The sky gradually darkened. The eight of them went to the river nearby to take a simple bath.
Autumn was about to pass. After the few of them worked together to start a fire, they rushed into the river with a roar. The taste immediately made those who entered the water suck in a breath of cold air, while those who had not yet entered the water shivered.
During this time, when the others saw them starting a fire, they also smiled and greeted them.
There were no more clothes. He would only be able to get it tomorrow. He could only endure the smell of sweat for one more night.
There was nothing fun to do at night, so the eight people in the tent could only continue chatting. Everyone quickly got familiar with this. They chatted from the south to the north. In the end, they even talked about the current Great General of the State of Qin, Wang Jian.
Who was Wang Jian?
The entire Lantian Military Camp was filled with soldiers. Wang Jian was one of the highest-ranking generals here.
Such a legendary figure was too far away from them and they could not come into contact with him at all.
It was hard to say if they could even meet.
At this moment, Xiao Xiao was lying on the bed. He was also curious if Boss, Third Brother, and Fourth Brother were here, or if they had been sent elsewhere.
As he thought about it, Xiao Xiao fell asleep.
...........
The next day, the clothes and armor were distributed. Everyone received two sets of clothes and one set of armor.
Apart from these, dozens of soldiers pulled out a few carts of weapons.
Most of them were bows, spears, iron shields, and Qin swords.
Because Xiao Xiao always carried a Qin sword on his back, he wanted to take a bow. However, there were requirements for holding a bow.
Among all the weapons, only the bow could be obtained after passing the test. This rule was to prevent those who were afraid of death but did not know how to shoot arrows from wasting their bows.
"Go over there and pass the assessment!"
The soldier in charge of registration seemed to be used to it. He said without raising his head when he saw Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao followed the soldier's finger and placed it down. As expected, he had already seen the place where the test was held. There was a dense crowd of people standing there.
"Boss, are you going to take a bow too?”
When he heard the voice, Xiao Xiao turned around and saw Pan Jiang smiling at him with shifty eyes, as if he was a kindred spirit.
"I'm more skilled with bows and crossbows."
Xiao Xiao nodded. To his dismay, Pan Jiang actually nodded his head reasonably.""Indeed, we are good at using bows.”
In the end, Xiao Xiao smiled and didn't explain further. He walked towards the assessment area with Pan Jiang.
There were many people who wanted to use bows and crossbows. At least 500 people in a team of 700 were at the assessment area. The five hundred people formed a long line in the new recruits.
"Not qualified!"
....
" Not qualified!!!"
....
"Not qualified!"
......
The few soldiers in charge of registration shook their heads and continued to complain about their failures.
Many soldiers who were watching the show also smiled speechlessly. Every year, everyone wanted to become an archer. However, only one or two out of a hundred people passed.
The assessment was also very simple.
It was a pass if all five arrows hit the target within fifty steps.
There was also a target at the 75th step, and three out of five arrows passed.
There was a target every hundred steps. One out of five arrows passed.
....
He chose this question. Don't underestimate the distance of twenty-five steps. After 50 steps, every extra step required more strength, and the requirement for hitting the target was also higher.
The hundred-step target only needed one arrow. However, not to mention the strength required to cover a distance of 100 steps, it was still a problem for someone who had not practiced to fly the arrow.
Don't even think about raising your bow and shooting randomly. The person who registered next to you was a veteran.
His eyes were very sharp!
"Do you think Boss and Second Brother can hit it?”
"I don't know."
"But don't worry. There are so many people who didn't pass. Even if the eldest and the second didn't pass, it's not embarrassing!”
.....
Zhao Kun and the others had already chosen their weapons. They were one of the few who knew that they were superior. Therefore, he knew his place and did not join in the fun.
They were already satisfied with the weapon they chose.
Soon, the queue gradually decreased until they reached Pan Jiang. Basically, half of them had already been eliminated.
"Name?"
"Pan Jiang!"
"Shoot arrows."
.....
After simply saying the name, the soldier had Pan Jiang raise his bow and shoot. However, after five arrows, Pan Jiang also failed miserably.
"Not qualified!"
Pan Jiang chose a target that was fifty steps away. After five arrows, only one arrow hit the target.
Hearing the soldier's words, Pan Jiang put down his bow indifferently.
In any case, he came here just to try his luck like the others.
Looking at Xiao Xiao behind him, Pan Jiang gave Xiao Xiao an encouraging look and then walked to the other side.
"Next."
....
Following the soldier's words, Xiao Xiao walked up. He picked up the crossbow beside him and tested its strength. It felt like it was much better than the crossbow he had at home. This crossbow required a lot more strength.
He took five arrows from the carriage beside him. Then, Xiao Xiao went to register the soldiers.
"Name?"
"Xiao Xiao!"
"Shoot arrows."
....
"It's a pity that Second Brother can't do it."
"Look, it's Boss's turn!"
