He was husky, with bandy legs well suited to clenching the sides of his horse. For armor, he wore only a greasy hauberk and a conical skullcap trimmed with matted fur. His dark, slitlike eyes sat over broad cheekbones. Atthe bottom of a flat nose, the rider's black mustache drooped over a frown that was both hungry and brutal. He breathed in shallow hisses timed to match the drumming of his mount's hooves.  \nAs he studied the horsewarrior's visage, a sense of eagerness came over General Batu Min Ho. The general stood in his superior's roomy pavilion, over a mile away from the rider. Along with his commander, a sorcerer, and two of his peers, Batu was studying the enemy in a magic scrying basin. Physically, the barbarian looked no different from the thieving marauders who sporadically raided the general's home province, Chukei. Yet, there was a certain brutal discipline that branded the man a true soldier. At last, after twenty years of chasing down bands of nomad raiders, Batu knew he was about to fight a real war.  \nBatu forced himself to ignore his growing exhilaration and concentrate on the task at hand. Staring into the scrying basin, he felt as though he were looking into a mirror. Aside from the barbarian's heavy-boned stature and coarse mustache, the general and the rider might have been brothers. Like the horseman, Batu had dark eyes set wide over broad cheeks, a flat nose with flaring nostrils, and a powerful build. The pair was even dressed similarly, save that the general's chia, a long coat of rhinoceros-hide armor, was nowhere near as filthy as the rider's hauberk.  \n\"So, our enemies are not blood-drinking devils, as the peasants would have us believe.\" The speaker was Kwan Chan Sen, Shou Lung's Minister of War, Third-Degree General, and Batu's immediate commander. An ancient man with skin as shriveled as a raisin's, Kwan wore his long white hair gathered into a warrior's topknot. A thin blue film dulled his black eyes, though the haze seemed to cause him no trouble seeing.  \nBy personally taking the field against the barbarians, the old man had astonished his subordinates, including Batu. Kwan was rumored to be one hundred years old, and he looked every bit of his age. Nevertheless, he seemed remarkably robust and showed no sign of fatigue from the hardships of the trail.  \nResting his milky eyes on Batu's face, the minister continued. \"If we may judge by the enemy's semblance to General Batu, they are nothing but mortal men.\"  \nBatu frowned, uncertain as to whether the comment was a slight to his heritage or just an observation. An instant later, he decided the minister's intent did not matter.  \nSettling back into his chair, Kwan waved a liver-spotted hand at the basin.\"We've seen enough of these thieves,\" he said, addressing his wu jen, the arrogant sorcerer who had not even bothered to introduce himself to Batu orthe others. \"Take it away.\"  \nAs the wu jen reached for the bowl, Batu held out his hand. \"Not yet, if it pleases the minister,\" he said, politely bowing to Kwan.  \nBatu's fellow commanders gave him a sidelong glance. He knew the other  \nmen only by the armies they commanded—Shengti and Ching Tung—but they made it clear that they felt it was not Batu's place to object. They were both first-degree generals, each commanding a full provincial army of ten thousand men. In addition, both Shengti and Ching Tung were close to sixty years old.  \nOn the other hand, Batu was only thirty-eight, and, though he was also a first-degree general, he commanded an army of only five thousand men. In the hierarchy of first-degree generals, the young commander from Chukei clearly occupied the lowest station.  \nNevertheless, Batu continued, \"If it pleases Minister Kwan, we might benefit from seeing the skirmish line again.\"  \nKwan twisted his wrinkles into a frown and glared at his subordinate. Finally, he pushed hims","cbCaiaSwjN36G7TV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaSwjN36G7TV","pdf",701535,190,"English","# The Minister's Plan\n## Scrying the enemy\n## Minister Kwan's orders","[{\"question\":\"Who is General Batu Min Ho and what is his role?\",\"answer\":\"Batu Min Ho is a first-degree general responsible for an army of five thousand men.
