What I was going to say is that you could, at least theoretically, strike with your spear in a overhand manner or you could strike with it in an underhand manner, the only thing is I don't know how you do that underhand when you're in the middle of a phalanx.

我要说的是,士兵们能够,至少从理论上来说,可以自上而下地刺矛,也可以这样自下而上地刺矛,我不太清楚在方阵中,士兵们怎么能够自下而上地刺矛
