Neither man had taken up a shield this morning, so it was a game of slash and parry, back and forth across the deck.

这天噪声两人都没有用盾，所以这是一场在甲板前后挥砍与避闪的游戏。

Samurai are more adept at parrying with a weapon than a shield? Especially the two-handed variety. This happens automatically as their Bushido skill increases along with parry.

比起盾牌，武士更善于用武器格挡攻击，尤其是双手武器。武器格挡的几率随着武士的武士倒技能和格挡技能的增长而自动提高。

You can dodge, parry, block with your shield (a limited number of times) and do various combo attacks.
