銀先生核心思想

來自專欄 hema相關翻譯

因為各種各樣原因銀先生手稿可能沒辦法全部翻譯，因此我在這裡先把銀先生手稿中他最為強調的核心思想列出來。我個人也是認為這是其戰鬥哲學的體現。

Brief Instructions upon my Paradoxes of Defence for the true handling of all manner of weapons together with the four grounds and the four governors which governors are left out in my paradoxes without the knowledge of which no man can fight safe.

The four grounds or principals of that true fight at all manner of weapons are these four, viz. 1. judgment, 2. distance, 3. time, 4. place.

所有對於武器的操作都會遵守這四個基本點：1.判斷 2.距離 3.時機 4.空間

The reason whereof these 4 grounds or principals be the first and chief, are the following, because through judgment, you keep your distance, through distance you take your time, through time you safely win or gain the place of your adversary, the place being won or gained you have time safely either to strike, thrust, ward, close, grip, slip or go back, in which time your enemy is disappointed to hurt you, or to defend himself, by reason that he has lost his place, the reason that he has lost his true place is by the length of time through the numbering of his feet, to which he is out of necessity driven to that will be agent.（對於上述四個基本點的講解）

之所以這四個基本點是必須要遵守的首要原則，是因為以下原因。通過判斷你來保持你自己的距離，通過距離你可以掌握自己的時機，通過把握時機你可以擠壓你對手的空間，爭取環境。當你佔據了對手的空間你就可以對對手為所欲為，甚至說後退也是可以的。你之所以可以這樣的原因是因為對手丟掉了他的空間，在這都段時間內他無法對你進行有效的攻擊，甚至於保護他自己都做不到。他之所以丟掉了他的空間是因為他的腳實在迫不得已的情況下進行走位的。

The 4 governors are those that follow

這四個原則是要遵守的

1. The first governor is judgment which is to know when your adversary can reach you, and when not, and when you can do the like to him, and to know by the goodness or badness of his lying, what he can do, and when and how he can perform it.

2. The second governor is measure. Measure is the better to know how to make your space true to defend yourself, or to offend your enemy.

3. 4. The third and forth governors are a twofold mind when you press in on your enemy, for as you have a mind to go forward, so must you have at that instant a mind to fly backward upon any action that shall be offered or done by your adversary.

第一個原則就是判斷，通過判斷你可以了解到你的對手什麼時候可以碰觸到你，以及你可以對對手做出什麼樣的攻擊。判斷對方構（架勢）的優點和缺點，了解對手可以做什麼，以及他可以怎麼做出來那些他能做到的事情。

第二個原則就是觀測，只有通過觀測你才能把握住距離，才能為之後的活動提供基礎。

第三個和第四個就是對你自身的行動進行辨證地看待，你要在進攻之後，敵人做出任何有效動作之前進行後撤。
