Chapter 794 Your Majesty, please be quiet for a moment!
At this time, Arslan also saw this scene.
When Zhu Feng walked past him, he glanced at him and raised his eyebrows slightly, as if challenging him to a fight.
Arslan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, please go first."
Zhu Feng smiled.
Of course, their confrontation couldn't begin so early.
Otherwise, it would be a shame to have such a big event today.
So Zhu Feng strode forward, and soon he reached the wide track.
When those who were leading the horses and preparing saw him coming, they all stepped aside, and some even showed complicated expressions on their faces.
At this time, Zhu Feng said: "If you want to flatter me and give in to me, that's fine."
Everyone looked at each other.
"However," Zhu Feng said, "I am also taking this opportunity to check on your daily horseback archery practice."
“…”
"If anyone neglects to practice, I will punish them severely!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately gave up the idea of flattery.
After all, Zhu Feng was a man who had fought on the battlefield. He didn't need others to flatter him. What he needed was a group of soldiers who could really fight and some truly powerful battles!
At this time, the commander walked to the starting point.
He said to them, "Your Majesty, and all of you, please mount your horses."
Zhu Feng waved his hand, and Xiao Shunzi immediately led a horse over to him. Nan Yan took a look and saw that he had just picked one from his stable. Of course, there couldn't be any inferior horses in the emperor's stable.
When everyone saw this, they became even more excited.
After all, everyone still wants to get the emperor's generous reward.
So, everyone climbed onto the horse's back. Zhu Feng also stepped on the stirrup and sat on the horse's back nimbly. He looked back and saw Nan Yan in the tent with his hands clenched into fists in front of his chest, looking very nervous.
He couldn't help but smile.
Then he turned around, bent down slightly, held the reins tightly with one hand and the whip tightly with the other.
Everyone is ready.
On the entire grassland, everyone's eyes were fixed on them. At this moment, the commander gave an order -
"start!"
Suddenly, more than a dozen horses on the track shot out like arrows.
All of a sudden, a cloud of snow rose half a sky high.
Nan Yan hurriedly stood up from his seat and stretched his neck to look ahead. He saw that in the diffuse snow dust, more than a dozen riders were almost moving forward in unison, suddenly rushing out of the smoke and dust and galloping towards the front.
Nan Yan couldn't help but say, "Come on, Your Majesty!"
The wind whistles in my ears.
Normally, when riding a horse, you feel like you are riding at lightning speed. However, it is different in the cold winter, because at this time, the wind will turn into ice knives, cutting people's faces one by one, and the coldness will continue to penetrate into the body through the collar and even the cuffs.
After a while, I felt as if my whole body was frozen.
However, it is at this moment that a man's blood bursts out.
The colder the wind, the more it aroused their fighting spirit.
Zhu Feng raised the whip in his hand and swung it in the air with a sharp, piercing sound: "Go!"
The horse under him was also stimulated by the sound of the whip and ran forward quickly. Gradually, a horse's head stood out among the people and horses marching in step around him.
Nan Yan excitedly grabbed Ran Xiaoyu's hand: "Look, look, the emperor is even faster!"
Ran Xiaoyu couldn't help but smile and said, "Of course."
Although Zhu Feng's horse was fast, the other riders were not pushovers either. Moreover, Zhu Feng had already said that if he found out that they were negligent in riding and shooting, he would punish them severely. So everyone put in their best efforts and waved the whips in their hands desperately.
Suddenly, all the horses sped up.
The horses in front were particularly anxious, running almost as fast as lightning.
After all, the pasture was very large, and in a short while, the horses had run very far away. In everyone's sight, only a row of small dots remained, and it was impossible to tell who was who.
Nan Yan couldn't help but stand on tiptoe.
Your Majesty, how is he?
He will definitely win!
Ran Xiaoyu's eyesight was better than theirs. As she looked ahead, she suddenly said, "They are about to cross the river."
"Ah?" Nan Yan looked at him in surprise: "Cross the river?"
"Well, there's a section of the track where we have to cross that river."
Nan Yan said softly, "Is everything okay?"
Ran Xiaoyu didn't say anything.
The river had dried up long ago, and the little bit of ice remaining on the riverbed emitted a biting cold. After a while, Zhu Feng and his men had rushed here. There were still a few broken pieces of wood lying across the riverbed, which were almost rotten due to being soaked by the river water.
Just as he was about to step on the horse, Zhu Feng suddenly kicked the horse's belly.
"drive!"
Suddenly, the horse let out a long neigh, kicked the ground with its hind legs, and suddenly leaped up and jumped directly across the riverbed.
The riders and horses that followed Zhu Feng closely, almost moving at the same pace as him, all opened their eyes wide in shock.
When they walked this section, he and they all slowed down at the same time.
Worried about slipping on broken ice.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty the Emperor jumped over in an instant.
Just this one move created a long distance between them.
Nan Yan stood in the tent, staring at the front. After a while, the sound of the wind in her ears seemed to be mixed with the sound of hurried horse hooves.
She opened her eyes wide and saw a man on horseback galloping towards her from a distance.
"It's the Emperor!"
She almost couldn't help but jump up: "It's the emperor, it's the emperor!"
Ran Xiaoyu was so frightened that she reached out and grabbed her to stop her from jumping around, saying, "It's the Emperor, it's the Emperor, Your Majesty, please be quiet for a moment!"
At this moment, the people around were cheering like a tidal wave.
Amidst everyone's cheers, Zhu Feng took the lead and crossed the finish line like lightning, and the rest of the cavalry followed suit.
Today's speed is already very good for them.
However, none of them could defeat Zhu Feng.
Everyone couldn't help feeling a little depressed.
Zhu Feng pulled the reins and rode back slowly. Looking at the cavalrymen, they all said, "Your Majesty is valiant and brave. We are defeated wholeheartedly."
Zhu Feng glanced at them and said calmly, "I've been on horseback since I can remember, and it's been twenty years."
“…”
"I once spent a whole day on horseback practicing my riding skills, and both my legs lost all feeling."
“…”
"If you want to be like me, there is no shortcut other than hard practice."
When everyone heard this, they felt a little emotional.
Even the emperor did not have innate miracles; they were acquired through diligent practice.
At this time, the commander shouted: "The winner of the first group is His Majesty the Emperor!"
Suddenly, the people around cheered again.
Zhu Feng got off his horse and threw the reins to the followers behind him. When he walked towards the tent again, he saw Arslan slowly standing up from his seat.
