Sawamura couldn't make up his own mind and immediately decided to throw this headache for everyone to discuss.
It's not that Sawamura wants to shirk his responsibility, but he doesn't know how to choose this kind of thing. If he knew how to do it right, he would definitely decide without hesitation. Even if some people say that he is strong and domineering, Sawamura doesn't care. As the leader of the team, if he doesn't have the courage, he will not lead the team.
The problem is that Sawamura himself doesn't know how to decide on this matter. When he doesn't know what to do himself, he can only listen to other people's suggestions and discuss an idea. It's all a gamble anyway, so of course, you have to choose an approach that everyone agrees with so that even if you fail in the future, it will be easier for Sawamura himself and everyone to accept it.
In the evening, everyone got together to discuss tomorrow's tactics against Tenryuji Middle School.
When Sawamura showed his own thoughts to everyone, everyone was dumbfounded.
Sawamura has experienced this. He was in high school in his previous life. After the spring competition, the top two teams in Tokyo also participated in the Kanto Conference. The rules are similar to the current rules, it is also a district, and two represent schools. At that time, Sawamura's high school reached the finals of the Tokyo Spring University. He was facing the exact same situation as Akagi now.
Whether to go all out to win the championship and try to take advantage of the first round of the Kanto Conference, or use the bench to preserve strength.
Sawamura's high school at the time chose the latter without hesitation. Compared with the champions of Tokyo Spring University, they are not willing to reveal more information about themselves to the opponents they may encounter in the Kanto Conference. And according to Sawamura's experience, 90% of other schools that made it to the finals would do the same.
Of course, the current Akagi is in a different location from the high school where Sawamura used to live. The high school where Sawamura lived in his previous life was a famously wealthy family in Tokyo and even the whole country. They have no ambitions for the Chunda championship. The honour of the Spring Championship is like a tasteless existence to them.
It is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it!
Akagi Middle School is different. The Akagi Middle School baseball team has not won any honours since its establishment. The champion, even if it is only the champion of the county competition, has an extremely powerful attraction to them.
Sawamura and Aoi Ren are better. Considering the honours they have won, the champion of a county competition will naturally not attract them. But the other little friends don't have the same experience as them. The championship of a county competition is enough for them to brag about for a long time in their future lives.
Sawamura experienced this kind of thing in his previous life. Other friends, including the two teachers Sano and Wada, have this kind of experience. When Sawamura asked, all of them were stupid.
Then they stared at Sawamura innocently but didn't speak.
Sawamura stared at them for five minutes and finally had to lose. How could his pair of eyes be the opponent of the 20 pairs of eyes on the opposite side?
"That's the situation. It's okay to keep your strength or try your best to win the championship."
Sawamura spread his hands, signaling everyone to express their opinions enthusiastically.
As the first pony under Sawamura, Ashin certainly couldn't watch his boss sit on wax at this time. He immediately took over the topic: "Even if we fight to the death with Tenryuji, we may not have a chance of winning. Instead of leaking all our information, there may not be a good result. It is better to retain our strength and participate in the Kanto Conference as a dark horse. "
Sawamura glanced at Nobu in surprise. He really didn't expect that he would have such insight when he was young. Fighting with Tenryuji to the death, let alone victory or defeat, it is certain that his own strength is exposed and other teams are alerted.
Among the sixteen teams in the Kanto Conference, there is no Chinese cabbage to give out points. Whether Akagi, whose strength is fully exposed, can win two games in a row, advance to the semi-finals, and secure a national quota, is very problematic. On the contrary, if he didn't fight with Tenryuji and kept his identity as a dark horse, Akagi would have a much higher chance of winning two games in a row by surprise. In any case, the current Akagi's real strength is enough to reach this level, and he has the qualifications to compete for the place in the national competition.
In this case, hiding in the dark as an enemy will be despised, a dark horse who does not know the depth. It is far more beneficial than being strong against the tyrants of Tenryuji, one of the top four in the country.
You must know that the Kanto Conference is still half a month away. If the opponent has detailed information about Akagi, they will have enough time to think about the tactics.
Sawamura agrees with Ashin's statement. It's just that these words are not very comfortable to hear in human ears. You must know that the slogan that Akagi shouted at the beginning was to overturn the three kings. He also said that he might not be able to win Tenryuji.
Isn't this a slap in the face?
Sawamura nodded and said nothing. Instead, he turned his face and asked the others, "What about you guys, what do you think?"
The little friends looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
To be honest, many of them are very ambitious for the Nagano champion. Just as Sawamura had worried before, they were not Sawamura, and they were sceptical of the goal that Sawamura had set in their hearts. It's that easy to get into the national competition. Although they have now obtained the qualifications to participate in the Kanto Conference, but before Nagano Metropolitan Middle School and Dabei Middle School, didn't they qualify for the Kanto Conference? But in the end, they were not defeated in the Kanto Conference.
In the Kanto region, there are only four and a half places to participate in the country, and only one can be allocated to two regions on average. Such a fight is much more difficult than overturning the three kings of Nagano County.
"If we really aim at the national competition, I think it's better for us to choose to preserve our strength."
Masayoshi Renya, the head military advisor of Sawamura, said the second one: "Compared with Tenryuji, although we have confidence. However, we have a better chance of winning over two other counties whose strength is similar to Tenryuji. After all, other counties have a better chance of winning. People who are not like Tenryuji do not know us as well as Tenryuji. As long as we score unexpectedly, we will be able to win. Not to mention that the odds of winning are higher, even if the odds are 50 to 50, I think it is more cost-effective to choose the latter. Participating in a national competition is much more attractive than a pure Nagano champion."
Sawamura nodded secretly, but before Renya could speak. The exact meaning, from his mouth, is much stronger than that idiot Nobu. And his remarks are undoubtedly more inflammatory.
After listening to Renya's words, the members of the Akagi Middle School baseball team are all short of breath.
