Chapter 926: Beginners Learning of Spring and Autumn Sword Techniques
Li Mengxi has been very hardworking since he started practicing gun training. He got up very early in the morning, got dressed and ran outside. After running two laps, he started practicing without Zhang Fei's supervision. Li Mengxi was attentive enough.
On the 20th day, while he was practicing his spear, Guan Yu came over to teach him how to use the sword.
When Guan Yu was teaching, he held a wooden Qinglong knife in his hand and gave Li Mengxi a small one.
Before starting teaching, Guan Yu asked Li Mengxi to dance the sword twice by his own feeling.
This is not a problem for Li Mengxi. Li Mengxi has seen a lot of messy big sword routines.
Li Mengxi recalled the routines in his memory and practiced every move.
Li Mengxi thought that there seemed to be a move to fish out the moon from the bottom of the sea, which was to pick up the Qinglong Yanyue Sword from the ground, turn the blade upward, and at the same time, hold the sky upward with one hand.
Li Mengxi made this move, and Guan Yu frowned when he saw it.
Li Mengxi also thought of a move, which seemed to be like that in Peking Opera, holding the knife in his hand and walking around in a circle. Li Mengxi imitated it again.
Also, there is a kind of knife that is placed on the ground, with one hand pulling the handle and the other hand making a palm-pushing motion.
Guan Yu looked at Li Mengxi who was serious but didn't understand his moves, so he was looking for death. Guan Yu frowned deeper and deeper.
So-called, this is how you use a big sword in front of Mr. Guan.
What Li Mengxi understood about the routines and moves of the Spring and Autumn Sword were all wrong.
Guan Yu finally couldn't bear it anymore and called to stop.
Guan Yu couldn't bear it anymore and asked Li Mengxi to explain the purpose of the moves.
Li Mengxi did a fishing-for-moon pose, lifting the blade of the knife back and holding the sky up with his other hand.
"Yes, yes!" Guan Yu nodded, "That's it, with your hands on your head, what are you going to do?"
Li Mengxi stopped his movements and thought about his movements for a moment, "Putting your hands on top of your head, is it to block?"
Guan Yu was silent for a moment, "...with your hand, do you want to block a knife or a gun?
The Qinglong Sword weighs dozens of kilograms, can you carry it with one hand? Can you lift it by flipping it upwards?"
Li Mengxi vaguely knew that he was wrong, so he listened to Guan Yu's teachings honestly.
Guan Yu criticized all Li Mengxi's moves, but Guan Yu didn't criticize them as being worth mentioning.
Since Li Mengxi didn't know how to use a heavy sword, Guan Yu taught him the most basic skills.
Guan Yu taught Li Mengxi step by step, starting with holding the sword.
After Li Mengxi learned the basic knife-holding movements, another problem occurred. Because the wooden knife was too light, Li Mengxi used the knife like a windmill.
Guan Yu realized that this was not going to work, so he immediately sent someone to ask the blacksmith to make a small iron knife for teaching purposes.
There is an essential difference between the sword and spear skills. The spear is almost all about stabbing, while the sword is about cutting 90% of the time. This makes the sparring very different.
Guan Yu asked Li Mengxi to slash at him with his sword, and Li Mengxi took the sword and attacked.
The habit of learning to shoot is still there, and Li Mengxi is used to holding the handle of the knife on his waist.
Guan Yu saw that Li Mengxi was not doing something right and pointed it out.
Because the spear is long, the broadsword is short, the spear is light, and the broadsword is very heavy, so if you use the spear-rejection method to reject the knife, the knife will be too short in front of you, the sword's power will be too low, and it will be very energy-consuming to hold the knife flat.
The correct posture for holding a broad sword is to hold the sword.
Guan Yu showed the posture of holding the sword, with the tip of the sword pointing upwards, holding the sword in front of him with both hands, like holding a pipa.
Guan Yu explained the benefits of holding the sword, "The sword is held vertically, and the weight is on top, so it is easy to hold. This is one; second, the blade is held high, and the sword has high power and can be slashed down at any time. This is called being ready to strike;
Thirdly, if you are not strong enough, you can place the knife on your shoulder to gain some strength."
When Guan Yu said this, Li Mengxi completely understood.
The broadsword is indeed too heavy, especially Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue, which is even more astonishingly heavy. The Qinglong Yanyue broadsword, which is made of fine steel, is too heavy to withstand if held flat. Moreover, if you hold the sword flat, you have to use it again if you want to attack.
When the knife is raised, the attack method of the broadsword determines that it is not suitable for the flat end.
After Li Mengxi came to his senses, he also imitated Guan Yu and held the knife with its head tilted upward and the handle diagonally in front of his chest.
"Xi'er, attack!" Guan Yu invited Li Mengxi to attack.
Li Mengxi rushed towards Guan Yu with his sword raised, and slashed the sword at Guan Yu with a roar.
Guan Yu arrived first and waited for Li Mengxi to slash his sword. When Li Mengxi used up his strength, Guan Yu struck out with his sword and smashed Li Mengxi's sword to the ground.
Guan Yu only used a slight force and knocked the knife out of Li Mengxi's hand.
Wait for Li Mengxi to pick up the knife.
"Come again!" Guan Yu invited again.
Li Mengxi's fighting spirit remained undiminished, and he raised his knife to chop again.
It was still the same, Li Mengxi's sword snapped out, and then Guan Yu moved. Again, he struck last, and with exactly the same move, he smashed Li Mengxi's sword to the ground again.
This happened several times, and Li Mengxi gained a good memory. He cleverly made a vertical snap first, and then violently swung horizontally.
Guan Yu frowned and called to stop.
"Xi'er, you can't do this. How can you cut off half of it and change it into a knife?"
Li Mengxi was confused. He looked at the knife in his hand, then looked up at Guan Yu, "Why not?"
Guan Yu explained patiently, "The sword is so heavy, if you cut it out hard, it won't change."
"Why can't it change? If I hold back my strength, cut it out lightly, and leave half of my strength, won't it be able to change?"
Guan Yu was silenced by Li Mengxi's argument.
Guan Yu was silent for a long time. He glanced at Li Mengxi and said, "That's not the case. Did you change your sword midway to catch someone by surprise?"
Li Mengxi nodded, "That's true."
Guan Yu shook his head, "But you have to know that the Qinglong Sword is a heavy sword and can change quickly. This is not its strength, but its shortcoming.
Just think about it, with the Qinglong Dao weighing tens of kilograms, can you be faster than someone else's gun if you save your strength?
If you retain your strength, you will not be as fast as others, and if you lose your strength, your sword moves will be useless."
Li Mengxi looked solemn. He understood what Guan Yu said. The Qinglong Yanyue Sword was too heavy. No matter how heavy it was, it would be weak in terms of adaptability, and it could not compare with others.
The Qinglong Sword has only one advantage - it is powerful and heavy.
Guan Yu continued to teach earnestly, "If it is an ordinary long sword and the sword is light, it will be no problem to adapt to the situation. But my Qinglong Yanyue can sink no more, and its ability to adapt is also weak.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Therefore, when making the Qinglong Yanyue, the sword is only used to say that there is no return, and the force is withdrawn only to use the sword to cut again. The sword can only go straight forward, and the only way to hit it is to chop straight, without any impact.
In this way, you may understand?"
Li Mengxi completely understood that Guan Yu's sword technique was, to be precise, the Qinglong Yanyue Sword that weighed dozens of kilograms. This sword technique was a sword technique that could suppress a person with one force.
Li Mengxi lowered his head and looked at his little arms and legs. Li Mengxi thought to himself, when will his small body be able to possess such incredible strength? If his strength is not enough, how can he use his strength to achieve ten goals?
Li Mengxi asked Guan Yu with doubts. He asked, "General Guan, since the Qinglong Sword has only one powerful and heavy sword, and the sword is short, not as long as a spear, and not as light as a spear, then if the enemy attacks, I can't lift the sword as fast as him, how can I return?"
The knife is also slow to defend, so how to block it?"
Guan Yu stroked his long beard and said proudly, "No need to block."
Seeing that Li Mengxi was even more confused, Guan Yu then explained, "Use attack to counter attack, attack to block, and attack to defend. When he stabs you with a spear, use all your strength to chop the sword over. As long as you use enough strength, there is no need to force it."
With exquisite parrying, as long as the knife collides with the barrel of his gun, the impact will be deflected, or the barrel of his gun will be broken with one blow."
As he spoke, Guan Yu casually mentioned that in the past battles, those yellow scarf soldiers who used wooden spear shafts would be cut off by the Qinglong Dao with a sword. There has been no exception so far.
Well, you can use force to bully others. The Qinglong Sword is so heavy. Even if you hit it with the back of the knife instead of the blade, others won't be able to stop it.
Later, Guan Yu taught Li Mengxi how to fight attack with attack.
Guan Yu changed to a long stick, and Guan Yu stabbed Li Mengxi. Li Mengxi couldn't react with Guan Yu at first, and was confused by Guan Yu's feinting of the gun from left to right. He slashed out with a flick of the knife.
Seeing this, Guan Yu once again imparted his experience, "Xi'er, a broadsword is different from a spear. The broadsword is heavy, slow to attack, slow to accumulate momentum, and slow to return with the sword. If you use a spear and you fail to poke it accurately, just retract the spear and poke again.
But if you use a broadsword, if you strike out hastily and the force is not enough, the move will be useless.
Remember, you need to be calm and courageous when using a broadsword, look accurately, and use all your strength before cutting. A good cut with one cut is better than ten cuts in a hurry."
Li Mengxi solemnly bowed his fists and said he had been taught.
Li Mengxi felt a little weird. The Qinglong Sword was obviously an extremely rough and heavy weapon, but just like an assassin, he had to seize the opportunity, be calm enough, and hit every blow well. But the Qinglong Sword was so lethal, as long as it hit the target with one strike
The lighter one can cut off the enemy's weapons, while the more severe one can cut the enemy's weapons and people in half with one knife.
This is a critical attack flow, the attack frequency is slow, but the attack power is extremely terrifying, and it will be devastating if you hit it with a knife.
Li Mengxi absorbed the essence of the broadsword taught by Guan Yu. He kept in mind the words "A good cut is better than ten hasty cuts". He refused to draw the sword easily. He stared closely at the long stick in Guan Yu's hand. Guan Yu's stick
When stabbed, he would retreat if he could, dodge if he could, and would never attack unless he was completely sure.
In the end, it was done, with Guan Yu advancing step by step, and Li Mengxi retreating step by step with his sword in hand.
The two of them went around in circles like this for many times, and Guan Yu suddenly laughed.
Guan Yu found it funny. He was obviously using the Qinglong Yanyue Sword with all his might, but when he used it in Li Mengxi's hands, he became timid and cautious.
"Xi'er." Guan Yu stopped.
"Ah?" Li Mengxi was puzzled.
"You're wrong. The Green Dragon Sword is heavier than any other weapon, and it takes a lot of effort to hold it without moving.
Others' weapons are light, but yours is heavy. You cannot delay. If you delay for a long time, your strength will be exhausted first."
"Oh!" Li Mengxi suddenly realized, "Then I have to take the initiative to attack?"
"Yes!" Guan Yu nodded.
