The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

"Another thirty steps!"

Chapter 4 and Seven

After Liu Zheng said something to Yuan Zhou repeatedly, Yuan Zhou finally heard Liu Zheng's words clearly.

Although he felt unbelievable and even a little skeptical about Liu Zheng's sentence by another thirty steps, he did not deny Liu Zheng. Instead, he asked the soldiers on both sides to push the arrow targets out three more times according to Liu Zheng's instructions. Ten steps away.

The distance of thirty steps seems not far, but in fact it is already 20 meters away.And these 20 meters can determine whether a shooter is a top shooter or an ordinary master.

Tai Shici took out a bow he was wearing from his back, and then stepped forward a few steps. He didn't start shooting directly, but now he looked around, and his eyes were on the soldiers and generals nearby. He slowly looked up.

Different from when Gan Ning and Xu Huang were shooting arrows before, when Tai Shici came up, the people on the field not only did not show any calm look, but were talking a lot.

"Who is this man? How is he qualified to shoot arrows?"

"This kid is so arrogant at such a young age. He directly moved another 150 steps, which is a distance of [-] steps. General Xu Huang may not be able to do it, can he?"

"Where did the brat come from? How dare you be arrogant in front of so many generals if you are so ignorant?"

"Could this person be the brother-in-law of some general? What's his name? Why haven't I seen him before?"

Among the soldiers watching around, not many had seen Tai Shici.After all, he had just returned from Liaodong with Liu Zheng, and he rarely ran outside, and most of the soldiers onlookers here were Xu Huang's elite, who were usually responsible for guarding the safety of the entire Hepu City, and rarely left the barracks.There were not many opportunities to get in touch with Tai Shici, so when Tai Shici appeared, no one knew him.

When I didn't know Tai Shici, I was skeptical about Tai Shici's archery. Now I heard Tai Shici said that I would challenge the record set by their general Xu Huang by adding another [-] steps. The soldier became very curious about the young man in front of him.

Of course, more doubts about him, no one believes that he can hit the target 150 steps away.

Let alone 150 paces, these soldiers doubted that even a hundred paces could hit the target.

It wasn't just the soldiers who were suspicious.

Even the generals standing beside Tai Shici also had some doubts.

Zhou Cang stood by Zhou Chao's side. Zhou Chao was usually Zhou Chao's deputy. Zhou Chao was the battalion commander of the fourth battalion, and Zhou Chao was the deputy. After the battle in Lingling County, the two formed a deep bond. Friendship, plus the same surname of Zhou, the same family and origin, it is a good relationship.

"Old Chao, who is this kid? He's too fucking arrogant. It's only 150 steps. He thought he was General Huang Zhong."

In Zhou Cang's heart, Huang Zhong's archery skills are unrivaled, and the new kid who appeared in front of him, who is not worthy to lift Huang Zhong's shoes, dared to boast that he would shoot at a target 150 steps away.

The distance of 150 steps is a huge challenge for Zhou Cang. He may have no problem with hitting it, but it is almost impossible to hit the bull's-eye.

So Zhou Cang understood the difficulty of 150 steps, and thought even more that Tai Shici was bragging.

Zhou Chao shook his head when he heard Zhou Chao's inquiry.

"I don't know, this new kid seems to be brought back from Liaodong by the lord. I heard from General Gan Ning that he is someone the lord met in Qingzhou. He seems to be quite capable, but I also think he is so arrogant. Not too low-key at all, sooner or later you will suffer."

"You are so arrogant at such a young age, you must have never been beaten in life. After this competition is over, my brother will teach him!"

Zhou Cang looked at Zhou Chao jokingly, the two of them did not believe that Tai Shici could make a hit.

As for Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and the others, they don't even know Tai Shici as a number one figure. They don't even recognize the main generals in Liu Zheng's army. How would they know that Tai Shici just followed Liu Zheng? people.

However, although they didn't know Tai Shici, they could still see a bit of greenness from Tai Shici's face. In his early 20s, the youthful vigor still made Huang Gai and Cheng Pu feel that the young man in front of him People may be talking big.

"Another unrealistic young man, 150 steps, he really dared to open his mouth. I just felt that Xu Huang was sweating for him when he was about to shoot 120 steps. This person actually directly raised to 150 steps , isn’t this a joke!”

"Maybe, he did it on purpose. If he misses the shot, he will have an excuse. He said that 150 steps is too difficult. It's not because of his level. It's just to find a new level for himself."

Cheng Pu felt that Tai Shici couldn't hit the shot at all, and the reason why he increased the distance to 150 steps was to make excuses for himself not being able to hit the shot for a while.

In this way, although he won't be rewarded, he won't be too ashamed.

Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and the others were very curious, staring at Tai Shici. Others might not know Tai Shici's strength, but Gan Ning and Zhou Tai knew it well. After all, when Gan Ning was in Huang County, he was I have already seen Tai Shici's archery skills. At the same time, when I was in Liaodong, when I was bored on weekdays, Tai Shici would practice martial arts with Gan Ning and the others.

Both Gan Ning and Zhou Tai were very clear about Tai Shi Ci's strength, but he still didn't know what level Tai Shi Ci's archery skills had reached.

So at this time, both Gan Ning and Zhou Tai looked at it with anticipation, especially when Tai Shici said that he would add another [-] steps, Gan Ning was even more excited, because finally he could see a person who could The one who challenged Xu Huang and Huang Zhong.

Although Gan Ning didn't necessarily think that Tai Shici would definitely be able to hit the target, but Tai Shici dared to say that, most likely he was somewhat sure.

Tai Shici looked around the school grounds, and he naturally heard all the rumors around him, but his face didn't show any emotion, and he didn't even pay attention to the voices that were arguing.

Instead, he closed his eyes and immersed himself in his own world.

After waiting for about a minute, Tai Shici suddenly opened his eyes with a tense face, raised his bow, loaded the arrow, and shot.

A set of operations, smooth and smooth, without any unnecessary movements at all, in the blink of an eye, the arrow in his hand has been shot.

Many people didn't see Tai Shici's operation clearly in a blink of an eye.

Chapter 4 and eight shocked the audience

"End?"

Many onlookers didn't notice Tai Shici's shooting at all, they just felt that the arrow had disappeared suddenly.

When they turned their gazes to the archery target 150 steps away, they suddenly discovered that there was an extra black arrow on it.

Still won?

All the onlookers were stunned at this moment? ? ?

The voices that were discussing just now stopped abruptly at this moment.

On the campus, there was silence.

Even Zhou Cang, Zhou Chao and the others, the joking expressions on their faces just disappeared, replaced by a look of panic. On the school field, there are tens of thousands of soldiers, and there are more than a dozen generals, including the surrounding soldiers. Xie and the rest of the literati suddenly changed their expressions.

Stunned speechless.

Even Yuan Zhou, who was in charge of the scores, was stunned.

When he postponed the target, it never occurred to him that the young man would hit it.

In order not to be shot, he deliberately walked away a little bit. When he looked at the archery target again, an arrow faintly appeared on it, which meant that Tai Shici had shot it.

He hurried over to check which rings the arrow hit.

A huge archery target is divided into ten parts by black lines, and in the innermost small circle, it is painted with red things to become the center of the circle.

And that arrow was shot a little outside the center of the circle, at the position of the nine rings.

Missed the red heart, but hit the nine rings!

Nine rings!This score is already an extremely terrifying score. What surprised Yuan Zhou even more was that as many as half of the arrows entered the target.

Not only did it hit the target, but it was also very powerful. At such a long distance, it still has such lethality. Even with armor, it might be able to penetrate it.

"This"

Yuan Zhou himself was so surprised by this situation that he didn't speak for a while.

"Mr. Yuan Zhou, please also report the marks of Tai Shici's shooting."

It was only after Liu Zheng spoke that Yuan Zhou was relieved from the shock, and then he yelled at Liu Zheng at the top of his voice.

"Nine points!"

Yuan Zhou shouted two words.

These two words echoed throughout the school grounds.

Everyone who was already amazed by Tai Shici's archery skills, at this moment, after hearing Yuan Zhou's explosive score, had nothing but surprise.

"Hitted. Not only did he hit the target, but he also hit nine points, which means he was only a little short of the target!"

"This kid's archery skills are too good!"

"Oh my god, he can hit the target at a distance of 150 steps. This is still not human."

"Now I finally understand why this young man is standing by the lord's side."

"I'm sorry, I underestimated you just now, brother, you are a god!"

For a moment, those people who looked down on Tai Shici just now and thought Tai Shici was just a braggart who came out of nowhere, completely looked at Tai Shici with admiration.

Even Zhou Cang and Zhou Chao didn't say any sarcasm, but kept their mouths shut, their eyes fixed on Tai Shici, and they looked at this young general again.

Because they know that with this level of archery, staying by Liu Zheng's side, this person's future achievements will definitely not be lower, at least not worse than them, and he will definitely be the mainstay of Liu Zheng's army in the future.

After hearing the scores reported by Yuan Zhou, Liu Zheng also had a clear understanding of Tai Shici's level of strength and how good his archery skills are.

As far as the move shown now, Tai Shici's archery skills are much higher than those of Xu Huang, Gan Ning and others. Even Huang Zhong, I am afraid that he has a certain threat.

"Sure, Ziyi, I didn't expect you to be able to hit nine points at such a long distance. I am impressed by your archery skills. I thought you were only good at archery skills, but I didn't expect you to be so good at it. Really sharp."

"Hahaha, brother Liu Zheng, as I said earlier, if you compete with others, I may still be a little embarrassed, and maybe you may not be an opponent, but you actually agreed to compete with me in archery, then I am Tai Shici But I have never been afraid of anyone, how about it, now that I know how powerful I am, can I declare that I am No.1?"

Tai Shici's expression changed from nervousness at the beginning, to indifference later, to joy after knowing that he hit the target and scored nine points, the expression on his whole face changed many times.

Especially when he heard that after he shot, the surrounding soldiers' evaluation of him changed.

Tai Shici felt even more complacent, feeling the pleasure of slapping them in the face.

Just when he thought that Liu Zheng would declare decisively that he was No.1 and the champion, what Liu Zheng said made him worry.

"Don't worry, there are still people here who haven't shot yet."

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the low-key Huang Zhong who stood at the farthest side without showing the mountains or the water.

In fact, Huang Zhong had already paid attention to Tai Shici when Tai Shici was shooting arrows. This young man caught Huang Zhong's attention as soon as he started shooting. Taking a look, he has been closing his eyes to rest his mind, but when Tai Shici shot, Huang Zhong became interested.

Not only did he watch Tai Shici shoot the whole time, but even when Tai Shici shot an arrow and hit the target, Huang Zhong's attention was drawn to him. Huang Zhong even frowned, feeling a little afraid of Tai Shici.

This kind of archery is probably the best among people Huang Zhong has seen a lot for a long time.

"Brother Huang Zhong, are you coming out to compete with this little brother?"

Liu Zheng asked Huang Zhong in a tentative tone.

Huang Zhong didn't intend to participate in this competition. After all, everyone knows his archery skills, and he will definitely be No.1 when he comes out.

But now that Tai Shici appeared, Huang Zhong's competitive spirit was attracted, so after Liu Zheng spoke, Huang Zhong quickly agreed.

"Okay, I can try."

Seeing that Huang Zhong agreed, Liu Zheng immediately beamed with joy, and casually said to Huang Zhong.

"Don't hold back, let go, teach this young man a lesson, let him know what is beyond others, and there is a sky beyond the sky, and give him a lot of insight by the way."

Liu Zheng still has high hopes for Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong nodded, turned around and rushed to the weapon rack beside him, picking up an iron tire bow.

This is the heaviest bow on the weapon stand, and it is forged from the fine steel that Liu Zheng's blacksmiths have worked hard to forge.

Chapter 4 Zero Nine Finale

When Huang Zhong picked up the bow, Tai Shici, who was standing aside, rubbed his eyes.

"Brother Liu Zheng, don't you want to say, this old man is better at archery than me? I don't think it's worth comparing. Can he hit the target 150 steps away?"

Huang Zhong was very low-key from the beginning to the end, and he didn't look like a master of archery at all, so when Tai Shici saw Liu Zheng saying that Huang Zhong hadn't shot yet, he couldn't help but look down on Huang Zhong.

When Liu Zheng heard what Tai Shici said, he just smiled and didn't say much, because he knew that it would be very painful when he slapped his face.

Huang Zhong didn't mind either, he just picked up the iron body bow and looked at it carefully. In fact, the full name of this iron body bow is the copper body iron back bow.It is a laminated composite bow made of metal and bamboo rib horns, and the back is iron.

The whole body of this bow is made of metal. Even without arrows, the bow itself can be used as a weapon. Some generals can kill birds and beasts by swinging the bow.The iron tire bow is full of arrogance, and the bowstring is mixed with metal wires, so it also has a strong cutting force.People who use iron tire bows must wear a big ring to protect their fingers. It is said that a strong iron tire bow needs more than ten stones of strength from both arms to be able to pull it.

Of course, the iron body bow made by Liu Zheng's blacksmiths is not particularly sophisticated, and it does not require the strength of ten stones, but as an iron body bow, it definitely needs three stones to pull it. It's open.

The bow with the power of three stones is already a strong bow that many generals cannot match. Ordinary soldiers can only pull a bow of one stone with all their strength. There are very few generals who can pull a bow of two stones. , and the bow that can pull three stones is a rare existence.

Unless one is born with supernatural power, or can exercise hard to improve one's own strength, it is difficult for ordinary people to open the bow of three stones.

After Huang Zhong got the iron tire bow, he didn't start shooting immediately. Instead, he tested the strength of the bow first. He stretched out his hand and pulled at the bowstring, and found that the bowstring was tight, and he couldn't pull it casually at all. After opening, he frowned.

Then he increased his own strength and tried his best to test the iron tire bow. After a lot of effort, the bowstring was finally pulled away like a full moon, making Huang Zhong's arm tremble faintly.

After pulling it together a few times, Huang Zhong put the bow away, and then re-sized the archery target 150 steps away.

At this time, Tai Shici finally frowned. At first, he didn't think Huang Zhong, a middle-aged man, was a master of archery.

But Huang Zhong didn't shoot yet, he just pulled the bow string vigorously, fiddled with this iron body bow, and attracted Tai Shici's attention, this bow is an iron body bow.

Tai Shici is a master shooter, and he has heard of such bows and arrows as the iron tire bow. It's not that he brags, he can also open this kind of bow, but Huang Zhong, a middle-aged man, can also draw an iron tire bow. It was enough to attract Tai Shici's attention.

And it made Tai Shici have a greater curiosity about Huang Zhong, because those who can pull the bow of three stones will not be inferior in archery.

After all, it doesn't matter if your shooting skills are good or not, as long as you work hard, miracles will happen.
