"Taizu Changquan" is a theft case of scientific and technological achievements of the Great Song Dynasty, and to this day, it should be returned to its original appearance.

Zhao Kuangyin has loved to fight since he was a child, and he is ruthless, but it can be said that he has rich practical experience and psychological quality; and he knows how to raid when he fights others, and he knows how to dodge when others fight, and he can be regarded as very talented in martial arts offensive and defensive techniques.

Zhao Hongyin has passed on some martial arts knowledge to Zhao Kuangyin since he was a child, and now he regards martial arts as the foundation of his official position, and he has worked hard, not only teaching his own martial arts, but also taking him around to find famous teachers for advice.

The official history and the wild history all record that Zhao Kuangyin's martial arts are superb, but they do not say who they inherited, as if they were born with God; and say that Zhao Kuangyin created the "Taizu Long Fist" and is a generation of grandmasters, which is all a pat on the emperor's ass.

The martial arts practiced by Zhao Kuangyin come from the family tradition, and his family martial arts come from Huaquan.

Huaquan was created by Cai Mao, a skilled fighter in the Tang Kaiyuan period. Cai Mao is a ranger near Huashan, fine skills, good at swordsmanship, scattered in Chang'an, often draw a sword to practice martial arts, in the local with his skills to pass on. His descendants, Cai Tai and Cai Gang, were forced by life to participate in the "terrace wrestling" in Zhudao Prefecture or Kyoto. At that time, Zhao Kuangyin's ancestor Zhao Hao, who was the commander of Kyoto County at the time, saw that the Cai family's martial arts paid attention to actual combat, offensive and defensive fighting, rising like the wind, hitting like electricity, leading the front hand, chasing after the back hand, and exchanging the two hands to destroy in one go. Flexible footwork, rigidity and softness, both virtual and real, punching and stepping, long and short support, strong explosiveness. Picking, chopping, blocking, sealing, closing, winding, sweeping, kicking, playing, flirting, hooking, bumping, tripping, entanglement, skill, footwork is exquisite. So he invited him to the house and gave it to his descendants. Zhao Kuangyin's great-grandfather, Zhao Ting, was engaged in the town of Lifan, and was a tired official and a member of the imperial history; Zhao Kuangyin's grandfather, Zhao Jing, was the assassin of Liying, Ji, and Zhuo; Zu Chang, and the Later Tang Dynasty were the envoys of Pingzhou, You, and Jikentian; all of them were further instructed by Cai Mao's descendants, and constantly absorbed the essence of Cai's martial arts. Because Cai Mao's descendants are all civilians, the Zhao family bullied his lowly status, so he did not respect his master, regarded his skills as a family heirloom, and named Changquan to publicize it to others, which was equivalent to preemptively "registering". The descendants of the Cai family did not become officials, their status was low, and they only regarded boxing as a technique to fill their stomachs, and even the name of the boxing was not determined, until Cai Bangzhi, a native of Jining, Shandong Province during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, took the ancient philosophy of "Sanhua (essence, qi, and spirit) as the theoretical basis of boxing", and wrote the "Secret Spectrum of Huaquan", which set the name for the Cai family's boxing, and was "registered" many years later than the Zhao family's "long boxing".

The "History of the Song Dynasty", which made all the effort to shoot the emperor's sycophants, has no record of Zhao Kuangyin's martial arts inheritance, and Zhao Kuangyin's martial arts have been accomplished when he was young and he is in unison, according to which, it can be shown that his martial arts should be passed on by his father Zhao Hongyin. Zhao Jiaquan is not only an increase or decrease in the moves, but its basic essence also comes from Cai Jiahua's boxing.

Regardless of Cai Jiahua's boxing, the long fist should also be inherited and developed by Zhao Kuangyin's ancestors for several generations, and it should be called "Zhao's long fist", and later generations will call it "Taizu Changquan", which is said to be created by Zhao Kuangyin, which not only does not conform to the true feelings of history, but also makes Zhao Kuangyin suspected of bullying his ancestors. This special horse's fart that made the emperor ride on the head of the ancestor is really hateful and lamentable!

Some people interpret that "Taizu's long fist originates from the true inheritance of the legacy of Song Taizu's training soldiers", which is also nonsense.

Zhao Kuangyin was already "inspected in front of the palace" in the later Zhou Dynasty, equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the field army in later generations, and he was busy usurping the throne of Chai Rong all day long, so how could he become an instructor? It is even more impossible for the emperor to train soldiers. Besides, his martial arts are not among the top few generals in the Later Zhou and Great Song Dynasty, and it is impossible to use his boxing skills as a teaching material for training soldiers.

Therefore, the so-called "Taizu Changquan" that is now circulating is not only not the Zhao family's boxing method, nor the Cai Jiahua boxing method inherited and innovated by the Zhao family, but also has nothing to do with Zhao Kuangyin. As for the name "Taizu Changquan", it is like the head of the enterprise in later generations, technological innovation, although it is the result of technical personnel who have tackled key problems all night, because the head is the nominal "technical revolution team leader", the signature should still be in front. is also like the leader's speech report, which is the hard work of the writing team, although the head has not started to write, he still reads white characters on the stage, and he must also sign it and circulate it in the world. Or there was no name at all at that time, and later generations made this boxing sign loud, like many wines and dishes, it was labeled as "palace royal".

"Taizu Changquan" should be a theft case of scientific and technological achievements in the Great Song Dynasty, and to this day, it should be returned to its original face of "collective creation and continuous development by all soldiers". This will be "Taizu Changquan" restored to "the essence of the boxing methods of the Later Zhou Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty", and the culmination of traditional Chinese martial arts, which is really praised, not belittled, and I hope that readers who worship Zhao Kuangyin the Great will restrain their resentment and do not make a lawsuit.

Zhao Kuangyin has no interest in reading, and he is willing to work martial arts. Zhao Hongyin carefully taught, and within a few years, Zhao Kuangyin's martial arts had a certain attainment.

Zhao Hongyin was overjoyed, and worked even harder for Zhao Kuangyin's military improvement.

It is recorded in the history books that Zhao Kuangyin made good use of the weapon he carried with him was the "Panlong Stick", and later generations of literati thought it was "the stick of the coiling dragon", and in novels, films and televisions, he was asked to carry an iron rod carved with a dragon to walk the rivers and lakes. In addition, the literal speculation is not only far from the real history, but also does not conform to Zhao Kuangyin's temperament and style.

Just imagine, let the dashing future grandfather be like a coolie, carrying a big iron bar weighing dozens of pounds all day long, walking the rivers and lakes, swaggering in the streets, and meeting relatives and friends, how can it be convenient to move, and how can the demeanor be behaved? Doesn't it look vulgar and barbaric, and as ridiculous as a fool?

In fact, Zhao Kuangyin's Panlong stick is a brocade silk woven luan belt, with four gold rings strung into a chain, which is a rare weapon carefully developed by Zhao Kuangyin's father, Zhao Hongyin, to the ordnance supervisor technician according to the characteristics of the soft whip that is easy to carry and the stick's lethality is strong.

Zhao Hongyin took its characteristics of being soft and hard, stretching and contracting, easy to hide, and easy to carry, and took the meaning of Panlong's "coiled and subdued", "observed in the sky, and descended to the earth, and Panman Kyushu", named "Panlong Stick", and gave it to his beloved son, so that he could carry his body with him. And take the essence of its nine-section whip and plum blossom stick, and combine it into a set of "dragon stick" stick method.

There are 36 moves of the Panlong Stick, each of which is the essence of martial arts, which are:

The yellow dragon stretches, the dragon swings its tail, the spirit snake swims in the water, the swallow drills the sky, the crane pecks, the Taigong fishes, the single whip hits the stone, pushes the boat along the water, the east blocks the west and kills, the boy worships the Buddha, the goldfish closes, the white ape enters the hole, the golden rooster shakes the feather, the leopard jumps the stream, shrinks the snake, Nezha explores the sea, the tiger turns back, the dead tree coils the roots, the eagle pierces the curtain, reverses the world, the praying mantis flutters the cicada, wraps the head and stops the waist, the inverted whirlwind, the green dragon probes the claw, the swallow flutters the finch, the little ghost hooks the legs, the yaksha out of the water, the grass is looking for the snake, the lion shakes his head, the python turns over, the meteor catches the moon, the phoenix soars for nine days, Su Qin carries the sword, The magpie kicks the branches, the wheels fly, and the stick returns.

This dragon stick is usually tied around the waist, it is a belt, when used, press the lock buckle, pull it out from the waist, and shake it in the wind, it becomes a stick.

The dragon stick dances like a wheel, beats out, like a steel rod, and shakes the hand after use, and the stick is still a belt. It can be described as "hiding like a mouse, releasing like a tiger, harvesting like an insect, and coming out like a dragon", which is not only convenient to carry, but also infinitely powerful.

Zhao Hongyin loved his son very much, carefully developed this exquisite weapon to protect his son, and wrote a poem:

"This treasure is both rigid and soft, just like a garment.

Protective girdle around the waist, infinite changes and mysteries.

The light flashed instantly, and the submachine sword was difficult to grasp.

Give his son to help the Heavenly Empire, and protect the country forever. ”

Zhao Hongyin hoped that Zhao Kuangyin would use this weapon to fight and make meritorious contributions to become a high-ranking official, but he would never have expected that he would use this stick to provoke a monstrous disaster that punished the nine clans.
