Qi Jiguang (戚繼光; 1528 – 1588), courtesy name Yuanjing, art names Nantang and Mengzhu, posthumous name Wuyi, was a Chinese military general and writer of the Ming dynasty, best remembered for his defense of the country's coastal regions against Japanese pirates and reinforcement of the Great Wall of China. He also authored the military manuals Jixiao Xinshu and Lianbing Shiji or Record of Military Training (練兵實紀), which he based on his experience as a martial educator and defensive planner in the Ming military.[1]
In 1725, Qi Jiguang was mentioned by the Chinese Assassin Liu Qing during his duel against the Japanese Templar and samurai Shimazu Saito, when he recalled the late general's warning about the long swords wielded by Japanese warriors.[2]
