"How is it? Prince, can you see clearly?" Huang Zhong asked with a smile.
Liu Chan didn't have much confidence in his heart, but his eyesight and memory were astonishing. He had clearly recorded every move Huang Zhong made just now, and said: "Although I have seen it clearly, I don't know whether it is possible. Let's try it alone. Please ask the old general Guidance.”
Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment. He just wanted to give Liu Chan the essentials of movement, finger movement, and force exertion skills before leaving today. It would be impossible to master these three arrows overnight.
Unexpectedly, Liu Chan would have to operate it directly, but the prince said so, so Huang Zhong handed over the bow.
"Although this is not an amazing skill, I have practiced it for more than three months and still haven't mastered it. Prince, there is no need to be upset if you fail to master it for a while."
Huang Zhong felt that the prince was a natural archer because of his long arms, strong strength and good understanding.
He was afraid that Liu Chan's confidence would be affected if he suffered a setback, so he said this deliberately.
Huang Zhong originally practiced this three-arrow chain, and it took him more than thirty days to shoot three arrows consecutively.
Moreover, the accuracy dropped drastically at the beginning, the power was not as good as ordinary shooting, and it was still very unsmooth.
The old general took into account that the prince had not put much thought into archery before, so he deliberately tripled the time he spent on it.
Liu Chan imitated Huang Zhongcai's every move, until he shot the first arrow, it was a perfect copy.
However, after shooting the first arrow, when he picked up the second arrow to catch it, his unfamiliar finger movements caused him to use too much force and the arrow fell to the ground.
I have memorized and understood it, but there is still a gap between being able to do it right away.
Huang Zhong was about to speak out to comfort him, but Liu Chan had already picked up the arrow and silently summarized the mistake just now and Huang Zhong's approach, looking very focused.
The veteran didn't say anything when he saw this, but he admired Liu Chan's serious attitude that was neither impatient nor impatient.
[Huang Zhong favorability +2] (57)
The second time, Liu Chan successfully shot the second arrow in succession.
The most difficult thing about shooting three arrows in a row is the connection between the first and second arrows. As long as the second arrow is fired, the last arrow is no different from shooting with an ordinary bow.
However, his version of the three-arrow volley is much slower than Huang Zhong's. With his three-arrow skill, the enemy can usually shoot two arrows.
One arrow missed the target, and the other two hit by chance. His mind was focused on the movements of his fingers, and he didn't care about his accuracy at all.
But this was enough to surprise Huang Zhong on the side. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Liu Chan close his eyes for a moment and then take out three more arrows.
Whoosh whoosh!
This time, the three arrows in a row were considered qualified in terms of connection alone. The movements were much smoother than before, and the speed was also increased.
However, this time two arrows missed the target and one hit randomly, but it was not as powerful as Huang Zhong's arrow.
"It seems that if you want to be like General Huang, you need to practice more in the future." Liu Chan handed the bow back and said humbly, "With what I can do now, that's all."
But Huang Zhong had gone from being surprised to being frightened: "Is that all? It took more than thirty days for the veteran to achieve something, but the prince can achieve it after practicing for three times. He is really a prodigy in shooting..."
"Didn't you just say more than three months?" Liu Chan said with a smile.
"Uh..." Huang Zhong hesitated, and then the two looked at each other and smiled.
In fact, this is not the case. The reason why Liu Chan can achieve such exaggerated effects is that he cannot do it only by relying on his "excellent" shooting talent.
It also depends on the memory brought by the upgraded physique and the fine control of body strength and movements, so that I can get started so quickly.
But once you get started and want to continue improving, you won’t be as aggressive as you were at the beginning.
But Liu Chan is also very satisfied. This level is enough. After all, he still has the talent of [a hundred arrows are sure to hit]. It is not too fun to pair it with a chain of arrows...
"Thank you, old general, for teaching me your unique skills. I will definitely visit you again when I come back from Hanzhong."
"The prince's words are serious. Perhaps my health will be better by then, so it's time to come and pay my respects to the prince. Hahaha... cough cough."
…
After bidding farewell to Huang Zhong, the next morning, the Red Star Army, which was already ready to go, officially set off!
Two thousand Red Star troops continued to march in the old-to-the-new way, escorting a large number of Yinhu north to Hanzhong.
Marching northeast from Chengdu, we passed through Mianzhu and came out of Jiange.
Veterans of this route still remember that the shadow houses here are also familiar. Only Chai Rong and other Jiangdong recruits have not passed through.
Along the way, the recruits must get used to staying vigilant during the march and always being ready to obey orders from their superior generals.
The generals at the grassroots level must pay attention to the semaphores of the command flags, beating drums and gold medals, as well as the formation of the troops under their command, the status of the soldiers, etc.
Apart from these, Liu Chan will still train them in accordance with wartime standards to set up camp, eat, drink and sleep in an orderly manner, respond to ambushes, and prepare plans when the camp is attacked by enemy forces...
Of course, these trainings are now all done by Li Er and others.
"Sigh... At first I complained that I was quite strong, so why couldn't I be selected as a soldier?" A bearded man sighed, "Now I understand, the prince is not recruiting soldiers, this is what his mother did. They are all tigers and wolves, and they must be obedient tigers and wolves.”
"Okay, don't say anything. At least I was brushed off at the horse riding level. I was born with eye problems and I didn't even go to the doctor level before I went out..."
The unsuccessful tenants looked at the Red Star Army soldiers and thought about the treatment. It would be a lie to say they were not envious.
However, after seeing the appearance of the Red Star Army today, especially the regular soldiers with murderous intent, they were convinced from the bottom of their hearts.
Moreover, my family will soon regain land, and there will be preferential tax reduction policies, so there is still hope for life.
Although they had to leave their hometown, they were different from the people of Jiangling at that time. Their status had returned to self-cultivating farmers. Their land and future home were waiting in Hanzhong, so they did not have much resentment about the migration.
The basic training of the Red Star Army can be completed independently.
The only thing Liu Chan needs to do now is the "class" time before the daily break.
Nowadays, this "class" has also been divided into echelons. Most veterans have learned a lot about literacy and can teach it down the levels.
Liu Chan personally taught the Red Star Army General School, which has changed from the most basic literacy to military and ideological education.
"We, the Red Star Army, can surround and annihilate those with weak troops. I believe that those with similar strength can also defeat them with a strong fight." Liu Chan sat on the ground with them and asked with a smile: "But if the enemy's army is strong, we must not defeat it with force." Enemy, what should I do?"
Li Er thought for a while and said: "Take shelter from the attack for now and wait for the opportunity."
Ding Feng nodded and added: "Maybe we can do what the prince did in Jingzhou, luring him to divide his troops and then attack them separately."
Chai Rong said: "If I can give preferential treatment to the local poor people in advance and make the poor people my eyesight, then the enemy will be like a worm in front of the lamp to me, and I will be like a ghost in the dark to the enemy."
Hu Lidao: "You can also use mountains, valleys, rivers, dense forests and other terrain to set up ambush for the enemy!"
Liu Chan looked at Qian Duo again. He subconsciously wanted to cover his butt, and then remembered that he was sitting down. Then he smiled awkwardly and said, "I have nothing more to say. Just do what they said and kill him."
Everyone burst into laughter, but Liu Chan was not angry this time. People always have their own things that they are good at and not good at.
If everyone cannot be allowed to bring out their best strengths and must be allowed to do things they are not good at, it only means that the general is incompetent.
Liu Chan nodded happily, but at this moment he turned to look at the unfamiliar face beside him.
This person is also a new face to the Red Star Army. He is Guan Yu's second son, Guan Xing and Guan Anguo.
"An Guo, what do you think?"
Guan Xing is different from Guan Ping and Yin Ping. He has always been studious and polite, and he looks more like a Confucian general.
Liu Chan really didn't want to cause trouble during this trip, so he brought out the enthusiastic Guan Xing.
Guan Xing heard the words and cupped his hands and said: "What you all said is reasonable. You should also look at who the commander is. If he is angry, he can provoke him, if he is young, he can trick him, if he is arrogant, he can deceive him... because he is the leader and can assist him with strategies. , you can get twice the result with half the effort.”
Liu Chan smiled and was very pleased. Guan Xing had been educated since he was a child, so this answer was not surprising.
Ding Feng himself knew how capable he would be in the future.
But other people were originally small people, but now many of these small people have something to say.
This is what makes him most gratified. The work he persisted in has not been in vain.
However, although they talked a lot, Liu Chan also had his own opinions on this issue.
