Chapter 356 Do we want it too?
During this period of time, the Centaurs were able to keep up with their training thanks to their excellent physical fitness, but for the Elf soldiers, who were already average in terms of physical fitness, it was undoubtedly very difficult, and they were frequently hit during this training process.
Until this day comes...
"This afternoon, the weapons training content is bow and arrow!"
As he spoke, Li Ce had already signaled his subordinates to set up the target wrapped with straw rope, and at the same time began to distribute short bows and practice arrows to the soldiers.
When the grassland elves, including Silk, heard that they were going to practice archery, they all became excited.
They admitted that they could not compete with humans and centaurs in terms of physical strength, but when it came to archery! When this was mentioned, the grassland elves straightened their backs a little.
After Li Ce finished his request, there was no need for anyone to urge them this time. Silk stepped forward and stood first, taking the lead in bending the bow and drawing the arrow. His movements were as smooth as flowing water.
The next second, there was a sound of "whoosh", and the arrow flew out from the bow and hit the bull's eye! Then Silk did not stop and quickly pulled out the second arrow.
Li Ce and his colleagues' archery training is not just about letting you aim at the target. Simply put, they have time requirements.
After all, in actual combat, you don't have that much time to aim slowly, not to mention that battles on the grassland are basically conducted on horseback, and the situation will only be more urgent.
It is not difficult for veterans to shoot arrows slowly one by one, but the difficulty will double if you shoot arrows quickly and continuously.
Ten arrows make up a round, and Silk hit the bull's eye with all ten arrows in a row, causing the soldiers watching on the side to cheer loudly.
Listening to the cheers around him, Silk's mouth curled up slightly and his chin unconsciously raised a little.
After that, the remaining five elf soldiers also rushed forward.
So far, the worst performer has managed to hit the bull's eye with six arrows, with four of them in the inner circle.
In comparison, both the centaurs led by Drogo and their human soldiers pale in comparison.
Although bows and arrows are also weapons that the Centaurs are good at, the Centaurs' advantage is that their archery skills can still be stably displayed while moving at high speeds.
Simply put, it is a super stable riding and shooting ability.
Under this premise, in terms of the accuracy and level of archery, they are generally not much different from human soldiers.
Drogo, who is currently performing the best, is only one arrow better than the worst one on the grassland elves' side. No wonder the other side is so proud.
"The talents of these grassland elves are really infuriating."
Outside the training ground, Li Ce, who was supervising their training from a distance, couldn't help but complain to Zhou Chongshan beside him.
After this period of time, Li Ce undoubtedly has a relatively deep understanding of these grassland elves, so he knows that they are not a group of people who love training, and even the concept of "training" does not exist in their previous lives.
However, it was such a group of guys who easily accomplished what they had been unable to do despite constant training. How could he not be angry? During this period, the archery training had already entered the second round.
As Silk was the first to play in the first round, he was naturally the first to play in the second round.
There is actually more than one target, but because continuous shooting consumes a lot of arm strength, Li Ce and his team did not make any requirements on rotation efficiency.
After all, this is just a training, and they don't want the soldiers to injure their arms during training.
Silk shot all ten arrows quickly, and all hit the bull's eye as usual.
Unlike the first time, this time, Silk vaguely felt that some changes seemed to have taken place in himself.
"Strange, why do I feel like my eyesight has gotten better than before?"
"That's the leader's blessing!"
Just as Silk was muttering to himself with a puzzled look on his face, Zhou Chongshan's voice rang out.
At some point, Zhou Chongshan had already walked in front of Silk.
"Blessing?"
He was not unfamiliar with this term.
When he swore allegiance to the Great Zhou, the leader had said that he would bless them.
But he didn't take it to heart at the time.
"Those who follow the leader will receive the leader's blessing. The effect of the blessing is reflected in many places, including allowing us to see farther and run faster. As for how much blessing we can get, it depends on luck."
As Zhou Chongshan spoke, he grabbed the bow and arrow that was supposed to be handed to the second grassland elf. Without further ado, he fired ten arrows in a row, all hitting the bull's eye, causing the human soldiers on the training ground to cheer loudly.
"Captain is mighty!"
"As expected of a captain, all ten arrows hit the target!"
Zhou Chongshan's fate was undoubtedly because Li Ce saw that the grassland elves here were a little too arrogant, which would be detrimental to future training, so he let Zhou Chongshan go down to kill the opposing team.
As the cheers started, many of the grassland elves, who were originally enjoying their powerful dominance in the archery field, frowned.
"So what? Lord Silk also hit all ten arrows, and he has already hit them twice! From this point of view, our Lord Silk is more powerful!"
The human soldiers were just having fun at that time, but they were poured a bucket of cold water by the grassland elves beside them, and they all looked unhappy immediately.
"It's not like we shot twenty arrows in a row, how can we still count it like that?"
"That's right! And I just calculated the time. The captain shot ten arrows in a shorter time than Warrant Officer Silk. In other words, our captain is more powerful!"
While they were talking, both sides started arguing with each other, neither willing to give in.
Zhou Chongshan listened to the noise and his eyebrows twisted into a ball.
"What are you all arguing about? Do you still want to train? Since you're in such good spirits, go run five laps on the playground and then come back to continue training!"
After Zhou Chongshan finished speaking, the human soldiers didn't need to say anything more and just started running.
This situation made the grassland elves nearby at a loss.
At this moment, Zhou Chongshan's sight fell on the group of grassland elves led by Silk.
"What are you still standing there for?"
Obviously, this sentence also included Silk.
In response, Silk glanced at the human soldiers who were already running, then turned to look at the tribesmen behind him, and gritted his teeth.
“Let’s go for a run!”
After saying that, he took the lead and ran towards the playground.
During this process, the centaurs led by Drogo were watching the fun happily from the side until Zhou Chongshan's eyes fell on him.
Drogo was stunned by Zhou Chongshan's look.
"Ah? No, we want it too?"
