Chapter 8 Autumn Examinations on the School Grounds
However, the heavens did not grant people's wishes.
In the fifth year of Zhongping, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty consciously abandoned the government and the people in various places were in turmoil, and began to work diligently on the government. Set up the eight captains of the West Garden. Xiao Huangmen Jian Shuo was appointed as the captain of the upper army, Yuan Shao of the Tiger Ben Zhonglang was appointed as the captain of the middle army, Bao Hong, the captain of the Tun Cavalry, Bao Hong, the captain of the Tun Cavalry, Cao Cao of the Yilang was appointed as the captain of the military academy, Zhao Rong was appointed as the left captain of the auxiliary army, Feng Fang was the right captain of the auxiliary army, Xia Mou was appointed as the left captain, and Chun Yuqiong was the right captain, all of which were under the unified command of Jian Shuo.
Jian Shuo was originally a favored eunuch, but now he is in power, and the only person he is afraid of is the general He Jin, so he surrounded people and horses to strengthen his strength!
Ding Yuan saw the opportunity and ordered Zhang Liao and Zhang Yang to go to Jingzhao to take up their posts. And after Zhang Liao left, the heavy responsibility of training cavalry fell to Lu Xiaoshu.
Lu Xiaoshu had to go to the cavalry camp in the east of the city to take office, but there were many names in this cavalry drill, and Lu Xiaoshu didn't know anything about it, so he couldn't help but feel a big headache. Fortunately, Ding Yuan's cavalry has been in the army for a long time, and he has his own training outline, and Lu Xiaoshu only needs to follow the cat and draw the tiger.
On this day, Lu Xiaoshu practiced riding and archery in the school field, and saw that the soldiers were skilled, far superior to himself. He secretly decided to practice riding and archery, and lingered in the barracks all day long, not realizing that time had flown by.
Yan Xiuli has been a little depressed recently, she changed into men's clothes early in the morning, and wandered around the street corner alone, the hateful thief suddenly disappeared recently, and she inquired several times before she knew that he had gone to the east of the city to train troops! Do you want to go to the east of the city to find him unlucky?
Just thinking about it, I suddenly realized that someone had blocked the way, and sure enough, it was three childhood playmates who were friends at the time! The three of them obviously looked like a gentleman, and shouted at the top of their voices: "Hey, isn't this a show boy?" Don't you seek revenge today? With that, the three of them laughed in unison!
The four of them have known each other since childhood, and when Yan Xiuli wears men's clothes, they often call her Xiugongzi.
Yan Xiuli's face turned red, and she snorted and asked, "Where are you three going to make trouble?" ”
The three of them were surprised and looked at each other, and one of them was surprised: "Don't you know that today is the autumn exam on campus?" "You must know that in the past, Yan Xiuli was always in the school barracks, and she couldn't be more concerned about such a big thing.
Yan Xiuli heard this, Fang Jue time turned, and in a blink of an eye, it was already the time for the school exam. Recently, I was so depressed that I forgot about such a major event, so the three of them went to the school together.
Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the army is very strict, weekday training never relaxed, riding and archery as the primary indicator, as well as wrestling, fighting, juju and other training content, the border army is often to pursue the Huns as the daily training subject of recruits! In short, the training of the Han army was carried out in the form of actual combat. Every late autumn of the following year, both the internal and external armies must conduct autumn examinations and assessments, and the good will be rewarded and the bad will be punished!
The autumn examination assessment of the Jinyang garrison was naturally personally responsible for the assassin Shi Ding Yuan, mainly assessing the cavalry and archery skills of the soldiers and soldiers.
Ding Yuan stood on the platform, his expression was solemn, he looked around at the generals under the stage, and saw that the generals were standing across the horses, everyone was excited and eager to try, the 100,000-step cavalry army array was orderly, and the murderous spirit soared into the sky, and he was greatly satisfied, and said loudly: "Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, how many heroes and warriors have fought in the south and the north, so that the four Yi surrendered, and the five were peaceful. Tonight, there is a small rampant rebellion, and our sergeants are all eating the king's luck, and we should train diligently and move forward bravely to live up to my true character as a man! ”
The army looked trembling and shouted in unison: "Long live the Great Han!" "The momentum is magnificent!
Ding Yuan waved his hand and paused and said: "Today, the Autumn Cao army entered the West Mountain to hunt, and those who got the most will be rewarded, and those who don't get it will be punished!" ”
He also ordered someone to carry out an object, only to see that the whole body was overflowing, and it was a double-edged halberd! The halberd body is painted with a golden dragon, the halberd blade is sharp, and the cold stars are dotted!
Ding Yuan said: "This halberd is called the painting rod Fang Tian halberd, the whole body is cast in stainless steel, weighing forty-eight pounds, it is a peerless divine soldier!" I will give this halberd to the winner this time! All the generals set off at the time of the hour and returned to the camp at the time of the descent! ”
Everyone is breathing heavily, and on the battlefield, if there are divine soldiers like ten lives, how can they not be crazy about this? Everyone is determined to do their best to take this artifact for their own use.
Lu Xiaoshu is also determined to win, isn't Fang Tian's halberd special for Lu Bu? I have practiced riding and archery for many days, and I should be useful!
With Ding Yuan's order, the army entered the West Mountain, and the autumn exercise officially began. An army of 100,000 poured deep into the mountains, splashing the ground like a scoop of water, and scattered in all directions in a blink of an eye, without a trace.
Lu Xiaoshu rode his horse, but when he saw the dense trees, he thought that it was unbelievable for the ancients to train soldiers! There must be fierce birds and beasts in such deep mountains, if you encounter difficulties, you will not have to worry about your life!
All the way to the road, I saw the elk and hare in the mountains frightened, and was about to shoot arrows with a bow, only to hear the sound of arrows passing by and startling away a herbivorous elk.
Lu Xiaoshu was furious, Xishan is so big, who will snatch the prey with him? Looking back, it was Yan Xiuli pretending to be vigorous, looking heroic, and was riding a horse with a bow and smiling proudly!
Lu Xiaoshu hadn't seen her for many days, and when they saw her at this moment, they only felt that she was much more hateful than before, thinking that she had already let go of her grudges, but who knew that she had come to this deep mountain to make trouble!
Lu Xiaoshu said: "What are you doing here, aren't you afraid of death when there are fierce beasts in the mountains?" ”
Yan Xiuli said proudly: "I want you to take care of it, I will go if you go to heaven and earth!" ”
Lu Xiaoshu was speechless for a while, and shook his head: "Then you follow closely, don't be eaten by fierce beasts, I won't save you!" ”
Yan Xiuli snorted and said, "Don't talk big, with me today, you don't want to shoot prey!" ”
Lu Xiaoshu was angry for a while, and he didn't say much, so he rode his horse. Yan Xiuli also rode up and followed closely behind, but she was afraid that he would run away!
The two of them rode horses in the mountains, although there were many small beasts in the mountains, Lu Xiaoshu always couldn't shoot! was either frightened away by Yan Xiuli in advance, or was shot by herself, and she didn't get anything! I was also amazed that she was superb in archery, and she was able to come later!
Yan Xiuli's face was full of sneering and ridicule along the way, saying that the general was not as good as a woman, and it was better to go home and sweep the garbage, which made Lu Xiaoshu angry.
Lu Xiaoshu saw that she immediately camelized two or three antelopes and several hares, and he was envious in his heart, and discussed with her: "I see that you have so many camels, and your horses are strangely tired, otherwise I will help you camel a few?" ”
Yan Xiuli sneered: "If you want to shoot yourself, do you want to cheat?" ”
Lu Xiaoshu laughed and laughed, at this time, the two war horses suddenly panicked, no matter how the two of them drove them, they only stopped moving in place!
Lu Xiaoshu's heart sank, but he felt that the situation was not good, and the small beasts in the mountains and fields that could be seen everywhere had lost their traces! Hurriedly turned around and shouted at Yan Xiuli: "The situation is not right, go quickly!" ”
Yan Xiuli was just about to make a mockery, but the war horse under her crotch suddenly stood up, threw the unsuspecting Yan Xiuli out, pulled her hooves and galloped away!
Lu Xiaoshu was shocked when he saw this, took advantage of the horse's momentum to leap over, and rolled to the ground with Yan Xiuli in his arms!
Yan Xiuli was frightened and looked confused, and when she realized that she was already in Lu Xiaoshu's arms, she was suddenly embarrassed and angry, and was about to struggle to get up and settle accounts with him, but when she saw Lu Xiaoshu making a silent gesture, she looked ahead, with a solemn face!
Yan Xiuli looked at her gaze, and couldn't help but be pale and colorless!
I saw a brown bear in the forest not far away, the size of which was like a mountain, baring its teeth and paying attention, and it was slowly coming!
