Dong Ce and Xie Dingkun both saluted Hou Jiawei, but their expressions were very cold.

Hou Jiawei was surrounded by dozens of family members, leading the way in front of his head, and the convoy followed behind. The number of his family members is twice as large as the average guard, Liu Ruozai saw this scene in his eyes, and snorted coldly: "Bahu! ”

But they did not enter the city gate, but walked around the city, and went in a northerly direction, and went straight to the school grounds.

The boundary of Zhenqiang Fort is small, but the school field is located in the north of the city.

The convoy was quite large, and Liu Ruozai's carriage was guarded by Dong Ce and others, but the cart behind was guarded by some soldiers brought out of Zhenhe Fort. The speed of travel behind slowed down a lot, and gradually opened up a considerable distance from the front.

The area around Zhenqiang Fort is only one mile and seven minutes, even if it is from the west gate to the north gate, it is not far away, but it is about half an hour, that is, it is not far from the land.

It was the first time for Dong Ce to come to the north gate of Zhenqiang Fort, and when he saw the situation here, he immediately applauded.

About thirty meters beyond the north gate, there is a large building with a tall wall on the outside, like a small fortress. There are buildings such as the city disc shooting port on the wall, although its height is not as high as the city wall of Zhenqiang Fort, but it is also strong and heavy, and it is by no means easy to take down.

This must be the school place.

About half a mile to the northwest of the school yard is a continuous mound of hills, which are not seven or eight miles long and thirty or fifty meters high. It is bare, there is no grass, and if you look closely, you can still vaguely find traces of several enemy platforms.

Dong Ce is a person who knows the soldiers, and he can see at a glance that the mound, the school field, and the city of Zhenqiangbao rely on each other. If the enemy wants to attack Zhenqiang Fort, then he must gnaw it down little by little, or else, abandon two of them and attack only one, and the other two will be like thorns in the back, and the stabbing will make him extremely painful. In particular, if the continuous mound is set up on it with Hongyi cannons, Western cannons and other cannons, then the control range covers the entire Zhenqiang Fort, and is far away for several miles, which can be called a strategic location.

In this way, this town is the most fortified, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Hou Jiawei rode over and laughed: "My lord, everyone, there is the school field in front, do you go in like this, or get off the bus and walk?" ”

"Please wait a moment, Lord Hou." Dong Ce replied with a smile, rode his horse to Liu Ruozai's carriage to inquire, and turned around and said, "Lord Bingbei Dao ordered, just go in like this!" ”

"It's good!" Hou Jiawei smiled and said: "Adults are getting older, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the wind." ”

He waved his hand, and the men under him were scattered on both sides, expelling two human walls, and they rode their horses, all of them were well-armoured and sharp-armed, and they all drew their sabers at their waists, and shouted in unison: "Greetings to Lord Bingbeidao!" ”

The voice spread far away, and everyone heard it.

If someone else did this, Liu Ruozai would think it was to please him, but at this time, Hou Jiawei put it out, and he only thought it was a demonstration.

Snorted coldly: "Let you be proud for a while, and there will be your death later!" ”

Dong Ce stared at Hou Jiawei and frowned.

This guy is really getting more and more rampant, could it be that he has found something to rely on? Fortunately, he will be slaughtered today, otherwise he will have a long night and many dreams, and sooner or later something bad will happen.

Everyone gathered around the carriage and continued to move forward, and Hou Jiawei's family members followed both sides and entered the gate of the school yard together.

Hou Jing was lying behind the female wall of the city wall on the west side of the school grounds, and was sleeping soundly. He was wrapped in a thick layer of felt, and his whole body was curled up in a ball, even his face was encased, and only his eyes and nose were exposed. Bathed in the warm evening sun, he slept soundly, and even let out a slight snoring sound.

The shouting at the entrance of the school woke him up, but he was not in a hurry to do it, but turned over, and the whole person lay on the felt, stretching comfortably. His whole body stretched out, and the bones all over his body made a crackling sound, this lazy posture reminded people of stretching his neck, stretching his limbs, blowing up all the hairs on his body, and yawning with his mouth wide open, although lazy and seemingly inadvertent, in fact, the bright fangs and claws could not be concealed no matter what, full of murderous intent.

He shook his neck again, moved his shoulders, waist, chest, abdomen, and legs, and did not get up until all parts of his limbs were hot. But it is not to stand up, the female wall is not high, if you stand up, you will definitely be discovered.

He only wore a thin Tsing Yi, but the material was very precious, and it was the best Qingxi silk produced in Jiangxi. He was half-kneeling on the ground, and looked out through the firing port to see that Liu Ruozai's carriage had entered the school yard and was going down to the shade of the tree on the west side of the school yard, thinking that it would stop there.

Hou Jing's eyes shrank.

The tall young man beside him who was wearing a purple flower armor, and obviously wore a bunch of armor that didn't know how many layers of armor he was wearing, it must be Dong Ce Dong Erlang!

Dong Erlang, who is unparalleled in the world?

"Joke!" Hou Jing let out a low cold snort.

There was a large package next to it, and he untied it, and inside was a pair of armor bags, a large bow, an arrow insert, an eight-petal helmet, a pair of iron arm guards, and an iron bone duo.

Hou Jing pulled out a large arrow from the arrow insert, this big arrow was at least one and a half feet longer than the feather arrows commonly used by the Ming army, and it was more than four feet long, which was converted into units in later generations, and it was almost about one hundred and thirty centimeters long. The cluster of arrows is five inches long, more than twice as long as ordinary feather arrows. Behind the shaft of the arrow, four goose feathers are glued.

The feather arrows of the Ming Dynasty are all three arrows, and the so-called three feathers refer to the way of sticking feathers. The three-feather arrow of the Ming Dynasty system, in the later generation, is to divide a round arrow shaft into three equal parts with a total of 360 degrees around, and stick a feather and three feathers at an angle of every 120 degrees, which is the so-called three-feather arrow. It is said that after the three arrows are fired, the errors in the trajectory of the arrows will be automatically corrected.

In the Song Dynasty, there were also featherless arrows and wooden feather arrows, which are said to have been lost due to the loss of traditional livestock land, resulting in the lack of feathers. However, this statement is not credible, in ancient times, the best arrow feathers were naturally strategic materials, but even if Khitan Xixia and other countries did not sell feathers to the Song people, did the Song people not eat chickens and geese?

And Hou Jing's four-feather arrows only appeared for a while in the pre-Qin period, and then they became extinct long ago, and at a glance, he knew that he made it himself.

Then he picked up his bow in his left hand.

It was a large bow, more than twice as large as an ordinary bow, almost a man tall, not a common compound bow, and the production process was quite simple, but the bow arm was the thickness of an adult man's wrist, and at a glance you knew that it was infinitely powerful.

It stands to reason that archery must be down-to-earth, and only by standing firmly on both feet can it borrow strength steadily, but Hou Jing doesn't care. He didn't know how many catties of strength he had, and hundreds of soldiers in the entire Zhenqiang Fort were his opponents when it came to opening a hard bow and lifting a stone lock.

He knelt on one knee behind a battlement, leaning back slightly, holding the bow in his left hand, taking the arrow in his right hand, and using the first joint of his thumb from between the fingers and the third joint of his index finger to clamp the tip of the arrow about half an inch to seven minutes in front of it, the index finger and thumb were crossed, and the buckle was stuck on the bowstring, and the tail of the arrow was resting in the position of the tiger's mouth.

The arrow passes through the mouth of the left hand, the body of the arrow is attached to the bow, the left arm is flat, and the right hand pulls the bowstring backwards, because he uses the tail of the arrow and the position between the first and second joints of the thumb to bear the pressure of the bowstring, so it is more labor-saving.

If he does not hold an arrow in his hand, he can draw a hard bow with one stone, but if he holds an arrow in his hand, he can draw a strong bow with two stones.

Of course, either of these two numbers is appalling enough, you know, a sergeant in the army who can draw a stone bow is enough to call it powerful. And this is the previous stone, a stone in the Ming Dynasty is heavier than a stone in the past dynasties, the army is a non-commissioned officer, it is good to be able to open the five-bucket bow, and it is a very powerful archer to be able to open the eight-bucket bow.

It is rumored that some generals in ancient times could pull out the three-stone bow and the five-stone bow, Hou Jing didn't know if he could compare with them, but he knew that in the entire Northern Hebei Province, I am afraid that everyone can compare with himself.

(According to the weight, Ming 1237.3 grams, Ming 1 catty is 16 taels, that is, 596.8 grams, the above said 594.6 grams, these are two statements, but the gap is small enough to ignore.) One stone in the Ming Dynasty was one hundred and fifty-three catties and eight taels, that is, one hundred and eighty-eight catties and eight taels today, that is, two hundred and eight pounds of bow. ）

He drew his bow to eight minutes full, and was not yet round, and then stared at the advancing carriage.

One hundred steps, ninety steps! The unit of literal meters is one hundred and thirty or forty meters. The general step bow, separated by such a distance, has no strength, and I am afraid that even the fat jacket is enough to shoot through.

But Hou Jing had confidence in himself, and he once used this bow to shoot through a three-inch-thick plank two hundred paces away.

The use of the bow and arrow is also very particular, you can not use a bow that exceeds your own strength, it is best to use a bow equivalent to six or seven percent of your strength, so that you can lower the bow, and you can pull it full, and the maximum strength of the bow can be brought into play. At the same time, long arrows are used, which are heavy and large, not far away, but they are like the iron bones of the heavy hammer and axe in the weapon, and the power is extremely great. So wait until the enemy comes close!

Draw the bow and shoot it closely, the speed of the arrow is extremely fast, and it can really achieve "the string rings and people die"

His arrow pointed to the front of Liu Ruozai's carriage.

If Liu Ruozai gets out of the car, he will inevitably show his head there.

This was something he had discussed with Hou Jiawei early on.

When he arrived at the school field, Liu Ruozai would definitely get down, and when he stepped out of the carriage, Hou Jing wanted to shoot him with an arrow. Originally, he advocated that the first arrow should shoot Dong Ce while everyone was caught off guard, and kill the most difficult person first, as for Liu Ruozai, he was just a scholar, wouldn't it be easy to kill him? But Hou Jiawei's consideration of the problem is obviously much more far-reaching. Once Liu Ruozai is shot, Dong Ce, Xie Dingkun and the others will definitely fight and fight without a leader. Greatly reduced, there is not much left; And after killing Liu Ruozai, everyone has already committed the crime of disobedience, and after the liquidation, no one can escape, and they will all be found out and killed! Once you get on the thief ship, you can't get off again.
