Silver Faced War God

In the autumn of the thirty-seventh year of Dajing's reign, smoke was everywhere outside Yanmen Pass, and barbarian cavalry pressed down on the border. The seventeen-year-old young general Ling Xiao, wearing a dark iron mask and a silver-patterned war robe, stood at the top of the city. He defeated the elite barbarians with the Queyue Formation, captured the enemy's leader alive, and became famous in one battle. He was the only son of the Taifu, and he had thousands of military books in his belly. He had an eye for every detail of the battlefield. He was able to take the general's head in the chaos of the army, and he was also able to set up camp step by step in the undercurrents of the court. Faced with the prying eyes of King An in Beijing, he used a counterfeit token to force the supervisor Zhao Xian into a dilemma; he rushed thousands of miles to attack the royal court of Langshan, destroying the foundation of the barbarians with five thousand elites; he cleverly changed the formation in the rainforest of southern Xinjiang, and ordered the cavalry to disarm and form a solid formation on foot to defeat the Red Snake tribe. He was the "silver-faced God of War" in the mouth of the northern soldiers, a young marshal who frightened the barbarians. However, when the world was at peace and the new emperor wanted to confer kings and titles, he quietly took off his shirt and returned to his hut in Mang Mountain. He only wanted to read a book of scriptures with his old father and watch the peace of the world. The iron face conceals the sharp edge, and the silver spear determines all directions. His legend begins in the wind and sand of Yanmen Pass and ends in the moonlight of Mang Mountain. It hides the most ardent loyalty and courage of the military commander and the clearest original intention.
