Chapter 633: Learning Physical Arts
The first battle between the two sides may be just a temptation, as for the certainty, of course, after the arrival of the two coalition forces, the first thing the night army has to do is to block the first attack of the two coalition forces no matter what. Zhao Xu has a certain degree of self-confidence in this regard, because geographical advantages are one thing, and the army has experience in defending the city is the second aspect.
After instructing the generals again for today's exercise, Zhao Xu focused on explaining the matters related to the defense of the city to the generals below, mainly in terms of personnel arrangement. At the end of the discussion, Zhao Xu expressed the idea of taking the initiative to fight to the generals for the first time. Of course, this is only an assumption at present, and what will be done in the future depends on the situation.
After learning about the current military situation, not long after returning to his residence, Lin Xuanzhong, who was about to rest after a tired day, had just laid down when there was a sharp knock on the door.
"General, why are you resting?" Seeing that Lin Xuanzhong came out without a coat, Zhang Jiutian asked puzzled.
"What's the matter?" I don't know what else Zhang Jiutian had to do when he came to find him so late, Lin Xuanzhong was also very puzzled.
"It's not that I'm looking for you for something, it's General Yan who is looking for you for something, so let you go to him now. ”
"General Yan is looking for me," said softly, Lin Xuanzhong quickly thought of what he had said to Yan Nantian last night, obviously the matter was related to physical arts. Thinking of this, Lin Xuanzhong smiled and agreed, "I know!"
"Then let's go!"
"Why did General Yan let you go too?"
"Of course not, I'm going back by the way," Zhang Jiutian shook his head and couldn't help laughing, not understanding why Lin Xuanzhong would ask such a question.
"By the way, what is General Yan looking for you?" When Lin Xuanzhong was embarrassed that he had asked a question that he didn't need to ask, it was Zhang Jiutian who broke the calm first.
"Because of the recent grain requisition, I was rewarded last night and gave a lot of jade, but I didn't ask for it. So, General Yan asked me if I had any other needs, last night I mentioned that I wanted to learn physical arts, and General Yan suggested that I worship General Zhang as a teacher, and tonight General Yan should be looking for me for this matter, "For Zhang Jiutian, Lin Xuanzhong has nothing to hide."
"The general you said is the commander of the cavalry battalion?"
"How do you know?"
"General, I just envy your good luck, it seems that after I go back, I will practice martial arts hard, otherwise the distance between me and you will only get farther and farther," with a long sigh, thinking about the strength gap between himself and Lin Xuanzhong, Zhang Jiutian suddenly felt a lot.
"I see that your aura seems to have strengthened recently, is your realm about to break through?"
"En," in the face of Lin Xuanzhong's inquiry, Zhang Jiutian nodded undeniably, his face showed a little joy, the original inner feeling was fleeting, and he was very happy about the upcoming advancement. Because once he breaks through to the seventh order of the martial realm, it not only means that he has entered the ranks of high-level martial cultivators, but Zhang Jiutian's strength will also improve as a whole, and it is natural that he can narrow the gap in strength with Lin Xuanzhong, which is exactly what he wants.
"Congratulations," after Zhang Jiutian's affirmation, Lin Xuanzhong was also happy. Speaking of which, Zhang Jiutian might be Lin Xuanzhong's first high-level martial arts cultivation friend, and as for Fang Qing, it would take some time for them to break through to the seventh order of the martial realm.
Talking and talking, the two walked to a fork in the road, said a brief goodbye and left. Not long after, Lin Xuanzhong came to Yan Nantian's residence. The guard at the door saw that it was Lin Xuanzhong who directly took Lin Xuanzhong to the courtyard, and after a while, following the guard, Lin Xuanzhong could see Yan Nantian and Zhang Daring sitting in the pavilion from a distance.
"See the two generals," After getting closer, Lin Xuanzhong immediately gave a military salute to the two.
"General Lin, come here, it's not a formal occasion now, you don't have to be so formal," smiled and beckoned to Lin Xuanzhong, Yan Nantian's behavior at the moment was like an elder shouting at the junior, without the slightest pretension of a general.
"Yes," agreed, Lin Xuanzhong walked straight to the pavilion, and when he stood in front of the two, Lin Xuanzhong looked at Zhang Bold carefully, and suddenly felt a kind of respect in his heart.
As the first tiger general named by Zhao Xu, Zhang Daring not only looks very powerful, but the momentum of the whole person is extremely domineering, standing in front of Zhang Daring, Lin Xuanzhong is like an ordinary soldier standing in front of a general.
"General Lin, your name is Lin Xuanzhong?" Zhang Daring turned sideways slightly, and a pair of tiger eyes looked directly at Lin Xuanzhong, and his compelling eyes made it impossible to look directly.
"Exactly," in front of Zhang Daring, although Lin Xuanzhong wanted to behave more easily, he couldn't do it.
"General Yan told me before that you confiscated the jade reward given to you above, and now that the situation in the army is tense, you have done a good job. ”
To Lin Xuanzhong's great surprise, the second sentence Zhang Daring said turned out to be praising himself. Then, when Lin Xuanzhong was thinking about how to respond, Zhang Daring continued: "I heard General Yan say that you want to learn physical arts, I wonder if you have been exposed to physical arts before?"
"General Hui, the last general has only learned one set of basic boxing techniques before," to Lin Xuanzhong's surprise again, he didn't expect Zhang Daring to go straight to the point after praising himself, so that his original thoughts were interrupted again.
"Boxing is not a physical technique, and the real physical technique cannot be embodied in the form of martial arts," shaking his head at Lin Xuanzhong, Zhang Dadao said decisively: "I don't have much time to teach you, there are only three nights from tonight to the night after tomorrow, as for how much you can learn, it all depends on your qualifications." Zhang Daring spoke directly, and he didn't have anything to do with Lin Xuanzhong at all.
On the other hand, because Zhang Daring said extremely briefly, Lin Xuanzhong listened to it unclearly, and it was not easy to ask more.
"There are many affairs in the army, and General Zhang doesn't have much free time, so he has no intention of accepting you as an apprentice. But General Lin, don't worry, with General Zhang's strength to teach you for three days, it may be more useful than three years of self-study, you just need to study hard," when Lin Xuanzhong was thinking about how to answer Zhang Dadao's words, Yan Nantian kindly explained to Lin Xuanzhong.
Yan Nantian felt that it was a pity that Zhang Daring didn't want to accept Lin Xuanzhong as an apprentice, but one thing was certain, Zhang Daring would definitely do his best to teach Lin Xuanzhong physical arts, so three nights was not a long time, but as long as Lin Xuanzhong's comprehension ability was good enough, maybe the time was sufficient. Besides, Zhang Daring has always been in the army, and if he encounters problems in cultivating physical skills in the future, Lin Xuanzhong can also ask Zhang Daring for advice.
"The last general understands," agreed without humility or arrogance, and Lin Xuanzhong accepted many opinions without any opinion. Before he had time to think about it clearly, he was embarrassed that Zhang Daring was so eager to teach himself physical arts, not to mention that he was tired for a day at first, but now he was not confident that he could practice physical skills in a short time, and before he knew it, Lin Xuanzhong was already extremely nervous.
"General Zhang, I have full authority to teach General Lin about physical skills, Yan is feeling a little unwell today, so I will not accompany you!" Seeing that Lin Xuanzhong was there for a long time without speaking, Yan Nantian smiled and got up and left directly with the two, not planning to experience Lin Xuanzhong's feelings at this time.
In a blink of an eye, only Lin Xuanzhong and Zhang Daring were left in the pavilion. Zhang Daring doesn't smile on weekdays, and naturally he doesn't talk much, but Lin Xuanzhong has always liked to be silent, and besides, it is still Zhang Daring who is facing him, Lin Xuanzhong doesn't know what to say at all. So, as soon as Yan Nantian left, the atmosphere immediately became awkward.
"If it's nothing, let's start now," Fortunately, Zhang Daring was in a hurry, and after responding to Yan Nantian's voice, his attention returned to Lin Xuanzhong in a blink of an eye.
"Okay," after agreeing, Lin Xuanzhong followed Zhang Daring to a clearing.
"The physical technique I want to teach you is called archery, which is mainly based on practicing qi and strengthening the body......" Before formally teaching Lin Xuanzhong's physical technique, Zhang Daring first briefly stated the characteristics of archery, and then instructed Lin Xuanzhong step by step how to learn archery and what is the use of learning archery after surgery.
Just like when the head of the Ling family instructed Lin Xuanzhong, what Zhang Daring said was concise but profound, and almost every sentence reminded Lin Xuanzhong of what Zhang Daring said before, "How much you can learn depends on your personal qualifications." Obviously, I don't have a certain comprehension ability, and it's difficult to even learn how to learn physical arts.
After Zhang Daring gave a brief explanation, he immediately demonstrated it to Lin Xuanzhong in person, playing a set of movements similar to boxing but not boxing at all, and the whole process was constantly in the wind. Just listening to the sound makes people marvel at Zhang's bold strength.
Zhang's bold movements seem simple, but they actually contain true meaning, and it can be said that every action is full of profound meaning.
When the second drill was over, Zhang Daring directly asked Lin Xuanzhong to practice for him. Unable to refuse Zhang Daring's request, Lin Xuanzhong could only try his best to rehearse those movements in preparation.
Just now, he had been trying to memorize all of Zhang Daring's movements, and now when he was practicing by himself, Lin Xuanzhong was silently reciting the mantra while making corresponding movements in order, and he didn't even have time to be nervous. It's a pity that although his mind is focused on practicing the moves of physical arts, after practicing a set of physical techniques, Lin Xuanzhong did not practice a single action.
Lin Xuanzhong himself did not have the ability to memorize, even if he memorized a lot of bow practice formulas with a high degree of concentration, Lin Xuanzhong still couldn't learn those moves so quickly.
In Zhang Daring's opinion, the set of physical techniques that Lin Xuanzhong practiced just now was obviously another physical technique, and from beginning to end, Zhang Daring did not find anything desirable. Now it is not feasible to teach Lin Xuanzhong all the physical techniques at once, so after pointing out the many mistakes that Lin Xuanzhong made just now, Zhang Daring divided the physical techniques into several parts, from front to back, from simple to difficult, and guided Lin Xuanzhong's cultivation step by step.
Under Zhang Daring's dedicated guidance, when Lin Xuanzhong practiced physical arts alone again, the mistakes he made were greatly reduced. In addition, after practicing a complete set of physical techniques again, Lin Xuanzhong also really felt that he had learned something, instead of imitating Zhang Dada's movements completely by impression like the first time.
