Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

"If one is truly ordained by Heaven and destined for eternal life, then what was the cause of the Dong Zhuo Rebellion or the Yellow Turban Rebellion? It is simply a matter of taking from the people and returning to the people."

Liu Bei was deeply moved. No one had ever explained these things to him so simply and concisely before, not even Lu Zhi at that time.

Hmm~ If Lu Zhi were to teach his students the art of ruling, it would truly mean that Emperor Ling's sword had lost its edge!

Even if it were actually said, it would be extremely obscure, so it's reasonable that Liu Bei didn't understand it.

"Zichuan!" Liu Bei gritted his teeth and said, "How do we take Taishan County? How do we become stronger? How do we quell the chaos of this world!"

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Mount Tai is a good place with plenty of troops. As long as you can persuade Tao Gongzu to lend us grain, taking Mount Tai and even taking Qingzhou to devour it will be a piece of cake. Most importantly, apart from the places that were destroyed by the Yellow Turbans, the powerful families and clans in other places are not places that you, Lord Xuande, can take over."

"We don't have to borrow grain. The Marquis of Huaiyin's military treatise is hidden in the East Pavilion. Selling that should provide enough grain," Jiang Shu interjected.

"The Art of War by the Marquis of Huaiyin?" Liu Bei exclaimed in surprise.

There was no way around it; the name of the Marquis of Huaiyin was too grand. He was the Marquis of Huaiyin, who was invincible in every battle and could conquer any city!

"Are we really going to sell this?" Liu Bei asked hesitantly.

"If we can avoid borrowing grain, that would be the best outcome," Chen Xi nodded.

"As for the question of the Marquis of Huaiyin's military strategy!" Chen Xi revealed a confident smile.

"Who can understand this? That's the military strategy of the Marquis of Huaiyin!" Chen Xi didn't say the rest of Qi Xuguang's words.

"Even if you understand it, so what? Can the Art of War of the Marquis of Huaiyin produce another Marquis of Huaiyin?"

Jiang Shu confidently declared, "Even if it's the next Marquis of Huaiyin, we'll only know after we've fought him!"

Military God's Blessing: Rapid Troop Training (Rapid Forging!)

With this military genius's blessing, Jiang Shu was confident that he would never lose!

Then Chen Xi talked about the necessity and importance of aristocratic families.

The next day, Yuan Shao dealt with the allied forces, revealing his true colors as a model of virtue and displaying his domineering nature.

Yuan Shu stopped hindering them, and Yuan Shao successfully made Sun Jian extremely grateful.

On the other hand, Dong Zhuo still retained some of the fierce spirit of the Xiliang warriors, which confused Li Ru's judgment.

Lu Bu is here!

Lu Bu, standing guard at Hulao Pass, looked at the eighteen warlords opposite him and sneered.

He suddenly had an idea: wouldn't it be interesting if he shot them with an arrow right now?

Just do it!

Lu Bu used his inner energy to create a bow and arrow, turned around, and shot the arrow.

The terrifying golden-red arrows tore through the air with a violent gale.

Without even looking, Lü Bu fired four more arrows. After repeating this four times, Lü Bu stopped firing!

Zhao Yun keenly sensed the arrow that Lü Bu had shot out, and he decisively took action, meeting Lü Bu's arrow with his own and shooting it away!

The arrow, as thin as a silk thread, made the feudal lords realize that this refined man was also a master!

The feudal lords were all amazed, wondering where Liu Bei had gotten so many skilled warriors!

"Did you succeed?" Zhang Fei asked.

Zhao Yun shook his head and said, "At most, he'll just be a little embarrassed."

Just as Zhao Yun said, Lu Bu really didn't expect anyone to be able to counterattack so quickly, but his instincts as a super master still allowed him to break through Zhao Yun's counterattack!

Zhang Fei fell silent. If it were him, Zhao Yun's attack would have been very troublesome, but Lu Bu was only slightly embarrassed!

Lu Bu jumped down from Hulao Pass, which is not surprising as anyone could do it by releasing their internal energy. What is terrifying is that the ground did not tremble at all after he jumped down!

The generals on the side of the feudal lords all jumped up, which meant that Lü Bu's control over his own power had reached its peak.

With a long roar, a line of fire rushed in. Lü Bu mounted his horse, holding his halberd, and his terrifying aura swept outwards from him, shaking the surrounding areas!

"Who dares to fight!" Wang Kuang shouted.

A man leaped out on horseback; it was Fang Yue, a famous general from Hanoi. Lü Bu then unleashed a golden blade of energy upon him, and Fang Yue and his horse vanished into thin air.

Then he went to Zhang Yang's Mu Shun and launched a preemptive attack. With three strikes, Lu Bu was cleaved in two, horse and all, without Lu Bu even moving!

Then there was Wu Anguo, who possessed superhuman strength and could wield a 500-pound hammer without using any breathing techniques. Wu Anguo went straight in, and the terrifying hammer seemed capable of withstanding any attack.

Each blow was heavier than the last, and even with Lu Bu's martial arts skills, it seemed there was no way to use them; he could only be hit by the hammer repeatedly!

Twenty rounds have passed, and Wu Anguo seems to be using Lü Bu as a piece of iron to forge him.

"That's enough!"

at last!

Lu Bu unleashed a furious slash, his mastery of heavy swordsmanship reaching its pinnacle, instantly throwing Wu Anguo off balance.

Then the halberd drew an arc, about to finish off Wu Anguo.

Zhao Yun decisively shot an arrow, saving Wu Anguo!

Then, looking at the puzzled crowd, Zhao Yun explained the heavy sword technique. Of course, he knew how shameless these two things could be used.

Zhang Fei gritted his teeth; he knew, of course, how shameless those two techniques were to use.

Zhang Fei's inner energy surged, forming a dark black armor with ancient patterns on it!

"I am Zhang Yide of Yan!" Zhang Fei roared, holding his eighteen-foot spear, and charged forward on horseback, raising his hand to stab!

Lu Bu casually blocked the attack, while simultaneously testing Zhang Fei's strength.

He was very strong, almost as strong as Wu Anguo, but his weapons were not as heavy and his speed was not as fast!

Zhang Fei roared as he attacked. His martial arts were always about advancing without retreating. If he retreated, he would only become weaker, and might even be killed by someone with internal energy forming a protective barrier.

Zhang Fei's spear transformed into a black dragon, piercing towards Lü Bu.

In ten moves, Zhang Fei suppressed Lü Bu.

After twenty moves, Lü Bu had the upper hand over Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei's aura was constantly growing, and his strength was constantly increasing, but it was useless!

So what if you've risen in rank? I, Lü Bu, Lü Fengxian, am still the best in the world. Even if you rise in rank, I can still kill you!

The golden light emanating from Lü Bu gradually suppressed the black light emanating from Zhang Fei, a terrifying power that seemed to suppress everything in the world.

Finally, Guan Yu made his move. He concentrated all his energy and spirit, and unleashed a terrifying force that cleaved a mountain in two!

With Zhang Fei holding him back this time, Lü Bu had no chance to interrupt Guan Yu's charge-up attack, and Guan Yu's third strike head-on hit Lü Bu.

boom!

Even the Hulao Pass city wall behind them was cleaved open, leaving a huge mark!

Tick!

Blood dripped from Lü Bu's body.

"Hahahaha!" Lu Bu burst into wild laughter.

"Indeed, you are the first to bleed me since I mastered my martial arts. Since you were able to injure me, I will show you my true strength!" Lu Bu's aura continued to rise!
