Chapter 553: Chapter 34 Sword Madman’s Visiting Card Enters the Martial World_2

"There is just one thing, please remember it."

"Once you arrive in the Jiangnan Eighteen States, you must immediately go into hiding, you must not claim any titles, restrain your edge, hold back your own renown among the world, but on the battlefields of the Jiangnan Eighteen States, you should act as you please."

"While the world remains unchanged, and your wings are not yet full, to crow proudly is an ominous sign."

"Now, I have discerned a critical moment for a great upheaval in the world [when the Emperor of Ying is old and collapses], this will be the time for heroes to exert themselves."

"Regarding your own safety, you can trust Shaking Light, her strategies differ from mine."

"Astrology, benevolence, recuperation, you may heed such matters."

"I have only a few words to say, I regret not being by the lord’s side, I only wish the lord would muster weapons, march courageously forward, and conquer all directions."

Breaking Army picked up his pen, thought for a moment, deliberately took the tea, and sprinkled a few drops on the letter.

It looked as though he had been unable to restrain himself from crying while writing the letter.

His nature was to be proud and self-respecting, with very high expectations; making him cry was harder than making him die, but faking it in this respect was still possible. Ah, to think of the lord seeing my response with tear stains, he would surely be moved by my state of mind.

Breaking Army nodded with satisfaction.

He slightly lifted his chin.

Humph humph, Shaking Light, what do you have to compete with me!

......

At the gateway of the Yin Yang Reincarnation Sect, the Divine Weapon [Yin Yang Reincarnation Ruler] floated in the air, emitting faint sounds. Inside Li Guanyi, the bronze tripod howled nonstop, he slowly stretched out his hand, touching this Divine Weapon.

The Divine Weapon emitted a Qi Mechanism of Yin and Yang flowing.

But the howl of the bronze tripod suddenly intensified.

Like the King of Central Earth, valiant and furious, thus the proud warriors and fearless generals all complied.

[Yin Yang Reincarnation Ruler] suddenly calmed down.

This Divine Weapon was staunchly suppressed, held in the hands of Li Guanyi, the enemy who had eradicated the sect’s heritage of the Reincarnation Sect. Li Guanyi carefully examined this Divine Weapon, his Inner Qi surged into it, understanding its characteristics.

This was a Divine Weapon with both offensive and defensive capabilities.

Yin Yang reincarnation, it could be used to kill as well as protect, possessing all sorts of mystique, even stimulating the arts of constant transformation, it could make plants grow rapidly, accelerate healing of wounds, and as a weapon of slaughter, it could cause blood to flow ceaselessly from a wound, imparting poison to water flows.

Li Guanyi exclaimed, "This thing, if used well, can indeed save countless lives, but if not, it can also kill countless."

Regrettably, Li Guanyi tried, but this Divine Weapon was not compatible with his Dharma Form.

The Red Dragon seemed to have chosen the Chi Xiao Sword.

The White Tiger Dharma Form corresponded with the Fierce Tiger Sky Shouting Halberd and the Breaking Cloud Sky-shattering Bow.

The other Dharma Forms, the Green Bird, the Mystic Turtle, all had a certain degree of suitability, yet they were not a perfect match.

The Qilin was completely unresponsive in its lazy indifference.

But even so, this was still a very formidable item, Li Guanyi put it away, and proceeded with his duties, while Yuwen Tianxian came again to discuss with Li Guanyi. His expression was serene, almost devoid of ripples, only saying:

"There are too few people."

Li Guanyi was stunned, "Ah?"

"Are there still too few such people?"

Yuwen Tianxian said solemnly, "I mean capable people."

This famous general said, "A commander must have confidants, spies, and claws."

"Without confidants, it’s like walking in the night without knowing where to place one’s hands and feet; without spies, it’s like living blindly, unaware of movements; without claws, it is like a starving person eating poisonous food, all will surely die."

"Thus, a good commander must have knowledgeable and wise individuals as confidants, thorough and cautious individuals as spies, and brave and skilled fighters as claws. Currently, among your subordinates, there are not many who meet these requirements. Like Ling Pingyang, Changsun Wuchou, they are such talents, but only having them is not enough."

"If you were to command ten thousand men, do you know what the arrangement would be like?"

Yuwen Tianxian stretched out a finger, simply picked up a chopstick from the table, and placed it down, saying, "Firstly, you as the Main General, leading the Central Army of four thousand men, out of which two thousand eight hundred are warriors, with standards like your Qilin Army, fifty people per squad, making fifty-six squads."

"Then, the Right and Left Captains each with one army, each army of two thousand eight hundred men."

"Of these, each will have one thousand nine hundred warriors, making a total of seventy-eight squads."

"Then, there must also be both left and right flanks, each with two armies, each consisting of twenty-six hundred people, each selecting one thousand eight hundred fifty warriors, totaling one hundred forty-eight squads."

"Thus, there are only fourteen thousand men, a total of two hundred eighty-two squads in combat, with the remaining six thousand guarding the supplies. Do you know how many junior officers, logistics officers, and rear service personnel every squad needs, the squad leader, the squad captain, the banner team?"

"With fifty people per a combat squad, if including logistic support with fourteen thousand people in the battalion, you would need to control two hundred eighty-two combat units on the battlefield, executing combat formations, can you do that?"

Li Guanyi’s scalp tingled.

Being pointedly criticized by this famous general of the age, he then understood the difficulty of leading an army.

But he had already embarked on this path.

The youth said, "Isn’t the general here too?"

Yuwen Tianxian was somewhat caught off guard, he frowned and replied:

"A mere me, merely a defeated general."

Li Guanyi stood up, stepped forward, Yuwen Tianxian saw the nearly glowing eyes of the youth, then grabbed his own hand, earnestly saying:

"Guan Yi is dull, please teach me, General!"

Yuwen Tianxian looked at Li Guanyi, he felt as if his fists were clenched, but powerless to strike, finally he simply said: "...If you continue like this, disregarding the evil of human hearts, there will come a day when you will suffer the consequences."
