The most enjoyable battle in The Sword is undoubtedly the one where Li Yunlong kills more than a hundred Japanese officers and eats an entire observation group. Moreover, there is a duel with cold weapons in this section, which is particularly exciting. But look at the order of appearance of the duelists on both sides, do you find any routines? Yes, there is a big routine here. It is not decided casually who will go first and who will go last. The Japanese army and the independent regiment have their own considerations.
Li Yunlong originally wanted to go up by himself, but the monk stopped him. Li Yunlong directly let the monk go up, without grabbing the first appearance. To be honest, this is a bit unlike Li Yunlong’s style, but we can It could be seen that he did not hesitate at all, because Li Yunlong was very sober. Similarly, the Japanese Major General Hattori Naoomi also stopped his men and went out to confront the monk himself. Why is this? Let's analyze it.
The first is the Japanese army. They are already trapped animals. To put it bluntly, they are already half dead. And according to their military rank, surrender is impossible. They want to kill a few more Chinese before they die. The purpose is to tell the Chinese army that although we are defeated, our martial arts are incomparable to you. Among the surviving officers, Hattori Naoomi's martial arts skills were undoubtedly the highest. The person with the highest martial arts skills would be the first to stand, which meant that he would defeat the first person from the Eighth Route Army to establish his authority, and then the hearts of others would be at ease.
Similarly, Li Yunlong was not dazzled by the victory. He also knew that he must win the first stop. Otherwise, he would still be in trouble in other aspects, not to mention that Chu Yunfei was watching from behind, so he must not be embarrassed. The martial arts of the Independent Regiment are undoubtedly the highest among the monks, and the monks are absolutely foolproof when they take action. So Li Yunlong let the monk go.
As a result, when the two sides fought, we can see that Hattori Naoomi is really not a vegetarian. His sword skills are extremely sharp. Anyone with a little less martial arts will definitely not be able to cope with him. Only a monk can beat him.
Sure enough, Japan was originally a defeated army, and with the death of the major general, the people behind them lost their courage and became sheep. Therefore, in the first stop of both sides, the Japanese army and Li Yunlong had the same consideration, that is, they must win the first stop, so both sides naturally sent their most powerful people to fight.
