The Nameless of the Common Clans

"Why did General Gao leave?" Under the general stage, all the soldiers were a little confused when they saw Gao Shun leaving.

Although Gao Shun usually trains them like dogs, but for such a long time, everyone is quite convinced of this general. Today is the day to compete for generals. Gao Shun, the general of Xiyuan, is not here. For these people, I felt a little awkward and uncomfortable. I used to think that Gao Shun's voice was like a devil, but without his voice, even a simple rallying call made me feel uncomfortable.

"I heard that General Gao has always been against winning generals by force of arms, but Qian Shuo insists on it. Is it because of this?" Cui Geng bumped Chen Mo with his elbow and looked ahead expressionlessly. , his lips moved.

"It's stupid to compete with more handsome people. Anyone who has read some military books will not do this, or Qian Shuo did it on purpose." Chen Mo also looked ahead with an expressionless face.

"Don't say this nonsense in the future. Even people like Duke Yuan and the General have to stay away from eunuchs now. If we are like you and I, if we are really targeted by them, I'm afraid we will die badly!" Cui Geng's expression changed. Change, whispered.

"It's just that this new army is going to be destroyed!" Chen Mo was silent for a moment, feeling a little disappointed. He originally thought that the emperor would make great achievements by secretly selecting generals and planning the new army, but now it seems that the emperor's methods are indeed high. But using eunuchs to select generals is really ignorant of human ability. If this new Xiyuan army is handed over to Qian Shuo, I am afraid that it will not end well in the end.

"Hey, after saying all this, isn't it because you, a little kid like you, have no support in the martial arts competition?" The big man standing behind Chen Mo suddenly spoke up, similar to the two of them, but his voice was slightly louder.

"..." Chen Mo suddenly lost interest in talking. Xia Chong Bu Yu Bing, there is nothing to argue with this kind of person.

"Trash!" When the man saw that Chen Mo didn't answer, he just thought he had a guilty conscience and sneered. Normally, he felt that this kid liked to show off his abilities to others, which made him particularly unhappy. However, Chen Mo was very popular here, so it was not easy for him to have an attack. , this time, Qian Shuo used a military competition to select generals, which directly eliminated Chen Mo's possibility of winning generals. The man couldn't help but want to ridicule, but Chen Mo didn't even pay attention to his mood. Man He talked to himself for a long time, feeling a little bored and a little embarrassed, so he lowered his voice and said: "It's best not to meet me later, otherwise I will make you look good."

"The competition to win the generals has officially begun. Today's competition is the first one, archery. Each group of five people, each person has three targets, and those with eight arrows per target can pass." Wang Yue stood on the generals' stage and announced the rules of the competition loudly. , after the announcement, he turned to look at Qian Shuo.

Qian Shuo coughed lightly and said loudly: "This time, we are selecting generals for Your Majesty. I hope you will fight bravely to get started!"

The archery assessment is relatively simple, but in Chen Mo's opinion, it is not simple. A one-stone longbow needs to shoot thirty arrows. If every arrow is shot with all one's strength, it may be exhausted within ten arrows. However, the distances between the three targets are different. , the strength required is naturally different. As long as the strength can be distributed well, victory is possible.

The competition ahead also illustrates this point. Although they are not children of big families, they all have some backgrounds. Archery is one of the six arts. Even if they are not very proficient, they are not too bad. Twenty-step arrows Some people tried their best to reach the target, while others chose to use less effort.

At an archery target of almost twenty steps, few people miss it. Those with strong strength can even shoot directly through the target. But at an arrow target of fifty steps, some people have already begun to lose strength. They try hard to shoot. Although they can barely hit the target, Some people have begun to miss the target. As for the eighty-step target, it is not difficult for the new recruits in Xiyuan to hit the target on weekdays. After all, most of the people who dare to come here are somewhat brave. However, the previous twenty arrows almost exhausted all their strength. At the final archery target, only one of the five people saved their energy from the beginning, and all of them hit the target.

"Shuo Gong's move is quite clever in the art of war." Looking at this scene on the general stage, Wang Yue stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"???" Qian Shuo glanced blankly at Wang Yue, who was looking at him with admiration, coughed lightly and said, "Mr. Zi Rui, tell me what's so wonderful about it?"

Wang Yue said with a smile: "Although a stone bow is not a strong bow, an ordinary soldier who can fire five bows in a row is already a brave man in the army. Although the generals selected in Xiyuan this time all have general talents, if they fire thirty bows with all their strength, The bow is also quite difficult. Therefore, if you want to pass the level, it requires extremely high control of strength. Without a certain strategy, it may be difficult to win. "

I see.

Qian Shuo looked at Wang Yue with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, that's right. Mr. Zi Rui is worthy of being the best swordsman in the world."

This actually has nothing to do with being a swordsman, I just want to prove to you that I am more than just a swordsman.

Wang Yue saw that Qian Shuo was speechless after he finished speaking, and he sighed helplessly. He didn't know whether the other party didn't understand or pretended not to understand.

The five people in the first batch were almost wiped out, and the following people were much more restrained. They tried their best to control their strength and save their energy in the early stage, and only used their power when they reached eighty steps. Three people in the second batch passed the test.

Then the third batch, the fourth batch.

Chen Mo was in the 26th batch for the test. Compared with others, Chen Mo did not shoot ten arrows at the first target. He only shot eight arrows and then started shooting at the second target. However, his arrows were basically concentrated on Around the bullseye.

On the general stage, Qian Shuo was naturally impressed by Chen Mo. He was a little surprised when he saw that every arrow he shot was sure to hit: "Is this guy's archery so good? But I don't know why he only shot eight arrows?"

This time, Wang Yue did not answer. He could see that Qian Shuo knew nothing about this. A young man under fifteen years old, no matter how good his archery skills were, he could shoot twenty-four arrows in a row with a long bow. It’s not easy anymore. Do you still expect him to hit all thirty arrows?

But this young man is quite determined!

Wang Yue looked at Chen Mo with some surprise. He basically picked up the arrow and shot it without looking carefully at all. After shooting eight arrows, before the arrow hit the target, he started shooting at a farther target.

This shows that this man has extremely high confidence in his archery skills, and his control of force is also extremely precise. Almost every arrow hits the target just right without falling down.

This boy may be more suitable for learning swordsmanship!

Wang Yue's eyes fell on Chen Mo's hand involuntarily.

At this time, Chen Mo had already started shooting at the eighty-step archery target. Compared with twenty and fifty steps, the eighty-step archery target had to be shot with all his strength. Even though he had tried his best to control the consumption of strength before, shooting at this time The archery target was also a bit reluctant, and the eighth arrow was even a little weak. It took two attempts to hit the target, and it was not like the fifty-step and twenty-step archery targets. The arrows all landed near the bullseye and were scattered. He shot on the target, obviously he couldn't control the strength, and every arrow made him blush.

"Pass!" The last arrow landed on the target. Chen Mo was almost out of strength. Hearing the voice coming from his ears, he let out a deep breath, turned around and left with the long bow. He needed to rest now.
