"Captain!"
When Han Cheng saw Xiao Xiao, he put away his bow and trotted over.
The other recruits also stood up straight.
The more they came into contact with the crossbow, the more they felt the distance between them and the captain. That day, the captain had told them what it meant to be able to pierce through a poplar with a hundred steps. He used his actions to show them how powerful an archer could be.
150 steps, 10 arrows, 10 hits.
And they all hit the bullseye.
Every time they thought about it, they felt their blood boil. He fantasized that he would be able to shoot these ten arrows one day.
In this era, there were no so-called idols. However, they all admired Xiao Xiao.
Especially since their commander had said that a captain's strongest weapon wasn't his bow.
It was Qin Jian!
.....
"How was the training?"
Xiao Xiao asked when Han Cheng arrived in front of him.
Zhao Kun, Yi Kang, and Han Cheng were in the crossbows. Han Cheng was the most talented. This was also why he had entrusted all the archers to him.
Zhao Kun had the greatest strength and was good at swords and spears. He was in charge of training other than archers.
On the other hand, Yi Kang had an advantage in managing and commanding troops. He could be said to be Xiao Xiao's right-hand man.
When Han Cheng heard Xiao Xiao's question, he revealed a smug smile.
"These 500 soldiers can hit the bullseye at 50 steps, and they can hit three out of ten targets at 100 steps.”
Han Cheng said.
Xiao Xiao handed over all the archers in the army to him. This trust was indescribable. Therefore, even without Xiao Xiao's reminder, he did not dare to be careless.
Now that he saw this effect, he felt extremely satisfied.
.........
After chatting with Han Cheng for a while, Xiao Xiao left the military camp.
Now, other than his daily training, he had nothing else to do. After leaving the military camp, he suddenly heard someone calling him.
"Captain! Captain!"
He thought that perhaps a recruit from the military camp had something to ask of him. He did not expect to turn around and find that the person who called him was actually a fatty. He had a fair and chubby appearance and a smile on his face. However, his clothes were very luxurious.
"Do we know each other?"
Xiao Xiao's expression was a little strange as he asked with uncertainty.
In his impression, the recruit camp was not that fat, and he had never seen this toot face before.
"My name is Mi Qiao, and I'm honored to know General Xiao. Please do me the honor of speaking with me in private.”
Fatty Mi said with a smile, his eyes narrowed into slits. It was hard to hate this ending.
Xiao Xiao looked at the fat man in front of him who was gesturing for him to go ahead. He thought for a moment and followed him into the teahouse.
In the teahouse, many merchants and tourists sat around a table in twos and threes and chatted. They talked and laughed.
Xiao Xiao watched as Fatty Mi led him to the stairs of the teahouse and gestured for him to go up. Then, Fatty walked up.
The more polite Fatty was, the more strange Xiao Xiao's expression became.
Mother Xiao had told him since he was young that there was no such thing as a free lunch. If someone suddenly became close to you, then they must have a favor to ask of you.
Xiao Xiao felt that his mother was probably talking about Fatty Mi.
The second floor was different from the first floor. The second floor was divided into pavilions, and there was only a tea table in each pavilion.
Fatty Mi brought Xiao Xiao to the third floor.
"General Xiao, please!"
......
Xiao Xiao and Fatty Mi sat opposite each other behind a screen on the third floor. There was a coffee table in front of him, and he could see a lot of the city's scenery from the window beside it.
Two young maidservants who were about fourteen or fifteen years old obediently poured tea for the two of them.
"Uh... Brother Mi, why did you call me here? Can you tell me now?”
Xiao Xiao had never been scouted by anyone before. He felt a little awkward when he saw the servant girl pouring tea for him. After pouring the tea, he turned to Fatty Mi and asked,"
It was obvious that this fatty was a rich man. It was definitely not for no reason.
"Hehe, I just want to be friends with General Xiao. General Xiao is already a general of a thousand troops at such a young age. It's my honor to have a friend.”
Fatty Mi narrowed his eyes and smiled.
However, Xiao Xiao smiled at his explanation and did not take it seriously.
Fatty Mi was looking for him today. It was definitely not just a simple chat over tea.
But after that, Xiao Xiao thoroughly knew how powerful Fatty's mouth was. That ability to flatter others was simply innate.
If it wasn't for his own experience, if it was someone else, they might really be praised by this fatty.
After a few cups of tea, Fatty Mi looked at Xiao Xiao, who was still as calm as ever, and a hint of helplessness finally appeared on his toot face.
In the past, when he met people of his age, or even some elders, they would always smile brightly under his words.
This was the first time he met someone who didn't listen.
"General Xiao, why are you looking at me like that?”
Fatty Mi smiled bitterly. He could see that Xiao Xiao's calm eyes still treated him as if he had just seen him for the first time. He was unfamiliar and wary.
"I mean no harm."
Fatty Mi explained, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Xiao Xiao, who was sipping his tea.
"But you didn't tell the truth."
Xiao Xiao looked at Fatty Mi expressionlessly.
“....”
Fatty Mi was speechless.
