In the official office of Zuo Qianniuwei, there are all kinds of shooting halls and school fields. In addition to the daily guards, the practice of mounted archery skills is also one of the work contents of the preparations.

From this point of view, Qianniuwei is not like a serious forbidden army guard, but more similar to Hongwenguan, Chongwenguan and other schools that specially recruit the children of nobles, and cultivate the archery and horse skills of these noble children.

But with the passage of time, these old rules were gradually forgotten and no longer deliberately emphasized, making Qianniuwei gradually reduced to a completely gilded place. After all, most of the people who can be selected for the body reserve have extraordinary family backgrounds, and they have no worries about a way out, and few people can aspire to martial arts.

When Li Tong came to the shooting hall, Zhu Beishen was still rushing here one after another. He didn't bother to wait here, so he simply walked into the shooting hall first and drew his bow to practice shooting.

The Qianniu Guard Office was already empty, so this archery hall was built quite grandly, and it was divided into many areas, in addition to the hall of infantry archery, there was even an archery booth for practicing mounted archery. The horses are provided by the Ouchi stable, fifty horses, with the moon as the fan, but they are not allowed to go out.

From this point of view, the imperial court is really good to these noble children, and the daily food consumption of fifty official horses alone is not a small amount, and special personnel must be sent to raise them intensively.

The cost of cultivating a skilled warrior with archers and horses is definitely not small, but as long as you can be selected for Qianniuwei, the consumption is provided by the state.

When Li Tong entered the shooting hall, there were also some preparers and main fighters who were practicing. He watched from the sidelines for a while, then walked into a small semi-enclosed hall on one side, and ordered the two main guards to fetch bows and arrows.

There are four types of Tang bows, one is the longbow, made by Sang Zhe, which is the bow of foot shooting. The second is the horn bow, which is made of various tendons and horns, and is the bow of riding and shooting. The third is a slight bow, which is a short bow with close shots. The fourth is the checkered bow, the color relief, the style of goods, belongs to the feather ritual vessel, and it is also the bow worn by Qianniuwei every day.

After coming to this world, Li Tong didn't have much opportunity to contact bows and arrows, only when he was fighting with the warriors in Qinling in the old years, he practiced for a few days, mainly with a slight bow for close shooting, and the knowledge of bows and arrows was also learned from the daily discussions of those old soldiers.

Because it is a short bow with close shot, the bow is made of less material, easy to make, and easy to maintain, of course, the bow force is not too high, usually less than one stone.

In fact, the bow power can be full of seven buckets, which has met the needs of the actual combat system, and can pierce armor within ten steps.

If the bow power continues to increase, this standard will be sharply reduced, and being able to open a strong bow with one stone is already an absolute elite pawn, and more than a dozen of them in a folding mansion can already be regarded as a large mansion, and many difficult combat objectives can be completed.

After coming to this world, Li Tong has always attached more importance to the cultivation of arm strength, and when he tried to hold a hard bow with a stone of bow strength in Qinling, he could make three introductions within 20 breaths, and he has been praised by others.

But after coming to Qianniuwei and coming into contact with the real standard military bow, he realized that his level was still extremely watery.

The bow body has been used for a long time, or the lack of qualified maintenance, will cause a decrease in toughness, the bow power is greatly reduced, the Qinling dare soldiers are bankrupt soldiers, and it is also known that there will not be any latest military weapons, and the weapons in their hands are often old things, and it is normal to have some depreciation.

Although Qianniuwei did not have any combat missions, the weapons they were rationed were very good. Every time he saw these sophisticated armed forces sealed in the yaku, Li Tong felt very distressed, and he had the urge to guard and steal by himself.

Inside and outside the Shendu City, he still has hundreds of daring warriors lurking, if these daring warriors are equipped with sophisticated weapons, the combat effectiveness will be qualitatively improved, and it will not be useless to directly engage in the battle of Xuanwu Gate.

This is by no means a spur of the moment, Li Tong seems to be bored sitting in the government recently, but in fact, he has been carefully observing the daily affairs and operation process of the Wei Mansion, and at the same time thinking about how to steal these weapons.

The weapons used by the guards of the Southern Ya are directly allocated by the treasury department under the Ministry of War, and the treasury of the Zhuwei Mansion will be checked every once in a while, and at the same time, the military of Cao Cao, who is in charge of the treasury of the Wei Mansion, will also be audited every month and reported to the Ministry of War for supplementation and replacement.

The recovery of ordnance is the responsibility of the Shaofu Shangfang Supervisor, who identifies its materials and recycles them, and distributes them to the subordinate departments for reuse and production.

A complete set of procedures, with discrepancies and inconsistencies, as well as strict supervision, each performing its own duties, a clear division of labor, and seemingly impeccable. But as long as it is operated by people, how can there be no loopholes, and the more links in the middle, the more loopholes there will be.

After observing for a period of time, Li Tong has initially aimed at two links, one is the audit link in the Wei Mansion, and the other is the recovery of Shang Fangjian.

He now has a monopoly in the Wei Mansion, and if he is replaced with a controllable, or even not cautious enough to join the army, and increase the frequency of replacement of the arsenal, these ordnance can flow and enter the recycling process.

Shaofu Shang Fang Supervisor, the jurisdiction is mainly Fang Qian and the like, the supervision is relatively not meticulous enough, and almost all the signed orders are below the sixth grade, and it will not attract too much attention when you install your own people. The recovered weapons were originally to be transformed into raw materials, but if this link is opened, they can be quietly circulated.

In the Beijing Forbidden Army, there are sixteen guards in the south, and there are left and right Yulin Army, thousand cavalry, flying cavalry and so on in the north. Even if the weapons are found to be circulated, it is very difficult to find out which one circulated them.

Of course, if you die by yourself, just steal the weapons that are exclusive to each guard, or don't even deal with the armory collection mark, that's another story.

Li Tong knew which pit his second father was planted in, and although he had a preliminary idea, he continued to observe the details and did not rush into action.

At the same time, I can't help but slander his second father Li Xian, your position is too high, you don't understand the importance of going down to the grassroots level, if you were cautious at that time, maybe I just need to get Li Shouli's Hanhan now, and I can wait for the succession with peace of mind.

Of course, this is just standing and talking without backache, and at that time, his father did not have such a group of hidden forces as the Former Clothes Society's Dare Warriors. And people have their own six rates in the East Palace, even if they want to do things, they can't look down on this unscrupulous style of picking and searching, and they are planted in a bright and upright manner.

As he pondered his little calculations, he chose a soft bow and stood at a distance of ten paces to shoot an arrow at a hardwood target. After firing fifty arrows, the right hand that drew the string was sore, and the left arm holding the bow was so numb by the rebound of the bow arm that it could barely lift it.

"His Highness's archery skills are more exquisite, and he is indeed quite talented in this way."

A burly master stepped forward to check the target, and then trotted back and said to Li Tong.

Li Tong knew what kind of person he was, and when he shot the dozen or so arrows and began to have full arm strength, as his strength gradually weakened, most of the back was off target. Overall, it's only the level of three out of ten, but compared with the first shot of the benevolent who didn't hit the arrow, of course, it's a significant improvement.

However, he does not force personal force, even if he goes to the battlefield, he mainly protects his life, kills the enemy, etc., and has his own soldiers to do it for him.

If he didn't think about making palace changes in the future, he might have to personally participate in street battles and the like, he didn't even bother to practice basic riding and archery, it can be seen that it is indeed not as good as the generation, and his grandfather Li Shimin is the real skill.

"General Yu, all the preparations have been assembled."

At this time, Li Zhan hurriedly walked in again, clenched his fists and said.

After Li Tong heard this, he nodded, shook his arms and walked out of the small hall, and ordered Shi Shi to report the specific number of attendees.

Today's Zuo Qianniu Wei, Qianniu has 16 people and 20 people, which is much more than the old system. There is no way, his grandmother has been in the shadow since the revolution, and although many noble children have been shaded, they have nowhere to place them, and they can only see the arrangement of stitches and needles.

As for the lower level of preparation and main battle, on the contrary, there are not enough members, and there are eighty-two members and one main battle. Although these people belong to the lower ranks, they belong to the group of Zuo Qianniuwei who really have combat effectiveness.

Some of them are recommended by the border generals to stay in the army, and some are recommended by the Zhuzhichong Mansion or the Commander Zhuguo or above, so there is still some guarantee in terms of force value. It is also because of the existence of these people that Zuo Qianniuwei will not be completely reduced to a showman.

"Today's test, riding and archery skills. You and other members, the yellow class, the arch from the battle, should have the will to carry this grace. ”

Li Tong didn't talk much nonsense, and explained the content before he arrived in the queue: "There is no need to talk about the old things and prevaricate, as long as I am in the Lingwei Mansion, there is an exam in October, how is the performance appraisal, enter your respective rank classes, and use the voucher for the summer officials of Southern Province." ”

When the people heard this, their faces suddenly became a little ugly, and they talked to each other, but after a while, no one dared to directly object. Most of the general's methods have been seen with their own eyes, and although they are from good backgrounds, they really dare not say that they can withstand the general's anger.

"May I ask the general, since the entrance examination, what is the standard?"

One of the standers raised his hand in the line to speak.

"There is no limit on the top, there is no standard on the bottom, there are ten members of the superior, ten members of the inferior, and the list is announced. As for the specific rewards and punishments, they will know when their respective ranks are full. ”

Li Tong didn't set any clear standards, after all, this is the Nanyawei Mansion, not private military training. If you really want to set any standard, you need to do it with the government affairs department.

But even such vague rules, with his current prestige, also have a lot of deterrent power. This can be seen from the current attendance personnel, although it is not a regular convocation, the attendance rate has also reached seventy or eighty percent, especially the thousands of cattle are prepared, and it is a standing in the field. After all, the closer you are to power, the more you can understand that this general is really awesome.
