Chapter 32: Bow and Arrow
Seeing Lin Fan's casual appearance, the rest of the inspection department was also temporarily frightened by Lin Fan, An Ning was secretly happy in his heart, he knew Lin Fan's current predicament, but he didn't dare to wait to see Lin Fan's jokes, afraid that Lin Fan would be exposed for a long time.
"Ahem!" He hurriedly coughed a few times and opened his mouth to relieve him.
An Ning followed Lin Fan's words and said: "Please rest assured, brothers, everyone is a family, I will definitely teach you all the tricks I have at the bottom of the box, and I will never hide it!" Come on, come on, let's take a look at these bows and arrows with me! ”
Everyone agreed, and An Ning led everyone to carefully examine the bows and arrows in their hands.
Because of Lin Fan's peerless archery skills, everyone's training momentum has increased a lot, and when they listen to An Ning explain various skills, they are obviously more attentive than before.
An Ning looked at everyone and said slowly: "Everyone knows that bows and arrows are divided into different styles, there are cavalry riding bows, and our foot soldiers use foot bows. In addition, some hunters also use some hunters' homemade hunting bows for hunting, and various crossbow arrows such as arm crossbows and bed crossbows, but we don't have these strong bows and crossbows yet. ”
"The quality of a bow directly affects the accuracy, power and range of the bow and arrow, which can often determine a person's life and death on the battlefield. It can be said that whether or not you can have a good bow is very important for every archer. ”
"And in addition to the bow, the arrow is just as important! Compared with the bow, the arrows are more diverse, there are horn arrows that transmit signals, there are arrows that sound the sound of the hammer, there are willow leaf arrows, phoenix feather arrows, white feather arrows, fly arrows, etc., according to different uses, arrows are also different. ”
"Feathered arrows are composed of arrowheads, shafts, and feathers. The sharp arrowhead is used to penetrate and kill, the rounded and straight shaft is used to maintain direction during flight, and the feathers are used to maintain balance. ”
"It is a matter of success or failure in the war and the lives of soldiers, so whether it is a bow or an arrow, the imperial court has strict requirements for it, and it is by no means something that can be done by just looking for a person."
"After talking about the types of bows and arrows, I'll talk about how to use them!"
"There are many different types of bows and arrows, and they are used in different ways. The following is our most commonly used step bow, the most common standing posture is to stand in a T-shape, the back is slightly back, hold the bow in the left hand, take the arrow in the right hand, the arrow tip is stuck on the string, the arrow passes through the tiger's mouth of the left hand, the arrow body is close to the bow body, the left arm is flat, the right hand pulls the bowstring back, after the bowstring is full, the arm is raised upward, and the target is shot out. ”
An Ning spoke at length as he picked up the bow and arrow and made movements, showing every detail for the soldiers to observe and experience for themselves.
After teaching for a while, let them open their own bows and arrows, shoot a few arrows at the target, and experience it firsthand. He watched from the sidelines, and when he saw what the sergeants were doing wrong, he corrected them one by one, explained their shortcomings and how they should be corrected, and taught them hand-in-hand.
Lin Fan stood outside the circle and watched motionlessly, but instead became a neglected outsider.
He saw that An Ning was teaching with all his heart, and everyone was hungry and thirsty for learning, so he kept nodding his head on the side, and thought: It's a good start, and this thought is not in vain!
After a while, he felt that his strength had regained a little, and he should barely be able to support this movement, so he quietly moved back while no one was paying attention, wanting to go back to his house to rest well.
With this move, he realized that he had used too much force just now, and some of the wounds on his body, especially on his back, which had not been completely healed, had collapsed, and blood kept oozing out of the wounds.
Lin Fan secretly smiled bitterly, during this period of time, there were always old injuries that had not healed and new injuries were added; If you continue to toss like this, you don't know when this injury will be complete.
In fact, it is okay to give Anning to do this kind of thing just now, but although Anning's archery is extraordinary, it is still inferior to himself after all, in case something goes wrong on the way, it is not beautiful, it is better not to do it.
Besides, from the time he came to the Inspection Department to the present, he has handed over everything to An Ning, and if he doesn't make a move, he will be looked down upon. After a long time, I'm afraid there will really be people who can't figure out who this inspector is! Now that he has made a shock, no one will dare to look down on him in the future, and it will be easier to command everyone in the future.
Lin Fan endured the pain, moved his steps with difficulty, walked and rested along the way, almost stopped one step at a time, beads of sweat the size of beans kept oozing from his forehead, dripping onto the ground, and whenever he met other people, he had to pretend to be casual, which was really a bit hard.
Later, Wang Hu was worried about his body, so he found an excuse to get out of the crowd, quickly caught up with him, and supported him from the side, so he was better.
Wang Hu helped him into the house, let him slowly sit on the bed to rest, and then went to the military doctor to get medicine.
When he came back from the military doctor, he carefully took off Lin Fan's shirt, threw away the crumpled clothes that had been stained with dried blood, and looked at Lin Fan's scarred back, even a big man like Wang Hu was a little unbearable!
While carefully helping Lin Fan with medicine, he said, "My lord, don't be reckless if you are so seriously injured." If you go on like this, don't think about your injuries! ”
Lin Fan smiled, his voice sounded a little weak, but he still said softly: "Brother Wang Hu, don't worry, these injuries are okay, as long as you can take these people from this inspection department well, these injuries are nothing!"
Wang Hu was helpless, he really couldn't bear Lin Fan not caring for his body like this, but after all, there was a difference between master and servant, and he had no position or method to control Lin Fan.
He is Lin Fan's subordinate, and he is not qualified to ask about the master's affairs, in fact, the few words he just said are already overdue, he could have stopped like this, no longer asked, and just do his duty.
But for the sake of Lin Fan, he could only rely on his age, put up a little bit of the elders' frame to teach him, and leaned on the old man to sell the old man: "My lord, don't mess around like this in the future, you are like this, if you let the old lady and Miss Qingya know, I don't know what it will be like to feel distressed!"
Lin Fan frowned, but he was not angry, he knew that Wang Hu was for his own good, and he would not be angry with others for this.
He smiled and said, "Okay, Brother Wang Hu, I know, I won't do it again in the future!"
Wang Hu also accepted it when he saw it, knowing that Lin Fan just listened to it in his heart, so he didn't talk much at the moment, but just quietly helped Lin Fan apply the medicine.
Thinking of his parents and Qingya, Lin Fan's heart unconsciously swelled with a touch of tenderness. Although the separation time is not long, in Lin Fan's opinion, this period of time has experienced so much, it really makes people feel a little like a different world. These people who make me miss don't know when we will see each other again!
The pain of the medicinal powder applied to the wound pulled Lin Fan back from his thoughts, and he grinned lightly and gasped!
Wang Hu, a big man with five big and three rough people, it's okay to let him go farming, but he doesn't know how to take medicine at all, and he is clumsy.
Although he had been extremely careful and slowed down his movements as much as possible, it was still inevitable that he would touch his wounds from time to time, making him grin and half dead.
However, this pain also shocked his sorrow and parting to the clouds, and it was already his perseverance to endure it without calling it out, Lin Fan secretly swore in his heart that he would rather die of pain in the future than let Wang Hu come to help him with medicine again.
After tossing for a long time, he finally finished the medicine, with the help of Wang Hu, Lin Fan wrapped the bandage, and enjoyed another service that was neither light nor heavy, before he found a shirt to put on again, rested on the bed, and gasped gently.
The wounds on my body were fine for a while, but the swelling of my arms and the soreness caused by the strain caused by the archery just now would probably take a few days to subside.
Outside the Inspection Division, it may be because Lin Fan's action this time was too unexpected, and he caught the bandits off guard; It may also be that every time the government has said that the suppression of bandits has been a small fight in the past few years, there has never been such a big move, so that the bandits will be mistaken, thinking that the government is really going to take action to clean them up.
This time, these bandits were frightened, and the mountain bandits everywhere were greatly restrained, shrinking their forces, and strictly guarding the mountain gate to prevent the government from really coming to attack the mountain.
In this way, the territory of Yongyang County was calm for a while, the bandits disappeared, and the people could finally settle down for a while.
And as the news of Lin Fan's actions this time spread, the people nearby also knew that there was a new inspector in Yongyang County who was really not afraid of death and wanted to suppress bandits. The name Lin Fan has gradually become known, and there is a tendency to spread farther and farther.
Seeing that the inspection department had nothing to do, the training was gradually on the right track, and everything was unfolding in an orderly manner, Lin Fan Suoxing handed over these things to An Ning and Wang Hu to take care of, and he became the shopkeeper, let everything go, enjoy this rare quiet time, and recuperate with peace of mind.
After a period of recuperation, his injuries began to gradually improve.
Quiet times are always short-lived, and they have passed leisurely for nearly a month.
With the passage of time, unconsciously, there is only a short tail left in spring, and the sky is getting hotter and hotter!
On this day, Lin Fan moved a stool to find a piece of greenery to cool off, avoiding the increasingly fierce sun, and couldn't help muttering: "It's only the middle of March, why is it so hot, how can people live in the future!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the teapot in his hand and drank a big sip of herbal tea, looking so comfortable.
In fact, Lin Fan is completely standing and talking without backache, he is an official, and under the pretext of recuperating from his injuries, he can be lazy openly, enjoying the shade and breeze here, and tea waiting.
And next to him is the training ground, those who are soldiers don't have this blessing, one by one they practice under the scorching sun, compared to the past, even their bodies are darker several times, and they have lost weight several times.
However, don't look at the weight loss, their food volume has increased instead of decreasing, every time they buy a few carts of vegetables, they will see the bottom in a few days, and the guy who is really busy has already complained to Lin Fan several times, until Lin Fan promised to equip him with a deputy.
Everyone's food has increased, Lin Fan is naturally not surprised, the training intensity is so large, and the amount of food does not increase, so there is a ghost, which just shows that the training is effective.
Sometimes, the amount of food is also related to combat power, and the one who eats a lot is not necessarily the rice bucket, but may also be the strongest one.
