- combat strategy:

this style teaches covering to keep safety in fighting. the small hong quan is more defensive and the big hong quan is more offensive. its main tactics are:

tactic 2 - "cover up from the sky to cross the sea (瞒天过海)": covering moves can defend your body against the opponent while attacking and defending, advancing and retreating.

tactic 3 - "pilfer a goat on the way (顺手牵羊)": covering moves can also be used as attacks while advancing and retreating.

tactic 4 - "mud water to catch fish (混水摸鱼)": covering moves can lower opponent's awareness of your defenses and attacks.

these involve a continuous flood of covering moves of the arms and even the legs around your body.
