Qi Jiguang (1528~1587), a national hero of the Ming Dynasty, was a famous anti-Wu general in Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, a native of Penglai, Shandong (a dingyuan person, or ancestral home), who grew up poor and studious, was familiar with scripture history, could write and martial arts, and had great ambitions. When he was a teenager, he wrote the poem "Feudalism is not my intention, but I hope that HaiBoping" generously expressed his ambition to defend the country and calm the Wokou. Hereditary Dengzhou Wei commanded the Affairs of you, weak crowns, and was soon promoted to the position of Commander of the Capital, guarding against the Wokou in Shandong. In the thirty-fourth year of Jiaqing (1555), he changed his name to Zhejiang Dusi and went to Hangzhou to take up a post. He was appointed as a staff general and assigned him to guard the three towns of Ningbo, Shaoxing, and Taizhou, when he was only in his twenties. From then on, he began to lead an army to resist the Wu on the eastern coast of Zhejiang. QiBu repeatedly built Qigong, and in the forty years of Jiaduan (1561), he was able to peacefully invade Zhejiang Wukou, and Jiguang was promoted to the third rank because of his merits. After that, he was ordered to lead the Huai army to aid Jiangxi, and twice in a row to aid Fujian, and jigong was promoted to the position of governor of Jinshi and deputy chief soldier. In the forty-second year of Jiajing (1563), after the invasion of Fujian wukou was suppressed, he was promoted to the post of governor of Tongzhi, and was appointed as the chief military officer of Fujian after succeeding the general Yu Dayu. In the next two years, the remnants of Guangdong were pacified, and all the southeastern plagues were lifted.

National hero Qi Jiguang
In the first year of Longqing (1567), because of the many police officers in the north of Jimen, Jiguang was ordered to go north, with the governor of the capital Tongzhi, the prime minister Jizhou, Changping, Baoding and other three towns to train troops. Before his arrival, Ji Men had replaced as many as ten generals, all of whom were dismissed for poor defense. When he first arrived at Jimen, he strictly trained soldiers, straightened out the original troops, repaired the border equipment, and asked permission to recruit 3,000 Zhejiang soldiers who were known for their bravery and good fighting at that time, and went north to serve as the vanguard troops, as an example for the whole army. As a result, the original disciplined Northern Soldiers were transformed, and the combat effectiveness of the whole army was greatly enhanced. He guarded the Jimen Gate for sixteen years, repeatedly defeated and other foreign enemies invaded, making the Jimen as stable as Mount Tai, and even invincible and daring to attack again. Even after he stepped down, the successive generals acted according to his established laws, and thus gained the effect of decades of peace and quiet. It can be seen that qi's general talent is indeed extraordinary.
Throughout his life, Qi Jiguang fought in the south and defended the north, resisted foreign enemies, made great achievements, and was a general with great talent and great strategy in history. The "History of Ming" said: "Qi Jiguang used soldiers, and his prestige shocked Huanyu. He also said, "Ji Guang is more experienced in the north and south, and the sound is heard." In the south, the battle is special, and the north is exclusively guarded. Ming Wang Shisheng's "Guangzhixuan" also said: "And the mighty gong is in Fujian, and its strategy is above the generals." "Of course, Jiguang's generals can get a better play, in addition to the southern war and the northern defense can be supported by the majority of soldiers, can be wan. In addition to the unity of the people in the just war against aggression and the fulfillment of the great task of defending the motherland, the unity of the generals who resisted the enemy and the trust and reuse of those in charge of the country are also indispensable objective factors. Unfortunately, only half a year after the death of Zhang Juzheng of Xiangguo, the situation suddenly changed, and Zhang Dingsi said to Zhang Dingsi (official name, court advisory) in the matter: "Jiguang is not suitable for stationing in Jimen. The imperial court listened to the letter and immediately transferred him to Guangdong. The following year, he claimed to be ill, and was impeached by Zhang Xigao and others in the incident, and even went so far as to dismiss the official and return to Li. After three years of idleness, Yushi Fu Guang's house recommended Jiguang's comeback, but he was taken away. Qi Jiguang, a famous general of the generation who had spent nearly forty years in his life as a horseman, had once frightened the invaders, and thus passed away in the midst of depression and grief. Reading the history so far, it is not regrettable! Ji Guang died at the age of 60, and his nickname was "Wuyi".
During his lifetime, Qi Jiguang did not forget to study diligently and write works, and the military works he wrote in his lifetime, such as "New Book of Ji Xiao", "Record of Military Training", "New Book of Armed Armament", and "Outline of Ying Rong", were all respected by later generations of ancient military scholars. The poetry collections include the "ZhiZhitang Collection" and the "Firstborn Heart Bell". He also loved folk martial arts and conducted research in conjunction with military science to achieve the purpose of serving the military. Therefore, he also collected his "Book of Fists" in the collection of works such as the "New Book of Ji Xiao".
(1) The "Three Talents Picture Society" contains the "Fist Classic" and "Fist Diagram" to explain
The fourteenth part of The New Book of Ji Xiao, written by Qi Jiguang, is "The Essentials of the Fist Classic", and the note is: "This art is not very predetermined by soldiers, and if it can have spare strength, it is also practiced by the martial arts, but the multitude cannot be strong, and they also listen to it, so they take this as the end of all the chapters." ”
The original inscription of the New Book of Ji Xiao is unknown, but the earlier one in existence is the Zhou Shixuan re-engraving of the twenty-third year of the Ming Wanli Calendar (1595), of which the Thirty-two Posture Diagrams of the Fist Diagram have been missing the Eight Potential Diagrams after the Fourteenth Diagram. Subsequently, in the Qing Dynasty, the Zhang clan engraving of The Kuangge Pavilion, the Lailutang Zhang clan engraving, and the Qiantang Xu clan engraving
Both this and the Japanese Hirayama diving book are based on the Zhou Ben and lack the Eight Potentials Diagram. In the spring of 1958, I consulted the entire book of the Four Libraries of wenlan Pavilion in the Zhejiang Provincial Library, and the lack of pictures was the same. In 1937, Tang Hao wrote "Qi Jiguang Fist Classic", which also lacked the eight forces of the map.
In the early Qing Dynasty, Chen Menglei's compilation of Ancient and Modern Books, Art Classics, and Fist Fighting has thirty-two potentials of the "Fist Classic", but there are no tricks. In 1956, I discovered that the Ninety-first volume of Chen Menglei's Mao Yuanyi compilation of the late Ming Dynasty", the "Book of Fists", contained the "Book of Fists", and the thirty-two plots were complete, which was a valuable discovery. However, Mr. Li Songfu pointed out recently that there are still two articles in the Ming Wanli edition of the "Three Talents Diagram Society" and the "Personnel Chart Society" in the seventh volume, "Fist Classic" and "Fist Law Diagram" (that is, the Thirty-two Potential Diagram Tips), which are the same as Qi's "Fist Classics", but the author's surname is not signed, and the order of the Thirty-two Potential Diagram Tips is also reversed, such as the first page of the "Wu Bei Zhi" Tu Zhi is "Lazy Tie Clothes" and "Golden Rooster Independence", while the "Three Talents Tu Hui" is the last page, and the first page of the "Three Talents Tu Hui" "Shunluan Elbow" and "Qi Drum Posture" are the last page of the "Wu Bei Zhi". The order of the names of the two books is listed below for comparison.
The Three Talents Picture Society is a compilation of Ming Jiajing, Wang Xi of Wanlijian and his son Wang Siyi. Wang Xi, a native of Shanghai, Jiajing Jinshi, resigned from his official post and returned to Shanghai, built the song river, and spent his life writing books for pleasure, and together with Zi Siyi, he carved the "Three Talents And Figures" in a total of 106 volumes, divided into fourteen disciplines such as astronomy, geography, characters, seasonal times, palace rooms, utensils, bodies, clothes, personnel, rituals, treasures, literature and history, birds and beasts, grass and trees, etc., each of which has a diagram. The collected "Fist Classic" and "Fist Diagram" are part of volume VII of the "Personnel Chart Society", although the author's name is not signed, but it is certain that it was written by Qi Jiguang. Wang Ji and Qi Jiguang are contemporaries, no doubt engraved according to the original of the Qi family, with collation value, specially based on this, and reference to his book as proofreading. As for the "lazy clothes going out of the frame" appearing to be the first of the thirty-two potentials of the "Fist Classic", why does the "Three Talents Picture Society" reverse the second order? This is most likely the typographer's fault.
Mao Yuanyi, a native of Gui'an (present-day Wuxing, Zhejiang), was a deputy commander-in-chief of the Ming Chongzhen Zhongli Official, and his works include "Wu Bi Zhi", which was written in 1621. There is Qi Jiguang's "Fist Classic" and the thirty-two plots are complete. The whole picture of the Fist Sutra is preserved. However, not many years after the engraving, the Ming Dynasty died, and the "Wu Bi Zhi" became a banned book. In 1956, I found this book in the Shanghai Library that it contained Qi's "Book of Fists", and now I have corrected the erroneous planting of the "Three Talents Picture Society".
(2) Revision of the Book of Fists
The martial arts seem to be unpredictable in the art of the great war, but the movement of the hands and siblings, the habit of the body, this is the door for beginners to enter the art. Therefore, it is stored later, in preparation for one family.
To learn boxing, you must be able to live in the body, the technique is convenient, the footwork is light and solid, the advance and retreat are appropriate, and the legs can soar. And its magic is also upside down; and its fierceness is also a splitting fist; and its fastness is also caught alive in the sky; and its softness is also known as a diagonal flash. Therefore, the good one who chooses his fist has thirty-two potentials, the momentum is inherited, the enemy is victorious, the changes are endless, the subtle is unpredictable, and the one who cannot be seen is called a god.
Folk Cloud: I don't know how to punch, it is too fast to cover my ears, so-called: "No fight, just one stroke; if you make a fight, there are ten strokes." "Learn a lot, do more and win."
Ancient and modern boxers, Song Taizu has "thirty-two long fists", and there are "six-step fists", "monkey fists", "yuan fists", the fame and posture are various, and the reality is similar. So far, "Wen Jia Seventy-two Lines Fist", "Thirty-six Locks", "Twenty-four Abandoned Exploration Horses", "Eight Flashes", "Twelve Shorts", this is also a good person. Although "Lü Hong's eight lowers" are rigid, they are not as good as "Mianzhang Short Strikes" (Proofreading: "Wu Beizhi" does not have the word "un", it seems to be unreasonable). Shandong Li Bantian's legs, Eagle Claw King's Take, Qian fall Zhang Zhi Fall (School Note: "Wu Beizhi" as "Fall", now two existing), Zhang Bojing's beating, Shaolin Temple's stick, combined with the Qingtian stick method, Yang's gun method and Bazi fist stick, are all famous today. Although each has its own strengths (school note: "Wu Beizhi" as "take"), each transmission has a top and no bottom (school note: "Wu Beizhi" as "Passed on to the top and not down"; Pingshan submerged in this work "The one who is passed on has the upper and no lower"), there is a lower and no upper, you can win over others, this is just a corner; if you use each family's boxing techniques, you can learn it at the same time, just like the Changshan Snake Formation Method, the head of the blow should be the tail, the tail should be the first, and the blow to the body should be corresponding, which means that the upper and lower are complete, and there is no victory.
Fists, sticks, knives, guns, plutonium, palladium, swords, halberds, bows, hooks, sickles, and punches are first used by boxing (Proofreading: "Wu Bi Zhi" is "made" to have), and its fist is also the source of martial arts.
Now paint the momentum, pay attention to the trick, in order to enlighten the future learning. If you have the art, you must test the enemy, and you must not be ashamed of winning or losing, and think about why you can win and why you will lose. After a long time of trying, the enemy is still shallow, and good at war must be skilled. Gu Yun: "The art is bold", and the letter is not false.
According to the "Three Talents Tuhui Fist Classic" so far, the "Wu Bi Zhi" and Xu Naizhao carved ben, etc. still have the following paragraphs: "Yu zai Zhoushan Office, you have to participate in Liu Caotang's boxing, the so-called 'if you commit a fight, it is ten times', which is also said." This is the best thing, that is, the continuous beating of the stick." (The Japanese Hirayama subliminal version still has the words "continuous poke one method" after that) It may be that the "Three Talents Tuhui" was originally engraved according to Qi's "Ji Xiao New Book", and the "Wu Bi Zhi" was based on a re-engraved version, and Qi Shi added one.
