I’m The King Chapter 40: :Archer

Gao Yuan found a new point of excitement for the soldiers. Everyone has a natural curiosity about something new, especially when this thing is extremely competitive. Stay in the team for a longer time, compare others, so as to gain the capital to brag and fart in front of everyone. Among them, the most energetic are Sun Xiao and Yan Haibo. Sun Xiao has a solid foundation, and Yan Haibo is young and energetic.

The ultimate goal of fighting is to best protect yourself and knock down others. Without actual combat practice, it is just some beautiful fancy moves, and this sandbag formation imitates actual combat to the greatest extent, while avoiding unnecessary damage. Of course, since the sandbag formation was set up in the barracks, almost everyone in the team had bruises and swollen faces. Cao Tiancheng had to run to the city every day to invite a doctor to treat everyone's injuries, but the doctor in the city who specializes in bruises made a lot of money. pen.

Cao Tiancheng himself tried once, but after all, he was a man in his forties. After entering, he was laid down in an instant. He crawled out on the ground and let Sun Xiaohao sneered, since then, Cao Tiancheng has been hesitant to these sandbags, and has never tried it again. He is afraid of being young and strong, and he must be old. His strength and reaction are not comparable to young people. Cao Tiancheng is still a high-level soldier. , Let yourself be responsible for the team's eating, drinking, and messing around. Let the young people do this kind of hard work.

Gao Yuan didn't bother to care about where the sandbags were set up, and he didn't instruct his soldiers to practice. This thing still depends on one's understanding and continuous practice. If you are beaten a lot, your reaction ability will naturally improve. Improvement. At the same time, if you get hit more, you can also improve your ability to resist blows. Now being hit by a sandbag is just a trivial matter. If you go to the battlefield and get slashed by a knife a few times, it’s not fun. Except occasionally he goes to practice by himself For a moment, he hardly cared about how Sun Xiao and the others practiced.

Gao Yuan has turned his attention to the only ten archers in the team.

Archers are extremely difficult to train. A spearman can be quickly trained in one or two months, and a swordsman can be trained for half a year at most, but an archer needs at least one or two years of training before he can use it. In a centurion, There are ten archers, and this ratio is already very high. In this era of cold weapons, archers as long-range strikes are an extremely important part of the army and are indispensable.

So on the edge of the camp, there were more than a dozen more targets, and ten archers stood in front of Gao Yuan in a row.

"Who is the most powerful?" Gao Yuan stared at the ten people and asked straightforwardly.

Nine of them looked at a thin and strong man in the team. This is a short man in his early thirties, with a height of more than one meter at most. Among men, he is considered short. I am not very confident in judging the age of the soldiers. I have shot several times and made mistakes again and again. It seems that people in this era are older. Maybe these people have lived too hard before and they are old.

"What's your name?" Gao Yuan asked.

"Return to Bing Cao, the villain is called infantry!"

"What?" Gao Yuan's eyes widened.

"The villain's surname is Bu, and he is called infantry!" the man said loudly.

Gao Yuan almost laughed out loud, Infantry, you really have a good name.

"What's your best grade?"

"Within fifty steps, the arrow hits!" the infantry said proudly.

As for bows and arrows, Gao Yuan is not very clear about the level of arrows and arrows at fifty steps.

"Bing Cao, that's Romance, and it's actually impossible to do it. If you can shoot a person from a hundred paces away, you are considered a marksman. It's just scratching the itch, as for the hundred-step piercing, it's impossible to do it." The infantry didn't give Gao Yuan any face, and directly refuted it.

Gao Yuan's rare old face blushed, looked at the confident infantry, and pointed to the target in the distance, "Come on, it's just talking without practice, shoot a few arrows and let me have a look."

The infantry stepped out in stride. After nearly a month of practice, these soldiers' words and deeds, their movements and movements, already have the demeanor of some modern soldiers.

Lifting the bow, picking up the arrow, nodding the arrow to the string, holding your breath, clamping the feather arrow with the index finger and middle finger, and putting it together with the thumb, suddenly draw the bow, the strength is not bad, the bow opens like a full moon, with a chuck, the feather arrow With a screaming sound, it came out of the string, and with a snatching sound, it was inserted right into the fifty-step target.

"Okay!" The onlookers applauded vigorously.

"Shoot a few more arrows!" Gao Yuan nodded slightly.

The infantryman stood his feet one behind the other, and shot four arrows in a row. Sure enough, as he said, the arrows all hit the target. After the four arrows passed, he gasped a little, "Bing Cao, I haven't touched it for a long time. Bow, I can't keep up with the strength, Bing Cao gives me a period of time, I can shoot ten arrows in one breath."

"That's right, the aim is good, but the hand is a bit weak." Gao Yuan pondered, "I don't know much about bows and arrows, but I have never eaten pork, but I have seen pigs run. Your wrist is still stable enough. The moment the arrow is shot, the trembling of the wrist may make your arrow miss by a tiny bit, and it may be a thousand miles away. Look at the human-shaped target, although the arrows are all hit, but among the five arrows, As long as two arrows hit the vital point, one arrow can be fatal, and the other three arrows are far behind."

"Yes, Bing Cao is right!"

Gao Yuan smiled slightly, and it could be seen that the infantry was still a little unconvinced.

"Everyone come to try it!" Gao Yuan waved his hand and said to the other nine people.

The other nine archers stepped forward one by one, and each shot five arrows. As expected, they were far from the infantry. Among the five arrows, the best one only hit four arrows, and the others hit three arrows and two arrows. The worst one is only hit by an arrow, and his face is flushed with embarrassment.

"Your common problem is that your arms and wrists are not stable enough. During this period of time, you should practice your arm strength and wrist strength first!" Gao Yuan didn't care what the infantry thought, walked to the edge of the field, picked up a stone, twisted the weight in his hand, and lifted Throw it to the infantry, "Hang this on the wrist, and then raise the bow to aim, you don't need to shoot the arrow, each time stick to a stick of incense or longer, the time you set, but not less than a stick of incense, others Do the same! Practice for more than ten days first, and I will come to see your results."

"This, is this useful?" The infantry was full of doubts. The soldier Cao just said that he didn't know much about bows and arrows.

"It's useful or not, you'll know it after you've practiced it!" Gao Yuan took the bow and arrow, held the flat end in his hand, and said, "Infantry, pull my wrist!"

Looking at Gao Yuan's horizontal arm, the infantry stretched out a hand, grabbed Gao Yuan's wrist, and pulled it lightly. Gao Yuan's hand did not move at all, not even trembling. Like a dragonfly shaking a column, I couldn't help being shocked, and suddenly exerted strength, this time I finally pulled Gao Yuan's wrist.

"That's right, your hand strength is pretty good!" Gao Yuan nodded. A person who is good at bows and arrows should have stronger arm strength than ordinary people, otherwise it would be impossible to pull the bowstring many times. Give the bow to the infantry, " Good luck!"

According to Gao Yuan's words, the infantry put themselves in a good posture. They already understood Gao Yuan's meaning in their hearts, and stretched their arms. Gao Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand to tap lightly. , my heart suddenly sank.

"I haven't tried hard yet!" Gao Yuan said, then turned and left, leaving behind the stunned infantry.

"Tiancheng, come with me!" Looking back at Gao Yuan, he had already walked away, and while walking, he stretched out his hand to greet Cao Tiancheng, who was watching the excitement in front of the beanbag array. At the other end, Sun Xiao and Yan Haibo had already crossed the bar. In the sandbag formation, punching and kicking made the sandbags fluttering. From time to time, I saw two people being hit by flying sandbags, but they both gritted their teeth and refused to admit defeat.
