Archery, according to Huang Zhong, also has several realms.

This bow and arrow, in fact, everyone can use it, pick up the bow and arrow, as long as you can pull the bowstring, you can shoot arrows, so beginners are naturally not a realm.

True introduction to archery refers to the fact that under normal circumstances, at least five out of ten arrows can be shot at a humanoid target 30 paces away after aiming. That's how you get started.

However, even if you want to cultivate archery to the beginning, it is not an easy task.

Because archery is not the same as the use of guns to shoot targets in later generations. Later generations of guns, in a short distance, after the bullet is shot, basically go straight to the point, as long as you understand the basic aiming skills, in a short distance basically will not be affected by the wind speed and arc.

But the arrow is different, this starts from pulling the bow and the arrow, it is a technical job, if you don't do it right, then after the arrow shoots out, let alone whether it hits the target, the arrow doesn't know which direction it will fly to, one doesn't get it right, this shot is possible behind you.

In addition, the rate of fire of the bow and arrow is definitely far less than that of the bullet, and after the arrow is shot, in fact, the flight trajectory of the arrow can generally be seen with the naked eye, and it is obvious that even if it is about thirty steps, it already has a certain arc. That is to say, archery, if it is aimed directly at the target to release the arrow, it will definitely miss the target.

Therefore, it is necessary to grasp the problem of how to correct an angle parameter upwards when aiming at the target.

And in this ancient era, where would ordinary people understand this, they basically relied on experience, with the experience gained through more practice to release arrows.

It can be said that half of the ten people who practice archery cannot understand why they should deviate from a certain angle upwards or in other directions when aiming at the target, no matter how they practice.

Also, what are these angles, I'm afraid even ten people won't know. Those who really practice archery to the entry level are those who have practiced more archery, opened their minds, and then learned how to really hit the target with experience.

Don't underestimate this, many people, even if they have received the guidance of a super archery master like Huang Zhong, but he just can't even get started. For example, let him shoot at that target, tell him how to aim, how to deviate from an angle, and tell him that way. But he didn't know how much to deviate from, and often he just casually deviated from an angle and shot the arrow, so that it was all up to luck to miss the target. In this case, how can it be regarded as an entry?

Those who learned arrows with Huang Zhong, in addition to Liu Xian, there were dozens of specially selected people. But there are few that can really be regarded as beginners.

In addition, it should be said that archery also has a lot to do with arrows. If the arrow is uniformly made, it will be the same, but if it is not uniformly made, then the arrow will also be light and heavy. In fact, hand-made arrows, even if they are made by the same batch of the same person, even if they look the same, there will actually be some subtle differences.

Therefore, for real archery masters, their requirements for arrows will be relatively high, at least, they will have a certain observation and understanding of each arrow. This is still an arrow, and an arrow shaft, each arrow shaft will actually have some thickness and so on, and there will be a difference in weight, some hardwood arrows, must be heavier, if all arrows are made of iron, then it will be heavier, but these iron arrows, generally used for crossbow arrows, rarely give the archer to bow and arrow fire, too heavy, and the shot can not shoot far.

There is also the arrow at the end of the arrow, which will affect the distance and accuracy of the arrow after it is fired.

If a person, no matter what kind of arrow it is, at a distance of about thirty paces, more than half of the ten arrows are considered to be a beginner.

If at the same distance, the arrows can hit the target, even if it is not the vital part of the target, in this way, it is considered to have reached the realm of the primary archery.

If you go down, you can hit arrows at a distance, at least seven or eight out of ten, which can be regarded as reaching the intermediate level of archery.

If you can do five or six out of ten to hit the target from a hundred steps away, then this is a high-level archery master.

In the army, there are not many people who can hit the target a hundred steps away, and even if there are, they are basically real general-level figures.

And the master of archery can penetrate the Yang in a hundred steps, and can shoot the target in the run, and even move the target.

Archery master, archery has been able to play tricks. It is possible to shoot at moving targets at a greater distance.

Like killing those flying birds, more than half of the ten arrows can hit the target, these can be called archery masters.

And Huang Zhong's archery skills have surpassed the realm of the archery grandmaster, and he can be called a god-level archery master.

Looking at the Three Kingdoms, there are only a handful of archery that have reached the god level, and there are not a few.

Of course, archery is so graded, and this is only a superficial grading realm. In terms of strength, like those who can shoot at the target while moving, it is no longer something that ordinary people can do. In that case, not only must the archers have the above-mentioned archery skills, but also have certain requirements for their internal strength and true qi. Archery masters who have reached that level no longer need to aim when shooting arrows, and they can shoot targets by feeling. At the same time, when that level is reached, there will be an air engine traction, which can lock on to the target according to the gas engine.

Anyway, archery is not an easy thing.

Liu Xian appeared, and he had just practiced archery with Huang Zhong not long ago, and he had reached the intermediate level of archery.

Within 100 steps, with a fixed arrow rake, Liu Xian can even hit seven or eight out of ten.

Such a situation surprised Huang Zhong, thinking that Liu Xian was a natural archer.

In fact, the former Liu Xian did have a certain foundation in archery, which he learned from Zheng Feng. But these are not the reasons why Liu Xian's archery skills have become so powerful all of a sudden, and Liu Xian is not a real natural marksman.

The main reason is that Liu Xian is actually a traverser, about the principle of archery, Huang Zhong understands Liu Xian a little, and even, many things that Huang Zhong himself does not understand, Liu Xian can also understand.

Because Liu Xian knows what wind speed is and what angle parameters he knows. And when Liu Xian holds a bow and arrow in his hand, he can roughly estimate the weight of the arrows, etc., so that he can roughly estimate whether these arrows are affected by wind speed and air resistance in the process of flying, and how much this effect is.

Liu Xian can feel the speed of the wind and knows how much angle to deviate from the left and right after aiming at the target.

In this way, when Liu Xian practiced archery for a day or two, a series of parameters were obtained according to the landing point and maximum distance of the bow and arrow shot. In this way, when it comes to really aiming at the target, Liu Xian will be able to do it in his heart.

Of course, these are all calculated in Liu Xian's heart and mind.

In addition, Liu Xian's Taiping True Qi also helped Liu Xian a lot, especially Liu Xian's special situation, which was like being settled, and he could perceive the situation of the surrounding pictures in his mind. Liu Xian found that as long as he shot out the bow and arrow, as long as he synthesized a rough value according to the distance, wind speed, air resistance and other factors, and then according to this value, he directly aimed at the target in Liu Xian's mind, so that if the arrow was released, it could also accurately hit the target.

But it's a pity that Liu Xian's current perception range is limited, and he hasn't been able to perceive the picture a hundred steps away.

What's more, Liu Xian himself can't move, unless he sits on horseback and moves by himself like after entering Quyang City, if Liu Xian himself moves, the picture in his mind will soon be shattered because of the movement.

On the battlefield, it's impossible for someone to stand and aim at you, and it's unlikely that you'll stand still to aim. Therefore, Liu Xian still has to practice archery well, so that he can shoot at the target without relying on the mental picture to perceive, and that is the real ability to shoot at the target at will.

After practicing archery with Huang Zhong, Liu Xian also realized that if he wanted to train a team of sharpshooters with 100 shots, it would be difficult to achieve any results without more than three years. Therefore, Liu Xian believes that if he becomes an army in the future, the archers will have to find another way to think of a way to make the bow and arrow more powerful.

As a traverser, there must be a way. The easiest way to do this is to concentrate more archers and let them shoot volleys at an area, so that they don't have to pay too much attention to their individual marksmanship.

However, for the time being, Liu Xian can't do it. One is people, without hundreds of archers, the power of salvo coverage is not visible. The other is the bow, in this ancient era, it is not easy to make a bow, especially those strong bows, excellent good bows, a good bow can not be made in about three years.

The bow and arrow of this ancient era, the real strong bow, generally had an effective killing range of about two hundred paces.

But now the effective killing range of the bows and arrows of the Han army is about 150 steps, not even 200 steps. If you want to cover the battlefield with a salvo of such a bow and arrow, it will be difficult to exert real lethality.

With a distance of more than 100 steps, people can rush to the front with dozens of breaths. Therefore, Liu Xian must make a strong bow with a longer range in the future.

Bows and arrows in general, such as those made by hunters, are generally ranged from 100 to 150 paces if they are not made in the traditional way and using the best materials. These are obviously not suitable for Liu Xian to equip his own archers.

But these are not in a hurry for the time being, Liu Xian still has time to prepare, for the time being, it is better to train some archers first.

Liu Xian practiced archery by the river with the selected archers until dusk.

The weather in December is getting colder and colder, and the sky is getting darker and darker quickly.

Just when Liu Xian and the others returned to Liulin Village, a team of people slowly came from the south.

As soon as Liu Xian and the others returned to Liulin Village, there was an urgent report from the sentry.

Now Liulin Village no longer has to let some old people, women and children keep an eye on it as before. In particular, the secret camp of the Sin Army was set up in the windbreak forest to the south, and there were caravan guards who were trained in those places, and after the horse farm that was being set up now, the people of their own caravan guards and the Sin Army secret camp were staring at the plain to the south.

This is not only to the south, but also in other directions, there are always people watching.

In such troubled times, even if the Yellow Turban Army was defeated, Liu Xian did not dare to take it lightly. Whether it is a thief or an officer or an officer, as long as someone comes, Liu Xian must be careful and prepare his men and horses.

Liu Xian believes that with his current strength, as long as there are not thousands of troops, Liu Xian can deal with any threat that is unfavorable to him.

"What kind of centaur is it? Where did it come from? What is the purpose of coming to Liulin Village? ”

Liu Xian asked the caravan guards who came to report.

"Young master, it's ...... There were about 200 people in total, and they looked like officers and soldiers, but they didn't look like they, but they seemed to be guarding a carriage. ”

"That's right...... It's okay, let our people not have to worry, they don't have to stop them, just let them come. However, your people follow secretly, and if they are wrong, kill them again, if it's okay...... Well, look at my gestures, let you disperse and disperse, and don't expose it easily. After Liu Xian explained to him, he thought for a while and said to Huang Zhong: "Let's go, let's wait at the entrance of the village in the south of the village to see who is coming." ”

There are only 200 people, even if they are officers and soldiers? Liu Xianzhen was not worried at all.

With Huang Zhong here, as soon as the magic arrow came out, those two hundred people probably didn't dare to move.

The people below Liu Xian should not be easily exposed, so when they see people like now, who do not know the situation, they don't need to step forward to ask anything. lest they encounter people with bad intentions that will be detrimental to them.

If there is no need, Liu Xian's people who don't want to rest have any losses. What Liu Xian needs is that they can report the situation to him in a timely manner. If it's really bad for you, then you can also make arrangements in time.

There are only 200 people at the moment, and Liu Xian thinks there is no need to make additional arrangements.

Liu Xian, Huang Zhong, and dozens of archers with bows and arrows in their hands, arrived at the entrance of the village together.

However, the speed of this team of centaurs is really slow, Liu Xian waited for a while, the sky was almost dark, the lights in the village were bright, and the team slowly came to the entrance of the village.

"Come, stop! Who are you? Why do you come to our Liulin Village? If you can't identify yourself, then you can't go into the village. ”

There are people below him, and they come forward to shout.

"Liulin Village? It turns out that this is Liulin Village. That's great. Madam, we arrived at Liulin Village, but we didn't expect it to be so far. ”

In the middle of this team, a crisp voice was heard.
