Forty-two will be heart
"Qiang" Xiahoudun pulled out the ring-headed knife on his waist, and said lightly: "Yuan let Shurong horses for half his life, that is, he can play a few knives, whether it is a long-handled horse chopping knife used in horse warfare, or a ring-headed knife used in foot combat, its use method is much the same. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After speaking, Xiahoudun held the hilt of the knife with both hands and waved it, each time it brought out the sound of whirring wind, and the strength was heavy, and the distance between the swings would not exceed one meter, only to hear him say while waving: "When you are on the battlefield and facing several halberds poking at you at the same time, don't try to block it with the knife in your hand, but judge from the speed of the halberd which one is the weakest among the several people who attack you, and then use the strongest part of your armor to crash into that person's halberd!" After speaking, he used the soles of his feet on one side of his body to make a shoulder collision posture and rushed forward about three meters.
"Whew" This rush speed is extremely fast, Cao Zhang only felt that Xiahoudun seemed to pass in a flash, and then Xiahoudun made a chopping action, and the "brush" ring head knife was still a foot away from the ground and stopped, this series of actions can be called fast as thunder, steady as a mountain.
After that, Xiahoudun stood up straight and patted his shoulder with his hand and said: "Whether it is the bright light armor or the black light armor, the strongest place is to swallow the shoulder, use the force of a collision to break the weakest point, and then kill the enemy, you can win a small space in the battlefield, and at this time, your personal follower, the deputy general will follow you like a sharp knife, inserting into the enemy!" ”
Cao Zhang's mouth suddenly opened when he heard it, it turned out that the battlefield was about real hard fighting, this is not a contest of pure strength, but a contest of explosive power, on the battlefield must use the most effective way to give people the most deadly blow, the kind of martial arts novel in the confusion of the enemy, false tricks or something, it does not work on the battlefield, and armor is a key to life and death, two armor must be stronger than leather armor, bright light armor and black light armor must be stronger than two armor, strong armor is not only a tool to save life, but also a weapon to defeat the enemy.
Then Xiahoudun talked about the weaknesses of various armors in the Han Dynasty, so that Cao Zhang could effectively hit the enemy on the battlefield in the future, in addition to the Mingguang armor, black light armor and Liangdang armor that Cao Zhang had seen, there was also a kind of armor called ring lock armor, this armor was made of iron wire or iron ring buckle to form a garment, each ring and the other four rings were buckled, shaped like a net lock, so it was also commonly known as chain mail.
Although this armor does not have the same high-strength defense as the bright light armor and the black light armor, it is lightweight and can be worn close to the body to wear a coat and robe, because the production process is complicated and impractical, so it is not popularized in the army.
However, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, many famous nobles like to come to such a set, because it is very light, the dress is not pressing, suitable for some sons and brothers who are not high in force and want to go to the battlefield to wear, after all, if you want to wear a set of bright light armor or black light armor, you still need a certain amount of strength, but some people will prepare a set of close-fitting clothes to prevent others from stabbing themselves when going to the banquet.
In Xiahoudun's words, the best way to meet a person wearing this kind of ring lock armor is to slash it down, even his armor is to break it together, and the two armors are to split the neck, thighs and arms, and the bright light armor and the black light armor are also the first to split the neck, and if you can't split it, you will cut the thigh, or pick the face door.
After that, Xiahoudun demonstrated a variety of chopping and provoking movements, which were basically simple and practical, without too many fancy, and said after the demonstration: "That's what I know, you can ask Zihe for horse fighting, and you can ask for advice on the skill of controlling strings." ”
Zihe is Cao Cao's tiger and leopard rider Cao Chun, Miaocai is Yingchuan Taishou Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan's younger brother, Cao Zhang said: "Zhang'er knows. ”
"Yes." Xiahoudun withdrew the ring head knife and said, "Zhang'er, I have one more thing to tell you. ”
"Uncle Yuanrang, please speak." Cao Zhang's ears were listening.
"Zhang'er, do you know what is the most important thing for a general?" Xiahoudun asked.
"The Art of War? Martial art? Or prestige? Cao Zhang wasn't sure.
Xiahoudun smiled and said, "Does Zhang'er still remember the rebellion of Zhang Miao and Lu Bu? ”
Hearing this, Cao Zhang subconsciously glanced at Xiahoudun's left eye blocked with a black cloth, this was when Lu Bu occupied Puyang, Cao Cao led his troops back from Xuzhou, and was injured by a stray arrow when he followed Cao Cao and Lu Bu to fight, no one dared to mention this matter in front of him, and now Xiahoudun mentioned it himself, Cao Zhang's heart was strange, and he replied: "Remember." ”
Xiahoudun said: "In fact, before Brother Meng De returned from Xuzhou, when I camped outside Puyang to confront Lu Bu, my personal guards were bought by Lu Bu and kidnapped me."
"Huh?" Cao Zhang was taken aback, he had never heard of this.
"At that time, the rebels wanted to take me as a hostage and let my subordinate sergeants surrender, otherwise they would kill me, but in fact, my adjutant Han Hao had already led the sergeants to surround the rebels and me." Xiahoudun said while reminiscing.
"And then?" Cao Zhang asked.
"Later, I didn't say a word, because I wouldn't let Brother Meng De's foundation be ruined in my hands, and if my sergeants surrendered at that time, then Lu Bu could directly kill Juancheng, where the grain was stored, and the disparity between the strength of the enemy and us was huge, and it would inevitably fall." Xiahoudun paused and continued: "At that time, my deputy general Han Hao bowed to me, wept and shouted, 'General is not strange, Hao can only attack him according to military law!'" Then the order was given to attack, and the rebels surrendered in fear. ”
"Uncle Yuan Rang and that General Han are both good men." Cao Zhang praised.
"This is what I want to tell you, as a general, you must first have the heart of a general, that is, you must focus on the overall situation, personal life and death, or the life and death of the robe, all belong to the stubble, for the general! There must be the courage of a strong man to break his wrist! Unstoppable! ”
After hearing this, Cao Zhang'er said respectfully: "Zhang'er has been taught. There is no doubt that Xiahoudun's words benefited him a lot, if Han Hao or Xiahoudun chose to surrender at that time, then the foundation of the Cao family would be destroyed, and without the support of grain and grass, Cao Cao's return to Yanzhou would be just looking for death.
It is no wonder that Cao Cao promulgated a new military law after the Yanzhou Rebellion, that is, attacking hostages does not have to be subject to hostage, no matter what position the hostages hold, they are treated equally, Xiahoudun can win Cao Cao's trust must be because of his own perseverance and loyalty, as well as the ability of his royal subordinates, even his deputy general Han Hao has such courage, I have to say that the quality of the sergeants under Xiahoudun is very high.
"Alright, that's all for today, let's go back." After Xiahoudun finished saying hello to Cao Pi, he went towards Xu Du surrounded by guards, and at this time the scorching sun was in the sky, and it was noon.
On the horse, Cao Zhang looked at Xiahoudun's burly back, and suddenly had a feeling of admiration in his heart, obviously Xiahoudun's words had won Cao Zhang's respect, and Cao Zhang's heart was not known if he would have it in the future, but Xiahoudun definitely had.
Remembering that the history books said that Xiahoudun won the trust of Cao Cao, often went in and out of the same car, and could enter Cao Cao's bedroom at will without notification, under such honor, Xiahoudun still maintained a pure and simple life, scattered his surplus wealth to others, and never purchased private property, in the army, he still insisted on asking literati to teach him, all of which illustrated Xiahoudun's noble character.
There is a history book that says: "Don't be overjoyed when you win, and don't be discouraged when you lose." Peace is not luxurious, danger is not fearful. Those who have thunder in their chests and their faces are like a peaceful lake can worship the general. Obviously, Xiahoudun is such a person.
