This acquaintance.
It’s Qingxing.
Zhao Hao lifted the car curtain and said quickly, "Miss Qingxing, why are you here?"
Qingxing today was still wearing the same green shorts as before.
In her hand, she held the silver sword that Zhao Hao had made for her.
There was still no unnecessary expression on his face, just like an iceberg that had never melted.
"His Majesty ordered me to accompany the Duke to Luoye City and to protect his safety."
Zhao Hao nodded, feeling surprised and not surprised.
"In that case, Miss Qingxing, please get in the car. We will set off immediately!"
Qingxing nodded slightly, walked over, stepped into the car, and got into the carriage.
Zhao Hao said softly: "Miss Qingxing, take off your shoes. It will be more comfortable this way."
His carriage was covered with two layers of quilts, which were soft and comfortable.
Qing Xing nodded, took off his shoes and put them aside, then sat cross-legged and placed the sword in his hand horizontally across his legs.
Zhao Hao looked at him, smiled softly, then retracted his gaze and started reading his book.
The army set out, and their progress was still very fast.
Seven days later, they finally arrived at Luoye City.
Seeing the reinforcements coming, the people in the entire city seemed to have their hope ignited. They surrounded the army and cheered wildly.
Zhao Hao lifted the car curtain and looked outside.
The whole city was relatively normal, but people wearing white mourning clothes could still be seen everywhere.
From here, Zhao Hao knew that many of the people defending the city participated in the defense.
Moreover, the casualties were also heavy.
When they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, all the officials from Luoye City came out to greet them.
Zhao Hao got out of the car and met a group of officials.
However, there was no sign of General Xiao, so Zhao Hao hurriedly asked.
Someone immediately informed them that General Xiao had gone to inspect the city defenses and was not in the City Lord's Mansion.
Accompanied by a group of officials, Zhao Hao walked into the City Lord's Mansion and waited for more than an hour before Xiao Danglu, whose hair and beard were all white, returned.
Zhao Hao hurriedly walked out to greet Xiao Danglu.
"Meet General Xiao!"
Xiao Danglu laughed and said, "You are finally here, kid! You brought 5,000 fresh troops with you, helping me out of my urgent need!"
Zhao Hao said quickly: "Your Majesty is very concerned about the old general's health. I heard that the old general was ill and was extremely worried."
"Therefore, send me here to serve the old general at any time, and let me bring 5,000 troops with me!"
Xiao Danglu laughed and nodded, saying, "I did catch a minor illness a few days ago, but it's nothing serious."
"This guy really can't help but admit that he's getting old!"
"But, my old bones can still hold up!"
"By the way, His Majesty said in the official document that you also brought 3,000 improved bows?"
"Quick, let me see what's so different about your strong bow!"
Zhao Hao smiled and nodded, "Okay!"
Having said that, he turned around and waved to Wusong. Wusong hurriedly walked to the side, took out the improved strong bow that had been prepared long ago, and handed it to Xiao Danglu.
Xiao Danglu took it in his hand and took a look at it, and immediately let out a light exclamation.
"This bow is so complicated and cumbersome?"
Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile and said, "Old General, why not give it a try!"
Xiao Danglu nodded, and immediately asked his men to bring the target and place it one hundred steps away.
Xiao Danglu simply pulled the bowstring twice and immediately felt the ease of pulling.
He immediately looked at Zhao Hao and said, "Boy, this bow doesn't have enough pulling force!"
Zhao Hao smiled softly and said, "Old General, give it a try first!"
Xiao Danglu nodded and took an arrow from one of his men.
Draw the bow and put the arrow on.
“Whoosh!”
As he let go, the arrow flew out with a whistling sound and hit the bull's eye directly at a hundred steps away.
Zhao Hao was also very surprised when he saw this and said, "Old General, you are still as charming as ever!"
However, Xiao Danglu was more surprised than Zhao Hao, even astonished.
Because, after the arrow hit the target, it actually penetrated the target directly!
"Boy, how can your bow have such power?"
He couldn't help but be surprised.
When he drew the bow just now, he clearly only used about 70% of his strength.
He wanted to use more strength, but the bow was already fully drawn.
In theory, it is absolutely impossible for such a force to penetrate the center of the target at a distance of one hundred steps.
But this bow did it.
Without waiting for Zhao Hao to answer, Xiao Danglu quickly ordered the soldiers next to him: "Go, move the target to 150 steps!"
Upon hearing this, the soldier next to him immediately went and moved the target to a distance of 150 steps.
"arrow!"
Xiao Danglu stretched out his hand and his men immediately handed him another arrow.
Xiao Danglu drew his bow and arrow and made a second test shot.
“Whoosh!”
The arrow whizzed out and hit the red dot on the bull's eye again.
The officials around also applauded and cheered.
Zhao Hao was also amazed.
This old man is nearly 70 years old, but he can still shoot an arrow through the target from a hundred paces away. He is really amazing.
This was beyond Zhao Hao's expectations.
Fortunately, in terms of archery...I had only practiced archery with my sister once in Shanglin Garden.
In his understanding, archery is also a skilled job.
It’s just like driving in the previous life.
No matter how long a driver's driving experience is, if they haven't driven for a while, their skills will naturally decline.
