The origin of Guan Yu s Qinglong Glaive Knife, how did Guan Yu s Qinglong Glaive come about?

According to historical research, the Qinglong Glaive Knife used by Guan Yu, the famous general of the Three Kingdoms mentioned in the legend, did not have this at that time, and the real Qinglong Glaive Knife was a weapon that only appeared in the Tang Dynasty. And Guan Yu's name of the Glaive Knife, originally known as the "Moon Covering Knife", was first seen in the "Martial Arts General Essentials Former Collection: Instrument Diagram". Written in the fourth year of Renzong's reign in the early Northern Song Dynasty (1044 AD), the General Essentials of the Wujing was the first military and weapons encyclopedia in China to be edited under the auspices of the government.

The "Eight Colors of Knives" chapter in the book draws a total of eight knife shapes used in the army at that time, except for the hand knife, which is a short handle**, the remaining seven colors are long-pole knives, including the "moon occultation knife". According to the schema, the head of the "moon occultation knife" is wide and long, resembling a half-quarter moon, with a disjointed blade on the back, a perforated and hanging knife body, a dragon-shaped spit at the junction between the knife head and the handle, and a hammer at the end of the long rod. The "bending knife" and "phoenix mouth knife" in the "Eight Colors of the Knife" are similar in form to the "moon covering knife", although there were subdivisions at that time, in later generations, it was basically called "glaive knife" This kind of long-handled broadsword with a back blade is basically called.

As a heavy weapon, the power of the glaive knife is huge, but because it is too bulky and expensive to manufacture, it is not popular in the combat battlefield, and is more used to show military power during martial arts, arrays and drills, or become a palace guard and a guard of honor weapon for the halo book, and even became a prop for assessing the strength of martial arts in the early Qing Dynasty.

The origin of the Qinglong Yanyue knife in the interpretation of the Three Kingdoms was made by a blacksmith when Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan were in rebellion.

Claim 1:

According to historical records, the glaive knife began to appear in the Song Dynasty, and due to its weight, it was mainly used to practice arm strength, rather than the ** in actual combat. And this blade, also known as Leng Yansaw, was used as Guan Yu's famous weapon in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and it exerted great power in Guan Yu's hands. Whether it is this peerless famous knife that has achieved the martial saint Guan Yu, or because of Guan Yu's prestige, the Qinglong Yanyue knife has been achieved, in short, this knife is like a Zhangba snake spear, and it corroborates each other with the owner, making people think of the owner of the weapon when they see the weapon.

Saying 2: Legend Guan Yu was the Dragon King of the South China Sea in his previous life, and then in order to save the people, he resisted the rules of heaven and heaven, and was beaten into the human world.

Claim 3: It is rumored that Guan Yu is the bodyguard of the nursing home, and then the bodyguard is worth not having a weapon to take advantage of, and then by chance he got a green steel knife, but he didn't take advantage of it at all, and then let the blacksmiths rebuild, and later when it was named, because this knife was half-moon-shaped, shaped like a glaive, and the knife surface also had a green dragon pattern, so it was named "Qinglong Yanyue Knife" or "Yanyue Knife". The Qinglong Yanyue Knife, also known as the "Leng Yan Saw", weighs eighty-two pounds. Later, there is a book cloud of "Sancai Tuhui and Instrumental Use".

However, the king of Guan Yanyue knife, the knife is large, its thirty-six knife techniques, the soldiers meet all the unyielding, the knife class is the first. ”

When he was young, Guan Yu was superb in martial arts, but he hated that he didn't have a weapon at hand, so he found a few masters with the best weapons in the neighborhood to come to his home, and wanted these people to build a big knife for him, these masters worked hard for countless days to create a high-quality steel knife, but Guan Yu was not satisfied, he wanted a peerless knife.

So he told these masters that at least this light steel will continue to be forged, and the iron will be refined into steel for a long time, and the steel will be refined into soft and pure for a long time, and then refined into green, and then refined into treasure. Originally, it was very difficult to practice a green steel knife, and it was even more difficult to practice the treasures of the world, but Guan Yu insisted on the treasure knife, so he said to the blacksmith: You don't have to worry, no matter how many knives are broken, I will bear one of them, and I will not charge a penny.

The masters heard him say this and began to forge a sword for Guan Yu, during which they failed many times, but Guan Yu had no complaints, and entertained the masters every day with wine and dinner, and was a little reluctant to go, and was more engrossed, and finally one day one night a big knife was played, and that night there was a round of bright moon in the sky, and suddenly a bright light shot straight into the sky from the furnace, at this time, this is the sky There happened to be a green dragon flying by, was hit by Haoguang, Haoguang killed the green dragon, and the dragon's blood was soaked in the knife head, as if quenched, the treasure knife soaked in dragon blood turned cyan, so it was named Qinglong Yanyue Knife.

This is the Qinglong Yanyue Knife that followed Guan Yu's life, he followed Guan Yu to fight on the battlefield all his life, beheaded Yan Liang and Wen Chou, passed five levels and killed six generals, helped Guan Yu, and also became a very famous knife in history, this is the origin of this legendary treasure knife, isn't it very interesting.

According to legend, the world's first blacksmith only chose the night of the full moon to build it. When it was completed, there was a sudden surge of wind and clouds, and 1,780 drops of blood were dropped from the sky. According to the analysis of the local warlock, it was the blood of the green dragon.

Therefore, it has the name of the Blue Dragon Glaive Knife. Therefore, there is a saying that the Qinglong Glaive will kill 1,780 people. - Later, the knife killed 1,300 people and beheaded 480 people.

Another saying is that when Guan Yu was young, he was excellent in martial arts, and he only hated that he didn't have a satisfactory big knife to use. So he invited the best masters in building weapons in several nearby villages to Guanjiazhuang to discuss and make the best big knife for him. One of the teachers asked

I don't know what kind of broadsword Guan Zhuangshi wants? "There are iron knives, steel knives, pure steel knives, soft steel knives, green steel knives, treasure knives and so on. Iron is refined into steel for a long time, steel is refined for a long time and is soft and pure, and then refined into green, and even more refined into treasure.

Ordinary people only make iron knives and steel knives. As for the pure steel knife, it is necessary to break nine out of ten, and the soft steel knife is ninety-nine bad to build a hundred, and as for the green steel knife and treasure knife, it is considered a rare treasure in the world. After listening, Guan Yu said:

Guan wants to take the treasure knife. The masters shook their heads and stuck out their tongues. However, due to Guan Yu's "no matter how many times it is broken, I will bear it alone, and I will do a lot of money."

The process of refining the knife was not very smooth, when the last fire was refined, it was already dark, a round of bright moon was in the sky, and suddenly the furnace fire burst out of the snowy light, shooting straight into the sky, and the master shouted: "Quickly dodge the knife and it will explode!" "At this moment, a green dragon passed by in the sky and was struck by the light.

The light slashed the green dragon, and then retreated into the knife, and the dragon's blood stained the head of the knife. The knife didn't blow up—and the Green Dragon Glaive was refined.

In the first episode of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"**, when it comes to Liu Guanzhang (Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei) getting a thousand catties of iron, Guan Yu created the Qinglong Glaive Knife, and the Qinglong Glaive Knife also has a strange name "Leng Yan Saw".

Since Guan Yu appeared, the Qinglong Yanyue Knife has followed, it is a mystery, waiting for you to answer!!

How many years is there between the Three Kingdoms and the Song Dynasty, Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Knife farts.

Later generations made it up.

Guan Yu used a gun.

The Qinglong Glaive Knife was only available in the Song Dynasty, and Guan Yu had never used the Qinglong Glaive Knife or ridden a red rabbit horse.

How did it come about? Guan Yu brought it back from the Song Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty only invented the Qinglong Glaive Knife... It's good to have a bit of a brain.
