Chapter 195 Teenager Joy New Knowledge
Women are really sensual animals, impulsive and reckless than men, and after Liu Min left, Hua Hong sorted out the things that Liu Min brought, and found that there were still a few samurai uniforms.
These samurai uniforms are the same as those worn by Li Yuncong, but they have added a lot of gold and silver lace decoration to the neckline, sleeves, and lining, which looks much more gorgeous.
Gou Shen sighed in his heart, he even prepared clothes for himself to test his archery, and said that he would not let himself participate in the election......
Originally, Gou Shen also wanted to ask Liu Min Zhidao and didn't know what Liu Xun thought of his paper-making business, but after thinking about it, he still didn't ask, but just said: "Princess, don't be rash, our affairs have to be discussed in the long run." ”
……
Unlike last time, Princess Wusun competed in the competition to choose a husband in Dahan, and this time there were more than 600 people who signed up after being recommended.
For a while, the young talents of the Han Dynasty gathered in Chang'an, and everyone understood in their hearts that there were almost no people who came to marry Princess Wusun this time, and everyone actually still thought about the position of Captain Huqiang.
The worst thing is that the candidates also want to be able to get a Yu Lin Lang to do it, after all, Yu Lin Lang is also a rank of three hundred stones, as the Son of Heaven Guard, there is a great chance of promotion in the future.
There is no profit and no early, with interests in it, it mobilizes the enthusiasm of the big men, and no one will let go of the opportunity when it comes to a step to the sky, but the Son of Heaven is very strict this time, and it is clearly ordered that only men who have no marriage match from fifteen to twenty-five can sign up for the election by recommendation, so there is no way for someone to change the age of speculation.
The future matters. The head is more important. No one dares to deceive and test the majesty of the Son of Heaven.
Men with more than 600 years and weak crowns gathered in Chang'an. It can be said that it is not a grand event, in the past few days, Chang'an City has suddenly become a lot more lively, and there are some people who have turned their minds quickly, so they took the opportunity to find out the details of these campaign men as early as possible - there can only be one captain of Huqiang, but the group of people who can stand out among the six hundred people and go to the bottom of the line can be regarded as the handsome men of the Han Dynasty. It can be regarded as having a response.
It's an investment in advance.
Liu Xun, the Son of Heaven, paid great attention to this election, and put the process of the primary election outside the bus waiting for the edict office, which belonged to the periphery of the Weiyang Palace, and the inner court was far away, which made the participants have a sense of glory and oppression, and felt that their every move was under the gaze of the Son of Heaven.
And there is only one way to preliminarily campaign, and that is archery - arrows shoot targets, and the winner is respected.
It's just that there are victories and there are defeats. The ideal is very plump^ full, and the reality is very skinny. The Great Han Kingdom is mainly based on farming, that is, the children of wealthy families with conditions are not all hunting with bows and arrows every day, which is very different from those nomadic peoples in the Western Regions, so more than 400 people out of more than 600 people were eliminated in the primary election.
Originally, Princess Wusun asked for the ability to open the five-stone bow, a hundred steps away, and ten arrows could hit the target, but Liu Xun, the son of Khan, stipulated that the five-stone bow would be promoted to six stones, and asked for ten arrows and ten hits, and the difficulty coefficient was greatly increased.
Liu Xun is a very practical emperor, so according to Gou Shen's guess about Liu Xun's intentions, Liu Xun's purpose of selecting Yu Linlang through this competition is greater than the court strategists who play lipsticks.
After the primary election, for more than 100 re-examiners, there was a literary test alongside the martial arts test.
After the first test of more than 100 contestants, the identity is already the rank of 300 stone Yu Lin Lang, the same, into the re-examination of the Yu Lin Lang competition venue, the rising tide to the middle of the bus waiting for the edict and the Golden Horse Gate waiting for the edict, closer to the Weiyang Palace, close to the Son of Heaven, so, most of the more than 100 people look very excited.
Gou Shen, who also passed the preliminary examination, was very indifferent, he stood in the crowd and had a feeling of "revisiting the old place", as everyone stood in line, and then, Yang Tan and Zhu Bo, who were in charge of the selection, gave lectures respectively.
Yang Tan's words were very brief, nothing more than saying that everyone should do their best to serve the Son of Heaven, and then Zhu Bo, who was dressed in military uniform, said with a solemn face: "Certain, the guard ordered Zhu Bo, who was edicted by the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, to be the invigilator of this retest of archery." ”
Zhu Bo's words were like a bell, and the more than 100 people present could hear them clearly, but Zhu Bo's words felt a little nondescript, and he didn't know what kind of meaning Lu Dao wanted to express-
"A soldier is not a hundred years old, but he can't forget it for a day, and after the primary election, he has become a member of the Great Han Yu Lin Guard."
"Some people advance, there are people who stand still, soldiers never distinguish between high and low, only the division of labor is different, the advance is a blow, the place must be consolidated, never overcome the easy and defend the difficult victory, so, since they are all the people of the Han Dynasty, and now they are the guards of the Son of Heaven, I hope that you will make persistent efforts and achieve good results."
- What is a "Forwarder?" ”
- What is a "Placer"? ”
Gou Shen thought, perhaps, Zhu Bo is used to always showing a rude martial artist in front of people, which makes people feel that he has no ink in his chest, and he can't even speak clearly, right?
It seems that this Zhu Bo has always liked to pretend to be confused in front of people.
At this time, Gou Shen heard someone whispering softly: "This guard order is quite interesting to speak, and those who advance naturally want to be vigorous, but those who can't move forward, what else do they need to consolidate?" No matter how much you consolidate, isn't it Yu Linlang? ”
This voice was a little familiar, and Gou Shen glanced at it quietly, and sure enough, he saw a few familiar faces, and there was a person in the distance who kept staring at him, and Gou Shen pretended not to notice.
Zhu Bo's tower-like body stood in the open space, the burly man really had the momentum of being a man who could not open the door, he may not have heard anyone in the more than 100 people talking about himself, maybe he didn't care at all, and shouted loudly: "After the initial test, there are a total of one hundred and forty-one people, and the next competition, you have two choices." ”
"First, go straight forward, in front of which is the Golden Horse Gate Waiting for the Imperial Office, where it is responsible for the anthology interview, the interviewer is a doctor, and Kuang Heng is in the matter, but you have to pay attention, after you arrive at the Golden Horse Gate to wait for the Imperial Decree, if you get the selection promotion. It can become a golden horse gate to be edicted. And it ends there. Naturally, he lost the qualification to run for the captain of the Qiang Guard. ”
As soon as Zhu Bo said, there was a buzzing sound in the crowd at this time, Zhu Bo's eyes widened, and he shouted: "What is the noise!" Weiyang Palace is a place for chatting? ”
"Captain Huqiang is a military attache of the Han Dynasty, and he is talking about superior force, going into battle to kill the enemy, and fighting bloodily. Since you have participated in the anthology, there is naturally no possibility of martial arts? Is this hard to understand? ”
Zhu Bo stared, and the more than 100 people became quieter, and Zhu Bo snorted coldly and said: "The promotion of the literary selection is for the Golden Horse Gate, and those who are not promoted are still the guards of the Yulin Forest." ”
"Second, the one who continues to choose martial arts, the bow, is still six stones. There are also seven-stone and eight-stone bows for participants to choose from, and you can weigh them according to your own ability. ”
"But the target. As you can see, unlike the preliminary round, this time it is 200 steps away, which is more difficult than last time. ”
"But whoever misses an arrow is a loser, and he is still Yu Linlang."
At this time, Zhu Bo's voice suddenly became quieter, so that some people who were muttering in the crowd immediately stopped chattering, otherwise they wouldn't be able to hear what Zhu Bo said: "The content of your competition is too simple!" In the past, anyone who wanted to enter the Yulin Guard, throwing, running, jumping, immediately kung fu, hand-to-hand combat, and so on, all kinds of tests could be combined to show the quality of individual soldiers, and those who reached the standard could stay and advance. ”
"Your Majesty is so tolerant of you, and you are still not honestly afraid?"
"Do you understand?"
The candidates, who were still in a hurry, heard Zhu Bo's cynicism and fell silent.
At this time, the strength of one stone can lift about thirty-six catties of heavy objects, thinking that when he was in Yingshui County, Gou Shen wanted to give Zhu Bo the trapping bow, Zhu Bo said that the strength of his arms is about to be able to pull away the six-stone bow, that is, to lift about two hundred catties of weight.
At this time, these candidates not only have to pull away the six-stone bow, but also shoot the arrow at a target 200 steps away, requiring ten arrows and ten hits, and the arrow is not missing, how big is the difficulty factor?
Zhu Bo said that there are also seven or eight stone bows for everyone to choose from, and there may be people who can pull the seven or eight stone bows apart, but there are many who can shoot at the target.
Seeing that his words had a deterrent effect, Zhu Bo looked around and said, "Give you a moment to consider whether you want a military election or a literary selection, and then the literary selection will come out and follow the guards to Jinmamen to wait for the edict." ”
After Zhu Bo finished speaking, he and Yang Tan went aside, and then the person who was talking on the side of Gou Shen just now said: "Oh, my brother-in-law, this military attache is really like a dog butcher at the entrance of the vegetable market, it's a pity that he didn't change his career." ”
"Tsk, look at this figure, this-bear's waist, this tiger's back, hey-it's a pity."
This person teased Zhu Bo, and the people around him chuckled, and this person said: "Now everyone is already a member of Yulinwei, so continue to move forward, is to sprint to protect the Qiang captain, the key is that I know that I can't do it, but I don't want to go to Jinmamen to take the literary test, although Jinmamen is to be edicted to be awarded six hundred stones, but it is successful, what's the point of dropping a book bag with those people all day?" ”
Someone said: "Jinmamen is waiting for the edict, are you still not satisfied?" So what exactly do you want? ”
"Are you still your brother-in-law's wife? Isn't that your own sister? To say it is to say nothing. ”
"How do I think? I wonder if the competition here is over, if you can't succeed in the reselection, can you still go to Jinmamen? ”
As soon as this man said this, several people laughed again: "You think well, how can there be such a good thing in the world?" Now that you can be Yu Linlang, you are already winning glory for the Du family, and don't count on the rest, you old man. ”
Hearing the ridicule of others, the person who first started to speak distinguished: "Why don't I count on it?" Didn't that big black guy say that he couldn't succeed in the re-election here, and he couldn't go to Jinmamen? ”
"What he didn't say actually meant was that if you don't go now, you won't be able to go in the future, but you will quibble......"
Everyone in the congregation was thinking about whether they should give up the military election or insist, so more than a hundred people were in a mess, Gou Shen glanced at a person in the distance, and walked over to the few people who were talking beside him as if nothing happened. (To be continued......)
PS: [1: "Young people are happy to know new things, and they miss old friends in the twilight. "Don. Han Yu's "Removing the Official and Going to Jiangzhou to Send Eyue Li Dafu. The meaning of this sentence is: When people are young, they take pleasure in making new friends, and when they are old, they often miss old friends.
2: About the range of the bow and arrow: The divine arm bow (crossbow) of the Song Dynasty has a pulling force of up to nine stones, but the bowstring cannot afford it, and it is extremely difficult to operate, so the usual pulling force of the bow is two to four stones, and the average person in the Western Han Dynasty can pull a bow and arrow of five or six stones, which is a strong man.
As for 100 steps and 200 steps, the Zhou Dynasty took eight feet as a step, the Qin Dynasty took six feet as a step, and then also took five feet as a step.
Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, set his double steps, that is, one step each of the left and right feet, as the length unit "step"; It is also stipulated that one-fifth of a step is a foot, and three hundred steps are one mile. According to research, one step in the Tang Dynasty was 1.514 meters, and one Tang li was equivalent to 454.2 meters.
In the Ming Dynasty, one step was about 1.3 meters.
Due to space limitations, this issue will be covered in a future chapter, and we will continue to discuss it. 】
