Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 158: Archery and Horseback Shooting! (Thanks to the monthly ticket support from book friend 2021…8678~)

Looking at Lu Bu's calm and composed smile, Huang Zhong already understood the huge gap between them that was like a chasm!
He sighed and shook his head:

"No need. I admit defeat on this one. But..."

Huang Zhong smashed the sword in his hand to the ground, and the bottom of the sword was embedded in the mud.

He took off the Wanshi bow from his back, stroked the metal bow, and gradually regained the confidence of a top warrior.

"The next archery competition, you better be careful! I claim to be the second best archer in the world, but no one in the world dares to claim to be the best!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Bu nodded in agreement.

Huang Zhong's archery skills are truly unrivaled in the world.

Although there is no clear record of this in the official history.

However, in the novels, it is not uncommon to see records of the enemy shooting arrows through willow trees and hitting the target every time.

Especially in the duel with the Martial Saint Guan Yu, his superb archery skills of hitting the target wherever he pointed made Guan Yu admire him very much.

Although Lu Bu did not dare to underestimate Huang Zhong's archery skills, he was equally confident in his own archery skills!
The story of shooting the halberd at the gate has been passed down through the ages and is even recorded in official history!

His archery skills are definitely not inferior to the opponent's.

Lu Bu threw the White Tiger Sun-Devouring Sword back to Wei Yan, and took over his own archery weapon, the Dragon Tongue Bow, from Zhang Liao.

"How do we compare?" Lu Bu asked.

Huang Zhong looked around and pointed at two horses not far away:
“We wore leather armor, rode on horseback and shot at each other, three arrows each.

"An effective shot requires that the target be shot at any part of the body without injuring the target's skin or flesh.

"The one with the most effective shots wins. If the number is the same, you win too!"

After listening to the competition rules given by Huang Zhong, Lu Bu couldn't help but let out a "tsk".

Not only do you have to hit the opponent, but you also can't hurt him.

This is because they know that he is very strong, so they are deliberately restricting his strength.

After all, many men can ejaculate accurately.

But it is still quite difficult to shoot accurately without hurting the opponent.

However, Lu Bu agreed without hesitation, with an expression of interest on his face.

What's the point if you can win without any difficulty?
Seeing that Lu Bu readily agreed, a look of recognition appeared in Huang Zhong's eyes.

He admitted that the other party was far more powerful than himself.

He doesn't even need to display any martial arts, he can defeat ten opponents with his own strength just by relying on the power of ten thousand enemies.

But since he dared to challenge me in archery, it wouldn’t be considered bad even if he lost in the end.

The two men each carried a quiver with three arrows on their backs, rode on an ordinary war horse, and galloped wildly in the wilderness outside the city.

The fight between the two just now has already attracted the attention of countless soldiers and civilians.

Even the You County Magistrate, Liu Pan, heard the news and came to the city wall to watch the show.

As Liu Biao's nephew, Liu Pan actually did not have much feeling about Liu Biao's death.

After all, he is not my biological father, but my uncle.

Moreover, the other party arranged him to a small place like You County, which really made him bored.

He often took his men to invade the county town in Yuzhang.

However, after Yuzhang was captured by Lu Bu, he no longer dared to act so presumptuously.

Unlike Liu Qi and Liu Cong, the former was arranged in Nanjun, and the latter was pampered by his side every day.

And his nephew had long been forgotten... So he had no objection to Han Xuan's choice to surrender to Lu Bu, and was even happy about it.

The last time he learned that Lu Bu sent people to win over Huang Zhong, he didn't think it was a big deal.

He has a good relationship with Huang Zhong. If Huang Zhong can be reused by Lu Bu, maybe he can also benefit from it!
At this moment, watching Huang Zhong and the man who looked like Lu Bu galloping in the wilderness, drawing his bow and arrow, he was praying in his heart that this man could win!
"Whoosh-!"

Huang Zhong was the first to shoot a ridged and double-winged arrow. The arrow looked light, but its speed was incredibly fast!
The arrow predicted where Lu Bu would appear next and hit the leather armor on his chest directly!
However, Lu Bu was also an expert in archery and had exceptionally good eyesight, so how could he not understand the other party's thoughts?

He immediately dropped his body to the right side of the horse, and the arrow brushed past his left arm and did not hit his body!
At the same time, Lu Bu clamped the horse's belly and back with his feet, maintaining the dodging posture just now.

He drew his bow with both arms and shot a three-pronged metal arrow at Huang Zhong from under the horse's belly!

In order to increase its lethality, Lu Bu's arrows have always been filled with a lot of metal.

However, considering that the leather armor could not block the attack of his arrows, he only used 30% of his strength in this arrow.

Even so, the arrow still spiraled in the air, making a whistling sound!

He moved quickly towards Huang Zhong's calf which was inconvenient to move.

If the opponent dodges his legs, the arrow will definitely hit the horse.

Without the help of his horse, Huang Zhong would undoubtedly be more easily shot!

Facing Lu Bu's scheming arrow, Huang Zhong's face was gloomy. He suddenly pulled the horse's head and pulled the reins hard to the left!
The horse neighed in pain, its body raised high, and was forced to rotate to the left!
The arrow that should have hit the horse's body or Huang Zhong's calf missed!
The spiral arrow penetrated the ground, making a small hole in the compacted earth.

The entire arrow was completely embedded in the soil, which shows how powerful this arrow is!
However, Lu Bu also secretly praised Huang Zhong's ability to respond on the spot!
He is worthy of being one of the Five Tiger Generals. Even if he is ranked at the bottom, he is still a rare and powerful general in the world!
The competition continues.

Just when Huang Zhong used his superb horsemanship to dodge Lu Bu's arrow.

He took advantage of Lu Bu's distraction and quickly shot an arrow at him!
Faced with this arrow that he could have dodged, Lu Bu pretended that he could not avoid it, and was shot by the opponent's arrow and hit the leather armor on his left arm!

The arrowhead stuck to the leather armor but didn't penetrate it completely.

It is obvious that Huang Zhong is well aware of his own strength and the defensive capabilities of his leather armor!
This is the veteran’s rich life experience!
When the soldiers under Huang Zhong saw that Huang Zhong had taken the lead, they immediately applauded.

However, Liu Pan on the city wall couldn't help but hammer the city wall, his face full of regret.

Lu Bu pulled the arrow out of his shoulder and did not rush to shoot the next arrow.

The two continued to circle around, looking for each other's weaknesses.

However, soon, the horse under Lu Bu began to run out of strength.

After all, this is just an ordinary war horse.

However, Lu Bu's height of more than two meters, weight of nearly two hundred kilograms, and high-intensity running caused the horse to gradually slow down.

Huang Zhong keenly grasped this point, and suddenly his arms stretched out, the bow was pulled to full length, and the tendons were taut!

The next moment, there was a loud bang!
Huang Zhong's last arrow shot towards Lu Bu's chest like a dragon emerging from the sea!

Facing Huang Zhong's full-strength arrow, Lu Bu seemed to have expected it, with a playful smile on his face.

He immediately drew the bow and held the arrow, and let the arrow fly!
This arrow actually flew straight towards the arrow shot by Huang Zhong!
The two arrows quickly collided head-on in mid-air, like two carriages colliding!

However, Lu Bu's arrows were undoubtedly harder and more powerful.

This arrow actually tore Huang Zhong's arrow completely in half from beginning to end!

Huang Zhong had never expected such a shocking scene.

Caught off guard, Lu Bu's arrow, which still had force left, actually hit the armor on his shoulder!

Because a lot of the power was offset by Huang Zhong's arrows.

So this arrow just hit the target but failed to penetrate the armor and cause any harm to Huang Zhong!
Huang Zhong looked at the arrow hanging on his shoulder, and his expression suddenly became extremely complicated...
