Yamamoto's Kendo lies in immobility like a mountain?

After hearing what Yamamoto said, Li Xiao was stunned, and then subconsciously looked at the other party's lame right leg. Yes, Yamamoto, who is disabled and determined, estimates that he can't do these three points: "disease is like the wind, Xu is like the forest, and aggression is like fire". The only thing left to do is "stay as still as a mountain".

Suddenly, Li Xiao remembered that Bao kezhengjun had mentioned that Yamamoto had studied fencing under Suzuka Hara, and was praised as the first swordsman of Takeda family by this first master of Japanese swordsmanship. Li Xiao knows that the first thing Suzuka said about Yamamoto's sword skill is not how strong his actual combat ability is, but his understanding and application of kendo.

In Japanese, the word "art of war" has two meanings. One refers to the way of military allocation, that is, military strategy, and the other refers to kendo.

The way of military matching and kendo are interlinked. An excellent swordsmanship master is also a strategist. The two are combined into one.

In the five wheel book written by Miyamoto Musashi, there was a saying that the technique of defeating one person is no different from that of defeating 100000 people. Strategists can see the big from the small, just as they can carve a huge Buddha according to an inch high wooden figurine.

Therefore, a person who only knows fencing but does not know the art of war can only become a swordsman, not a master. It is just better than the three major sword schools in Japan, namely, Nian Liu, Shinto Liu and Yin Liu. At the same time, it is also called the three origins of art of war.

For example, suzuhara Bu Kan and Miyamoto Musashi became strategists from their swordsmanship. The disciples of suzuoka, Liu shengzongyan, the ancestor of Liu Shengxin Yinliu, and his descendants later became the military art guide of the Tokugawa Shogunate.

Similarly, Yamamoto, as a master of military strategy and art of war, integrates his understanding and application of art of war into his own kendo.

"To understand what Juhe is in kendo, we must understand the true meaning of 'immobility as a mountain'. Lord Li Xiao, you can attack me with your long gun now." Yamamoto kanzu said calmly.

Li Xiaochi doubted for a moment and said, "Lord Yamamoto, knives and guns have no eyes. Why don't we change wooden knives and guns."

Yamamoto Kan assistant shook his head and said, "only when life and death fight, life is an instant, is the time for a warrior to understand kendo. Lord Li Xiao, if you can't even avoid my Yamamoto sword and die here, then the result of your duel with Shigang Yiyu is the same, because his swordsmanship is only above me, not below me."

After hearing this, Li Xiao stared at Kazuo Yamamoto. At this moment, he finally understood what Juhe Kendo is.

Li Xiaoheng puts his gun away, while Yamamoto's assistant holds the handle and still doesn't pull out the scabbard of the samurai sword. Li Xiaoting stabbed with his gun. Yamamoto's inquisitor didn't move. He blocked Li Xiao's blow with a scabbard. Li Xiaocai will not try his best to stab Yamamoto to death. He must pass this competition, understand what Juhe Kendo is from Yamamoto, and improve the chance of winning the duel with Shigang Yiyu.

Therefore, Li Xiao has been carefully keeping a distance of more than two meters from Yamamoto's survey assistant, always staring at each other's right hand holding the knife, as well as the samurai sword hidden deep in the scabbard.

After one shot, Li Xiao felt Yamamoto's chest together. It seemed that he took a deep breath in a very fast time and held the breath in his chest. After completing the process of gaining momentum, Yamamoto suddenly took two steps forward with his right foot. It was very fast. It was difficult to write to the other party that he was lame.

The distance between the two people retracted in an instant. Yamamoto's inquisitor lowered his body and avoided Li Xiao's spear. At the same time, he held the scabbard's left thumb and pushed it up, and his right hand pulled out the hilt steadily and forcefully.

Take a breath for a moment, Yamamoto kamaku shouted. The samurai sword came out of its scabbard. The bright blade moved slowly at first and became faster when it slid to the middle. When the blade tip was about to come out of the carp's mouth, the speed of the sword was as fast as an electro-optic flint.

At this moment, Li Xiao saw the determination in Yamamoto's eyes and felt the fierce murderous spirit. As he said, this knife really wants to kill himself without any hesitation and hesitation. There is no delay between the sabres. Yamamoto's inquisition is to decide whether to win or lose under this sabre. Either you die or I live.

The so-called Juhe was the art of drawing a knife at that time, and the core was to kill with one blow.

In the Nara dynasty or the early Heian era in ancient Japan, when samurai were fighting on the battlefield, when weapons such as guns, spears and razors were broken or shot down, they suddenly pulled out the Taidao worn on their waist to kill the enemy, so as to turn defeat into victory.

The practice method of knife drawing is also different. Normally, the sword method practiced by samurai is standing and fighting, and the knife drawing is practicing kneeling posture from beginning to end.

It can often be seen in Japanese films that a samurai goes to each other's house and kneels at the table opposite his master. Chatting and chatting, the two sides disagreed. The warrior suddenly pulled out his sword and killed each other with a knife in a kneeling posture before the master could take precautions. The blood splashed within five steps.

The so-called knife does not come out of the sheath, which makes the opponent unable to estimate the length of the knife, but he knows it well, and then he has the upper hand in the first move of the knife coming out of the sheath. So as to kill the other party at the moment of drawing the knife, and the victory or defeat is determined by one move.

At the moment when Yamamoto kamaku pulled out his knife, Li Xiao felt that his back was wet with sweat and chilly.

There is no doubt that Yamamoto really wants to kill himself under this knife. At this critical moment, Li Xiao really made a decision, that is, abandon the gun and retreat.

Yamamoto did not expect Li Xiao to retreat. For a warrior, the knife or gun in his hand is his second life. If he discards it, he will lose the honor of a warrior.

However, Li Xiao is not a Japanese samurai and has no such concept at all. Li Xiao suddenly dodged back and avoided Yamamoto's knife to help make a decision on life and death. Then Li Xiao followed a backward jump and rolled in the snow, completely jumping out of the attack range of Yamamoto's samurai sword.

After standing again, Li Xiao pulled out the rib difference between his waist at the same time, ready to deal with the next blow of Yamamoto. The core of Juhe Kendo is to kill with one blow. Although Li xiaomingbai was a little embarrassed to avoid, Yamamoto kamaku didn't kill himself with this knife, and his advantage was lost.

However, in fact, Yamamoto kamaku did not pursue. Instead, he shook his wrist and slowly retracted the knife back to the scabbard. His posture was leisurely.

Yamamoto looked at Li Xiao, smiled and asked, "Lord Li Xiao, do you know what Juhe is now?"

Li xiaoha smiled: "is it right? When you don't move, it's as stable as a mountain. When you move, you'll kill with one blow."

Yamamoto nodded and said: "Yes, when ordinary people practice Juhe Kendo, they only see the swiftness of the sword when it is pulled out of the scabbard, but they ignore the momentum before pulling out the sword and the inner meditation. During the duel, they should look directly at each other's sword. If they blink because of fear, they will shake their will. They can't reach the realm of motionless mountain pointing directly at their original heart in their life. This is the Kendo I helped by Yamamoto."

After saying this, Yamamoto supported the scabbard on the ground again, turned and limped away.

Li Xiao stayed where he was, thinking about Yamamoto's words, standing alone in the ice and snow.

Juhe Kendo, I've heard its name for a long time.

In his opinion, the original idea of looking for a local Japanese martial arts master to learn marksmanship has long gone.

In fact, four months after coming to Japan, Li Xiao, after constant competition and confrontation, was strong enough and accumulated strong self-confidence when he first learned the shooting skills of veteran cadres.

It's better to sharpen yourself than to seek outside.

In such a duel three days later, let me use the marksmanship of the Ming Dynasty to be Japan's current swordsman. Li Xiao thought of it.
