Chapter 22 Understanding
"Uncle Yun, I finally understand that it was your momentum that overwhelmed me and made me lose my determination before I fought."
Zhao Yun's face showed a look of approval. He stood with his hands behind his hands and said slowly, "In fact, there is no insurmountable gap between people. Innate physical qualifications are very important, but the later practice and understanding of martial arts are also indispensable. The momentum you mentioned is just one of the three-character tips for practicing martial arts.
Zhao Yun's words were like a lighthouse in the vast sea, which made Liu Feng, who was wandering, find the right direction. He immediately said solemnly, "Uncle Yun, please make it clear."
"The three-character tips of martial arts are 'force', 'skill', and 'potential'. The so-called force is the power that a person can use, such as the knife we just had. Although the momentum is like a rainbow, if the force is soft and weak, if you encounter an enemy whose strength is stronger than yourself, you can not only hurt the other party with one knife, but also be injured by the anti-shock force. This force is the foundation of martial arts. People like Xu Chu are naturally strong and powerful, but if they can hone their bodies for a long time and enhance their strength through later efforts, they can also reach the peak of their strength.
Zhao Yun's explanation of force is not difficult for Liu Feng to understand. It's just like boxing. Lightweight players hit ten punches in a row, but they can't shake their opponents because they don't have enough strength, and heavyweight players can easily knock lightweight players to the ground with just one blow.
"If a person has a divine power, a knife is as heavy as a thousand catties, but if he just cuts randomly with brute force, there is no rules. In this way, the opponent only needs to avoid fighting, let your best, and a simple blow can be fatal. Therefore, after having strength, there must be the skill to use this power correctly, which is the so-called 'skill' formula. However, the real skill is not pure cleverness, but the perfect combination of speed and vision. Discover the enemy's flaws with your eyes, and break through the flaws before the enemy returns to defense with speed. Of course, this also requires long-term hard training.
Liu Feng chewed every word Zhao Yun said carefully, and then confirmed it with his actual combat on the battlefield a few days ago, and gradually had a feeling of benefit.
After expounding the concept of power and skills, Zhao Yun continued: "The last word formula is what you just called 'potential'. It is a belief that will win from the inside, and the determination to despise everything. If force and skill are a blow to the enemy **, then the powerful force is a spiritual attack on the enemy. More than a decade ago, during the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao had a famous general named Yan Liang, but in one move, his second uncle Yun Chang took the head among all armies. The key to Yun Chang's death of the enemy was the power that made heaven and earth awe-inspiring.
While Zhao Yun's words deeply shocked Liu Feng, he also solved the doubts that had been confused for him.
Liu closed his eyes and carefully recalled the battle with Xu Chu. Before that man took action, he was completely shocked by the momentum of the other party's killing. What he saw in his eyes, only Xu Chu's murderous eyes were shrouded in that kind of fear and tension.
That is to say, his spiritual power has been disturbed by Xu Chu, and he has no time to pay too much attention to the hidden essence under Xu Chu's powerful killing force: such as the way of the knife and the direction of the attack. Even when Xu Chu's knife came, his hand holding the weapon was shaking unconsciously.
Liu Feng took a deep breath: "Uncle Yun, I understand that the so-called 'potential' is actually a soldier in the art of war."
Zhao Yun's eyes lit up: "The eldest son is really smart, and your metaphor for military tactics is very appropriate. In fact, 'force' is like the number of soldiers, combat effectiveness and military discipline in an army. A powerful army is its foundation. And 'skill' is like the way to use the army for the generals. If the generals have no strategy, no matter how powerful the army is, it will undoubtedly be defeated. As for the situation, it is more like the strength of a country. When your national strength is strong enough, you don't need to use troops at all. Just a letter of intimidation is enough to subdue the enemy.
Liu Feng just slightly linked his understanding of the situation with the art of war, but he didn't expect Zhao Yun to follow the situation and make a more vivid metaphor. At this time, Liu Feng's heart suddenly became cheerful, and he was confused about martial arts, but now he is relieved in an instant.
Looking at Zhao Yun in front of him, Liu Feng is both grateful and admiration. What he is grateful for is that he is not stingy about himself. What he admires is his analysis of martial arts and military tactics. He can recognize the essence of war at the national level. Zhao Zilong is indeed worthy of a generation of famous generals.
"Thank you, Uncle Yun, for your advice." Liu Feng hugged his fist to thank him, but sighed, "Just with my qualifications, I don't know how long it will take to practice the three-character formula of martial arts to the peak level of Uncle Yun."
Zhao Yun smiled faintly and said, "With the quality of the eldest son, as long as he is willing to endure hardships and be willing to pay attention, it is only a matter of time before surpassing Zhao Yun. However, if you want to practice the three-character formula to the peak level, I'm afraid I haven't even reached it yet.
"Uncle Yun is humble. Your strength is known to everyone in the world. Even you can't practice the three-character formula to the peak. I'm afraid no one in the world can reach this level."
Zhao Yun looked up at the vast starry sky and sighed, "After all, people are just flesh and blood. As they grow older, people's bodies and reactions will decline irreversibly. The vast majority of people, after a lifetime, may only practice one or two of the three-character formulas to the peak, and can practice all three formulas to the peak in their lifetime. It can be said that the god of war, this kind of person, I have only been to one in my life.
"Who is it?" Liu Feng's eyebrows surged with curiosity.
Zhao Yun came to the armor rack, picked up a halberd and said the man's name: "Lv Bu."
'I forgot him. The famous generals of this era are a little arrogant, but no one dares to claim to be the first in the world. Lv Bu is really right.'
In a short silence, Liu Feng greedily digested Zhao Yun's instructions, while Zhao Yun recalled the surge of the wind and clouds in those years.
While the two were thinking about each other, suddenly a soldier of Liu Bei walked to the hospital and arched his hand and said, "Sir, General Zilong, the lord has something important to do. Please go and discuss it quickly."
"It's so late, hasn't the master rested yet?" Zhao Yun looked back at Liu Feng, and his eyes showed a little doubt.
At the right time, it was almost time to go to bed and rest. Liu Bei chose to summon them at this time. Obviously, he didn't want to be too loud. Liu Fengyin felt that Liu Bei's so-called important thing was likely to have something to do with Liu Qi.
With this in mind, Liu Feng's mood suddenly became alert: "Since my father has something important to discuss, let's go to see him as soon as possible."
