Only in places with narrow terrain, especially places with dense hills and few plains, or in cramped areas such as corridors and rooms, can the true power of the "Mandarin Duck Formation" be unleashed!

The reason why Qingteng made the "Mandarin Duck Formation" one of the required training items for the Shinsengumi was to prepare for street fighting.

Looking all over Japan, there are very few places that are livable.

Tens of millions of people are packed into an area as big as a sesame seed, resulting in extremely high population density in major cities and towns.

The layer upon layer of houses, like a maze, can directly drive a patient with secret phobia to death.

Kyoto is an ancient city with a long history.

After thousands of years of cleaning, a lot of "Shit Mountain Code" has been accumulated.

There are paths and alleys everywhere that lead to unknown places, just like the capillaries in the human body.

If you are not familiar with the terrain of Kyoto, you will definitely get lost when you first come here.

In this way, there is a place for the "Mandarin Duck Formation" to come into play!

Picture this - there's a whole squad of 5 in front of you.

The shield bearer is in the front, followed by the gunner, and behind him is the squad leader who is responsible for directing the battle. The two sword bearers are on the left and right respectively.

?????55.?????

And you only have a knife in your hand.

Even if you want to fight back, you don’t know where to start!

The tip of a spearman's spear follows you like a shadow. Wherever you go, the tip of the spear follows you.

Even if you are lucky enough to escape the spearman's attack, you will hit the shieldman's shield.

You want to launch a sneak attack from the side? The two swordsmen responsible for guarding the left and right wings are not for show!

The so-called "one-sided" is nothing more than that.

From the beginning of the battle to the end of the battle, in less than 5 minutes, all the Tosa Kinwang members in the house were eliminated.

There are some fish that slip through the net and plan to jump out of the window to escape.

As a result, as soon as their front feet jumped out of the window sill, their back feet were caught by the thick surrounding net outside the house.

Most of the members of the Tosa Kinwang Party did not even have time to get close to their opponents until they were captured.

Relying on the overwhelming numbers, poor equipment, and poor training level, the Shinsengumi managed to remove this stronghold without any damage and wiped out the Tosa Kinou faction members here.

…

…

Similar scenes are happening all over Kyoto.

Groups of soldiers wearing light green feathers walked through the streets and alleys of Kyoto, heading towards the secret strongholds of the Tosa Kinnoi Party!

Their goals are extremely clear and they act extremely quickly! They are really resolute and resolute!

So decisive, so resolute, as if they already knew the exact location of the various strongholds of the Tosa King Party!

The decisive battle between the two major organizations, the Shinsengumi and the Tosa Kinou Party, started just like that.

Of course, rather than calling it a "decisive battle"... it would be more accurate to call it a "pursuit and annihilation".

…

…

"Teacher Wushi! Run away! Run away!"

Wushi Banpingtai was hiding in a small temple outside Luoyang.

Just now, he encountered what his friends in other strongholds were experiencing - the Shinsengumi suddenly came and surrounded them!

The size of the Shinsengumi soldiers surrounding the small temple is at least two hundred!

But there are only 18 people around Wushi Hanpingtai...

18 versus 200, the advantage is his!

Anyone who knows a little bit about arithmetic knows that this is a losing battle.

"Teacher Wushi! If you don't escape, it will be too late!"

"Teacher Wushi, please rest assured! We will definitely fight a bloody path for you!"

"We can't lose Teacher Wushi!"

Everyone in the temple urged Wushi Banping to run away quickly.

However... Takeshi Hanheita seemed to have lost his soul. He stood there blankly, his expression was dull, his eyes were dull, and he kept mumbling:

"Impossible...how is it possible...why was the Shinsengumi able to find this place..."

His current state, compared with his previous high-spirited appearance, was completely different.

It's no wonder he has changed so much.

After all... the blow he suffered was not an ordinary serious one.

First, the imperial court fell to the Samu faction, and the Zunxing movement fell into an unprecedented low ebb.

Then came the stab in the back of the former feudal lord Yamauchido, and the organization he had built with so much effort was destroyed overnight.

A lifelong ideal was shattered.

Nowadays, even your own life may be lost.

However, Takeshi Hanheita is not an ordinary person after all.

Shocked and frightened, depressed and depressed, he did not lose his due sanity after all.

"wrong……"

"There's no way the Shinsengumi will find this place!"

He frowned, narrowed his eyes, and continued through gritted teeth:

"There's a mole...!"

"It's definitely a leak from the insider...!"

Apart from the "leak from an insider", Takeichi Hanheita really couldn't think of any other reason that could explain the "unexpected arrival" of the Shinsengumi.

Under normal circumstances, everyone present might have responded positively to Takeichi Hanheita and angrily scolded this unknown mole.

What a pity, at this moment when every second counts, no matter how calm a person is, it is difficult to remain calm.

"Teacher Wushi! We can't wait any longer! Come with me!"

A big hand poked out from the diagonal stab and grabbed Takeshi Hanheita's left wrist.

This person is none other than another person as famous as Kawagami Hikosai - Okada Izo.

Okada Izo drew his sword in his hand and said loudly:

"Teacher Wu Shi, please don't worry!"

"I, Okada Izo, will definitely help you escape!"

"Even if it means risking my life, I won't hesitate!"

…

…

In fact, today's "War to Annihilate the Tosa Kintoi Party" is a top-secret operation within the Shinsengumi.

Only a few people know about this battle.

Most people know nothing about this.

For example - Qinghe Hachiro had no idea about this.

…

…

Kyoto, Mibu Township, Shinsengumi camp——

"Mr. Qinghe, Mr. Niwang orders you to go to the council chamber immediately!"

Qinghe Hachiro responded feebly:

"Well...I know...I'll go right away."

With that said, he stood up weakly, picked up the sword on the knife holder, left the room like a float, and walked towards the meeting hall.

In recent days, the pain and pressure that Hachiro Kiyokawa has endured are completely consistent with those of Genrui Hisaka, Hanheita Takeichi and others.

An abyss-like sense of hesitation enveloped him tightly, leaving him completely unsure of where to go next.

He had just formed an alliance with the Tosa Kin royal party a while ago.

He particularly cherished this precious "friendship" with Takeichi Hanheita, and thought wholeheartedly about "cooperating with the Tosa Kintoi party both internally and externally, and working together to achieve great success! Completely seize the Shinsengumi."
