Can ancient European warriors know martial arts?

Wushu is unique to China people.

Foreigners often talk about "skills" and attach importance to the use of weapons, but it is also a kind of martial arts. For example, German fencing is very famous: technically speaking, German fencing uses the tip of the sword to attack while the root of the sword and the guards also defend, so it can achieve the effect of integrating attack and defense. Its unique sticking sword emphasizes how to make people with less strength slide to the favorable position on the other side's blade after the blades collide, thus producing the effect that the strength is greater than the square. Using this principle, even a single-handed sword or even a dagger can block the attack of a general sword or even a war sword, which is a high-tech that conquers the strong with the weak.

But in modern times, these things have not been practiced in the western army, and war is not a suitable place for Wushu to exist.

The above is not perfect. I also inquired some information and listed some western fighting techniques:

French kick, or French kick, Sabat and so on. It is a French martial art, with hands and feet as weapons, which combines the elements of western boxing and gorgeous kicking skills. The lower limbs can only be attacked with feet, which is different from the old shoes and Hierath of Silat's limbs. Muay Thai can be hit with the knee, and Hierath can be hit with the shin. Kicking means "old shoes" in French. French kicking is probably the only kicking martial art that allows boxers to wear shoes. Bruce Lee, a famous martial artist and international action superstar at the end of the century, once said that the French boxing is very exquisite.

Kampfringen (German for Fighting and Wrestling) is a unarmed fighting martial art that originated from the Holy Roman Empire in the Middle Ages to the Renaissance (now Germany). When the weapons used by soldiers on the battlefield are damaged or lost, they must rely on their own hands and feet to protect themselves. This technique seems to belong to melee boxing. Its movements are small and meticulous, and there are many up-and-down movements between its hands and feet. It also has throwing tricks, in which, after cutting into the opponent's body, the hands and feet cooperate to throw the opponent down; There is also a pusher, and the gesture is not big. In terms of fighting skills, the characteristics of boxing seem to belong to western boxing. According to the data, the Germans also attacked each other's heads with elbows and knees. Germanic capture is different from ancient Greek fighting. It is not a martial art produced in competitive competitions, but it is a martial art with high actual combat effect. It is also different from the newly developed German Jiu Jitsu in Germany from 65438 to 0967. It is a fighting purely developed for Europeans themselves, not born out of the Eastern martial arts system.
