readx;? Yu Yong's strength has improved rapidly in the past few days, and it is said that even if Fan Xu does not use all his strength to fight with Yu Yong, he may be defeated by Yu Yong. Pen&Fun&Pavilion www.biquge.info[

You must know one thing, that is, Fan Xu is not only the number one master under Liu Bang, but also the strongest person among the current Great Qin Emperor.

This is not to say that Fan Xu's strength has regressed, but compared to Liu Bang's situation, the number of top masters in the Great Qin Empire at the moment is not comparable to Liu Bang or Xiang Yu.

But one thing that makes Zhang Jiashi feel very sorry is that although Yuyong's strength has been greatly improved, there is one thing that is impossible to change. That is, Yu Yong's strength mainly comes from his innate brute strength and a set of internal strength methods based on fierceness.

This also shows that Yu Yong's weapons can only be heavy weapons rather than light weapons such as long swords.

Even if it is an ancient bronze greatsword, Yu Yong can easily break the sword body due to excessive force. This is undoubtedly a fatal flaw for master combat.

Zhang Jiashi hopes that his swordsmanship can have a well-qualified inheritor. But Yu Yong is clearly not in this category. Moreover, even the current Great Qin Empire does not have the swordsmanship that mainly takes the fierce route.

The sword is an important part of Chinese martial arts, and has a high status in traditional Chinese martial arts. Since ancient times, the chivalrous man wears a sword, the elegant and noble wears a sword, and the general commands the sword, which shows that the sword is the essence of martial arts culture and a measure of the depth of kung fu.

A sword is a short, straight, elongated, pointed, and bladed weapon on both sides. The sword is one of the four famous weapons in ancient China, known as the "king of a hundred soldiers". In ancient times, the sword was a weapon of war, with a sword edge and two edges, and it was used to avoid the knife when it was strong, and it was not hard to hit or strike. Practice "the sword is like a swimming dragon". With a bit of gentleness and elegance. Its usage has stabbing, splitting, hanging, pointing, collapse, cloud, wiping, piercing, pressing, etc., on the basis of swordsmanship with sword fingers, plus a variety of footwork, step, jump, balance, rotation and other actions constitute the routine of swordsmanship.

Swordsmanship, on the other hand, is the best way to use a sword. When using a sword, it is necessary to use the sword not only as a weapon, but also as a method of fighting. This is the mystery of using the sword, and it is also the truth that cannot be known to understand and use swordsmanship.

The striking methods of the sword include: splitting, stabbing, pointing, teasing, collapsing, intercepting, wiping, piercing, picking, lifting, twisting, sweeping, etc.

The characteristics of swordsmanship are: light and agile, chic, elegant, there is a saying that "the sword walks the American style" and "the sword is like a flying wind". According to the practice, swordsmanship is divided into line swords, potential swords, two-handed swords, long spike swords, double swords, backhand swords, etc.

There are many swordsmanship routines, and the common swordsmanship in later generations are: self-selected swordsmanship, Qingping sword, Wudang sword, Sancai sword, Sanhe sword, Yunlong sword, Bagua sword, Taiji sword, praying mantis sword, through arm sword, drunken sword, Xuanhua sword, seventy-three sword, dragon-shaped sword, Qimen thirteen sword, Baihong sword, pure yang sword, seven-star sword, etc.

In terms of the development of the martial arts system, Wudang and Shaolin are the two major sects of Chinese martial arts, and Wudang Sword is the representative of Wudang Kung Fu. Wudang sword is a light weapon and the like, its method to hook, hang, point, pick, slash, teasing, split, mainly, when practicing the sword requires the sword to walk, with the body with the sword, the application to do the sword and the body, the body and the qi, the gas and the spirit.

There are many kinds of swordsmanship in Wudang Sword School, and Wudang Mountain is mainly based on: Taiji Sword, Taiyi Xuanmen Sword, Jiugong Bagua Sword, Eight Immortal Sword, Xuangong Sword, Longhua Sword, etc.

Taiyi Xuanmen sword is Wudang Taiyi Gate swordsmanship, its swordsmanship is characterized by both fast and slow, rigid and soft, practice requires the sword to go with you, with the body with the sword, the shape of the god to do the shape and the meaning of the combination, the meaning and the gas, the gas and the gods. **It also requires hands, eyes, body, law, and steps. This swordsmanship, like a dragon out of the water, quiet like a civet cat catching mice, in motion, the hand is divided into yin and yang, the body hides the gossip, steps on the nine palaces, the inside is in line with its qi, and the outside is in its shape, it is the best in the Wudang sword, since ancient times, it is the treasure of Wudang Mountain, the secret law.

In the Ming Dynasty, Changshu Shidian was respectful and strict, and it was passed on by Geng Tangerine to grant Taicang Lu Shiyi and Tongwei Chen Huyi. Yu Dayou once Li Liangqin learned to fight Jing Chu's long sword. In the Qing Dynasty, there was Wang Yaochen of Shandong who was awarded Wu Yusheng of Sichuan with a professional swordsmanship. Yusheng awarded Song Tsaifeng, and Song's book "The True Biography of Swordsmanship" was published. As far as I can see, there are Li Jinglin who is famous for his swordsmanship in contemporary times, and his teacher is Chen Shijun, and the speaker says that he can be deified. Tai Chi waist, gossip steps, is really a unique swordsmanship. Sun Fuquan wrote "Bagua Sword"; Zhao Lianhe passed on the Dharma sword and the silk robe sword; Ma Jinbiao passed on the pure yang sword; and Zhang Jingfu passed on the Panlong sword.

Among the light swordsmanship of later generations, there are fourteen more practical routines:

1. Stabbing sword: The vertical sword or flat sword goes straight forward as a thorn, the force reaches the tip of the sword, and the arm and the sword are in a straight line. The blade facing up and down is a standing sword, and the blade facing left and right is a flat sword.

2 split sword: standing sword, from top to bottom for splitting, force to the sword body, arm and sword in a straight line. Swing the sword in a vertical circle along the right or left side of the body, and the back split sword should be in harmony with the body turning back.

The upper sword is diagonally upward, the lower sword is diagonally downward, and the rear sword is diagonally to the right and backward downward, and the arms are in a straight line with the sword.

10. Holding the sword: holding the sword in front of the chest with the right hand, the tip of the sword facing right is the horizontal holding sword, the tip of the sword facing up is the standing holding sword, and the tip of the sword facing forward is the horizontal holding sword.

(14) Wrist flower: With the wrist as the axis, the sword is close to the circle on both sides of the arm, and the force reaches the tip of the sword.

Zhang Jiashi's swordsmanship is mainly a swordsmanship integrated from these fourteen swordsmanship, of course, these swordsmanship moves are not a routine in themselves, but one of the practical skills.

Before crossing into this world, Zhang Jiashi was more inclined to slash and pick swordsmanship based on force, and abandoned some of the more fancy and flexible moves.

This is mainly because of the length and weight of the sword body, which makes Zhang Jiashi clearly understand one point, that is, these famous swords he uses are really not easy to take the light and flexible route.

......

In addition to Chinese swordsmanship, there are three main systems of swordsmanship in the world: short-handled fighting swordsmanship, Japanese swordsmanship, and Western fencing.

In the Eastern Continent in later generations, in addition to Chinese swordsmanship, the most famous is Japanese swordsmanship.

The knives used in Japanese swordsmanship are generally called Japanese swords, and in China, they are also known as Japanese swords, and their blades are narrow and slightly curved, with a long single-edged handle, and they are suitable for slashing and stabbing, which is actually the product of the unity of swords. The commonly used Japanese knife shape system is divided into large and small (long and short), and the big knife is divided into two kinds of knives (the arc of the blade is larger) and the knife (the blade is straighter), and the knife is called the wakicha (also known as the waki, the length of the knife is only about two-thirds of the normal Japanese big knife and the knife, so it is also called the small knife. Ancient Japanese samurai generally wore two swords, one large and one small).

There are many schools of swordsmanship in ancient martial arts in Japan, and the ancient ones are claimed to have more than 200 to 300 schools, mainly including Yanagi Shinyin Stream Swordsmanship, Ono One Knife Flow Swordsmanship, Beichen One Sword Stream Swordsmanship, Ma Ting Nunryu Swordsmanship, Kashima Shindang Stream Swordsmanship, Eastern Army Stream Swordsmanship, True Shadow Flow Swordsmanship, Straight Heart Shadow Flow Swordsmanship, Shinto Stream Swordsmanship, Shinto Thoughtless Flow Swordsmanship, Dangliu Swordsman, Manifestation Flow Swordsmanship, Heart-shaped Sword Flow Swordsmanship, Liu Gangliu Swordsmanship, Iron Man Real Hand Flow Swordsmanship, Nakajo Leveling Method, Tianliu Wars Swordsmanship, Divine Transmission Flow Fencing, etc.

Japanese samurai must wear swords all year round, and the sword does not leave their bodies, so among all the ancient martial arts, swordsmanship is one of the most popular martial arts techniques that samurai must master and spread. In ancient times, swordsmanship was also known as swordsmanship, fencing, flat law, art of war, small art of war, knife art, and sword fighting. After the Meiji era, it was called kendo. Japanese Koryo swordsmanship includes the technique of using weapons such as taidao (the blade is facing downward when worn), striking sword (the blade is facing upwards when worn), and small taidao.

Its contents include the Tai Dao Jutsu and the Small Tai Knife Technique that use one knife (single sword), the two sword techniques that use long and short two swords (that is, the double sword technique that uses both large and small Tai swords, and the double sword technique in the Japanese ancient ryu swordsmanship is called "Ni Dao Flow", and the school has Miyamoto Musashi's two heavenly first-class techniques), the Shoji Sword (holding the big Tai Knife in the right hand and the small Tai Dao in the left hand), the Reverse Two Knife Technique (holding the small Tai Dao in the right hand and the large Tai Dao in the left hand), and the two sword techniques holding the big Tai Dao in both hands (such as the Imperial Hall of the Ryukyu Imperial Family's Secret Martial Arts Headquarters, Daito-ryu Aiki martial arts, etc.) and Kotaito-sa two-sword techniques (such as Tiandao-ryu, Yanagi Shinyan-eyeryu, etc.). It contains dangerous tricks such as dazzling, flirting with yin, and slashing at the opponent's carotid artery, and is usually mainly practiced in form (routine).

And Japanese swordsmanship has actually declined in the later generations of Zhang Jiashi. This is mainly due to the emergence of the abolition of the knife order.

In 1873, the Meiji government promulgated the "Conscription Order" and reformed the military service system, introducing a three-year compulsory military service system, in which all people became soldiers and everyone became a samurai. The reforms caused the samurai to lose their jobs all at once. For those who do not work, there is no need for the government to pay salaries. This is the "Zhilu disposition", the Zhilu is a fortune, and the disposition is removal.

In 1871, the Meiji government banned the carrying of swords by ordinary people, following the ban on ordinary people carrying swords in 1870. The sword, for the samurai, was a symbol, an honor, a part of life. For the sake of honor, you can die in battle, you can commit suicide, and now you are not even allowed to bring a knife, how can you die in battle, how can you commit suicide?

There is no job, there is no tool for suicide, and the samurai are resentful (there was a rebellion among the nobles in the Otaga area, known as the "Saga Rebellion" in history). On October 24, 1876, a rebellion broke out among the nobles in the Kumamoto area, known as the Kamikaze Rebellion. On October 27, 1876, a rebellion broke out among the nobles in the Akizuki area of Fukuoka, known as the "Akizuki Rebellion". On October 28, 1876, a rebellion broke out among the scholars in the Yamaguchi Hagi area, known as the "Hagi War". A series of rebellions led to the Southwest War, the largest civil war in Japanese history.

In addition to the abolition of the knife order, Zhang Jiashi learned a very interesting thing before crossing over, that is, many people have some misunderstandings about Japanese swords:

Misconception 1: Chinese broadswords specialize in katana.

In fact, this realization is very strange. Not to mention who and by what means this understanding was conveyed to us, but it is undoubtedly successful on a considerable scale!

"The 38 big covers of the big knife and the devil are like chopping wood", and "the little devil who can use the knife is fast, he doesn't want to die, and he must dodge the first knife" and so on - this clearly points out that even the big sword soldiers will not despise the Japanese soldiers who use Japanese swords.

Misconception 2: Katana swords are easy to split.

Broadswords are actually more brittle...... Many people think that the katana is hard and brittle, but in fact, whether it is the "square card" with steel sandwich, or the "rolling" and "five-piece combination" of steel-clad steel, they are all soft and hard, rigid and soft. When a person stands on his body, he will not break the blade when pressed to 40 degrees, and his flexibility is comparable to that of the "Han Sword", the supreme masterpiece of the two-handed sword.

The samurai sword is hard, and it is "good steel is used on the edge of the knife" - the blade and blade of the katana are forged from a piece of jade steel called "blade gold" of the highest grade "Mitaka Chuan" (made of sand), and the gold is cut and broken like chopping mud and sand, and there is a saying of "the mystery of the blade gold".

Misunderstanding 3: The second knife of the Japanese sword is slow:

It is true that there are not many swordsmen who can slash the second and third swords with "speed", but it is not impossible. In the war, it was required to train a lot of swordsmen, so there was not much demand for quality - it was a "mass-produced type", and in reality, each school had a master who could quickly and continuously produce a sword - all of them were "custom-made" carefully carved by masters.

This situation shows that in the hands of some masters, the chopping speed of Japanese swords is very fast.

Misunderstanding 4: The principle of drawing a knife and slashing people:

"Iaido" and "sword drawing" are not all equals - "Iaido" is stained with the word "Tao", and in Japan, as long as it is dipped in "Dao", it will be biased towards "art", "etiquette" and "culture", so the Iaido swordsman does not practice swordsmanship, but culture.

Many people think that the first knife of the "Juhe Chopping and Drawing Technique" is fast and powerful, because when drawing the knife, the arc of the blade and the scabbard + the friction between the blade and the inner wall of the scabbard are used - in fact, if you really pull out the knife like that, it will only cut your fingers, cut the inner wall of the scabbard, and finally scratch the blade - pull out the knife (also known as: take the knife), so that the blade is empty and the back of the knife slides out along the scabbard. Some samurai used to use their thumbs to push out a piece of the blade first, just to determine whether the blade was stuck in the scabbard.

The reason why the "knife drawing technique" is "fast" is that the general outflow of knives is to "draw the knife" and pose a "starting posture" and then "cut people with a knife". "Drawing the sword" is to "draw the sword" and directly "cut the knife" with one hand - the one-handed knife is generally considered not to be swordsmanship, but it is the "non-mainstream" in the ancient flow swordsmanship - except for some special swordsmanship such as "knife drawing", "second knife flow" and "short knife technique", the rest of the one-handed "swinging the knife" is not recognized!

Judging from these circumstances, Zhang Jingwu also knows very well that the actual combat effectiveness of Japanese swords is not very bad, if it were not for the fact that the material is not up to standard, the Japanese swords made of molten iron are indeed easy to break, and Zhang Jiashi will also form a swordsman army using Japanese swords as an escort.
