The same evil light was far away in Bingzhou. A valley in the western part of Shanxi Province also began to glow at the same time. The only difference was that it was green. It was a green evil light, and it was also emitted by a weapon.
It was a saber, and its length was about the same as that of the Xuan Tian Martial Leopard. The Chiyou head-shaped saber had two warts on its forehead, and under the head was a dragon-shaped long hilt that was about five feet long. This weapon looked like one of the legendary ten heavenly weapons of the Devil Race-- According to Lu Bu, the person wielding the saber was definitely a peerless expert since he could unleash the Green Chiyou Dragon to such an extent. If such an expert attacked the world, it would become everyone's nightmare.
His face was as red as a jujube, his eyebrows were like silkworms, and his eyes were like a red phoenix. There was a trace of regret in his eyes. There was a person lying in front of him, the person who taught him the "Alluring One Style". He suddenly raised his head and did not move for a long time. There was a nostalgic expression on his face, as if he was recalling some warmth from the past.
"Master, what is this? Why is it exactly the same as the thing on your face?”
He was only fifteen years old and had been quiet since he was young. Other than his master who taught him martial arts, he had no other person to talk to. Today, he looked at this person who was like a teacher and father and asked with a green mask in his hand.
"This is the representative of our 'Azurefiend'. We are born because of this, and we will die because of this.”
Her master replied gently.
"Disciple doesn't understand! However... I really want to play with that saber.”
He innocently pointed at a long saber that looked like a green face and fangs in the box.
"Haha! One day, you will. One day, not only will you be able to hold that blade, but you will also need to wear the Azurefiend. One day, you will!!”
"Disciple still doesn't understand?"
"Haha! This was fate…Child, it's up to you to understand…"
In the blink of an eye, he returned to reality and looked at him lying on the ground, dead. They all came from a mysterious organization. He was already in his twenties, but he still didn't know what this organization was. The only thing he knew was that his master, who was lying on the ground, was also one of them, and his master had the name "Azure Demon".
To put it this way," Azure Demon " was not a name, but a code name, a code name for a killer. When the person with the code name died, he would be replaced by another person. That person might be a stranger, a relative or a disciple of the previous person. In short, from today on," Azure Demon " would be inherited by him.
He would probably take revenge first, right? However, he did not have such plans because his master had died in his hands under the "City Toppling One Move".
He was a little afraid because this was the first time he had seen his master's true face, and it was after his death. He squatted down and gently pulled away the "Azure Demon" on his face. He was surprised to find that there seemed to be a book on his face. He looked at Azurefiend and wiped the blood off his face. There were several words on it: "Guan Yu, also known as Yunchang."
"So Master's surname is Guan!"
He shifted his gaze to the Azurefiend. After a while, he slowly stood up, placed the Azure Demon on Guan Yu's body, and took a few steps forward. Suddenly, he turned around and swung his saber at the Green Dragon. The blade was turned into ashes, and Guan Yu and the Green Demon disappeared from this world.
"From now on!" The Azure Demon was dead. There was no more Azure Demon in the world. There was only one-Guan Yunzhang!”He, who called himself Guan Yunzhang, jumped onto the top of the valley. The sun enveloped his body. He held the Green Chiyou Dragon in his left hand behind his back, looking like a god.
The wind came, carrying gravel and sand, but he disappeared like air. What was left behind was an unknown liquid that fell from the air to the bottom of the valley.
After that, there was an expert in Jianghu. There was an expert who was extremely loyal. It was unknown how much waves this expert would cause in Jianghu.
"Reduce the number of soldiers and increase the number of stoves? Miss Hua, can you be clearer?”
"Yes... However, did Marshal Lu understand what it meant to reduce troops and add fuel?”
Lu Zhi's attainments in the art of war were not weak, so how could he not know how to reduce the number of soldiers and add fuel to the fire? He exhaled and said,"This is a scheme that the great strategist Sun Bin used to invite his enemy Pang Juan into the trap. The goal is to lure the enemy into thinking that our strength is gradually increasing, so that the other party won't act rashly and can also delay the battle. but... What Miss Hua said didn't seem to have much to do with whether Zhang Jiao was in the enemy's formation or not.”
"Marshal Lu, what do you think of Zhang Jiao?”
"Ahem…He could be considered a master of military strategy. Although he should not be praised like this, his way of using troops was no less than Lu Zhi's. Lu Zhi had to admit that.”
Hua Juan nodded and thought to himself that this Zhang Jiao's power had never been recorded in history. However, this did not affect his judgment of Zhang Jiao. Seeing that Lu Zhi was eagerly waiting for his answer, Hua Juan replied,""Although Zhang Jiao is the leader of the Yellow Turban rebels and is very familiar with the art of war, I don't know whether his personality and style are gloomy and cunning or whether he wins people with virtue. Marshal Lu, you must tell him objectively and not have any subjective opinions!”
Hearing Hua Juan's reminder, Lu Zhi really thought for a moment before replying,""I've studied Zhang Jiao's character and style in private. He's open and aboveboard. He never does anything wrong. He doesn't use any tricks in every fight. He's a real gentleman!”
"As the marshal said, Zhang Jiao is a respectable opponent!" Bai Qing looked at Lu Zhi.”
"You can say that! However, I still don't know why this has anything to do with whether Zhang Jiao is in the formation or not.”
Hua Juan took a sip of the tea prepared by the soldiers and said,""Since they are honorable and upright opponents, Marshal Lu believes that Zhang Jiao will hand over such an important battle to his two right-hand men at the critical moment. Or…Because he was not in the array, he had no choice but to hand this battle over to the two left and right hands?”
Lu Zhi listened attentively to Hua Juan's words and paused for a moment before replying,""Although Zhang Jiao is a respectable opponent, but…This could also be one of his plans!”
Hua Juan knew that Lu Zhi was cautious, so she analyzed it again and told Lu Zhi,""Marshal Lu's consideration is correct, but... Forgive Hua Juan for speaking bluntly, but is Marshal Lu's plan better than Zhang Liang's? If he didn't, why would Zhang Jiao, a master of military strategy, use tricks to trick him when he had more than twice the overwhelming force of the enemy?... Therefore, Hua Juan was certain that Zhang Jiao was not in the formation. It was because there was no military expert like Zhang Jiao in the formation that Ma Yuanyi and Cheng Yuanzhi, who had twice the strength of the Han army, did not dare to act rashly. That's why Cheng Yuanzhi didn't hesitate to lead his assassins to sneak into the Han camp to ambush you, Marshal!”
Hua Juan once again explained clearly. Finally, Lu Zhi slapped his thigh hard after listening and said,"Miss Hua is right. That Zhang Jiao is definitely not in this array for some unknown reason…Then... Miss Hua, can you tell me more about your plan to reduce the number of soldiers and increase the number of stoves?”
This was the first time Hua Juan felt like she was participating in this game. She smiled and continued,"Since it's a scheme, it's naturally better for fewer people to know about it. If Marshal trusts Hua Juan and hopes that Marshal will do as Hua Juan says, Marshal will naturally understand.”
With Hua Juan saying this, it was obvious that he wanted to intervene in this battle. Bai Qing, who was standing by the side, felt that it was inappropriate but did not say anything. Lu Zhi nodded vigorously and said,"I understand. From now on, I will give Miss Hua some authority to command the Han army. However, I hope that Miss Hua will let me know and pass on any orders…After all, the commander of this battle is still me. If there are any changes in the front line, it may cause irreparable results.”
Lu Zhi's answer was equivalent to indirectly accepting Hua Juan's position in the Han army. As Lu Zhi had said, he was able to provide advice on his side. Hua Juan nodded and accepted Lu Zhi's explanation. She replied,""Then please give the order to evacuate this place immediately!”
"What?!"
