Chapter 527: How many bows can be used at most (Chapter 3)
Shushu took a breath and took out an arrow from the quiver.
She moved her feet, took a step forward, turned sideways, and looked directly at the target in front of her.
Everyone looked over.
Only this first action is different from Fourteenth Prince and Shi Fujin.
And the bow in her hand is also different.
Shu Shu's bow is shorter, not a clear bow or a bright bow.
She stood up straight instead of leaning forward like Fourteenth Brother and Shi Fujin.
The arms are also raised high, and the bow and arrow are level with the eyebrows.
"Whoosh!"
The feather arrow flew out from Gong Xianxuan and landed heavily on the bull's eye, causing the target stake to tremble slightly with the remaining force.
Next, there is the second and third branch, which also hit the bullseye.
The three arrows are gathered together like the word "pin".
Her speed is not as fast as Shi Fujin's, but she is equally capable and more accurate.
"good!"
Kangxi couldn't help but cheer again.
Others looked at Shu Shu with a bit of surprise.
When it comes to the ladies of the Eight Banners, being able to ride and shoot is nothing, but being able to shoot and shooting well are two different things.
Many people went to see Ninth Brother.
The corners of Brother Jiu's mouth almost reached his ears, and he raised his eyebrows at everyone, his face full of pride.
He doesn't have to worry about the performance in a few days. He will tell himself when the time comes.
Since I can't compare with my wife, I just draw the bow and shoot arrows.
Ha ha ha ha!
Kangxi glanced at Shu Shu's bow and said: "Why haven't you practiced Qing Bow? This is not Ming Xiaoshao. What kind of bow is it?"
Shu Shu pressed her tongue against her upper teeth and gritted her teeth, holding back her breath. She suppressed a slight blush on her face, showing a bit of embarrassment, before she lowered her head and said: "My daughter-in-law learned bowing when she was six years old. She was very delicate at the time and disliked the incorrect bowing posture, so she changed to a small one."
He practiced bowing, but he felt that the strength was not enough, so Ama blended the two bows into one and asked someone to make this medium-sized children's bow that was slightly longer than the small-sized bow. Later, when it became larger, he made this five-force bow."
This is not a lie, but it does not mention that Qi Xi made the transformation under her unconstrained command. At that time, Qi Xi even praised his precious daughter for this.
At that time, Shu Shu had no memory of her previous life, and she really thought that she was a little genius, so beautiful.
When I have the memory of my previous life, I am speechless when I look at this bow again.
In fact, there are four similarities, and there are also some shadows of Japanese bows and Hungarian bows in it.
Because at that time, Qi Xi was only a deputy commander and had not been promoted to deputy commander, let alone commander, so these old things were not known to the emperor.
Kangxi became interested and ordered Liang Jiugong: "Send it up!"
Liang Jiugong bowed in response, took the bow from Shu Shu, and handed it to Kangxi with both hands.
Kangxi took the bow and looked at it carefully. It was slightly between Ming Gong and Qing Gong. No wonder it was called "Zhongshao Gong".
He was a little moved and walked towards where Shu Shu was just now.
Seeing that the ninth elder brother was still not moving, the tenth elder brother hurriedly pushed and pointed at the quiver in Xiaosong's hand.
Brother Nine reacted, took the quiver from Xiaosong's hand, walked to Kangxi, and said: "Khan Ama, would you like to try the bow?"
Kangxi slightly chinned his head and pulled out an arrow from his quiver.
When he got it in his hands, he noticed the difference.
The length of this arrow seems to be similar to that of Ming Xiaoshao's arrows, about two feet, but the weight is not Ming Xiaoshao's one or two cents, but double the weight, which is almost the same as the weight of Qing bows and arrows.
But the Qing bow and arrow were three feet long.
This arrow is not short and thick, it should be made of iron and wood.
The target has been cleared.
A five-power bow was nothing to Kangxi.
He followed Shu Shu's previous posture and shot an arrow. Naturally, the force was stronger than Shu Shu's just now, and even the inch-long arrow did not hit the target.
Kangxi lowered his bow, feeling quite moved, but his expression did not show it.
He couldn't help but scold Qi Xi in his heart for being unmotivated and unable to see the benefits of this improved bow.
Is it really just a gadget to entertain children?
Nothing is exposed.
If it had been submitted to the Ministry of War earlier, it would have been a credit.
Why did the Eight Banners' cavalry and archery become useless?
That's because life has become more comfortable, and the soldiers and civilians of the Eight Banners are hard-core farmers who can't bear hardships.
It's hard to get a clear bow, and you won't be able to pick it up if you don't practice it properly.
And because of the power of the bow, the physical requirements for the shooter are also high and they need to be strong.
This Zhongshao Gong avoids the shortcomings of Xiaoshao Gong and Qing Gong and combines the strengths of both.
Weapons were of great importance, so Kangxi made a mental note.
After trying an arrow, he handed the bow to Liang Jiugong, returned to his original position, and signaled Shu Shu and the others to continue.
It's already the second round, it's time for the fourteenth brother.
Brother Fourteen was already severely hit by the results in the first round and felt restless. In addition, the improved bow in Shu Shu's hands made him unable to concentrate.
Even Khan Ama thought that a good bow must be extraordinary, so he almost borrowed it just now!
Three arrows came down, but only one was on the target, one was hanging on the side of the target, and the other missed the target and fell to the ground.
On the other hand, Shi Fujin’s results in the second round were almost the same as those in the first round.
When they arrived at Shu Shu's place, Liang Jiugong was about to present the bow when he heard Kangxi ask, "I remember that your Ama can fire a ten-power bow. What is the maximum power you can fire?"
This was asked to Shu Shu.
Shu Shu glanced at Brother Jiu, hesitated, and said truthfully: "Ten powers can control strings..."
The field fell silent for a moment.
The smile on Brother Jiu's face solidified.
Even Brother Ten, who was familiar with the couple, was in disbelief.
Although I had known for a long time that Shu Shu’s archery skills were not low, and I had seen her draw a bow and shoot during the Northern Patrol, I never expected that she would have this kind of bow power!
The fifth elder brother was directly surprised and looked at the ninth elder brother, feeling worried in his heart.
How much strength does it take to wield a ten-power bow?
There's no time for a young couple to quarrel, right?!
Looking back, he had to tell Lao Jiu to be soft-spoken on weekdays and not to push a good-tempered person into a hurry.
The third elder brother was as dumbfounded as a chicken, already having wild thoughts.
This shouldn't be a lie, this is the imperial court, only fools would deceive the emperor.
I really don't see Jiu Fujin being so capable and strong on ordinary days.
What about my own Fujin?
Also from the Dong E family?!
Kangxi's eyes slid over Shu Shu's wrist and looked to the side.
Because the Holy Master arrived, a dozen guards who had been performing on the other side of the school grounds came over.
Kangxi nodded to one of them and said, "I remember you are a Shili Gong?"
The man bowed and said, "Yes, last year, I accompanied the Hu's northern patrol and went on a siege with the Emperor. I shot a black bear and two wild boars!"
Kangxi nodded and said: "Jiu Fujin is practicing archery. Let me lend you your bow."
The guard responded and immediately offered his hands.
Brother Jiu had already moved, walked over boldly and proudly, and took the bow from the guard.
Shu Shu also moved and stretched out his right arm to Xiao Song who was standing next to him.
Master and servant have a tacit understanding for a long time.
Xiaosong stepped forward, took off the weight on Shu Shu's wrist, and threw it on the ground.
The weight-bearing bag is not big, and the weight cannot be measured visually, but the "clicking" movement shows that it is not light.
Then the weight was put on the left hand and the weight was put on both feet, and they were all released.
The fourteenth elder brother couldn't hold it any longer. He took one from Komatsu and said in surprise, "What's the matter with this? It's so heavy."
Xiaosong smiled and said, "Gold, this is the heaviest!"
So bold!
Brother Fourteen said nothing for a while.
Sister-in-law Jiu is really rich!
It's actually a misunderstanding.
Shu Shu's weight-bearing bag used to be lead, but because she was going out this time, she changed it to gold, hoping to kill two birds with one stone and take up less space.
The fourteenth elder brother looked at Shu Shu, his eyes full of admiration.
Not just gold, but also this power,
The weight of this one is about ten kilograms, and four of them are forty kilograms!
Why are you wearing this?!
If you were to hit someone, your ribs would be broken with one punch?!
Shu Shu has already received the Ten Power Bow from Brother Jiu.
Brother Jiu turned his back to everyone and gritted his teeth at Shu Shu.
Shu Shu's expression didn't change. In front of everyone, you can't coax people at this time, right?
She has pretended to this point, she can't break her skills!
She looked away from Brother Nine and looked at the long bow in her hand.
Is this Qing Gong?!
Let her stick her butt out in front of everyone?
Kill her!
She complained endlessly, but still chose to stand upright.
In fact, the action of clearing the bow is not static.
The current posture is actually based on the riding and shooting posture, with the movement of raising the buttocks.
She looked at her rhino horn and raised her bow.
Qing Gong is nearly five feet tall, only a fist short of her height.
It's impossible to have a full eyebrow shot.
She adjusted the position of her arms.
After ten years of practicing bow and arrow, she had also used a longbow. Otherwise, she would have shown her timidity at this moment.
"Whoosh!"
The three-foot long, finger-thick feather arrow flew out, like a spear, and hit the bullseye heavily.
The guards who were watching were agitated.
If the Holy Spirit hadn't been here, everyone would have cheered in unison.
Because the Qing bow has heavy arrows, it cannot be used for long-distance shooting, and the accuracy of long-distance shooting is not good.
You must know that the riding and shooting distance of the Qing Dynasty martial arts examination was only thirty-five steps, and three out of nine was considered a pass.
Then the step shot in the second game will be eighty steps as in the current game, and two out of nine will be considered a pass.
Jiufujin's bow power and accuracy are unparalleled even in the guard camp.
Shu Shu didn't stop and shot a second arrow, which was right next to the previous one.
After the third arrow, her arm sank down, and the arrow landed slightly below the target. It would miss the target within two inches.
This is three shots and three hits!
Ten force bow!
The scene became quiet.
Brother Fourteen handed the weight in his hand to Xiaosong, came over curiously, and said: "Sister-in-law Ninth, Sister-in-law Ninth, let me try..."
At his age, it would be a dream to control the string of a ten-power bow, but he would just try to pull a strong bow.
Shu Shu naturally had no objection and handed him the bow in his hand.
The fourteenth elder brother made a gesture to draw the bow, but he could only draw it halfway, and there was still a long way to go before the full bow was reached.
The fourteenth elder brother was distracted and relieved, and allowed the ninth elder brother to take the bow away.
Brother Jiu returned the bow to the guard, only to find that the first-class guard looked familiar.
It seems to be the Tong family.
He looked at the other guards, they were either members of the clan, or they were noble sons of the Three Banners.
The drills in the guard camp are more orderly than those in the Eight Banners camp, so they are quite good at it.
Shi Fujin's eyes were glued to Shu Shu's body, and he praised Brother Ten: "Sister-in-law Jiu is so awesome. If we go to the Naadam Conference on the grassland, she can win several horses, not to mention sheep..."
