Chapter 3 The Unexpected
Equestrianism, this is a must for the Qingqiu army, infantry is equally important, and can play a huge role in various tactics, but every Qingqiu Erlang, every Qingqiu soldier, is a horse athlete, and when fighting, it is a cavalry horse and a horse is an excellent infantry. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info And that's not to mention the specialized cavalry. Qingqiu Mansion is a plain, Qingtang Mountain is a flat river, and the endless grassland gives Qingqiu great convenience. Horses were abundant here, and a large number of high-quality horses were paid to the empire every year. So the people who have lived here for generations are all instant experts.
But the test here is not whether you can ride a horse, but archery on a horse! Qin Chu and his party were taken to the assessment training ground. On the opposite side of the long runway is an arrow target fifty meters apart, only to see a red-clothed captain riding a horse, and arrived in front of him in a moment, lifting the arrow and drawing the bow, all in one go, without the slightest fluctuation of vitality, only with the strength of the flesh to pull a huge bow full, there is no time to aim, after an arrow, another arrow, a series of ten arrows without dragging mud and water. Strength, technology, and beauty can only be said to be a perfect performance, all ten arrows hit the target, the arrow passes through the bull's-eye, and the arrow shaft is stuck on the target at a distance close to the same. "Good, good" There was a cheer from outside the field, and the rider, who had performed an astonishing archery skill, did not look back, rode his horse again and again, and disappeared from everyone's field of vision.
A young man wondered, "Who is this, can anyone in our army do it?" A soldier on duty who was holding a grass root and lazily leaning against the pillar laughed dryly: "Shooting the target, as long as you practice hard for two or three years, there is no problem, but it is difficult to hit the bull's-eye with ten arrows, and it is not difficult to shoot the bull's-eye, the difficult thing is that the arrows penetrate the bull's-eye, as for the strength of arrows like him to penetrate the target, hehe, this is not hard practice, what is needed is talent!" Looking at his appearance, I guess it's the people there" "Where is that, are they all so powerful?" A young man asked.
"Go and go, it's okay to ask anything, I warn you, don't ask if you shouldn't know, I'm going to be assessed soon, the better the performance, the better the troops, and the worse the performance, all go to raise horses and cook." The soldier on duty scolded. The young man who had just spoken shrunk his neck and said confidently: "Although I can't be like him, it's not difficult to hit the target." "It looks like I'm eager to give it a try.
Maybe everyone is skilled in arching horses, but in such an environment, and the need to move to shoot, it is still ten arrows at a time, and the difficulty rises sharply. So the results are not very good, many people shoot quite well in the first few arrows, and some people can even shoot the bull's-eye, but when it comes to the next few arrows, most of them are off target.
Qin Chu thought about it, indeed, each arrow shoots its own rhythm and state will be very different, not to mention that each arrow has to adjust its own state to the stage of adaptation. Most people have only three or four out of ten arrows. After a while, it was finally the turn of the young man who had just spoken, and Qin Chu was a little looking forward to what results this very confident person, who was only one number away from him, could get.
There was a lot of noise outside the venue, not only the people who wanted to join the army, but also their relatives, so the number was also very large, and the young man just now seemed to be alone, a little similar to himself. Qin Chu smiled bitterly.
started, I saw this young man, flying on his toes and flying on the horse, his heart moved, it seems that this is also a cultivator, but he has not yet opened up the dantian, no wonder he can't see it. In this continent, cultivators are very rare, and before opening up the dantian, the difference between ordinary body cultivators and cultivators is not very big, but only those who have been in contact with cultivation will control their own strength so well.
The horse began to gallop under his drive, only to see that his expression was solemn, and he no longer had the appearance of the hippie smile before, and his temperament became deeper, and his body was frantically bumped on the horse, but in just a moment, he got used to it, and shook very rhythmically with the horse. Suddenly, as soon as his hand stretched out, the arrow had already arrived, and he also shot without aiming, an arrow! Right in the middle of the heart. In a state that no one else can see, the second arrow is close to the hand, and after a short adjustment, the second arrow hits the heart, and the third and fourth arrows also hit the heart.
There was an exclamation outside the arena, "Good, good", the applause was endless, but in Qin Chu's opinion, his movements were almost deformed, it seemed that even a cultivator could not constantly adjust his state in such an environment on the horse, and he immediately admired the previous one. In the case of the difficulty of one arrow after another, the strength of this young man is already breathtaking. However, Qin Chu is also very confident in himself, he is not only stronger than ordinary people, after several years of practicing the "sad little arrow", he has the confidence that all ten arrows hit the red heart.
As expected, the young man's movements finally had a flaw in the seventh arrow, and once the archery was deformed, it would be a thousand miles away. This time, he didn't hit the heart, but hit it a little off. The final result was that all ten arrows were on target, and six arrows were in the heart. There was a stir outside the arena, and even the lazy soldier's eyes widened. The big tent of the barracks is an excellent place to watch, in the middle is a burly man, with a rough face, and a dark complexion, a beard covering almost half of his face, and a big sword behind his back is almost as tall as himself, but his eyes are full of light, at first glance, he is a cultivator who cannot be underestimated, and suddenly said loudly: "This person I want this is a good seedling, he can have such strength at such a young age, and he is very likely to become a cultivator, such a person is very good in my pioneer camp." ”
A young man in civilian clothes next to him smiled: "Yes, but the next person is coming to my cavalry battalion." I saw this young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose, and a figure that was neither tall nor weak, but standing next to the big man was also impressive, and he had an extraordinary momentum.
Dahan was stunned for a moment, and he didn't understand why the treacherous deputy commander of the cavalry battalion said this. Then he looked at it and saw Qin Chuting on the horse, but the horse was irritable and kept neighing, but for some reason it suddenly fell silent. At this time, the big man's face darkened: "Is this the beast?" How did you get here, it's just nonsense! ”
It turns out that this horse is not actually a horse, but a magical beast, known as the Wind Beast, but it looks like a horse, and its body is smaller than that of an ordinary horse, and his eyeballs are pure cyan on behalf of the wind, and the Wind Beast is actually a very docile monster, which is widely recognized for its excellent characteristics, and it is something that can only be grabbed by breaking the head, especially in the army. But this is obviously not a good stubble, since it was born, it has been misdoing in the army, and everyone sees that it is extremely rare, and they don't care much about it. But this guy never lets people ride it, and likes to run around, and has a very strong temperament.
The young man in civilian clothes smiled: "With his ability, I will condemn him." ”
