Chapter 453: Equestrian Competition

This horse has been following Xiaolong for many years, and their cooperation with each other has reached the highest degree of tacit understanding. In addition, all the horses of Xiaohu and Xiaolong must be trained to horn the new carriage to prevent the use of temporary substitutes for the horses pulling the cart in special circumstances. Therefore, the little dragon's horse will not go crazy under the interference of the general noise.

It's the hundred households surnamed Li who want to compete with Xiaolong, and Xiaolong is also the happiest to see him, so he wants to frustrate him well, so that he can be honest as soon as possible. When Mr. Xiao asked if he wanted to pick another opponent, he shook his head and designated this young general.

Who knew that the hundreds of households had not yet started the competition, and when they saw the shiny black horse of the Wang Governor's Mansion and then looked back at their gray little comprehensive horse, they began to be cowardly.

The prefect didn't even glance at the hundreds of households, but only looked at the large open space, where some soldiers had set up obstacles for their competition. That kind of obstacle is actually nothing to him. When I used to be at home, I rode horses on the barren hill in the town. The sister-in-law of the pine trees in the mountains did not allow them to be cut, which caused a lot of inconvenience to the horses. However, it allowed him to practice the ability to dodge obstacles on a running horse. These obstacles are much simpler than the unruly pine trees that grow everywhere in the barren mountains.

Finally, when Mr. Xiao said that everything was done and he could start. Before the order to "start", Xiao Zongbing specially introduced the rules of the game to Xiaolong: the first round is to shoot arrows at the designated target while riding a horse over an obstacle. This goal is to set up two colors, red and green, all of which are erected together in different heights. One target is red. One goal is green. One point will be added for one shot right, and one point will be deducted for one wrong shot. In addition, the horse speed is fast and the opponent adds one point. Whoever scores more wins! Before the match, players from both sides are allowed to get close to see what they are shooting.

The second round is on horseback. Jumping over obstacles and cutting off a stake for a specific target, the stake is arranged in different trajectories, also in red and green, and is also mixed in phase. It is also based on the correct bonus points, the wrong deduction of points, and the speed of the horse plus one point to the scoring standard. The one with the highest score wins.

The third round is to control the horse over the designated obstacles and uncertain obstacles in the face of the noise of the drums, and the so-called uncertain obstacles are hidden. Only when you are about to reach a certain place, will it suddenly appear, like a stumbling horse. It is also based on the criteria for correctly adding points, deducting points for mistakes, and adding one point quickly. The one with the highest score wins.

After listening to these rules, Xiaolong realized that these soldiers were not idle. It will take several years for these trainings to meet the requirements, and if you want to keep improving, you have to practice even harder. It seems that in the past, it was always said that these GIs were idle when they were fine. It's really wronged.

The first round. Of course, Xiaolong will not miss a hand, originally the crossbow arrow was a toy that he could skillfully operate when he was a few years old, and now he can wield it with the same ease even when he is riding on a horse. Ten targets were shot, and the horse ran only two laps.

After the ten arrows of the hundred households were also shot, Xiao Zongbing personally stepped forward to verify the results of both sides. He saw that all the ten arrows of the prefect's mansion had hit the target correctly, and the tooth flowers were all bubbling with sour water. Although he hated these troublemakers, he was under his hands after all. If he loses too badly, his face will not look good. eccentricly gave the conspicuous red color of the target to hundreds of households. The green color was given to the prefect of the king. I didn't expect it to be useless at all, and people were still able to shoot the target accurately. And Libaihu shot seven arrows correctly, one arrow in the air, and two arrows on the green target by mistake, so he had to deduct two points, and the final score was only five points. And the prefect of the king is ten points plus one point of horse speed, a total of eleven points, and the hundreds of households can't even reach half of the score of the prefect's house. It's a miserable loss!

In the second round of the competition, the hundreds of households who had already hit did not have the slightest confidence to go into battle, and he did not admit defeat if he didn't want to go into battle. However, Mr. Xiao did not strike the game or choose his proud generals to go into battle, but found a person who was usually the most restless from those who stirred up trouble to replace Li Baihu and continued to compare. He said that he must seize this opportunity in order to not let these prodigals who are not good enough to do evil things escape. Seeing that they are defeated one by one at the hands of civil officials, can they not lose face and fall into the eighteenth layer of hell? He wants to let this humiliation be carried on the dignity of these people for the rest of his life, and see if they still have the face to continue to shamelessly provoke this and that in the army.

This kid who was selected is a child of the royal clan, and he is like several other people when he usually trains, as long as he is not too angry, Xiao Zongbing will not care too much about them. After all, there is no war now, and it is more difficult than anything else to ask for military supplies, and if these boys are too ruthless to discipline, their relatives will stumble behind their backs, and it is more difficult to get a military salary than God, and it can make people angry to death.

The boy who was selected originally thought he was amazing, but since watching the first two competitions, his heart has been trembling. At this time, he was picked out by General Xiao to compete with the Wang Governor's Mansion, and he suddenly thought that there didn't seem to be much time when he used to train seriously. In addition, they are not cavalrymen, they learned to ride horses at home, and when they arrived in the army, they were not cavalrymen or officers, and they had no horses for their own training. This kind of cavalry obstacle training will let them participate in it several times a year, and that is also to let them personally experience the weaknesses of the cavalry, so that they can brainstorm ways to restrain the cavalry. And the riding skills of the prefect of Wang can be seen from the first round of the competition, and it has almost reached the height of ordinary cavalry. He saw that Mr. Xiao didn't give him a chance to shirk at all, and finally knew that there was a lot of malice in it. But he had no way to say it, and he couldn't strongly ask not to participate in the competition, because they were the ones who provoked the competition in the first place.

The second round of the competition was almost a lone show for Xiaolong, and the kid who was forced to participate in the competition fell off his horse without finishing the first lap, and did not win a single goal. It was the little dragon who had a good time, although he used to be in the mountains in order to avoid the obstacles of the pine trees, it was also fun to flash his body to the left and to the right for a while. But there has never been a sword in both hands, and the reins of the horse are completely out of hand, and all the horses run with them. It's crazy! He cut off all the targets with a thrilling mindset and then ended the round.

Eleven points on the side of the prefect of Wang's mansion, and zero points for the 100 households. Another fiasco!

Mr. Xiao didn't look at the pale-faced group of hundreds of households at all, and only raised his voice at them and asked, "Who will be on the third game?" ”

All the wooden stakes on the field have been removed, and they have not yet decided who can go up to fight.

At this time, Li Baihu was no longer holding on, he walked up to Xiao Zongbing and begged in a low voice: "Master Zongbing!" Is this one avoidable? Shall we go straight into Voby? ”

Xiao Zongbing secretly sneered in his heart, it's all at this time, don't you apologize directly and admit defeat, you actually want to use martial arts to turn the game around? !

He laughed at these fools who had no vision in his heart, but he looked at the prefect of the king and asked tentatively: "The prefect of the king!" What do you see? ”

The reason why Xiaolong took the initiative to compete with them today was just to deter them, but he didn't want to waste too much time and energy on them. Since they are going to skip the third round of the competition, they have no opinion. At the moment, he nodded at Mr. Xiao and agreed.

Seeing the prefect of Wang nodding, his eyes flashed, and there was a sense of surprise hidden inside. Xiao Zongbing had been paying attention to him all the time, and when he saw his surprise that he thought was well hidden, he could only shake his head secretly. A person is so stupid that he doesn't know that he still has a brain, and he doesn't remind them, let them lose the last bit of face!

Xiao Zongbing finally stopped with a straight face, but nodded with a smile, and instructed his soldiers to go and give away the gun barrel and gun head that are usually used for training, and wrap cotton cloth to make a gun head, and give one to the Wang Governor's Mansion and one to hundreds of households.

Swords and axes are the most and most convenient weapons used by Xiaolong, and this wooden root (it should be said to be a gun) he has really never played with. Xiaolong casually played with the wooden stick to find the feel, while listening to Xiao Zongbing talking about the rules of martial arts: "In today's competition, as long as the head of the gun stained with black ink leaves a mark on the opponent's body, it will be regarded as a stabbing shot." If you are stabbed in a fatal mark and do not admit defeat, you will be directly judged to lose! Libaihu should be very clear, so what does the prefect have to ask? ”

Xiaolong didn't speak, only smiled and shook his head at Xiao Zongbing, who was looking at him. Seeing that the prefect Wang had no doubts, Xiao Zongbing announced: "Get ready!" - Let's go! ”

Xiao Zongbing gave an order, and Li Baihu immediately stabbed the head of the cloth gun that had been stained with black ink to the chest of the Wang Governor's Mansion, and the Wang Governor's Mansion seemed to take a step back inadvertently and turned around to dip the cloth gun head in ink, which happened to avoid the shot stabbed by the Li Baihu.

Li Baihu thought that he had almost stabbed the prefect of Wang's mansion, and he was excited to make persistent efforts and shoot again. Just as Xiaolong put the cloth gun head into the black ink, he bent down as if to check whether the ink in the ink basin had soaked the cloth gun head, and once again let Li Baihu stab a shot. Although Li Baihu didn't hit this shot, he couldn't help but be overjoyed to see such a big flaw in Wang Zhifu bending over and pouting his ass exposed in front of him. Holding the stick in both hands, he was about to slash down at the waist of the prefect.

When Xiao Zongbing inadvertently avoided the two attacks of hundreds of households in the prefect's mansion before, he knew that his skills were only more advanced than he expected. At this time, when I saw that the stick of the hundreds of households was about to be split, I didn't worry about the prefect Wang, and I didn't worry about the Wang family boys who were watching at all. It was Xiao Zongbing's nephew who sweated a lot for the Wang Governor's Mansion, but the rules of the game did not allow bystanders to speak and remind, so he could only clench his fists and endure it. But I was worried in my heart, if my waist was injured, this Lord Wang would probably be paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life.

The people here are excited one by one, and if they go down this stick, they can get back all the faces they lost before. Hum! If you don't give him a little color, you really think that a person with a pen can casually call us who hold guns?! (To be continued.) )
