Tachibana Style of War?

Nioh-sama’s own art of war?

Nioh-sama actually knows the art of war?

Shimada Kui and others looked surprised at first, then thoughtful, and finally turned into calm expressions.

If a cat or a dog came from nowhere and said that he was proficient in the art of war and created a new school of war, any human being with a normal mind would definitely be skeptical about this.

After all, military science is no better than Confucianism.

Japan is a member of the Confucian cultural circle, and Confucianism occupies a very high proportion in the Japanese spiritual world.

Especially in the Edo period, a scholar named Fujiwara Shobo (1561-1619) denied the superiority of Buddhism, left the monkhood and returned to lay life to teach Confucianism, and became the founder of Zhu Xi School (Zhu Xi School) in Japan.

Under his influence and education, a group of Zhu Xi scholars emerged. Their disciple Lin Luoshan comprehensively developed Japanese Zhu Xi studies and constructed Confucianism in accordance with the requirements of the shogunate system, thus establishing the dominant position of Zhu Xi studies.

You can find Confucianism in any temple or private school, and anyone who has drunk ink can recite a few lines of "Zhihu".

But this is not the case in military science.

Since Yuanhe Yanwu (1615), there has been no major war in the country, and military strategists have no place to use.

If you study Confucianism, if you are lucky, you can become a government-appointed scholar who can make a living, or if you are not lucky, you can become a private school teacher and earn a living.

What can you do by studying military science?

Apart from bragging and spanking with relatives and friends after dinner, it has no other use.

Therefore, only those scholars who do not have to worry about food and drink, and who are not under pressure to survive, will have the time and energy to study military science.

In other words, the "military circle" in the Edo period was a very small circle, and it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to get in touch with it and integrate into it.

In this environment where teaching resources are extremely scarce, it is not easy to just master military science, let alone create a new military school?

Therefore, in the eyes of the public in the Edo period, a young man said that he was proficient in military science and created a new school, just like a college student in the 21st century said that he was proficient in high-energy physics and created a new formula - only a few

Cai, are you drinking like this?

However, if such words came from Qingto's mouth, then Shimada Kui and others would have to be deeply convinced.

After all, they have experienced this man's skills countless times.

This man seems to have a magical power. No matter how difficult it is, even if it is "impossible" in the eyes of others, as long as it is in his hands, it can be turned into "possible"!

"Standing in a military posture can effectively temper your strong will!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the commander-in-chief paused.

The next second, she flipped through the "Ju Liu Art of War: Infantry Drill Manual" in her palm, lowered her head and eyes, quickly glanced at the contents, then raised her head again, and continued to stare attentively.

Kui Shimada et al.

"It can hone your unyielding perseverance!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she lowered her head and peeked at the booklet in her hand.

"You can develop iron-like discipline!"

After a pause, he lowered his head and peeked again.

"The most important thing is that standing in a military posture is conducive to subsequent battle formation training!"

He paused again and continued to peek.

"We are not the Yakuza! The Yakuza only need to be fierce and ruthless, but we can't! We are a serious army!"

Take a peek.

"For the army, personal martial arts is important, but more important is discipline! Discipline is the foundation of an army's combat effectiveness!"

Another peek.

"An army without discipline, even if every soldier is as brave as Ogata, is nothing more than a fragile plate of loose sand!"

Take another peek.

"No matter how powerful you are, you can only be defeated by a hundred or a thousand enemies at most! Only by forming a tight battle formation can you be defeated by ten thousand people! If you can't even stand upright, stand for a long time, or stand well, how can you still

How about forming a formation?"

The director-general's eyes just switched back and forth between the book in his hand and the subordinates in front of him.

Every time she read a sentence, she had to look down at the booklet in her hand, and finally managed to finish the speech.

The first team members looked at each other - the captain's words... seemed to make some sense!

Even people like Shimada Kui who have never been exposed to military science know the importance of battle formations.

A battle formation is to an army what clear water is to fish and shrimp.

An army that doesn't know how to form a formation will definitely have no combat effectiveness.

The most typical example is to facilitate the confrontation between infantry and cavalry.

Throughout the ages, no cavalry team has ever had the ability to charge through a large "hedgehog" infantry formation, never.

Therefore, from one perspective, if the infantry does not form a formation but fights independently, then the cavalry can easily defeat the infantry that is several times or even ten times their size by charging at random.

"Do you all understand? Military posture training is the core content of Tachibana-ryu's art of war! Never be disrespectful!"

The Souji put his hands on his hips, shrugged his shoulders, and thrust his chest, which was surprisingly flat due to the tightly wrapped bra, forward.

The first team gathered the strongest group of people in the Shinsengumi.

Under the influence of "survivor bias", unless they are extremely talented people like Souji and Mai Kinoshita, anyone with a high level of martial arts will basically grow taller and stronger.

For this reason, even the shortest person in the first team is 1.65 meters tall - everyone is far taller than Souji, who is only 1.55 meters tall.

Therefore, in order to enhance her majesty, she was like a red panda that would stand up and open its arms when frightened. Whenever she spoke to her subordinates, she would habitually put her arms on her hips and raise her chest, trying to stretch her body so that she could

It looks even scarier.

"Do you have any objections?"

This time, no one spoke.

"If there are no objections, then let's start training!"

Afterwards, the commander-in-chief once again spread out the infantry drill in his hand and reiterated all the key points that the general needed to observe while standing in military posture.

Since standing in the military posture is to lay the foundation for subsequent formation training, there is no reason to continue to resist.

So, Shimada Kui took a deep breath, adjusted his posture bit by bit, and straightened his body in accordance with the requirements stated by the Director-General.

Separate your feet at a certain angle, straighten your legs, put your thumbs on the second joint of your index finger, let your hands droop naturally and stick to the sides of your legs, tighten your abdomen, raise your chest, raise your head, look forward, and stretch your shoulders back.

He used the corner of his eye to observe his surroundings, and was surprised to find that soldiers from other divisions were also practicing their military stance.

The ten squadrons were evenly distributed throughout the No. A training ground, standing in straight horizontal lines.

At the same time, he also found Nagakura Shinpachi, Saito Ichi and other captains, all holding an infantry drill manual in their hands like the chief commander.

Shimada Kui thought disdainfully:

——Just standing upright and doing nothing... How difficult is this kind of training?

At this moment, he never imagined that a few hours later, he would feel deeply ashamed of his arrogance...

…

…

Time passes.

10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours...

Unknowingly, the minute hand on the clock has crossed two large circles.

Now is the time when the temperature difference between day and night is huge.

The howling north wind subsided.

The sun penetrated the clouds and beat with all its strength on the No. A training ground without any shelter, and the temperature gradually rose.

Shimada Kui felt beads of sweat begin to appear on his forehead, back, and chest, making his whole body sticky.

He swallowed hard, and a cry from his soul emerged in his heart:

——How long are we going to stand here?!

For a full 2 ​​hours, they did nothing. There was no other training content and no rest. They just kept standing!

The director-general did not call for a stop, and they did not dare to terminate the training. They could only grit their teeth and endure.

Shimada Kui knew for the first time: It turns out that standing can be so tiring!

In order to straighten his body and keep his hands close to his legs, the muscles in his back and arms must continue to exert force.

It's okay for a while, but if it lasts for a long time, it's a different matter.

The consumption produced in 2 hours is not ordinary and astonishing!
