233. The difference in swordsmanship

Faced with Lan En's whole person's center of gravity added to the accumulation process, a sword that 'flung out'.

Even though Reina had already chosen the most effective way to resist, he pressed the weight of his entire body on the blade of his sword and blocked downward.

But he was still under that tremendous force, and his feet were more than ten centimeters off the ground!

Finally, the straw sandals stepped on the ground again, marking two dazzling marks on the floor of the Buddhist hall, and the earth piled up at the end of the marks before it could be stopped.

"Well done! Lanne! ”

Ashina couldn't even hold back his laughter.

Be bold and careful in battle, this saying has been passed down for a long time in every martial arts school.

But this kid can still do this kind of perfect reaction in the face of the pressure of his reed's heart. It's fun!

And Lan's offensive was not over yet.

The cat's eyes scanned Reina's body posture in a very short time.

Mentos synchronized the movement of his pupils, and the data was directly marked by it, and in the end, it was up to Rann to decide—

Keep on the storm!

After a strong slash that pressed the center of gravity of his body, the golden and steel dragon knife of Reed's heart had been swung to the right side of his body.

There was a gap in the left defense, and even though it took less than a tenth of a second to be repaired, Lan En could catch it!

With a series of iron-striking 'clanging bells', Reeda single-mindedly raised his knife from the right side of his body and blocked it to the left side of his body.

The distance between his arm and the long knife meant that he shouldn't be faster than Lane.

So every time they collided, Lan En was able to break up the stance he was about to re-arrange!

In Western swordsmanship, the superior side should constantly put pressure on the opponent's weaker side, and the pressure is not only to expect the opponent to make mistakes under pressure, but also to protect themselves.

An opponent who is tired of dealing with an attack has no chance to attack.

Therefore, the onslaught of the superior side is a strategy that looks violent and brainless, but is actually safe and stable.

There was no doubt about Reina's swordsmanship, and his one-eyed eye grew brighter and brighter in the fierce slash.

With his skills and experience, he can easily find out the other party's thoughts from the seemingly violent knife fight.

Even the freshness of the sensation made him feel like he was drinking a spirit.

"I see! This is the essence of Nanban swordsmanship!? ”

This emaciated old man keenly sensed the difference between fighting with Lan En and fighting with the local swordsmen of Dongying.

Removing his overly excellent physical ability, in terms of swordsmanship, the Southern Barbarian swordsmanship is very different from the Eastern swordsmanship.

"Is the battle actually an inducement battle for you!? Ha ha! ”

Even though the situation was temporarily suppressed, Ashina still laughed contentedly.

It's a combination of deceitful trickery and logical tactics.

False moves, real moves, real to virtual, virtual to real are all common methods used by swordsmen.

But the difference between Nanban swordsmanship is that they will use logical thinking to analyze the situation of sword fighting.

When to attack, what effect to achieve, and what to do if the situation changes abruptly

These things that are fleeting in battle will be logically analyzed and compared with probability and risk and benefit. It is then up to the swordsman to decide which strategy to use.

This unique mindset makes the Nanban swordsmen not necessarily a good general, but on the battlefield alone, they are all tacticians!

Ashina was still laughing heartily, but his situation was not optimistic.

Rann made no mistakes at the tactical level, and he has been forcing Ashina to change positions with his strategy of attacking the weak and pressing continuously.

Pull it over, block the knife light on the left side of the body, and after another collision, it will be knocked back to the right side of the body.

There is no gap in the posture at all.

Tactical superiority means that as long as you don't make mistakes in execution, you will almost always have the advantage in your hands.

And Lan's execution is as terrifying as ever.

His sword was fast and steady, and the seemingly fierce attack did not cut his head at all, exposing his flank to his opponent.

The owl next to him, watching the young demon hunter pressing the [Sword Saint] all the way, was about to retreat to the wall of the Buddha hall where many Buddha statues were standing.

His bushy face was about to be stretched apart by a look of surprise, a bit like a frightened owl indeed.

And Lan En finally forced the old [Sword Master] to a time when there was no way to retreat.

The direction of the wind began to change.

The completely sealed underground is hidden in the Buddha Hall, but suddenly a breeze blows.

The witcher's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Thank you so much, Lanne."

In the brilliant sparks of the collision of swords, the curvature of the corners of the wizened old man's mouth slowly grew larger and larger.

"I was able to see interesting Nanban swordsmanship in return. Let's take a look at the 'sword' of the East! ”

As soon as the words fell, the vertical pupils of the witcher's cat's eyes suddenly contracted!

The sword of the Lake Maiden, which was supposed to press forward according to tactics, suddenly shrank back and stopped in front of him.

This was not enough, Lan En suddenly felt a sharp coolness lingering on his side face.

Before he had time to think about it, his left hand spread the hilt of his sword, blocking the armarmor of his left arm in the direction of the coolness.

"Wow !!" *2

The sparks exploded, and Reina Isshin, who was originally in a state of oppression, seemed to have dropped frames at this time.

Abruptly, it became a posture of Juhe slashing.

And it's not a knife stance. It's a gesture of retracting the knife back into the scabbard after the knife has been drawn!

Lan En's eyes widened!

He blocked the outside of the left arm armor on the side of his face, and suddenly there was a deep sword mark!

And Arondait, who was holding it in his right hand, was also skewed at a thirty-degree angle by the sudden and swift force.

What's more—with his dynamic vision, he didn't even notice that there were two cuts on the other side!

Are you fucking teasing me?!

Is this martial arts?!

Hit two places with different routes with one sword!

The surging force made Lan En's feet off the ground, and the whole person was 'carried' and flew backwards more than a meter away!

He looked incredulously at the emaciated old man who had risen from his low position again.

"It's amazing, isn't it, compared to the Nanban swordsmanship?"

The old man laughed.

"I've been idle in Ashina Castle, and I've taught a group of swordsmen. This is a guy called Sase Shisuke inside.,Specially improved [Reed Name Cross Slash]. Although judging from the trajectory of the air blade, it is an oblique 'two'. But it has to be said that it is indeed fast enough. ”

Reeda retracted the Golden Iron and Steel Dragon Knife from its scabbard and stuck it in his waist, as if he was not ready to fight.

Lan En tilted his head to look at the old man, and also withdrew the sword of the Lake Maiden.

He began to gasp, although not much, and there was a strange breathing method under control, but the noise in his lungs could not be blocked.

Ashin is getting old after all.

"It's almost this point. That Saise was so fast that he could kill the armor-piercing man with a wave of his hand, right? Although the hand is estimated to be unstable after the fact. ”

Lan En nodded approvingly and grinded his teeth.

"I feel that I also kind of understand what Dongying swordsmanship is all about."

Hearing this, Reed's eyes lit up.

"Oh? I didn't expect you to be a little savvy, but I'm more optimistic about you, Lan. ”
