As for what Yang Huairen thinks, Yang Huairen just smiled lightly, and didn't say anything, just say that you understand it in your heart, you think you are a character, but in the eyes of my brother, you are at most a mallet.

Brother Hei Niu was going to stand up to participate in the riding and archery competition, but unfortunately his bow was a long and hard bow of Zhemu, which was suitable for foot shooting, not for riding and shooting, because the bow body was too long, and it was easy to hit the horse's head when riding on a horse and pulling the bow.

Lu Jinyi was very able to comprehend the intentions of Yang Huairen and Brother Hei Niu, and naturally stood up and said, "What Grandpa said is, this kind of rough work, why do you need Grandpa to end up?"

General Li's archery skills are exquisite, but it's a pity that a Zhemu longbow is not suitable for riding and shooting on a horse, and besides, why should the general be allowed to go out in person in this kind of competition? Just let the subordinate do the work for him. ”

Yang Huairen smiled and nodded in agreement, so he didn't care what Yan Aguda thought.

Lu Jinyi's words were very loud, which made Wulaliga and others next to him very unhappy to hear it, this competition to recruit relatives, almost everyone looked very serious, but a few people on Yang Huairen's side easily came to play with them, which really made people feel angry.

Yang Huairen, the county duke, did not appear because he was a literati and did not know how to ride and shoot, this reason is very understandable, but why not send the legendary black general who was a sharpshooter in the battle of Huanzhou, it is not easy to understand.

What's even more infuriating is that a horse pawn volunteered to participate in the competition on behalf of Yang Huairen, and people like Ulaliga sounded as if he was competing with a horse pawn of the Great Song Dynasty, like a horse and a mule and horse racing and running with Rome, which lowered his status.

Different from the arrogance of Ulaliga, Wanyan Aguda is still very cautious, before he pulls it out for a walk, it is not easy to say who is the mule and who is the horse, Ulaliga is a little contemptuous of Lu Jinyi, but Wanyan Aguta does not agree with Ulaliga's point of view.

He looked at Lu Jinyi, judging from Lu Jinyi's dress, it was indeed as he just said, he was just a pawn beside Yang Huairen, not a general.

But Wanyan Agu beat Lu Jinyi's eyebrows and felt that this person's appearance was very heroic, and it was by no means as simple as an ordinary pawn, so he still attached great importance to him in his heart and did not underestimate him.

On the side of the Goryeo envoys, because Wang Zizhi was recruiting a daughter-in-law for his master Wang Xi, Wang Xi had never come to Liao, so he also found a Goryeo warrior to accompany him to fight.

The Goryeo samurai was born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but he was sturdy, and he was a good hand at first glance, but the name sounded funny in Yang Huairen's heart, called a thousand mountain birds, Yang Huairen couldn't help but say that when your parents named you, there was less "flying out", right?

Xiao Dabuhe's side, naturally, he didn't fight in person, but sent a general from the Xiao Mansion, named Xiao Huhu, this name is more strange than the other, so that Yang Huairen couldn't help it, and finally laughed out loud.

Xiao Dabu didn't like it, thinking that Yang Huairen looked down on the warriors he sent, so he provoked, "Xiao Huhu is the first warrior of the Little Eagle Army in my Great Liaobei Courtyard, what's the matter, does Envoy Yang think there is anything ridiculous?" ”

Yang Huairen hurriedly restrained his smile and said, "Xiao Gongzi is not strange, I didn't laugh at you, I didn't laugh at you, hehe......"

When the contestants were selected, they were led down by a Khitan sergeant and led their horses to prepare for the first riding and archery competition.

The first one on the field was a samurai sent by a tribe that Yang Huairen couldn't even name, the man had a small braid, like a reggae head, and he looked quite individual, but unfortunately archery was like that, the first time he rode his horse through the area where the target bag was thrown, and the first arrow was empty.

Maybe this samurai had never practiced, so as the first person to play, he hadn't mastered the trick of shooting sports target bags, so he made a fool of himself.

On this side of the stands, most of them were nomadic men with straightforward personalities, and when they saw that the samurai's first arrow had flown somewhere, they immediately burst into laughter.

The laughter was loud, and the samurai naturally heard it in his ears, and his face became extremely cold, and he gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind that the second arrow must be shot, so as to save some face.

But the more he was afraid of losing face, the more nervous he became, and the result was that the more nervous he was, the more jokes he made, and on the second trip, the target bag was thrown into the sky, soared to the highest point and then fell to the ground quickly, and his arrow still did not release.

He was too nervous, so he wanted to aim accurately, but the target bag stayed in the air for a short time after it was thrown, and after a little hesitation, he missed it.

The first time he shot in the air, the second time he didn't even release the arrows, there was a burst of laughter in the stands, Yelu and Lu Wei, the veteran, glanced at the leader of the tribe with disdain, shook their heads and said, "These people are so bad, I really don't know how they have the courage to dare to think of being the golden sword and horse of my Da Liao." ”

I don't know which official who watched the excitement smiled, "What the prince said is that these small tribes are not only bold, but also big enough to cover the sky, and the lower officials didn't understand their riding and archery skills, and they also have faces that can be shown, and the result is that they have become the laughing stock of all of us, haha......"

The leader of the tribe lost face, and was useless by these Khitan nobles and officials, so he had no face to face, covered his face with his hands, and said discouragedly, "Let's quit!" ”

There were only ten contestants left. Yang Huairen also didn't know who set the order of the contestants, whether it was decided by lottery or volunteered, and the second one to appear was Lu Jinyi.

To be honest, Yang Huairen is not unconfident in Lu Jinyi's riding and archery skills, but after the scene just now, Yang Huairen is really a little worried.

This method of riding and archery is somewhat similar to the usual horseback hunting on the grassland, but it is a little different.

When hunting, the prey in most cases is not standing quietly in place waiting for you to shoot, the prey in front of the prey escapes, the hunter rides a horse to chase behind, and the hunter judges the trajectory of the prey, and then he instigates the horse to find the best shooting angle, then he pulls the bow and arrows, and shoots the prey.

The difference is that if the prey is a bison or a wild sheep, the target is very large, as long as it can hit the body of the prey, whether it is critical or not, at least the prey can be injured, at least ready for the deadly shot of the second arrow.

But this method that Yelu Hongji came up with is to put three arrows in three target bags, and each target bag will give you a chance, but you can't put two arrows—not to mention that there is not enough time for you to put two arrows.

If you have to compare, it's more like shooting rabbits on the prairie.

Experienced hunters know that it is not difficult to hunt bulls, deer and wild boars, but the most difficult thing is to shoot rabbits that are small in size and very agile.
