Pirate Song

When Zhou Jun was named as the third player, Gao Huai glanced at Zhou Jun from a distance and saw Zhou Jun standing there calmly and calmly, not feeling nervous at all, so he secretly thought that Zhou Jun is mature now, so

The fact that he could still be so stable in the presence of many people showed that his psychological quality was quite good.

Zhou Jun forgot to glance at Gao Huaiyuan in the stands. Gao Huaiyuan nodded slightly as an encouragement to him. Zhou Jun then placed an arrow on the bowstring, tightened the bowstring with his fingers, pressed down on his left arm, and opened the bow with all his strength.

He just glanced at the shaking target, adjusted his arm slightly, held his breath, and shot an arrow. The arrow immediately drew a beautiful line in the air and hit the bullseye of the moving target, causing a burst of excitement in the venue.

Sound of cheers.

But Zhou Jun turned a deaf ear to the commotion in the field, cocked the arrow again, opened the bow and took aim. The action was done in one go, without any lag. He fired three arrows in a short period of time, with almost no pause in the middle. All three arrows hit the target, and even

It was even better than his shooting results at fixed targets. The three arrows were arranged in a glyph pattern on the red bullseye, so cleanly that people couldn't help but cheer for it.

"Good archery skills! This guy is really a marksman!" Liu Zhixian listened to the cheers in the field and immediately clapped his hands and shouted.

After Zhou Jun finished shooting the three arrows, he slightly clasped his fists at the cheering crowd without any sense of pride. He raised his legs and stepped aside, waiting for the next two arrows.

After watching Zhou Jun's archery skills, one of the people following him suddenly felt a little discouraged. He boasted that his archery skills were good, but at this time he was restless and wanted to hit the target and surpass Zhou Jun. It was obviously impossible for him to do so.

After pulling the bow for a long time, I finally made up my mind to release the arrow. The result was not ideal. Although I hit the target, the arrow was stuck on the edge of the target, and the arrow feathers drooped, giving a feeling of weakness.

Although he tried hard to stabilize his emotions for the next two arrows, the results were not very satisfactory. They basically hit the edge of the target and failed to hit the bullseye. In this way, the difference between the two arrows was clear, and the hope of winning the first prize also disappeared.

Disillusioned.

Only the fifth one came up and caught Gao Huaiyuan's attention. This archer was not tall, but he was very stocky and had an indifferent expression. After he stood firm, he was as steady as a bell and had the same unmoved expression.

Gao Huaiyuan slightly shouted in his heart, a person like this would never make the same mistakes as ordinary people. Such an attitude is related to success or failure. It seems that Zhou Jun has met his opponent.

As expected by Gao Huaiyuan, after the man stood still, he raised his head and felt the direction of the wind, then opened his bow and let go of the arrow. He also shot three arrows in a row at a fast draw, and then the sound of thunder rang out again in the field.

There were cheers, Gao Huaiyuan had sharp eyes, the old man

From a distance, he could see that this man's three arrows also hit the target, and they were arranged more densely than the three arrows shot by Zhou Jun. In this way, Zhou Jun was suppressed. No need to think about it, with what he just said

As for the results, Zhou Jun had no hope of winning the championship.

"Good archery skills!" Gao Huaiyuan couldn't help shouting, and raised his hands to applaud to express his congratulations.

Not long after, the results were tallied up. Zhou Jun was only one link away. He finally lost to this man and only got second place. Zhou Jun also knew that he had failed. He shook his head slightly, but he quickly recovered.

He regained his composure and stepped forward to congratulate the man. His magnanimity impressed everyone around him, and they all nodded to express their regret for Zhou Jun.

"Okay! I didn't expect that we really have a master in Daye County. Such shooting skills are simply amazing. What is this person's name? I want to see him!" Liu Zhixian was in a good mood at this moment, thinking that Daye County could shoot two

He was quite proud to be called such a sharpshooter, so he immediately asked the officer next to him who was calling his name.

"This man's surname is Dong Mingqiang. He is from Lingxiang Township. He is a hunter. He is now the instructor of the Lingxiang Township Archery Society!" The police officer who was asked immediately looked up the man's name and reported his situation to Liu Zhixian.

"Very good! I will personally award awards to this Dong Qiang and that Zhou Jun later! Haha!" Liu Zhixian nodded repeatedly and ordered.

"Zhou Jun is exempted. We only set the number one spot this time, so he has no chance!" Gao Huaiyuan immediately said to Magistrate Liu.

"This matter can be accommodating! Zhou Jun's archery skills are quite good, so he should be given some rewards. Why should he be so serious?" Magistrate Liu always felt that Zhou Jun's archery skills were good, and it would be unreasonable not to give him some rewards.

, so he discussed it with Gao Huaiyuan.

"No! Since the rules are like this, we can only handle it as such. The second is the second, and taking care of it is absolutely impossible! Otherwise, how can the third place be taken care of? This is inappropriate!" Gao Huaiyuan immediately shook his head.

road.

Liu Zhixian was immediately speechless. After being stunned for a moment, he had no choice but to shake his head and sigh, feeling a little sorry for Zhou Jun!

As for the name Dong Qiang, Gao Huaiyuan also firmly remembered it in his heart. The man who could suppress Zhou Jun and take the top spot in archery was considered a good player. Gao Huaiyuan was very interested in him and looked at him from afar.

I looked at Dong Qiang and kept him in my heart.

What follows is the group offensive and defensive competition of each archery club. For this kind of competition, real swords and guns are naturally impossible. For this reason, Gao Huaiyuan prepared wooden knives, wooden guns, lime and other items for them in advance, and also prepared dozens of thick sets.

They use cotton armor as their protection, and then let the two teams who drew lots attack each other to determine the winner.

This kind of competition is very fresh. It is different from the previous military parades of the Song Army. It is more offensive and interesting both in terms of viewing and actual combat. What is being reviewed is the cooperation between the archers of each archery club.

It is very good for improving synergy, but this style of play has fewer people, but at least it allows the local warriors to effectively

Mastering the cooperation between companions in the battle formation is very beneficial to improving the overall combat effectiveness. After all, in a war, no matter how powerful a person is, if he falls into the enemy without the cover of his companions, he will still die alone. With companions

After protecting each other, people's chances of survival on the battlefield will be greatly improved. This is also Gao Huaiyuan's original intention of holding such a competition.

The drawing of lots is handled by the county government's superintendent. Each team sends representatives to the drawing place to draw lots, rank out their opponents, and then come down in order to start the competition. This kind of competition is much more troublesome than archery. Wear cotton armor.

,choose weapon

, arranging the array takes time, and it will definitely not work if you want to finish it in one day, but this is all within expectation. The county government has already made preparations in advance, and has arranged the autumn harvest competition for three days, which is enough

All tests completed.

When this kind of competition started, the school field became even more lively. The two teams at the end were obviously not very experienced. Although they looked decent together, when the two teams rushed together, everything became chaotic.

, swords and guns were used simultaneously to slash and kill, and there was no longer any coordination.

Fortunately, there is still a group of referees supervising, otherwise, after someone is hit, he still refuses to come out with a wooden sword and a wooden gun, and fights with his opponent on the field, which almost turns into a farce, and it is just a competition.

It almost turned into a gang fight involving guys.

Gao Huaiyuan looked at the chaotic scene in the field and couldn't help but cover his eyes. He couldn't bear to watch any more. It seems that the next step is for the archery clubs to strengthen their training in this area! What kind of battle formation is this?

Yeah! Compared to the common people fighting in groups, it’s really not much better!

As a result, after Guo Liang scolded them on the court, the two teams were separated, and all of them were eliminated immediately regardless of victory or defeat. They were not allowed to participate in the next competition, so that the two teams would continue to be embarrassed.

.

Although the bruised and bruised guys from the two teams were dissatisfied, they did not dare to make a mistake because the county government officials were all there, so they had to leave the field in despair and went to the sidelines as spectators, which caused a burst of laughter inside and outside the field.

After learning from the experience of the first group, the situation began to improve a lot. The next two teams became much more disciplined, and their offense and defense began to show some signs of each other. Finally, they were out of the category of fighting.

, they began to cooperate to a certain extent when attacking each other, and the combatants also became more conscious. After being attacked, they left the field to watch the battle as required. The fight became more impressive, and they received a round of applause from the onlookers.

.

Liu Zhixian is a standard civil servant. He has never seen a battle. After seeing such a fighting method for the first time, he became even more interested. He shook his head and said: "It turns out that this is how the battle is fought. It seems that I

Today is an eye-opener!"

Gao Huaiyuan curled his lips slightly and thought to himself, if this can be considered a war, then what should the scene of tens of thousands of people fighting on the battlefield be? How ignorant! But he just slandered and would not really say it.

The twenty-person team battle will not last long. Soon, the well-organized team will kill all the opponents and win. Then the winning team will stand in the field and immediately burst into cheers. The losing team will naturally feel dejected.

to leave the field to make room for the next competition.

Everyone watched with great interest. The nearby big trees were full of people. It really made people worry whether these trees would be crushed on the spot. Gao Huaiyuan was worried about an accident, so he had to arrange for people to drive people off those trees to come down and watch.

, I was so busy that I felt a little dizzy.

I kept busy like this until dark, and finally completed three competitions. The first day of competitions came to an end. However, people were still enthusiastic and gathered on the school field outside the city and refused to leave. Such a grand occasion compared to

The New Year and festivals are even more lively, and people in Daye County rarely encounter such a scene, and a martial arts competition gradually turns into a carnival.

The vendors had a very keen sense of smell, and soon they set up their stalls on the school grounds outside the city and started their small business. Piles of bonfires were lit on the school grounds, and people from various archery clubs sat around.

We ate and chatted next to the campfire, and from time to time there were children playing among the crowd.

After Gao Huaiyuan arranged the evening's affairs, he sent Liu Zhixian and others back to his mansion in the city. Liu Zhixian's group was in great spirits, chatting and laughing all the way, and gathered in a restaurant to drink.

When Gao Huaiyuan returned to his residence, Zhou Jun quickly knocked on the door and asked for an audience, and was invited into the room by Gao Huaiyuan.

"You are so incompetent that you have embarrassed the young master today! You failed to take back the top shot in shooting! Please punish the young master!" Zhou Jun knelt down in front of Gao Huaiyuan with a look of shame on his face and apologized.

"Get up! The strong will have the strong. Don't forget the old saying of our ancestors, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people! Folks have always been a place where dragons and tigers are hidden. It seems that Dong Qiang was born as a hunter, and his archery skills should be

It has been learned since childhood. You just need to add more

Practice hard, and you will be successful one day! But today you are considered to have been defeated, and it does not mean that our Gaojiazhuang's reputation has been ruined. Don't worry too much about this matter! There is no victorious general in this world, so bear with me

Frustration has only advantages and no disadvantages for you. You should first

Go back and rest, and prepare well for tomorrow's competition. You must come out on top in this offensive competition!" Gao Huaiyuan called Zhou Jun up and comforted him. To be honest, Zhou Jun's defeat today was something he did not expect.

, but for this matter,

He didn't take it to heart. The boys like Zhou Jun were already showing some signs of raising their tails. He felt that their abilities should be quite good in Daye County, and someone should come and dampen their spirits.

They don't know how deep the sky is and how high it is.

After Zhou Jun stood up, he nodded and said: "You have learned a lesson! I will go back and make preparations. I will come back tomorrow to win the first place in the battle!"

Gao Huaiyuan naturally has confidence in Zhou Jun's guarantee, because in Daye County, the ones with the most experience in front of the battle are his gang of boys. Zhou Jun can be said to be second only to Huang Yan and Zhou Hao among these people.

One, more than a year of battlefield experience, let him

Having learned a lot, and with the occasional reminders from myself and Zhou Hao, the people in the Gaojiazhuang Archery Club have reached a pretty good level in terms of overall cooperation. If such advantageous conditions still fail,

It's a bit unreasonable.

So when the gong started on the school field the next day, the Gaojiazhuang Archery Club, who was first on the scene, charged forward and beat the opponent to a pulp. Only one person on his side was eliminated, and all 20 people on the opponent's side were wiped out. It was such a one-sided battle.

Everyone was stunned. It seemed that the people in Gaojiazhuang were not very tough either.

They were not at any advantage compared to their opponents, but what was strange was that after such a charge, their opponents were completely overwhelmed by them and were completely defeated. They could not organize any effective attacks. As a result, they were all defeated in just a few moments.

After clearing the stage, another upset came out, which attracted cheers from the audience.

"Gao County Lieutenant! The bow and arrow club in Gaojiazhuang is really extraordinary and their performance is really good. They must have received your guidance!" After watching Gaojiazhuang's performance, Liu Zhixian turned around and asked Gao Huaiyuan with a smile.

"Mr. Liu, I don't have any favoritism at all when it comes to battle formations. In the past six months, I have personally given guidance to each of the archery clubs. It can only be said that some bow and arrow clubs don't pay much attention to it.

The most important thing on the battlefield is cooperation. The difference between an elite and a mob is this. We are all people, and only through cooperation can we exert our greatest combat effectiveness. If we don't pay attention to collaborators, we will naturally fail!" Gao Huaiyuan explained to Liu Zhixian disapprovingly.

.

Liu Zhixian thought about it for a while, and found that this was really the case. It seemed that they were just reading about what it would be like to die on the battlefield. No wonder Gao Huaiyuan was able to lead his troops to perform meritorious service in front of the battle, and he was able to escape unscathed, but Wang County Lieutenant took the risk.

Paobian died in front of the army, which is probably the difference between them! Liu Zhixian finally learned a lesson and understood some things about the battlefield.

After watching the performance of the Gaojiazhuang Archery Club, the next few competitions were nothing to watch. Basically, the two sides were equally powerful. There was offense and defense at the beginning, but often after someone left the field, the formation was in chaos.

, eventually turned into a melee, and turned into a fight. The result was that after one side won, there were not many people left. This result was really embarrassing compared to what happened in Gaojiazhuang just now.

Therefore, the winning team can enter the next competition. After the elimination of the original twelve teams, only five were left. This was a bit difficult to arrange, so Gao Huaiyuan came up with a plan. After consulting Liu Zhixian, Liu Zhixian

Even laymen can see the combat effectiveness of Gaojiazhuang Archery Club and other teams.

They were not on the same level, so they nodded and agreed to let the remaining four teams draw lots again. Let's play a semi-final first. The two winning teams were tied together to deal with the Gaojiazhuang team. This seemed unfair, but Gaojiazhuang

The performance of the archery club was really good, which caused dissatisfaction among many teams.

After the results were announced, there was an uproar on the field. Some people expressed dissatisfaction with the unfair treatment of the Gaojiazhuang Archery Club, but most people still made noises, hoping to see a more exciting competition, so the field was in chaos for a while.

It became quiet.

However, Gao Huaiyuan finally ordered to proceed in accordance with such requirements, and the four archery club teams began to fight again.

Before lunch, two teams were finally decided to enter the decisive battle. Everyone's appetite was whetted, and they all discussed whether the Gaojiazhuang Archery Club could withstand the siege of the two teams. Taking advantage of lunch time, the gambling house

A game was also set up outside the venue for gamblers to place bets to see who would win.

After the gamblers thought twice, most of them placed their bets on the other two archery clubs. In their opinion, no matter how powerful the people of Gaojiazhuang were, they could not defeat twice as many people as they did.

The rate is smaller, but at least the chance of winning money is much greater.

Taking advantage of lunch, Gao Huaiyuan quietly called Mr. Xing aside and asked in a low voice: "Tell me honestly, what are the odds on the gambling house now! Don't tell me that you don't know, otherwise, huh

snort……"

Xing Baotou rubbed his hands with a sneer on his face and replied: "This...it turns out that the county captain already knows about this! This...you just heard about it! Haha!"

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me what the odds are now!" Gao Huaiyuan sneered at Xing Captou.

Xing Captou couldn't see it anymore, so he had to call out honestly: "Well...the odds! It seems that the Gaojiazhuang side is now paying eight to one! The two teams over there are currently paying three to ten!"
