Chapter 368: The Ring

On the martial arts field, the three thousand armor soldiers had already polished their eyes and waited for the start of the competition between the twelve warriors. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 And now the twelve warriors are also excited, waiting for Cao De's order.

Cao De took the bow handed over by Pei Yuanshao. Cao De held a bow in his left hand and an arrow in his right hand. Then, Cao De nodded to Pei Yuanshao behind him and signaled that he was ready.

And Pei Yuanshao waved straight ahead, and a wooden pole about two feet high was picked up by a soldier. The soldier's movements quickly attracted everyone's attention, but no one looked up at the stick except the people on the podium.

At this time, Cao De put the arrow in his right hand on the bowstring, and the place where the arrow pointed was the top of the wooden pole. Only then did the soldiers raise their heads, and they also noticed that there was something else at the top of the pole.

However, at this moment, Cao De made a move.

"Whoosh!"

Half a breath later!

“duang!”

"The joust begins!" Pei Yuanshao said loudly at the moment when his voice sounded!

Only then did the soldiers understand what had just happened.

Just now, the wooden pole raised by the soldier was a gong on it, and the bow and arrow in Cao De's hand were aimed at this gong.

This gong was not very far from Cao De, only about eighty paces, but because this gong was held in the air with a pole, it kept shaking. Therefore, after Cao De's arrow hit and pierced the target, it immediately attracted the cheers of the soldiers.

Shooting a moving target is not a master. The man who can shoot arrows is Cao De. It's not that even if Cao De hits the target, everyone has to applaud because of Cao De's identity.

What Cao De showed today is just a very ordinary archery, not to mention far. In front of Cao De, most of the 30,000 archers in the three battalions of the Zhongwei Battalion and other battalions could complete Cao De's arrow.

In that case, then why did Cao De shoot an arrow. The reason is very simple, Cao De is that I want to tell the soldiers that I am not a pampered person, and I am not an incompetent lord who is powerless.

Moreover, in fact, although Cao De had learned archery from Xiahou Yuan, Cao De's archery skills were really not on the table. It's good to be able to do this today.

Although Cao De's archery skills are not good, and his performance is not good, it is really the first time that such an announcement has started the competition. However, the soldiers soon ran out of time to think about Cao De's archery skills. Because, the twelve contestants have already begun!

Twelve people, caught in pairs, divided into six groups, and each climbed onto a competition platform that had been set up a long time ago. Since the Central Guard Battalion, the Left Guard Battalion and the Right Guard Battalion are infantry battalions, there is only one competition this time.

Foot Combat!

It doesn't matter if you're eighteen martial arts or seventy-two variations. You have only one mission, choose one of the weapons that you have prepared on both sides of the tournament table, and kill the other person who is also on the tournament table!

The twelve people on the field, after saluting their opponents, burst into cheers, and the battle officially began!

There are six competition platforms, and six pairs of warriors compete on the same stage, so in the whole arena, there are endless cheers and praises.

And Cao De also looked at this visual feast with a smile on his face.

In fact, the competition and competition between a group of soldiers really doesn't mean much. It is far less exciting than Zhang Fei and others dancing on stage. However, Cao De has been watching the process of the competition with great interest.

In less than a quarter of an hour, someone had already solved his opponent and entered the next round, and this person was naturally Cao De's personal guard.

Soon, another quarter of an hour later, all six sets of matches were completed. Among the remaining six people, three of them were Cao De's personal guards. As for those who are fortunate enough to compare with Cao De's personal guards, it is really chirping.

Next, Cao De changed the rules of the game.

Since three of the remaining six people are Cao De's personal guards, and they are just destined to be inseparable. So, Cao De intervened in it, come, let's have a ring match first!

The three personal guards are the champions, and those who think they are capable of Cao De's personal guards can give it a try.

Congratulations on winning; It's okay to lose.

Moreover, in order to take care of the three people who were eliminated by his own guards before, Cao De immediately issued an order, and everyone had the opportunity to challenge their own personal guards, but the three who won had the priority to challenge the choice.

Of course, if all the challengers fail or no one challenges at all, then the three guards can be killed. And the top three are the three who won before, as for who is the top one, let's compete again.

Soon, the three guards climbed up one by one.

However, just after Pei Yuanshao said the rules of this increased ring battle, the three warriors who had already won one game found their goals one after another and climbed onto the competition platform.

Since it's here, what's so scary, the big deal is to lose. Moreover, I can't ask for a game with the lord's personal guards!

After Pei Yuanshao gave an order, the six people on the stage turned around and drew their weapons.

The three guards drew their knives. Yes, it's all knives, three knives. The knife is not specially made, it is not a special style knife created with a special process, it is just an ordinary ring-headed knife! The other three have two spears and one is also a ring-headed broadsword.

Ring head big knife,Although there is a big one in the name,It's not like many games,The big、Wide、Thick big knife in TV,It's similar to the shape of the Tang knife。

The ring head knife is not wide, the wide one has four fingers, and the narrow one is only about three fingers. Unilateral cutting edge. At the top, some are slightly upturned tips; Some are cut horizontally, almost at an angle of 60 degrees.

In fact, the ring head knife is the prototype of the Tang knife, and the biggest difference between the ring head knife and the Tang knife is that the Tang knife is later than the ring head knife era, and the technology is more advanced.

However, what we call the Tang knife is actually the general name of the four knives during the Tang Dynasty. Instrument knife, obstacle knife, horizontal knife, strange knife! And the Tang knife we often talk about generally refers to the Tang horizontal knife!

Since the Han Dynasty, the ring-headed broadsword has basically been the main force of standard weapons in the army. Moreover, there are many Tang horizontal knives that still have rings at the back.

This ring can be used to tie the knife to the soldier's wrist with a strip of cloth. In this way, even in battle, after the knife in your hand is knocked away by the enemy, you don't have to bend down to pick it up, you only need to raise your wrist, and the knife can be pulled up naturally.

Knife! It needs to be opened and closed, and it needs to be indomitable and not retreating. And the gun! Focus on skills, use the advantages of the length of the gun, use the principle of leverage, and kill the enemy more easily and effortlessly.

Three soldiers, two with guns, not that their marksmanship is exquisite, but the reason why they were born as spearmen in the first place!

"Offended!" After choosing their weapons, the three of them once again confessed to their opponent's personal guards, carrying their weapons as if the other party was rushing away!
