Zhang Ren replied: "The martial arts assessment only has shooting and fists and feet, but those who pass the fists and feet, and those who pass the shooting, will add the assessment of riding archery, weapons, and horse warfare for them." At present, there are more than a dozen shooting qualified, and they are also skilled in cavalry shooting, and they have been used, and they can be directly used as cavalry, and if they are trained, they can be regarded as elite!

In terms of fists and feet, less than ten of them participated in the weapons and horse combat competitions ......"

Zhang Ren looked at Zhang Fei and said, "But none of them are General Zhang's enemies!" ”

Fewer than a few dozen people were admitted, which sounds like a few, but it's not.

First of all, it has only been more than 20 days since the recruitment list was released, and the ancient news was transmitted slowly, so at present, only the people around Shu County rushed to participate in the assessment. The follow-up news spread all over Yizhou, and the base for participating in the assessment was large, so there were naturally more admissions.

Second, Yizhou is a country of abundance, a peaceful place, the people are simple, and there are not many people who practice martial arts. Since ancient times, the quality of individual soldiers and horses from Yizhou has always been the weakest.

Only Zhuge Liang, a peerless talent, can train this kind of people into soldiers, soldiers into battle formations, and defeat Cao Wei's strong army in Guanzhong and Guanxi, which is known for its fierce folk style, in the field battle.

The folk customs are simple, and the style of martial arts is not prevalent, so it is difficult for Yizhou to produce fierce generals.

Among the fierce generals in Shu Han, Guan Zhang Zhao is from the land of Yan Zhao, Huang Zhong Wei Yan is from the land of Jing Chu, and Ma Chao Jiang Wei is from the land of Yongliang. Yizhou itself, there are almost no fierce generals.

After listening to Zhang Ren's words, Liu Chan muttered: "General Zhang, you can't do this assessment, you have to add a few more items!" ”

Ma Chao and Zhang Ren looked at each other, Ma Chao arched his hand and said: "These assessment contents are reported to the lord after the three of us discussed, what does the son think, you might as well say it directly, if it is reasonable, we are not too late to add!" ”

Zhang Ren also arched his hand and said: "Please show me!" ”

Liu Chan groaned: "The purpose of recruiting talents this time is to be a meritocracy, what is a meritocracy?" As long as you have a skill, you can be admitted. This army assessment, but there are only two kinds of shooting, punching and kicking, how can it be regarded as a meritocracy? ”

Zhang Ren asked: "Then I don't know what other projects may be added?" ”

"Most of these people who participated in the assessment are from Orion, and shooting is their forte, but they can also add two contents, one is rock climbing, and the other is digging traps!"

Ma Chao smiled when he heard this: "Childe, what is the use of this rock climbing and digging traps?" ”

"It's very useful!" Liu Chan said with a smile: "Think about it, in the future, my father will take the Northern Expedition of Hanzhong to seize the land of Yongliang, and Yongliang in Hanzhong, there are hundreds of dangerous places, and it is difficult for soldiers and horses to attack. ”

Zhang Ren nodded, and asked in agreement: "Well, that's not bad!" So what's the use of recruiting people who are good at digging traps? ”

Liu Chan explained: "Digging traps is also very useful, Cao Cao occupies Yongliang, and there are powerful cavalry under his command, but my father does not, if you can dig traps in advance, wouldn't it be much easier to deal with cavalry with tripping horse pits?" In addition, during siege warfare, soldiers can also be used to dig tunnels. Recruiting such a group of talents who are good at digging and familiar with the soil quality can also establish miraculous skills?

Cao Cao ordered meritocracy, recruited talents who were good at excavating, and set up a school captain to do such things, we should learn from each other's strengths, and we should not completely abandon or learn completely. Bringing all kinds of talents into full play is the only way to act. ”

Ma Chao nodded again and again after hearing this: "What Childe said is good, but we were negligent, no matter whether we can use it in the future, recruit it first, if it is used, it will be a miracle!" ”

Zhang Ren arched his hand and said: "I'm going to let people add these two assessment contents!" ”

"Wait, that's not the end yet!" Liu Chan hurriedly grabbed Zhang Ren.

"Childe, please!"

Liu Chan continued: "In addition, there should also be a new type of assessment of the art of war, you only set up the assessment of riding and archery, fists and feet, but you have forgotten the most important art of war. Talent who is proficient in the art of war is the most important thing!

Those who participate in the examination, you first ask about their strengths, and those who are useful to the army will stay. If the assessment is too strict and too many people are eliminated, the rest of the people feel that they are not capable enough, and they will not come. ”

"No!" The two of them gave up their orders and hurriedly went down to handle the matter.

The two stepped back to run errands, and Liu Chan stood on the edge of the fence and continued to observe.

Lin Xiao on the side said abruptly: "Young master, look, that person is good!" ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Liu Chan looked in the direction of Lin Xiao's finger.

The person Lin Xiao was referring to was located in the archery range, and Liu Chan looked at his appearance, about twenty-four or five, eight feet tall, and quite burly.

At the moment the man was shooting.

In the arrow range, the minimum requirement for shooting distance is 50 steps, and three out of 10 arrows hit the target, which is considered qualified. Of course, on this basis, participants can also improve the difficulty according to their own ability, shoot farther the target, the more difficult, the better the result.

Liu Chan stretched out his thumb and gestured, calculating the distance of the man's target, Lin Xiao saw this and said, "This is a hundred-step arrow target!" ”

Liu Chan looked at Lin Xiao and asked, "A hundred-step arrow target, you seem to be able to only shoot a hundred-step target?" ”

Lin Xiao nodded and said: "Yes, within one hundred and ten steps, if it is an archery target, ten arrows can hit eight arrows, and beyond one hundred and ten steps, it only depends on luck." ”

Lin Xiao was talking, and the man in the arrow range was already shooting with a bow.

Bend the bow and set the arrow in one go, and the arrow target comes out in response, and goes straight to the arrow target, right in the heart!

"Good!" Seeing this, Liu Chan Lin Xiao couldn't help but applaud.

Since ancient times, the strong have always been respected, shooting red hearts in 100 steps, and in terms of archery alone, they have been regarded as the first masters in the Three Kingdoms.

"Oh? What's wrong? Zhang Fei was holding the wine jar and was intoxicated, and when he heard Liu Chan Lin Xiao's cheers, he hurriedly put down the wine jar and came to the fence to watch.

At the arrow range, after the man shot the red heart, there were already many people gathered around him, Zhang Fei quickly found the target, and shouted: "Good guy, finally have an interesting one, shoot the red heart in 100 steps, I Zhang Fei is at this level, not blind!" ”

Liu Chan smiled: "Is it blind, there are nine arrows, see how many arrows he can shoot!" ”

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "If you can shoot five arrows, I will promote him to be a captain!" ”

At the arrow range, the big man shot again.

Another arrow was struck, right in the heart.

"Good!" Seeing this, Zhang Fei couldn't help clapping his hands and shouting, the cheering sound was like thunder, ringing in Liu Chan's ears, shaking his eardrums.
