!!Ousen Army
Ousen's personal army. For most of the series, Ousen sought to hide his true strength, only revealing his hands when he is placed in command of conquering Gyou.
[[folder:General Ousen]]
!!Wang Jian/Ousen
The leader of the Ou clan and Ouhon's father who secretly harbors a desire to rule a kingdom on his own. Resultantly, Ousen's warfare is pragmatic and defensive, carried by his tremendous strategic talent.
->Stats: Strength |93|, Leadership |93|, Knowledge |97|, Ambition |Secretly 100|
----
* AmbitionIsEvil: His desire for kinghood is portrayed very negatively and ominously despite him not actually done anything terrible in pursuit of it- in fact, it causes him to be more merciful than other commanders.
* AlmightyJanitor: Ousen's abilities were equal to that of the Qin 6 as far back as Ouki's era, but he was never made a member because King Sho simply did not trust him. He remained a mere deputy of Mougou until the latter's death despite such calibre.
* BadassBeard
* BatmanGambit: Incredibly adept at reading foes and predicting their movements- in the battle of Kankoku Pass he not only predicts Ordo's movements completely to cripple his core unit, but also predicts he will be too psychologically broken to stop him from saving Kankoku Pass from Karin.
* BigDamnHeroes: The Ousen army arrives in the nick of time to save Kankoku Pass from Karin, becoming the decisive factor in Qin's victory.
* TheChessmaster: His style of warfare. His ability to manipulate both enemy and ally, plans moves far in advance, and predict his opponent is unmatched among current Qin generals. Shouheikun hence views him as the most fitting leader for the crucial Gyou campaign against fellow [[TheChessmaster Chessmaster]] Riboku. His lieutenant Makou describes his strategems as allowing any element to morph into the key to victory.
* CrazyPrepared: His ''Wei Di'' trap against Kyouen is clever, but in case he is OutGambitted or if Renpa showed up he also had a mountain fort planned to ensure his survival.
* CoolMask
* CruelMercy: He spares the citizens of every city he spares around Gyou, but only so they will starve the entire city when they are forced to take refuge within.
* DeathGlare: Almost constantly.
* [[DudeWheresMyRespect Dude, Where's My Respect?]]: Despite being the decisive factor allowing Qin to win the Battle of Kankok Pass, being the shield that saved it during its darkest hour, his achievements are not recognised in the award ceremony because he is distrusted.
* ItsAllAboutMe: He's described as a General who cares about nothing else but himself.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: Will never fight a war which he sees no hope of winning.
* OpenSecret: Pretty much everybody in high command already suspects his ambitions.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: When Shin lashes out in anger about being kept in the dark during the battle of Gyou, Ousen calmly and sensibly explains to him why they had to do so.
* RedEyesTakeWarning
* TheStoic
* TheStarscream: Comes with the territory of AmbitionIsEvil
[[/folder]]
[[folder:General Akou]]
Ousen's right-hand man and the most trusted of his vassals. Akou is a powerful offensive who leads the right wing during the Battle of Shukai Plains.
----
* [[AttackAttackAttack Attack! Attack! Attack!]]: His preferred style of warfare is to charge head on at his opponents with nothing under his sleeve. That being said, [[CombatPragmatist he will use tactical maneuvers and formations if the situation insists]].
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: The strongest warrior and highest ranking of Ousen's vassals.
* DeathGlare: He default expression.
* GoodIsNotNice: Besides his personal strength and that of his soldiers, his cavalry charges are also so powerful and successful because he and his men are perfectly willing to trample over their own allies and friends if they falter or are injured, hence having a psychological advantage over their foes.
* HotBlooded: While he isn't an idiot, he enjoys an entirely straightforward approach and battling his foes head on without tactics, in contrast to Makou who enjoys using tricks and feints.
* GeniusBruiser: Initially appears to be DumbMuscle due to his preference for straightforward charges, but as the battle progresses he proves a very able and flexible tactician as well who simply ''prefers'' a head-on approach.
* NumberTwo: Ousen's second in command and placed in charge of the right wing.
* PerpetualFrowner: He has never been seen to smile once.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: An objective, reasonable man who calmly hears out Ouhon's immature complaints about his role in the right wing, explains to him that he is not being given any sort of special treatment or disrespect and that their opponents are far too strong to trifle with. Kanjou notes his carefully chosen words to make Ousen understand his family issues are not a factor. When Ouhon proves critical to winning the second day, he alows him to join the main strategy table.
* ScarsAreForever: Has one across his mouth that is almost a GlasgowGrin, only it makes his frown even more pronounced.
* WorthyOpponent: Is highly respected by both Bananji and Chougaryuu for his abilities and decision making.

[[folder:General Makou]]
Widely considered Ousen's left-hand man, Makou is placed in charge of the left wing during the Battle of Shukai Plains.
-----
* BadassArmy: His men are noted to be extremely strong and skilled, easily dominating Kisui's Rigan cavalry.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Makes a brief appearance during the Fire Dragons arc at Ousen's strategy table.
* EyesAlwaysShut: At most, he opens them slightly into slits. [[spoiler: This led to many a joke at his expense when he seemingly failed to spot Riboku until he was right next to him.]]
* AFatherToHisMen: His main positive trait. His men love and respect him and it is implied to be reciprocal, with him encouraging a hands-n approach between superiors and rank-and-file. [[spoiler: After his death, they break down into grief and are unable to relaunch a counterattack until Mouten regroups them. When Mouten tricks them into believing he still lives, they regroup in a tremendous fervor which shocks Kisui and Batei.]]
* PetTheDog: While he was generally portrayed as something of an arrogant prick, Makou was a great leader and AFatherToHisMen
* [[OffWithHisHead Off With His Head!]]: [[spoiler: Decapitated by Riboku when he is ambushed by his roaming unit.]]
* MiracleRally: At their DarkestHour, Makou would rally and encourage his men into a comeback with three words- "Stand and fight." [[spoiler: This comes in handy ''after his death'' when Mouten uses it to make his men believe he still lives.]]
* SmugSnake: An arrogant commander who greatly underestimates Mouten and believes that he will never be felled by 'Zhao thrash'. [[spoiler: Guess what happens...]]]
* TemptingFate: Claims his Makou Army would never be felled by Zhao thrash and that regardless of what happens, he would be the "Star of the Left Battlefield". [[spoiler: He becomes the first of the major players in the war to die, even before any of the Zhao leaders. And his death and screw-up nearly leads to the defeat of the entire Qin army!]]
* TrainingFromHell: Batei wonders what sort of ridiculous training Makou put his men through to make them so strong.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler: Is killed by Riboku before he can show the full extent of his ability.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Akakin]]
A highly talented commander in Akou's army, Akakin's attitude prevents him from getting promoted, hence leading to him being considered a greatly wasted potential.
* AlmightyJanitor: Is commander of less than a hundred men, but is implied to be one of the most talented commanders under Akou's wing.
* CoolHelmet: Despite his low rank, he wears a detailed custom helmet to denote his narrative importance.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: His manic personality and viewpoints means noone in the Ousen army likes him, which leads him to staying at a low rank.
* SlasherSmile: His default expression.
* SpannerInTheWorks: Chougaryuu nearly manages to counter Ouhon's gambit to destroy Bananji's army by sending a detachment into Bananji's flanks as well, but Akakin's independent action to stay behind to hold off the detachments means that Ouhon's success becomes inevitable.
