Chapter 95 Seeing is Believing

Xie Yuan said calmly: "Okay, Sir Wei Chang said, how to compare?"

"The old rule is to let a horse gallop in front of the target, follow the horse and shoot arrows, and when the horse passes the last target, whoever shoots more accurately will win," he said.

Xie Yuan heard this and blinked his eyes and thought for a while. This shouldn't be too difficult, it's just...

"The distance cannot exceed fifty steps. The distance I am good at is very short. If it is far, I need to measure the arc of the arrow's fall. It takes time, and it won't be that fast. I don't know if the guard commander will agree."

After hearing this, the guard commander's eyes became even more disdainful, and he said with a "hum": "I can do whatever you want."

On the other side of the school grounds is a row of targets. And the rebel prisoners were squatting in front of the targets, a dense crowd, there must have been two to three hundred of them.

So the captain ordered that the prisoners be divided into two groups, moved aside, and let the row of arrow targets out, so that they could become the audience of this competition.

Xie Yuan stood in front of the second target on the left, no more than fifty steps away, while the guard captain stood slightly further back, directly in the middle of the ten targets.

Those who watched this competition couldn't help but shake their heads. Xie Yuan seemed to be planning to run behind the horse and shoot, but how could a human's legs compare to that of a horse?

Like the guard captain, you have to stand far away and include all ten targets within your shooting range. Shooting while standing and saving time on movement is the key to victory.

At this time, the guard commander looked at Xie Yuan standing in front and regarded her as a defeated general who was about to make a fool of himself.

To win against a child is a bit overwhelming, and it is obvious that she is not good at it. She needs to be within fifty steps to be accurate when shooting at a target.

However, I just couldn't stand the way he looked like he didn't know what the sky was and how high he was.

The man on horseback was already ready at the starting point on the left. Hearing a whistle, the man patted his horse and rushed towards the other end of the target.

The speed is very fast, as if he is afraid that if he slows down, he will be injured by the arrow.

Xie Yuan and the guard commander simultaneously reached out to draw arrows, plucked the arrows, and aimed. The only difference was that the guard commander was slightly slower than Xie Yuan because he stood far away and his sight was blocked.

But the movement was only a little slower. He looked at the tail of the horse that had brushed against it. One arrow after another was flying at an extremely fast speed. Moreover, because he was holding a hard bow, when the arrows flew out, he could see that they were flying through the air with great force.

, an afterimage hit the bullseye, directly penetrating the target, leaving an arrow tail outside.

But Xie Yuan was faster than him... I saw the young man who had just come off the battlefield, his face covered in black dust and dirt, and the clothes on his body had marks of being burned by fire and scratched by sharp blades.

But he was extremely agile. While chasing the horse, he kept his hands on the horse and shot arrows with almost no pause at all. It was as if he didn't need to aim at all. Each arrow was shot very casually.

Moreover, the speed of his feet was so fast that his footsteps were silent, as if he were stepping on the wind. It was strangely combined with the arrow-shooting movements of his hands, moving like clouds and flowing water.

Everyone had forgotten to pay attention to whether his shot was accurate or not. They only knew that his skill was so handsome that it was a pleasure to watch and they couldn't take their eyes off it.

The guard captain was naturally very good at archery. He could also shoot a string of arrows, and he could even draw a stiff bow and catch up with the speed of a horse running by.

But like Xie Yuan, he runs and shoots at the same time, and his hand speed seems to be faster and more casual than him... He doesn't seem to be able to do it.

So when he shot halfway, his eyes were involuntarily attracted by Xie Yuan's figure. He was stunned for a moment, and the arrow in his hand had slowed down.

Then he watched Xie Yuan run from his left to his right, leaving his own arrows on a row of targets... and they were all above the red bullseye.

Everyone was dumbfounded, including the prisoners squatting on the ground.

After Xie Yuan finished shooting the arrow, he wiped the sweat from his head, looked at the target and took a few steps back. He stood next to the guard commander and looked at the target.

Seeing that the guard captain's arrows, which were obviously much thicker than hers, only hit five, she looked to the side in confusion.

The guard captain was still holding a bow and an arrow in his hand, and was frozen in this posture, with his mouth slightly open, staring at her in shock.

Xie Yuan frowned, raised his head and looked at the captain who was half a shoulder taller than him and said: "Master Wei, why did you stop shooting after only five arrows?... Let me?"

She doesn't need to give in, she is confident enough to win! She doesn't want to be looked down upon in the name of giving in.

The guard commander finally came to his senses at this time. He put down the bow in his hand in embarrassment, turned his head with a red face and looked at the school captains who were watching the battle behind him, and said:

"...I just got distracted."

The captain blinked his eyes. He was really not qualified to say anything about this. Because he was also distracted, staring at Xie Yuan's figure flying to draw the bow the whole time, and didn't pay attention to the process of the game at all...

So he coughed and said, "If you get distracted, you'll get distracted. You don't have to be so serious when you're trying to learn from others."

After hearing this, Xie Yuan pursed his lips, put the bow back on his back, and said nothing more.

She could feel it. After the comparison, at least they didn't look at her like they did just now, as if they were looking at her as a joke.

The captain walked up to her, looked at Xie Yuan's face, and said with a sigh:

"I just heard some of them say that you are very skilled. I only thought that you were a child who was stronger than ordinary children, but I didn't expect that you would be so much stronger. This is really what you hear is believing, and seeing is believing. It turns out that heroes come from youth.

, No wonder you were promoted to captain at such a young age."

Xie Yuan thought to herself that she, the corps commander, was not promoted from above, but was made up of a temporary team by those who broke out. After some fighting, she became the corps commander who made the final decision.

If she was still in the original camp, it would never have been her turn to be the corps commander so soon.

Xie Yuan didn't say anything and just listened to the captain's words. After a while, he saw that he didn't say anything, so he asked again:

"Can we get the credit for our work? When will the supplies be available?"

"Yes... why not? Of course there is." The captain agreed readily this time.

Then, as if he had come to his senses again, he pointed at the prisoners and said:

"These are people who are willing to surrender. They will be distributed to each corps to replenish the troops. You lead the people back to replenish the number. The superiors have given our battalion a month to repair. It is unlikely that there will be a war in the near future. In this way, you will still be in your corps from now on.

Captain, but you also need to teach archers."

Xie Yuangang was about to retort, so he heard him say: "I can teach as much as I can, and the rest is up to them, I won't force you... But if you teach well, I will still ask you for credit, and maybe you can become a general one day early."

."

This sentence really blocked Xie Yuan's mouth, and Xie Yuan said nothing more.

"Go! Everyone has been identified, right? Take them back." The captain pointed to a group of people next to the group of prisoners and urged her.

Xie Yuan turned his head and took a look, bowed to the captain and said, "I'm resigning." He turned around and walked away neatly.
