Not only Zhao Yun, but also Liu Zhang had a look of astonishment on his face!
Huang Zhong ignored everyone's surprise and still looked at Zhao Yun solemnly.
"The requirements for archers are very high. They need strong physical fitness and a certain talent for archery!"
"Not only that, but after three years of training, this hundred-man archery formation has the ability to shoot ten rounds!"
Liu Zhang was a little shocked. He didn't expect that Huang Zhong, a hundred people, had put in so much effort!
Thinking of the elite archers who had sacrificed their lives because of him, Liu Zhang suddenly felt deep self-blame.
"Han Sheng, I..."
Huang Zhong interrupted Liu Zhang and did not let him continue.
"My Lord, there is no need to say more. They died for the Lord, and they deserved their death!"
Liu Zhang lowered his head and kept shaking his head and sighing, apologies written on his face.
Zhao Yun didn't know much about these past events, so he continued to ask Huang Zhong without asking too much.
"Brother Han Sheng, are you saying that it is very difficult to recruit these mounted and archery soldiers?"
Huang Zhong nodded, then shook his head.
"Yes, but not entirely!"
"A mounted archer soldier requires not only superb riding skills, but also the quality and talent of an archer!"
"Each of these two skills is very difficult, let alone both!"
Zhao Yun was not frightened by Huang Zhong, but instead strengthened his belief.
"As long as it's not completely impossible, I'm confident!"
"good!"
"Then if the foreigners can do it, how can we, the great Chinese people, not be as good as those barbarians?"
Liu Zhang was also ignited by Zhao Yun's momentum. He needed people like this, who knew that there were thorns ahead but dared to face them!
Huang Zhong still wanted to speak, but seeing how interested Liu Zhang was, he didn't have the nerve to add to the conversation.
"Lord..."
Tai Shici spoke up. He saw that Huang Zhong was hesitant to speak, so he chose to be a villain for once.
"What's the matter with Ziyi?"
"Lord, I don't understand what Brother Han Sheng said, but there is one difficulty I know."
"I don't know much about riding and archery, but I have some experience in riding and archery."
Zhao Yun's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked Tai Shici for advice.
"Brother Ziyi, please don't hesitate to teach me!"
Taishi Ci smiled at Zhao Yun and shook his head.
"You don't have to be polite, Zilong. The biggest problem in mounted shooting is accuracy!"
"Although my archery skills are far inferior to those of Brother Han Sheng, they are still far behind! I am not bragging, my lord should know better."
Liu Zhang nodded and praised.
"Ziyi, you can shoot a three-stone strong bow and shoot through the poplars with a hundred steps! Isn't it too modest to wait for it to be so difficult? In my opinion, there are very few people in the world who are as skilled in archery as you!"
Taishi Ci smiled and did not refute. He was so confident in his archery skills that he even felt that Huang Zhong was the only one in the world who was better than him!
"My lord, do you know if I shoot an arrow while riding a horse, how many steps can I take to pierce the Yang?"
"Fifty steps?"
Taishi Ci shook his head.
"Forty steps?"
"Thirty steps?"
Liu Zhang became more and more frightened, and even felt that he had said too little!
Taishi Ci stretched out a finger with an extremely serious expression.
"Not even one step!"
"this...?"
Liu Zhang looked at Tai Shici in disbelief, and Huang Zhong's even more shocking words came to his ears.
"Ziyi is not exaggerating. When riding, my accuracy will also drop significantly. The accuracy can only maintain the target range of one step."
After Huang Zhong said this, everyone fell silent.
In terms of archery, there is probably nothing in the world that can do anything that even he can't do!
Especially Liu Zhang was completely shocked.
In his opinion, riding and shooting is difficult, but it shouldn't be that difficult, right?
"Han Sheng, if there is a fighting general in front of the battle, if you get back on your horse and shoot an arrow, can you kill him with one blow?"
Liu Zhang did not give up and thought of the scene in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" when Huang Zhong shot Guan Yu.
"Lord, if you hurt the opponent, you may be somewhat sure. But if you want to kill him with one blow..."
“It all depends on God’s will!”
Liu Zhang sat down a little decadently. If he trained a cavalry archery unit, but failed to hit the opponent during the attack, wouldn't it make people laugh?
"Lord!"
Jia Xu's voice awakened Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang looked at him expectantly, hoping that Jia Xu would have a clever plan.
"My lord, do you know why it has been hundreds of years since the Warring States Period and there are no cavalry and archery teams?"
"I don't know."
"Because most of the cavalry and archery soldiers come from foreign races!"
"The same is true for King Zhao Wuling. He is surrounded by foreigners, so he has the opportunity to develop mounted archery!"
Liu Zhang really didn't expect this. He thought he could do what King Zhao Wuling could do.
"Lord, don't worry. It's not that you have no clue about riding and shooting, it's just that it's really difficult now!"
Zhao Yun's eyes lit up, Jia Xu must have a solution for what he said.
"Commander Jia, for the sake of my lord's great cause, please give me advice!"
"General Zilong, you're welcome!"
"Generals, there is actually a misunderstanding!"
Huang Zhong and Tai Shici frowned and looked at Jia Xu with puzzled faces.
"What misunderstanding?"
Jia Xu smiled slightly, stood up, and imitated the process of shooting an arrow into the sky.
"Projection!"
Liu Zhang exclaimed and looked at Jia Xu in disbelief.
“Isn’t the projectile less accurate?”
"Yes, but what if there are tens of thousands of cavalry throwing them? The bows and arrows will fall like heavy rain!"
Jia Xu suddenly formed a circle with his hands, and then expanded them to the maximum.
"Xianbei, why are the Huns' cavalry and archery so powerful? It's because of their huge numbers!"
"The ultimate tactical purpose of mounted archery is to intimidate, hold back, and consume the enemy. It is never to end the enemy!"
Liu Zhang nodded understandingly, but he didn't expect that on the first day of recruiting Jia Xu, he would teach himself a lesson.
"What Wen He said is that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes!"
"oh?"
Jia Xu looked at Liu Zhang in surprise. This sentence made him feel very novel.
"My lord, your literary talents are indeed well-deserved!"
Liu Zhang waved his hand quickly. He didn't mean to show off, he just blurted it out.
"Wen He, stop making fun of me, I'm showing off my shame today!"
"My lord, there is no need to belittle yourself. The fact that you came up with this idea proves your talent!"
Jia Xu was indeed an old fox and did not embarrass Liu Zhang at all.
Liu Zhang smiled and nodded to Jia Xu, and then the two looked at each other and laughed.
"Zilong, my lord and I have said so much, do you understand?"
Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhao Yun, which immediately made Zhao Yun's nerves tense.
Zhao Yun's face turned red, he looked around, and unconsciously scratched his head with his hands.
"Military advisor, I still don't quite understand..."
