Chapter 301 Exhausted

  Chapter 301 Exhausted

   Zhu Zhanji shot three arrows in a row.

   But he was still young after all, and he fired three bows in a row, exhausting too much energy, so he reined in his horse panting, and turned over.

  Zhu Di stepped forward quickly, hugged him in his arms, and shouted: “This grandson is like me.”

  In the words, there is indescribable excitement and pride.

  Zhu Zhanji said: “The grandson is not good at shooting.”

  The ministers around here couldn’t help praising him. At such an age, it’s really amazing to be able to make every shot.

   In other words, when they are at this age, I’m afraid they can’t do it.

  So, everyone shouted long live again.

  Only Zhang Anshi squatted on the stone again, watching silently, speechless.

  Zhu Zhanji was praised, and returned to Zhang Anshi’s side, squatted down side by side with Zhang Anshi, cupped his face and said, “Uncle, how do you think I shoot?”

   “Not bad.” Zhang Anshi said.

  Zhu Zhanji said: “I’m also afraid that I can’t shoot well, but today I’m lucky, I didn’t miss the shot, why don’t uncle shoot?”

  Zhang Anshidao: “I’ll wait for them to finish shooting, and then come to the end, so as not to wait for Uncle to come out, everyone will not be able to shoot, and everyone’s happiness will be defeated.”

   “Oh.” Zhu Zhanji blinked his eyes: “I will cheer uncle later.”

   Driven by Zhu Zhanji, the atmosphere became more and more heated.

  Everyone came on stage one after another, and one person even shot nine rabbits directly.

   Poor those rabbits, they didn’t provoke anyone, they were shot down one by one for no reason, and then picked up by the excited eunuchs by their ears.

  Of course, there were also people who failed to hit the shot a few times, and some people accidentally fell off the horse, causing everyone to laugh.

Zhu Di was furious, with a sullen face, pointing at the one who fell off the horse, he said: “I don’t even know how to ride a horse. It can be seen that I must have neglected horseback riding and shooting. How can the court expect such a person in the future? Come on.” People, drag it down, beat a few whips, write down his name, if there is no improvement in the next review, he will not be awarded the title.”

   These words can be described as extremely severe, which frightened all the disciples of the honorable ministers into silence.

  Can’t claim the title, and may be dragged to the frontier to guard the border, then this life will be over, maybe the title you get will be given to your younger brother.

  The scolded son of the minister hung his head and was dragged down. His father hurriedly bowed down and said, “Your minister has no way to teach his son, and he is a crime of death.”

Zhu Di wanted to make an example of others, so he sternly said: “You enjoy the royal salary, and you are extremely rich. If you teach your son like this and let him let him go, who else can be trusted in my Ming Dynasty? This time it is only a little punishment, and there must be no next time.” .”

   “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

  But at this moment, a guy shot his arrow crookedly, and the arrow flew straight towards Zhang Anshi.

  Everyone in Zhang An was paralyzed, his body was stiff, and he only had time to open his eyes and shout: “There are thorns…”

  Seeing this, Zhu Zhanji overthrew Zhang Anshi quickly with his eyes and hands, and fell to the side while protecting Zhang Anshi, and the arrow deflected a few feet away.

  Zhang Anshi was overthrown to the ground, but looking at the arrow stuck deep in the ground, he couldn’t help but feel lingering fear, and his face turned pale with fright.

  Zhu Zhanji helped Zhang Anshi stand up, and said with concern: “Uncle, you are not scared to death.”

  Zhang Anshi calmed down, and then said angrily: “My mother, I have hidden so far, why come to me in an unbiased manner? This must be a conspiracy…”

  The guy who missed the shot had already fallen off his horse in fright, and almost walked towards Zhu Di to plead guilty.

Zhu Di seemed to have noticed the situation here, and he was even more furious. He shouted: “The rabbit is in the east. You shoot west. Are you trying to murder the emperor’s grandson and Zhang Qing? You Niang, come here, take it down, and hang it for me!” Get up and fight.”

   As he spoke, Zhu Di asked the **** to call Zhu Zhanji and Zhang Anshi to him.

  Zhu Di looked back and forth at Zhu Zhanji and Zhang Anshi with concern, and said, “Are you all right?”

  Zhang Anshi is still in shock, his face is still ugly.

  Zhu Zhanji proudly said: “The arrow was aimed at the grandson. Fortunately, Uncle has quick eyesight and quick hands and protected the grandson.”

After Zhu Di heard this, he couldn’t help but looked at Zhang Anshi with admiration, and said with emotion: “Zhang Qing is usually not agile, but he always comes in handy at critical moments. This time, Zhang Qing has made a contribution. I think… this time it will be his review. Passed.”

  Everyone applauded.

In fact, Zhu Di also knew that Zhang Anshi would be ashamed if he rode and shot horses, but he couldn’t find an excuse not to take part in the review. If Zhang Anshi didn’t review it, others would inevitably say that he was unfair to Zhu Di. After all, this time, he was determined. I want to deal with a group of children of honorable ministers severely.

   Now it’s all right, Zhang Anshi has made a contribution to protecting the emperor and grandson, even if he has passed the test.

   Zhu Zhanji grinned happily.

  Zhang Anshi said: “Your Majesty, this… this…”

  He is a little ashamed. It is better to be a nephew. The nephew loves him. Now it is a bit embarrassing for him to admit that he has protected Zhu Zhanji.

  So Zhang Anshi said: “Your Majesty, everyone has reviewed it, how can I pull it down? I implore Your Majesty, the prospective minister will give it a try.”

  Zhu Di squinted his eyes and scolded this guy in his heart: I will give you the steps, but you still have to climb the pole!

   Under the watchful eyes of everyone, it was difficult to say anything, so Zhu Di had no choice but to say: “Okay, then later, you shoot a few arrows too.”

  Zhang Anshidao: “The minister shoots last, so as not to defeat everyone’s happiness.”

  Zhu Di said: “This is up to you.”

  Zhang Anshi and Zhu Zhanji retreated to that corner again, but this time, because of previous negligence, the imperial guards began to set up guards around the two of them to prevent stray arrows from shooting.

  The two squatted side by side, Zhang Anshi couldn’t help but looked at Zhu Zhanji beside him, and said with emotion: “My dearest and dearest little Zhanji, you still have a conscience, and my uncle didn’t love you in vain.”

Zhu Zhanji said: “Uncle, this is what it should be. I have grown up, and I will naturally protect Uncle in the future. The mother and concubine said that I only have one uncle. If Uncle is gone, I will have no uncle. ”

  Zhang Anshi hummed, feeling extremely relieved, and cheerfully said: “Later, I’ll take you to kill.”

  Zhu Zhanji puzzled: “What is quack?”

  Zhang Anshi said: “You will know later, when the time comes…our uncle and nephew will be the number one rabbit killer in the world.”

   Zhu Zhanji was holding a tree branch and scribbling on the ground at this time, as if he had no interest in it.

   Immediately afterwards, all the disciples of the ministers, because they were unfamiliar with riding and shooting, were inevitably pulled out and severely reprimanded.

Dingguo Duke Xu Jingchang was the worst. Because he was riding on a horse, his face turned green with fright, so he forgot to draw his bow. Everyone saw that he was at a loss on the horse for half a cup of tea, but he didn’t see him bending his bow and setting an arrow. The arrow came out, but the bow fell down in fright.

Duke Ding Xu Jingchang is the youngest. His father and Xu Huizu are brothers. His father, Xu Zengshou, was brought by Zhu Yuanzhang’s side in his early years and appointed as a court guard. After that, he followed his brother-in-law Zhu Di to the desert , made great contributions, and was later promoted to the left governor of the governor’s mansion of the five armies.

Logically speaking, he is considered an extremely human minister among military officials, but it is difficult for Zhu Di to calm down. After he heard about Zhu Di’s rebellion, the first thing he did was to secretly convey military information to Zhu Di and secretly support Zhu Di, but the court found out. He was finally killed.

  Zhu Di won the city of Nanjing. He was grateful for his brother-in-law’s contribution, so he posthumously named him Dingguogong and made his son Xu Jingchang succeed him.

   This is also the origin of the Xu family’s one family and two males.

  This Xu Jingchang is a young knight, even now, he is only fifteen or sixteen. How can he be familiar with bow horses on weekdays? This time I was timid and frightened.

  Zhu Di was so angry that he called him in front of him, picked up the whip, and slapped him several times.

Xu Jingchang was beaten so loudly that Zhu Di cursed angrily: “If your father is alive and knows that there is such an unworthy son, he will definitely teach me to take care of you. You bastard, who will be able to point at you in the future?” ?”

   Zhu Neng and the others hurriedly pulled Zhu Di, persuading him: “Your Majesty, forget it, I’m still a child.”

   “It’s just because he is young and hasn’t learned well that he wants to fight. This guy is not as good as an eight or nine-year-old emperor’s grandson.” Zhu Di was furious.

  Xu Jingchang exclaimed in pain: “My brother-in-law doesn’t know how to bow a horse either. Isn’t it different that he also makes meritorious service for the court? Doesn’t Your Majesty still praise brother-in-law? Brother-in-law often says that one needs to use one’s brains.”

   Zhang Anshi listened far away, his face changed, and he immediately lowered his head, pretending not to hear.

  Speaking of which, the relationship between the Xu family, the Zhang family, and the Zhu family is really a bit messy.

  For example, Zhu Di is the brother-in-law of Xu Jingchang’s father Xu Zengshou, Zhang Anshi is Xu Jingchang’s brother-in-law, and Zhu Gaochi’s son Zhu Gaochi is Zhang Anshi’s brother-in-law. Up to now, Zhang Anshi has not been able to distinguish between this level of relationship.

  Zhu Di scolded: “You bastard, how dare you speak stubbornly.”

   “Don’t dare.” Xu Jingchang saw that the situation was not good, but he quickly admitted it, and immediately bowed down and said: “Wan Shi.”

  Zhu Di said angrily: “Pull it up, you are not allowed to go out in March, and teach people to watch him.”

  Xu Jingchang, however, felt as if he had received an amnesty, and said: “Thank you for your grace.”

Everyone finished shooting, and to Zhu Di’s disappointment, although Zhu Yong, Zhang Fu, Zhang Fu, Qiu Song, and Gu Xingzu were all good, what surprised him even more was the emperor’s grandson, which exceeded his expectations Besides, the vast majority of people still neglected riding and shooting.

  Severely scolded a group, and asked people to record the file, still could not understand the hatred, but Yi Shiha saw Zhu Di’s mind, and said: “Your Majesty, please shoot.”

  Yi Shiha opened his mouth, and everyone said: “Your Majesty, please shoot.”

  Zhu Di’s face softened a little, and he also wanted to show everyone a demonstration. He agreed immediately, and asked someone to lead the horse, turned up and down neatly, and then started to urge the horse to gallop.

  Amidst the fast-moving wind, surrounding the hunting fence, bowing their bows and setting up arrows, each arrow shot out like a cannonball.

  The **** shouted excitedly: “Shoot one.”

   “Shoot two…”

“three…”

   “Four…”

   “…”

   “Seven…”

  At this time, Zhu Di slowly slowed down his horse and threw the bow and arrow.

  Everyone burst into cheers.

  Zhang Anshi and Zhu Zhanji almost broke their throats: “Long live, long live!”

   Then Zhang Anshi applauded, and Zhu Zhanji followed suit, applauding along with him.

Zhu Di’s face was flushed with pride, but soon he looked regretful, and said quietly: “I’m old, I’m old, my body is not as good as before, when I and our old fellows get old, this country will still point to it.” Who will guard it? Fuck it…”

  Zhu Neng was praised for his son’s outstanding performance, so at this time his face was also flushed, and he said: “Your Majesty, children and grandchildren have their own blessings.”

  Zhu Di snorted and said, “If you don’t work hard now, you still hope to be blessed. If you have a bird, who is born blessed, if you don’t have the ability, do you still count on blessing?”

   Zhu Neng grinned happily.

  He likes to hear Zhu Di scolding other people’s sons. It should always be when I, Zhu Neng, have a bright face, don’t they all say my son is stupid? Your son is smart, and you are also scolded.

   At this time, Zhang Anshi saw that today’s hunt was coming to an end, so he stood up hurriedly, pulled Zhu Zhanji and said, “Let’s go.”

  At that moment, Zhang Anshi came in front of Zhu Di.

   Saluted Zhu Di and said, “Your Majesty, I’m about to shoot.”

  Zhu Di seemed a little tired, and looked at Zhang Anshi with a smile: “Go, go, come, give Zhang Anshi my horse.”

  Zhang Anshi said: “Your Majesty, I don’t need to ride a horse.”

   “Not riding a horse?” Zhu Di couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed.

   But anyway, he didn’t expect much from this guy, so he said: “Then you are allowed to use the step bow.”

  But I heard Zhang Anshi say: “I don’t need a bow. This review, didn’t I say that it will kill more rabbits than anyone else? I just need to shoot rabbits to death.”

  Zhu Di was a little worried, this guy…can’t mess around, right?

  But at this time, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhu Di could only agree, and said, “It’s up to you.”

  Zhang Anshi said: “The minister has gone.”

   After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

  Many people were looking forward to Zhang Anshi’s performance, especially those who were punished, the most unlucky Xu Jingchang, although he was whipped, but now he is happy.

  He excitedly said to the disciples who were punished together: “My brother-in-law is here, my brother-in-law is here, my brother-in-law can’t even draw his bow, this is all right, His Majesty won’t blame us anymore.”

  But at this time… I saw Zhang Anshi pulling a small cannon.

It is said to be a cannon, but it is really small. It has only two wheels, a large pipe thicker than an arm is clamped on it, and two shells are placed on the side. The most interesting thing is that this thing also has a small wheels. ”

   Zhang Anshi was like a tracker at this time, pulling it ouchily. When everyone saw it, someone laughed and said, “No cannon is allowed.”

  Zhang Anshi ignored them, and pulled this thing to the entrance of the hunting ground. There are wild animals all over the mountains and plains, all of which were driven from the nearby mountains.

  I just shot arrows, although many hares were shot to death, but after all, the arrows did not make much movement, and most of the wild animals still looked leisurely.

   Zhang Anshi set up his machine gun.

  After further improvements, this thing is much simpler. Of course…the loading capacity is larger, and the hundreds of bullets loaded in advance are all in the magazine.

  Zhang Anshi tried it, and began to adjust the direction of the muzzle.

  Try aiming.

  Everyone looked at Zhang Anshi in a daze.

  Zhu Di also became suspicious, and Zhu Neng beside him muttered, “Your Majesty, this is not like a cannon.”

  Zhu Di nodded, but still remained silent, only frowning slightly, watching steadily.

  Based on his understanding of Zhang Anshi, he always felt that what Zhang Anshi presented was not simple!

Xu Jingchang was on the other side, still smiling with his eyes arched, looking very happy: “My brother-in-law is going to play tricks, and he must be fooling around again. Don’t worry, such a small cannon can’t kill a few rabbits, Your Majesty.” Seeing him opportunistic later, he will definitely be angry.”

  Everyone nodded and laughed.

  Although everyone is scumbag, there is always someone worse than them. Thinking of this, everyone has a feeling that they are not living in vain.

  Zhu Zhanji rushed over excitedly, squatted down, looked left and right, and finally couldn’t help but said: “Uncle, what are you going to do?”

   “Hits a rabbit.”

  Zhang Anshi debugged very seriously.

   “Uncle, do you want to help?”

   “Help me later and cover my ears. I’m afraid of using this thing, and I’m afraid of scaring myself.”

“Oh.”

Zhang Anshi continued to debug carefully. As expected, it was made by a skilled craftsman. This is the real craftsman spirit. Now, Zhanji, you have to be careful.”

   Zhu Zhanji said loudly: “Uncle, I will protect you.”

   Not far away, countless wild animals are still looking for food leisurely.

  They didn’t see the danger approaching.

  At this time, Zhang Anshi shouted: “Zhang Anshi is here.”

   After finishing speaking, he immediately pressed the trigger, and then… cranked the magazine.

  Everyone was stunned when they heard Zhang Anshi yell.

   But at this moment.

  Suddenly… da da da…

  The muzzle began to smoke.

  Then… the crisp rattling sound began to ring in everyone’s ears.

  The imperial guards were taken aback, and subconsciously began to surround Zhu Di.

  Zhu Di kicked away a guard who was about to block his line of sight: “Don’t get in the way.”

   Immediately after…

   da da da da…

   The sound of da da da da is continuous.

  The seven or eight muzzles began to spew out flames in turn.

   Immediately… Countless bullets flew out.

  The wild animals were frightened when they heard the movement, and ran like crazy.

   But it was too late.

   Bullets do not have long eyes, but this kind of dense bullets pour out.

  And the power is huge, there are flying shrapnel everywhere, and in an instant, within the hunting enclosure, there are countless hares that have been knocked into the air, and flesh and blood are flying everywhere.

An elk was shot with holes in it in an instant, before it could howl, it fell headlong, and the bullet pierced through its body, but there was no sign of stopping, the bullet that pierced through was shot into the soil again, And so… dusty.

  Zhu Di stared straight at the scene.

  Everyone’s eyes were fixed on each other, each showing an incredible expression.

   This thing has a lot of recoil, and Zhang Anshi soon felt that his arm was numb.

   Fortunately, this thing has no concept of aiming at all, just shoot it.

  Zhu Zhanji became excited. He covered Zhang Anshi’s ears, and saw countless bullet casings jumping out, occasionally splashing on his body. It hurt, but he didn’t care, and there was only excitement in his eyes.

Da da da…

   This machine gun shows no signs of stopping.

  The magazines changed wildly under Zhang Anshi’s hand, and the bullets were fired from different magazines.

  This terrifying sound is enough to cause a thousand mountains and birds to fly away.

  It’s a pity that the wild animals were surrounded by the fence and couldn’t escape, so they gathered around the fence in dense swarms.

   This just gave Zhang Anshi a chance, and the muzzle of the machine gun spewed out flames towards the densest place.

  The bullet shot into the body of the wild animal, and suddenly, the hare can be beaten to cut off half of its body.

  The rest of the bullet may take away other approaching hares.

  The countless wails of wild animals were covered by the rattling of machine guns.

  Not only Zhang Anshi’s arms were numb, but his whole body was also numb. In order to keep himself going, he let out an inspiring voice: “Yeah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah…”

   In a short time, hundreds of bullets were fired.

  Smoke was rising from the muzzle of the machine gun. Fortunately, there were eight or nine barrels, so… although the barrel was smoking, the barrel could still support it.

  At this time, Zhang Anshi said: “Zhan Ji, scoop up some water, and cool the barrel of the gun.”

   “Oh… oh…” Zhu Zhanji reacted.

  Zhang Anshi began to pull out the broken bullet chain, and began to replace it with a new bullet chain clip that had already been loaded with bullets.

   Just when everyone was still in shock, Zhang Anshi’s voice was first heard: “Yeah, yah, yah, yah…”

   Immediately afterwards, it started again.

   da da da da da…

  Everyone looked at Zhang Anshi in horror, and the machine gun that kept emitting fireworks.

  The wild animals began to commotion again.

  Countless wild animals are flying, and countless wild animal corpses are scattered across the field.

   Zhang Anshi got excited and shouted louder.

  At this moment, he is like a cold-faced rabbit killer.

  Zhu Di sucked in a breath of cold air. Even he felt that his calves were a little weak at this moment.

  Zhu Neng, Xu Huizu, and Qiu Fu also changed their faces, and their eyes could not conceal the shock.

  The **** who was going to report the number was already paralyzed by fright.

  The imperial guards were silent, but their eyes were about to pop out.

  Xu Jingchang wailed, and the other teenagers were even more frustrated. At this moment, where do they still have the half-divided, weak, and competitive heart? I just feel numb.

   da da da da…

  click…

   The wheel finally stopped turning.

   It should be stuck.

  The rattling sound just stopped.

  Zhang Anshi only felt that he was sweating profusely, panting heavily, although he hadn’t counted how many rabbits he had killed yet.

  However… Zhang Anshi is confident that he should be able to break the records of his predecessors, even the records of later generations, such as the record of a certain Emperor Kang who loves to kill rabbits, should have been broken.

   It is said that Kang killed 385 rabbits in one day, and Zhang Anshi felt that as long as he was given time, he could kill 3,800 rabbits a day.

   And at this time…

   Silence.

  The entire paddock was silent, and almost no one made a sound.

  Only the Adam’s apple rolled, and then made the sound of swallowing saliva.

The wild animals in the paddock are all dead, and occasionally some can still move, but now they seem to be lying on the ground because of the desire to survive, their eyes are narrowed, but their bodies seem to be frozen Stand still, play dead…

  In this eerie silence, Zhang Anshi said in a huffy voice: “Go and count, how many were killed.”
