At the shooting range, the recruits are placing archery targets and will conduct archery assessments soon. Everyone does not need to shoot. New recruits who are confident in their shooting skills can take the exam.

In the past, when the Hulin Army recruited soldiers, they recruited honest farmers, miners, etc., and usually recruited thousands of soldiers regularly, with almost few having combat skills.

Those who are hunters can shoot arrows, but this is a minority. Most people have never touched a bow, and they can't even tell the left and right, let alone the others, so there are many training programs that these recruits need to receive when entering the battalion.

However, this year is a little different. The Hulin Army has set up a recruitment office and accepts young people from all over the world to join the army throughout the year. The quality of the visitors is uneven, and some people have inevitably been soldiers.

Or maybe for various reasons, they have certain combat skills, are skilled in bows and horses, and have ever killed people and seen blood, so they should "teach according to their aptitude" for such people.

But the more important reason is to prepare to grind the other party's sharpness so as not to be dissatisfied in your heart and turn into a thorn.

Although Hulin Army is very good at dealing with thorns, it is much easier to let the opponent see the gap in strength before the training begins.

The target was placed outside the distance of seventy steps, and the bow and arrow were ready. The recruits were taking the list and the recruits who signed up for the assessment left the list and went forward to select bows.

Everyone has different arm strength, so the bows suitable for each other are also different. No matter how good the shooting skills are for a slightly weaker person, he will not be able to shoot accurately if he takes a bow with too much strength. Therefore, there are many alternative bows. Each recruit chose the bow that he thought was good at, and there was a pot of arrows.

"There are fifteen arrows in each pot, five can be used to warm up, find out the feeling, and take a look at the test later. Ten arrows must be shot at the bull's eye before counting..."

"Sixth Middle School is passing, seventh Middle School is passing, eighth Middle School is good, ninth Middle School is excellent, all-time high school is excellent."

Zhang Dinghe pulled out an arrow from the quiver and looked at it. The workmanship was quite exquisite, but the arrowhead was a bit special, a double-cone arrowhead with the shape of "Lu".

The team is beginning to solve the problem: "You may have noticed that the arrows in your hands are a bit strange, and the arrows are unusual in style. They are target arrows, which are specially used for practicing arrows."

"Each person can only test five arrows at most. Of course, if you are confident, you can start the assessment after you try one or two arrows."

"The time to test arrows is limited, let's start now."

Zhang Dinghe often practiced arrows when he was a guard, so he was full of confidence. After trying two arrows, he felt that he was very quick to get started. He was about to shoot another arrow and started the assessment, but someone took a step faster than him.

It was a man of similar grade to him. He looked very energetic and strong. Judging from his words and deeds, he seemed to have passed the army.

As the first person to be tested, the man was not nervous at all. He shot ten arrows in just a short time, and the arrow hit the bull's eye.

"Ten shots and ten shots are good."

The recruits were recording the results without any surprises. Then they looked at the recruits and asked, "Who is ready next?"

Zhang Dinghe raised his hand and became the second archer. His grade was eight out of ten arrows. This was his normal level and he did not make any mistakes when he was playing on the spot.

After looking at the man, Zhang Dinghe was still very impressed. The range of arrows when the two armies fought was usually between seventy and eighty steps, which was very eye-catching and the requirements for shooting skills were not low.

It doesn't look like a hunter, I think he has also been with the army?

Just as he was thinking, the archery assessment was over, and all the ten new recruits who participated were above the passing line. The powerful Mai Tie Staff was No. 6, and only the first person was No. 10.

"Please introduce yourself to your comrades."

The man saluted to his comrades-in-arms and said with a full aura: "I have a surname called Husi and my name is Wanshan. I am from Luoyang, Henan."

Many people don’t understand the obvious Luoyang accent, but Zhang Dinghe can understand it a little.

When Emperor Wei left Luoyang and entered Guanzhong, many people moved to Chang'an to settle down, so there were many people in Chang'an who spoke Luoyang accent. Among the former palace guards, there were many Luoyang comrades.

Seeing that many new recruits had admiration, Huswanshan roughly explained his resume: He has worked in the army, so his shooting skills are OK.

After passing the army, he came here to join the Hulin Army. I think Huswanshan had been with the Sui Army before, and he appeared here for various reasons?

Zhang Dinghe thought a lot, but most other people didn’t have that many ideas. They had no skills, so when they saw ten shots, they only knew how to describe them as “arrower”.

Suddenly, drums burst out outside the wall, and shouts rushed like a tide, as if they were carrying out some activity. The team saw that the recruits were all restless, and mumbled with the team's deputy and let them go out.

After a while, the team deputy turned back and saw him nodding to him. The team was looking at the recruits and laughing: "There is a competition next door. Are you interested in showing your own methods?"

Mai Tiebang raised his hand hard, and after he had permission, he asked, "Squadron, what is the competition?"

"Strength, degree, and shooting skills!"

"So how many people compete?"

"Hulin Army, Huangzhou Prefecture and County Army, Huangzhou Prefecture and Army, a big competition!"

......

The door slowly opened, and the scene in front of everyone was stunned:

In front of me was a ring, surrounded by stands staggered like steps, filled with soldiers in military uniforms, and the ring was on the ring.

There are many such venues, not only are there rings, but also various venues. Not only are there corners, but there are other competitions, cheering and shouting in the stands, drums and horns are endless.

Just listening to each other on the side makes people feel excited. Even Zhang Dinghe, who claimed to have seen a big scene, had his heart beat loudly.

Under the leadership of the team, the recruits lined up to the ring directly in front of the game. It seemed that the corner had just ended, and the competition was resting in the audience.

The sound of gongs sounded, and the soldiers in the stands around the ring suddenly became quiet. Everyone's eyes looked at the team that had just entered.

A general walked onto the ring and shouted with a paper loudspeaker: "My sons! These are newly enlisted recruits, very good. If you want to come here to show your skills, do you think you're good?"

"good!"

The sound of rushing in an instant made Zhang Dinghe and others buzz. Many new recruits who had never seen the world were already at a loss.

"Just just now, the troops of the government and county soldiers arrived at the corner. Whoever you have confidence in getting to the corner will leave!"

After hearing what the team said, Mai Tiebing was the first to leave the list, and then Zhang Dinghe was the one who left the list. Hu Siwanshan, who was good at shooting skills, also came out, but was stopped by the team's deputy:

"It will be more than archery in a while, so keep your energy."

Seeing that the recruits had sent people, the general who served as the referee asked with a loudspeaker: "Newbie, who do you want to challenge?"

"Mai Tie Staff, you have the most strength, you can choose!"

"Then choose the military soldiers!"

The choice of Mai Tie Staff is also the choice of others. In their opinion, the government soldiers are always stronger than the county soldiers, so it would be interesting to challenge someone with stronger abilities.

As the "forward", Mai Tiebang was the first to play and set the forthcoming recruits.

At the popular corners of each **, he took off his clothes according to the rules, bare his shirt and legs, wrapped his long strips of cloth around his waist, and then put on shorts and went to the ring.

On the stage, no one from the government troops appeared on the stage. The referee looked at the burly Mai Tiegang and nodded and said, "The original corner was still in the team, and you can choose another person from the stage."

Mai Tiebang bowed and said, "No, please send the most powerful person up."

"I challenge the most powerful one right now? That won't work!" The referee smiled, turned around and asked loudly to the side of the mansion's army: "The enemy's vanguard is calling, who dares to fight!"

"Let me meet him when I come!"

A man strode to the ring. At first, Mai Tie Stick was worried that it was a reed stick. After looking closely, he breathed a sigh of relief: the man had a strong figure, his beard was as strong as copper wire, and his face was like a live crab.

It looks very fierce, so it just shows my tricks!

"I am the Grand Governor Shi Wanbao, who is calling out!"

"Shixing the wheat iron rod!"
