57, throwing spear
"What can a group of riots do? The other party is fleeing people. We rely on the village to fight against the enemy together. Can't we still fight back against a group of defeated soldiers? On the contrary, you, what ability do you have to dare to help me? It's ridiculous!"
Faced with the sarcasm of the young mountain people who were stubborn, Yan Xing smiled indifferently. He originally wanted to state the excellence to the old man, help them defeat this group of riots, and also facilitate his exchange of dry food and horses with them. But now it seems that these two guys who are pretentious with a little courage make a mistake in person, and the girl who is willing to revenge him instigated him. If he could not use force to suppress them now, he would not have the chance to sit down and have a deep conversation with the old man.
Thinking of using force to suppress the two people on the other side, Yan Xing turned his eyes and glanced on the short spear on the weapon stand next to the open space. He quickly made a decision. The wound on his body was wrapped up soon. It was not difficult for him to defeat them in person, but it would take more time to show his own means and ability. Second, during the fight, it was inevitable that the wound would be pulled, and the injury would be worsened again. Third, it would be too much for the other two people to defeat the other side, which would be detrimental to their next actions.
Therefore, the best way to use force is to use these spears commonly used by mountain people to impress them.
Yan Xing's idea of using the spear throwing technique to impress the mountain people opposite was not groundless. Although the spear throwing technique of this dynasty did not form a formal spear throwing force in the army like Zhang Shi, both the civilian and the military, experts with first-hand throwing skills are regarded as warriors, and can even dominate the counties with this skill and become famous.
For example, Gan Yanshou, who was also a native of Liangzhou in the former Han Dynasty, entered the Yulin Army as a good son when he was young. He was not only good at riding horses and shooting archery, but also possessed the unique skills of throwing. It is said that because of his agility, he was able to hike and climb over pavilions, and had a good martial arts skills to throw stones to kill the enemy. He was promoted to a Langguan in the Yulin Army, which was full of warriors.
After that, Gan Yanshou even used this unique skill to defeat all the heroes in the test camp and became the tiger Ben of the court. This gave him the opportunity to lead troops to fight. He fought in the Western Regions like Chen Tang, who shouted "Those who violated me in the Ming Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away." He made a strong record of killing the Xiongnu Zhizhi Shanyu.
The central open space of this settlement is a place where people gathered and trained the young and strong people in the settlement. Yan Xing had long seen a device such as targets and weapons racks on the open space in the field. He did not speak, and took off the weapons on his own, walked towards the weapon rack in the eyes of everyone, either surprised, despised, or vigilant, and took out the only three short spears on it.
In front of everyone, he stood by the weapon stand and weighed the length and weight of the short spear. The short spear in his hand was obviously a rough and artificial weapon. The spear head was polished with stones, and the overall proportion of the spear body was not very coordinated. It was not used in battle formations, but it was enough to deal with wild beasts in the mountains.
By the same token, it is just right for Yan Xing to establish his authority in front of these mountain people with this short spear.
Yan Xing looked around and suddenly stretched out his finger to point one place. When the mountaineering people in the field looked at it, they were not aiming at the target, but pointing at a log with a thick bowl on the field. In the past, many mountaineering people used the shadow of the log to judge the approximate time of the day. Now when they saw the other person pointing at the log, someone immediately muttered quietly.
"Would this man have to throw logs with his short spear? It's fifty or sixty steps away from his position."
The stout man as strong as a cow and the mountaineering man also saw Yan Xing wanting to hit the log with his spear. They estimated that the distance would take at least fifty steps away. If they threw the spear at this distance, they could do it, but there was no way to guarantee the accurate throwing.
Especially when the target you throw is a log, if you hit the log, the momentum is declining and the strength is not enough, the spearhead polished by the stone at the front of the short spear often rubs against the log, leaving at most a scratch on it. If you blindly use brute force, the accurate head of the short spear will drop significantly. It can be said that it is very difficult to hit the log at this distance. Only those who control both the arm strength and accurate head to perfection can do it.
The two looked at each other and saw an inexplicable smile in each other's eyes. In their opinion, this burly man was too self-righteous and wanted to use this difficult spear throwing technique to impress everyone. I am afraid that he would be humiliated later. Only the girl in the crowd had a lot of glory in her eyes. She had seen this man's hand-fighting technique before, which was so powerful that she had no backhand power. Seeing that he was fearless now, he was really skillful and brave. He could not stop him by relying solely on the difficulties of Hutou and Daniu.
Yan Xing ignored the whispers of the mountain people in the field, as if to fight back and question, he first inserted two short spears on the ground, held the spear in his right hand, looked at the distance, adjusted his body, exhaled, and stepped forward with the left leg, quickly threw the short spear in his right hand out with the momentum of leaning forward.
Following Yan Xing's roar was the sharp sound of a short spear breaking through the air. Then, it was like looking at a continuous arrow. The mountain people in the field only saw a series of black shadows intersecting and connecting. Before they could react, the three sounds of hitting the log had already sounded. The three short spears were inserted into the log, lined up in a straight line from top to bottom. The distance between the spears was only a slight difference. The neat and orderly spear rod seemed to be proudly inserted into the enemy's position like a battle flag.
"Hiss—"
The mountain people who saw this superb spear throwing technique in the field took a breath. They didn't expect that the man in front of them was so powerful. If this martial arts went hunting, the wild boar with thick skin would not be able to escape his fatal spear.
Unlike other mountain people who were shocked, the young mountain people with a stubborn head and a strong man were shocked in their hearts. They also practiced the spear throwing technique. They were among the best in the mountain people in the settlement. They were quite conceited on weekdays and knew better than others how difficult it was to throw the spear throwing technique that the man had just demonstrated. Compared with him, they were really far from him.
