"Biography of Song Shili": "Li Quan's bow and horse are agile, and he can transport an iron gun, which is called Li Tie Gun. Yang, a whole wife, has been a pear flower gun for 20 years and is invincible in the world. "
Qi Jiguang's "Ji Xiaoxin's Book" said: "The method of pike began in Yang, named pear flower, and the world is salty; The beauty lies in familiarity. Cooked, the heart can forget the hand, and the hand can forget the gun. The use of the circle is not sluggish, nor is it more expensive than mute. Quiet and motionless, while the rich are unpredictable and infinite. "
The Ming Dynasty was the heyday of Wushu, so at this stage, the theory and technology of marksmanship were obviously improved, and all marksmanship were competitive. He's "The Story of War" said: "The vest gun, the sand armor pole and Li Jiamao have their own merits. They can be used in both length and depth. They are unstoppable, extremely fast and invincible in the world, but Yang Lihua is also a sharpshooter. "
At the end of Qing Dynasty, pike tended to be simple, with flat blade and round barrel bottom. Until today, this type is used in martial arts. At present, the popular guns are big guns, flower guns, double-headed guns, short guns, double guns, hook guns, guns and so on.
