Chapter 187: Two Arrows Salvo and Consecutive Arrows

When Yang Jian walked into the rooftop courtyard, Yang Lihua also stood up with her mother, and took the initiative to leave her seat and stand on the side seat on the right side of Dugu Jialuo. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info according to the Sui system, the left is the top, the right is the bottom. Yang Lihua obviously thought about her identity, and took the initiative to give up the seat in the center to her father Yang Jian, and the seat on the left side of her parents to the crown prince Yang Yong, who was the prince.

Hearing Yang Jian ask him to give a legal order for the two brothers to test arrows, Yang Lihua bowed down and saluted her father, and responded: "Father and mother are present, how can my daughter talk nonsense?" Tonight, the daughter came to the palace, just to greet her parents, and now Eying is still in the Azong Mansion, taken care of by several maids, and the daughter is about to say goodbye to her parents after sitting down. ”

Yang Jian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard that Yang Lihua was about to retire before the banquet began, and then seemed to have a comprehension of the eldest daughter's true intention to enter the palace tonight, walked in front of Yang Lihua, twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Since you have come, you might as well sit with your father and your mother." For the father has ordered Taichang Temple to compose a new "Bright Moon Song", and when the boys have competed in archery, it is not too late for you to listen to it. While holding Yang Lihua, he pointed to the position next to the left of the center seat, and said to her: "Tonight, in terms of the elder and younger, whether it is the monarch or the minister, among the brothers and sisters, you are the elder, so you should naturally sit on the ground and see the land, and you say it." ”

Yang Yong hurriedly replied, "What my father said is that the eldest sister should naturally sit on the upper seat. ”

"Since Lihua doesn't want to make an order, then I will make a rule for you." Yang Jian ordered two palace attendants to help Yang Lihua to the seat on the left and sat down, turned around, faced everyone, and said loudly, "This courtyard is a hundred steps wide from north to south and east to west. Two days ago, the Persian state sent an envoy to Chang'an, and gave me a golden brocade robe, and I took it out to make a colorful head, and whoever could hit the bull's-eye with three arrows, I gave him this brocade robe on the spot. ”

The princes and princesses in the Tiantai courtyard immediately let out a burst of admiration.

"Father, since you have set a heavy reward, and your sons are not talented, you are also willing to compete with the second and fourth brothers." King Yang Jun of Qin was also eager to try.

"That's good, among the princes present tonight, in addition to seeing the land, they can all try their skills." Yang Jian glanced at Yang Yong and readily agreed.

In this way, the arrow competition launched by Yang Xiu to Yang Guang became a game in which the four princes except the crown prince Yang Yong competed for archery skills and won the Persian brocade robe, and the atmosphere in the courtyard immediately became lively.

At that moment, eunuchs and palace people erected three targets in the courtyard, and measured the distance of thirty steps away as the position for the four princes to stand and shoot arrows, and everyone present, including Dugu Jialuo and Yang Lihua, focused their eyes on the four princes.

"Fifth brother, you are the youngest, so you will shoot this first arrow." Yang Guang instructed the eunuchs who accompanied him to hand over an iron tire bow to the youngest Han king, Yang Liang, and said with a smile.

Although Han Wang Yang Liang is only eight years old this year, he is not stupid at all, and he realized that the second brother wanted to use a preemptive tactic at the moment, and finally made a move. He had no intention of making such a limelight in front of his father and mother, so he smiled mischievously at Yang Guang and excused himself: "I can't even pull this bow, how can I be the opponent of the three brothers, it's better for the fourth brother to shoot this arrow." ”

Yang Xiu was determined to win, overpowering Yang Guang in front of his parents, and he was not humble at the moment, he took the iron-tired bow from the eunuch's hand, bent the bow and set the arrow, aimed at one of the bullseyes thirty steps away, and shot an arrow with a whoosh.

"King Yue hit the bull's-eye with an arrow." Immediately, a eunuch singing the target shouted.

There was a burst of cheers in the courtyard.

King Yang Jun's arrow technique was slightly inferior, and the first arrow was shot, although he also hit one of the targets, but he failed to hit the bull's-eye.

It was Yang Guang's turn to make a move. He took the iron-tired bow from Yang Jun's hand, first stretched out his hand and pulled it to test the weight of the bow, and then took a feathered arrow from the eunuch's hand that had pulled out the arrow, put it on the bowstring, and without aiming, he raised his hand and shot an arrow. In the past few months, he followed Changsun Sheng to learn the art of riding and archery, and practiced the skills of archery on horseback, although because there was no foundation in archery before (before crossing), it was far less than the progress of Li Yuan and others who accompanied his classmates, but an arrow hit the bull's-eye thirty steps away, and he thought that it was not difficult for him, so as soon as he shot tonight, he wanted to give Yang Xiu a dismount, so that he could learn the power of "one stone and two eagles" riding archery.

"King Jin hit the bullseye with an arrow."

Everyone in the audience saw that Yang Guang raised an arrow in his hand, and even hit the bull's-eye with an arrow, and the archery method was obviously still above Yang Xiu, and they couldn't help but let out a sound of admiration.

"My father said, tonight's competition is on the head, not the speed of archery, this first arrow, my second brother and I are tied, let's try again." Yang Xiu muttered unconvinced, and reached out to snatch the bow from Yang Guang's hand and shoot again.

Yang Guang didn't want to be in the limelight at tonight's banquet in his heart, but he was aroused by Yang Xiu's aggressive arrogance, and while taking the initiative to hand over the iron tire bow in his hand to Yang Xiu, he deliberately retorted and said: "Can the fourth brother shoot two arrows at the same time and hit two bullseyes?" ”

Tonight's archery contest was the first provoked by Yang Xiu, and he refused to show his cowardice in front of Yang Guang easily, and immediately responded: "Two arrows in a salvo is two arrows in a salvo, what's the big deal." So saying, he took two arrows from the eunuch's hand, and at the same time put them on the bowstring, and first aimed at one of the arrows on the left.

In order to avoid being attacked by multiple enemies at the same time, Changsun Sheng has been able to shoot five arrows salvo after years of careful thinking and repeated exercises, and the five arrows shot out at the same time hit the five enemy soldiers rushing forward. Yang Guang followed Changsun Sheng to learn the art of riding and archery for only three months, and it was difficult to shoot two arrows at the same time, even if two arrows were fired in a salvo, it was difficult to hit the bull's-eye at the same time, and the reason why he provoked Yang Xiu to compete with himself was actually because although he did not grasp that the two arrows hit the two bullseyes at the same time, he also practiced the skills of two arrows salvo many times in private, and he thought that the two arrows shot at the same time would not miss the target, and Yang Xiuru had never tried to shoot a salvo of two arrows, but he was afraid that the two arrows shot could not even shoot a target.

There were two swishs, two arrows flew out one after the other, almost simultaneously nailed firmly to the two bullseyes thirty paces away.
