Chapter 412

Looking over Lián Páo's life, he had courage and strategy, emphasized effectiveness in battle, never engaged in flashy but empty things to boast of military merit, and as a person he could take up and let go, possessing the bearing of a great general.

Although Zhao lost the Battle of Changping, Lián Páo's prestige has endured through the ages.

Sima Qian evaluated Lián Páo: "Lián Páo is a fine general of Zhao!"

During the Tang dynasty, Lián Páo was listed among more than sixty War Gods and was invited into the Martial Temple.

During the Song dynasty, Lián Páo was included among the seventy-two War Gods to receive worship.

Lián Páo, besides being brave and good at fighting, resourceful and full of schemes, was also a straightforward, outspoken person who did not engage in politics.

In his later years, after being relieved of his military post, he went far away to a foreign land and died in depression.

Such an outcome is inseparable from his character.

Facing the Zhao Huiwen King who was about to contend with the strong Qin, Lián Páo directly told him: "If something happens to you, the crown prince can ascend," thereby greatly offending the Huiwen King.

In dealing with the civil official Lin Xiangru, Lián Páo repeatedly tried to trip him up; if it weren't for Lin Xiangru prioritizing the bigger picture and not quarreling with Lián Páo, the consequence of a rift between general and minister would likely overturn expectations.

After being dismissed by King Zhao Xiaoxiang, instead of waiting quietly for an opportunity, he, at the slightest disagreement, defected and attacked Le Sheng, who had taken his place, resulting in Zhao losing two famous generals at once.

If Lián Páo weren't so willful, and conducted himself and his affairs more cautiously and moderately, his later years would not have been so bleak.

And perhaps Zhao's history would also have been thoroughly rewritten.

"Ding! Summoning completed, please host eliminate two people; the system will randomly summon one for the host from the remaining three."

"System, eliminate Hulü Guang; as for the remaining four."

Looking at the list of five names given by the system, Su Ye first eliminated Hulü Guang.

Who let it be that among these five, his stats are the worst.

The stats of the other four are all above his.

"As for the rest, eliminate General Feng Yi, the Tree General!"

"Draw from the remaining three!"

Of the remaining four, Su Ye pondered for a long time, but ultimately still decided to eliminate Feng Yi.

Needless to say, the strongest among them is Lián Páo; as one of the Four Great Generals of the Warring States, he can stand shoulder to shoulder with fierce figures like Bai Qi and Li Mu.

The Commander-in-Chief stat also reached 100 points, the threshold of Saint Rank Commander-in-Chief, and in the future there is no lack of opportunity to advance further.

As for the remaining two, Chang Yuchun needs no explanation; when he appears, his son Chang Mao with the yin-yang eyes will surely come along as well.

This is also a fierce figure with potential to reach War God level; drawing Chang Yuchun also brings along Chang Mao, who might also reach War God level.

It is definitely a sure profit, no loss.

As for why Li Shi'yuan, the weakest, was also kept.

That can only be because Su Ye wanted to take a gamble.

If, by chance, when he appears he brings along everyone from the Thirteen Guardians combination.

Then that general, Li Cunxiao, would be the one near the water who gets the moon first.

If he comes out together with Li Shi'yuan, then Su Ye would definitely have the best chance.

One could say this directly lets the 110 summoning points of this summon ascend to heaven in a single step!

On the contrary, regarding Feng Yi, Su Ye actually does not think he could bring out all twenty-eight generals of the Yuntai.

Moreover, among the Yuntai Twenty-Eight Generals, only a few are truly high-quality.

"Ding! Eliminate Hulü Guang and Feng Yi; the system will summon for the host from the remaining Li Shi'yuan, Chang Yuchun, and Lián Páo, please wait."

"Ding! Congratulations host for obtaining the Warring States Four Great Generals Lián Páo, Commander-in-Chief 100, Martial Power 96, Intelligence 89, Politics 75."

"Accompanying figures: Zhao Yu, Zhao She, Zhao Kuo, Zhao Sheng, Zhao He, Zhao Jianzi, Fei Yi, Mao Sui, Lin Xiangru, Wei Gan, Wei Yu, Pōudīng, Máomǎo, Duān Qiānzi, Tiándì (King Qi Min), Tián Pìjiāng, Tián Shàn, Tián Jì, Tián Wén, Féng Qiǎn, Chúnyú Hūm, Jì Zězǐ, Xióng Shāngchén, Xióng Rén, Xióng Xīn, Xióng Wéi (King Chu Ling), Xióng Qìjí (King Chu Ping), Sòng Yì, Qū Xiá, Dǒu Bóbǐ, Dèng Màn, Fēng Húzǐ, Wǔ Jǔ, Sū Cóng, Shēn Shūshí, Zǐ Fǎn,"

Embedded as the host's identity before his first departure to Cangzhou, one of the veteran generals taken from the Nine Heavens Army, later discovered by the host for his commander-in-chief ability, carried at his side for readiness, now located in the host's army, the host can go find him personally.

Well. This is messed up.

Su Ye looked at Lián Páo bringing out so many people, and for a moment he felt a bit clumsy.

He didn't know whether to be startled or happy.

Summoning Lián Páo, the highest-quality commander-in-chief, certainly made Su Ye's mood much more pleasant.

That Lián Páo's accompanying figures are even more explosive.

One of the Eight Famous Generals of the Six Eastern States, Zhao She, bearing the title Marquess Ma Fu, devoted himself to reforms for ten years and in one battle shattered the seventy-year undefeated myth of Qin's elite troops.

The Qi state famous general Tian Ji, with discerning eye for talent and brilliant military achievements.

In the famous Battle of Ma Ling, he successfully applied the wondrous tactic of 'besiege Wei to rescue Zhao', defeating the powerful Wei army with fewer forces.

Also there are the various rulers of the states during the Warring States period.

Su Ye looked, dazed repeatedly.

However, Su Ye didn't pay too much attention, for his future opponents are big shots like Zheng Ge.

This group of states swept into dust by Qin, at their peak perhaps could still make Su Ye look at them differently.

Now they have been implanted onto the Tianwu Continent, but not everyone is like Zheng Ge, starting as a ruler of a state.

To threaten Su Ye, wait until they become rulers of a state just like Zheng Ge.

Then, when they restore their national strength to its peak, come and clash with Su Ye.

Frankly speaking, their current threat is less than that of state founders like Zheng Ge, Liu Bang, and Yang Jian.

They are still insufficient to exert any pressure on Su Ye.

And just as Su Ye had just finished summoning Lián Páo.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Yellow Turban Army, as Qiao Shefei and Ouyang Jing were conversing, on the distant horizon dust rose and iron hooves thundered.

These units, elite forces jointly organized by the various behind-the-scenes powers of the Taiping Sect, accompanied by the elite Yellow Turban Army meticulously hidden by those behind-the-scenes black hands, are mightily advancing toward the previous battlefield.

This allied force, gathering the elites of the major powers of the Taiping Sect, they ride warhorses, wear iron armor, wield sharp blades, and their eyes reveal a chilling killing intent.

Along the way, they encountered many defeated Yellow Turban troops from the front lines.

These Yellow Turban Army soldiers, defeated in the previous battle and low in morale, saw the arrival of this elite unit and the fire of hope reignited in their eyes.

They flocked to join this powerful Allied Army, hoping to rely on its strength to revive the Yellow Turban Army's former glory.

As the Allied Army advanced, more and more defeated Yellow Turban Army soldiers joined their ranks, causing the Allied Army's strength to grow ever greater.

The sound of footsteps shook the earth, and every inch of land trodden by the iron cavalry seemed to tremble.

During the Allied Army's advance, they continually integrated the newly arrived soldiers, adjusting tactics and strategy.

As the Allied Army drew near, the previous battlefield gradually became lively.
