Volume 1 Last Night's Stars Are Just Like You Chapter 246 Miao. Break the sword

However, Li Qing still underestimated the gold content of Ye Xiao, the "Sword Saint", with a sword in his hand, Ye Xiao was suddenly possessed by divine power, and between the sword light, he pressed people with pure sword energy.

Li Qing was not discouraged at all, but pulled out a knife with a slightly strange shape from the arsenal.

The knife is five feet long, the blade is slender, and it has the characteristics of both knives and guns, and can be used interchangeably with one and two hands, so that it is convenient to exert the overall strength of the waist and back. When the enemy is used, he will toss and turn combos, quickly leap through the calendar, and destroy the knife with the body, and the knife will turn with the person, and the momentum is like a broken bamboo, and the killing power is extremely great.

Seedling. Knife!

Instrument a single knife, with both hands with a knife also. Its skills are unauthorized slaves. Refining and refining, the system is light and profitable, and the target sheath and other things are the same as each other, and the knife of the other side can be combined. And it is good at grinding, shining brightly, and chilling. Its usage, jumping left and right, strange and secretive, people can not be measured, so the long skill is often defeated by the knife. Yu so to visit its law, there is a Zhejiang teacher Liu Yunfeng, get the true inheritance of the widow, do not hesitate to give Yu, quite a pot of mystery. When the north and south all heard the name of Bozhou Guo Wudao, and later visited it in person, but compared to Liu, Liu Zhimiao, and better than Guo Duo. Gen Yuan is subject to Liu Dao, powerful and lawless, but nameless. Today, take the image according to the situation, and draft its name, so that it is easy for the learner to remember. Its usage, but also to the body method as the key, jumping over the distance, quick eyes, quick hands, lure and hit, surprise and take it, heart and hand, courage is not chaotic, can be wonderful. Today, the eight crossbows are used at the same time, and only the number of potential drawings is selected, and the reason for it can be compared with the enemy. If you encounter other weapons, and this circle turns sharp, the victory is in my hands.

Interpretation: Miao. The knife used to have no name, and the text said that "according to the situation, the name of the knife" means that the shape of the knife is very similar to the wheat seedling, to define its name.

Seedling. Knife spectrum single knife style said:

[Gu Yun: "Fast Horse Light Knife".] Nowadays, the knife (3 feet 8 inches) and the target (1 foot 2 inches) are five feet long. If you hold a light knife, you can't control the law, iron is not steel, light is thin, cut a knife, the knife edge is crooked, how can you kill. If it is to be hard, the knife must be thick, thick and heavy, and those who are not strong cannot use it. Therefore, the production method, only the back of the knife should be thick, from the bottom to the tip, gradually thin, the ridges on both sides should be raised, and the knife edge should be thin, which is the weight of the appropriate. Iron should be strung for a long time to remove scum. When grinding, there is no pockmarked dots, such as the mirror as brilliance, then when it encounters damp sweat, it is not rusty, but the iron is more refined and less, and it is long-term refining into steel. The scabbard should be wide, and the knife edge should be slightly tightened into the sheath. It is also important to be relaxed and easy to get in and out. If a crossbow is used with a knife, the length of the knife is (2 feet 8 inches), and the target length is 9 inches, making a total length of 3 feet 7 inches. It should not be too long, for fear of hanging around the waist, and it is inconvenient to use a crossbow. The sheath is made of leather, and its method is carried before using a crossbow and a hammer knife. 】

Ye Xiao smiled: "Katana and Miao. Although the knives are very different, they also have the same effect, are you sure that another knife can block my sword intent?

Li Qing shook his head and said: "There are many weapons in the world, if you don't give it a try, how do you know that I can't stop it?" ”

"Then come."

Knife, the courage of a hundred soldiers.

Even if many people in modern times will prefer swords, but knives will always be the most blood-soaked country on the battlefield.

[Before the Western Han Dynasty, generals, officials, or soldiers wore or fought on the battlefield were swords, not swords. In the history of the Spring and Autumn Period, the story of King Jing Ke Qin's "Seeing the Poor Dagger" and the Yuzang Sword "Specializing in Assassinating the King" are all well-known. These two are hidden in the scroll and

The sharp weapons in the belly of the fish are all short swords. In 1965, the sword of King Goujian of Yue unearthed in a Chu tomb of Wangwang in Jiangling, Hubei Province, although it will see the light of day again after 2,400 years, it is still radiant and extremely sharp.

In 1976, Wu Wangfucha sword unearthed in Caipo, Xiangyang, Hubei Province, its sharpness is also amazing.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the treasure blades of "blowing the hairy blade and cutting the grass in the wind" kept by the vassal states, such as "Ganjiang", "Mo Xie", "Qing Yu", "Yuzang" and so on, were all swords rather than knives. This shows that the sword was not only an important weapon for attack and defense on the battlefield during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but also an important token of the identity of the upper-class figures. Even the envoys of the vassal states at that time had to carry swords. At the same time, it is also an important gift from countries to each other.

Although as early as ancient times, human beings used stone knives, mussel knives and bone knives and other weapons to fight with wild beasts and compete with neighbors for survival, and knives made of bronze and iron also appeared in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, but they were not valued in military equipment, and it was not until the Western Han Dynasty that the role of knives on the battlefield was valued.

In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, cavalry began to appear as an independent branch of the army. Although the image of cavalry lined up with chariot troops has also been found in the terracotta pit of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the large use of cavalry in the Cheng system began in the historical period of the peasant uprising at the end of the Qin Dynasty, through the dispute between Chu and Han and the early years of the Western Han Dynasty. When a large group of cavalry galloping across the battlefield charged at the enemy with a long sword in hand, because of the speed of the horse, they wanted to damage the enemy, mainly by swinging their arms and slashing rather than pushing and stabbing the enemy with their swords. In this way, the sharp edge of the sword does not play a big role. Although there are blades on both sides of the sword, only one side of the blade can be used when chopping, and the blade on the other side cannot be used, the manufacturing process is complicated, and it is easy to break when chopping. Only by solving this problem and producing more suitable chopping weapons for cavalry can we improve combat effectiveness. So there was a long knife with a ring handle. It is a short-handled weapon designed specifically for chopping. One side of the long knife has a cutting edge, and the other side is made into a thick spine for the back of the knife, and at the same time, the sharp long sword edge is removed, and the thick ridge and thin blade are not only conducive to chopping from a mechanical point of view, but also the force ridge has no blade, which can be thickened and not easy to break.

In the first year of Yuanshuo of the Western Han Dynasty (128 B.C.) and the following 10 years, the Han army and the Xiongnu had three major battles, and the total number of cavalry on both sides was about 200,000. For cavalry, the stabbing of the long sword is obviously not as lethal as the slashing of the long knife, so the ring-handled long knife used by the cavalry of the Han Dynasty gradually replaced the long sword. This kind of knife is the ancestor of the Chinese war knife, and it is similar to today. The knife is also called the Han knife. Without exception, the head end of the handle of the Han knife is made into a flat ring, so this kind of Han knife is often called "ring-handled long knife" or "ring-headed knife".

In the Western Han Dynasty tomb unearthed in Luoyang City, Henan Province, you can see the ring-handled long knife with the burial. For example, in 1957~1958, in the 23 Western Han tombs cleaned up in the west of Luoyang, long knives with rings and handles were found. Its length varies from 58~114 cm. Historical Records. In the Book of Han, there are many records of the swords of generals and school officials in the Western Han Dynasty. When the famous general Li Guang went out to fight with Wei Qing, he lost his way, and after returning to the army, he committed suicide in anger, and was called "self-defeating with a knife" by the book. Su Wu, the envoy of the Western Han Dynasty who sent an envoy to the Xiongnu, also wore a long sword. "Hanshu - The Biography of Su Wu" contains: When the Xiongnu forced Su Wu to surrender, Wu said: "Qu Jie humiliated his life, although he was born, what face returned to Han, and committed suicide with a sword." ”

The iron knife obtained in the Eastern Han Dynasty tomb in Changsha City is more than 138.5 centimeters long, and the same is true of the Eastern Han Dynasty long knife unearthed in Henan

The ring-handled long knife (iron) in the Eastern Han Dynasty tomb in Jiaqu can be used as a representative of high-quality steel knives in this period. A long knife with an inscription on the year found in Cangshan, Shandong Province, has a total length of 111.5 cm, and the thickness of the blade is about 1/3 of the width of the blade. There is a flame seal pattern of wrong gold on the knife body, and there are eighteen wrong gold Lishu knife inscriptions: "In May of the sixth year of Yongchu, Bingwu made a big knife and Ji Yangyi's descendants." From this, it can be seen that this knife was made in the sixth year of Emperor Yongchu of Han An, that is, in 112 AD. This knife is now preserved in the Chinese History Museum. It's exactly the same as the Han knife we are using. After identification, this knife is made of sand steel with high carbon content as raw material, and it has been forged many times. The inscription "卅梑" means "卅频", which may represent a certain standard of process quality ("卅" means forging 30 times – author's note).

During the Three Kingdoms period, there was a story of Zhuge Liang making a knife, which is said to have been made in the valley, and a total of 3,000 were made. According to Liang Taohong's "Sword Record", "Sun Quan mined Wuchang steel in the fifth year of Huangwu to make ten swords and ten thousand knives, each three feet and nine inches long, all of them

Nanyue carbon is made, and there is a "Da Wu" seal on it. After the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the steel knife is the main infantry and cavalry weapon in the standard equipment of the Tang Dynasty army can see a large number of horizontal knives and Mo knives, but there is no trace of the sword, the "Tang Liudian" arsenal order has a knife system and no sword system, and its knife system has four: that is, the instrument knife, the knife, the horizontal knife and the Mo knife. The latter two are the main weapons in the troops. "The horizontal knife is also equipped with a knife, and the name worn by the infantry comes from the Sui." Yang Hong's "Ancient Chinese Weapons Treatise" discusses the Mo knife as follows: "The Mo knife is also a long knife, and the infantry holds it." During the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, Li Siye was an outstanding hand-made Mo knife (long knife) of the famous general. According to the New Tang Dynasty Book: "Li Siye, Jingzhao (now Chang'an), a native of Anling, is seven feet long, and his arm strength is outstanding......... In the Anxi Army, he used a Mo knife at the beginning, and the heir is especially good, and he must be the vanguard at every station, and he will be urged by Ma Ling to be a festival, and he must have everything in battle. Because of his outstanding military achievements, he was awarded the title of "Modao General". The long knife created in the Western Han Dynasty developed into a large number of weapons in the army by the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty was the heyday of the development of the long knife. Therefore, Wu Zhen, a national martial artist in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, said in his book "Single Knife Illustrated": "Tang has a Mo sword, and the battle array is fierce, and its law is not transmitted." It means that the Tang Dynasty Modao battle was extremely powerful, but the ancestors did not preserve this treasure for a long time, and it was not easy to pass it on lightly, so it was not widely spread. 】

Li Qing looked at the sword qi that was sprinkled on him like water, and smiled.

"To be able to wield a sword to this point is indeed a technical job."

Li Qing directly held the knife in both hands, ignoring the sprinkled sword qi, like a rain shelterer running wildly in the rain, ignoring the heavy rain, only thinking about returning home and drying his clothes.

"Homecoming!"

"Yan Hui!"

The knife in Li Qing's hand was like a stack of thunder, and the flow of the qi exploded instantly, like a brocade of flowers, cooking oil on fire.

But the extremely abnormal momentum rises again and again, and flourishes again and again!

One move to return home, one move to return, one back and forth.

The sword rain in the sky was cleaned!

Ye Xiao laughed and said: "What a sword to break the sun and moon, today I will use the sword in my hand to ask about your sword path." ”

Li Qing smiled casually: "I don't dare to ask for what I want." ”

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
