Chapter 93: Drill Mounted Archery

Tuoba exited the imperial study, but waited in the imperial garden, and saw Taiyi Zhenren and the high priest leave the imperial study and leave the palace, updating the fastest

Later, when he saw that the high priest and Taiyi Zhenren had returned to the Quanzhen Taoist Temple together, the two of them did not come out again, so he returned unhappy.

It was already evening when I left the Quanzhen Sect and returned to the capital and returned to the Prince's Mansion.

Tuoba stood in the garden, looking at Yuxiu Palace, and was stunned for a while.

It wasn't until the crown princess came to him and talked to him that he came back to his senses.

"Son, seeing that you can't keep your soul, do you have a sweetheart?" The crown princess asked with a smile.

"......" Tuoba didn't answer, but smiled noncommittally.

"Don't hide it from your mother, you let the tailors in the house make so many beautiful dresses, can you still hide it from your mother?" The crown princess chuckled again.

"That damn tailor Zhou, his mouth is really not tight!" Tuoba snorted coldly.

"Don't blame Tailor Zhou, it was the concubine who forced him to ask." The crown princess said.

After a pause, he asked with a smile: "Tell my mother concubine, which daughter is it?" ”

"Mother, it's too early, people don't know if they will like your son." Tuoba said with a heavy heart.

"Hey!" The crown princess pouted and said, "There are still women in this world who don't like my son, unless she is blind and stupid!" ”

"Alright, alright. Mother, let's talk about this later. Tuoba sent his mother out.

"Hey...... You're still hiding things from your mother? The crown princess was helplessly pushed out by Tuoba.

Tuoba lay on the bed, thinking about what he heard in the imperial study, tossing and turning all night, unable to sleep.

The next day, Tuoba looked solemn, returned to the barracks, and first went to see the drills of the soldiers.

Other generals went with him to check the training.

He watched the siege training of the cloud ladder soldiers, as well as the training of formations, and the training of various swords, guns, swords, and halberds.

They arrived at the shooting range.

Feng Xi was leading his soldiers to practice archery.

And that Mulan is obviously more improved than before, and now every arrow can hit the heart.

Feng Xi took the bow and arrow, stood there, pointed to the arrow target a hundred steps away, and said:

"I have talked about it before, the basic essentials of archery, the body is correct, do not shrink your neck, do not show your arms, do not bend over, do not probe forward, do not lean back, this is the key!"

In Feng Xi's narration, more and more soldiers surrounded him, and everyone knew that the head of the sect Feng was going to practice archery in person.

Feng Xi put three arrows on the bowstring and continued:

"The body is straight, the force is peaceful, the bow is successful, the arrow is calmly, the forward push is backward, and the bow is full!"

The three arrows in his hand, with his last words, "whoosh", broke through the air and shot out, all hitting the bull's-eye.

Everyone couldn't help but blurt out praise.

"Good!" Tuoba behind him also applauded.

"General......" Feng Xi and the others saw Tuoba and bowed one by one.

"General Feng Zhonglang's archery skills are getting more and more powerful, and he is about to catch up with General Ben." Tuoba praised.

"The general praised it falsely, and his subordinates carved insects, how dare they talk about the same day as the general." Feng Xi bowed and said humbly.

"It seems that under the teaching of Chief Sect Feng, everyone is very fast. It's all good! Tuoba said loudly in approval.

Although he is arrogant, he has always been sympathetic to his subordinates, and he has never hesitated to praise the soldiers who deserve praise.

"General Xie! ......" Feng Xi and the others thanked Tuoba again.

"But the target is dead, the enemy is alive, and the enemy will not stand there waiting for you to shoot.

Therefore, learn to ride and shoot on horseback, so that you can give free hold to the enemy at any time. Tuoba said again.

"The general's golden and jade words, turning stones into gold, you all have to listen to them!" Hussar general Li Jun echoed.

Yihun turned his eyes back and didn't think so.

After a moment, his eyes were fixed on Feng Xi, and his eyes were clouded.

"No, general......" The generals said in unison, all listening carefully to Tuoba's words.

Tuoba admonished:

"On the battlefield, shooting arrows well is only one thing. The Great Wei Divine Soldiers, mainly cavalry, combined with infantry and cavalry.

Each battalion practices foot shooting, mounted archery, artillery shooting, foot encirclement, formation, sub-drills, joint exercises, ladder soldiers, rattan soldiers, swords, guns, swords, halberds, and all kinds of life-saving and killing skills to win the enemy, all of which are indispensable!

It is also necessary to adapt measures to local conditions and adapt to changes. But everything is not separated from its origin, and practicing your skills well is the real royal road! ”

"No! The general ......" responded.

"Zhan Ying, order someone to take some small drums and hang them on the horse's back." Tuoba Road.

"No! General! "Zhan Ying took the order, go down and arrange.

There were guards who hung small drums on the backs of several horses and beat them gently.

Tuoba said to the recruits:

"Recruits who are just learning to ride and shoot, beat the small drum on horseback to get your horse used to the sound.

Occasionally, the bow and arrow should be rubbed against the horse's nose, forehead, neck, etc.

From time to time, gently pluck the bowstring next to the horse and on the horse's back to let the horse get used to the sound of the bowstring.

In this way, in the riding shooting, the horses will not be frightened when you shoot arrows. ”

He ordered a few random people to come out, and among them was Mulan.

"You guys, let General Ben see how your cavalry is doing!" Tuoba said loudly.

"No! General! ……”

Everyone received the order, then turned over and got on their horses, and in the training ground, while riding their horses and whips, while bending their bows and arrows to shoot targets.

Some of the riders who came out could hit the target, and some of them dropped their arrows.

It is still Mulan's riding and shooting, and the Pegasus riding and shooting, although she failed to hit the heart with every arrow, she also hit the target and became the leader.

"Good ......," the soldiers and generals shouted and cheered.

"Yes, Mulan, General Ben watched you shoot arrows before, and it was unsatisfactory. Now not only has the infantry shooting improved, but the horse shooting is also considered to be at ease.

But we still need to continue to work hard and strive to become a general! Tuoba nodded in praise.

Hua Mulan turned over and dismounted, then bowed down and said:

"General Xie encourages!"

Tuoba said to Feng Xi again: "General Feng Zhonglang, in a short period of time, the teaching is well-organized, they are making rapid progress, continue to work hard!" ”

"General Xie cultivates!" Feng Xi also bowed and said.

“…… General, I heard that you have ridden and shot people. Can you show us that? Mulan said boldly.

"Bold Mulan, the daughter of the general of the King of Gaoyang, how can you see it if you want to see his cavalry?" Hussar general Li Jun angrily reprimanded Mulan.

Mulan was so frightened that she hurriedly bent over her shoulders and bowed her head, and stepped aside.

Tuoba kept thinking about the worries he had heard in the imperial study yesterday.

His mood is actually very heavy, and he has become deep and introverted.

It seems to be wrapped in a hurricane, and it is hidden and cannot be struck.

Mulan's proposal gave him a chance to relax the depression in his chest.

"Nope! Since General Ben is the commander of the three armed forces, he really wants to set a good example for you. Tuoba Lang said.

The corners of Mulan's mouth showed a slight smile.

The other generals are also looking forward to it.

"Tell all the generals who practice cavalry and archery to come over!" Tuoba shouted.

Within a moment, the training ground was full of soldiers.

Zhan Ying had already brought his snow horse over and hung a bag of feather arrows for him.

Tuoba told them to take the saddle off the snow pony.

Tuoba first explained aloud, his voice was full of internal force, and everyone seemed to be in their ears, hearing it clearly:

"Riding and shooting without a saddle is the most solid basic skill in riding and shooting!

If you can ride your horse well, and then put on the saddle, you will be able to ride and shoot more easily!

There are three basic stances in mounted archery, which are the counter-kick, the wipe, and the mane.

Kick is to shoot to the left, mane is to shoot the front and the right of a small area, and wipe is to shoot directly behind.

The difficulty of riding archery is that the rider not only shoots the arrow at high speed, but also moves forward with the ups and downs of the waves, and it is very difficult to shoot at the target at this time.

Usually when people and horses reach the highest point of the wave, there will be a moment of suspension in the air, and then it will fall down, remember! This moment is a good opportunity to spread!

Although it is now a riding and archery training ground, there is no Jin Ge Iron Horse, and there is no killing sound that shocks the sky.

But in front of our eyes, we still have to see the battlefield where we throw our heads and spill blood, coming and going like the wind, and arrows like lightning!

The real battlefield is different from the rigid training ground, which pays attention to tactics and strategies, and is complex and changeable.

In addition to frontal attacks, there will also be different situations such as roundabout, pursuit, harassment, or interception of the rear to pursue the enemy. ”

Tuoba paused for a moment, waited for the soldiers to digest his words, and continued:

"On the battlefield, every minute counts, and sometimes the chance to survive is fleeting.

The target at the training ground is dead, but the enemy on the battlefield is alive. Come on, live target waiting! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of guards, riding horses and holding targets, were preparing on the training ground.

Tuoba began to fly on his horse, and the guards with live targets galloped across the training grounds.

Tuoba holds the bow in his left hand and hooks the string with his right hand, either left or right, or turns upside down and shoots backwards on his horse.

After a round of cavalry shooting, the hundreds of arrows in the bag had been shot empty, and the cheers and applause and envy of the soldiers were endless.

Tuoba is indeed unruly and ruthless.

But he has a respected status, is brave and good at fighting, and can be called the god of war!

If he is a bad boy, he is the most noble and graceful Yanei in this Great Wei, the most amorous and unrestrained noble emperor!

People admired him and revered him.

Tuoba also motioned for Zhan Ying to return to the saddle, hook the stirrup with his feet in the riding shot, fly left and right, and lie on the side of the horse to shoot arrows.

Left or right, front or back, sometimes two in a row, sometimes three in a row.

Doing all kinds of difficult movements on horseback, it is wonderful.

Shoot live targets from different angles during the run, and each arrow hits the heart.

The soldiers were dumbfounded.

Mulan's eyes are even more colorful.

"The Great General ...... Mighty"

"The Great General ...... Bravely"

"The Great General is really the god of war of Great Wei......"

"God of War! Mars! ……”

The applause continued.

After the demonstration, Tuoba then instructed everyone: "Do you think it is easy to see General Ben riding and shooting?" ”

"The Great General is too powerful! ......" the generals applauded again.

"Great riding and archery doesn't happen overnight. Running at high speeds and shooting accurately at the same time will undoubtedly require a lot of practice. You know? Tuoba said solemnly.

"I know, as the eldest grandson of the emperor, the general can train hard, and we can also ......" The generals were so impressed that they threw themselves to the ground.

The eldest grandson of the dignified emperor, who can have such a good martial arts, is absolutely impossible without diligent practice.

The pampered emperors and grandsons can train hard, why can't they.

Tuoba really inspires everyone.

Mulan's heart is even more rippling.

Only Yi Hun, when he saw Tuoba and thought of the death of his younger brother Yi Ji, his heart was full of feelings.

And Yi Hun had already recognized that Feng Xi, he turned out to be a soldier, so he really pretended to be the Imperial Forest Army at the beginning!

He secretly gritted his teeth, thinking about how to punish Feng Xi for pretending to be the Imperial Forest Army.

"General Feng Zhonglang, let's learn again!" Tuoba and said.

Tuoba can't wait to find someone to fight, so that he can get rid of the sulk in his heart.

"Yes." Feng Xi arched his hand.

Tuoba looked at Feng Xi's Qingfeng Sword and shook his head.

He glanced at all the generals, but said to Yi Hun: "General Light Cavalry, can you borrow your seven-star sword?" ”

“…… Borrow a sword, of course! After being stunned for a moment, Yi Hun smiled dryly.

"But the general," Yi Hun glanced at Tuoba, and then turned to look at Feng Xi, but he didn't smile and said: "This so-called General Feng Zhonglang, who was with Li Yi at the beginning, actually pretended to be the Imperial Forest Army to prevent General Ben from taking slaves to the West Mine!" ”

Feng Xi is an honest man, and when he saw Yihun say this, his face couldn't help but become a little nervous.

"General, how should we punish those who pretend to be the Royal Guards?" Yi Hun looked at Tuoba aggressively.

Tuoba smiled slightly, looked at Yi Hun, and then at Feng Xi, and said:

"I know about this, in fact, General Feng Zhonglang is not pretending to be the Imperial Forest Army, but in fact, General Ben ordered him and Li Yi to carry out a secret mission."

“…… Is there a reality? Yi Hun said suspiciously.

"Could it be that General Ben still needs to explain to General Light Cavalry, what did General Ben send General Feng Zhonglang to do?" Tuoba put his hands on his back again, squinted at Yihun, and said coldly.

"The last general will not dare." Yihun bowed in a low voice.

"The sword of the light cavalry general, do you borrow it or not?" Tuoba asked coldly.

"Of course." Yi Hun snorted haha.

hurriedly untied the seven-star sword, but unexpectedly threw the sword and shot towards Feng Xi.

Fortunately, Feng Xi reacted quickly, and with a follow-up fight, he dodged the seven-star sword shot by Yi Hun, and easily copied the sword back in mid-air.

"Good ......" the soldiers cheered again.

Only the second is so angry that it smokes.

Tuoba waited for him to take the sword, and also pulled out the Chixiao Sword, and then fought with Feng Xi.

In this fight, Tuoba was depressed in his chest, knowing that Feng Xi was not on par with him, so he really fought with him.

Seeing the soldiers, they cheered again.

This fierce fight made Tuoba's mood a little more comfortable.

After the discussion, Tuoba asked Feng Xi: "General Feng Zhonglang, this seven-star sword makes it easy?" ”

Feng Xi held the seven-star sword in his hand, and couldn't put it down: "Such a rare sword, being able to use it once is already a blessing for those who practice martial arts." ”

"Okay." Tuoba smiled meaningfully.

Feng Xi returned the sword to Yi Hun again.

Of course, he was angry about Yi Hun's abuse of slaves at the beginning, and he didn't have any respect for him, so he just returned the sword to Yi Hun as usual.

And Yi Hun took back his seven-star sword fiercely, and he couldn't wait to stab Feng Xi to death with a sword, and he couldn't wait to eat Feng Xi with that look.

"Alright, everybody keep training!" Tuoba Road.

patted the stunned Mulan on the side again:

"Mulan, you also have to ask General Feng Zhonglang for advice, so that he can give you good guidance on your martial arts!"

"No, General!" Mulan bowed.

Since then, Mulan has been training harder to ride and shoot swords every day, and even put in more effort than others.

Sometimes Feng Xi saw that he had practiced too much, so he persuaded him to stop.

Feng Xi also jokingly asked him if he really wanted to be a general.

But Mulan blushed and shook her head, saying that she just wanted to protect her family and defend the country, and then go home to serve her old father.

Tuoba was sweating all over, and his mood was finally relaxed.

Leaving the training ground, he returned to the big tent, washed his face and changed into clean clothes, and handled military affairs with a dignified face.

Zhan Ying walked in, walked to his desk, and stood silently for a while.

“…… Go ahead. Tuoba knew that Zhan Ying had something to say like this.

"General, there's something new in Pingcheng again." Zhan Yingyu reports.

If the capital is a big deal, or if there is any change, they will report it.

Tuoba glanced up at him, and then looked at the official document in his hand heavily.

But waiting for Zhan Ying's report......
