Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1163 The Power of the Han Dynasty

The signing of the alliance went smoothly.

After Lü Meng and Feng Yi presented their alliance documents, both sides confirmed that there were no problems and signed their names.

But what they had in common was that the people who signed were not themselves.

The Yuan family signed the contract with Yuan Tan, while the Han dynasty signed the contract with Liu Zhi.

The commander of a large army is only absolute on the battlefield, but when he retreats off the battlefield, his status becomes tied to many other things.

"We want the knowledge of your archer legion!"

Name your price!

Feng Yi raised his wine cup, showing respect for capable people, while Lü Meng had indeed defeated him head-on.

Even though he took advantage of the information gap, in the post-battle review, he discovered that Lü Meng had used a lot of psychological warfare tactics to guide the battlefield situation to the final step.

"I'll exchange it for knowledge of the Illusion System!" Lu Meng decisively offered his price. These were all things he had estimated beforehand, so Lu Meng didn't hesitate at all.

"Okay!" Feng Yi hesitated for a moment, then immediately decided to make the exchange.

They currently value Changshui Camp above all else; they must spare no expense to analyze Changshui Camp in the shortest possible time in order to develop countermeasures.

Lu Meng raised an eyebrow. He had considered that the other party would accept, but he had not expected them to be so decisive.

"It seems that there are a lot of political problems within this Han Dynasty..." Lu Meng thought silently, but did not continue to speak.

He didn't need to probe; he just needed to pave the way and then hand it over to Jia Xu to manage.

There's no need to know so much; he'll basically never appear on the battlefield against the Han again.

“According to the alliance, we will be leaving, and it’s unlikely that we will be the ones coming here next time. Would you like to have a friendly spar?” Li Jiao invited Oswin.

"No need," Oswin said with a smile. "The outcome of our battle is not indicative of the war's outcome. Let's keep the peace!"

Before they arrived, Sun Tzu specifically instructed them not to spar with the Miracle Legion on the other side.

Although Oswin didn't know why, he carried out the instruction very well.

Li Jiao gave Oswin a deep look, but didn't dwell on it. Instead, she changed the subject and brought up another matter.

"How about we exchange intelligence?"

Oswin sensed something was off and didn't respond.

"I said before that in terms of legions alone, we are the strongest in the Han Dynasty, but that only applies between legions!" Li Jiao's expression changed slightly as he recalled the towering mountain that no one in the entire Han Dynasty could surpass.

His prized legion was nothing compared to the enemy's, and this disparity was truly the most painful thing.

Oswin, of course, understood what that meant.

Anything that is the strongest becomes reasonable once a limiting affix is ​​added.

He had already anticipated this when Li Jiao introduced himself, but he didn't expect the other party to bring it up at this time.

"I would like to know if your side possesses such a legion!"

Oswin looked at Lü Meng, who nodded, indicating that Oswin could make the exchange.

Measuring the shape of an empire by its height is certainly not a problem.

“Yes! We have a miracle legion that surpasses all other legions!” Oswin’s eyes twitched slightly as he recalled the incredible feats of the First Yellow Heaven.

When Huang Tian made his move, he attacked him as well, so he remembered it vividly.

"The strongest legion of the Han Dynasty is called the Champion Cavalry. Their elite talent is not strong, but they are simply blessed with psychological attack and defense!" Li Jiao said this with a hint of frustration.

"But under that general's leadership, they were utterly invincible monsters!"

The Li family was a renowned and prestigious clan in the world of Emperor Wu of Han, a true military family.

However, they were completely unable to contend with a prodigy who, in an extremely short time and with unparalleled achievements, created a miracle.

Putting aside their opponents, the Champion Cavalry was not actually the strongest legion.

However, under the enemy's leadership, the Champion Cavalry was the most powerful and miraculous legion in the Han Dynasty.

Even if one were to add the Illusion Knights, the strongest legion in terms of sheer strength, one would have to admit that the other side, under the leadership of that Champion Marquis, was the strongest legion.

"The strongest legion of the Han Dynasty is called the First Yellow Heaven. Its elite troops are not particularly talented; their strength comes purely from spiritual enhancement!"

Oswin sighed. The First Yellow Heaven's talent framework might not be stronger than the Sun Knights, nor might it be stronger than other legions.

However, First Yellow Heaven went too far down this path, and its basic strength was too overwhelming, which is why almost no one could stand against First Yellow Heaven.

Lu Meng and Feng Yi, standing to the side, fell into deep thought upon hearing the answer from the other side.

From this limited glimpse, Lü Meng gleaned information that there were at least three or four Miracle Legions on the opposing side.

After all, if there are only one or two, there is no need to make such a rigorous setting.

Similarly, Feng Yi came to the same conclusion: the opposing empire possessed a strong foundation, and the Miracle Legion was ranked above several others.

Both sides' wariness of the opposing empire has reached a new level.

In the Han Dynasty, each miracle legion often meant a huge logistics team and a large army with the same roots.

Based on their own situation within the Illusion System, they could certainly derive approximate data about the Star River, but such data would not be accurate.

That's why they used this method to test the waters.

Gathering intelligence was of great importance to them, and Feng Yi and Lü Meng shared almost identical thoughts.

“The First Yellow Heaven…” Feng Yi chewed on the name.

Often, a lot of information can be gleaned from the name itself.

“You don’t want to see them!” Oswin’s eyes darkened at the thought of the First Yellow Heaven, who had once beaten up the Sun Knights for a whole month.

It came in the middle of the night, and it played an indispensable role in bringing the sun in one's heart to life.

"Too!"

Li Jiao nodded. They would most likely avoid battlefields involving the Xinghan Empire in the future, and at least until they figured out a way to counter the Changshui Camp, they would not continue to fight. The alliance meeting ended in harmony. Lü Meng left with a near-perfect report card, and Zhou Tai left with him as well.

Zhou Tai originally wanted to stay, but Lü Meng made a big promise to him, saying he would invite Zhou Tai to explore the other world together.

Furthermore, since the Qingyang soldiers were very similar to his own troops, Zhou Tai felt that he wouldn't have much of a chance to go to the battlefield if he stayed behind, so he simply submitted an application and went back to Luoyang with Lü Meng.

Meanwhile, Liu Zhi, upon returning to the capital of the Han Dynasty with the covenant, immediately recounted the entire story to Emperor Guangwu.

"Such a thing actually happened?" Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu sat on his throne, somewhat surprised by the development of this part of the war.

"Trading space for time?" Liu Xiu looked at the alliance document and immediately saw through its true meaning.

The Yuan family's decision to abandon external expansion is itself a form of giving up space.

Clearly, compared to a vast territory, the Yuan family needed more time to develop and win over allies, which is why they agreed to the conditions proposed in Lü Meng's alliance agreement.

"Is Zhou Yafu still over there?" Liu Xiu asked, putting down the alliance document.

"Yes, General Zhou is trying to recreate the legion called Changshui Battalion!" Liu Zhi replied quickly.

"Then let's hand it over to the lineage of Emperor Wu of Han!" Liu Xiu pondered for a moment. "They ran into a snag before, so you can go over and take over the garrison."

"Although the opponent over there is troublesome, it's only a matter of time before you conquer them. Go and get to work!" Liu Xiu waved his hand, dismissing Liu Zhi.

Although the Illusionary Force has exposed fatal flaws, the reason why it was able to become one of the basic troop types recognized by the Great Han Empire is because of its immense strategic value.

Even against some formidable opponents, the Illusionist class can rely on relentless attrition to defeat them completely.

This is also one of the reasons why Feng Yi decided to retreat: as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.

Liu Xiu did not punish Liu Zhi and Feng Yi, after all, they had not done anything wrong, and victory and defeat are common occurrences in war.

Moreover, for Liu Xiu, failure was not a terrible thing; such failure often meant that he would have good luck next.

Liu Xiu casually pulled out a document from the pile of files, and his eyelids twitched. It contained a military training plan for the merger of three factions sent by the lineage of Emperor Gaozu of Han.

"Training plan?" Liu Xiu stroked the plan with his fingers, deciding to trust his luck.

Although it sounds absurd, Liu Xiu's talent as a monarch was indeed a mix of fortune and misfortune, allowing him to maximize his luck.

This kind of luck once enabled him to constantly meet influential people, and now it also enables his empire to constantly trigger lucky events.

Technological research and development can be greatly enhanced by a flash of inspiration; soldiers who venture into the mountains to gather herbs may encounter rare and precious materials; and craftsmen who forge weapons may create superb divine weapons with a divine hammer blow...

Even when Liu Xiu's fortune reached its peak, he connected the two Han worlds, and the three families merged, directly creating a powerful Han Empire.

The three forces combined to crush the Xiongnu Empire, another powerful empire that Liu Xiu had encountered that had already expanded across the world.

It was precisely because of this experience, coupled with the fact that the three companies share the same roots, that the integration proceeded relatively smoothly.

Although the separation of powers still exists, most of the time, things like troop rotations can be approved with just simple communication.

However, the three organizations are essentially separate entities, operating under a cooperative system similar to that of a parliament, and they also compete with each other.

However, the joint military training plan proposed by the lineage of Emperor Gaozu of Han was to draw a group of soldiers and officers from each family and integrate them to form a joint army that could be directly mobilized for battle. Unless the other two families all objected, troops could be mobilized unconditionally.

Liu Xiu had some reservations about this kind of deep cooperation before, but at this critical juncture of defeat, he suddenly drew this opportunity, which may be a sign that good fortune has been activated.

"Cooperation?"

Looking at the several legions clearly planned in the plan, similar to the structure of the Three Rivers and Five Schools, Liu Xiu saw that they were quite mature legions with a very high minimum standard and an impressive maximum standard. They would cooperate and coordinate with each other, and also cultivate the ability to command large legions.

Overall, it is entirely beneficial and without any drawbacks; in fact, it can yield three times the results with the expenditure of one resource.

Aside from the issue of control, it seems to have no other drawbacks.

"Since we're going to do this, let's add some more things!" Liu Xiu thought for a moment, then picked up his pen and wrote down the Illusion Legion and the Changshui Camp.

Since each faction needs to produce a military genius anyway, using the combined strength of the three factions to research the Illusion Legion and the Long Water Camp is a good option.

The weaknesses of the Illusion Legion have been exposed, and there is no point in continuing to keep them a secret.

It would be better to just openly show it and use the unique unit types of the other two players.

"By the way, let's form an envoy delegation to Xinghan and see what kind of empire Xinghan really is!" Liu Xiu stroked his chin.

The Eastern Han Dynasty was the Han Dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty was the Han Dynasty, and this Han Dynasty could also be the Han Dynasty.

If another empire could be introduced to fill the parliament, the Han Empire they united would likely become a behemoth with no rivals.

Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, controlled two major world powers and was conquering a third. Part of his idea for forming a coalition was to hope that these powers would send personnel to cooperate.

After all, the coalition forces definitely need a place to practice and coordinate, and a large world that puts up a strong resistance is a good target for the campaign.

As for Emperor Wu of Han, he adopted a policy of conquering smaller worlds, completely obsessed with expanding his territory, and controlled the largest area among the three.

As for Guangwu's side, he preferred to follow the elite path. Like Xinghan, he distributed the conquered small and medium-sized worlds to powerful families, while the government actually controlled two large worlds.

It could be described as division or internal disintegration. At least during the reign of Emperor Guangwu, the major clans were unable to unite. Everyone had their own interests and ulterior motives, and they could only closely unite under Emperor Guangwu's command.

All things considered, the three combined are roughly equivalent to eight great worlds in scale.

Wise men emerge in abundance, and fierce generals abound.

They are capable of fighting any opponent, which is why Liu Zhi and others didn't take the Yuan family seriously before.

After all, the empire they were backed by was simply too powerful.

Therefore, they were able to maintain an almost arrogant self-confidence towards ordinary kingdoms and empires.

"Send someone to invite General Dou over, and tell him I have something to discuss with him!"

After thinking it over, Liu Xiu decided to send the second Marquis of Champion of the Han Dynasty to participate in this joint army, and also to inquire about the effectiveness of the Changshui Camp against the Crimson Blood Cavalry.

After all, the three trump cards of Emperor Guangwu's reign were the Illusionist faction, the Crimson Blood Cavalry, and Liu Xiu's own forces.

Liu Xiu's own troops fought by luck, while the Illusion Cavalry and Crimson Blood Cavalry fought using Illusion Warriors to varying degrees.

The only difference is that one is the Illusion Rider, which can infinitely revive Illusion Warriors, while the other is the Crimson Blood Rider, which cannot revive but can extract malevolent energy and killing intent, and at the same time give birth to several malevolent soldiers.

If the Changshui Camp can directly counter these two trump cards, then Liu Xiu really needs to consider how to reform the system to take it a step further. (End of Chapter)
