Ou Sen versus Ri Boku : who is the best grand general in Kingdom?
The Ou Sen vs. Ri Boku debate has been going on for a long time in the fandom ever since they had their battle. When the two first clashed in the manga, we saw that Ou Sen won that battle.
But it wasn't an equal battle for both of them, due to some issues with Zhao. Since then, we've been wondering who will ultimately win in a battle between Ou Sen and Ri Boku.
If it is a 1v1 duel, Ou Sen will be the winner. But, if it's a battle based on clever tactics and Ri Boku has a larger army, he could possibly end up winning Ou Sen.
However, we will primarily look at their prowess as generals. For a more detailed comparison between the two, make sure to read his article until the end.

Ou Sen versus Ri Boku: who is the better great general?
As for the battle we have at hand, who is the better grand general between Ou Sen and Ri Boku? Ou Sen has a slight advantage, and he will most likely end up defeating Ri Boku.
The two had already faced each other once, and we saw Ou Sen finish superior to Ri Boku. And, based on what we saw between the two of them in this battle, we can confidently say that Ou Sen is a better Great General.
Ou Sen only chooses which battle he wins, and if he chooses to face Ri Boku, then he will surely end up being the victor. He also came up with a new anti-locust strategy from scratch, which even surprised Ri Boku.
Ri Boku is also one of the strongest Grand Generals, but it is a fact that he already lost to Ou Sen. And we also know that there are many other areas in which Ou Sen dominates as well.
1) Brute force based
This should be an easy victory for Ou Sen. Just look at him to understand why he is one of the most feared men in Qin. He can also kill multiple soldiers with ease, while simply using his brute strength.
Ri Boku also displayed formidable raw strength in his fights, even managing to maintain an advantage over Shin. But he is far from Ou Sen, who has higher raw strength than him.
2) Strategy-based
This should be a win for Ri Boku. Ri Boku had surpassed many people like Shou Hei Kun, Haku Ki, and even Ou Sen in this aspect. He also has one of the highest intelligences in the series, further enhancing his strategic skills.
On the other hand, we also know that Ou Sen is a formidable opponent with his strategies. Despite his small disadvantage in intelligence, he still managed to surprise Ri Boku and win their war, thanks to his strategy.
3) Based on military formations
It should be a tie for both. Even if he controls a rare military formation, it might not go against Ou Sen's original tactics. Ou Sen will be able to decipher the tactics and weaknesses of any army, thanks to his analytical skills.
The same goes for Riboku. He was able to read the weakness and understand the tactics of Ou Sen's forward defense formation, in their fight, using his Origin tactic.
4) Based on experience
This is a victory for Ri Boku, Ri Boku has very extensive experience in battles and uses his experience to further strengthen his own military formations, strategies and tactics.
Although Ou Sen is older than Ri Boku, he does not have much experience compared to Ri Boku. This is only because Ou Sen picks his battles so that he ultimately wins.
5) Based on army strength
This should be an easy victory for Ou Sen. We have seen the capabilities of his army and the Qin army many times. He also has many loyal vassals and soldiers, willing to die for him.
Even if the share of vassalage is the same for Ri Boku as well, he remains below the strength of his soldiers. It is a known fact that Qin has much better troops, due to Haku Ki's massacre of Zhao's troops.
6) Based on overall capacity
Based on his overall abilities, we can say that Ou Sen will be a bit better than Ri Boku. In addition to having disadvantages, he still managed to win against Ri Boku during their indirect confrontation.
So with this, we will be able to say that in an Ou Sen vs Ri Boku duel, we can see Ou Sen end up winning over the other. It can also be said that Ou Sen has an advantage when it comes to a 1v1 fight.
Ou Sen is also not losing ground in terms of military strategy and tactics. He will likely be able to fight on par with Riboku's special knowledge of military formations and tactics.
