Chapter 400: Archery Competition
"Well, since you're so obsessed with being a general, it's not impossible."
Liu Zheng knew that since he couldn't stop talking and couldn't dispel Tai Shici's idea of wanting to be a general, then Liu Zheng could only change to another way.
As soon as Tai Shici heard that he actually said that he had moved Liu Zheng, he could become a general, where could he be unhappy, and immediately looked at Liu Zheng with anticipation.
"Great, what does it take to become a general?"
"You are so confident and think that you have great ability, then I will give you a chance, as long as you take out your best martial arts to defeat a general under my command, then I will promise you to be a general, otherwise, you have to start as a soldier, how about it?"
Liu Zheng looked at Tai Shici with a smile, and on the surface he complimented Tai Shici, making him think that Liu Zheng really felt that he was very capable, but in fact, Liu Zheng's heart had already begun to dig a pit at this time.
And Tai Shi Ci didn't know, when he heard Liu Zheng's words, it turned out that he was just competing with Liu Zheng's subordinates, which was exactly what Tai Shi Ci wanted, and he also wanted Liu Zheng to see his strength.
It was a good shock to Liu Zheng and impressed Liu Zheng, when he became a general, he would be justified, and others would not dare to say that he was going through the back door.
"Okay, I'm thinking about it, I didn't expect you to bring it up, I want to think about it, what is it."
Tai Shi Ci happily accepted Liu Zheng's proposal, then pondered for a while, and in just two minutes, he said it in one mouth.
"Let's try archery, I'm very sure of my archery, if there are people under your command who can compare with me in archery, then I'll admit defeat and give you peace of mind as a soldier, how about it?"
Tai Shi Ci originally wanted to try other things, such as riding, fighting, etc., but when he thought of Liu Zheng, this guy was famous and famous, and there were really a few capable people under him, others didn't dare to say it, just that Gan Ning, Tai Shi Ci felt a little threatened, if he really fought with Gan Ning.
To defeat that Gan Ning steadily, Tai Shi Ci really didn't dare to boast about Haikou like this, but if he competed in archery, Tai Shi Ci would be full of confidence, and he wouldn't be afraid at all.
Although he also knew that Gan Ning's archery skills were good, Tai Shici still thought that his archery skills were better than him.
And what Liu Zheng thought of at this time was that he also decided that Tai Shici would say that he wanted to compete in archery.
Maybe Tai Shici also knows that Gan Ning's archery skills are not as good as him, and Liu Zheng has also had some insight into Gan Ning's archery, after all, Gan Ning is also a famous shooter in history.
In history, Gan Ning shot Ling Cao, Huang Zu, Cai Yi, and Le Jin.
Ling Cao was shot to death directly, Huang Zu was cut off after being hit by an arrow, and Cai Yi only mentioned that he fell in response to the string, and it was estimated that he was dead.
Only Lejin was rescued, but then Lejin basically had nothing to do with him in Cao Ying, even if this arrow did not end Lejin's life, it was likely to end Lejin's military career.
This kind of archery is placed in the Three Kingdoms, not to mention ranking in the top three, but Gan Ning's archery is still very promising to rank among the top five among the many generals in the Three Kingdoms period.
Of course, in the face of Tai Shi Ci, Gan Ning's archery skills may be really inferior, but Liu Zheng didn't want Gan Ning to compete with Tai Shi Ci in archery.
Under him, there is also a No. 1 marksman of the Three Kingdoms!
The number one marksman, Liu Zheng is a little boastful, but Huang Zhong's archery skills are definitely among the best.
He dared to say second, and he dared to be arrogant in front of him, and I was afraid that only Lu Bu was there.
Lu Bu's archery, Liu Zheng has not seen it, but Huang Zhong's archery, Liu Zheng has personally learned it, when in Nanyang, Huang Zhong's arrow almost killed Zhang Mancheng, if it wasn't for Zhang Zhongjing to rescue, I'm afraid that Zhang Mancheng is already a dead man now.
It was precisely because he had seen Huang Zhong's archery with his own eyes that Liu Zheng knew that there should still be some gaps between Tai Shici's archery skills and Huang Zhong's.
Liu Zheng just wanted to let Tai Shi Ci see that the people under him were stronger and stronger, and it didn't have to be Tai Shi Ci.
At the same time, he also wants Tai Shici to understand that in this world, there are people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains, so as to sharpen his arrogant mentality.
If Guan Yu in history was not arrogant, he would not have lost Maicheng if he wanted to, and Liu Zheng knew that Tai Shi Ci and Guan Yu had the same arrogant attitude, so he didn't want Tai Shi Ci to maintain this character all the time.
"Since it's an archery test, there's no problem with that."
"Well, I'm afraid that if you lose, you will regret it, why don't you hold an archery tournament and call all the generals under you, if one of them can defeat me, I will admit defeat, how about it?"
Tai Shici also felt that winning a single person was not too enjoyable, and he was afraid that Liu Zheng would play tricks when the time came, and make excuses that this person was not good at archery, so Tai Shici simply boasted about Haikou and said that he would challenge all the generals under Liu Zheng's command.
This time, it made Liu Zheng happy, he didn't know how to open his mouth and tell Tai Shi Ci to let Huang Zhong compare with him, since Tai Shi Ci was so good, then Liu Zheng had nothing to hesitate about.
Immediately, I agreed.
"Okay, since you are interested, let's hold an archery competition during this Spring Festival."
In history, when Cao Cao built Tongquetai, in order to celebrate, he also held an archery competition in Tongquetai, and Liu Zheng followed Cao Cao's example today, and held an archery competition on the day of the Spring Festival, and invited the soldiers of the whole army to participate.
Anyone who thinks they are skilled in archery can participate and set up a lottery.
The top ten in archery are rewarded with a good horse, which is a war horse that has just been obtained from Karasuma, and it is still very exciting in Jiaozhou, a place where there is no war horse.
The first three in archery will have a bounty of one hundred taels.
The first archery, the general, a thousand forging swords, a set of armor.
After this news came out of Liu Zheng's mouth, it immediately caused a sensation among all the military and civilians in Jiaozhou.
In several military camps, they mobilized one after another, and everyone wanted to participate, and even when the news reached Guiyang County, Huiji County and other places, they all wanted to participate.
Many soldiers want to compete with others under Liu Zheng, Liu Zheng never thought that the archery competition mentioned casually was so hot, so he had to make this competition serious, and stipulated that a month later, it was the preliminary competition, and each general could select ten people to participate, and then a total of 100 people, competing for the top ten and top three, as well as the strongest archery.
After the news spread, it made the entire Jiaozhou even more sensational, and in the army, everyone was guessing who would be the arrow god this time.
And the people are talking about this competition, who can't let them participate directly, but it can become a kind of after-dinner conversation.
