Pillars of the Wu family

Chapter 149 Spear Technique Teaching

Tsukahara Buden, who was watching from the sidelines, nodded from time to time, and occasionally criticized the strengths and weaknesses of the two of them with Yamamoto Tokiyuki, in exchange for how he should defeat the opponent with a sword, but he figured out Nakajo Ryu in twenty rounds Buden Tsukahara suddenly asked: "How old is Dewa Shouden this year? How many years has he practiced? How has his practice been in recent years?"

Tokiyuki Yamamoto thought about it for a while, and then replied: "Izuhaden was born on May 17th in the fourth year of Tianwen. I am [-] years old this year. I don't know how many years I have practiced. It should be practiced since I was a child! Because I have to take on official duties, Izuba Mamoru In the past two years, regardless of the cold, heat, rain or snow, the temple practiced for at least three hours a day."

"Kazuha was born in the second year of Tianwen, and there is a two-year age difference between the two. In this way, Kazuha lost." Buden Tsukahara clapped his hands, and Kazuha Shioka, who was fighting fiercely opposite him, immediately retreated, and Tokihide Nakajo also took advantage of the situation After retreating and stopping, the two fought against each other dozens of times in just a quarter of an hour. In such a short while, both of them were soaked in sweat from hair to clothes.

"This trial match is a draw!" Tsukahara Buden made the final decision. Naturally, others would not talk too much, but what he said next caused an uproar. The talent is better, the old man intends to accept Yu Shoudian as his disciple, but I don't know what De Yu Shoudian wants?"

Tsukahara Buden took the initiative to accept disciples, which was something he hadn't encountered in many years. When everyone was stunned, Nakajo Tokihide hurriedly leaned over and said, "Tokihide is very willing to worship Tsukahara Den as his teacher!"

Shioka Kazuha glared at Nakajo Tokihide unhappily, and then knelt on the ground and raised his head to protest: "Master! Why do you say that his talent is higher than mine? I don't agree with it!"

"How long has Kazuha been with this old man?" Buden Tsukahara asked patiently.

Shioka Kazuha said respectfully: "It has been ten years since I followed Master when I was nine years old!"

"So how long have you practiced every day in the past ten years?"

"More than five hours!" Shioka Kazuha is very proud of his hard work. More than five hours is ten to eleven hours. Besides the time for eating, sleeping and resting in between, there is almost no room for personal activities. No wonder He will be so confident.

"Then do you know how old this Nakajo Idehamori is? The old man tells you, he is 17 years old this year! In the past two years, he has practiced for three hours a day. You can practice without distractions, but he has to do the duty that a samurai should bear. Obligation, who is higher and who is lower?"

"This... this..." Shioka Kazuha was a little discouraged. Although his talent is top-notch, it is not the best among Tsukahara Buden's apprentices. For example, Mitsuhide Yunlinyuan is their senior brother. This gentleman is not only talented He has an outstanding mind, and is also the most hopeful person among his peers to obtain the ultimate meaning. Compared with the extraordinary patience and tenacious willpower of his elder brother, he feels that he is still far behind.

Buden Tsukahara walked over and took the two men's arms, patted them on the shoulder and said: "We, strategists, are the most important thing to focus on. If your mind is unstable, no matter how good your sword skills are, you will not be able to use them. Both of you are talented, don't be fooled." Hurt by a little setback, we must always refrain from it."

The two looked at each other and bowed to say yes, Tsukahara Buden said to Kirayoshi again: "I'm here to borrow His Highness Sakamoto's retainers for use, and I will definitely return it as it is in a year! Hehe...Farewell!"

From the beginning to the end, Buden Tsukahara spoke alone, and there was no chance for others to intervene. When the last person walked away, he said: "Just take away the love of my family, this old man is really rude!"

"Cough! His Highness Yunlinin lives in Kita Ermaru's house! Regarding the teaching of the house governor and other matters, I will entrust His Highness Yunrinin's guidance on spear skills!" Yamamoto Tokiyuki interjected helplessly.

Mitsuhide of Yunlin Institute had a good self-cultivation. He smiled at the slightly embarrassed Kira Yoshihide, and said, "Please don't worry Sado Shouden! I will definitely teach His Highness Sakamoto all I can."

Japan's spear art started very late, and it was not until the late Kamakura period that it began to break away from the naginata art to form a unique genre. During this period, it absorbed the spear art taught by the survivors who fled from the Southern Song Dynasty, and then began to flourish on a large scale, because The influence of Mongolia's two cross-sea expeditions has made the traditional way of bowing and horse riding of Kamakura samurai no longer advisable. Samurai from all over the world have begun to train and replace their spears, and ashigaru has also evolved from it.

The basics of spearmanship taught by Mitsuhide Yunlin Academy are also very simple, such as standing with the spear, simple stabbing, chopping and other corrections, because the origin of Japanese spears is different from the ash pole spears in the Song and Ming Dynasties. Japanese spears are all hardwood The gun, and the blade of the gun maintains the characteristics of the naginata and is very long. The blood groove is kept on the head of the gun, and the whole head of the gun is nailed into hardwood.

For example, the origin of the large body spear most used by samurai is different from that of the naginata, but a variant of the Modao. Because the blade of the gun is more than one foot long, it can perform actions such as chopping, stabbing, and chopping, and the combat method is different from Chinese spear techniques. It is slightly different, because the gun body is made of hardwood, mainly for puncture and piercing, and then with chopping, diagonal chopping, cross-cutting and other techniques.

After a few days of getting familiar with the basics of spearmanship, Yunlinyuan Mitsuhide also figured out the characteristics of Kira Yoshitoshi and began to give targeted guidance. In addition, Kira Yoshitoshi has practiced for several years with a good foundation in swordsmanship, and the speed of entry is very fast. The next step is to master the correct ones. Posture exercises such as spear-piercing, spear-splitting and other basic skills training, each movement has to be practiced a thousand times, if he didn't have the foundation of sword practice, he would be exhausted to death.

One evening, Yoshitoki Kira dragged his exhausted body to finish his training for the day, and Gengoro Watanabe ran over with Mitsuya Honda and asked, "Master, why don't you learn spear skills from my father?"

"In the future, there will be more opportunities to learn. My family will first learn the Katori Shinto school's spear technique, and then learn the Watanabe family's spear technique. It will be more effective." In fact, Kira Yoshimi did not want to learn the Katama spear technique. Halberd weapons are difficult to balance due to the protruding twigs on one side of the gun blade. From ancient times to the present, this long halberd soldier has been the most difficult to train regardless of China or foreign countries.

Of course Watanabe Takatsuna, who is known as Gun Hanzo, is also proficient in plain spear skills, but he doesn't think that the plain spear skills taught by Watanabe Takatsuna will be better than that of Unrin-in Mitsuhide. According to Takigawa Keijiro, who practiced at the Hozoin Temple of Kofukuji Temple, Yin Rong of Hozoin Temple was good at many kinds of spear skills, among which the large body spear skill was not inferior to the self-created jujumoni gun. Kind of spear.

The spring broadcast ended in early March, and there was no news of a war coming from Kinai. The Rokkaku family, which had been silent for a long time, came to the door. Yoshida Izumo, Moriya Shigemasa, who was born in the Rokkaku clan of Sasaki, sent someone to find the Kira family, saying that he liked it. Naito Masanari's talent, wanted to accept Naito Masahiro as a disciple, and passed on the secret technique of Hiki-ryu archery to him.

For this matter, Yoshitoki called Naito Masanari over again, and asked: "Yoshida Shigemasa of the Hioki-ryu, this Hioki-ryu is the originator of the new archery genre since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Masanari, would you like to learn it?"

"I also want to see Hioki-ryu's archery. Please don't worry, my master. I will be able to participate in it in a month or three months." Naito Masamari seems to be very interested in this proposal. With his bow It really didn't take too long to learn the art. As the top archer at that time, he only needed to master the secrets of Hioki-ryu to become a teacher. He was very confident about this. play tricks.

After the initial strong response to the money writing order, the two money houses in Kyoto and Sakamoto are basically operating normally, and the basic functions of the money houses can be displayed. The deposit and withdrawal of money and goods between Sakamoto and Kyoto only charge [-]% of the handling fee. It can bring an objective benefit to the money house, because the money house has been facing a lack of Yongle money, and the exchange between the two is still in a state of limited exchange, allowing one hundred Yongle money to be exchanged every day. At the beginning, the profit of unlimited exchange will be much less.

This is also a matter of no choice. Yongle money was originally a currency of the high currency system. In the Ming Dynasty, such copper coins were hardly circulated. The original intention of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di to cast Yongle Tongbao was the currency of foreign trade. When Ji Liangyi wanted to cast regular Yongle coins gradually Instead of messy money, there is also a deeper idea.
