Records of the Human Emperor Chapter 522: The Empire's Southwest! The Battle in the Rainstorm!

Wang Yan and his son were far from as famous as the Old Master of the Wang Clan, Duke Jiu, but Wang Yan himself was famous for being a combat general. His strategies utilized both defense and offense, and though they were somewhat inflexible, they were truly formidable.

"The Great Tang of the Central Plains is truly bursting with talented individuals!"

Dalun Ruozan gave a deep sigh. Even though the Great Tang was the enemy, Dalun Ruozan truly had to admire it for its wealth of talent and culture. These were not things that Ü-Tsang could match up to.
