"The Zhangde Autumn Exercise is over, and the Qing court officially announced the plan for determining the new official system, negating Yuan Shikai's plan to abolish the Military Aircraft Department and establish the Prime Minister, stipulating the abolition of the Ministry of Soldiers, the establishment of the 6th Army Officer Academy in Baoding, and the addition of the 6th Military Department, with the Manchu upstart Tieliang as the secretary of the 6th Military Department, and stripping Yuan Shikai's military power to the end......"

Yanagi Qianbing turned around to face Kotaro Munakata who had just returned to the office, and he didn't feel tired in his heart, but after missing the guidance of this treacherous and cunning senior, although he is now commendable in intelligence work, he is obviously much inferior to this former boss in the infiltration and placement of spies.

"Cheng is also autumn exercises, defeat is also autumn exercises, although Zhangde autumn exercises have made Yuan Shikai's prestige in the Beiyang Army reach its peak, but because of the huge sensational effect, it has intensified the suspicion of Cixi and the Manchu nobles against him, and now Yuan Shikai is forced to resign from the eight part-time duties, and the military power of the towns of the Beiyang Army is under the jurisdiction of the 6th Military Department, Zong Fangjun thinks, should we withdraw from the spy around Yuan Shikai?"

Kotaro Munakata's head was lowered, and he didn't have the domineering spirit he used to have before, but his eyes were silent, but he unconsciously showed a hint of jealousy, "Although Yuan Shikai has temporarily lost power, his control and infiltration of the Beiyang Army can be described as leaky, in this regard, it is better for Liu Shengjun not to be in a hurry, and it is much safer to see how the Aoki Mansion responds!" ”

The two have been fighting openly and secretly for these days, but because of the personnel changes in the military department, Munakata Kotaro has been defeated repeatedly, if it weren't for Aoki Xuanjun's secret support, Munakata Kotaro's fate would probably be miserable, but even so. He was also unwilling to accept the deliberate temptation of Yanagi's thousands of soldiers to intensify the contradictions.

Yanagi Qianbing nodded with satisfaction, looked at this extremely capable former boss and said: "How are things arranged over there in Okinawa, Tang Shouliu's group of martial artists, haven't they decided when Dong Enna Kuanliang will come to China?" ”

Kotaro Munakata lowered his head slightly, and said cautiously: "Originally, Funakoshi Yoshizhen was ready to come to China to challenge the mad monkey in place of Higashi Enna, but his master Anrian Hengshi had just died, so his other master was Zhou Anheng, so he forcibly stopped his trip and asked him to keep filial piety at Anri's tomb for three years......"

"Anrianheng?"

Seeing the flow of thousands of soldiers in Yanagi, he was a little puzzled. Kotaro Munakata had a straight face. He explained: "Anri Anheng is a branch of the former five famous Ryukyu clans, the Mao clan Chicheng family, the 18-year-old Baili hand martial artist Matsumura Zongbang (Han name Wu Chengda) as a teacher, and Makishi Chaozhong and Itosu Anheng as brothers, and his body is as light as a swallow. And it is said that siblings are like swords. Extremely lethal with empty hands. Therefore, he took up the position of the former Ryukyu king Shangtai......"

Speaking of this, Kotaro Munakata's expression became more respectful, "Since the Ryukyu were incorporated into the Great Japanese Empire. He traveled to Tokyo with Shotai as a hostage, learned bow fighting from Sekiguchi Qingzhi, and returned to Okinawa in 1892. He also learned the lost Shingen-ryu Kendo, and was revered as the ...... of the three great masters of the Rite"

"Yaga, such a popular figure, why can't he really serve our great Japanese empire, but a generation of martial arts masters can only die of old age in the end, this is simply the biggest weakness!"

Qianbing scolded angrily a few times, and then realized that Munegata Kotaro was also the successor of the Tang Teru, but in the end he couldn't help the resentment in his heart, so he said to Munegata Kotaro very dissatisfied: "The people of Tang Terate have always wanted the General Staff Headquarters to put pressure on the Great Nippon Martial Arts Association to recognize their status as Tang Teru, but at this moment of glory for the empire, they have been holding back, I think it is better to let those people in the Jiu-Jitsu Association ......"

Speaking of which, Yanagi Qianbing also knew that this was a little unreliable, and with the current status of the Jiu-Jitsu Society in the country, I am afraid that it would not be like Tang Karudo, relying on a slightly lighter spy branch in the staff of the 6th Army.

Unlike the performative jiu-jitsu that only focused on wrestling in later generations, Bagua and Tang boxing were introduced to Japan with the monks of the Tang and Song dynasties in China, and they were passed down and continued to be practiced for hundreds of years, and in Japan during the Meiji period, there were more than 7oo sub-schools, which referred to hand-to-hand combat in a broad sense, and also referred to the central spirit of avoiding the opponent's attack force and transforming it into a technique to subdue the enemy.

Because it originated from 'Bagua', the ancient Japanese samurai also continued to promote it during the Warring States Period, so as to create the technique of "overcoming rigidity with softness", so in many ancient Japanese schools, it is more customary to call Jiu-Jitsu Jiuquan, from a narrow point of view, it is similar to Baguazhang and even Taijiquan in boxing theory.

Among them, there are many actual combat martial arts that are good at fist and foot fighting, and even Tang Karate, which is the most combative, is also extremely suppressed by the Jiu-Jitsu Association, so he does not hesitate to go through the door of the Guò military world, and wants to obtain the official recognition of the Great Japan Martial Arts Association, so as to be on an equal footing with Jiu-Jitsu.

As for why Yagyu Senbei and Munakata Kotaro attach so much importance to Tang Tedo, because Ryukyu has had a lot of wars since ancient times, and it originated and even flourished in the Chinese Southern Fist lineage, compared with the martial artists who have been peaceful in Japan for a long time, Tang Teryu who has experienced the Ryukyu War and the turmoil of the times, has experienced a lot of actual combat tests of masters.

Of course, even so, Yanagi Senbing, who has lived in China for 2o years, is extremely jealous of these Chinese martial artists who have really experienced a big scene of actual combat and even a rich blood baptism, and if the people of the Jiu-Jitsu Association really accept their invitation, and if they all lose or even be killed when they come to China, I am afraid that their position will be as unsafe as Kotaro Munakata, "What about those people from the Japan Kendo Association?" ”

Seeing that Yanagi's thousands of soldiers were also in chaos because of Yang Meng, Kotaro Munakata secretly laughed in his heart, but his face was silent, "According to your orders, the swordsmen of the four major kendo sects will leave Japan in the next two days, and it is estimated that they will arrive in Shanghai in the near future, and at that time, let them find an opportunity to enter the Shanghai Guoshu Pavilion, and let these East Asian sick men know that the great Japanese kendo is powerful......"

Compared with the desertion of Liu Sheng's thousands of soldiers, the Shanghai No. 1 National Art Hall is now crowded, counting Yang Meng and Huo Yuanjia, there are already six grandmaster-level masters here, and as for the master-level dark strength peak masters, there are also more than ten at this moment.

Of course, these big boxers. Not all of them are from the National Art Hall, most of them are from the Nanquan lineage.

Under the influence of Yang Meng, the title of Guoshu, which should have appeared after the Republic of China, appeared early in the land of Shenzhou, and the Guoshu Pavilion that appeared under this influence also spread all over the north and south of the river with the south of the Northern Fist.

Among them, there are such as Huang Feihong and Li Qianjin, who celebrate each other with their foreheads and have many disciples, and they have long responded to the call and set up a local Guoshu Museum to teach orthodox ancient Nanquan, so naturally there are disgruntled, thinking that Guoshu is a deviant master.

It is said to be deviant. In fact, it's just for fame and fortune.

Ten tigers went down to the south of the Yangtze River. It is not a simple northern boxing to the south, these boxing masters who are in the age of fighting, after coming to the rich Jiangnan and southeast coastal areas, this is the style of martial arts practice of the southern compatriots. In no way inferior to the North. And in Guangzhou and even Hong Kong. There are hundreds of martial arts halls.

For this kind of scene, the boxing masters of the northern school were naturally overjoyed, and at the same time they chose a good place and opened the hall one by one to teach apprentices. It also spread the theory of national art put forward by Yang Meng, and even the concept of 'fist does not distinguish between north and south'.

In this way, it is naturally more popular with those enthusiastic young people.

Because the northern martial arts are now united, they all invariably take the name of the Guoshu Museum, but in this way, it has caused a flowering effect everywhere with the Shanghai First Guoshu Museum, which will inevitably affect many people's jobs.

For this reason, some boxing masters in the southern boxing line are not easy to oppose clearly, but in their hearts, they are more and more dissatisfied with the ten tigers of the north for Shang Yunxiang and Sun Lutang.

Why do you want to come to my southern fist to grab a job?

Mo said that the big boxers who taught boxing for a living, and even several great masters of the Northern School had also held official positions in the Qing court.

Masters also have to eat, especially after the advent of thermal weapons, the decline of many professions and even boxers is inevitable.

Since you have come up with the gimmick of the North Fist going south and the Ten Tigers going down to the south of the Yangtze River, then let's just have a South Fist and go north, and the Ten Dragons will enter the North Kingdom.

Yang Meng, a butterfly that has traveled through time and space, not only instigated the concept of the National Art Pavilion to appear in Shenzhou in advance, but also made the southern fist go north that has never been made in later generations, and it became a reality overnight.

Of course, there are many of these southern boxing masters who go north, but almost none of the grandmaster-level figures have come.

Since the Shanghai scholarly sword discussion, these grandmasters who have extremely far-sighted vision and mind have taken the promotion of national art as their own responsibility, and what they wear and think about on weekdays are all white clothes like snow and blood like fire in the national art uniform, and they are now busy passing on the martial arts It is too late, where will they participate in the bad habits of these old schools of martial arts fighting and kicking the hall.

So, when the ten masters of Nanquan who went north came to the First National Art Hall in Shanghai, there was no one to stop this Nanquan from going north, but it was pointless to continue north.

There is nothing else, just because the Ten Tigers of the Northern Faction took advantage of the momentum of righteousness, although they bloomed everywhere, but their kung fu was tougher than one another, and the Ten Dragons of the Southern Faction, which was finally put together, not only did they seem a little unknown, but even the plan that originally wanted to kick the Ten Tigers in the North to give the Northern Ten Tigers a dismount became unrealistic because of the strength of the opponent.

The most important thing is, when did it start, the grandmaster-level masters were so worthless, and there were six grandmasters of the Northern School who were not to mention in a national art hall at the same time, and they were all in the year of fighting?

And the grandmasters of the Southern Sect are either dying of old age now, or they are sitting firmly in the Daoist Hall and standing still.

As for the uninvited 'South Leg' master in front of him, he obviously didn't go all the way with everyone.

"Baichuan returned to Jiangnan this time, firstly, he was entrusted by Master Huang Feihong to be a peacemaker for the reckless move of Nanquan Yimai to go north, and hoped that the First Guoshu Museum could open the Nanquan Guoshu Hall in Shanghai regardless of previous suspicions, so that Nanquan Yimai would spread the Nanfang Guoshu in Jiangnan; Second, by the teachings of the Ninth Tashi Living Buddha, I specially invited several masters of the First National Art Museum to choose a candidate to spread the national art of strengthening the people and healthy body to Houzang, one to be the head of the national art of the monks and soldiers in Houzang, and the other to fight against the atrocities of the British army in Tibet! (To be continued!)

ps: Tomorrow my father-in-law and mother-in-law are going home, I have to queue up at the station to buy tickets, and today's second shift is estimated to be very late, tentatively scheduled at around 23 o'clock, I hope the brothers will understand!
