Chapter 431: Gan Ning Surrenders
The next day, Yuan Xi got up early and took Wen Chou to the school to pick a few good horses. All those who were selected were controlled and strengthened by Yuan Xi, and their bodies became extremely tall.
"Is the lord going hunting?" Wen Chou asked.
"yes."
"Do you need to bring a guard?"
Yuan Xi glanced back at the camp and said with a smile: "Go and select two hundred guards, those who are good at riding and archery, and hunt with me." ”
"Yes."
Wen Chou returned to the camp to personally select.
It didn't take long.
Gan Ning ran over with a red face and red ears, looking a little flustered.
Yuan Xi saw him and teased: "General Gan, did you sleep well last night?" ”
"Okay..." Gan Ning actually stammered a little: "Thank you for taking care of the general." ”
"It's not about taking care of it, it's just doing the friendship of the landlord." Yuan Xi brought a white war horse and said, "General Gan, what do you think of this horse?" ”
Only then did Gan Ning find that the horses circling around were very tall and strong, with erect hair, which was very vicious. Especially the white horse led by Yuan Xi is even more snow-white, and his eyes are bright.
At a glance, you can see that these are good horses that are rare to see in a century.
"This horse... Too tall? Gan Ning couldn't help but stepped forward and helped the horse.
Yuan Xi smiled: "Our horses in Hebei are all like this. It's fast, it's powerful. If you put heavy armor on them, you won't feel tired if you travel hundreds of miles a day. This is my magic weapon to defeat Xianbei and the Xiongnu. ”
"What a good horse." The more Gan Ning looked, the more excited he became, and asked, "Can I test ride it in Xia?" ”
"Of course. This horse is for you. Yuan Xi handed the reins to Gan Ning, and then turned over a black horse himself. At this time, Wen Chou came over with two hundred guards.
Yuan Xi said to them, "Go find your mount yourself and keep up." ”
"Drive..."
With a few shouts, Yuan Xi, Gan Ning, Wen Chou... Horseback riding out of the school grounds.
The guards did not dare to slack off, borrowed horses from Zhang Jaw, and hurried to follow.
................
Come to the outskirts.
Patches of woods.
Gan Ning couldn't help but say: "The general is coming down to hunt, is there something to say?" ”
"Of course. But... Before we talked, you had to change what you called me. ”
"Salutation? What does the general mean? Gan Ning didn't understand at all.
Yuan Xi smiled: "You still call me a general?" Didn't they all call me my lord last night? He also said that he would be the governor of the capital under my command and help me calm the world. How did you forget it after only one night? ”
"Huh?"
Gan Ning was dumbfounded.
He didn't have any impression in his mind, did he really say this?
"The general is kidding, right?"
"Who is kidding you. You ask Wen Chou, he was next to him yesterday. Yuan Xi glanced at Wen Chou. Wen Chou knew Yuan Xi's thoughts, and hurriedly replied: "Well, that's right, General Gan did say it last night.... ”
"In life, faith is the most important. General Gan won't break his word, right? Yuan Xi said.
"Hahaha..."
Gan Ning burst out laughing.
After laughing, he said: "People say that Cao Cao is a traitor, but in my opinion, the general is not inferior to Cao Cao at all." ”
"Haha... Just praise me. Yuan Xi took out the longbow from under the saddle and pulled it a few times: "Do you want to say that I am more treacherous than Cao Cao?" Actually, it's no wonder to me, who made you so talented? I like it tight. General Gan, our Hebei Army crisscrosses the north and south, with very few defeats, and is known as the first division in the world. But none of the sailors could lead the troops. I want to hand over all my navy army to you, and you will be the governor of the navy, I don't know if you are willing? ”
Sou!
Gan Ning was about to answer, when he saw a deer running by in the distance and shot it with an arrow.
"Good archery!"
Yuan Xi suddenly had an idea and said, "General Gan, how about we make a bet?" ”
"What bet?"
"Take one stick of incense as a limit to see who hunts the most. If you hunt a lot, I listen to you, you want to leave, want to stay, or want to go back to Jiangdong, all you want. And, I will help you eliminate Sun Quan's dissatisfaction with you... ”
As soon as Yuan Xi's words came to this, Gan Ning couldn't bear it anymore and hurriedly asked, "Is the general serious?" ”
"But if... I won by luck, you have to be like Yu Ban, Li Dian, and Le Jin, serve me, and recognize me as the master. Do you dare to bet? ”
Gan Ning was very excited, waved his hand and smiled: "Why don't you dare?" ”
As a water thief across the Yangtze River, Gan Ning's archery skills can be called a must. Because on the water, most of the time, it is a long-distance attack, and archery skills are not good, which directly affects the battle of the army.
If it was compared to anything else, Gan Ningxu would retreat, but compared to archery, he was absolutely sure.
"Good!"
Yuan Xi said: "Let's start here." ”
"Wait..." Gan Ning smiled and said, "General, don't you fake?" Let your men hunt for you, and then count it as yours? If you want to compare, you have to be fair. We walked together, no more than ten feet apart. ”
"Okay, it's all up to you." Yuan Xicai is not afraid, anyway, there is a beast control system, and all the beasts in the world obey their orders, and they are afraid that they will not be able to hunt prey? Together with Gan Ning, you can not only hunt, but also destroy Gan Ning, and you have a greater chance of winning.
"Drive..."
Yuan Xi and Gan Ning drove their horses together.
Wen Chou followed behind with the guards.
Running out more than ten feet away, he saw two adult deer, Xu was frightened and fled in different directions.
"Whoosh!" Ganning quickly grabbed an arrow and shot the nearest deer over him.
Yuan Xi's archery skills were not as good as Gan Ning's, and he was not sure of killing with one blow, so he did not release arrows. But as Yuan Xi ran forward, he got closer and closer to the deer, and when it was five zhang away, the deer stopped moving.
Sou!
Yuan Xi shot an arrow, and the deer was killed on the spot.
"Okay, hahaha..." Yuan Xi turned around and said, "General Gan, it seems that my archery skills are also good, if you want to defeat me, it is not easy." ”
"Really? Looking down, the general's luck seems to be better than archery. Gan Ning's words seemed to mean something. He clearly saw that the deer suddenly stopped, motionless, and was less than five zhang away from Yuan Xi. At such a close distance, even a blind man can shoot. This does not mean that Yuan Xi's archery skills are good, it can only be said to be luck.
"Hahaha... Let's see, drive.... Yuan Xi left first.
Gan Ning followed.
Hunting is a very interesting thing, you can practice archery, show military might, in ancient times when there was a lack of entertainment, hunting can be the first choice for entertainment, and it is also the favorite of military generals.
But here in Yuan Xi, the essential pleasure of hunting has been lost.
All the beasts, obediently standing still in front of him, let them shoot, like killing pigs in a slaughterhouse, what fun is there?
...........
Hunting for half a day.
Gan Ning obtained thirty-three prey.
Yuan Xi is forty-three.
There are ten more heads.
Such a result is normal in the eyes of Wen Chou and the guards. But Gan Ning found it difficult to accept, his archery skills were among the best in Jiangdong, and his hunting skills were rarely rivaled. But it was really wronged to lose at the hands of a person whose archery skills are not very good.
