Chapter 115: Confrontation
Today's event is divided into three stages, and each stage is interspersed with talent shows by the ladies.
The appearance arranged in the first stage is naturally the protagonist of this grand event, the two heroes who have just returned to Beijing from the north and south border passes.
This one was held in the form of a confrontation match, which was called the confrontation between the soldiers of the North and South Border Passes.
The Jianguo Gongfu, which represents the northern border pass, and the Han Daejun's office, which represents the southern border pass, respectively sent five sons to form their own teams.
The confrontation is an obstacle course and shooting at a target that suddenly appears during the race, and finally a comprehensive score is given based on the speed of the horse and the hit rate of the arrow.
Now everyone finally had some understanding of the puddles, dirt bags, and wooden poles that suddenly appeared in the racecourse, and it turned out that those were the so-called obstacles.
To everyone's surprise, the representatives of the two teams actually appeared in two military generals' families.
The old man is naturally the old Jianguo Gong and the old general Han, both of whom are now over the age of sixties, and the appearance of the two white-haired veterans won the first ** on the racecourse.
The two veterans, dressed in battle armor and riding horses with bows and arrows in hand, looked particularly energetic today.
It's just that their appearance still surprised the unprepared Nanling Emperor Xuanyuan: "It is a great fortune for me to be strong and strong for the two old generals, but the two of them are very old, and there are many obstacles in this racecourse, so it is difficult for me to make the two of them appear." ”
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, although the old minister is getting old, he has never let go of his horse shooting, and this obstacle is just a piece of cake. Today, our two old men are taking the lead, not for the results, but for the young people. Your Majesty, please! The two old men were fighting horses all their lives, and they hugged their fists at Xuanyuan Sheng on the horse, and the bell-like sound echoed in the horse farm, and the horses under each of them seemed to raise their front hooves and neighed at the same time as their masters.
"Good!" Xuanyuan Sheng seemed to be driven by the pride of the two veterans, and after a strong good word came out, he immediately raised the order flag in his hand and issued the order to leave.
As soon as Xuanyuan Sheng's departure order was waved, the two veterans clamped the horse's belly, and the war horse under them galloped away like an arrow. Side by side towards the first obstacle not far away.
It was a series of three rows of long wooden poles about twenty meters apart, each supported on both sides by a triangular wooden frame, and the wooden poles were about six feet above the ground.
I saw the two veterans controlling the horses under them, bowing down and almost merging with the horses. Together in one volt, they successfully jumped over the long wooden array.
Not far from the long wooden formation was a long puddle, the water was not deep and could not submerge the horse's knee, but it also hindered the speed of some horses, and at this moment in the middle of the horse farm, a group of arrow targets suddenly rose.
In the eyes of everyone, the two veterans seemed to be single-minded and extremely focused on controlling the speed of the war horses under them. This is not the case.
The two veterans have been riding horses all their lives, and they are naturally watching and listening to all directions.
As soon as the target appeared, the bows and arrows in the hands of the two veterans had already been opened.
Maybe some people have just seen the target appear, the sound of "whoosh" has sounded, and the arrows in the hands of the two veterans have come out of the bow, which is really old and strong!
Perhaps considering the physical strength of the old man, the competition between the two veterans only circled the racecourse once, and the two returned to the starting point at the same time.
The arrow target was also sent to Xuanyuan Sheng, and the arrows shot by the two hit the bull's-eye, and Xuanyuan Sheng immediately judged the two to be comparable. The game was a great one, and the first game between the two teams ended in a draw.
The audience was thunderous, and among the people watching from the stands, the most excited was Han, who had not seen General Han for many years.
Seeing that his old father was still old and strong, Han was ashamed and ashamed.
From General Han's appearance to his exit, her tears almost never stopped.
"My grandfather is so healthy, my mother should be happy. The mother's body is not yet well, and she is not more excited. From the beginning of the competition, Situ Jiao returned to Han's side. accompanied Han and whispered comforting.
"My mother knows, my mother understands, and my mother is happy. My mother has not been filial in front of your grandfather all these years, and she is really ashamed of your grandfather. Han choked.
Although the voices of Han and Situ Jiao were extremely low, they still made the old lady dislike, but in front of so many people, they could only endure and didn't say anything cold.
Situ Jin is different. Seeing Han's tears raining down, he pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "The crying look on my face all day long, I don't know that I think there are dead people in the family, it's really bad luck!" ”
Although Situ Jin thought that his voice was very small, it still attracted the noble ladies in front and back to look back, and even attracted great dissatisfaction from General Han's wife Fang and Jianguo Duchess Chen.
Chen's gaze was like a knife on Situ Jin, and even the old lady who was sitting with Situ Jin was cold, and couldn't help glaring at Situ Jin fiercely, and reprimanded silently: "Shut up!" ”
Although Situ Jin still raised his head in great disbelief, maybe the Fang family and the Chen family had lived at the border for a long time, and the eyes of both of them had some murderous aura in the eyes of the border guards, and in the end they still blocked Situ Jin's mouth.
At this time, there was already a second pair of people participating in the competition on the field, and the second to appear was the young Jianguo Gong and General Han Da.
Manager Zhang De read out the rules of the competition between the two of them.
According to the rules, the two of them need to circle the racecourse three times respectively, and at the same time, they have to shoot three groups of nine arrows respectively, and the targets they shoot from the stationary target at the beginning to the moving target at the back are much more difficult and beautiful than the two veterans.
When the two veterans competed, everyone cheered for the two veterans almost in unison, and now the situation began to be different, the audience was obviously divided into different camps, and the audience began to wave flags and shout before it began.
The men's rough shouts were mixed with the small cheers of some girls, some cheering for Jianguogong, and naturally some cheering for General Han.
The older ladies only whispered in small quarters, some saying that the founding of the country would win, and some firmly believed that General Han would win, but this time there was no unanimous opinion.
As the wives of the two generals, the Chen family and the Fang family looked indifferent on the surface, but their clenched fists revealed a nervousness in their hearts, probably no one wanted their respective husbands to lose!
Han Shi was really very indifferent, she felt that the two would also be a draw.
Because she knew that these two people were not only of the same age, but also had similar hobbies, and even the master was the same person.
Although they have their own strengths, when it comes to mounted archery, the two almost never have a winner.
Han's gaze was fixed on General Han's body, that was her eldest brother, the eldest brother who loved her the most, she hadn't seen her for nearly twenty years, but now she had her temples dyed with hoarfrost. (To be continued.) )
