A spear has a spike as its head, a pole as its body, and a root as its tail. Holding a spear was called "dragon holding" in Japan of this era, which shows its high status.
The gun is also a must-have weapon for samurai to go into battle. In this era, very few enemies were directly killed by samurai swords on the battlefield. The most killed enemies were gunshot wounds and arrow wounds. Therefore, the quality of spearmanship is an important factor in evaluating the combat effectiveness of samurai.
Indicators, warriors are also proud to be able to practice advanced spear skills.
In the field, Shichiroji's knees were slightly bent, his waist was lowered, and his hands were holding two 4-meter-long spears in his hands one after another. The pickaxe-shaped spear spikes shone with a cold light.
Within this distance, the big spear in Qicilang's hand can advance forward, draw sideways, cut horizontally, strike upwards, move backwards, avoid and trip. It can be said that attack and defense are integrated, without any flaws.
It's not that Kazuyo Sorayama has never competed with big guns. When he was just beginning to master swordsmanship, he competed with masters from all over the world and opponents who used various weapons. He saw all kinds of weird moves and techniques, which opened his eyes. Among them were
It includes various schools of spearmanship in Japan. Kazuyo Sorayama even studied spearmanship carefully for a period of time, which was also of great help to his own swordsmanship.
Unlike swordsmanship, which focuses on footwork and body skills, big spear focus is mainly on the waist, hips and arms.
Because most ordinary weapons, including swords, are dead objects and mainly used by people, body skills are the key; but guns are living objects, with hardness in the soft, softness in the hardness, and the body of the gun shaking and moving, which has powerful power in itself.
vitality.
This most powerful weapon born out of war has never had the concept of "dodge" whether on horseback or on foot. Instead, it uses a gun to lead people, and the people and guns become one, and the length of the gun body is used to create an absolute domain within a certain space.
, forcing the opponent to avoid it, or even avoiding it.
To be fair, the last thing Sorayama Kazuha wants to face is a master who uses a gun. The gun is much longer than the sword, which already accounts for 70% of the advantage; and the huge difference in weight makes it impossible for the sword to block effectively, and even has to try its best to block it.
Avoid weapon collisions.
In the last era, he had competed with gun masters from Hohoin-ryu and Kunryu.
The reason why he can win is not that he is superior in kendo skills, but because he uses his talent of time too powerfully. He will always catch the opponent's false attack and hit the real one, and use his body skills to attack the big gun circle at the moment when the virtual and real changes.
, the battle ends within the 3-Liang style, so every win is very thrilling, far not as easy as fighting with other weapons.
Shichiroji's gaze was in line with the tip of the spear, and the end of his gaze fell on the center of Kazuyo Sorayama's chest and abdomen. As Kazuyo Sorayama continued to approach, the tip of Shichiroji's spear was always aimed at Kazuyo Sorayama's middle position and never deviated from it.
Every cent.
It can be seen from his posture that Shichiroji must have been taught by a master of spear skills, and he himself is quite experienced in the use of spear skills.
Kazuyo Sorayama did not draw the sword in advance, but held the handle of the sword firmly with his left hand, and swung his right hand freely as he moved forward, without any defensive measures or attack tendency at all.
However, there were faint stains of sweat on Shichiroji's forehead. In his eyes, every movement of Sorayama Kazuha was impeccable. Regardless of whether he struck left or right, it seemed that any attack he launched would lead to a thunderous counterattack from Sorayama Kazuha.
Every time Sorayama Kazuha takes a step forward, Shichiroji takes a step back, always keeping a distance and preventing his opponent from entering the attack range of his big gun. Yes, because entering his own attack range means that he must make a move, otherwise he will never
If you don't have time to retreat, you will be bullied by the opponent and lose.
[We can no longer retreat! Sorayama-kun will always have no flaws, so how can he ever retreat?] Shichiroji calmed his mind, shouted loudly, and struck downward with all his strength, and the two-and-a-half-foot long blade went straight to the top of Sorayama Kazuyo's head.
Shichiroji never expected to achieve success with one strike. If this attack was dodged by Sorayama Kazuha, he could withdraw the gun body along with the falling force of the gun, change from holding the tail with both hands to holding the gun in the middle, and Sui Xian in front could still point at the opponent.
, the lower part of the gun body can also be swung forward to trap the opponent's legs. It can be said to be a combination of offense and defense. Generally, the opponent will never be able to take advantage of the situation to counterattack.
Kazuyo Sorayama couldn't help but smile when he saw Shichiroji making moves. It seemed that the spear skills of this era were born not long ago on the battlefield. In terms of moves, they were far from as rich as those of later generations.
When I competed with the masters of the Hohoin style, I was so proficient in using the fourteen books of the watch that Ichiyo Sorayama once suffered a lot. When I used it, I got one stick, five sticky flowers, half a crown, ten, and a rolled gun.
, phase, lead down, tube, sudden pull, scale, combined call, far eye and other moves, from probing to counterattack, it can be said to be everything, enough to perfectly deal with any situation.
Kazuyo Sorayama's thoughts did not hinder his movements at all. Seeing that the opponent's sharpest spike was about to fall on top of his head, Kazuyo Sorayama did not dodge or block. Instead, without moving his upper body, he rubbed his steps and took half a step back.
In order to ensure the space advantage, Shichiroji's big gun is already at its farthest attack range at this time. Even if he sees that his opponent is only one finger away from the tip of his gun, he is unable to use the gun to attack again; and the originally planned last move is to close the attack.
He fired back with his gun, but Kazuyo Sorayama's retreat completely disrupted his plan!
This made Shichiroji's movements freeze for a moment. When he made up his mind to withdraw the big gun, he saw Sorayama Kazuyo leisurely following the tip of the gun into within four feet of him. In his feeling, the big gun in his hand was like
There is a string tied to the kite. If you pull the string and retreat, the kite will also move forward. Sorayama Kazuha is the kite tied to the gun blade!
In the eyes of the onlookers, Kazuyo Sorayama seemed to be being pulled forward by Shichiroji with invisible force, but the opponent's spear tip did not even touch his broad front, and his sword could kill him with a single blow at any time!
This miraculous way of coping left all the warriors stunned!
Kazuyo Sorayama held the sword in his right hand and swung the gun body with the sheath. With the force of the rebound, the direction of the blade lightly touched Shichiroji's neck. If this was the unsheathed blade, Shichiroji's head would have been removed by now.
Jiuzang's cheeks were flushed, and his chest was rising and falling. It seemed that he was consuming more energy than Ichiyo Sora in the field.
He clenched his fists tightly and then slowly unclenched them. The previously indestructible swordsman's heart seemed to have loosened slightly at this time: every time he saw Kazuyo Sorayama take action, the opponent would always pretend that he could never do it, or even imagine that he could not do it.
Victory can be won by adopting the correct response method, which cannot be explained by the gap in realm.
The only thing that is certain is that all the whimsical ideas in Kazuyo Sorayama's mind are based on natural changes. There is no move that can match this genius' imagination. Even if he breaks through to the realm of swordsman, I am afraid that he will never be a master.
Kazuyo Sorayama’s opponent!
This discovery was a huge blow to Jiuzang. Although he was only discouraged for a short time, the image of Sorayama Kazuha in his heart has changed from an evenly matched opponent at the beginning, a forerunner with a higher realm than himself, to now he has become completely incomparable.
The dangerous peak to climb gave Jiuzang the feeling of being completely invincible.
But Shichiroji did not have such a strong reaction as Kuzo. He understood that his martial arts, which was originally much lower than Sorayama Kazuha, could not be compensated for by using a big gun. In addition to making Shichiroji admire Sorayama Kazuha even more,
There is also a kind of sigh: there are such people in the world.
Kazuyo Sorayama retracted his sword, and his hoarse voice did not contain any joy after victory: "Yes, in fact, I am not as relaxed as you think." Shichiroji raised his big gun, and said with a sincere smile on his honest face: "Sir Sorayama is too modest.
Yes, although my martial arts skills are ordinary, I have charged and killed many times on the battlefield, but I have never seen anyone as extraordinary as you. Perhaps only those legendary swordsmen have such martial arts skills."
The samurai walked up to the two of them. Kanbei and Kazuo looked at Sorayama, with excitement beyond words, and shouted loudly: "With Lord Sorayama, the outcome of this war is determined!"
All the warriors raised their arms and shouted loudly, and their inspiring voices echoed in the mountains for a long time.
