has experienced it cannot see through this prosperity and see the real secrets that can lead to this prosperity.

Sometimes he couldn't help feeling frustrated: Is it possible that the Macedonian royal family will always be under the protection of Dionia? ! Could it be that Macedonia will never be able to perform miracles like Dionia? !

……………………………………………………

The race is still going on fiercely. Two laps, three laps, four laps... the top two are always the cars of Egypt and Turey. The two drivers are biting each other tightly, and the difference is no more than one horse. But the third to fifth place kept changing, sometimes it was Gaul, sometimes it was Bruti, and sometimes it was Corinth... You chased me, it was so lively, it aroused the cheers of the audience outside the stadium.
