Crossover in the Anime World

The realistic game made Kondo Isao suspicious. From protecting the imperial court to resisting the imperial court, he lost so many comrades that he began to think about whether the shogunate was worth protecting.

At the same time, Katsura Kotaro is also thinking about a question. If the anti-barbarian activities are successful and the heavenly beings are really driven away, will the shogunate be better? At first, he only participated in the war for the sake of his teacher. Gradually, he became an anti-foreign warrior and had a group of subordinates, but he never thought about what kind of country he should build.

Now looking at the alliance and struggle between the landlords and aristocrats, Gui couldn't help but think about whether he could build a good country with these insects. If not, what is the solution?

The situation of the shogunate was to rely on heavenly beings for development. By concentrating all the people in Edo Castle through urbanization and driving away heavenly beings, there was really no hope for development. But if we don't drive away the heavenly beings, this country will always be cut off by the heavenly beings. Although there is development, there is an upper limit to this development, and they cannot control their own destiny.

This is difficult. It is difficult to develop without being separated from heaven and humans. Relying on heavenly beings and being cut off from leeks.

Not to mention that there are still many landowners and nobles who want to suppress the development of society, which is really difficult.

It’s not that the powerful landlords don’t want development, but they want development to be controlled by them. If it develops, they will have seven floors, and three floors will depend on their mood. So they have to suppress development, because once it explodes, they have no control at all.

Gui saw that the resources were controlled by the landlords, and even the court could not control them. The Yellow Turban Army was unable to shake the status of the nobles. What is even more frightening is the alliance between landlords. Even if the Yellow Turban Army causes trouble in one place, landlords from other places can come together to suppress it.

The Yellow Turban Army was defeated by the landlord coalition.

The imperial court was also overthrown by the landlord coalition.

Of course, the landlords are not just united. When the Yellow Turban Army and the court fail, the landlords will also confront each other. Large landowners merge with small landowners, and there will be wars between landowners in different areas.

The entire era is in chaos. How should we solve this chaos? How to bring this country together again?

Gui didn't know that although he was very powerful, he was just a puppet of the landlords. Once he did anything against the interests of the landlords, he would be replaced. But if he does nothing, he will be replaced even if he is a corpse.

So the two players were confused in the game, and they didn't know which direction to go.

At this point, the work is over and the fighting begins.

Kondo Isao is ready to overthrow this court that is not worth protecting, but Katsura Kotaro decides to rely on the power of the landlords to quell the war first.

They see no way out, but for now all they can do is do their part.

"Team leader?" Jushiro Hijikata understood very well when he saw his boss embarking on a deviant path. What he valued most was his companions, not the country.

"Your true selection team has the potential to be darkened. Are you interested in taking my villain course?" Dulan took the opportunity to promote his villain course and said: "The difference between reality and comics, movies, and games is that there are no A super villain will have a happy ending without defeating the villain. History will not end, it will continue to develop, everything will change, heroes will become dragons, and evil dragons will become heroes. Defeat the boss in the game It’s over, but reality will not end. If you want to protect your companions, you must enlarge the situation.”

Hijikata Jushiro only felt that this was the whisper of the devil.

The difference between reality and works of art is that works of art can end at the best time, but reality will not. Reality is a blessing in disguise, and life may end at the worst time.

The Shinsengumi also have to face the same situation. They are doing okay now, but how long can this state be maintained? The Shinsengumi want to protect their companions, but they are faced with an ever-changing environment, making it difficult to always be safe.

"You are still very young, and there is still a long time in the future. You can protect your companions now, but what about the future? Can you always protect them? Will your companions increase? Can you unite more forces? If you unite, For strength, will there be competition between new companions and old companions?" Duran said.

Every sentence touches on the pain point.

There will be turmoil after the true selection group, which will be the purging of old companions by new companions, and the battle of ideas among companions. As a result, many members of the Shinsengumi died in the battle.

It can be said that these things are bound to happen, because this is the inevitable development law of a power.

Once a force exists, it will have the endogenous nature of survival and absorb new forces. New power and old power will inevitably produce contradictions.

If we do not absorb new power, the old power will continue to decline and will be destroyed.

If it does not absorb power, it will be destroyed. Absorbing power may lead to civil war and destruction.

So it is really difficult to maintain an organization. At this time, many forces will choose to expand externally. While absorbing new people, they will gain benefits by destroying enemies and alleviate the contradiction between the old and the new. But it's just relief, not elimination. Because after expansion, conflicts in the distribution of interests will accumulate. Once expansion stops, conflicts will break out.

Another method is the internal flow of resources. The old person and the new person take turns taking charge. When the old person takes over, the new person only needs to be patient and wait for his turn. On the contrary, when the new person takes over, the old person also has to be patient.

Failure to properly handle the relationship between new people and old people and the inability to redistribute resources are the fundamental reasons for the destruction of dynasties.

If the Shinsengumi wants to protect its companions, it must first give a range of companions.

"Why do people always struggle with various definitions? In fact, it's because only with definitions can there be boundaries. You Shinsengumi want to protect your companions, so how do you define this companion? The people who go into the city together are companions. Are those who have already joined the True Selection Group companions, or are those who will join the True Selection Group also companions? Can you treat members of the True Selection Group equally at different times?" Duran continued to whisper.

Obviously, everyone cannot be treated equally. People's energy is limited. Even a person like Kondo Isao who is not doing his job has a limited number of Shinsengumi members who can understand deeply. The ones who know the most are definitely the companions who went to the city together. The second thing they know about is those who join. Among the members who have been around for a long enough time, the most unfamiliar ones are definitely the new ones.

"You think they are companions, will they agree with you?" Duran said.

This is a very real problem. Countless people want to solve this problem, but it is difficult to do so.

The Shinsengumi is also an organization. Even if Kondo Isao always says he will protect his companions, there will still be civil strife. New companions will also cleanse old companions.

Seeing Isao Kondo resisting the imperial court for the sake of his companions, Duran believed that the Shinsengumi could turn into an evil force.

"When you are a bad person, you don't have to think about your companions. You only need to consider the results. Unscrupulous means are synonymous with bad people." Duran said: "The word companion is too limited. How many companions can one person have? It's only ten or twenty. How many people can we really choose to form a team? More than a hundred, or even more, can they all become companions? Companions are not as good as comrades, and like-mindedness is worse than brotherhood."

It makes sense, but what is the program of the Shinsengumi? To protect the shogunate? Certainly not, these people all know how dirty the shogunate is. What about fighting against the shogunate? The Shinsengumi will definitely not be confrontational.

Get promoted and make a fortune? Definitely not. Hijikata Jushiro found that they had no program at all, so they could not express like-minded aspirations and could only appeal to companionship.

But this is not possible. Watching Kondo Isao in the game step by step towards madness, Jushiro Hijikata feels that all this will happen in reality sooner or later, and he becomes anxious.
