Pingyang Fu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 201 Archery is number one in the world
"Woooo."

The horn sounded,
The first project of the martial arts performance is the display of the military array, and each department walks in order from the high platform in order.

First of all, there are 1 horses of the imperial army, lined up in a square formation, neat and uniform, with clear movements. The leader of the army, Kang Mengyu, is also high-spirited, riding a horse and wearing a white cloak, quite like a Confucian general.

Then came the Beijing camp. Wang Ren and Jia Lian each led a battalion through. Not to mention anything else, their momentum and armor were as good as those of the Imperial Army. Moreover, Wang Ren and Jia Lian were handsome young men, wearing armor and a cloak. Naturally, Pina looks good.

Immediately afterwards, the Nine Provinces Frontier Army walked through the phalanx. The pace and momentum of the Shuoyang Frontier Army were really eye-catching. They were obviously elites who had been famous for a long time. faithful and reliable.

Behind is the frontier army in the cloud led by Chen Ruiwen. All members of this unit are dressed in white armor. Chen Ruiwen is also dressed in a white robe, with outstanding demeanor, and the whole team walks rigorously.

The fifth phalanx is Liu Fang's North River Army, the cold aura is particularly terrifying, they must be elite and courageous soldiers who have gone through bloody battles.

The sixth is Ma Shang's Beiyuan frontier army. The armor on the left arm of the sergeants under this department is uniform dark green, and I don't know what it is suitable for.

The seventh is Shi Guangzhu's Bingbei Army. The military uniform of this army is brown, and of course Shi Guangzhu is the most beautiful man in the Duke's mansion, with a red cloak flying against the wind, and a sledgehammer in both hands It is also very eye-catching.

After that, the last three frontier troops, Shanyang, Yunyang, and Beiyun counties, passed by one by one. Although the momentum was like a rainbow, the a little crooked team was clearly visible from the high place above the tower. .

It can only be said that the superior and inferior judge.

The entire array walked from east to west, and then returned to the school field to stand in line.

The young generals passing by one after another naturally aroused the interest of some housewives in their families as matchmakers, and they were all secretly asking who were the leaders who had just led the past, and whether they were married or not.

Jia's mother watched all this silently, and she also looked relieved. It was the right way to let Jia Lian go to the Beijing camp.

On the contrary, Jia Baoyu was troubled, seeing all the sisters excitedly talking about the generals on the trip, but ignoring him, he felt very uncomfortable.

And Mrs. Wang, Wang Shihan, who was sitting in the back, also watched everything silently, with flashes of light in her eyes from time to time, and the three daughters of the Yang family sitting around were also very curious.

Emperor Wu also stared down intently. Although he knew that marching in formation was not a manifestation of combat power, the overall situation could also tell whether the various ministries were working hard. After all, the frontier troops behind were a little slack.

The second king was in the attic above the city gate, and he could see clearly from the window on the first floor, and he shook his head. In contrast, the subordinates of the former palace also fell.

And in the end,
It is the [-] elite led by Luo Yunhou himself, lined up in the distance,

Zhang Jinyu shouted;
"Listen to the order and walk in unison."

I saw the sergeants outside the pass wearing the new Chinese armor, walking in a uniform pace, lined up in a straight line, densely formed, and the vague momentum of waving waves shocked everyone.

"This"

Emperor Wu was also surprised, the frontier army outside the pass was so elite, and the disparity was so great, he glanced at Dai Quan, Dai Quan was stunned as well, he didn't even know about coming to the Imperial City Division, so Emperor Wu had to turn his gaze back again.

Not far from the high platform, Zhang Jinyu shouted;
"Long live Your Majesty."

All the sergeants shouted "Long live."

Immediately kicking forward, the sound of dull footsteps and the sound of armor colliding were heard in an orderly manner. The sergeants walked in unison, and the queue formed a line like a single person.

Looking at everything on the city wall like this, the commander of the forbidden army was also deeply shocked. Such a powerful army in the world, Luo Yunhou really deserved his reputation.

When the frontier army outside the pass was far away, everyone in the city was completely silent, and the judges and princes also silently gave the frontier army outside the pass full marks.

The envoys of the Fan Kingdom and the special envoys of Hu Shang all stared wide-eyed, watching the frontier army that appeared at the end in disbelief. Such a god-like army could indeed defeat the existence of the Jurchens, so it was the right time to come to Dawu.

Martial Emperor Zhou Shihong was also greatly shocked in his heart. Although he didn't know soldiers, he could still tell the difference between good and bad. Such a strict formation was simply unheard of.

And the Supreme Emperor Zhou Shengzhuo on the second floor of the attic also squinted his eyes and said nothing, not knowing what he was thinking.The empress dowager and the old concubine beside him are also full of thoughts. This Luo Yunhou is indeed a martial arts star. I have no impression of how to defeat the Jurchen before. I never thought that such a situation would happen. Fortunately, I have hidden hands .

Suddenly, the two of them looked at each other as if they had a tacit understanding, and then parted ways with questioning eyes in their eyes.

On the high platform outside the attic, Dai Quan asked the eunuch's servant to move a chair covered with a blanket and put it down.

Emperor Wu came back to his senses, walked over and sat down, and said to Kang Guichen,
"continue."

"It's Your Majesty."

When the ministries arrived at the designated positions, Baoning Hou continued to shout;
"The next exercise is an army formation, with two thousand people."

It is nothing more than familiarity with the instructions. Each department sent 2000 people to the center of the school field.

The armies entered the stage one by one according to the existing sequence, and then the drums were beating to advance, the gold to retreat, and the command flags to be unfurled.

Almost all of the soldiers finished well enough to count as a draw.

Immediately afterwards, there was a thousand-person swordsmanship drill, and each department also replaced people on the stage.

Emperor Wu watched each army practice formation and saber techniques one by one, nodding from time to time, obviously very satisfied, the basic skills are in place.

After the army drill was completed, the judges gave similar scores. After all, the overall score of the frontier army was still at the bottom.

The next step is the evaluation of thousands of people riding and shooting. The points are heavier and divided into riding and foot shooting.

Rank directly according to the number of target arrows as one, two, three,

The first is to send one person to compete in archery to determine the bonus points in the early stage. It is divided into three points for riding and shooting No. 1, two points for No. 2, one point for No. 3, and no points for the rest.The same goes for shooting.

The generals of all the ministries consciously went up first, but Zhang Jinyu sent Dong Zhongyuan, and the others didn't know why they saw it, but Kang Mengyu also looked gloomy when he saw this, secretly thinking, how could it be him.

Come down the stage,

Marquis Bao Ning reintroduced the rules of archery. In general, more than seven or eight bows are enough for the assessment.

But this time the archery assessment was directly on the three-stone bow, and the distance was also a hundred steps away.

Pull up the three stone bows, and those who hit six out of ten will get three points for the upper class;

Pull up two crossbows, six out of ten, plus two points for medium;

Pull up a stone bow, and those who hit six out of ten will get one point for the inferior;
If the number of hits is not enough, it will be eliminated directly, and it will be the last, and the one with the most target arrows will be the winner.

As soon as these words came out, dissatisfaction was immediately caused. Is this completely embarrassing? There was a lot of noise at the scene, and the more than a thousand archers who participated in the performance were also shocked.

"quiet!"

Seeing this, the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army directly yelled loudly with a serious expression.

"If you don't want to participate, you can just say so. The score for this item is the last."

The people below stopped talking, but their faces were a bit ugly, especially the faces of the generals turned pale. Kang Mengyu didn't expect such an assessment standard, and the frontier general Niu Jizong and others even looked at each other in blank dismay.

It's really that this assessment standard is too fucked up, only Dong Zhongyuan looked erratic, silently chose a three-stone bow and waited in his hand, so outstanding and eye-catching.

Zhang Jinyu was also lucky below, and heaved a long sigh of relief. It's okay to cut people, but the archery competition of too high a technical nature is about to catch him blind.

The actions of the people below were clearly seen by Emperor Wu,
just asked;
"Dai Quan, come over and see who is that. Why is this person playing when Luo Yunhou is not here?"

Hearing this, Dai Quan naturally came over to examine it carefully. He looked familiar but couldn't remember it for a while, so he had to reply;

"Returning to Your Majesty, it may be a general under Luo Yunhou. It should have some skills, otherwise he wouldn't be able to play."

"It is."

Emperor Wu nodded in agreement.

The commander-in-chief of the forbidden army announced directly with a blank face;
"The ministries are free to choose, who will come first?"

Dong Zhongyuan first came to the bow and arrow place, took the three-stone bow, turned it upside down, and then pulled the bow into a full moon state with his arms.

"Good bow!"

Dong Zhongyuan said with satisfaction.

Such arrogant words also made the rest of the generals look uneasy.

The three-stone bow is really hard for ordinary people to pull, the strength is too heavy, even if you pull it, you can't shoot accurately, this person is so arrogant, how can the rest be angry.

Really more popular than dead people!

"Commander, the last general comes first, shoot on foot."

"Okay, start."

Marquis Bao Ning naturally agreed, Dong Zhongyuan bent his bow and set his arrow, aimed at the target a hundred paces away, and shot it casually, the arrow was like a shooting star, straight into the red heart of the target, the tail and wings of the arrow were still trembling.

"it is good."

"it is good!"

The surrounding sergeants all shouted "Hello", and Marquis Baoning also praised him.

It's just that Kang Mengyu's face became more gloomy, how could it be so.

There were nine arrows left, Dong Zhongyuan picked up three arrows and put them on the longbow at the same time, pulled the bowstring vigorously, opened the full moon, aimed at the target, and calmed down.

With a few "swish", three arrows were shot at the same time, and there were four arrows at the same time on the target a hundred steps away, and there was another burst of cheers.

Marquis Bao Ning was also surprised, this person was familiar, strange.

In the end, Dong Zhongyuan actually picked up six arrows, drew the bow and stringed it, took aim with the arrow, and then shot blindly with his eyes closed. The six black shadows shot directly at the target, and the guards announced and shouted;
"All ten arrows hit."

Everyone cheered, and even the common people looked up and admired.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Wu stood up and applauded loudly, and asked again;
"Who is this?"

Dai Quan asked the little eunuch to inquire about it a long time ago, and this time he came back quietly to inform Dai Quan, and then Dai Quan smiled and said, dearly;
"Returning to Your Majesty, it is Dong Zhongyuan, the sharpshooter under Luo Yunhou's command, who is comparable to the eagle shooter of the grassland people."

"Okay, this archery is really the best in the world, and the marksman is worthy of the name."

Emperor Wu praised it greatly.
