Yang expected this and raised a gauntlet, letting the sword yet again give her other gauntlet a deep gash. It was probably deeper then the other gash had gone, as Yang swore she felt the edge of Beatrix's sword graze her wrist. When the sword made contact with her gauntlet, she didn't stop running. Instead, she slid under. Yang aimed an uppercut at Beatrix from below. If her fist made contact with her, Yang would fire the shotgun mechanism in it.
