The number of people who came to register to apply was beyond everyone's imagination. It seems that gold and official positions are very attractive.
The soldiers in the military camp train very hard, and the general allows them to participate in competitions. Who is willing to miss the opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune.
Especially the veterans of the Left Guard Army are full of confidence. Some of them have been in the army for seven or eight years, which gives them an advantage over the newcomers.
Liu Zhong was happy but also a little annoyed. The newly recruited people were much better than the previous ones. He couldn't drive away the people who had been recruited before.
The competition and selection will begin on the 15th, and the arena will be divided into two parts. Fu Shui and Cao Zhou were in the water stronghold, and archery was divided into land archery and water archery. The competition venue was in the open space outside Du Shui Prison. Yang Anxuan ordered people to build ten earthen platforms and compete on the platform.
In order to enhance the influence of the Jiangxun Supervisor, Yang Anxuan ordered that ordinary people be allowed to come and watch the competition. An endless stream of people came to Yihe Town to participate in and watch the competition every day, which felt like an ancient sports meeting.
More than a thousand people came to take the exam, and many people applied for two exams at the same time. As the organizer, Liu Zhong was a little confused. How to coordinate the exam is a tricky thing.
Yang Anxuan was giving instructions to Liu Zhong in the lobby. Liu Zhong was confused, but Xu Jing, who was listening in, understood and interjected questions from time to time. Seeing that he got the point, Yang Anxuan simply left the matter of organizing the competition to Xu Jing. .
Xu Jing was very excited after receiving the appointment from Yang Zheng. He organized the scribes to take charge of each area. Yang Anxuan sent forty soldiers who had not participated in the competition for him to dispatch. The competition went on smoothly and smoothly.
Three days later, amid the cheers of thousands of people, Qian Lei took the lead in swimming to the finish line, stepping on the water to remove the red flag tied to the buoy, and waved it toward the cheering crowd on the shore.
The next day, it was Qian Lei who drove the boat through many obstacles on the water and took the lead in getting the red flag.
Yang Anxuan came to watch the championship game. When he saw the young man standing on the boat waving the flag, he said: "Brother Liu, is this Qian Lei who won the title of Fu Shui yesterday?"
"Yes, it's him." Liu Zhong said with a smile on his face: "Yesterday after he captured the leader of Fu Shui, Yu came to him and he was willing to join Yu's command."
Zhou You on the side said angrily: "Yu was watching the martial arts competition in the ring yesterday. He was a little late and allowed you to take the lead. Lieutenant Liu, you have already won Qian Lei. You can no longer compete with Yu in the archery and martial arts competitions."
Liu Zhong laughed and said: "Why, if you have the ability, you can take it."
After being secretly reminded by Yang Anxuan, Liu Zhong has not been idle these days. He is looking for other athletes to build relationships. In fact, Qian Lei was attracted by him after the first game. From now on, he will take the initiative to chat with Qian Lei before every game. Only then did Qian Lei agree to join the army and come under his command.
Zhou You snorted angrily, thinking about the people who had performed outstandingly in the past few days. He couldn't wait for the results to come out, so he would talk to them first.
On December 20, twenty archers who have been screened through layers of competition will compete for the archery championship, including Liu Zhong and Zhou You.
The archery target is placed a hundred steps away. Each person has ten arrows and half a stick of incense for a limited time.
With his feet on the ground, Liu Zhong was full of confidence. He opened his bow and sent ten arrows steadily into the red hole. He glanced proudly at Zhou You beside him.
Zhou You finished shooting eight arrows, and all of them were in the red heart. Liu Zhong looked at him provocatively. He felt anxious, his hand trembled slightly, and the ninth arrow shot out of the red heart.
Liu Zhong laughed proudly. Zhou You stabilized his mood, sent the last arrow into the red heart, and said coldly: "I hope you can still laugh out loud during the water shooting tomorrow."
"Tuk-tuk" kept sounding. Meng Longfu held a three-stone bow, and his arrows penetrated deeply into the target. The last arrow brought the target down with great force, causing the audience around him to exclaim in unison.
Yu Fei controlled the rhythm leisurely, and the ten arrows formed a small circle on the red heart, steady and accurate.
She drew her bow and took a step back, looking at the other arrow targets. There were actually three people who hit red hearts with all ten arrows. It looked like they were all masters.
However, Yu Fei was very confident. Since he was six years old, he had been taking a boat with his father to the reeds on the shore to shoot birds and animals. At the age of thirteen, he could shoot open geese.
When the goose opens its mouth, the goose will be frightened and fly up, and you can shoot an arrow through the goose's mouth. In this way, the fur of the wild goose shot will be intact, and the price will be higher.
Thinking of his father who taught him archery, Yu Fei's eyes darkened. Ten years ago, his father, who was as big as a mountain in his eyes, became ill, and everything he could sell at home was sold out. In the end, he watched his father pass away.
His mother passed away when he was eighteen years old. When his sister got married, Yu Fei felt that he had no worries anymore, so he picked up the bow left by his father and wandered around.
Four years ago, when he passed through Wuhu and met a river bandit, Yu Fei shot the leader of the bandit to death with an arrow. The bandit knelt down and recognized him as their leader.
Yu Fei, who was tired of wandering, stopped to rest, thinking that he would leave soon, but he didn't know that he would stay for four years.
The team of more than a dozen people has grown to more than fifty people, and has also earned the reputation of "Langli Jiao".
Looking at the brothers who had gone through life and death with him, Yu Fei really couldn't say "go".
Zhushuiyan was destroyed, and the imperial court established a river patrol supervisor in Jingkou, and the news suddenly became tense.
Originally, the Chinese New Year was a good time to make a fortune, and the merchant ships on the river were full of oil and water. However, brothers who went to do business encountered official ships patrolling the river every time and did not dare to take action.
As the head of the family, Yu Fei intended to have a fight with Xunjiang Yamen, but many of his brothers disapproved of it.
Zhu Shuiyan's burnt body was left on the dock for several days, and many people saw it with their own eyes. Later, Wu Liang was cut in half and Xu Hong abandoned the market in Yihe Town. The bloody scene was enough to make people shudder.
Yu Fei suggested going to the Jiangling area to avoid the river patrol, but many people were reluctant to part with familiar waters.
When he was hesitating, some minions sent news that the Jiangsu Supervisor was offering a reward to recruit troops. Yu Fei decided to come and find out the news.
When I saw the arrow competition, I was excited for a while, so I shot a few arrows and was chosen. Yu Fei has a casual and peaceful temperament, so he simply participated in the next competition.
The final water shot is scheduled for tomorrow morning. Yu Fei draws up his bow and prepares to go to the competition ring to take a look.
Liu Zhong and Zhou You both walked over with smiles on their faces, and they turned out to be two captains from the Jiangsu Supervisor. Yu Fei was heartbroken. It seemed that there were hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Jiangsu Supervisor. The archery skills of these two men were not inferior to his own.
After exchanging greetings, he explained his purpose of coming and asked Yu Fei to take up a post under his command. Yu Fei laughed secretly. The army invited thieves to join the army. If the two people in front of him knew their identities, I wonder what their expressions would be like.
Pretending to be arrogant, Yu Fei said coldly: "Speak with arrows. Whoever can defeat Yu will be willing to follow Yu."
Meng Longfu handed the bow to Ding Xiaoqi and led him to the ring. He also signed up to participate in the competition. In half an hour it will be his turn.
To talk about liveliness, the competition in the ring is the most lively. Each arena was surrounded by people on three levels inside and three outside, and cheers and cheers erupted from time to time.
Vendors carried baskets and carried baskets, selling fruit snacks, and some vendors set up sheds not far away to sell food.
A gambling house found Xu Jing, and after making some decisions, he asked for a list of opponents. Betting on the opponent's outcome became the biggest interest of the spectators.
After Yang Anxuan learned about it, he let it be. Gambling is human nature and can bring popularity. The number of people who came to watch the game increased sharply in the past two days, and I am afraid that a large number of them came to gamble.
As for whether someone would go bankrupt like he secretly promoted Dai Yan's gambling when he was in the capital, Yang Anxuan couldn't control it. There was no need to carry the fate of others on his shoulders.
There are ten arenas, divided into "A, B, C, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Rengui". Meng Longfu stood in front of the T-shaped platform. On the arena, a burly Hu Han had his fists hanging from the wind, forcing the men he was fighting to run around.
Meng Longfu knew that this Hu Han's name was Shi Meng, a Qin man living in the south of the Yangtze River. He had won twelve consecutive games in the ring and was almost certain to enter the final championship.
This Shi Meng was extremely powerful, cruel and rough, and his strikes were extremely heavy. Meng Longfu saw several men fighting him having their bones broken by his fists.
After a while, the men fighting in the ring realized that they were defeated and jumped off the stage to admit defeat.
Shi Meng put his hands on his hips, looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Han'er, you are like a weak chicken, but you still dare to compete with Master Shi. If you escape quickly, my bones will be torn apart."
Meng Longfu shouted sternly: "Qin Gou, don't be so arrogant. When you meet Master Meng, I will break your bones and muscles."
Shi Meng's fierce eyes widened, he jumped down from the stage with a strange roar and rushed towards Meng Longfu. Meng Longfu sneered and stepped forward to meet him.
Bo Da's fist hit Meng Longfu with a scream, and the people next to him fled to both sides. Meng Longfu met the fist with his fist, and his fists touched each other.
Shi Meng tried his best, thinking of smashing the Han boy away, then stepping forward and breaking his bones to let him know how powerful he was.
Unexpectedly, his fist felt like it was hitting a stone wall, motionless, and then he felt a sharp pain in his finger bones, as if they were broken.
Before Shi Meng could take a step back, Meng Longfu flew up and kicked, stepping on Shi Meng's chest, causing Shi Meng to stagger back.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, Meng Longfu raised his fist and rushed forward, hitting the stone with his chest and abdomen wide open.
His right fist hit Shi Meng hard on the chest. Shi Meng felt his vision turn black and fell backwards, causing dust to fly.
The surrounding audience saw the fierce man throw himself off the stage, saw the two fists collide, and saw the fierce man fall to the ground, and then they breathed out smoothly, and their cheers and applause were like thunder.
Shi Meng has attracted a lot of hatred with his arrogance, arrogance, and cruelty these days. Although many people have made money betting on him, when they saw him lying on the ground, they also cursed bitterly: "I don't care. Even if you pay for it, I’d rather see your kid beaten to death.”
Meng Longfu raised his hands and gestured around with a smile, becoming a hero in the eyes of everyone.
Yang Anxuan stood at a height more than ten feet away, paying attention to the movements in the ring. These days, he was watching the battles everywhere, paying attention to outstanding talents, and this Shi Meng naturally fell into his eyes.
Shi Meng's attacks were fierce, causing injuries and injuries. Yang Anxuan had a vague feeling that this person was here to cause trouble, and he didn't know who was behind it.
He also saw Meng Long Fu's outstanding performance. Meng Long Fu's hands and feet were agile and his moves were exquisite. He could tell that he had been taught by an expert. His archery skills were also outstanding. Among the nearly a thousand people who came to take part in the test, There are three people Yang Anxuan is interested in: Meng Longfu, Qian Lei and Yu Fei. Among the three, Meng Longfu is the most important.
Just now, he saw that Meng Long's talisman was able to defeat the powerful stone, which made Yang Anxuan even more impressed by his bravery. Among such warriors, I am afraid that only Kuai En can compete with him.
The crowd spat at Shi Meng and gradually dispersed. After a while, Shi Meng woke up, climbed up from the ground with difficulty, and staggered out of the arena.
Yang Anxuan whispered to Zhang Feng: "Follow me and see who this kid has been in contact with."
Half an hour later, Meng Longfu stepped onto stage B to compete, and the audience cheered and cheered in unison.
The man who was fighting against him clasped his fists and saluted: "Meng Zhuangshi, I am not the opponent, but I am willing to be defeated. I wish Meng Zhuangshi wins the first place."
He bowed deeply and jumped off the stage. Everyone in the audience burst into cheers.
In the evening, after listening to Zhang Feng's report, Yang Anxuan snorted angrily. Sooner or later, the lingering ghost of the Diao family will be wiped out.
