Chapter 865: All or Nothing (2)
The Jishan camp on the outskirts of Beijing is conducting an unprecedented drill.
Since the defeat of the Tail Water, the regent has ordered the training of elite soldiers and strong soldiers, and the main force of the town guarding Gyeonggi is all here, and many of them will follow the regent on the expedition, and this drill is to test the results and select talents.
Yes, the regent has long issued an order, and the hero does not ask where he comes from, and those who can live in it. So everyone worked hard to show their most vigorous side and seize this opportunity.
The early autumn sun was still fierce, and many people were sweating profusely, sweat running down their cheeks and down to their eyes, and countless people had chapped lips, but they kept standing still, letting their clothes in their armor be wet with sweat.
Yu Wenchu is still relatively satisfied, there is no other reason, a powerful army is not only the strongest and best at equestrianism or killing, it should also obey the command of all actions, fearless, quiet and orderly.
Yu Wenxin was very happy, as one of the main persons in charge of the training, he felt that this orderly and confident army, full of hatred for foreign invaders and Zhongshan traitors who lured wolves into the house, would be his pride. He was going to introduce someone to Yu Wenchu, and this person, he had every reason to believe that he would shine in future battles and become one of the fierce generals in the world.
For this introduction, he ingeniously arranged an event - a riding and archery competition. In fact, this is not uncommon, because the most common killing activity in the army is to shoot arrows at enemy soldiers on horseback, and there are many sergeants who are good at this activity, but the one he wants to introduce today is definitely a leader.
In order to show that the regent is not only close to the people but also has absolute strength to dominate the army, the first arrow of the day was fired by Yu Wenchu, who galloped across the wide school field, leaving ten arrows that hit the bull's eye. Not a single arrow missed, not a single arrow missed, even a sharpshooter in the army did not dare to guarantee such a zero mistake. And before this, no one had ever heard of the Prince Regent having such a magical skill.
And so the cheers shook the sky. Yu Wenxin became nervous, his brother was too tough, and the appearance he had painstakingly arranged seemed to have no special effects. But at this point, we can only continue to go down. He changed the order of the marksman's appearance, originally wanting that person to appear last in the finale, but now it seems that only that person can appear first to grab a chance.
And this second old man, as soon as he came on the field, he unceremoniously shot in half the arrow that His Royal Highness the Lord Regent had hit the bull's-eye before, and none of the arrows missed, and none of the arrows missed.
Yu Wenxin held his forehead in pain, he knew that this would be the case, he must have let this person come out after a while, and the more arrows on the arrow target are not so obvious.
Yu Wenchu smiled: "This person is a little interesting, what is his name?" ”
None of the generals in the seat said anything, and all of them turned their eyes to Yu Wenxin. That means that His Royal Highness King Huayang, you can solve the good things you do by yourself, whether it is offending the regent, or harming this person who is not aware of the heavens and the earth, but is still a genius, you can watch it.
Yu Wenxin replied stubbornly: "Wang Zangfeng, his name is Wang Zangfeng." Then scolded with a straight face: "This bastard doesn't know how thick the sky is, he dares to be so arrogant and begging for a beating, pull down and beat him on the board!" ”
Yu Wenchu waved his hand: "It's this king who said that heroes don't ask where they come from, and those who can live in them." If he has this ability, he should show it. Hit his board, do others dare to do their best? He looked at Yu Wenxin with a smile and said: "It's not enough to be able to shoot arrows, you have to look at other performances." ”
Yu Wenxin knew that his plan was seen through by Yu Wenchu. He was a little embarrassed, but he was also very calm: "Before, he knocked down more than a dozen strong men by himself, and a spear is also excellent." If you are strategic, you will not necessarily lose to others. ”
Yu Wenchu still took good care of Yu Wenxin, and he agreed to Yu Wenxin's request: "You let him come over, and I will test him." ”
The cavalry and archery competition on the school field was still in full swing, not far away, another group of ordinary soldiers who caught and drilled shook the sky, the sun was still very strong, Yu Wenchu simply took the school after this young man named Wang Zangfeng, and he had a strong interest in him. Yu Wenxin is right, this young man is indeed a rare general, and he is about to start the Northern Expedition in need of such a person.
The mounted shooting below could no longer attract his attention, and the winner would be reported to the person in charge of the matter anyway. He focused on discussing some issues with Wang Zangfeng, and decided to summon Wang Zangfeng later, he was glad to have found such a brave and capable young man, completely unaware that the shadow of death was approaching him.
Next to the school grounds, in the direction of the point of the platform, there is an open space with a small bed crossbow. The bed crossbow has been here for a long time, and for a long time its role was limited to familiarizing soldiers with the operation and structure in order to play a greater role in future wars. It would occasionally shoot terrifying crossbow arrows, but it was when there was no one on the school grounds, and at times like today, it was idle, and it shouldn't and couldn't shoot crossbow arrows.
But there are exceptions to everything, and the bed crossbow with the bolts removed is just a useless machine, which stays quietly in the hot sun, and is used as a good place to watch the excitement by a few idle firemen.
Yu Wenchu was enthusiastically learning about Wang Zangfeng's daily deeds with Yu Wenxin beside him, Wang Zangfeng honestly stood a foot away from him, obediently waiting for him to ask again.
No one noticed that the heart shield behind Wang Zangfeng was shining with an unusual light, and this light penetrated the hustle and bustle of the school yard and was projected into the eyes of a certain firehead soldier named Lao Huang who was sitting on the bed crossbow watching the excitement.
He knew that it was the exact direction of the Regent's Throne, and that as long as the crossbow bolt was shot there, that person would never survive again. Because today's upcoming crossbow bolt is specially made, it will use those gunpowder that is said to be the latest type, gunpowder is not easy to come by, this operation is also a desperate bet, all these people involved, if they can't succeed, they can only leave their lives here.
And at this time, Ye Xiu, who came to report the news on Mingzhu's order, was stopped outside the barracks, and he could hear the shouts of killing inside, but he just couldn't get in. For no other reason, the regent was too strict with the army, and all people who did not have tokens were forbidden to haunt the army during training. Ye Xiu tried every means to intercede and pull the relationship, but no one paid attention to him, he was faced with a difficult choice.
