Chapter 252: The Arrow Is Not Missing
The group came to the camp where the archers were trained, and there were eighteen archers, divided into three rows of six. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoWhen Wang Yan saw eighteen people, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and a smile appeared in his eyes. These eighteen men were not really archers, but eighteen horsemen around him. In order to deter the officials of the counties, Huang Zhong transferred the eighteen horsemen.
Huang Zhong stood beside the archers with a solemn expression, and said loudly: "Everyone, these are eighteen archers, all of whom are selected elites. This drill is the drill of archers. ā
"How?"
The country's prime minister looked forward to it and hurriedly asked.
Huang Zhong smiled lightly and replied, "The drill of cavalry lies in slashing and killing horses, while archers are different. Archers are long-range attacks, but the average archer practice is to place targets a hundred paces away, and fix them for the archers to shoot. But the eighteen archers under the command of Ben did not shoot in such a way. ā
The county magistrate of Mu County asked, "In what way?" General Huang don't sell Guanzi, just say it. ā
Wang Yan smiled and ordered, "Huang Zhong, save the extra introduction." ā
"No"
When Huang Zhong received the order, he waved his hand and pointed a hundred steps away, and commanded: "Have you seen the wooden sign standing a hundred steps away?" The wooden plaque is square, four feet long and four feet wide
"In the center of the wooden plaque, a disc is nailed. The disc is sawn from a log held by one person, and the thickness of the disc is two inches. ā
"The wooden sign will be held by the soldier to the left and right, and the archer will aim for the disc."
"The closer the bow hits the disc to the center, the more accurate the proof is, and this is the only criterion for judging."
Huang Zhong's eyes were confident, and he smiled: "The rules of the archer drill are finished, do you still have any understanding?" ā
Sun Yi showed a trace of disbelief in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "It is already very difficult to penetrate Yang in a hundred steps, and now it is even more difficult to get soldiers to shoot at moving arrow targets." In particular, the log target in the center of this plank is made of trees, and it is tougher than that, and it is difficult for the bow and arrow to hit and nail to it. ā
The county magistrate of Dangli County nodded and said, "It's not easy to have one or two sharpshooters in the army. This group of eighteen archers, if the department misses, it is really terrifying, it is unbelievable. ā
One of the officials opened their mouths, and they all found it difficult to complete.
Huang Zhong had a strong smile on his face, he was confident and calm, and he said without humility or arrogance: "Everyone, it is a mule or a horse, and you will naturally know if you pull it out for a walk." ā
Wang Yan ordered: "Don't say much, let's start." ā
"Obedience"
Huang Zhong nodded and ordered: "Ready to start"
As soon as he gave the order, some soldiers who had been prepared waved the order flag. When the soldier a hundred paces away saw this, he began to lift the first plank and walk back and forth.
At the same time, six eighteen knights in the first row took out their bows and arrows to prepare.
The bow is an iron-tired bow and the arrows are individually custom-made bows and arrows.
"Medium"
An eighteen-knight snorted coldly, and in an instant, the bow and arrow came out of the string.
"Zhongzhong"
Immediately after, five consecutive low shouts, followed by five bows and arrows.
Six arrows pierced the air in an arc, and with a sharp whistling sound, they went straight to the plank.
"Aggressive"
Six consecutive sounds of bows and arrows hitting the disc sounded one after another.
Six bows and arrows, with a hit.
However, the distance was a hundred paces, and the officials of each county knew how accurate the hit was. Rao was like this, and the officials of the counties couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and their eyes looked at the six eighteenth knights who shot in the first row with horrified eyes. Regardless of the accuracy of the bow and arrow, being able to hit a wooden card moving a hundred paces away with one arrow is already quite powerful, and it can be called a marksman.
Wang Yan's eyes swept over all the officials, with a smile on his face, although this military parade had just begun, the officials of the counties were shocked, and his expected goal had been achieved.
Immediately after, the eighteen knights in the second row stepped forward.
A hundred paces away, the soldier holding the sign changed to a wooden card and moved left and right again.
"Woohoo"
Six bows and arrows came out of the string in an instant, heading straight for the wooden card.
In the blink of an eye, the bow and arrow were hit.
"Goo-dong"
When Sun Yi saw this scene, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his expression was horrified, and he was secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, Chang Xiong was killed by Dian Wei last night. If Chang Xiong returned to Changyang County to rebel, once he fought with the army under Wang Yan's command, it would definitely be self-defeating, and he would have to be buried with him.
The six eighteenth knights in the third row finished archery, and the soldiers from a hundred paces away walked with three wooden signs.
Very, three wooden plaques stood in front of the county officials. On each wooden plaque, the six bows and arrows were almost close to the center, and although none of the bows and arrows hit the center, it was quite remarkable and frightening.
"These three wooden cards, the arrows on each wooden card are completely submerged into the disc, and the power of archery is too strong."
The county magistrate of Changguang County tried to grab the shaft of the arrow and pull it out, but he couldn't take it out at once, and he was surprised in his heart.
Huang Zhong looked proud and explained, "The soldier uses an iron-tired bow, not an ordinary bow. Only the strength of the iron-tired bow can ensure that the bow and arrow carry enough firing power to allow the arrow to penetrate. ā
The county officials smashed their mouths and looked at the eyes of the eighteen horsemen, frightened and fiery at the same time.
It would be nice if they could have such archers under their command.
A hundred steps through the yang, the arrow is empty
Such an archer is simply a sharpshooter.
But on the contrary, eighteen people appeared under Wang Yan's command at once, and there may even be many archers under Wang Yan's command. For a while, the officials' hearts were cold, thinking that they had been too disrespectful to Wang Yan when they arrived in Huang County late. If it really angered Wang Yan, they could only suffer.
The county magistrate of Muping County watched the drill twice in a row, and suddenly didn't want to watch it anymore in his heart, and the more he watched, the more he was hit in his heart. After thinking about it, he spoke: "General Huang, apart from archers, do you have any other exercises?" ā
Huang Zhong replied: "Next, infantry, shield soldiers, etc., all the arms in the army must go through one by one. ā
Mu Ping County Ling looked at Wang Yan and said respectfully: "Lord Taishou, after watching the drills of cavalry and archers, Xiaguan has already opened his eyes and feels that it is enough, there is no need to look any further." The army under the command of Lord Taishou can be called the elite of the elite. With Lord Taishou in charge of Donglai County, he will definitely sweep away the bandits, and no bandits will dare to cause chaos again. ā
Sun Yi was also shocked, and he had no interest in watching it anymore, and said: "Lord Taishou, the lower officials also think that they don't need to watch it anymore, it's enough."
The officials of the rest of the counties have not yet recovered from the shock, and when they heard the words of Sun Yi and Mu Ping's county order, they also hurriedly echoed and unanimously asked not to read it again.
It's really shocking
The officials of the counties all thought that the troops under their command were very elite, but after seeing the soldiers under Wang Yan's command, they found that there were people outside the world and there were heavens outside the sky, and they were beaten to a mess, and they no longer dared to have the slightest idea of disrespecting Wang Yan.
Wang Yan chuckled twice and asked, "Zhugong, really don't look at it?" ā
"Don't look at it, that's enough"
"Lord Taishou's command is all elite, and it is enough to see the archers and cavalry."
One by one, the officials spoke, and they all agreed and did not look at it.
Wang Yan nodded, and did not persuade, and commanded: "In this case, it will end here." Huang Zhong, let the rest of the prepared soldiers train on their own, and you can go back to the city with me. ā
"No"
Huang Zhong received the order and immediately gave the order.
Wang Yan left with the officials of the counties and returned to the city in a mighty manner.
When he returned to the city this time, the mood of Wang Yan, Huang Zhong and the county officials changed. The difference is that Wang Yan, Huang Zhong, Hu Zhao, Jia Xu, and others are extremely happy in their hearts, while the officials in various counties are in a heavy mood.
