Baru Pencak Silat Combat Situation

Situation I. The enemy, having struck at your midsection or face with a right-arm lunge punch, does not immediately withdraw the attacking arm (# 1).
Action A: Dodge the attack by moving outside the enemy's right arm, and step forward and to your left on your right foot, catching his attacking arm near the wrist with your right hand (use a from-the-top grasp, thumb down). Hold your left hand open near your chest, ready to block ally kick action he may initiate. Continue your movement around the outside of the enemy's right arm by pivoting on your right foot and placing your left well behind his advanced right foot; you and your enemy now face in approximately the same direction. With your right hand pull his attacking in toward you and at the same time drive your left fist, forearm, or elbow into his right elbow just above the joint; then quickly slip your left arm under his captured right arm (#2) and go on with your counteraction in any of the following ways:

1. Lift your enemy's right arm and lower your hips as you deliver a hard left elbow side strike to his rib cage or midsection (# 3).
2. Disengage your right hand grip, keeping that arm in readiness to block his right arm should it be used against you, and push him away from you with your left hand placed just above his right elbow or drive a left spear hand into his throat or eyes (# 4).
3. Move further behind him and bring his captured right arm down, keeping your right-hand grasp as you pull his arm in toward your body. Place your left leg deeply between his legs from the rear and wedge your left hip tightly against the right half of his lower back. Reach your left hand up and around his back so as to be free to slap the left side of his head with your left palm or to strike the outside of his left shoulder (# 5-# 6). He will respond by raising his left arm, and as he does, jerk arm him forward with your right hand and put your left up behind his neck. You may now force arm under his left armpit so that you can run that arm against his upper body with your left arm and moving your right leg in front of him all the while retaining your right hand grasp of his right arm; if you now lock both his arms, your left hand is in a position to push down against the back of his trapped right arm (# 7-# 8).
   

Action B: As the enemy makes his right lunge punch, step back on your right leg and drop quickly onto your right knee, out of range of the punch. Keep your opened left hand in front of you to protect your face; your right hand, resting lightly on the ground, is not intended to support you (# 1). This position is, in fact, a ruse, the purpose of which is to induce the enemy to close with you by attacking with a forward snap kick, using his trailing left leg. When he does so, you must be quick to respond. Rise as the kick comes on toward you, jumping forward onto your left foot and thrusting your left hand, held in the form of a crane fist, downward and hard into his groin (# 2-# 4). If your groin attack has stopped him or toppled him backward, step forward on your right leg and deliver a straight snap kick into his groin with your right foot (action not illustrated). If your groin attack has not been altogether successfully, you must be prepared to block the continued forward motion of his left leg kicking action by driving both elbows into his upraised left knee, just above the kneecap (# 5). It is also possible that even if your groin attack is successful (# 4), he will shift his weight back onto his left leg and attempt a kicking or kneeing action with his right leg; should he do so, scoop the leg up into your arms and heave him backwards (# 6).
