I summoned all the famous generals of history in another world.

Chapter 866 The Unique Military Manual, The Exquisite and Elegant Sword

"Ding! Third item: The unique military treatise 'The Art of War' by Sun Tzu - 1000 Summoning Points."

Note: When subordinates study unique military treatises, there is a certain chance to permanently increase their base leadership value. Super-elite and below commanders have a chance to permanently increase their base leadership value by 2-5 points, god-level commanders have a chance to increase it by 1-3 points, and saint-level commanders have a chance to increase it by 1 point (each person can only have one chance to increase their base leadership value!).

Hmm...it's finally out!

Su Ye had been longing for this item that could permanently enhance his attributes for so long!

"The Art of War" is also known as "The Art of War by Sun Tzu", "Sun Tzu", or "Sun Wu's Art of War". It was written by Sun Tzu and is hailed as the "sacred text of military science" and "the first military book in ancient times".

It has a history of 2500 years and has been studied throughout the ages. The book contains about 6,000 characters and is divided into thirteen chapters ("Planning", "Warfare", "Strategic Attack", "Situation", "Power Strike", "Weakness and Strength", "Military Maneuvering", "Nine Variations", "Marching", "Terrain", "Nine Grounds", "Fire Attack", and "Espionage").

"The Art of War" is the earliest extant military treatise, which has always been highly regarded and studied by many. It has played an extremely important guiding role in ancient Chinese military science and warfare practice.

The book comprises thirteen chapters, each beginning with "Sun Tzu said." It discusses topics in a thematic manner, with a central theme, clear structure, rigorous logic, concise language, and a simple writing style. It skillfully employs parallelism and vivid metaphors, such as the description of military actions: "Swift as the wind, silent as the forest, fierce as fire, immovable as a mountain, unpredictable as the shadows, and powerful as thunder" (from "The Art of War"). This description is both apt and vivid, and its rhythm is powerful and impressive.

Therefore, Liu Xie said, "Sun Tzu's Art of War is written in the style of pearls and jade" (Wenxin Diaolong, Chengqi).

For Sun Tzu, employing the meticulous thinking of warfare to plan and structure his writing was as easy as cooking a small fish.

"War is a matter of vital importance to the State; it is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected."

"The Art of War" inherited and developed the military theories of its predecessors, taking politics as the primary factor determining the outcome of war. It summarized the principles of war, explaining in detail everything from pre-war preparations, the application of strategies, the deployment of operations, and the analysis of the enemy situation. It is comprehensive and thorough, possessing a simple materialist dialectical thought. For more than two thousand years, it has been regarded as a classic of military strategy and still has great practical significance today.

Throughout history, countless famous generals have highly praised "The Art of War," and the wisdom, trustworthiness, benevolence, courage, and discipline advocated by Sun Tzu have become the "martial virtues" of soldiers in countless dynasties.

These unique items, which can permanently enhance one's basic attributes, undoubtedly contribute significantly to the overall strength of a faction.

In fact, if used well, it can elevate top-tier generals to god-level commanders, god-level commanders to saint-level commanders, and saint-level commanders to the level of legendary masters!

It is a treasure that can directly elevate the quality of the famous generals under a force or even a dynasty by an entire level!

"Phew...this is such a huge surprise!"

Su Ye took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in her heart, and looked at the fourth item.

"Ding! Fourth item: The exquisite and elegant sword—Cheng Ying Sword—350 Summoning Points. (Note: This is a sword of destiny; collecting all ten famous swords will produce different effects depending on the quantity!)"

Huh?

Another one of the ten famous swords, the Sword of Destiny?

After obtaining the Chun Jun Sword, Su Ye embarked on a quest to collect the Ten Famous Swords. The new work by Mu Jin Bai Yi is here, updated first across the entire internet! Different special effects will occur when you possess different numbers of the Ten Famous Swords.

Collecting all three famous swords will bring a noticeable surge of personal fortune. This will make the holder's career and life smoother, with significant improvements in both chance encounters and talent recruitment, resulting in a clear boost in luck.

Having collected all five famous swords, one can always choose the best solution when making decisions, and things often develop unexpectedly smoothly, as if an invisible force is pushing everything in a positive direction. When the holder establishes their own country, their national fortune will be passively increased by 10 years.

After collecting all eight famous swords, one's fortune will reach a new height. Not only will it attract more talented people and resources, but it will also be able to turn the tide at critical moments and avert danger. When one establishes their own country, it will passively increase their national fortune by 20 years.

By collecting all ten famous swords, one's fortune will reach its peak. Not only will one be able to completely control one's own destiny, but one can also influence the fortune of those around them to a certain extent. When one establishes one's own country, one will be passively granted an additional 50 years of national fortune.

Su Ye has always held a "better safe than sorry" attitude towards luck, and there's nothing unbelievable about it.

Moreover, luck is a mysterious thing. No matter who achieves great things, most people's path to success is more or less related to luck.

In this situation, even if someone else were to do it, it might not be possible to succeed.

They could even be made to relive the path they once walked.

They themselves are not necessarily confident that they can do it again.

Now, Su Ye has transmigrated to the Tianwu Continent, a different world with extraordinary powers.

Others may not believe it, but he is still likely to accept it.

The Chengying Sword is said to have been forged in the Zhou Dynasty. It was named after the "dragons carrying its shadow and wild geese forgetting to return" when it was forged. It is as famous as Hanguang and Xiaolian, and together they are known as the three swords of the Shang emperor (king, monarch, sage emperor).

Legend has it that at the moment when the sky turns from black to white, the two hands clasped together held a sword hilt, but the sword blade was not visible. However, a fleeting sword shadow was faintly cast on the north wall. The sword shadow only lasted for a moment before disappearing with the arrival of daylight.

As dusk fell and darkness descended, in the fleeting moment between day and night, the elusive sword shadow reappeared.

It drew an elegant arc with it, waving it towards a tall, ancient pine tree beside it. A soft "snap" sound reached my ears, and the tree trunk trembled slightly, but nothing changed. However, a short while later, the lush pine canopy gently fell over in a gentle southerly breeze, revealing the exposed rings of its growth, proclaiming the passage of time.

As darkness fell, the longsword vanished again, and the ancient twilight silently closed in, leaving the world in complete stillness.

This sword possesses unparalleled sharpness and elegance, and is hailed as the "Sword of Exquisite Elegance".

Its sharpness is not only keen, but also rich in profound cultural symbolism. It is often praised by poets and compared to the virtues of a gentleman, which are hidden and not ostentatious.

In the "Liezi: Tang Wen", Liezi praised the Chengying Sword highly, believing it to be the most perfect sword in the world.

Including the original peerless sword Chun Jun Sword in Su Ye's possession, Su Ye now has at least two famous swords.

One more attempt, and he'll be able to collect the first luck buff for this Ten Famous Swords quest.
