Soon after the Battle of Sulong, Yang Biao, who had recovered from his injuries, led the rest and replenishment of the headquarters back to the grassland.

You lead the team to meet him when you are sick.

See you again on the shores of Lake Sulong.

Yang Biao dismounted and bowed his head. He already knew that you personally led the team to rescue him when he was wounded, and then used up your own precious life-saving medicine for him.

This is the third time you have rescued Yang Biao.

Yang Biao was very moved.

Yang Biao came back this time and brought you Liu Shen's new reward.

It was a brand new Damascus steel saber. Compared to the saber you've used before, it's sharper, thinner and tougher, and the blade will roar when you flick it. In sunlight, the knife glows like a jewel, reflecting so strongly that enemies on the opposite side cannot look at it.

You took over this priceless saber, and you knew in your heart that this was Liu Shen's sympathy that your body is not as good as before, and your arm strength and endurance are not as good as before, so that you can use it more handily on the battlefield.

You looked in the direction of Yunzhou, thanked Liu Shen, and accepted his heavy gift.

Yang Biao then begged you to give him the saber he had used before.

Yang Biao said that with a knife in hand, he will always remember that you have repeatedly rescued him, will remember your original intention of creating the New Han Army, and will always remind himself that in the future, he will lead the Northern Han New Army to carry forward your ambitions, so that the Northern Han New Army will always be the guardian of peace in the world.

You are very pleased with Yang Biao's realization.

You gave Yang Biao the saber you used before.

Later, Yang Biao did always remember your repeated rescue of him. However, there are other things that he does not always keep in mind.

He inherited your military style and military line, however, he did not understand and inherit your army building ideals very well.

Yang Biao continued to use your saber until he lost to Liu Shen, who took the knife from him.

Because it has been a long time since you died, and Yang Biao has also used this knife for a long time, Liu Shen thinks that this knife is no longer enough to represent you. Therefore he did not open your tomb and bury the sword in that cavity instead of you. Nor did he enshrine the sword in the ancestral hall built by the state for the fallen soldiers.

He gave the knife to the son. He asked his son to hang the knife on the wall of his study and face it day and night.

He told his son to remember you and Yang Biao. At all times. There are always these two types of people in the army. The king must not only know how to cherish a soldier like you, but also know how to control a soldier like Yang Biao.

The king must dare to hand over the sword to a soldier like you, and he must also have the ability to take it back from a soldier like Yang Biao.

Shizi always remembered his father's teachings. In his life, he controlled and used the army, which can be called free and easy, and even won the true biography of Liu Shen.

However, his son did not do so well. Since then, the children and grandchildren who have ascended the throne one after another are even more inferior to one crab. In the end, he finally lost control of the army and let the army carry the knife to the neck.

I watched Liu Shen and his son hang it on the wall of the study, and I felt a lot of emotion in my heart.

Without you, there may not be Liu Shen's dynasty, and there will be no birth of the son.

All of this was earned by the bloody battles you fought with this knife.

This knife is your life, your love, your ideals and pursuits.

Now, my son's eyes are on its blade. My son's hand, held it.

On that day, Liu Shen took his son and hung the knife on the wall of the study.

After Liu Shen left, the prince asked me with a little face: "Queen Mother, this knife has been used by my uncle for many years." Master said that it is the best sword of the brave in the world. ”

"Nope. Shizi. It is first and foremost a benevolent knife. ”

I bent down and said to my young son, "Son, you must remember that a person must first be benevolent, and then he can be brave. ”

I said, "Therefore, the saint does not say that the brave are invincible, but that the benevolent are invincible." ”

I said, "A person who does not have a heart of benevolence for the people of the world, no matter how brave he is, can only become the great enemy of the people of the world in the end, but cannot be invincible in the world." ”

I said, "Therefore, son, you must understand that the foundation of a king's business lies in benevolence, not in courage. ”
