Chapter 86 Riding and Archery Competition (Part 2)
The second person to appear was Duan Sanniang. She ran extremely fast. Amidst the intensive drum beats, she shot three arrows in a row and crossed the finish line before the drum beat ended. Her results were not bad, with two eight points.
One is seven points, and the total score is twenty-three points.
But Duan Sanniang looked a little frustrated, and she was obviously not satisfied with her results. Guo Song also knew what her problem was. Her horse ran too fast. If she controlled the speed, her third arrow would not be shot so hastily.
The third player to play was Zhao Wuchu, the second player from Zhaojiabao. He was not very strong. He scored two sixes and one arrow off the target, for a total score of 12 points.
Liang Wu came on stage. He was worthy of being the number one archer among the Liang family. He had a good grasp of the rhythm. He shot three arrows at a constant speed within 150 steps. One arrow scored nine points. This hit the lower jaw. Two arrows scored eight points.
They were both shot in the neck, with a total score of twenty-five, which was a high score. There was a burst of applause from all around.
The warriors played like water, and Liang Juer played relatively steadily, with two seven-pointers and one eight-pointer, for a total of 22 points.
The ninth person to take the stage was Guo Chongqing. He galloped on his horse, shot an arrow from his left and right bows, two nine points, and there was a round of applause.
The third arrow was still nine points. At this time, he was still thirty steps away from the finish line. He saw a pigeon flying up. Guo Chongqing opened his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot out. The arrow hit the pigeon's wing, but the pigeon did not.
It fell down and flew away crookedly, and there was a sigh of regret from all around.
Although he did not hit the pigeon, Guo Chongqing still scored a high score of 30 points and currently ranks first.
The tenth player was Lin Yang, the third archer of the Lin family. Perhaps Guo Chongqing's outstanding performance put tremendous pressure on him. He was obviously very nervous and his performance was a bit poor. One seven-pointer and two six-pointers.
The total score is only nineteen points.
Lin Yang's poor performance cost him at least five points, which increased the pressure on the Lin family and gave the Liang family and Guo family a chance.
The fourteenth player was Guo Jiang, the second archer of the Guo family. His performance was a bit unsatisfactory. Like Liang Juer, he scored two seven points and one eight points, for a total score of twenty-two.
The Guo family's total score came out first. Guo Qiang was the eighth player and scored 21 points. Adding Guo Chongqing's 30 points, the Guo family's total score was 73 points.
The total score of Liang Wu and Liang Ju'er is 47 points. If we take into account that the Guo family is still three points ahead of the Bu Gong family, then as long as Guo Song scores more than 29 points, the Liang family will be firmly in second place.
The sixteenth person to appear was Li Ji, a foreign aid from the Lin family. He was the first archer in the Shuofang Army, but his performance was abnormal in the last term and he only scored 28 points. He galloped on his horse, firing his bow from left to right, and fired the first arrow.
He shot the target in the neck, but the second arrow hit the left shoulder of the target. There were boos all around. The two arrows added up to only fourteen points.
Liang Wu whispered to Guo Song: "He has an injury on his left shoulder. In fact, he cannot shoot left and right. He must be under too much pressure."
Guo Song secretly nodded. Lin Tai had an injury on his leg, and Lin Yang was not performing well. All the pressure was on Li Ji. He should have made a temporary decision to shoot left and right. This shows that this person has a strong sense of responsibility and is a responsible person.
man of.
At this time, Li Ji shot his third arrow, hitting his face at nine points. Just when he was about to exit the line, he shot another arrow with his backhand. A pigeon that had just fluttered its wings was hit by his arrow and fell from the sky.
There was a sound of exclamation all around. Both bonus points were obtained, and the total score was actually thirty-one points, jumping to first place.
Guo Song understood Li Ji's tactics. If he didn't shoot left and right, he would score nine points with three arrows normally, plus five extra points for shooting down flying pigeons, his score would be only thirty-two points at most.
But if he only performs a little better with his left and right bows, for example, if he can score two eight points, his score will be thirty-three points.
In the final battle, the difference between victory and defeat is often just one point.
So Li Ji wanted to take a risk, but the risk failed.
"The seventeenth appearance, Guo Song!" the judge shouted.
Guo Song urged his horse forward and stood on the starting line. Duan Xiushi, who was sitting in the stands, immediately sat up straight. He had heard a report from the soldiers the day before yesterday that Guo Song's riding and shooting skills were extremely high. He wanted to see with his own eyes that this man was riding a horse.
How high is the ejaculation?
Intense drumbeats suddenly sounded, and Guo Song's war horses ran out like arrows. Most people held the bow with their left hand, but he held the bow with his right hand. Everyone was suddenly excited. This was the rhythm of shooting the bow from left to right.
Guo Song took out an arrow from the quiver on his back. As the horse was galloping, he controlled the horse with his legs, straightened his waist, stretched his bow, and shot an arrow. The arrow was as fast as lightning and hit the right head a hundred paces away.
The first target's eyebrow.
There was silence all around. Everyone held their breath and waited expectantly for Guo Song's second arrow. At this time, Guo Song changed his left hand to hold the bow, took out another arrow, pulled it to a full moon, and shot it. The arrow was strong and he shot again.
The second wooden figure on the left was hit between the eyebrows. Both arrows hit the eyebrows. This was beginning to look like it was perfect.
Perfection means three ten points. All three arrows must hit the same position on the head. There must be no difference. If two arrows hit the center of the eyebrow and the third arrow hits the left eye, it is not called perfect. It can only be three points.
Nine points.
Guo Song had already reached seventy steps. His third arrow shot out and hit the third wooden figure on the left between the eyebrows. The three arrows were the same and perfect. With the extra points for shooting left and right, he had already obtained thirty-three points.
He still has eighty steps to go, can he hit another flying object?
At this time, Guo Song suddenly whistled, and a goshawk roared from the sky. A dozen pigeons in the distance jumped into the sky in fright, and one of them was caught by the fierce man and flew away.
Everyone in the stands stood up and didn't know what was going on.
I saw Guo Song shooting five arrows in a row, and five pigeons fell from the sky. He crossed the finish line amidst the sound of drums.
There was no applause and everyone was stunned. What is this? They even called the goshawk to help.
Several referees discussed urgently. Some referees believed that Guo Song broke the rules and the last shot of flying objects could not be counted. However, some referees believed that Guo Song's last few arrows actually shot 150 steps, which was far beyond the standard, and no points were awarded.
That's so unreasonable.
Everyone was arguing. At this time, Duan Xiushi came over and said with a smile: "Let me say a few words!"
Everyone stopped arguing and waited for the final judgment of the Jiedushi. Duan Xiushi said slowly: "Actually, the responsibility lies with us. We only threw a pigeon into the sky and did not consider that others still had room to perform, so Guo Song created opportunities for himself.
,How can we turn a blind eye to such an excellent mounted archer?"
Duan Xiushi’s attitude was clear, but the judges could only give five points at most, which was the highest bonus point, unless the rules were changed.
Thirty-eight points!
It turned out to be a perfect score, and there was an uproar around it. Such a high score has never appeared in Lingzhou. Not to mention the folk riding and shooting competition, even the internal competition of Shuofang Army, the highest in the past ten years was only 35 points. Li Ji was not injured the year before last
Previously, he had not been able to score a perfect three-pointer.
Even Li Ji was shocked and impressed. If the rules were changed, Guo Song would probably lose 50 points.
Guo Song shot five pigeons in a row, four of which were 140 steps away, and he shot down the pigeons while they were flying. He had never seen such a superb archery technique.
But the most excited person is Liang Huihe. Now that the Liang family has firmly won the first place in the riding and shooting rankings, will the Liang family take the first place in both rankings this time?
The current total score of the Lin family is fifty points, and Lin Tai has not yet played, while the Liang family has already scored eighty-five points. Although the Liang family is seven points behind the Lin family in the foot and bow game, as long as Lin Tai does not exceed twenty-eight points, then the third
One of them is the Liang family.
Normally, Lin Tai would have easily scored 28 points, but he was injured this time!
Riding and shooting all rely on your legs to control the horse. His injury was on his thigh. How could it not have any impact? And the impact was huge.
The leg injury did have a greater impact on Lin Tai. He originally used one stone and five bows, but because he couldn't use too much force, he has switched to one stone bow.
Lin Tai was on his 20th appearance. He took the lead and used the left and right bows that he was best at. Although his injury did not allow him to use the left and right bows anymore, he had to show it, otherwise his highest score would only be 27 points and the shot would fly away.
Objects are not his strong point, not to mention that he is still injured.
Both arrows hit the neck, but unfortunately they were not in the same place. He scored two eight points, and with the bonus points, he got nineteen points. However, the wound on Lin Tai's thigh burst open and blood gushed out.
Lin Tai gritted his teeth and ran quickly. When he was close to the finish line, he tried his best to shoot the last arrow. The arrow hit the wooden man's cheek nine points. His vision went dark and he fell off his horse. The horse had just crossed the finish line.
The children of the Lin family immediately became excited. Lin Tai scored twenty-eight points, with a total score of seventy-eight points. Adding in the seven points they had previously led in the bow, they and the Liang family got the same score.
The Liang family and the Lin family tied for first place in the martial arts association.
This horse-riding and archery competition was extremely dramatic. Guo Song took the lead with a strong and domineering score of 38 points, winning the first place in the martial arts competition for the Liang family.
Moreover, the Lin family performed tragically. With the tenacious resistance of the two wounded soldiers, they finally performed well, showing the strong foundation of the Lin family and retaining the first place.
In addition, the Liang family also won the first place in the riding and shooting rankings as a team and as an individual with a high score of 85 points.
Today the Liang family shines brightly, winning three first places in a row.
Guo Song received a generous reward of one hundred taels of gold and a sword.
