### Summary
General Ousen's true genius is laid bare, revealing a strategy that transcends the battlefield. His secret request to Shouheikun was not for reinforcements, but for a stunning political alliance with the state of Qi. This masterstroke secures a vital supply line deep within enemy territory, a move that completely blindsides the brilliant Riboku. As the reality of his defeat sinks in, it becomes clear that Riboku was not just outmaneuvered by Ousen, but ultimately undone by the very corruption he failed to purge from his own Zhao court, proving his loyalty to a flawed king to be his greatest weakness.
