Excluding novels, film and television dramas, we say that there is a true story in history, and it is also the only great swordsman recognized by the emperor-Pei Min.
In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Tang Wenzong Li Ang had three unique calligraphies and five sages: Li Bai's poems and songs, Zhang Xu's cursive script and Pei Min's sword dance were listed as "three unique calligraphies in the Tang Dynasty"; Zhang Xu, the sage of grass, Wu Daozi, the sage of painting, Lu Yu of Cha Sheng, Du Fu, the sage of poetry, and Yu Pei, the blade master, tied for the "Five Sages of Datang".
Did you find that Pei Min is the only one who is famous in the double list?
Pei Min was born in the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty. The exact date of birth and death is unknown. When he was in office, Yan Kuan handled things properly, put an end to evil and deception, and participated in many border wars with westerners (after Xianbei), Khitan and Tubo. Finally, General Sargin Gewei, one of the sixteen guards of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, was deeply loved by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty.
Now, let's talk about Pei Min's personal strength. According to "individualism", he "threw a sword into the clouds, which was dozens of feet high. If lightning strikes down, people will be surprised if they hold the sheath in their hands and the sword goes through the air. " According to the records of famous paintings in past dynasties, the painter Wu Daozi painted because he saw Pei Min's sword dance "haunted by ghosts and gods, but" paid a lot of money ". This famous painting is now a national treasure and is kept in the memorial hall. It's eighty-seven immortals.
In the Tang Dynasty, he wrote "General Pei's Sword Dance Fu" to praise his meritorious martial arts, and Yan Zhenqing and Wang Wei also wrote a poem "To General Pei".
Yan Zhenqing presented General Pei;
The king made Liuhe, and the valiant soldier cleared it about nine times.
If the war horse is a dragon and a tiger, how can it take off?
The general is faced with eight shortages and is brilliant.
Sword dance with video games, with the wind back.
Looking up at the Tianshan Mountains, the white clouds are just in Cui Wei.
Entering the array to break the arrogance, the name is thunderous.
Shoot a hundred horses, and then shoot ten thousand people.
The Huns didn't dare to fight the enemy, so they fought back.
If you report your success to the son of heaven, you can draw Lin Tai.
Wang Wei's "Gift to General Pei": Seven-star sword at the waist and hundreds of bows on the arm. I didn't know there was a general in the sky until I saw that I had captured Lu in the clouds.
This shows that Pei Min's swordsmanship is superb and his martial arts is very good.
Let's take a look at Pei Min's actual combat record.
According to the biography of Li Bai in the New Tang Dynasty, Pei Minzhi shot as many as 3 1 tiger when he was guarding Beiping County (now Lulong, Hebei Province).
Pei Min's actual combat skills are also recorded in the Book of the New Tang Dynasty: When Pei Min and Youzhou were the commanders of the Northern Expedition, they were surrounded by Xi people and suddenly arrows rained down. Pei Min mounted his horse and galloped in front of the army. He drew his sword (tangdao) and cut off four arrows coming from the front. When the leader of Xi people saw this tragic situation, he left.
The poet Li Bai once studied swordsmanship with him, so Li Bai wrote "Chivalrous Man", in which "it takes ten steps to kill a man, and a thousand miles does not leave a line. It is probably a true portrayal of the swordsman at that time, especially Pei Min.
In addition, Gong Sundaniang, a famous master of sword dance in the early Tang Dynasty, was also a disciple of Pei Min.
Some people may say that the martial arts of the motherland are just posturing and posturing. But I don't agree. I always thought that China's kung fu must be really good. To the advanced point, I don't want to fly to the ground, but flying over the eaves and climbing the wall is still possible. The top ten masters in the late Qing Dynasty, Mr. Bruce Lee, who is very close to our time, are all empirical.
