Volume 1 The Yellow Turban Rebellion Chapter 144 Ancient Fist

After staying in Beijing for only four or five days, Guo Bin heard the news that because of Dong Zhuo's repeated defeats, the morale of the officers and soldiers was greatly reduced, and he was removed from his post as the general of Zuo Zhonglang, and he was still appointed as the Taishou of Hedong. As the commander of the Southern Route Army, Huangfu Song broke through the 200,000 Yellow Turban Army, and made outstanding contributions, and together with Zhu Jun, he took advantage of the victory to suppress the Yellow Turban Army in Runan and Chenguo areas, and pacified the land of the three counties.

At this point, the main force of the Yellow Turban Army on the South Road was lost, and the Son of Heaven issued an edict ordering Huangfu Song to lead his troops to Guangzong to lead the important task of exterminating the main force of Zhang Jiao, while Zhu Jun continued to expand the results of the battle and exterminate the remnants of the Yellow Turban thieves entrenched in Nanyang and Wancheng.

Immediately, Guo Bin received an edict from the Son of Heaven: "Immediately lead the Guangzong of the department, obey the order of Zuo Zhonglang's general Huangfu Song, and strive to exterminate the main force of the Yellow Turban entrenched there, there must be no mistake." ”

After receiving this edict, Guo Bin hurriedly went to the Yueqi camp outside the city, gathered his subordinates, and galloped to Guangzong.

As for the matter of the school uniform, Guo Bin has reached an agreement with Cai Yong, and the plan has also been approved by the Son of Heaven. Its shape is similar to that of later generations.

Its style is: the jacket is a standing lapel, with a wind button; Three pieces on the body, front placket, 5 open buttons; 4 patch pockets, each with a bag cover and 1 open buckle, the upper is a flat patch bag, the lower is a tiger bag, the left and right are symmetrical; There is a pen opening of about three centimeters on the right stitch of the upper left pocket cover. This shape is no different from the modern tunic suit.

Not only that, but its styling design is also quite connotative.

The four pockets of the predecessor represent the four dimensions of the country (courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame), and the cover of the bag is an inverted pen holder, which means to govern the country with literature. The collar is set to be closed with lapels, showing the concept of rigorous governance.

In addition, the color of this costume is dark, and the fabric is the same woolen tweed as the most popular standard military uniform in Yangzhai clothing. The shape of this costume is balanced and symmetrical, the appearance is beautiful and generous, it is elegant and stable, easy to move, free to move, warm and protective body, and can be used as a dress or casual wear.

When Guo Bin and the others went to mourn Wei Zhongdao, they were wearing black tunics. When Guo Bin appeared at Wei Zhongdao's funeral with Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, everyone was very surprised to see the strange costumes they were wearing, as if they were in the same vein as Yang Zhai's standard military uniforms, but they had a different way. Originally, the clothing at this time was beautiful with wide robes and large sleeves, which was evolved under the Confucian idea of "serving the crown of the Zhou" and formed a complete crown and clothing system in the Han Dynasty.

However, although this kind of clothing looks magnificent, rich and beautiful, there are many inconveniences. The orthodox dress is naturally graceful and luxurious, with wide sleeves and wide robes, and it comes in accordance with the rules in a proper manner, because this is to worship ghosts and gods or face ancestors, and it is always better to look more and more solemn. In real life, even the aristocracy gave full play to their subjective initiative, gradually narrowing the sleeves and reducing the hem of their clothes to the extent that it would not affect walking.

However, this is still extremely inconvenient.

The hem of a wide garment is not suitable for exercise, and people will have difficulty moving when they wear it, and wide sleeves are more likely to get dirty. When eating or writing, the wide sleeves will always accidentally stain the soup or ink. In view of the fact that the dyes at this time are mostly extracted from plants or minerals, the dyeing technology is not perfect, the color fastness is not high, if it is cleaned, it will cause the clothes to fade, and the faded clothes will no longer be loved by the nobles.

Therefore, at this time, whether it is a gorgeous costume made of Shu brocade or Linzi precious silk silk, it is a one-time product. It does not mean that you will wear it once and throw it away, but you should not wash it with water, and if it gets stained with oil, you cannot wear it again.

This kind of narrow-sleeved clothing eliminates the risk of stains on the sleeves, which is undoubtedly extremely convenient for students who have been reading and writing for many years. In addition, there is a pen insert in the upper left pocket, so you can put the pencil newly developed in Yangzhai County into a bamboo pen bag and insert it inside. This is not only very convenient and ornamental, convenient to write everywhere at all times, but also a sign to show your identity as a reader.

This bamboo pencil bag is made of bamboo of uniform thickness, with a pencil placed inside and a wooden plug on top to prevent the pencil from falling out. In this way, it will not stain the clothes and will not fall out easily, and it is also very beautiful.

Not only that, because Yangzhai County's standard military uniforms take the high-end route, and this kind of school uniforms are only supplied by students, so this kind of hunger marketing method is easier to win people's recognition. Changing customs has always been top-down, white-collar workers in companies imitate the attire of Internet celebrities or celebrities, leading cadres at all levels imitate the attire of the central leadership, and you will never see anyone imitate the pickled and sloppy clothes of an old farmer. Of course, with the exception of Paris Fashion Week, which is the focus of the "superior people", the brain circuits of designers are always different from those of us ordinary people.

Therefore, when the school uniforms were distributed to the students, many of the students who had gone to the Wei Mansion that day and saw Guo Bin mourning Wei Zhongdao were extremely excited and agreed.

Soon, Tai school uniforms were all the rage as "suitable for hygiene, easy to move, and strong for viewing", and poor scholars in many places were also proud to have a new set of "Confucian clothes".

However, now that this matter has been decided, Yu Guo Bin will not pay too much attention to it, and he has more important things to do.

What made him often wander on the way to Guangzong on horseback was not only the continuous flow of battlefield information from the front line, but also a letter sent by Hua Tuo before leaving Beijing.

What Hua Tuo wrote in the letter is a school of boxing outside the city of Guangzong, and the boxing method it preaches is called plum blossom boxing.

Hua Tuo said: "There are more than 100 fist factions in the world, but there is no trace of its source. Gai scholars focus on one part of the body, and show their strengths to create another one, and the door is derived. So far, those who can still maintain their original state are only plum blossom fist ears. ”

This sentence shocked Guo Bin the most. It means that there are more than 100 factions of boxing today, but the roots are the same source. Because of their different understandings and different understandings, people who have learned boxing in the past dynasties have focused on a part of a boxing method, studied it intensively, showed their strengths, and created another one, so the sect was born. So far, the only one that can maintain the original state of boxing and every aspect still exists is plum blossom boxing.

If you think about it, it makes sense. The so-called dragon gives birth to nine sons, each of which is different, let alone learning? Different people have different emphases of the same sentence, and their understanding of this sentence is also different. The boxing master seems to make a move casually, and some people put it in their hearts, and they may realize a different connotation.

In later generations, Tai Chi is an example. Nowadays, there are many schools such as Chen, Yang, Wu, Sun, Wu, etc., and the holy place of Taijiquan recognized by the world is the birthplace of Chen's Taiji, Chenjiagou.

Which of the many schools of Taijiquan is not the result of the intensive study and hard inheritance of many martial arts masters such as Yang Luchan, Wu Jianquan, Sun Lutang, Wu Yuxiang, etc.? It is precisely because of the different comprehensions of the great masters in martial arts that the Taijiquan method of various schools has been produced.

Some of the world's boxing techniques pay more attention to the maintenance of internal qi, and the internal boxing method has been formed; Some pay more attention to the cooperation with footwork, so they are more agile and changeable, and their moves are more dexterous; Some secretly learned kung fu for a few days, but did not get the essence of internal boxing, so they blindly made great moves and was very ruthless, and became the foreign boxing method of the evil sect; And it is possible that the foreign boxing method has learned a few hands of the internal boxing method by chance. In short, Chinese martial arts have lasted for thousands of years and evolved into today's colorful martial arts schools, and I don't know how many generations of martial arts masters have studied and innovated.

However, Guo Bin had also heard of the name of Plum Blossom Boxing in his previous life, Guangzong County is the hometown of Plum Blossom Boxing in Hebei Province, and the Plum Blossom Boxing in Xingtai, Hebei Province has also been included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage. In other words, this kind of boxing has been passed down for more than 2,000 years, which is longer than the famous Taijiquan.

In the letter, Hua Tuo told Guo Bin that more than ten miles north of Guangzong City, there is a place called Pingxiang Houmazhuang, where there is a great master of Plum Blossom Boxing, named Guan Fenglong, who is the only surviving one of the seven great masters of Plum Blossom Boxing. At that time, Hua Tuo was fortunate to be taught by Mr. Dong Fali, the master of plum blossom boxing and the head of Huashan Dao, so that he has today's achievements.

At that time, there were seven great masters in Plum Blossom Boxing, namely Dong Fali, Guan Fenglong, Yu Jinhai, Yang Tianfeng, Jiang Haiqing, Liu Jinyu, and Zhang Yufeng. Later, the six grandmasters passed away one after another, leaving only one Guan Fenglong. The seven ancestors wrote a boxing book, a boxing book, and a boxing rule to be passed on to future generations, and the book was called "Seven Star Flower Boxing". Hua Tuo's Five Fowl Opera is based on the inner foundation of this set of plum blossom boxing, and is created on the basis of the "Two Fowl Opera" (Xiong Jing Bird Shen) of "Zhuangzi".

According to Hua Tuo, Guan Fenglong taught boxing in Houmazhuang in Pingxiang, and there were more than 100 disciples.

Guo Bin couldn't have imagined that a martial artist who lived in seclusion in the countryside to teach boxing, no matter how good his kung fu was, how could he have such a great effect on obtaining Guangzong City?

However, in view of his trust and respect for Hua Tuo, Guo Bin still arrived at Guangzong's camp on the first day of the new year, went to Huangfu Song to order a meal, and then took Guan Zhang and the others to Pingxiang. Guo Bin rode the horse left by Tong Yuan at the beginning, it was pitch black, and the horses were very good, and Guan and Zhang were riding the best Wuhuan war horses, Guan Yu rode a yellow-maned horse, and Zhang Fei rode a black war horse. The three fast horses trampled on the sound of the cicadas in midsummer, galloped all the way to Pingxiang, and arrived in less than half an hour.

I saw that this is a very secluded small village, as if the great drought in the world has not been affected, people live peacefully, the rhythm is slow, and the countryside often sees old people or children practicing boxing. The sound of cicadas chirping, mixed with the sound of chickens and dogs barking, dotted the place into a paradise-like place, and only the three of them were amazed.

Just looking at the folk customs and environment here, Guo Bin became a little more firm in what Hua Tuo said in his letter.
