The red and white teams have been arranged on the east and west sides of the training ground.
In essence, the "pre-screen trial match" is actually just a super-large "red and white match".
Both warring parties wore red and white headbands to identify themselves, and porcelain bowls were tied to the headbands.
Using wooden knives and wooden guns as weapons, if the porcelain bowl on the forehead is broken, it means you are out.
However, unlike the "Red and White Combat", the victory condition of the "Behind the Curtain Trial" is not "defeating the opponent's general", but "annihilating the opponent" - that is, defeating everyone on the opponent's side!
A true fight to the last man standing!
The fight will not end until either side's entire army is annihilated... You can imagine how intense the battle will be in this type of drill.
With new recruits joining one after another, the strength of each division is rapidly expanding.
Take the first team, third team, fourth team and sixth team that are currently arrayed in front of Qingto and others as an example.
The current strength of these four troops are -
First team: 80 people.
Division Three: 120 people.
Division 4: 250 people.
Division 6: 260 people.
The general secretary and others were all promoted from the original "very long" to "hundred-person chief" or "three-hundred-person chief" in one fell swoop.
As the size of the army continued to expand, Qingdeng also began to gradually deepen the specific functions of each division of the Battery Squadron.
Division 9 was identified as a ninja unit early on.
The 7th and 10th divisions were reorganized into cavalry divisions.
The first team, the second team and the third team are firmly in the top spot of the ace army.
These three divisions will never be touched unless absolutely necessary.
Once these three troops are dispatched, there will be nothing more than the following two situations:
First, the war situation is no longer optimistic.
Second, overwhelming force is needed to open up the situation.
The above is the positioning of these three teams - either to turn the tide! Or to decide the outcome in one battle!
Therefore, the recruits admitted to these three divisions either possess superior physiques or possess extraordinary martial arts skills.
Such strict entry standards naturally make the strength of these three divisions much smaller than other troops.
Although the number of troops is slightly smaller, no one will underestimate their combat effectiveness.
Especially since their captains are still the three "Humanoid Gundams".
Some of the good guys within the Shinsengumi called Isamu Kondo, Toshizo Hijikata, Souji Okita, Shinpachi Nagakura and Ichi Saito collectively known as the "Five Heavenly Kings of the Shoeikan School" - a title that was half awe and half a sign of admiration.
Highly recommended!
Qingnobo ordered people to move to Mazar in advance so that Tokugawa Iemo and others could have a better viewing experience.
The red team is the 1st and 6th divisions, with a total strength of 340 people.
White's third and fourth divisions have a total strength of 370 men.
Each of the two sides has an ace army. In terms of military strength, the latter has a slight advantage.
However, anyone who has a slight understanding of the Shinsengumi's combat strength composition must know that it is hard to say whether the latter can get an advantage in this military exercise.
After all...she is on the red side.
…
…
Seeing that the red and white soldiers looking downstairs were almost ready, Aomori turned to look at Tokugawa Iemo next to him, casting a questioning gaze.
Tokugawa Iemo nodded lightly.
When Qingdeng saw this, he stood up immediately.
At this time, everyone up and down the watchtower knew that the martial arts performance was about to begin, and there was a tense atmosphere in the air.
The surroundings became silent and silent.
Only various flags fluttered in the wind, making hunting noises.
Qingdeng slowly moved to the edge of the watchtower, and then suddenly raised the military fan in his hand.
[Note: Military round fan: a round fan made of leather or thin iron, which is a prop used to issue military instructions]
In an instant, it seemed like a thunderbolt exploded out of the blue!
The big drums below the watchtower started beating in unison.
At first glance, it seems to be no different from ordinary drum sounds.
But gradually, everyone present felt the frightening majesty!
Although the rhythm of the drum sound is very simple and unpretentious, it is concise and clear.
Because of this, he has a different kind of courage.
When the beating became fierce, it seemed as if even the clouds in the sky were shaking!
The drum beat gradually became more and more intense, and then the whining conch trumpet sounded.
The loud and mighty sound of the horn soared into the sky, hovering and stirring over the training ground, and spread far away with the help of the strong wind.
The Souji pulled out the wooden knife stuck on the ground at his feet.
At the same time, Saito Kazuya on the opposite side held a knife in his hand.
Chief, Saitoichi: "Follow me!"*2
Before I could think about it, the soldiers from both sides were already out in battle at the same time! They were shouting and attacking each other!
The charging speed is extremely fast, but it is fast and not chaotic.
In the blink of an eye, the two armies collided!
The first one to come out on top was the red side.
The red side showed terrifying fighting power.
Souji and Genzaburo Inoue charged forward. The leading soldiers formed cone-shaped formations and penetrated into White's formation separately, launching a thunderous and fierce offensive.
Slashes, spear thrusts, shoulder collisions... White's formation instantly became riddled with holes.
Of course, White's defeat is only temporary.
"Attack back!"
Saito gave a concise and concise order, and then swung his sword casually - with just one blow, he shattered three porcelain bowls in one go.
"Don't retreat! Move forward! Even if you are about to fall, you must fall on the way to charge!"
Serizawa Duck roared and kicked a certain recruit who was cowering.
Zhai and Qin took the lead and personally served as the arrowheads of the counterattack.
Encouraged by the two of them, White quickly stabilized its position, regained its fighting spirit, and gradually launched a counterattack.
"Kill ah ah ah ah!"
"Follow Captain Okita!"
"Quick! Quick! Keep up! Fill that gap!"
"Let them see the majesty of the Shinsengumi's strongest unit!"
"Fart! Our third division is the strongest unit of the Shinsengumi!"
…
The harsh shouts of killing hung over the training ground for a long time.
As the battle progressed and the battle situation continued to change, Tokugawa Iemo and others were increasingly unable to hide the look of shock on their faces, and their facial expressions became increasingly out of control.
They soon discovered that the soldiers of the red and white sides were not fighting in disorder like street gangsters.
Except for a few individuals such as Souji, Saito Ichi, and Serizawa Kamo, most of the soldiers carried out offense and defense in small teams.
Some people are responsible for the main attack, some are responsible for the auxiliary attack, and some are responsible for the cover...
It looks chaotic, but in fact the soldiers on all fronts are delivering the offensive in an orderly manner.
In addition to their combat literacy, the fighting will of the soldiers downstairs also deeply shocked Tokugawa Iemo and others.
Right at the forefront of the battle between the two sides, harsh scenes can be seen everywhere.
People who were knocked to the ground, people who accidentally broke their arms and legs, people with bleeding mouths and noses...
Both the red side and the white side were all fully engaged in the martial arts performance in front of them with full energy and enthusiasm.
He didn't slack off just because it was a martial arts performance.
What Qingdeng said just now, "Everything is based on actual combat," was not just random talk.
This martial arts performance is indeed full of courage in actual combat, both inside and outside!
At this moment, everyone on the watchtower couldn't help but think: If they work so hard even in daily martial arts performances, how brave will they be when actual combat comes?
Gudong, Gudong, Gudong, Gudong, Gudong...
The sound of swallowing saliva echoed loudly.
The "pro-military" generals, those who just praised the "Third Division" and secretly disparaged the Shinsengumi, are now silent.
They all looked at their eyes, nose and heart, their faces turned pale, and they looked like ostriches.
After witnessing the bravery of the Shinsengumi, no one dared to speak out loud.
At this time, Tokugawa Iemo and others discovered something that concerned them very much - whenever a wounded soldier retreated, people wearing white feathers would immediately rush up to greet them and take the wounded soldier away.
.
Looking at these people in white, Tokugawa Iemo asked a question he had repeated many times since entering the Shinsengumi camp:
"Qingdeng, who are these people?"
Qingdeng immediately replied:
"They are the 'prescription' people."
"'Medicine'? Are they doctors?"
Qingdeng nodded:
"That's right."
"According to my observation, not many people died directly on the battlefield."
"Many soldiers died not during the war, but after the war."
"Due to a series of reasons such as too few doctors and insufficient medicines, many soldiers who could have survived died on their beds in agony."
“Take the recent ‘Iga Attack and Defense War’ as an example.”
"Leave aside those seriously injured patients who had to shake their heads when Hua Tuo came."
"A considerable number of wounded soldiers only suffered minor injuries, such as broken legs and feet, and chopped arms."
"As a result, the wound became inflamed and suppurated because he was not able to receive rescue in time, and he eventually became disabled or even lost his life."
"It is both sad and regrettable that these precious soldiers died in vain."
"Therefore, in order to prevent this from happening, I decided to establish an institution dedicated to treating injuries of soldiers."
"This is the 'medicinal prescription' that you see now."
"No age limit, no gender limit, no genre limit."
"Whether you are a Kampo doctor or a Orchid doctor, as long as you can treat diseases, especially doctors who are good at treating knife wounds, gunshot wounds and bruises, you can enter the medical prescription of my Shinsengumi."
【Note·Hanfang medicine, Lanfang medicine: that is, traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine.】
"The medical party was officially established half a month ago. So far, it has 6 members."
"Although the number is small, these six members are all experienced doctors."
"Thanks to them, soldiers injured during daily drills have received timely and good treatment."
"However, compared to the scale that the Shinsengumi will have after that, there are really too few doctors."
"I plan to maintain the ratio of doctors and soldiers in the Shinsengumi at '1:100'."
"Therefore, at this stage, I have decided to gradually expand the scale of the medical prescription to at least 30 people."
Hearing this, Tokugawa Iemo and others all looked surprised and inexplicable.
They looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, as if they were trying to find something on each other's faces.
In the end, they only found strong looks of shock on each other's faces.
A medical institution dedicated to serving the military... This concept is too advanced for them!
Not to mention in today's Japan, even in today's Western countries, "field nursing" has only just begun.
The medical prescription established by Qingdeng completely exceeded their imagination.
Suddenly, Yamaki Yunlang stretched out his hand and pointed at someone on the "battlefield".
"Master Zhenfu, who is this?"
Qingdeng looked up and smiled slightly:
"Captain of the Shinsengumi Batto Squadron 1st Division, Chief Okita Fusara."
Yamaki Yunlang murmured in a daze:
"Why don't I have such a strong general under my command..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately came back to his senses.
He actually admired and envied the "enemy's" generals... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but lower his head in shame.
It’s no wonder that Yunro Yamaki had such a reaction.
Not only him, but everyone on the watchtower was shocked by the heroism and strength of the General Secretary!
From the moment the battle began, the General Secretary took the lead and charged straight into the enemy's lines.
As "the number one person under Aoto", Souji's performance never disappoints.
Run, jump, pounce... It's like entering a deserted place!
Wherever she attacked, pieces of the porcelain bowl fell to the floor.
Not to mention hitting the porcelain bowl on her forehead, White's soldiers couldn't even touch the corners of her clothes!
At this moment, the Souji seemed to sense something. He suddenly stopped and turned to look to his left.
In front of her, a general holding a sword in his left hand walked toward her in a leisurely manner.
Souji was killing the white side's heads, but on the other hand, Saito Kazuo was also killing the red side's heads.
The strongest combat forces of both sides finally met head-on.
Meeting on a narrow road... No need for any dialogue, no need for any communication - the two people's heels raise light dust in no particular order! Attack each other in seconds!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The two wooden swords collided continuously in mid-air.
Souji and Saito Kazuo are the same type of swordsmen - they are both full of explosive power! They pursue victory with one blow!
Physical strength is Souji's only weakness.
She is well aware of her own weaknesses, so she always avoids wars of attrition.
So, after a few rounds of fighting with Saito, she directly released her ultimate move——
She swung the knife diagonally to force the opponent back, then pulled the knife back to her hand and assumed a calm posture.
When Saito saw this, his pupils immediately tightened, and then he subconsciously stepped back, holding the knife in front of his chest in a defensive posture.
The next moment, an extremely fast and straight blade cut through the atmosphere and was immediately in front of Saito Ichi!
The secret of nature's inner flow·Ping Qingyan's three stages of suddenness!
Saito gritted his teeth and raised his knife to deflect Souji's first stab.
Before he could catch his breath, the second stab came one after another.
Saito tried his best and just barely managed to fend it off.
However...the third sting came.
This time, Saitoichi was really powerless.
Snap!
The tip of the knife stabbed the porcelain bowl on Saito's forehead impartially.
Saitoichi, defeated!
