Ancient weapons knife and gun

Ancient weapons knife and gun, in the "eighteen blades" ranked one or two. Knife ranked first, the big knife is known as "the first of a hundred soldiers", "the handsome of a hundred soldiers", the short sword has "the gall of a hundred soldiers", "knife such as a fierce tiger The short sword has "the guts of all soldiers" and "the sword is like a tiger". The gun ranked second, is a long weapon, known as the "king of the hundred soldiers".

According to the "Interpretation of Names - Military Interpretation", "25 History", "Zuo Zhuan", "Bamboo Book Chronicles" and other historical records, the knife, the gun (spear) as a single major combat weapon, is in the chariot out of the battlefield. The first large number of military equipment is the Han Dynasty's ring-headed sword, whose killing has exceeded the spear, and dominated the battlefield for 300 years in the Cold Weapon Era. At the end of the Han Dynasty and during the Three Kingdoms period, large swords and long spears began to become the weapons used by military generals, so the history books called "Guan Gong Knife" as the ancestor of the large sword.

Excluding the "white fight" factor, only from the big knife and lance to compare the battle elements, the killing power of the big knife is better than the lance. Because the big knife is generally heavier than the lance, "Three Kingdoms" said "Guan Gong knife" weighs 82 pounds, such a weight in the weapon at the time is considered a king. And the weight of the gun is generally more than ten pounds, than the long spear to some light. Sword and lance against the grid, blocking force gun is not as good as the knife, smashing and splitting force is not as good as the knife, only stabbing and flexibility is stronger than the knife.

From the end of the Han Dynasty to the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the use of sword and gun generals accounted for most of the fierce, about more than 80%. From the sword and gun fierce general's battle record big data, make the sword fierce general battle record is stronger than make the gun fierce general. Here said the battle record, refers to the single battle record, otherwise it can not reflect the weapon war power.

The Three Kingdoms period, the sword fierce general to Guan Yu for the first, White Horse Slope beheading Yan Liang, captured Yu Ban, beheading Pound, shocking China, known as "ten thousand enemies". Wang Hands made 60 catties of major swords, beheading Xie Xiong and Gong Qi, second only to Guan Yu. Ji Ling's three-pointed, two-edged sword was also very powerful, as was Xiahou Dun's plain sword, Wei Yan's great sword, and Zhang Liao's green dragon hook sickle sword, all of which were very powerful on the battlefield.

Han Shizhong, a famous general in the Southern Song Dynasty, used a gold-backed mountain chopping sword, which was so brave that he was called "Ten Thousand Enemies". At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the first fierce general Zhang Dingbian hand to make a big knife, the Ming Dynasty founding general Chang Youchun hand to make a big gun, under his hands to go no more than three rounds. The late Ming general Lu Xiangsheng, hand made 136 pounds of fine steel sword, the late Ming general Liu Braided hand made 120 pounds of sword, in the battlefield courageous. Anti-Qing heroine Zhou Xiuying, 120 kg sword, in the Qing army under heavy siege, knife chopping several members of the Qing generals, if not killed by the foreign gun sword, the Qing army is difficult to capture her alive.

Re-look at the fierce generals who make guns. Three Kingdoms Jiang Wei make gun, the Northern Expedition totaled two big victories, three small victories, the distance between the four times, a big defeat, a small defeat. Zhao Yun make gun, but its courage in Guan Yu, Zhang Fei below. Ma Chao used the gun, but his force was not as strong as Guan Yu. Zhang Fei, with his gun, and Guan Yu, known as "ten thousand enemies".

The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Gao Si Ji, Wang Yanzhang, Yang Xin, all make gun, are very brave, Wang Yanzhang number "Wang Iron Gun". Yue Fei, a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty against the Jin Dynasty, made the gun, known as the enemy of ten thousand people. Qin Liangyu, a female general at the end of the Ming Dynasty, used a gun and fought against the Qing army very bravely. But these gun generals, history books have no clear records of decapitation. Make the knife fierce general's record is better than that of the gun fierce general's record, exclude the "white fight" factor, see the knife's combat power is better than the gun.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have "10,000 enemies" said, can be said to meet rivals, but the two really one-on-one, we must first look at the "white fight" ability, "white fight" is empty-handed fighting, and the first thing to look at empty-handed fighting, and the first thing to look at empty-handed fighting, and the first thing to look at empty-handed fighting, and the first thing to look at is empty-handed fighting. And empty-handed fighting first to see the power. Guan Yu knife weighs 82 pounds, Zhang Fei gun weighs more than 50 pounds, Zhang Fei power is weaker than Guan Yu, even if the two are equal, if Guan Yu and Zhang Fei one-on-one, the defeat of Zhang Fei, so in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Guan Yu is very high-profile, words to prove that his combat power to be better than Zhang Fei.

And the Southern Song Dynasty generals Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, Yue Fei can open the bow 300 pounds, Han Shizhong can also open the bow 300 pounds, the two people have equal strength. But Han Shizhong's knife than Yue Fei's gun heavy, two people if the one-on-one, can fight a few hundred, and finally Han Shizhong slightly prevailed, or a tie.
