Chapter 1067: Recruiting Relatives in a Contest (10)
Lu Jinyi said slowly, "In terms of the venue, it is the same for all the people who participate in the competition, and the horses, everyone is also their own horses that they ride, and there is nothing special about it."
But the Khitan soldiers who threw the target bag, I think now that they must have done something tricky.
Brother Ren, you are in the stands, because of the distance and the angle of view, you may not be able to see clearly the movements of those Khitan soldiers throwing target bags, as well as the trajectory of the target bags flying in the air.
Even I, the person who participated in the competition, didn't notice anything wrong at first, but after being reminded by my brother now, I suddenly found that the height of the target bag they threw was different.
In the first round, when only one target bag is thrown, the height of the target bag is slightly different, which is understandable, everyone's strength is different, and it is not unusual for the target bag to be thrown high and low, and it will not have a great impact on the shooting target bag.
However, in the second round, when three target bags were thrown at the same time, the strength of the target bags was different, which was more obvious, and the impact on the shooting was relatively large.
Including the younger brother, when the four people in front of them appeared, the three Khitan soldiers threw the target bags two high and one low, and the movement trajectory of the three target bags in the air was also different.
The younger brother didn't think there was anything wrong with this at the time, and guessed that it was probably because the three Khitan soldiers who threw the target bag used different forces when throwing the target bag, so there were high and low.
It was precisely because I discovered this feature that I thought that for the sake of safety, if I am not sure of shooting three arrows at the same time, it is better to do something more certain, that is, to shoot two arrows at the same time, so that at least two target bags with relatively similar trajectories can be hit. ”
Yang Huairen nodded, his position on this side of the stands, it is indeed not easy to find out what big difference there will be after the target bag is thrown, and Lu Jinyi can find the difference between the three Khitan soldiers throwing the target bag, and can quickly find the best way to shoot the two most sure at the same time, that is, his ability to adapt to changes is very strong.
But after Lu Jinyi recalled this, Yang Huairen found out where the so-called cat greasy was.
He asked, "Do you want to say that when the last Wanyan Agu to play the competition, the three target bags were thrown up at the same time, and the strength was the same, so the trajectory of the three target bags flying in the air was also the same, so it would be easier for Wanyan Agu to hit all three arrows?" ”
Lu Jinyi nodded and shook his head again, "According to what my brother said, when I think back to the scene just now, it is indeed like this.
However, the younger brother also has to admit that if it was me at that time, I would not be completely sure that I would be able to hit all three target bags thrown at the same time. ”
Yang Huairen was very relieved that Lu Jinyi was indeed sincere and pragmatic, and did not slander the winner because he had suffered unfair treatment in the competition just now.
Although Lu Jinyi did not win in the first riding and archery competition, his performance was still remarkable, very exciting, and he was able to accept the victory of Yan Agu, which showed his broad-mindedness.
Yang Huairen waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, we have the grace to lose." But we can take advantage of this matter, we can look at failure with a normal heart, but whether the other contestants can see it this way, it may be uncertain. ”
The brothers immediately understood what Yang Huairen meant, and Lu Jinyi smiled, "I understand, I will reveal this discovery to the other contestants when I have the opportunity in a while, let's just wait and see the excitement." ”
Yang Huairen nodded with satisfaction, and turned his gaze to the depressed Xiao Huhu and the angry Xiao Sabi, I don't know what kind of reaction they will have when they know about this matter, and whether they will have such a mind as Lu Jinyi.
And those Khitan soldiers who threw target bags must have been instructed by Yelu and Lu Wei to dare to use this less obvious method to secretly help Wanyan Aguda.
Yelu and Lu Wei, if you just look at their faces, they are a little similar to Yelu Hongji, they both have square faces and big ears, they look very majestic, and they give people the feeling of being upright.
But in fact, Yang Huairen's understanding of Yelu and Lu Wei, this old man is famous for being greedy for money and lustful, and it is not a secret that the common people in Zhongjing City know.
Whether it is Yelu Hongji or other officials of various ethnic groups in the court, everyone knows what kind of virtue Yelu and Lu Wei are, but because he is the younger brother of the Khitan Emperor, and now he is in a high position, no one dares to speak ill of him in the open.
Judging from the performance of the Goryeo envoy Wang Zizhi and the Jurchen representative Wanyan Aguta, Yang Huairen almost guessed something, these two must have found Yelu and Lu Wei before, and the purpose is also similar, and they should have also given a lot of gold and silver gifts or beauties to this greedy and lustful old man.
When Yelu and Lu Wei were in front of them, they must have boasted about Haikou and promised them something, but unfortunately he promised two families, or even more people, so when it came to the matter, he could only choose which one he benefited the most to help.
Although he did not participate in Yelu Hongji's meeting to discuss how to conduct a contest to recruit relatives, as the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, after Yelu Hongji thought of a way, he would definitely find him to arrange for the soldiers of the Liao State Forbidden Army to carry it out, so he must know the content of the competition.
Because of this, he can manipulate the Khitan soldiers who threw the target bags, telling them what to do and who should put some water when they play.
Looking from the stands, the traces of water release are not visible, and even the contestants on the field, if they are not reminded, they will not be so easy to find out about throwing target bags, and they will be manipulated.
Yang Huairen didn't find out before, let alone take the initiative to think about it, but he noticed from Yelu and Lu Wei's performance several times that he must have had some ambiguity with a certain envoy, so after seeing Wang Zizhi's angry expression, he thought that there was a ghost in the riding and shooting competition just now.
In fact, in terms of archery, Wanyan Aguda is indeed a step ahead, Xiao Huhu and Qianshan Bird must have realized this in their hearts, but they were indeed treated unfairly, which was enough to make them feel guilty about Yelu and Lu Wei and Wanyan Aguda.
After Yan Agu was beaten, he just spent a lot of money to buy an insurance, compared to the Goryeo envoys, Wang Zizhi was the real loser of his wife and soldiers, no wonder he gritted his teeth so much.
