Chapter 864: The Waddling Duck
Xiao Yu was wearing a set of bronze armor.
The armor was very complicated to put on. First, put on the body armor, then the leg armor, the arm armor, then put on the breastplate, put on the protective military boots, and finally put on the helmet.
Gu Fei looked at Xiao Yu with sparkling eyes. Xiao Yu, who was wearing the armor, was handsome and majestic, just like the god of war she imagined.
Xiao Yu soon noticed Gu Fei's obsessed gaze. He was moved and was about to lower his head to kiss her. Zhuzi came over with a set of iron armor worn by soldiers. Xiao Yu coughed lightly, took the armor, and put it on Gu Fei. As soon as the heavy iron armor was put on, Gu Fei suddenly felt that he was shorter.
When all the clothes were put on and the helmet was put on, Gu Fei felt that she could not walk.
Xiao Yu couldn't help laughing when he looked at Gu Fei. Her little face was hidden in the helmet, only the lower half was exposed, and even her eyes were covered.
Gu Fei kept holding the helmet to prevent it from falling off.
Xiao Yu laughed for a while and took off his helmet, "I won't wear this one."
"I'll have someone measure your size and make two sets of light and sophisticated armor for you."
Gu Fei took a few steps clumsily, and Xiao Yu seemed to see a wobbly duck, and he couldn't help laughing.
Gu Fei turned around and gave him a reproachful look.
Xiao Yu put his arm on her shoulder, "Let's go to the training ground."
Gu Fei raised her arm with difficulty and shook his hand away. It was heavy enough, and she couldn't bear another mosquito, let alone an iron arm.
Xiao Yu laughed softly, his chest shaking slightly, "Do you want me to carry you?"
Gu Fei glared at him and walked out with big strides.
Big strides were just what she thought. In fact, wearing heavy armor, it was very inconvenient to move. Compared with Xiao Yu, who was tall and long-legged, she was just a short-legged person. Her step was less than half of Xiao Yu's.
Xiao Yu walked slowly with her patiently.
It took her two quarters of an hour to reach the training ground last night.
More than 5,000 horses were enclosed in a corner of the parade ground.
The soldiers on the parade ground were lining up to draw their bows, but they were not shooting arrows. It looked like they were testing their arm strength.
Gu Fei asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Yu smiled, "I plan to form an elite battalion and a cavalry battalion. Soldiers will be selected according to their arm strength. Those who can draw a one-stone bow will enter the cavalry battalion, and those who can draw a two-stone bow will enter the elite battalion. I want to build the elite battalion into heavy cavalry."
Gu Fei didn't quite understand what he heard, and asked Xiao Yu, "Then how many bows can you draw?"
Xiao Yu lowered his head and smiled at her, "You can draw a three-stone bow without internal strength."
Gu Fei looked at him with sparkling eyes, full of admiration. She remembered that a famous anti-Jin general in history could draw a three-stone bow.
Xiao Yu touched her head, leaned close to her and whispered, "Don't look at me like that..."
Being looked at with admiration by the beloved woman made his blood boil.
Gu Fei smiled, she looked away to see the soldiers drawing bows in the training ground, and suddenly, she saw Sanlang in the crowd.
Sanlang was wearing armor and standing in the team, and it seemed that he was also preparing to draw a bow to test his arm strength.
Sanlang had seen the girl a long time ago, but the girl only had eyes for the prince, which was a bit frustrating.
Seeing Gu Fei looking over here, he jumped up and waved to Gu Fei.
Gu Fei also waved to him excitedly. She remembered that Sanlang was strong when he was at home and ate a lot. Gu Fei once saw him lift Baoer, just like lifting a little chicken, easily. I don't know how many stones of bow he can pull.
