Chapter 19: The Battle of the Commanders
The area around the school yard is more heavily guarded than usual! Not only did Lu Bu's personal soldiers all arrive, but also the Chen family, as the "landlord", also deployed a large number of family soldiers to guard the main roads. On either side of Lu Bu were two unfamiliar faces, and Feng Yao guessed that it must be Zhang Liao and Gao Shun. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I didn't expect that today, Lu Bu personally came to watch the selection of the captain!" Feng Yao said in his heart.
Every official soldier who has passed the second-level test must enter the school grounds, and once a captain is selected, his own personal soldier will be selected on the spot! If you want to run for the captain, you must sign up in advance and receive a number plate.
Feng Yao received a number plate, and when he looked at the number on it, it turned out to be one thousand eight hundred and ninety-two, Feng Yao took a breath of cold air, "I didn't expect a small captain to compete so fiercely, the announcement said that only three hundred captains are needed, and there are six people competing for this captain!" ”
At this time, someone behind him suddenly shouted rudely: "The kid in front of you get out of here!" Don't get in Grandpa's way! ”
Before Feng Yao could turn around, he felt a strong wind coming behind him, so he had to dodge to the side, dodging the attack, he couldn't help but be furious, and turned to see that a fat man was lifting another soldier who was blocking his way, and wanted to throw it aside.
"It's you again!!" Feng Yao said angrily.
This man is the fat man who clashed with him at the inn a few days ago!
"Is that you?" The fat man saw Feng Yao's face clearly, and was taken aback, Feng Yao was not easy to mess with, he had already understood it.
The fat man let go of the man in his hand, but he didn't want to show weakness just yet, so he said: "If you have the ability, let's see you on the school field!" "Turn and leave.
Feng Yao snorted lightly, disapproving, and went straight into the school field to line up in order, and the fat man was also in front of him not far from him.
The first test is still a comparison of strength, strength is the most important thing on the battlefield, if the strength is not enough, just put on a set of dozens of pounds of armor will be tired and can't walk, how to kill the enemy? Not to mention that once the army marches in a hurry, every soldier must wear armor, carry food and water on his back, and carry weapons, and hurry.
In the middle of the school field is a pair of iron locks, each weighing one and a half stones, two weighing a total of three stones, if you want to become a military commander, you must hold the iron lock in both hands, walk around, and then put the iron lock back in place, in order to obtain the qualification to enter the next round.
Not long after, all the newly recruited soldiers who should have arrived had basically arrived, and at this time the hour was about to pass, and a red sun rose, dragging the tall banners out of a long oblique shadow.
"Uhh
The invigilator will wave the command flag in his hand and announce the start of the first strength test, and the soldiers participating in the selection will be in a commotion, but immediately they will be quiet again, and everyone's hearts will be raised, and their faces will be nervous.
"Hey, hey! You know! I know the general of this proctoring! At this time, a soldier standing in front of Feng Yao turned his head and whispered to Feng Yao.
This soldier Feng Yao didn't know, and he never spoke, because he was relatively thin and small, nearly half a head shorter than Feng Yao, so Feng Yao didn't have much interest in him, but at this time he took the initiative to talk to Feng Yao, Feng Yao was not rude, so he said softly: "It's a competition, it will violate military discipline to speak, if the invigilator hears it, it won't be good!" ”
The soldier seemed to want to prove himself, and whispered: "It's okay, we are so far away, we can't hear it, this general's surname is Wei Mingxu!" is the wife and brother of the lord, and he is not strict in leading soldiers, and he is the happiest to be a soldier under him. ”
"Really?" Feng Yao didn't believe that the invigilator was Wei Xu, this invigilator was not outstanding except for being a little stout.
"How could I lie to you! If you don't believe me, you can inquire, my surname is Xu Mingxian, and I am a well-known bag in the local area, even if you don't know me, you should have heard of our Xu family's Yuedan review, right? ”
"You mean Xu Zijiang?" Feng Yaodeng was interested, and he had long heard that there was a famous man named Xu Zijiang in Pingyu, and he also commented to Cao Cao back then, "The capable minister who rules the world, and the traitor who is in troubled times!" It's a pity that due to the war, the Xu family has already moved away from Pingyu County, and the once influential Yuedan Review has long been suspended, but I didn't expect to meet Xu Zijiang's clansmen.
"Of course, brother, Xu Zi will be my uncle, this is not blowing, I used to ask for news everywhere and help collect information for the Yuedan review!" Xu Xian said a little proudly.
Feng Yao pondered for a long time, and at this time, there was a sudden burst of laughter from the school field, Feng Yao looked over, it turned out that a soldier who participated in the competition had exhausted his strength, and was smashed by an iron lock, and was sitting on the ground with his feet held and his teeth bared in pain.
The invigilator mercilessly announced: "Unqualified!" Come on, take away! The two soldiers took the man away.
"Next one continues!"
Feng Yao took a look, the competition was still going on very fast, and after a while, it had already been carried out to more than three hundred, and he ranked one thousand eight hundred and ninety-two, and it was not his turn for the time being, so he talked to Xu Xian in a low voice.
Xu Xiandao: "May I ask if Brother Tai can be called?" How much is Guigeng? ”
Feng Yao said: "My surname is Feng Mingyao, the word Zimou, you just call me Zimou, what about you?" ”
Xu Xiandao: "I am one year old, and I don't have a word. ”
“……”
As time slowly passed, it was already 1888 at this time, and the atmosphere gradually became more and more tense, and most of the soldiers who participated in the selection had been eliminated, and there were less than 600 people on the field at this time!
No. 1188 passed smoothly, and happily stood aside and waited for the next round of competition.
"One Thousand One Hundred and Eighty-Nine!"
At this time, the fat man who had been in front of Feng Yao walked out happily, handed the number plate to the invigilator, and was about to mention the pair of iron locks, when the invigilator suddenly shouted: "Slow! ”
"What's your name?" The invigilator's face was furious.
"Bear embroidery!" Fat big man road.
When Feng Yao heard this name, Xiong Xiu, and then looked at the figure of the fat man, he almost didn't laugh out loud, and said in his heart: "This name is really interesting, this bear character is also appropriate, but this embroidery character is a little too girly!" ”
The invigilator pointed to Xiong Xiu and said, "How many are you?" ”
"A thousand, a thousand, I can't read!" Xiong Xiu replied with some fear.
"If you don't read, you can't grab a position indiscriminately, you are one thousand eight hundred and ninety-three, read that you are a beginner, don't care about it for the time being, if there is another model, you will be dealt with by military law!" The invigilator said angrily.
"Yes, General!" Xiong Xiu said, after speaking, Xiong Xiu lifted the double iron lock and left.
"Stop!" The invigilator glared and shouted, "Why don't you go back and line up in order!" After speaking, he threw Xiong Xiu's number plate on Xiong Xiu's face.
Xiong Xiu was frightened, picked up the number plate and hurriedly retreated, Feng Yao saw that his number plate was just behind him, so he beckoned and let Xiong Xiu behind him.
Although Feng Yao didn't like Xiong Xiu at all, he thought that he would always have to kill the enemy on the same battlefield in the future, so Fan didn't care about anything with such a bad person.
After a while, it was Xu Xian's turn, Xu Xian tried the iron lock, hey, lifted it up, and began to walk in circles, but the steps were very heavy, his teeth were clenched, and after walking about half a circle, Xu Xian was already overwhelmed, and the iron lock began to sink slowly, and it fell down.
"Ahh Xu Xian roared hard, and struggled to lift the iron lock again, the green tendons on his face burst and turned red, and he took a few steps forward with difficulty, and the steps became smaller and smaller.
At this time, just passing by Feng Yao's side, Feng Yao carefully encouraged: "Hold on!" Xu Xian was refreshed when he heard this, walked forward quickly with the iron lock, and finally arrived at the place where he was pointed, sat on the ground with his butt, and gasped for breath.
The invigilator looked at it for a while, seemed unbearable, and finally said, "Pass!" ”
It was Feng Yao's turn to play, the iron lock of the three stones was too light for Feng Yao, Feng Yao lifted his hands lightly, and walked half a circle easily, he was bored, so he used his arms to lift the two iron locks high, and walked the second half of the circle, and then gently put the iron lock in the designated place, clapped his hands, his face was not red, and he was not panting.
"Good!" There was a burst of cheers at the scene, and the eyes that looked at Feng Yao became eager.
The invigilator looked happy and asked, "What's your last name?" ”
"Feng Yao!"
"Qualified!" The invigilator announced loudly and returned the license plate to Feng Yao.
Xiong Xiu, who was behind Feng Yao, seemed to be unconvinced by Feng Yao, and as soon as he went into battle, he raised the iron lock, followed Feng Yao's example, walked a whole circle, completed the task, and then stood proudly beside Feng Yao in a cheer.
The strength test was completed quickly, and a total of 680 people passed! This means that in the next two competitions, 380 students will have to be eliminated!
Came to the bow and arrow competition field, Feng Yao found that this time the bow was completely different from the previous two times, the first two bows were all short bows, only half a person high, this time as a competition is a one-person high long bow, this kind of bow not only requires great strength, but also requires the shooter to have enough height and arm span, many soldiers who easily passed the first level of the strength test, after picking up the longbow and trying it a few times, they all shook their heads and sighed and gave up automatically, Xu Xian was also not spared.
Feng Yao tried, this bow to be opened, in fact, as long as there is the strength of two stones, but if you want to pull it full, you must spread your arms more than seven feet, although Feng Yao's height is more than eight feet, but the arm span has reached a length of nearly nine feet, and with a slight pull, the bow will be full, causing a burst of applause again.
Towards noon, the bow and arrow competition was over, and there were only four hundred and thirty-three people still standing in the school yard at this time! After a brief rest and meal, the third equestrian competition was much easier than the first two races, but more than 100 people were still eliminated, and only 280 barely passed the equestrian test, and finally 20 more were selected from the eliminated soldiers to make up the number of 300.
