Chapter 68: Tang Knife Technique

And the Tang Dynasty is one of the most powerful periods of China's armed forces, when the invincible Tang knife art in the world is absolutely indispensable, according to the literature, the Tang knife and the Japanese knife are still different, people unearthed in later generations with the burial as a decorative Tang knife test results, are heavier and sharper than the Japanese light fluttering knife is much thicker and sharper, that is, the materials of the knife are not imitated by future generations, but unfortunately the Chinese themselves are not angry, the Tang Dynasty fell into a period of weakness because of civil strife, coupled with the later foreign invasion, completely destroyed the most glorious dynasty in Chinese history。 Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, in the final analysis, it was the Tang people themselves who destroyed themselves, so that the alien race had an opportunity, and the various ethnic groups that had been suppressed by the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years had a deep fear of the Tang knife, and after entering the Central Plains, in addition to robbing and slaughtering the Han people, it was also the Tang knife and the people who made the Tang knife were wiped out, and any private Tang knife and the craftsman who knew how to make the Tang knife were brutally slaughtered, and the manufacturing process of the Tang knife itself was extremely complicated, and the original process made the modern with highly developed science and technology could not imitate, it is conceivable that in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, there may not be a manufacturing method that few people understand, and a few people lost all in this Central Plains catastrophe。

Of course, with the wisdom of the Chinese, there will never be compromises, and there will always be people who will pass down the skills of the Tang Dao from generation to generation, as for the reason why it was lost in the end. I'm afraid it's because of the Han people themselves, another regime after the Tang Dynasty ------ the Song Dynasty.

It can be said that the Song Dynasty is a strange thing in the history of the Chinese nation, because the status of the dynasty is not right, it is very afraid of the resistance of the civil forces, so it pours the strength of the whole country to castrate martial arts, ostensibly flaunting civilization, depreciating power in the cultural field, preaching that everything is inferior only to high reading, looking down on military generals, and suppressing all martial arts schools in specific actions. However, unlike the brutality at home, it grovels to the outside world and pays tribute every year to survive. Completely spineless. In this way, until the last moment of the fall of the Song Dynasty, this ostrich-like national policy was implemented, thinking that burying one's head in the sand could eliminate the threat of the enemy, how sad. The emperors of the Song Dynasty were so stupid that they couldn't look at it directly. This repression lasted for 319 years.

It is under these 300 years of self-castration that the Chinese's qi and blood have been exhausted, and the famous Tang Dao and Tang Dao have completely disappeared in the long river of history, and the famous Dao has declined, only the island country at that time inherited some details of Tang Dao Technique, and developed into Japanese kendo in the long years after that.

This is just the beginning, and in the long river of time, because of the mistakes of the Song Dynasty, the Chinese nation has suffered for more than a thousand years, and it was not until the development of science and technology that the hard-working and intelligent Chinese people have returned to the peak of the world's famous nations.

Aside from these national feelings, the Tang knife itself is a representative of the combination of strength and speed, and the Tang knife is known for its armor piercing, but it is not a Japanese knife that blindly pursues knife speed and turns the Tang knife into a thin layer of paper.

The real Tang knife is between the sword, with a single-sided blade, which has both the thickness of the knife and the dexterity of the sword. In this way, you can better exert your own powerful characteristics, and the sword of this world is the same as the traditional sword is a double-edged opening.

Double-edged Kaifeng is not without advantages, the sword is the king of a hundred soldiers, it is because it has the most blade surfaces in the weapon, which means that the operation is abnormal test technology, Wang Lin thinks that he is not a genius of swordsmanship, in addition to learning swordsmanship is to use the skills of card characters, the card uses Japanese swordsmanship, and the memory and cultivation method brought to Wang Lin is also Japanese swordsmanship, if he wants to learn traditional swordsmanship, he has to find someone to teach himself, and now he will definitely not be able to find it in a short time, and Wang Lin does not think that Tang swordsmanship must be weaker than traditional swordsmanship。 Although this is only the Japanese kendo of Xibei, it is also a kind of inheritance of Tang sword.

The most important thing in practicing swordsmanship is the basics, and no matter how tall the swordsman is, how gorgeous the swordsmanship is, it is nothing more than these basic swordsmanship

When practicing the knife at the beginning, the horse's steps should be wide, and the center of gravity should be low in order to stabilize the body. Open and close in order to stretch the muscles and bones, and clarify the knife position. For example, practicing calligraphy, first practice large characters and then small characters, the purpose is to be meticulous in small characters. The knife technique is also practiced from wide opening and large to light and fine without loss

In Tachibana Youkyo's memory, there is a passage from his teacher: "Remember to raise the knife first, and when practicing the next split, you can use the front bow and back arrow steps, and practice a certain number of times on average." For example, 50 times each, and then practice splitting up and down the horse a certain number of times. Then get into the horse and chop. Do not enter the horse while raising a knife. Because the middle door is wide open when the knife is raised, it is easy for the enemy to take the opportunity to stab the throat or chest when entering the horse at this time. Even if you practice it alone, you should also develop good habits. In fact, in actual combat (, it is rare to make such a big move. Unlike on the battlefield, where armor is pierced, there is no need to split the enemy in half. Swords are inherently sharp, and a single cut can cripple and die. But as a basic exercise, this movement is indispensable. ”

Chopping is different from splitting, both from top to bottom, chopping should be done with both hands in front of the chest, elbows slightly bent, and the back hand (left hand) is about the height of the solar plexus (commonly known as the heart socket or chicken heart). When chopping, mainly use the right hand to push the knife forward, the left hand slightly pulled back, both hands as far forward as possible, after the blow also make the tip of the knife chop down to the height of the shoulder. Unlike chopping, chopping mainly uses the elbow and wrist to exert force. The bow should not be drawn back before the knife is drawn, and the blade and horizon should not be greater than 90 degrees. This is a very common and practical move.

The horse step also takes the front bow and the back arrow, both left and right. It is advisable to use a sliding step to enter the horse, to push the ground with the back foot, to step forward with the front foot, and then to follow up with the back foot. Due to the small time gap between chopping and returning to the knife, the gap in the body is also small. Therefore, the return and exit movements can be performed at the same time as progressing.

Chopping requires strong forearm strength, and it can also be practiced while sitting and standing at home when you have free time, because the movements are not large. But remember to be safe and face the wall.

Stabbing:

It can be divided into two-handed stabbing and one-handed stabbing. Originally, there was no definite way to fight, and it was okay to stab any part of the enemy. However, the base practice should be based on the enemy's chest. Stabbing the enemy's head can be fatal and disabled. However, due to the small target and the flexible dodge of the head, it is easy to stab the air and is taken advantage of by the enemy. Piercing the abdomen cannot immediately render the enemy incapacitated, and it is not advocated as the main goal.

1. Two-handed stab: still do the front bow and back lunge, left and right. Use the preparation of the country to instruct the country, double ** for stride or slide forward, both hands stabbed forward at the same time, the right hand and shoulder level as a degree. This move is quite awkward at first, and the tip of the knife is wobbly. It is not advisable to use force at the beginning of the exercise, but after slowly getting used to it, the elbow joints of both hands will gradually be stretched, the movement will become more natural, and the tip of the knife will be stable. Those who have practiced straight boxing should have a feeling.
