Chapter Ninety-Nine: Hunting in the East Mountain

"What? Are you sure it's by weight, not by quantity? ”

Xiao Zhengtai was taken aback.

That's not how they were played in those TV series in later generations, they were all compared to the number!

For example, whoever hits the most hares, pheasants, and geese will win, and the accuracy of the archery is compared!

And this old thing says that it is more than weight?

So if he encounters a big bison, won't he directly rank first?

"That's right! It's ...... weight! ”

However, Ying Zheng nodded very firmly and continued: "There is a royal hunting ground in Dongshan, and when the time comes, I will send people to put two big insects, eight wolves, and a number of hares and pheasants in it, and all the soldiers and princes of Great Qin can participate if they want!" ”

"Anyone who wins the hunt can participate in the dinner, and I will give you a corresponding reward!"

This is a good opportunity for the Great Qin soldiers to rise to the top.

As long as you shoot the prey, you can get a lot of reward money at the very least, and if you perform well, it is possible to be directly promoted to a general!

This is like the ice frolic of the Qing Dynasty in the TV series, as long as you skate well, you will be on the rise, just around the corner!

"What? And the big bugs? ”

This really made Xiao Zhengtai's jaw drop in shock.

This reward is not easy to take, and if it is not good, it will be gone.

If he's not mistaken, the big worm of this era is talking about tigers, right?

In this era when wild animals can be seen everywhere, tigers are not short of food at all, and they are not fat and strong, six or seven hundred catties each?

If you run into this, you will even tear up the people and horses.

No wonder this old man said that he wanted to test the weight, which was a test of the courage of the soldiers.

Who would dare to challenge a tiger if they are timid?

I'm scared to death just by hearing a call!

"That's right, but don't worry, the big worm and the wolf have already removed their claws and fangs, and even if they are defeated, they will not be eaten!"

Ying Zheng took a sip of wine and said.

"Hoo ......"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhengtai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought that this old man was idle, so that the soldiers of Daqin would send people to the head every year!

"You kid has a lot of strength, I don't know if you're interested in archery?"

"Yes! General Wang just taught his sons how to shoot arrows yesterday, and he will try it tomorrow, if he is not as good as a few royal brothers, his father will not laugh at me! ”

Xiao Zhengtai smiled milkily.

"Okay, then tomorrow, let's go together, haha!"

Ying Zheng laughed heartily.

……

On the second day, all the soldiers who were going to participate in the hunt had already gathered at the gate of the palace, waiting for the arrival of Yingzheng.

This is a good opportunity for them to rise to prominence, and all the better archery skills in the army are here, and there are crowds, almost two or three hundred people!

If you don't go to the morning court today, unless you have important official business to stay in the palace, everyone else will have to go with you!

This is undoubtedly an important day for Daqin!

Half an hour later, Ying Zheng came with a group of princes.

Xiao Zheng is too small, so he is at the bottom.

Li Si and the others frowned when they saw it, "What? This kid is going to participate too? ”

"Since you're here, it should be!"

Feng Zai nodded.

"Humph! This kid wants to shoot arrows with a lot of strength? The sword has no eyes, the horses have no sex, and if you don't keep it, you will be hurt! ”

Zhao Cheng squinted his eyes, revealing a hint of ruthlessness.

Shooting in the forest, everyone is scattered, there are trees to cover it, no one can notice anyone, even if it is injured, it can only be regarded as a mistake!

"Lang Zhongling, what do you mean ......?"

Li Xin's eyes widened, thinking that he would be mistaken.

"This kid killed my eldest brother and injured my nephew, and he has been impeached repeatedly, so take advantage of today to get rid of him and avoid future troubles!"

Zhao Cheng gritted his teeth, revealing a sideways face.

"...... this?"

"Lord Zhao, let's be cautious, in previous years, there would be people from the Black Ice Platform in the forest to secretly protect it!"

Lees' brows furrowed, not optimistic about his plan.

However, Zhao Cheng didn't pay attention to it, and secretly made up his mind in his heart!

"See Your Majesty!"

Ying Zheng approached, and everyone bowed their hands one after another.

"Well, let's go!"

Yingzheng nodded and led the ministers into the carriage.

As for the hundred or so soldiers, they are not treated so well, so they can only advance on foot!

Fortunately, Dongshan is not far from Xianyang City, and it will take more than half an hour to walk after leaving the city!

It's autumn, the leaves are starting to turn yellow, and there are still some daisies blooming in the meadow!

"Fifty arrow feathers per person, whoever shoots the heaviest prey wins, and those who run out of arrow feathers can return immediately!"

"The Black Ice Platform guards will follow near the big worm, and if there is danger, you can call the Black Ice Platform for help, and at the same time lose the qualification for the competition!"

After arriving in Dongshan, Meng Yi, who was in charge of the game, took a megaphone and began to announce the rules of the game.

This was used by Xiao Zhengtai when he was selecting government soldiers that day, and he was found by Yingzheng and asked for it, and it just came in handy today!

"Are you all ready?"

Meng Yi held a small flag in his hand and asked loudly.

"Ready!"

The crowd shouted in unison.

"Let's go!"

Meng Yi waved the flag and the game began.

The people clamped their legs around the belly of the horse, and the horse was in pain and immediately ran.

Now the war horses in the court are all equipped with horseshoes and saddles, and they have a firm grip on the ground, and people are very stable when they sit on them.

One by one, like arrows off the string, they rushed out, looking for prey!

Only Xiao Zhengtai is still in place, and he didn't even get on the horse!

"Feathers? What's the matter with you? Didn't you say you were going to participate in a hunting competition yesterday, why didn't you move again? ”

Ying Zheng sat on a folding chair and asked in a deep voice.

Xiao Zhengtai rode on the horse, did not say a word, pricked up his ears, and listened attentively to the movements around him!

"The little boy can't ride a horse, right?"

After a while, Li Si stood behind Yingzheng and said jokingly.

"That's right, Ben Gongzi really can't ride a horse, and Ben Gongzi will ride back with a big worm later!"

After speaking, Xiao Zhengtai flicked the reins and rode away.

His physique has been systematically strengthened, and his hearing is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and he has just pricked up his ears to listen to the movements around him!

When so many people rush into the woods at once, it is bound to cause animals to chirp, and those large animals are no exception.

Wolves, in particular, are social animals, and even if their fangs and claws are removed, their habits are still there.

When you feel threatened, you will surely let out a wolf howl and summon your companions!

He was just listening to the cries of these big animals!

There are a lot of pheasants and hares in the forest, but that thing weighs one or two catties, and the fat hare is about five catties, not too big.

Even if he hits ten, it's only thirty or fifty pounds!

But it's different to fight a wolf, a male wolf weighs about 70 catties, and even if it touches a female wolf, it will be about 50 catties.

That's the equivalent of ten hares and pheasants!

If you're lucky enough to hear the tiger and tell where you are, you can win the game almost immediately!
