Chapter 10 Bow and Arrow
It's been three days since he came here to South Camp, Zuo Houde has almost no work every day, he is very leisurely.

There were only a few, and the injured soldiers were trained to come to treat them.

Every day, I mostly chat with that doctor and watch the training of soldiers in the camp.

On this day, Zuo Houde was under the tent, but he was bored, so he summoned the entourage arranged by the camp, "Shiro, find me a bow and arrow."

"I don't know how many fights the doctor will make," Shiro asked, clasping his fists.

The calculation method of the bow force of a bow is: fix a bow on the wall, and then hang a heavy object on the bow string. When the bow is completely drawn, the weight of the weight hanging on the bow string is the weight of the bow. bow strength.The ancient one-stone bow (the weight of one stone varies from dynasties, ranging from 30-60 kg) is already a strong bow.Tang Wuju used a stone bow for shooting long piles, and a bow of more than seven buckets for cavalry shooting. The archers of the Song Dynasty army were equipped with a stone bow as standard.

This stone bow in the Youzhou Army weighs about 45 kilograms.Only those with amazing arms and good marksmanship can make it.

"Shiro and I will take the seven-dou bow."

In Youzhou City, horseback riding and archery is almost everyone's skill. If you say you are proficient or not, everyone can do it. Although Zuo Houde studies medicine all the year round, when autumn comes, he often goes to the horse farm to play, ride and shoot. His ability to speak is not perfect, but he is still passable.

From time to time, Shiro brought seven buckets of hard bows.

This bow is a common iron tire bow, a laminated composite bow with a mixture of metal and bamboo and wood ribs, and the back is iron.Instead of wooden bows, iron bars are embedded in the back of the bow to increase the range and power. It is also called "iron ridge bow".

This is a common type of bow that the people of Youzhou love to use. Many parts of the bow body are covered with iron sheets, and there are even iron tire bows with a full iron body. Even without arrows, the bow itself can be used as a weapon.

Shiro knew that Zuo Houde probably wanted to practice archery, so he brought a quiver, which contained more than ten arrows. The length of the arrows was about 90 cm. The heads were of course made of iron, and the shafts were made of poplar wood. Thick and straight can fly smoothly.The feathers are glued to the nocks, not only secured with glue, but tied securely so that they do not come off during rapid flight.

Zuo Houde puts on the "韘", which is a tool worn on the thumb of the right hand to buckle the bow when archery. It is also called "jue", commonly known as "pull finger".

In the barracks, each battalion has its own shooting range. Now the soldiers in Zuo Houde's battalion are training, but there are few people in the shooting range, only two or three generals are practicing arrows.Zuo Houde also knew two other people, a tall and thin man named Li, everyone called Li Er, who was a village chief, and another white-faced man named Zhang, whose name was a cloud, who was also a village chief.Zuo Houde had never seen the remaining strong man.

"Zuo Langzhong also came to practice archery?" Li Er called out.

"Exactly, it's boring in the camp, so I came to the shooting range to practice arrows, but Brother Li and Brother Zhang, why didn't they bring soldiers to train? I haven't seen this brother before. I'm the military doctor in this camp. I don't know who he is? "

"Haha, my brother turned out to be a military doctor in the camp, and I am Yan Zhong in the personal guard camp. I am the sixth eldest in my family, so you can call me sixth brother." Yan Zhong smiled heartily.

"It turns out that the sixth brother is in the personal guard camp!" Zuo Houde.

"That's right, so the general went to report to the city, and our brothers followed suit. We didn't arrive in the army until last night. This morning, I was called by the general to practice arrows, alas." Yan Zhong complained. Dao, thinking about it, practicing archery in his opinion is a very troublesome thing.

"Our brother and Sixth Brother Yan are old acquaintances, so we will accompany Sixth Brother to familiarize himself with the barracks as soon as Sixth Brother arrives at the barracks," said Li Er on the side.Zhang Yun also nodded in agreement.

After chatting with them for a while, Zuo Houde walked aside and practiced alone.

The person and the target were about fifty paces away, Zuo Houde drew out an arrow, set the bow, raised the arrow, and shot the arrow in one go, the feathered arrow went straight to the target.When Zuo Houde saw it, he missed the target by three inches, almost missed the target.

Zuo Houde raised his bow silently, raised it slightly, aimed at the distant target and shot another arrow, then lowered it slightly, shot again, changed seven arrows in a row, and each arrow would shoot a little bit more. Adjustment, after the seven arrows were shot, the last arrow finally hit the bullseye.

Zuo Houde is very clear that the materials of bows are different, the force of drawing the bow is different, and the lines drawn by the arrows in the air will not be the same. In addition, the weight of feather arrows will also affect the route, so an excellent archer generally uses his own bow, which is the most familiar and the most accurate.

Of course, for a real hunter, with an unfamiliar bow and arrow, he can adjust it with at most three arrows.

In fact, the archery masters at the racecourse at that time all said that Zuo Houde was very talented.In fact, Zuo Houde understood that it was mainly because of his strong golden fingers.

Practicing breathing techniques all the year round, he is physically strong, there may be hundreds of catties of strength between his arms, and the internal organs have been strengthened all the year round, and his endurance is far beyond that of ordinary people.Archery has an advantage over ordinary people, I don't know how much greater it is.

Of course, Zuo Houde knew that his archery skills had not yet entered the classroom, and it was not displayed on the system page.

That's all right, one word "practice"

Zuo Houde took another arrow, maintaining the strength and angle of the previous arrow, let go and shot again, hitting the bull's-eye again.Draw an arrow from the quiver again and shoot it again, and repeat this process until seven or eight feathered arrows are shot, and four of them hit the bull's-eye.

Zuo Houde shook his head, like this kind of fixed archery target, not to mention all the skilled archers hit the bull's-eye, there are still some out of ten shots.

Look at the side, Yanzhong archery, he really has no talent, the posture of archery is so strange no matter how you look at it.None of the arrows hit the bull's-eye, and even a few missed the target.

Li Er and Zhang Yun next to them looked like veterans in the army. Their speed was not slow, and their rhythm was not slow.

For Zuo Houde, strength and physical strength are sufficient, so Zuo Houde did not control the speed too much, after all, it is inaccurate now rather than lack of physical strength.

For Li Er and others, archery requires controlling the speed of archery and mastering one's own rhythm in order to maintain physical strength.Ten arrows were shot out at such a fast speed that the strength of the entire arm was gone.

Dreaming is useless, Zuo Houde took the feathered arrow from the archery target and put it into the quiver.Walk fifty paces away and shoot again.

Another round, luckily seven or eight hit the bull's-eye.

Li Er on the side came over and said in surprise, "Zuo Langzhong's physical strength and arm strength are very good!"

Li Er could tell at a glance that Zuo Houde's arm and physical strength were very good, for example, the bow in Zuo Houde's hand was the same as his, it was seven buckets.However, like Zuo Houde, who shoots as fast and as many shots as possible, Li Er thought he couldn't do it.

It is not a lie that archery consumes physical strength, like Zuo Houde's archery, Li Er estimated that after one round, he would have to lose his strength.Seeing that Zuo Houde shot two rounds, his face was still flushed and he was not panting.

"It's okay, brother Li, do you have any tips for archery?" Zuo Houde also wanted to find some tips.

"There's no trick. If you practice a lot, you'll be able to shoot right!" Li Er said with a nonchalant expression.

"Then practice more." Zuo Houde also knows that practice makes perfect, and most likely he has no skills.

He took off the feathered arrow, put it in the quiver, and shot again.

After four or five quiver shots, Zuo Houde couldn't bear it anymore, his right arm was a little sore.I can only learn from Li Er to control the speed of archery, maintain a slower rhythm, and then shoot.

After shooting a hundred shots, he returned to the military doctor's station to rest. At the same time, he gave some medicine to his sore right arm.
