Several bullets whistled through the woods. After hearing this, all the armored soldiers looked up to the sky in surprise.

"What's the sound? Is it a bird?" a soldier asked quietly.

"I've never heard this kind of bird call." Another soldier said.

"What is that?" The soldier who asked asked carefully recalled in his mind which beasts could make such a sound.

"Pfft." An armored soldier ten steps away behind him suddenly fell to the ground.

"Narbu." The armored soldier suddenly turned around, looked at him strangely for a while, and then softly called the other party's name.

"Nalb?" The armored soldier who fell on the ground still didn't respond after being called a second time.

The armored soldier who called him felt bad when he saw that the other party still didn't respond, so he turned around and ran over.

He found a large stream of blood slowly flowing out from under his companion, and then probed the other person's mouth and nose.

"Narb is dead!" he shouted as he turned his companion's body over with force. He saw a bloody hole the size of a finger on the other's back heart, and the blood flowed out from here.

The armored soldier suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhao Xin's position as if he was aware of it. Just as he was about to speak, he felt a cold feeling in his throat. He couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his neck. The whistling sound sounded again, and a sound began to come out of the armored soldier's mouth.

With blood dripping from his buttocks, he bowed his head weakly and fell to the ground, unable to stand up again.

Immediately afterwards, there was a "tacking" sound from the south of the group of armored soldiers. Several armored soldiers were horrified to see a burst of debris exploding from the big tree next to them, and then they saw something appearing on the big tree.

A small pit.

Just when a soldier was about to shout "witchcraft", he found that there were not many companions still standing around him.

The armored soldier, whose legs were trembling with fear brought by the whistling and silence, was about to turn around and run to find his horse, when a long arrow was shot from behind, hitting him in the middle.

The fallen armored soldier got up dizzy, and when he was about to continue running forward, a small man in a dark cotton robe turned out from behind a big tree more than ten steps away, with the helmet hanging on his head.

He was shaking, holding a strange iron object in his hands and pointing it at himself.

Two gunshots rang out, and the armored soldier immediately fell to the ground, and blood quickly flowed out from his body.

(According to the "Hunchun Deputy Commander's Yamen Manchu Archives", the Eight Banners Manchurian garrison officers and soldiers had very strict training requirements for bow and arrow skills. Because the old Manchu customs were mainly about bows and horses, in the early and mid-Qing Dynasty, the garrison officers and soldiers were required to have these two skills.

Skill level is particularly important.

Hunchun City has special martial arts performance halls and archery halls for regular drills, and large-scale reviews are held every spring and autumn.

The assessment requirements for bows and arrows are as follows: During the assessment, each soldier shoots five arrows at a target a hundred paces away. Those who can hit three or more arrows on the target are considered first-class, and those who hit two arrows are qualified. Ten soldiers form a team, and each team has seven qualified people.

If there are only five qualified people but three of them are first-class, the merits and demerits will be offset; if the number of qualified people reaches five and none of them are first-class or less than five are qualified, the officer of the squad will report to the Ministry of War for dismissal, and the soldiers will be strictly punished.

Punishment; if there is no improvement after one year, all officers and soldiers of the team will be dismissed and punished.)
