Reborn as Liu Hong: Building a Divine Great Han Empire

Emperor Ling of Han was the last powerful emperor of the Han Dynasty, a figure who could have altered the course of history, yet he became the root cause of the empire's collapse.

Fate ha...

Chapter 239 He probably won't stab me, right?

Zhang Huan shared the emperor's concerns in the letter.

Han Chinese cavalry were naturally at a disadvantage compared to the nomadic steppe cavalry who had grown up on horseback. They could only gain a slight advantage by virtue of their superior armor and weaponry.

Zhang Huan then ordered someone to bring an oil lamp, and then burned the letter in front of Jian Shuo and the soldiers.

Seeing Zhang Huan's actions, Jian Shuo nodded to himself, then stood up and looked at Zhang Huan, saying with a smile, "I have brought with me gifts from His Majesty for General Zhang and the other generals!"

"Oh? What is this gift?"

Not only Zhang Huan, but also Dong Zhuo, Lü Bu, Gao Shun and others looked at Jian Shuo with great curiosity.

Jian Shuo smiled and nodded to the Imperial Guard officer beside him.

The Imperial Guard officer understood, turned to look outside the tent, and then shouted, "Bring the items in!!"

Soon, two teams of Imperial Guards carried more than a dozen wooden boxes and several weapons into the tent.

The most eye-catching thing is the halberd carried on the shoulder of a soldier in front.

The soldier stood his halberd on the ground, and everyone couldn't help but scrutinize him closely.

This halberd has a blade about six inches long, with a small crescent-shaped halberd on each side below the blade. The blades are cold and sharp, clearly indicating that they are extremely sharp.

Looking back, the shaft of the halberd is carved with extremely exquisite details. Combined with the sharp halberd blade and two crescent-shaped halberds, the whole thing looks majestic and imposing, yet it is not without beauty. It is truly a rare and powerful weapon.

Seeing the soldier struggling, all the soldiers in the tent were shocked and began to secretly guess the weight of the halberd.

The moment Lu Bu saw the halberd, he was startled. He stared at it intently, his blood boiling, his fingers trembling as if the halberd was calling to him.

"This halberd is truly a rare and powerful weapon. The cold light on its blade inspires fear. The blade and the crescent halberd are perfectly integrated, clearly crafted by a master craftsman."

Looking at the exquisite and imposing halberd, Zhang Huan couldn't help but admire it.

"General Zhang is indeed discerning! This halberd, named 'Fangtian Halberd' by His Majesty, was meticulously crafted over two months by order of His Majesty, using the finest iron!"

Jian Shuo proudly introduced the origin of the Fangtian Halberd to everyone.

Upon hearing Jian Shuo's introduction, the generals inside the tent couldn't help but look at the "Fangtian Huaji" with shining eyes.

Zhang Huan couldn't help but ask, "Then, I wonder, for which general did Your Majesty specially forge this halberd?"

Upon hearing Zhang Huan's question, everyone in the tent looked at Jian Shuo with eager eyes.

Although they don't know how to use it, it was personally commissioned by His Majesty and made by the renowned Marquis of Moyang, so it's not hard to guess just how valuable this Fangtian Halberd is.

If they possessed it, they probably wouldn't trade it for an equal weight of gold, because it's not just a weapon, but a supreme honor.

Lu Bu's heart was also racing, and his face was flushed as he looked at Jian Shuo. It was clear that he desired the weapon more than anyone else.

Jian Shuo glanced at the generals with a smile, and finally his gaze settled on Lü Bu.

Then Jian Shuo laughed and said, "His Majesty said that a divine weapon is worthy of a hero, and only Lü Bu, Lü Fengxian, can wield the Fangtian Halberd!"

As Jian Shuo finished speaking, the tent fell silent.

All the generals in the tent looked at Lü Bu with envy. To receive such affirmation and high regard from the emperor, not to mention their Bingzhou army, even in the entire Han army, Lü Bu was probably the first.

On the other hand, Lü Bu was in a daze.

At this moment, Lü Bu's mind was blank, with only the emperor's words, "Only Lü Bu, Lü Fengxian, can wield the halberd!" echoing in his mind.

Seeing Lü Bu standing there dumbfounded, Jian Shuo smiled, then walked up to Lü Bu and said a reminder:

"General Lü, why don't you hurry up and thank His Majesty for his great kindness?"

"Bu kowtows in gratitude to Your Majesty for your divine grace!!"

Upon hearing Jian Shuo's reminder, Lü Bu turned around and bowed deeply towards Luoyang with an excited expression.

"Haha~ Fengxian, hurry up and accept the weapon His Majesty has bestowed upon you!"

Zhang Huan laughed heartily and quickly gestured for Lü Bu to take the halberd.

"kindness!"

Lu Bu stood up, his expression excited, and came to the halberd. His trembling right hand reached out towards the shaft.

The moment Lu Bu made contact with the halberd, he couldn't help but tremble. He felt as if the halberd had become one with him in an instant.

A voice kept echoing in Lü Bu's ears: "The halberd is me, and I am the halberd."

Lu Bu closed his eyes, recalling a sentence his master had once said: "The halberd technique has no form; it is wielded by strength, controlled by skill, and executed with the mind!"

After a moment of contemplation, Lü Bu suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them.

Then Lü Bu looked at Jian Shuo and Zhang Huan and asked respectfully, "Jian Changshi, Zhang General, I have just mastered a set of halberd techniques. Would you be willing to demonstrate them?"

"Haha~ Very well! His Majesty often says that Lü Bu is the most valiant general of our Han Dynasty. Today, I would like to see for myself!"

Jian Shuo immediately burst into laughter, and Zhang Huan, who was standing next to him, also smiled and nodded in agreement.

Then everyone arrived at an open space outside the tent. Lü Bu, holding his halberd, came to the center of the open space, bowed to Zhang Huan and Jian Shuo respectively, and then closed his eyes to recall the halberd technique he had just mastered.
