Chapter 119: Offensive and Defensive Techniques
Dr. Liu began to explain:
"Unarmed defense and attack training includes basic techniques, basic attack techniques, basic defense techniques, basic control techniques, extrication techniques, applied techniques and tactics, and comprehensive defense training.
Gao Yue put his ear to the wall and listened very carefully.
"Basic techniques include basic postures, hand shapes, gait patterns, footwork, etc. Basic posture: It mainly refers to taking a reasonable standing posture and protective action in actual combat, and at the same time strengthening the awareness of safety vigilance, so as to fully prepare for the next step of offensive and defensive fighting. The basic postures are broadly divided into two types: fighting posture and alert posture. The adoption of basic postures must follow three advantages: first, it is conducive to the stability of the body's center of gravity; Second, it is conducive to rapid start-up and movement; Third, it is conducive to the implementation of self-protection and offensive and defensive technical actions...... Now let's talk about footwork, also called sliding step: the main purpose of training is to adjust the offensive and defensive distances that are beneficial to oneself, destroy the opponent's offensive route and distance, and achieve the effect of defeating the enemy. The training of footwork requires fast movement and stable center of gravity! Do you understand? Gao Yue. ”
"Understood! It would be nice if you could demonstrate it! I replied aloud.
"I'd like to too, but when I explain, you have a rough idea in your head, and then follow along with the action yourself! Now I will talk about the essentials of the fighting posture: stand upright, take a big step with your right foot behind the right, stand with your feet open, your right knee slightly bent, and stand sideways, with your feet shoulder-width apart; The toe of the left foot is slightly buckled, the right heel is abducted about 35 degrees, the heel is raised, and the center of gravity falls between the legs or slightly to the back leg; Make fists with both hands, left front and right back, with the fists facing backwards and upwards; The left arm is bent, the elbow joint sinks to protect the left rib, the angle is between 90 degrees and 110 degrees, and the left fist is the same height as the nose; The right arm is bent, the angle of the elbow joint is less than 90 degrees, and the large and small arms are close to the right rib; Tuck your abdomen and chest, slightly close your jaw, close your mouth and close your teeth, and look at your opponent...... You do the action first! Dr. Liu shouted.
I remembered the gesture he had just said, and then I slowly started it, repeating it many times, and I understood it carefully.
"The main point of this movement is: the body is naturally relaxed, the chest is pulled out, the shoulders are lowered, and the legs are slightly bent! Remembered! You can do it all the time and again, and it's best to memorize all the essentials I just said! Dr. Liu added.
I repeated it many times, as he asked. Then he asked him to repeat the essentials of the movement, and quickly memorized it himself.
"How does it feel?" Dr. Liu asked.
"It's fine!" I replied aloud.
"Okay, let me tell you about the vigilance posture, the essentials of the movement are: open feet, left foot in front, right foot behind, knees slightly bent, feet shoulder-width apart; Stand sideways at about 45 degrees with your weight between your legs or slightly on your hind legs. Place your hands naturally at your sides, your jaw slightly tucked in, and your eyes look forward. The main point of the movement is that the body is naturally relaxed, and the legs are bent at a certain level, so that they can start to make defensive or offensive movements at any time...... Have you memorized them all? Dr. Liu exclaimed.
I listened and memorized, and then repeated it. Because of the high concentration of the mind, it is quickly memorized. I followed these instructions several more times.
"Finally, there's the footwork, also known as the sliding step. The essentials of the movement are: stand in a fighting position, slide forward with the front foot (left foot) half a step, follow up with the back foot for half a step, keep the upper body still, maintain balance, and maintain the original fighting position for other parts. Backwards, left, right, the same thing. The main points of the movement are: the body naturally relaxes and moves smoothly; Move forward, move the front foot first, move backward, move the back foot first, move the left foot, move the left foot first, move the right foot first, move the left first; Keep the posture unchanged during the movement, and move as a whole...... Remember? Physician Liu said.
"Remember!" I replied aloud.
"These are the most basic postures, and you should definitely practice them! From now on, repeat the three postures I just said until they are ripe, and then we will talk about the basic attack techniques tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Okay, you can practice on your own, I'm going to take a break. I'll be looking for you again in the evening! Physician Liu said.
"Good!" I shouted.
Sitting next to the pile of mineral water, I drank a little water, then threw the empty bottles into the air, closed my eyes, reached out and grabbed them quickly, repeating the same action as I had done in the morning.
Then I ate some dry food to replenish my strength.
I felt a little tired, so I lay down on the cold concrete floor and rested for a while. It may be that the body is too tired and falls asleep in less than a few minutes.
……
I don't know how long I slept, and when I woke up, there was no light. I rubbed my eyes, stood up, and repeated the essentials of the three basic postures.
What Dr. Liu said: a cool head and way of thinking; Always maintain a state of preparedness and a heart of defense; Extremely persevering willpower, indestructible spiritual qualities...... These three points have been echoing in my mind. At the slightest inertia and laxity, these words jump out at once, alerting me to persevere!
……
After practicing for about two or three hours, I leaned against the wall and shouted to Dr. Liu at the cracks.
"How's it going?" He responded immediately.
"Since I woke up, I've been scraping the walls, and the cracks are still too small, and sometimes I have to speak very loudly, which is not good for class......," Dr. Liu continued.
When I heard this, I was suddenly very moved, and my nose was sore.
"It's probably night, isn't it? Have you eaten? I asked.
"Ate a little, didn't have much appetite. You exercise a lot, and I'm still thinking that if I dig a bigger crack in the future, I can pass on some of my dry food to you to eat...... The next training sessions will be more intense and you will need more energy! Dr. Liu exclaimed.
I was inexplicably moved again, and I didn't know what to say for a while.
"Let's talk about the evening class now. The first lesson is observation. Dr. Liu exclaimed.
"Okay." I replied happily.
"First of all, let me ask you a question, if you are talking and laughing and drinking in a karaoke room with a dozen friends, and suddenly a stranger quietly walks in and walks out, and asks you and your dozen friends to describe the strangers who just went in and out, I don't know how many people can give the correct answer." Dr. Liu asked.
"Drunk, I don't think many people can describe it correctly." I replied.
"Yes, some will answer that it is a young man wearing a tie, a blue suit, black leather shoes, and glasses; Some people will say that it is a middle-aged man wearing an open-collared shirt and red leather shoes; Some would even say that it is a woman and not a man...... In fact, memory is quite unreliable for things that are not carefully paid attention to. So what we're going to talk about today is to develop a more elite sense of observation than ordinary people, provided that you pay more attention to everything! No matter what happens in front of you, whatever appears in front of you, you have to scan it all and remember it all in your mind, which is a special ability. When we used to train, the instructor would take us out into the street, walk through a crowded street together, and ask me to describe the characteristics of everyone I saw, including their dress, figure, facial expressions, and even their identity! At first, I could only remember the characteristics of three or five people at a glance, but later, after more than three months of special practice, I was able to remember the characteristics of a hundred people, and I could also roughly tell their identities. We can't do this training in this dark environment, so let's make up for it when we get out! Physician Liu said.
"More than a hundred? So powerful! "I stuck out my tongue.
"Yes, as soon as you walk down a crowded sidewalk, you have to repeat it. The instructor also recorded on the overpass, and after going back, he checked them one by one, and if he was wrong by five percent, he would be considered a failure! During that time, it was extremely painful...... However, he also really practiced the 'Fire-Eyed Venus'! Benefit for life! Nowadays, many times, when I walk on the road, I can basically reflexively analyze all the people I have seen with a glance. Especially when handling cases, you can tell at a glance which person is following you and which person is ......suspicious," Dr. Liu replied.
Hearing this, I opened my mouth wide and was amazed.
