Koohii Story 1 This is mostly used in the word 循環, "circulation" (of buses through their routes, of blood, etc). So I think of a column of little Roman soldiers with their shields marching sequentially through the veins of a person, as an anthropomorphization of the immune system.
Koohii Story 2 A column of shielded soldiers advancing sequentially to avoid revealing the size of their army (Think "Sandpeople always ride single file to hide their numbers" from Star Wars).
