Chapter 241: Martial Arts

"Ladies and gentlemen, since you and others have now chosen to go to Jiangling and want to pass the assessment to enlist in the army, then you must have prepared for the hard life of the military."

"Our army's military law is harsh, I think you have already heard of it!"

Speaking of this, Guan Ping couldn't help but look around the audience again, his eyes moved slightly, and his words shouted again: "Now, I will ask you again here." ”

"Are you ready to accept life in the army?"

When the voice landed, the audience was silent!

The hundreds of young middle-aged strong men gathered around the audience, listening to this fierce shout at this moment, couldn't help but frown, their eyes were furrowed, their faces were blank, and they thought quietly.

They came from various counties in Jingzhou, and even some of them came from the land of Bashu, and they basically knew more or less about the Han army's military discipline, and Guan Yu, as the commander, was even more law-enforcing the law.

At this moment, as Guan Ping emphasized discipline again, a few middle-aged people who were originally determined couldn't help but show an embarrassed look.

Obviously, some people are the children of wealthy families, and they are used to eating and drinking, so they naturally have no concept of hardship.

After the words settled, Guan Ping continued to stand on the platform, his eyes fixed on the places below without saying a word, waiting quietly.

Looking around, he was silently observing the changes in the demeanor of the crowd, and then calculating which people should be eliminated directly.

About two quarters of an hour passed slowly, but no one retreated, and hundreds of people still held sharp weapons in their hands, standing resolutely in place.

In the middle of the sound, Guan Ping stood proudly and said: "Okay, the time for you to think about it has passed, since you and the others have no one to leave, but continue to stay here, that is to fight for fame and fortune in the army, and to glorify the ancestors." ”

Speaking of this, his face changed suddenly, and he suddenly became violent, and said sharply: "In this case, then Ben will start to read out the assessment subjects, those who have passed the test will stay, and those who are eliminated will leave on their own!" ”

"Do you have any objections?"

"Nope!"

As soon as the words fell, the hundreds of people below suddenly erupted into extremely strong roars, and they all responded loudly.

Listening to the momentum coming now, Guan Ping on the stage saw the determination on their faces, and his heart also showed a hint of relief, and the next second he slowly took a silk book from the hand of Liu Jia, the personal guard.

This silk book is the content of the assessment.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since our army entered Jingzhou, I have told you and other people who practice martial arts to gather together for a common assessment, which is the first time that my Han has done it, so I will hereby nominate this assessment and selection as a martial artist."

"Wuju, a total of three major items, calculated by the point system, winning a game will accumulate one point, if all three are defeated, it means that the points failed, this time it will be eliminated, you can return on your own, and you don't need to continue to participate in any ideas behind."

"First of all, the first challenge of martial arts, the lottery is decided, and those who draw the same physical object will compete on stage, the winner will get points, and the loser will step down to prepare to participate in the latter two."

"After the challenge is over, we will continue to start the second ring match, two by two on the stage to fight, the winner will accumulate one point, continue to defend and wait for the follow-up challenge, and the loser will step down."

"At the end of the ring match, you will enter the third team competition, which will be organized and cooperated by you, form a team and then conduct a melee, and the battle time is half an hour, and the winner who continues to stand on the stage after the end of the time will accumulate a total of five points."

"Those with less than 10 points will also be eliminated."

After a while, Guan Ping slowly read the assessment method and content on the silk book aloud to the hundreds of people below.

As soon as these words fell, Guan Ping's face was serious, and he said sharply: "Okay, let's start!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he walked to the rear general, and then sat down straight down to watch carefully.

As for this time, on the military academy field below, as if there was a fierce smell of gunpowder in the air, a strong man with a sharp weapon in his hand couldn't help but rub his hands at this moment, his face was resolute, and he stared at the people next to him with a defensive face, full of vigilance!

For a while, with the announcement of the assessment method, the school suddenly changed color and surging in the school.

After a commotion, Zhao Zhong, the chief officer in charge of the martial arts at this time, led more than a dozen armor soldiers to stop in front of hundreds of young people, stared at them with his eyes tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Just now, the major general has informed you of the content and rules, so the general will not repeat it. ”

"Next, let's start the draw and prepare for the challenge."

As soon as the words fell, the young and strong group began to move, and they all held the sharp weapon in their hands.

After a few moments, the crowd drew lots in order.

"Okay, the draw is over, and the two strong men who have drawn No. 1 will compete on stage."

The spread of this kind of capitalization should actually be the counting method that arose during the period of Wu Zetian, the empress of the Middle Tang Dynasty, which can be regarded as a change made by Guan Ping after he came to this era.

He felt that although capitalized numbers were more obscure than other numbers, they still had an extremely obvious advantage.

For example, when lower-level officials allocate money and grain, due to the immutability of capitalized figures, it can also effectively curb the phenomenon of corruption in falsely changing figures and reporting false figures.

Therefore, this is also Guan Ping's decision to vigorously promote the use of uppercase numbers in Jingzhou as a pilot, and the effect is good in the above table Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong, and then in Shuzhong.

As soon as the words fell, in the crowd, there were two young people about twenty-five years old who walked straight out with guns, ready to go straight to the high platform in front.

"Wait."

However, they had only walked a few steps before Zhao Zhong suddenly stopped them, and then waved his hand to signal the weapon rack on the side, and then said loudly to the hundreds of people: "This is just a martial arts selection, not a life-and-death struggle, and it is not easy for the two sides to fight with real swords and guns." ”

"In order to avoid unnecessary damage, you should always change into the wooden weapons prepared for you by our army during the fight."

"Please, two of you!"

After Zhao Zhong explained the situation, he stretched out his hand to the young man who had just walked out.

Hearing this, the two of them did not delay, handed over the weapons they were holding to the armor soldiers next to them for safekeeping, and then went straight to the weapon rack and took the wooden weapons they were good at.

The school is in the middle.

A ring about one zhang wide and two zhang long stands in the middle, and several flags are wrapped around the pillars, slowly fluttering.

The young man who was the first to fight was armed with a knife, and the young man with a gun jumped directly onto the stage and stood looking at each other!

"Dude, be polite!"

"General Zhao has just said that this is just a martial arts selection, there is no need for Brother Tai to have such a strong murderous aura, right?"

After taking the stage, the young man with the gun was about seven feet five inches long, with a smile on his face, and first bowed to the young man with the knife, and said with a slow smile.

"Humph!"

"Today's selection, I, Tan Quan, will win!"

"Don't talk nonsense, take it."

It's just that the other party didn't care about the kindness of the young man with the gun, but his face was cold and he said coldly.

Before the words fell, the knife-wielding young man took the preemptive strike with a big knife in his hand, and in an instant, he killed the gun-wielding young man, and then quickly lifted up with a knife and slashed straight down.

The target was the head of the young man with the gun.

Seeing this, the young man with the gun stared at him, and his smiling complexion suddenly converged, and in just a short time, he held the spear in his hand and directly picked it up, hitting the opponent's big knife.

"Bang!"

In the blink of an eye, a knife collided with a gun in the ring.

However, Tan Quan's knife strength is not weak, and the strength of the young man with the gun is slightly insufficient when the two sides compete for strength, and he can't bear the gravity in the end, and he can't help but be repelled a few steps!

Seeing this, Tan Quan seized the opportunity to give up, and couldn't help but continue to intensify the onslaught with a knife, chasing after him.

"Boy, suffer death!"

"Hahaha."

For a while, he became more and more confident, and couldn't help laughing.

"Dangdang!"

A collision sound sounded quickly, and every minute and second passed slowly!

In about two quarters of an hour, the two had been fighting for more than thirty years.

At this time, in the ring, the situation presented was that Tan Quan had been chasing and fighting with a knife, and the young man with the gun seemed to have no power to fight back, so he could only block or dodge with a gun.

On the school field below, among the crowd, the rest of the young and middle-aged people who were still watching the battle at this time were also watching the battle carefully, and they couldn't help but talk to each other at this moment.

"Alas, it seems that Lao Wei has encountered hard stubble this time."

"Challenger, it looks like he's going to lose."

At this moment, several young people who were good friends with the gun-wielding youth couldn't help muttering at this time, with a worried face.

Merely.

Zhao Zhong, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, was unmoved, and his eyes were still firmly fixed on the battle in the ring.

At present, as the chief examiner, he will not favor anyone, no matter who wins and arranges to join the army, it is to strengthen the strength of his own grassroots officers.

Merely.

Will be on the stage, next to the main seat.

At this moment, the guards on the side watched Liu Jia for a long time, and couldn't help muttering: "This young man with a gun is congenitally deficient in strength, and he has been suppressed by the other party from the beginning. ”

"Looks like we're going to lose the last one of the challenges."

"No, Ben will not see."

When the words fell, Guan Ping, who was sitting on the side, heard his sigh, so he said indifferently.

"Major General, how do you say that?"

"That makes the spear youth obviously weak, he has been suppressed by the young man who wields the knife, and he is at a disadvantage, at most he can't support it with ten moves, how can there be any reason to win?"

"Liu Jia, you are also a knife maker, you can't look at it like this, you are taking a closer look, can you see the clues?"

Hearing this, Liu Jia was stunned, but he also took two steps forward, his eyes widened, and he carefully stared at the battle situation below.

He looked at it for a while, and Guan Ping smiled and said with a smile: "Actually, you were all confused by that young man." ”

"The general can see that in addition to being unprepared for the first blow and being repulsed, this young man quickly adjusted his deployment and has been deliberately dodging or blocking, but he has never taken the initiative to attack or force the opponent's attack."

"Because the initial blow has made him see that his own strength can only be used to attack the enemy's strength, which is obviously not a wise move, so he chose to procrastinate, and then wait for the opportunity."

"Liu Jia, you should know that those of us who use knives often have to go all out to force the enemy with the strongest momentum every time they cut out, so this is also the key to our long-term war."

"On the other hand, guns are lightweight, and people who use guns pay more attention to flexibility, pay attention to skillful face, and save physical strength to the greatest extent, so they are conducive to protracted warfare."

"Now, the young man who made the gun consciously conserve his strength, I'm afraid that there will really be a chance for the Jedi to turn the tables in the end."

After analyzing it, Guan Ping looked indifferent, and then smiled: "But this person is a malleable talent!" ”

"In a competition, his reaction was not weak at all, and he was able to adjust the deployment on the spot, which is commendable!"

As soon as the words fell, the smile on Guan Ping's face became stronger and stronger at this time, and he continued to watch the battle carefully.
