"From my childhood until now, no one has dared to say, [You’re backing me up] ." Li Guanyi sat on his horse, his long spear laid horizontally, bowed slightly, and smiled: "Then I am truly honored." The tension in Li Zhaowen’s heart eased slightly, and Li Guanyi looked towards the eight hundred brave warriors over there, who all seemed quite nervous. Although they had long harbored the intention to die, seeing this was indeed different. Their current state was somewhat similar to Qin Wuyang attempting to assassinate Prince Qin. Even though they were prepared, facing the moment brought fear. Li Guanyi’s hand tapped the armor with his spear, emitting a clear and solemn sound. He looked at these eight hundred Xuanjia Army soldiers, who were suspiciously gazing at him. To be honest, the reputation of [Tian Ge’er], a traveling merchant from the Central Plains, was not good in Xiyi City. They were all curious as to how Li Guanyi dared to come here. Li Guan said: "Do you think we are here to die?" The eight hundred Xuanjia Army said nothing. They knew their purpose was to undermine the morale of the Western Regions allied forces. Not necessarily to die, but it was a perilous task, and Li Guanyi smiled slightly: "I’m just a traveling merchant from the Central Plains, we merchants value our lives; I wouldn’t come here for a losing deal, would I?" "Just like when everyone buys something, would you spend a hundred taels of gold for a bowl of noodles? You wouldn’t, would you? A merchant won’t trade a large coin for a treasure sword that cuts iron like mud, either." "That would be a losing deal." "I’ve come here today for a great victory, gentlemen, watch and see—" Li Guanyi raised his long spear, pointing forward: "The various divisions are different; even though there are a hundred thousand soldiers, they come from seven different tribes. Among these tribes, there are gaps, and they do not have a Great General of a hundred thousand troops." "They are merely a convergence of seven armies of varying sizes." "They cannot collaborate wholly with each other; instead, they are obstructing each other." "Our task is not to defeat ten thousand troops." "It is to make them our soldiers instead, to cause chaos among them. If commanded by an exceptional commander, a hundred thousand troops would be an unbeatable force, sufficient to rank among the top ten generals in the world." "But conversely, if these hundred thousand hold each other back, they’ll just be a mess of mud!" "Our target is to cause the enemy’s camp to explode!" "And to create utter chaos!" A man named Yuchi Xiong sneered and said: "You speak well, but you still want us to risk our lives!" Li Guanyi laughed freely: "Oh? So that’s what you all think, huh? In that case, since I propose this matter, I should personally demonstrate it; wouldn’t this be a fair trade?..." The eight hundred Xuanjia Army was momentarily stunned, and Li Zhaowen was puzzled, only to see Li Guanyi already spurring his warhorse forward, passing by Li Zhaowen. Li Guanyi, wearing mountain-patterned armor and a satin battle robe with Civil and Military Sleeves, held the reins with his left hand and a battle spear in his right, gazing straight ahead, said: "Erlang, prepare to lead the army. After I charge ahead, you all follow closely." "We only have one chance." "When the enemy reacts, the strategy will be too late." Li Zhaowen said: "Mr. Li, you don’t need to do this for me." "If you turn back now, there’s still a chance to retreat." "This charge into battle is bound to be dangerous." She looked at that camp of ten thousand, indeed feeling considerable pressure. Li Guan said: "The matter has come to this, why does Erlang speak further? Though, I have a thought." He pondered for a moment, and to ease Li Zhaowen’s tension, he voluntarily said: "If we succeed and return to the city, Erlang, you said a lady would play the zither." Li Zhaowen replied: "Yes." "I wonder what kind of temperament your brother prefers in a lady?" Li Guanyi laughed freely: "A lady is rather dull; I have no interest." Li Zhaowen raised an eyebrow. Li Guanyi teased: "Rumor has it that the second son of Duke Mansion is outstanding in both literary and martial arts, weaponry, culture, and composing, all of the highest caliber in the world." "If Erlang were to compose a piece for me personally." "I could get thoroughly intoxicated." Li Zhaowen smiled, pausing. Phoenix Eyes measuring the battle general in front, examining up and down, half joking, said: "Oh? Then let’s see, Mr. Li, your skills." The two brushed past each other on their Dragon Horses, Li Guanyi wearing mountain-pattern armor and Li Zhaowen in Ming Guang Armor, with an indescribable sense of aggression and boldness in their prismatic expressions. Li Guanyi smiled and responded: "Good." He looked below, observing the turbulent winds of the Western Regions, observing the mighty currents of the world. He was not a fledgling. Though young, he had already experienced many battlefields. Li Guanyi gripped his long spear and swung it fiercely, the Green Bird Dharma Form soaring, the youthful Lord’s eyes brimming with a bold spirit, one hand pulling the reins, the warhorse leaped suddenly, incredibly charging alone into the formation under the incredulous gaze of the eight hundred Xuanjia. He charged into battle alone! Li Guanyi shouted loudly: "Gentlemen, watch!" "Today, for you all, I will take one of their generals!" "To prove our victory!" A fierce momentum exploded suddenly! A bold decisiveness, with a tyrannical and composed aura. Li Zhaowen’s eyes widened, feeling a ripple in her heart for the first time. Li Guanyi charged into the formation! The eight hundred Xuanjia personally witnessed, unable to react in time, the enemy forces parted like waves under Li Guanyi’s charge as he single-handedly reached a general’s location, toppling personal soldiers, and with just three strikes of his long spear, had already killed one general. Updates are released by NoveI[F]ire.net Sweeping back and forth, as if in an unguarded territory, he slew several generals. The Xuanjia Army’s morale surged greatly. They felt admiration from the heart, considering him a divine being! Li Zhaowen’s eyes lit up, then ordered the army to move. The eight hundred Xuanjia, at an unbelievable moment, at a crucial time in this world— Stepped onto the battlefield!
