Japanese military academy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kōbusho (講武所, lit. 'military training center') was a Japanese military academy. It was set up in the final decades of the Edo period as part of Japan's defensive preparations in response to Western military coercion, and taught Western-style battlefield tactics such as artillery use alongside traditional Japanese martial arts.[1][2] The academy was located in Misakichō, Tokyo.[3] It closed in 1866, after only ten years in operation.[1]
