Xu Qi'an looked at the arrow branches falling not far away from the target, and was a little unbelievable.

Xiao Zan smiled slightly and said, "Did you see it? This archery looks easy, but it is actually very difficult. Next!"

With Xu Qi'an comparing, everyone realized how difficult it was for Xiao Zan to hit the target just now, and they put away their contemptuous thoughts one by one.

Sure enough, several people did not hit the target next time, but Xiao Zan was not too disappointed. He was touching everyone's bottom.

But Chen Zheng was a little anxious. The Archery Team was an important part of his plan. If it could not cause certain damage to the enemy, the fire attack strategy behind would be meaningless.

"Brother Xiao, their archery skills are really not quite satisfactory." Chen Zheng said worriedly.

Xiao Zan smiled slightly and said, "Time is too tight, it is impossible for each of them to be like this young master, able to penetrate the Yangyang in a hundred steps and ejaculate wherever they point."

"But is such a bow and arrow team useful?" Chen Zheng said in confusion.

"It's useless, right?" Li Shuang echoed.

Xiao Zan laughed and said, "You two don't seem to know much about the battle formation. On the battlefield, the power of bows and arrows is not only reflected in the accuracy of shooting, but also in the wide coverage!"

"Please tell me clearly, Brother Xiao." Chen Zhengdao, he really doesn't understand the battle formation, there is no need to pretend to understand if he doesn't know.

Xiao Zan coughed lightly and began his performance, saying: "This bow and arrow shooting is a range strike. Within a certain range, the enemy can be avoided. Even when avoiding bow and arrow, they will be distracted, and there will be a chance to defeat them."

Li Shuang thought for a while and said, "But no one else can attack. Even if they are distracted, we will not have a chance to defeat them."

Xiao Zan paused, he ignored this problem, and there was no one to adjust the follow-up, so it would be useless even if the other party was in chaos.

Chen Zheng was speechless. Xiao Zan was talking about his feelings on paper, and he had not thought about it carefully yet.

Sweat beads oozing from Xiao Zan's forehead. Chen Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Even if no one else is transferred, there is no need to worry."

"No, Brother Chen, you don't understand. If those pirates are brought close, how will these archers be their opponents? Will they still be slaughtered?" Xiao Zan said distressedly, "Oh, I'm not thinking well, what should I do? What should I do!"

Chen Zheng patted Xiao Zan and said, "Brother Xiao doesn't need to be upset, you don't have to worry about this."

"Yes, Brother Xiao, let's think of other solutions." Li Shuang also comforted her.

Xiao Zan said: "What else can I do? Even if there are people now, there is not enough time to train."

Chen Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Brother Xiao, you forgot one thing."

"Ah?" Xiao Zan's face looked a little ugly. Why did he forget another thing?

"Brother Chen, what did I forget? Please remind me quickly." Xiao Zan said.

Chen Zheng pointed to the team in front and said, "Brother Xiao, have you forgotten what their identities are?"

Xiao Zan glanced at them and said, "I haven't forgotten. Are these people the yamen runners of the county yamen, Kuaishou, and crew members on the sea patrol boat?"

Chen Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, they are not ordinary people, they have combat power!"

After saying that, Chen Zheng walked up to everyone and said, "Everyone, if the pirates come, will you be afraid?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Qi'an, who had just shot an arrow and left the target, burst into laughter and said, "Master Chen, you are really good at joking. Are we afraid of pirates? To be honest, Mr. Chen, there are already as many pirates as many as three, so why fear them?"

"That's right, Master Chen, have you forgotten? That night, I personally beat the pirate named Kato." Another yamen runner said.

"Oh, of course I haven't forgotten." Chen Zhengdao, but he didn't recognize him. It was this person who was executed at that time.

Not to mention the crew on the patrol ship, they fought directly with the pirates, so naturally they were not afraid.

Others also expressed their opinions, saying that they were not afraid of pirates at all, and even wanted to fight with them.

Chen Zheng was very satisfied with their full fighting enthusiasm. He turned around and said to Xiao Zan: "Brother Xiao, have you seen it? These people put down the bow in their hands and are the most powerful warriors."

After hearing this, Xiao Zan slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, why didn't I expect it? They are masters of robbers themselves, oh, I'm too worried."

Chen Zheng was speechless. He obviously didn't think about it, but he actually said that he was worried too much, and there was no one except Xiao Zan.

Li Shuang was overjoyed and said happily: "If this is the case, even if the pirates wade through my master's trap formation and avoid Brother Xiao's arrow rain formation, when they approach our soldiers, they would be greeted by a bright big knife. I would be a little excited to think about that scene."

Xiao Zan recovered his spirit and said to the idle yamen runner next to him: "Go and inform County Magistrate Li, my team must be equipped with a big sword and a shield."

Seeing that Xiao Zan was energetic again, Chen Zheng felt much more relaxed.

Xiao Zan said to Chen Zheng: "I have figured out the archery level of these people at this moment, and it can be said that there is almost no such thing as this, so I have to learn from the basics."

"Do you have enough time?" Chen Zheng was most concerned about this.

Xiao Zan thought about it, and finally nodded, saying, "Time should be enough. They all used Qizheng potions to temper their bodies. There should be no problem with strength. I will give them some archery skills and that's all."

There is no better way now. I don’t know when reinforcements will arrive, so I can only hope that Xiao Zan is more reliable and there is no problem with the training archer team.

"Then Brother Xiao starts training, let's take a look around." Chen Zheng said to Xiao Zan.

Xiao Zan was not polite, and turned around and shouted to everyone, "Now, everyone picks up the bow in their hands, and then spreads left and right, back and forth, about an arm's length."

With the demonstration just now, everyone knew that Xiao Zan's bowing technique was amazing, so no one complained at all, but did everything according to Xiao Zan's request.

Next, Xiao Zan began to teach them how to shoot arrows.

What surprised Chen Zheng was that Xiao Zan did not directly ask them to practice archery, but divided the bow-bending archery movements into several parts, and then taught them one by one.

Chen Zheng couldn't help but praise him. Xiao Zan actually knew how to decompose the movements. This way, he learned it not only quickly, but also has a good foundation.

It seems that the person who taught Xiao Zan to shoot archery at the time was also a master.

When everyone was learning, they were quite honest. There were only a few people, and it seemed that they were really too stupid. There were always a few connection movements that were not done well.

The rest of the people have basically learned it.

After learning the complete set of archery movements, the sun was already setting in the west, and a red cloud hung in the west, which looked very beautiful.

Of course, Xiao Zan was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery. He said to everyone who had learned archery: "You have already learned archery just now. You can say that you have learned it, but..."

A "but" shows that the archery that everyone learned was still a bit insufficient. Xiao Zan pondered for a long time before saying the words after "but".

"But I don't know how much you have learned, so we need to check again to see if you have made any progress." Xiao Zan said.

"I'll do it!" As expected, Kuaishou Xu Qi'an stood up again.

But this time, Xu Qi'an's actions of catching the bow, placing the arrow, and bending the bow were very standard, and Chen Zheng didn't see any flaws at all.

Whoosh!

Xu Qi'an let go of the bowstring and flew out at a very fast speed, with the target being a hundred steps away.

Bang!

"I shot!"

Someone shouted in the crowd. Chen Zheng looked around and saw that the arrow was nailed to the target, but the position was on the edge. If calculated based on the score, Xu Qi'an's score was not high this time.

But compared to the off-target just now, this progress is obvious to all.

Simply put, Xu Qi'an's score was zero before, but this time Xu Qi'an's score was two points, while Xiao Zan's score was eight points.

Although Xu Qi'an only improved two points, the progress of these two points is a qualitative leap, and it is even more important than the six points that he and Xiao Zan are apart.

From nothing to something, qualitative change is infinite and unmeasurable.

Xu Qian was also quite satisfied, and then the next one.

Chen Zheng could clearly see that this time, their archery skills have been greatly improved. Although they shot in a more biased manner, many people still shot on the target.

Especially Meng Chujiu, who has a foundation in kung fu and has fully absorbed Yu Qizheng's medicine liquid, and has a very good control over power and skills.

Meng Chujiu's arrow was already very close to the bull's eye. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was shooting better than Xiao Zan just now.

Chen Zheng originally thought that after seeing Xiao Zan, he would have to be unable to get along with his face, so he wanted to comfort him.

But who knew that Xiao Zan laughed, came to Meng Chujiu, patted his shoulder hard and said, "You are learning well! You are better than me so soon. Well, you have a good potential. I am optimistic about you!"

Meng Chujiu grinned and said, "This is all taught by Mr. Xiao, otherwise it would be off-target."

Xiao Zan was very happy after hearing Meng Chujiu's words. That's right. No matter how good you ejaculate, you didn't teach me?

"When I arrive on the battlefield, shoot a few more pirates!" Xiao Zan said with a smile.

Meng Chujiu nodded and said, "Prince Xiao, please rest assured, everything is under control!"

At this time, the sun completely hid behind the mountain, and it became dark, so it was obvious that it could not shoot arrows.

Chen Zheng said to Xiao Zan: "The pirates have been invading these two days. Everyone will be on guard tonight, be ready at any time, and keep people on guard at night."

Xiao Zan and Li Shuang agreed with Chen Zheng's opinion very much, so Xiao Zan distributed the ten bows and ten crossbows he had commissioned Chen Zheng to create, as well as a large number of Qinghai arrows.

The number of bows and crossbows is limited, so you can only distribute them with the best archery technique.

The other one is the sword and shield. At Chen Zheng’s reminder and Xiao Zan’s request, Li Gang sent someone to send some swords and shields from the arsenal, one set for each person.

Meng Chujiu had the Zhan Feng he carried with him, but he didn't use the county government's standard big knife. He was not used to it.

After the arrangement was made, Chen Zheng saw that it was already late, so he said, "Brother Jiu, go to your place to have some food, go to bed early tonight, and there may be a big battle tomorrow."

The four of them cleaned up and came to Juquande Restaurant.

Although the restaurant has been closed in the past two days, there are still fresh meat stored in the warehouse.

Meng Chujiu took out some and directly grilled. After a while, the meat was fragrant and the four of them were croaking.

After eating and drinking, Li Shuang was the first to stand up and said, "Two, let's go to the harbor first."

Chen Zheng frowned and said, "It's so late, why are you still going to the harbor?"
