Before the start of the World Championships, Meng Nanzhi helped Yu Jiaheng to play closed.

The venue for the competition was France, and the World Championships also gathered high-level athletes from all over the world.

The men's epee individual competition and the women's individual sabre competition are scheduled for the first day, and the women's individual competition starts first, and the men's heavy 64 round of 64 competition will start when the women's top 64 ends.

Because it was the first day of the competition, and as a European advantage competition, there were many spectators who came to watch the game, and the entire venue was full.

Before the round of 16, it seems that all the players have reached a consensus, that is, to conserve physical strength, after all, it is a day to fight, and the strength shown to the opponent is also reserved.

In the 1/4 finals, Fang Weiyu once again faced South Korean player Zheng Xiangyu, at this point, he did have a deep understanding that compared to the current 1/4 finals, in the group round-robin match, Zheng Xiangyu can be said to play very conservatively.

In this game, Zheng Xiangyu won 15:11, and Fang Weiyu stopped in the quarterfinals.

Before the competition, Coach Lin took everyone to watch all the game videos of the seeded players in this World Championships as a reference, and also made an analysis of the characteristics of the players.

And Yu Jiaheng met Konishi Hayami, an athlete from Japan, Konishi Hayami is a veteran, the same age as Song Han, 35 years old, there is news that he is about to retire, and this year should also be his last game.

Konishi is a relatively short fencer among fencers, and when he is shorter than his opponent, he will lose some advantages because of the shorter length of his hands and feet than his opponent.

But although he is short in stature, he is very flexible, and at this point, he has also transformed his shortcomings into a characteristic of his own, and he will not see Konishi early because of the advantage of arm length. What a bargain to get. He's a tough guy with a lot of movement and a lot of tactical changes.

Sure enough, Yu Jiaheng felt powerless in the first round,- - opening, Konishi saw a lot of hand movements, although both sides were only in a secretly tentative position at the beginning, but his temptation was very aggressive, so the opening game was full of gunpowder.

His hands. The upper strength is very large, which is the same as Yu Jiaheng, and when he leaped up several times to attack Yu Jiaheng, the sword was thrown directly on his arm.

Fortunately, because of the closure, Yu Jiaheng's pain became dull.

The scores on both sides have been very tight, and Yu Jiaheng has almost figured out Konishi's early style of play in two rounds.

Because he does not have an advantage in height and arm length, he always likes to hit the opponent by surprise when he is in close combat, and uses his flexible characteristics to attack the opponent where it is easier to ignore. The effective part of the epee is the whole body, and when the two sides are fighting, the main part of the general attack is in. The upper body, as far as the eye can see, is also large, and Konishi will find another way to attack the opponent's calf.

Yu Jiaheng lost points several times, but was stabbed in the lower body by Konishi Harumi.

When the opponent's attention is kept in. When the upper body is up, he suddenly makes a downward fork and attacks the opponent's calf and even the top of the foot, and under such a tricky attack, it is difficult to react and retreat at once.

After Yu Jiaheng started the third round, he began to make Konishi Hayami suffer a loss with a rapid exchange of offense and defense, he defended his whole body airtightly, and soon seized the initiative to attack, and under the continuous offensive, Konishi Hayami was forced to retreat again and again.

But as a veteran who is older than Yu Jiaheng, Konishi has much more experience in the arena than Yu Jiaheng.

In terms of flexibility, he did not completely rely on attacking the parts that the opponent was more likely to ignore, and relied on surprise attacks to win, otherwise, he would have been suppressed by athletes from all over the world in the arena and could not move.

His pace is also flexible, and after Jia Heng takes the initiative, he is quick to retreat when defending.

With such flexibility, it is also difficult for opponents to bargain.

The time of the third round passed, and Yu Jiaheng and Konishi Hayamiya were both looking for opportunities.

Yu Jiaheng secretly calculated the distance in his heart, he retreated and gradually lured Konishi Hayami back to the middle of the kendo, and forced him to retreat in defense with continuous attacks.

In such a rapid switch of attack and defense, Yu Jiaheng widened the distance between him and Konishi Sawi, and he used the advantage of his arm length to stab Konishi Hayami's chest, but Konishi Hayami couldn't attack him.

Under such an entanglement, Yu Jiaheng finally won 15:14 with a one-point advantage, narrowly defeating Konishi Hayami 15:14 and successfully entered the semifinals.

After the end, Konishi shook hands with him and congratulated him in broken Chinese: "Congratulations, victory, you, very good."

Although this battle was not easy, Yu Jiaheng still felt happy, but it was a pity that he was not in the arena before. and the first fight turned out to be the last match of their careers.

After playing the 1/4 finals, it was already more than five o'clock in the afternoon. At the time of the women's individual semi-finals, everyone hurriedly had dinner.

Meng Nanzhi gave Yu Jiaheng a massage to relax his sore muscles after the war.

Fang Weiyu sat next to Yu Jiaheng and chatted with Zheng Xiangyu: "The opponent in the semi-finals, Zheng Xiangyu, I played two matches with him in the previous fight, he is ranked 18th in the world, but before that, he defeated the player ranked 9th in the world and the player ranked 12th in the world."

Yu Jiaheng nodded, he knew that Fang Weiyu was the 12th player in the world.

"It can be seen that he is in really good shape today, you have to be careful." Coach Lin stood in front of the two: "Zheng Xiangyu's style of play - Xiang is a big open, Jiaheng and he have fought against him, and I also have a certain understanding of him, the previous fight, I remember that he lost to you, but I feel that he is a very arrogant person, after losing to you that time, I should have studied you well when I went back, so I can't underestimate the enemy.

Yu Jiaheng then nodded, he kept his physical strength,- - he didn't speak, he just sat in his position, adjusted his breathing and relaxed his body, he is currently ranked 6th in the world, although he is before Zheng Xiangyu, but who will die will not know until after the game, this is also an opponent that should not be underestimated.

At the beginning of the semi-finals, Yu Jiaheng returned to the kendo, the opponent stood in front of him with a helmet, and after the two sides tried the sword, the game officially began with the referee's voice sounding on the sidelines.

Compared with Konishi, Yu Jiaheng is indeed more familiar with Zheng Xiangyu, this person likes to grasp the initiative and attack.

Sure enough, as soon as the game began, he immediately attacked Yu Jiaheng with his sword, not like other players, the two sides would first conduct a trial. Yu Jiaheng held his breath, raised his hand to block his sword, and wrapped around his sword with a suppressive tactic, gradually changing the originally passive position.

Zheng Sangyu was entangled by him, and under several sword fights, he couldn't draw his mind to attack, so his rhythm was disrupted.

Yu Jiaheng dodged one by one unexpectedly, stabbed him in the abdomen from the side, and took the lead in scoring a point.

There was a warm cheer from the audience.

But Zheng Xiangyu is not a fledgling player after all, and he will not be messed up because of Yu Jiaheng's suppression.

After starting again, he learned the lesson of the sword just now, and did not give Yu Jiaheng a chance to entangle him, he continued to attack Yu Jiaheng.

He stepped forward with a big stride and attacked Yu Jiaheng's shoulder, Yu Jiaheng dodged sideways, and he defended at the same time to block Yu Jiaheng's attack.

In the domestic broadcast room, the voice of the narrator came from the backstage: "It seems that the offensive line of this sword opponent has been judged by Yu Jiaheng."

The tension on Kendo can be felt through the TV screen.

"Doctor Meng, when did you love fencing competitions too?"

There was a surprised voice coming from behind Meng Yan from the chair in the lobby waiting area. On the stand up and push the bridge of the nose. His eyes were very calm, and he said, "It's just fine, just take a look."

In fact, he deliberately stopped when he was passing by.

When he passed by the lobby, the TV broadcast was broadcasting to the beginning of the semi-finals, and the voice of the commentator came out clearly from the screen: "Hello everyone, what we are seeing now is the live broadcast of the World Fencing Championships, and now it is the scene of the semi-finals, which is played by South Korea's Zheng Sang-woo against my country's Yu Jiaheng."

"Both are strong athletes, Zheng Xiangyu's current world ranking is 18th, Yu Jiaheng's world ranking is 6th, although Zheng Xiangyu's ranking is not as high as Yu Jiaheng's, but Zheng Xiangyu's state today is better than one game, it seems that this will be a very exciting game, let's look forward to Yu Jiaheng's performance."

When Meng Yan heard the name, she suddenly remembered that during the Chinese New Year, she had heard Meng Nanzhi mention that she had a boyfriend, and her boyfriend was a fencer, and his name seemed to be Yu Jiaheng.

That's why he stopped and sat down.

Meng Yan couldn't understand fencing competitions, and he hadn't learned about it before.

But the narrator of the broadcast explained in detail, so although he didn't understand it, he didn't completely see it.

"Yu Jiaheng's ability to seize opportunities is extremely strong, and after dodging twice, he immediately grabbed the flaw, leaving no time for Zheng Xiangyu to react, attack, attack, good! Beautiful!" The narrator's excited voice infected passers-by watching by the TV.

"It's really accurate," said someone who likes fencing and those around him.

"Is he powerful?" The companion asked. The man immediately replied, "Of course, I like to watch him fight the most, he is a very well-rounded player."

Meng Yan listened quietly, and a little nurse's admiring voice interjected: "You also like Yu Jiaheng?"

The man nodded, and the little nurse said excitedly: "Me too, he really played well, the last game was so exciting, a difference of one point, he is still so good-looking."

The narrator's voice continued to come out of the TV: "Zheng Xiangyu has leaped up again, very fast."

"Stabbed! The score is now 13:12, Zheng Xiangyu caught up with a sword, the gap narrowed, and now Yu Jiaheng is only ahead - sword. ”

"The advantage is still relatively weak, there is only one last round left, and now it is halftime, let's look forward to Yu Jiaheng's next performance.

Inside the competition venue.

Yu Jiaheng in the chair. Sitting down, he gasped slightly, listening to Coach Lin speak, and there was a whisper of discussion in the audience.

"He's actually a little anxious now, and in the last round, as long as you hold steady and don't give him a chance, you can win this one."

At that end, Zheng Sang-woo's coach was also talking to Zheng Sang-woo with a calm face.

The two of them came and went, and the break was over, and the coach of the Korean team followed him two steps to tell him.

Yu Jiaheng took a sip of water at the end, slowed down, and then walked onto the court.

- -In the opening scene, Jung Sang-woo took the lead in attacking as in the previous two rounds, but in this round he did not attack Yu Jiaheng's body, but instead attacked his sword.

Yu Jiaheng's sword was hit by him continuously, and the force was very heavy.

On the sidelines, Coach Lin rubbed his hair with a little headache when he saw Zheng Xiangyu's style of play, his fingers inserted into the slit between his hair, and he let out a low sigh imperceptibly. In the broadcast hall, the commentator's voice also became surprised: "I heard that Yu Jiaheng played with an injury this time, and Zheng Xiangyu's move was to attack Yu Jiaheng to make him unstable with his sword, so as to expose his flaws!"

"Yu Jiaheng uses a straight-handled sword, the straight-handled sword is a little longer than the gun-handled sword, and the straight-handled sword is also because of this advantage, it is not as stable as the gun-handled sword, but throughout Yu Jiaheng's competition over the years, he has already overcome this weakness, he does not hold the sword with half a hand, and the control of the sword is also very accurate."

"Now that Zheng Xiangyu is using this tactic, he should think that Yu Jiaheng's control of the sword will not be as stable as before when his arm is injured, so he wants to use this method to suppress Yu Jiaheng."

The crisp hitting sound under the collision of the two swords on the field became more and more urgent, and Meng Nanzhi's heart also rose to his throat.

She bit her lower lip and stared at the changes in the field from one second to the second.

Yu Jiaheng did not panic in the face of Zheng Xiangyu's attack, and from the moment he picked up the straight-handled sword, he was always overcoming the weakness of the straight-handled sword. As early as the first time he stood on the international stage, he was suppressed and beaten back one after another, and he stopped playing. on any suppression and feeling flustered.

Under the helmet, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a faint sneer.

He launched a counterattack against Zheng Sang-woo, he wanted to hit his sword and make him unstable in his sword, and this intention was doomed to fail.

Zheng Xiangyu's style of play was too broken, and Yu Jiaheng sneaked up directly from the underside of his handguard plate between attack and defense, and stabbed the lower part of Zheng Xiangyu's sword-wielding.

The lights come on, 14:12.

The cheers in the audience were even louder than before.

When Yu Jiaheng returned to the center with his back, he made a fist with his left hand and cheered himself up.

Coach Lin let out a sigh of relief, and he knew that Yu Jiaheng would not let him down, this sword was fought beautifully! In the broadcast hall, the narrator's voice also rose high: "Beautiful, this sword is too clever!"

As the third round continued, Jung Sang-woo's momentum became noticeably sluggish, and he was a little agitated, as he had reached a crucial match point at this time, and if he couldn't overtake Yu Jiaheng in the Jedi, then he would miss the final.

Yu Jiaheng took the initiative to attack Zheng Xiangyu, and after a few sword fights, Zheng Xiangyu's counterattack became less imposing than before.

Yu Jiaheng made a feint, and when he strode forward, the sword that was originally stabbed straight dodged, making Zheng Xiangyu's defense fall short, and when the two approached, Yu Jiaheng suddenly pressed down, and his sword attacked straight towards Zheng Xiangyu's lower body.

Zheng Sang-woo didn't have time to retreat, he wanted to seize the opportunity to attack Yu Jiaheng's shoulder, and the two attacked each other at the same time. ，

Between the electric lights and flints, the colored lights are lit up.

It was Yu Jiaheng's sword tip that first scratched Zheng Xiangyu's calf! The sword was so fast that it didn't even fight back in the audience. After a pause of two or three seconds, there was a burst of cheers from the audience.

At 15:12, Yu Jiaheng won!
