Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

The Mongol Yuan dynasty kept its promise and voluntarily withdrew from the many small worlds it controlled.

However, it is obvious that the resources in these small worlds have been plundered. Although they were not completely destroyed, they have caused ecological devastation.

Even if we manage to acquire many special crops, we can only prioritize increasing yields rather than starting production immediately.

How long will it take to resume production?

Zhuge Liang's expression remained unchanged; all of this was within his expectations.

These were originally their spoils of war, but when they were occupied by the Mongol Yuan and Ming dynasties, they were destined to shrink considerably.

Regardless, control of these worlds has effectively fallen into the hands of Xinghan, which is ultimately a good thing for them.

What they lack compared to the great empires is their foundation. These smaller worlds can undoubtedly enhance the empire's foundation, and are important in every aspect.

"Currently, it is estimated that it will take about a year and a half to resume production, and several domestic R&D and breeding lines will need to be suspended!" Nong Feng, the head of the Agricultural Department, reported with considerable distress.

"Propose a plan, then suspend the two research and development lines, and send them to work under the various kings for a year to restore the production of those special crops!"

Zhuge Liang thought about it for a moment. These things were obtained with great effort, and they couldn't just be left unattended.

Even if the taxes are allocated to the various kings, for Xinghan, collecting taxes and restoring production will definitely be more beneficial than harmful.

After finishing his official duties, Zhuge Liang went to Weiyang Palace.

At this moment, Han Xin and others were reviewing everything that had happened in the duel with Guan Yu, Xu Shu, and Sima Yi. The three of them gave three different approaches, leaving Guan Yu, Xu Shu, and Sima Yi speechless.

The three of them also reviewed everything that had happened, but in the process of self-examination, they believed that they had handled the situation almost perfectly.

Minor flaws are unavoidable when making judgments on the spot.

But after seeing how Han Xin, Bai Qi, and Sun Wu responded, one can only smile wryly; even military geniuses are not human.

Not only in terms of the approach, but also in many other details of command, the considerations have become more comprehensive.

If their opponents were Han Xin or someone like him, they would probably be wiped out in one fell swoop without even realizing it.

"How is it?" Zhuge Liang casually found a place to sit down and asked Xu Shu and Sima Yi, who both looked bitter.

"With the three of us, if we were to face Oduchi again, I'm afraid our chances of winning wouldn't even be 20%!" Xu Shu's face was full of frustration.

Just now, Bai Qi acted as their opponent, imitating Oduchi's style, and the direct pressure was terrifying.

He used his spiritual talent to constantly search for Bai Qi's weaknesses. When he seized an opening and launched a fierce attack, Bai Qi penetrated a third of their defenses. With the help of the cavalry that followed, they shattered their defenses in one fell swoop.

That sense of powerlessness made Xu Shu feel a little dazed. When Bai Qi erupted and anchored the future, it seemed that whatever he did was wrong.

The three of them worked together: Sima Yi weakened the enemy, Xu Shu searched for weaknesses, and Guan Yu led the Miracle Legion to negate the God of War's special effect with a single strike.

And then... no more.

The military god effect that Bai Qi had managed to negate with all his might was simply a tool that he no longer had at his disposal. He then used his command and dispatch skills to kill the three of them outright.

Can't we fight without the God of War special effects?
What a joke, that thing is ultimately just an accessory.

"How exactly can we deal with the God of War?" Sima Yi asked Zhuge Liang earnestly.

Compared to military geniuses like Han Xin, Bai Qi, and Sun Tzu, Zhuge Liang at least rose through the ranks from commanding large armies, so they still wanted to hear Zhuge Liang's answer.

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and then held up two fingers.

"The first option is that the quality of your soldiers can completely overwhelm that of a god of war, such as having all soldiers with miracles and three talents against all soldiers with two talents!"

Xu Shu and Sima Yi's eyes twitched for a moment. This was almost impossible, at least not in the Ming or Mongol Yuan dynasties.

Perhaps one day they will be able to use this strategy when dealing with a military genius born in some small kingdom or empire.

So they completely ignored that point and eagerly asked, "What about the second one?"

"Finding a military genius to form a dual command structure, like Ottochi plus the three of you, would be a great threat to me!"

Xu Shu closed his eyes, which was no different from saying nothing at all.

"Is there a third way, to become a god of war?" Sima Yi quipped.

"That is indeed one way!"

Zhuge Liang nodded seriously, leaving Sima Yi speechless.

While the three were chatting, Han Xin and Guan Yu's simulation came to an end.

Han Xin exited the simulation looking refreshed, while Guan Yu's expression was not so pleasant.

"We lost!" Guan Yu sighed.

Han Xin was carrying the banner of Oduchi. The two sides fought a great battle, and Guan Yu eventually died ten steps in front of Han Xin.

This kind of perverse sense of humor chilled Guan Yu's heart. It meant that Han Xin was able to control the pace and manage the situation from beginning to end; otherwise, he would never have been able to do something so perverse.

The lack of a clear ending was a regret for Guan Yu, but after simulating the situation with Han Xin and others, he discovered that the probability of him killing Oduchi was less than 55%.

Even though Okutochi is a newly promoted military god, there are many things he still needs to improve. But once he enters the level of military god, his level in all aspects will naturally rise.

Frankly speaking, if it weren't for the fact that Guan Yu's swordsmen broke through the limits and created the Miracle Legion, Guan Yu would most likely have died on the battlefield.

Commanding a large army is a complete plaything for military geniuses.

It's like two sharpshooters, one of whom is a step faster than the other, and the difference is almost a matter of life and death.

Before a military genius, the difference in commanding a large army lies only in how much time they can buy.

Ideally, the main army would be commanded to defend the city against the attacking war god. In this scenario, the main army should be able to hold out for a long time.

As for winning... it's almost impossible.

This plunged everyone into deep anxiety.

The God of War can only be dealt with by the God of War. Without considering the outcome, Xinghan can deal with a maximum of eight.

Han Xin, Bai Qi, Sun Wu, Wu Qi, Zhuge Liang, Yue Fei, and Wang Baobao are seven of them, which goes without saying. The last one is Mu Yi himself.

Although command and dispatch can almost be considered the floor tiles of military genius, this is mainly due to a lack of practical opportunities.

There is a difference between simulation and real-world practice. At least for now, it seems impossible to become a military genius through simulation.

As long as you can get a chance to play against any top-tier player, win or lose, you can improve to your normal level.

However, it would be completely impossible for Mu Yi to practice on the battlefield. Any war would be completely different in nature if Mu Yi were put into it.

During the establishment of the Star Han Empire, Mu Yi had many opportunities, but he ceded them all to Han Xin, Yue Fei, and others in order to maintain stability. Now, Mu Yi has completely lost any possibility of taking action.

Once you step off the field, it's tantamount to flipping the table.

But even a floor tile is still a god of war, standing on the same level as Han Xin and others. In fact, Mu Yi's win rate against any of these gods of war is not low.

The command floor tiles, corresponding to Mu Yi's God of War special effect, are arguably the most unbeatable among all God of War characters.

The entire army's overall quality is increased by one, without any mechanism; the underlying values ​​are directly modified, resulting in a display of numerical aesthetics.

All military gods possess the ability to enhance soldiers' strength to its limit.

Whether it's the spread of military spirit, the independent area of ​​will, or the secret techniques of cloud energy, all of these can push the strength of soldiers to the upper limit that they can bear.

How much stronger a soldier can become depends entirely on his own qualities and how much power he can withstand.

Mu Yi's special effects directly modify the soldiers' qualities, raising the limits of what the soldiers can withstand.

If we say that the upper limit for each person's capacity is 200%.

After the special effects of Mu Yijun are modified, his internal energy condensation will change from 200% to 200% of internal energy forming a powerful force. The difference between these two is almost chasm.

Strictly speaking, Mu Yi should be considered a military commander.

When a monarch's talents are fully unleashed, it is indeed possible to achieve a situation where the average quality of one's own soldiers is a level higher than that of the enemy.

If he were given command of several large armies, aside from top military geniuses like Han Xin and Bai Qi, the other military geniuses would most likely be soundly defeated.

After all, the essence of command is to target and bully the weak, but if everyone on the other side is stronger than your side, then the significance of command and dispatch will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, eight military gods represent the maximum number of enemies that Xinghan can withstand at the same time.

After all, if all the military geniuses were to take action, it would be like flipping the table.

They only deployed such a lavish lineup when dealing with the Qing court.

"Have the losses of each unit been tallied?" Mu Yi asked Zhuge Liang.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the losses of all departments have been tallied!" Zhuge Liang presented a list to Mu Yi.

The most devastating losses were suffered by Guan Yu's main force, which was reduced to less than three thousand men.

Secondly, there was the Dragon Knights led by Huang Zhong.

The air force battles are more brutal, while ground troops may be able to retreat and reorganize their defenses, and seriously wounded soldiers may have a chance to be treated.

In aerial combat, serious injury means death; there is no chance of survival.

Under the clouds, if a giant dragon were to fall and crash to the ground, it would most likely perish.

The number of dragons is already small. Even though Dong Bai's method of dragon breeding has solved the problem of dragon reproduction in recent years, the base number and development cycle are still there, making it basically impossible for them to grow quickly.

The losses had never been significant before, but this time it's truly crippling.

"Send several small worlds to the dragon race, and organize manpower to build a central city where humans and dragons coexist!" Mu Yi glanced at the battle damage, pondered for a moment, and issued an order.

"At the same time, order the expedition team to find alternative air force combat units!"

In terms of air force, Xinghan is still too weak.

To form an effective combat force, it is necessary to expand the scale.

The Giant Eagle Legion sent by the Mongol Yuan Dynasty is a good example. As long as similar species can be found and bred, an air force can be continuously built.

"Your Majesty, Consort Dong has made new progress in this regard. The dragon clan has a subordinate branch called the Wyvern, whose intelligence is no different from that of animals, but whose body is slightly inferior to that of dragons. It seems that they can reproduce on a large scale using the Dragon Splitting Secret Technique!"

"Moreover, the dragon race possesses a commanding effect over these two-legged wyverns!"

"Oh?" Mu Yi hadn't expected that Dong Bai, the Dragon Queen, would be involved in this area.

"Increase manpower and funding, and quickly build two legions to test their effectiveness!" Mu Yi nodded and immediately began to increase investment.

Speaking of air force, Mu Yi has always felt that the most suitable air force is the exploding bugs in the insect plague.

If giant eagles and dragons are airplanes, then these insects are cheap self-destructing drones.

In terms of cost-effectiveness, it's absolutely top-notch, and in terms of reproduction, insects completely outperform other creatures.

However, due to the insect infestation, this thing is now difficult to expose.

Once exposed, it could even provoke a joint attack from the Ming Dynasty and the Mongol Yuan Dynasty.

Although both the Ming and Mongol Yuan dynasties must have kept some of the insects for research in secret, these things could not be brought out into the open.

"Distribute the compensation to all departments as soon as possible. The Netherworld will try to rescue the people as quickly as possible. The compensation payments should not stop until the people are recovered from the Netherworld!"

After reviewing the list of battle losses, Mu Yi gave Zhuge Liang a brief explanation.

He knew about Zhuge Liang's plan to purge the old Roman aristocracy. Even though most of them were driven by revenge, they had all died fighting for the interests of Xinghan, and should be treated equally in all aspects.

"Yes!"

Most of the losses were concentrated on the Roman legions, since the majority of the Roman legions were concentrated in the center of the battlefield.

Even though most of them were heavy infantry, the losses were still staggering.

In particular, the Second Augustus Legion was discovered by the Mongol Yuan forces to be a non-traditional heavy infantry unit and was directly targeted with concentrated fire. The full-strength legion suffered 3,700 casualties, and its organization was almost completely destroyed.

Another significant loss was to the Northern Duke's Guard. Although they weren't the primary targets, their own strength was too weak. Even though they were following behind the Fourth Macedonian forces, they were still badly beaten in the fierce battlefield.

Especially during the final clash, the Fourth Macedonian forces couldn't spare any attention for them and were severely targeted by Oduchi, leaving the entire legion with just over two thousand men. However, it seems that they also entered the ranks of the three talents as a result, which can be considered a small gain.

For the barbarians, a powerful and meritorious legion is the foundation of their confidence in having a voice in the Roman Council.

Rome suffered a significant loss, and Zhuge Liang seized this opportunity to decisively eliminate a portion of the old Roman nobles.

These former Roman nobles, immersed in their past glory, have become stumbling blocks on Xinghan's path to development.

The reason we haven't taken action yet is because we're worried that a civil war would have a greater impact.

Now that the Roman legions have returned from their expedition, they are aware of their own weakness and are also severely weakened. Faced with Zhuge Liang's actions, their attempts to resist were extinguished without even a ripple.

A group of Roman barbarian citizens joined these old nobles in causing trouble, but Zhuge Liang easily swept them away, and Rome was settled in less than a month.

Even ordinary Roman citizens were unaware that an earthquake had occurred, thus nipping all problems in the bud. (End of Chapter)
