Chapter 30: Knocking
Tengyuan's arrival made the Qingshi Palace fall into a hurry. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
There was no big feast or any reception ceremony. Teng Yuan finally came to the Qingshi Palace, how could he not take advantage of this opportunity to let Teng Yuan train the guards of the personal guards, the king's guard regiment and the guards of the Qingshi Palace?
The pro-guards are the top combat power of the Bluestone Palace, and they are all above the top, except for Tal, they are not convinced by anyone in terms of martial arts. The situation of the King's Guards and the Bluestone Palace guards is also similar, and the training volume of the Bluestone Palace Guards and the King's Guards is almost the same, but the equipment of the Bluestone Palace guards is relatively poor, and they are not as good as the King's Guards in terms of combat power.
Pride can make people complacent, and Mel wants them to know that there are people outside of men, and there are heavens outside of heaven. As long as they saw Tengyuan's unrivaled martial arts, the pride in their hearts would be shattered like a glass falling from a height.
It's a pity that Teng Yuan came to Qingshi Palace alone and didn't bring an entourage. If Teng Yuan brought the elite warriors he had personally trained and let them fight against Maier's people, the effect would be even more obvious. When he was in Chunshan Castle, Maier fought with Tengyuan's elite samurai, and he was subdued by the opponent after only two moves.
It is much easier to defeat the opponent than to subdue the opponent, as soon as the elite samurai made a move, Maier knew that the difference in strength between the two sides was huge, and he only resisted two moves with all his strength, and then he was easily subdued by the opponent. Maier could feel that the other party had deliberately conceded because he was concerned about his identity, but even then he still lost badly.
The strength of martial arts is nothing more than three points.
One is physique. Human beings can strengthen their bones and muscles through exercise, so as to enhance the body's ability to resist blows, endurance and explosiveness. A specially trained person can smash a 10-centimeter-thick stone slab with his body alone, and almost no injury is guaranteed to be caused by a solid iron rod hitting a non-vital part, and he can be able to break or bend a sword with his bare hands while carrying a weight of 40 kilograms. In the face of such an opponent, the probability of an ordinary person winning in hand-to-hand combat conditions is very low.
The strength is related to the physique, the better the physique, the greater the strength, the greater the strength, the stronger the attack. However, greater strength is not always better, which brings us to the second point of martial arts, skill. It is impossible for a strong man who only knows how to go on a rampage to win against an ordinary person who fights with skill.
When to release power, when to receive, how much to receive, how much to receive, all pay attention to. If you punch out, if you make a false move, the power can't be too great, otherwise you won't be able to take it back, and then it will be self-defeating and the opponent will seize the opportunity. But if the strength is too small, people will see at a glance that your punch is cheating people, and your routine will be useless, so it is better not to make a move.
Martial arts are ostensibly fighting the body, but in fact they are fighting the heart, in the duel between masters, every move and formula is a temptation and calculation, and those who want to win or lose by physical strength alone may not know how they lost in this duel.
Some people say that the world's martial arts are only fast and unbreakable, and speed, as the third point, is an important decisive condition in martial arts. People often refer to speed in two aspects, namely the speed of action (that is, the speed of the move) and the speed of reaction. The former can be determined by strength and physique, while the latter is related to nerve response, which cannot be improved by exercising physique alone.
There may be many people who hear the bridge of the martial arts master using chopsticks to pick flies when listening to books. In fact, it is not difficult to use chopsticks to catch flies, ordinary people can do it after training, which is not a powerful thing in martial arts. It is no exaggeration to say that many martial artists move much faster than the speed of flies, and ordinary people can't react at all.
Before human beings act, they often have to obtain external information by seeing, hearing, smelling, touching, etc., and this information is processed and judged by the human brain, and human beings will act according to the results obtained. If an arrow is fired at you from 30 meters away, if you can't catch it visually, you won't dodge. In this case, no matter how fast you move, you will definitely die.
Therefore, before training reaction speed, martial artists usually have to train their senses first. In addition to the well-known five senses, a considerable number of martial artists believe in the sixth sense, which is intuition. When human beings encounter danger, they often do things that go against the logic of normal people's thinking, such as suddenly squatting or avoiding in a safe environment. In the eyes of ordinary people, this kind of behavior is meaningless, but many people rely on this meaningless behavior to avoid sudden danger. Warriors also use their intuition to perceive danger and dodge their opponents' attacks in advance.
Some people may have heard of the phrase "martial arts wizard" or something like that. In fact, this kind of people who are naturally suitable for martial arts practice exist in reality, and they are born with excellent physical fitness and reaction speed, which makes them have a higher starting point when practicing martial arts, and they don't have to work as hard as ordinary people.
In fact, not only in martial arts, but also in all walks of life, there are such geniuses - people prefer to use the word "genius" to call them "genius". They can easily become outstanding in their field, and what others find difficult is easier for them than eating and drinking. A lot of people will cry out about unfairness, but it makes no sense. Instead of complaining like this, it is better to seize the time and continue to work hard, so that you will not be left further behind by the geniuses.
Without further ado, let's get back to business.
Having said all this, some people may ask: If the warriors are so powerful, why haven't they been able to dominate the world?
It is true that from ancient times to the present, the vast majority of warriors have been used as spearmen by the rulers, and few people have been able to become rulers. This is because practicing martial arts itself wastes a lot of time and energy, and it is likely that you will not be able to achieve anything by focusing on two things. Only geniuses can have the leisure to do other things while practicing martial arts, and geniuses are rare, and most of them have different values from ordinary people, they don't like to pursue fame and fortune, and they just want to do what they like.
The same is true in other fields, where most of the technocrats are dominant, and few are the rulers, and that's why.
Moreover, although the warrior is strong, it is only reflected in the individual. When human beings develop to a certain level, the scale of war will increase, so that individual combat power will not be able to control the situation of war, and the development of military science and technology will also lead to this result.
Even a powerful warrior like Teng Yuan is flesh and blood, and when facing five hundred muskets, he has to be out of range. There are only a handful of martial artists as strong as Tengyuan in the New World, and it will take decades of hard work for them to achieve today's achievements. In contrast, it is much less difficult to produce 500 muskets and train 500 musketeers.
Of course, this does not mean that individual combat power is useless. The current production of muskets in the New World is not very high, and cold weapons are still conventional weapons. In the era of cold weapons, the combat effectiveness of a unit depended not on the strongest or the weakest, but on the group with the largest number of people. As a result, strong and experienced veterans are often grouped together to break through enemy formations or demoralize enemy troops by killing a large number of enemy soldiers.
Therefore, it is still very necessary to improve the personal strength of the soldiers. The personal guards, the king's guards, and the bluestone palace guards are all Maier's descendants, and the stronger the combat effectiveness of these three forces, the more reassuring Maier will be.
Tengyuan has been approving documents in the rear for so long, and his hands have long been itching. When he was in the Kingdom of Tairong, he didn't even have time to fight with elite warriors, and when he arrived in Byron City, he had to keep a low profile, and he couldn't learn martial arts from others. Now that Maier had given him such a good opportunity, how could he not cherish it?
In just one morning's effort, the personal guards, the king's guard regiment, and the guards of the Qingshi Palace were abused all over again. Tengyuan and they are not one-on-one, and the minimum is one to ten. Tengyuan's physical fitness is too much ahead of these juniors, whether it is skill or speed, they can't compare, and most of them didn't even react to what happened, and they were put to the ground by Tengyuan.
The battles in the morning were all bare-handed, and Teng Yuan felt that it was not enjoyable and wanted to use weapons to make moves. As soon as these words came out, the personal guards, the king's guard regiment, and the guards of the Qingshi Palace were all intimidated. Generally speaking, you can't fight empty-handed, and you can't beat it with weapons. The sword has no eyes, and with Tengyuan's strength, his feet slip and his hands shake, and a human head may fall to the ground.
Seeing that Myer's people were all intimidated, Teng Yuan asked them if an assassin who was stronger than himself came to assassinate Myr, would they watch the other party kill Myer?
Teng Yuan's words greatly stimulated the group of young people, and before he could say anything more, Taal stood up. Teng Yuan borrowed a sword from the guards of the Bluestone Palace and fought one-on-one with Thal, but Tal was defeated before he could make a move.
"If I were really an assassin, Your Majesty would have died no less than ten times. You are worthy to protect Your Majesty? I think I'd better transfer my elite samurai! ”
Tal also fought with Tengyuan's elite samurai, at that time he was not injured well, the other party did not fight him seriously, and he was very enthusiastic to point out his knowledge of martial arts, no one lost and no one won. For Tengyuan's elite warriors, Tal was convinced. But he was very unwilling, and he also wanted to train such a strong warrior, so that Myer's safety would be more guaranteed.
But Tal was not a professional martial artist after all, and most of the martial arts he learned from Teng Yuan were only scratching the surface. It's not that Teng Yuan and his soldiers didn't want to teach him high-end martial arts, the foundation of Tal at that time was so poor that even if he taught him, he couldn't understand it. Even with these superficial skills, it took Taal more than a year to learn them.
The new rifle that Mel brought back from the Tajon Elf Colony gave Tal a sense of slackness. The appearance of this powerful weapon made him feel that martial arts had become dispensable, making him content with the status quo, no longer self-improvement, and no longer wanting to train powerful warriors. In fact, Maier had already been assassinated six times in the Bluestone Palace, and the Assassins were all very good and dead, but they were all sieveed by the new rifles, and none of them escaped.
It is worth mentioning that the total number of Assassins was sixteen, and they all used the captured special passes to infiltrate the city of Byrons and then managed to infiltrate the Bluestone Palace. Three of the Special Passes were sold by Danyunha's men, and the remaining thirteen were given to the Assassins by the merchant community of Rimi City. The Assassins had destroyed all the things that might reveal their identities before they could go on a mission, including the Special Pass, so Maier had always assumed that the Assassins had come from the other side of the forest.
Today's trick with Tengyuan completely changed his opinion. If you were on the battlefield, as long as you gave Tal a thousand new rifles and enough ammunition, even ten Tengyuan would not be able to get close to Meier's body. But if the battlefield was replaced by the Bluestone Palace, the situation would be completely different.
Tengyuan's speed was so fast that Tal could barely see what he had done, and he didn't have time to react. There are too many things that can be used as cover in the Bluestone Palace, and as long as Tengyuan moves, it will be difficult to hit the target even with a new rifle. As long as Tengyuan gets close to the riflemen, the riflemen are finished.
If Teng Yuan was an Assassin, the idea of using a new rifle to protect Maier would be unrealistic. Riflemen can buy time for Maier at most, but for an assassin of Tengyuan's level, as long as they are alive, they can come and assassinate Maier at any time. Therefore, the defenders must aim to kill the Assassins, otherwise Mair's safety cannot be guaranteed.
That afternoon, Meier's people were abused by Tengyuan again with weapons. After this, Tal begged Tengyuan to train them, and Tengyuan prepared to return to Yaolin City after the New Year, and when he had time to train them, he agreed to Tár's request.
Both the guards and the guards of the Qingshi Palace had to be on duty, and they could only come in batches to receive training from Tengyuan. The King's Guard is idle and can be trained all the time. Teng Yuan arranged a large number of inhumane training programs for those who participated in the training, and said that these programs were only the foundation for his elite samurai.
The soldiers secretly complained, but they still gritted their teeth and carried out Tengyuan's training plan. Teng Yuan is not lying, these projects are indeed just the foundation for his elite samurai. But the elite warriors were the elite selected from his 30,000 elite soldiers, and they trained more than five times as many as the elite soldiers, and the elite soldiers trained more than three times as much as the regular army of the Kingdom of Byrons.
Even if Tengyuan used the basic version for the soldiers, their training volume was more than six times that of the regular army, and more than three times their daily training volume, so it was strange that they could afford it.
