"Lord Xuande, don't you think your troops are a bit few?" Chen Xi said playfully, "We all know what the most elite soldiers in the world are today. Instead of borrowing the strength of others, we might as well strengthen ourselves."

"After all, we are like a tree without roots; it is already a mercy of heaven to have this many troops. Could Zichuan be referring to the Xiliang Iron Cavalry as the world's most elite soldiers?" Sparkles flickered in Liu Bei's eyes.

"Yes, this is a gift I've prepared for you. It's time to leave this place, and we should take them away while we're at it. If Zijian can demonstrate the commanding ability of the foremost warrior of Xiliang, I estimate there won't be any problem in recruiting about ten thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry this time," Chen Xi laughed and then gestured to Hua Xiong, "It's all on you now. After all, you've been in Xiliang for a long time. If you have enough renown, the road ahead will be much easier."
