PLATE XXVII.—THRUST UNDER LEFT ARM AFTER FEINT IN QUARTE TO DECEIVE QUARTE.
PLATE XXVII.
To Deceive his Quarte.
Feint a thrust in quarte (his right breast) and disengage with a thrust in tierce “One, Two.” (Hand in quarte and opposite your left shoulder.)
Feint a thrust in quarte, and disengage under his left arm “One, Two, Low.” (Hand in quarte and opposite your left shoulder, vide Plate [XXVII].)
Feint a cut at his right side and cut at his left arm.
Ditto at his right cheek and cut at his left.
All the above-named attacks may be preceded by a beat or an advance and beat.
The stop thrusts, time thrusts with opposition, remise, redouble, and reprise can be made upon you by a man armed with a gun and bayonet, and you can use them against him under the same circumstances as when opposed to a sabre.
To avoid his stop thrusts, you must adopt the methods recommended when opposed to a man who engages in tierce or quarte (vide page [78]).
