I formed the strongest swordsman group

Leopard Leopard is terrible at arithmetic... In the last chapter, he made a joke of 150+50+50=200... (Leopard Cries.jpg)

Leopard Leopard has made adjustments to the strength of each unit in the previous chapter. The ninth division team is changed to 100 people, the eighth division team is changed to 450 people, and the total strength is adjusted to 3250 people. Hope you know!

Those who are proficient in martial arts, those with the best skills, those with the strongest physiques... It is no exaggeration to say that the first, second and third divisions have concentrated the "best" of the Shinsengumi!

Because they followed the route of "prefer to lack more than to overwhelm", apart from the ninth division (100 people), these three divisions had the smallest number of troops.

Although their total strength is only a mere 600 people.

However, there is no doubt that if these 600 people were to have an upright head-to-head confrontation with the other infantrymen of the Shinsengumi (1,800 people), the former would definitely win!

The Fourth Division is the most powerful division, with a total of 500 soldiers.

The Shinsengumi currently has a total of only 3,000 combatants.

Just looking at numbers, the Fourth Division alone controls one-sixth of the Shinsengumi's troops!

Aoto's "preference" for the Fourth Division aroused doubts from Hijikata Toshizo, Shannan Keisuke and others.

The content of their objections was surprisingly consistent - the captain of the fourth team was that Serizawa duck! Do we really want outsiders to take charge of such a strong military force?

As long as there is an organization, there will always be phenomena of parties uniting against each other and uniting with each other.

This is human nature.

Human beings will always trust and be close to the people and circles they are familiar with.

The so-called "faction" was born.

Everyone in the "Shiweiguan Sect" has eaten from the same pot, lived and practiced martial arts under the same roof.

The friendship between them is so deep that even though they are not family, they are better than family.

Therefore, the "Tsueikan Faction" headed by Aoto naturally maintains a certain distance from outsiders...that is, Serizawa Kamo, Niimi Nishiki and Kiyokawa Hachiro.

It is difficult for the former to accept the latter.

The latter disdained to blend in with the former.

To be honest, Aomori doesn't like Serizawa Duck.

He has a rough temperament, a cold face, and always has a scary look of grinding his teeth... Qingdeng hates people with bad personalities.

The other captains of the Bato team couldn't get along with Serizawa Kamo.

Some people even hate Serizawa Duck.

For example, Saito Kazuo had a hard time dealing with him.

More than five months ago, during the mobilization ceremony for the Shinsengumi to launch troops in Kamiro, Serizawa Kamo made rude remarks to Aomori, which aroused Saito Ichi's dissatisfaction.

Thanks to the director's intervention, otherwise the two men would have started fighting directly.

To this day, the relationship between Saitoichi and Serizawa Kamo is still tense.

When they meet each other, they will ignore each other tacitly and treat each other as nothing.

Only Gensaburo Inoue, who had fought side by side with Serizawa Kamo in the "Iga Attack and Defense", could say a few words to him.

However, the two of them were just acquaintances.

The members of the Fourth Division are all afraid of Serizawa Duck.

Serizawa likes to hit people with the iron fan he carries with him, which is engraved with the four characters "Serve the country with loyalty".

If any soldier accidentally offended him...it's not hard to imagine what would happen next.

It can be said that, except for Niimi Nishiki, who is a close friend of his from the same hometown, no one in the Shinsengumi is close to Serizawa Kamo.

However, as much as he hates him, Aonto still admires Serizawa Kamo's outstanding skills and his brave and fearless style.

When faced with a tough and bloody battle, he really dared to fight!

The best example is the "Iga Attack and Defense Battle" a while ago.

At that time, Serizawa's bravery and good fighting skills deeply impressed Qingto.

There is a saying that "one soldier is in raging state, and generals are in raging group".

Although the soldiers of the Fourth Division are very afraid of Serizawa Kamo, because of this, as long as Serizawa Kamo gives the order "Follow me", they will not dare to disobey!

Truly "I am more afraid of Serizawa Kamo's iron fan than my enemy's sword."

Under the leadership of Serizawa Kamo, the fourth team has extremely strong combat effectiveness.

A hard-blooded man like Serizawa Kamo who dares to fight and charge, and puts his life and death at risk every time he faces a battle would be a waste of resources if he is not reused.

He is like a sharp double-edged sword.

If you don't use it well, it will hurt yourself.

Used well, it is an excellent weapon to defeat thieves and kill enemies!

Therefore, Aoto held the idea of ​​"reducing talents in any way" and greatly expanded the fourth division, giving Serizawa Kamo the largest number of troops.

Anyway, he is not afraid of the other party making mistakes.

Not to mention Aoto, the only person in the Shinsengumi who can completely suppress Serizawa Kamo is Souji.

As for those who are as strong as Serizawa Kamo, there are even more people.

Kondo Isamu, Hijikata Toshizo, Nagakura Shinpachi and Saito Ichi all have strong strength that can compete with Serizawa Kame.

Although the Fourth Division has many troops, its overall quality is far from comparable to that of the First, Second, and Third Divisions.

In a word: Aoto is not afraid of Serizawa Duck at all! If he dares to mess around, Qingdeng has no less than ten ways to kill him!

Gensaburo Inoue and Heisuke Toudo both have strong strength and trustworthy loyalty, so they each have 450 soldiers.

Niimi Nishiki is not a close confidant of Qingto, and secondly, he does not have high-strength skills, so he has the smallest number of troops in the "ordinary infantry team", only 400 people.

This is roughly the situation with the infantry.

The current situation of the Cavalry Team...that is, the Seventh Division and the Tenth Division is quite complicated.

Based on the existing financial income and after careful study, Qingdeng finally decided to control the current strength of the cavalry to 500 men, with the seventh division and the tenth division each accounting for half, each with 250 cavalry.

The cavalry is very expensive.

If the military expansion is too drastic all at once, it may cause a serious financial crisis.

By then, not only had the cavalry not been trained, but all the money had been spent.

Yataro Iwasaki is not a god.

No matter how much he can make money, he still doesn't have the ability to "make money out of thin air."

Not only did cavalry cost a lot of money, but it was also difficult to train.

Due to the lack of conditions for riding horses, even samurai from well-off families rarely had the opportunity to practice riding skills.

Most of the soldiers in the 7th and 10th divisions didn't even know how to mount their horses.

In other words, at this stage, the Shinsengumi cavalry are still in a state of "learning to ride a horse."

It is still far away from "practicing riding combat and forming considerable combat effectiveness"!

Division 9 is in the same situation.

It's hard to practice cavalry, but it's even harder to practice ninja!

For the Japanese nowadays, "ninja" is already an extremely old term.

Since ancient times, ninjas have been a special type of military force that is not popular, like "rats in the gutter."

No matter where or when, samurai would not bother to be ninjas unless they were desperate.

During the warring States period, ninjas could still make ends meet.

When the world is at peace, the ninjas will naturally be useless.

Ninjas became scarce.

The inheritance of ninjutsu is even worse.

Nowadays, ninjutsu basically only has two states left - lost and on the verge of being lost.

There are still some people who have been exposed to equestrian and other things.

As for ninjutsu, I have never seen it before!

Training ninjas from scratch...this is a big project!

Qingto's requirements for Division 9 are not high.

He didn't need Naruto breathing fire and spitting water.

There is no need for female ninjas who can seduce enemy generals and give them a soft thumb.

Being able to fly over walls and climb walls, being able to sneak into hidden facilities - if he could reach this level, Qingdeng would be satisfied.

After being specially selected by Qingto, the members of Division 9 all have bodies that are very suitable for practicing ninjutsu - they are thin and unattractive, and they would be hard to find if they were thrown into a busy city.

Aomori entrusted Kinoshita Mai with the important task of "training ninjas and building the ninth division into a qualified ninja force".

Although Kinoshita Mai felt a lot of pressure, she still resolutely accepted the appointment.

I have to say that Kinoshita Mai is quite good at teaching people.

Under her careful guidance, the members of Division 9 have grown at an impressive rate.

If everything goes well, it will only take about a year for Qingto to see a formally formed ninja army!

It is worth mentioning that because she has become a teacher and has to interact with people for a long time every day, Kinoshita Mai's temperament has improved a lot even though she was afraid of being born.

It seems that it won't be long before Kinoshita Mai will be able to completely get rid of the labels of "fear of strangers" and "gloomy girl".

Although the size of the Shinsengumi has increased, there are still many internal problems that need to be resolved one by one.

The work Qingdeng has to deal with next is still heavy.

The road to a strong army is long and difficult!

…

…

After Qingteng returned to the capital, no big news happened in either the Eastern Kingdom or the Western Kingdom, whether it was the Samu sect or the King Zun sect.

It was peaceful... so peaceful that it felt abnormal.

However, a small thing happened - it was a small thing to others, but it was a big thing to Qingdeng!

To put it simply - Qingden underestimated the impact of the talent "Core of the Elephant" after reaching the highest level.

Therefore... he incurred the displeasure of the Director-General.

In recent days, the General Secretary has been avoiding Qingto.

When others saw this, they probably thought that Qingto and Souji had a quarrel.

In fact, not so.

The cause of this incident must start when Qingden first returned to Beijing.

As soon as he returned to Kyoto, Aoto, who "missed" Souji very much, took advantage of the darkness and happily sneaked into her room.

The next day, Souji's complexion became very pale, and his legs would shake uncontrollably when he walked...

It was also from this day on that when Souji saw Qingden, he would subconsciously tighten his neck, like a mouse meeting a cat, and then turn around anxiously and take a detour to avoid Qingden.

The General Secretary's ignorance and avoidance made Qingden want to cry without tears.

Fortunately, Souji is a soft-eared girl who is easy to talk to.

Qingdeng tried his best to coax him back to the headquarters.

However... the day after the two "reconciled", Souji turned pale again, staggered on his feet, and then ignored and avoided Aoden again.

This is the first time Qingden hates a certain talent so much...

…

…

Wenjiu three years (1863), July 15, night——

Kyoto, Mibu Township, Shinsengumi camp, Qinghe Hachiro's room——

Before Qinghe Hachiro committed suicide, he concentrated on reading Mito Blood's classic "History of Japan".

Suddenly, someone's voice came from outside the door:

"Mr. Qinghe, it's me."

Qinghe Hachilang responded without raising his head:

"come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a big man push open the door and rush to Qinghe Hachilang's side. He knelt down on one knee, put his lips close to his ear, and whispered for a while.

For a moment, Qinghe Hachiro's pupils suddenly shrank, and his cheeks were full of surprise.

"Sugiura, is this serious?"

The big man... Sugiura nodded vigorously.

"'Over there' said: See you at Omiya in Ushishou Town at nine o'clock tonight (12 o'clock in the evening)."

"..."

Qinghe Hachiro lowered his eyelids, said nothing, and thought to himself.

…

…

It's night, nine o'clock in the evening——

Shinsengumi camp, somewhere——

Rustling, rustling... A sneaky figure cautiously walked through the dense bushes.

It is Qinghe Hachiro!

He used the cover of the bushes to move to the wall inch by inch.

Then, he looked around, not missing any corner.

After confirming that no one was following him, he jumped up like a green onion, reached out to grab the edge of the wall, then flipped up like origami, climbed over the wall, and escaped from the camp neatly.

As soon as his feet landed on the ground, he held on to the saber on his waist and hurried towards the alley not far away, heading towards Ushishou Town.

About twenty minutes later, he successfully arrived in Ushishou Town, and then found an izakaya called "Omiya".

He walked forward and knocked on the shop door.

A deep voice sounded from behind the door:

"When will the curtain fall?"

Qinghe Hachiro immediately replied:

"Soon, soon, soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old shop door creaked slowly open, revealing a gap big enough for an adult to sneak in.

Qinghe Hachiro held the untied saber in his right hand and walked in without thinking.

The shop door was closed again.

The store is very dark.

As soon as he entered the door, Qinghe Hachiro felt the sharp sight of a knife - several mighty warriors standing in the darkness, staring directly at him.

Qinghe Hachiro glanced at these warriors roughly, then fixed his gaze and looked at the table directly in front of him.

There is an oil lamp on the table in front of him - this is the only source of light here - and opposite the table, there is a handsome young man sitting.

The slightly swaying flame of the oil lamp illuminated the young man's face in flickering light.

With a smile on his face, the young man slowly raised his gaze and met Qinghe Hachiro's eyes.

"Qinghe-kun, this is the first time we meet. I am the leader of the Tosa King's Party - Takeshi Hanheita."

Saying that, Takeshi Hanpingta made a "please sit down" gesture.

Qinghe Hachiro sat down and nodded in greeting neither humble nor overbearing:

"I am Qinghe Balang, Mr. Wu Shi. I have long admired your name."

The two sat facing each other.

After both of them made a brief self-introduction, Wu Shi Banping Taishu raised his voice and said seriously:

"Mr. Qinghe, time is of the essence. Please forgive me for getting straight to the point."

“I am very interested in your plan to ‘subvert the Shinsengumi from within’.”

"The existence of the Shinsengumi is a major obstacle to the realization of the great cause of Zunban."

"Therefore, we, the Tosa Kinnobu Party, are bound to become enemies of the Shinsengumi."

"To be honest, I have been making plans to 'annihilate the Shinsengumi' since a long time ago."

"I feel very relieved to know that there are heroes like you in the Shinsengumi."

"So I'd love to work with you."

After Qinghe Balang heard this, he immediately curled up his lips.

"Mr. Takeshi, I am so happy to hear you say that."

As soon as he finished speaking, the back of his head seemed to change his face, put on a regretful expression, and let out a long sigh.
