Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 865: Calculations and Preparations before the War
As the battle was imminent, a drizzle began to fall around the imperial city.

"It shouldn't rain at this time of year."

Han Xin couldn't help feeling a little strange when listening to the sound of rain outside the tent.

"It shouldn't rain today." Zhang Liang shook his head and said.

A general who does not understand astronomy, geography, the mysteries of the past, yin and yang, battle formations, and the military situation is a mediocre person.

Although Zhang Liang was not very good at practical operations, he was quite good at observing astronomical phenomena and climate. In addition, he had been in the fairy circle for some time, so he was quite confident in his judgment of the weather.

After Zhang Liang finished speaking, Han Xin had a headache. Since it was not formed naturally and was not done by their own people, it could only have been done by the enemy.

Why would the enemy want to change the celestial phenomena at this time?
"What is the Qing army going to do next?"

"Is it to slow down our offensive?" Yang Xiu put forward a hypothesis.

"If you really want to slow down your progress, you should at least double the amount!" Chen Gong glanced at Yang Xiu and casually denied it.

Although there was a drizzle in the sky, the war did not stop at all, and the legion attacks and cannon fodder charges never stopped for a moment.

"I don't know what the other side wants to do, but tomorrow I will drag away all the clouds!"

Chen Gong used his spiritual talent and superhuman wisdom but couldn't come up with any results, so he decided to solve the problem from the root.

Since we are not sure what rain means, we can just drag all the clouds away to prevent it from raining in this area.

This is not difficult for wise men who have the ability to change the situation.

"I think this is more like a signal!" Zhang Liang guessed boldly.

"Signal?" Mu Yi thought of Nurhaci when he saw him at that time and nodded involuntarily.

As they continued to attack the city these days, it became almost countless times more difficult for Huang Taiji to pass on messages than before, and he was directly cut off from the outside world.

It doesn't seem impossible to convey messages in this way.

"It seems that the emperor of the Qing court can no longer bear it!" Chen Gong narrowed his eyes slightly and kept postulating possible situations.

"Increase the number of patrols in the next two days to ensure that we can detect the enemy's breakout as soon as possible!" Han Xin casually gave the order to be on alert.

It has become a consensus on the Xinghan side that the Qing army will break out. The question now is to see where and when the other side will break out.

At this critical moment, it suddenly started to rain lightly on the other side. No matter how you look at it, it has some symbolic meaning, and there is definitely nothing wrong with being cautious.

"Have you checked the area within a radius of fifty miles?" Han Xin asked in a deep voice.

"The scouts and falcons have been sent out, and the white horses have been brought back from the grassland. Any disturbance within a radius of fifty miles will be reported to us immediately!"

Rahul, who was in charge of exploring the surrounding area, reported.

"I am also using my clairvoyance to monitor. Even the Fifth Skylark would not be able to survive in this kind of surveillance range!"

Han Xin frowned when he heard this. He still felt it was a bit unreliable.

Especially the drizzle made Han Xin have a bad feeling.

"Pass my order, the First Yellow Sky Legion, the Kshatriya Warrior Legion, conduct a carpet search within a fifty-mile radius, and make sure there is nothing within the fifty-mile radius!"

Ma Er, whose name was called, looked at Mu Yi, and Mu Yi nodded. Although Han Xin was a little too cautious, this battle was of great significance, and it was necessary to eliminate any impossible factors.

"Remember to search underground as well!" Han Xin shouted out Ma Er's solemn instructions when Ma Er was about to leave.

"Underground? Are you worried that those rat fairies will attack from underground?" Chen Gong immediately understood Han Xin's concerns.

"Should we let Zhongda test the waters first?" Zhang Liang suggested.

"Yes!" Mu Yi thought about it and agreed.

Sima Yi's spiritual talent can indeed expose some hidden things directly.

"I'll try and see if I can get rid of it."

Sima Yi greeted everyone, then activated his spiritual talent. In an instant, the legion talents and spiritual talents of everyone from Sima Yi's position to the imperial city were all wiped out.

Everyone knew that doing so would inevitably expose the fact that Sima Yi had this spiritual talent, but to be honest, if one or two of his trump cards were not used when a war was imminent, then they would really be the last resort, and it would be hard to say whether they would come in handy.

The moment Huang Taiji felt his monarch talent disappear, his expression was extremely ugly. Over the years, he had been constantly honing and deepening his monarch talent so that it could exert a power far beyond when it was first awakened.

And now that the war is about to come, his own talent as a monarch has disappeared. How could Huang Taiji not understand what this means?

What’s even more terrifying is that the person who possesses this ability to block everything is actually on the opposite side.

"Inform the officers guarding the city to increase patrols. From today on, all soldiers will receive extra meals. Prepare plenty of dry food. From today on, all soldiers will receive unlimited extra meals, and each will receive an additional year's worth of silver!"

Huang Taiji took a deep breath, suppressed all his distracting thoughts, and then immediately gave orders to the messenger.

After Sima Yi used his talent, the carpet search became more effective.

Soon a messenger came to report.

"Report, the First Yellow Sky Legion has discovered unusual movements underground in the northeast of the Imperial City. It is suspected that the ratmen are digging a passage."

Han Xin nodded to Sima Yi, and Sima Yi immediately released his spiritual talent.

"I didn't expect there would be such trouble. After such a long time, I'm afraid there must be movement in more than one direction!"

Zhang Liang measured the distance on the map and frowned. It was obvious that this distance was just the beginning of the digging.

The drizzle also explained clearly that it was to cover up the noise of these old friends digging the tunnel.

"It's a pity that Hou Tu's army is not here, otherwise we could try to block these passages in advance. Now we can only think of other ways." Mu Yi felt a little regretful.

Then he turned to look at Sima Yi. Although Sima Yi's growth was not as rapid as Zhuge Liang's, it was obvious that Sima Yi was not standing still.

To be the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, all the literati in the Asian server must have some real skills.

"By the way, Zhongda, what effect can your spiritual talent control now?"

For Sima Yi, as long as his spiritual talent can distinguish between friends and enemies, his own value will instantly increase exponentially.

In this way, commanding troops and becoming a general will not be as difficult as before. After all, the ban, regardless of friend or foe, forces everyone to fight with their most primitive qualities.

This is not good news for any legion.

However, if they could unilaterally eliminate the opponent's power without affecting themselves, or with little impact on themselves, combined with Sima Yi's level of commanding troops, even if they could not become the strongest, they could demonstrate their ability to surpass any large army commander.

As the scale of the imperial war continued to expand, Sima Yi understood more and more that in a war of this scale, supported by the maddeningly large size of each empire, ordinary legion commanders and staff officers could not affect the so-called overall situation at all. He had to elevate himself from the tactical level to the strategic level.

Therefore, Sima Yi has been studying how to use his spiritual talents to distinguish between friends and enemies, but in reality, progress has been slow.

On the contrary, in order to suppress the civil service group of the Song Dynasty, Sima Yi strengthened the upper limit and intensity of the ban.

"Reporting to the Emperor, we are still unable to completely distinguish between friend and foe, but we can currently block designated areas and adjust the strength of different areas!"

As Sima Yi spoke, he displayed his spiritual talent. Chen Gong and the others instantly felt their spiritual talent go from existence to non-existence, and then from non-existence to existence, gradually becoming stronger.

"Not bad!"

Mu Yi himself didn't feel anything, as Sima Yi couldn't influence him, but he could feel the changes in the strength of Sima Yi's spiritual talent through his connection with Chen Gong.

With this change, coupled with Sima Yi's strong ability to command troops, he had no problem taking charge.

Mu Yi didn't feel anything, but Han Xin was very interested in Sima Yi's ability.

He looked as if he wanted to capture Sima Yi and study him.

The Jedi Heavenly Connection was not only Sima Yi's idea, but also Han Xin's lifelong pursuit. To some extent, the cloud system was created for this purpose.

For Han Xin, the essence of clouds is suppression, not strengthening.

"What should we do with those rats? Should we call back the Hou Tu Army?"

"In terms of time, I'm afraid it's too late."

"Let the occult department determine where these rats will appear."

Zhang Liang pointed at several places on the map.

The Rat Fairy's combat capability is very average. Apart from digging holes and predicting the future in a short period of time, it has basically no other abilities.

However, if it appears in a place like a granary, it would be fatal.

The other party definitely didn't dig it over directly, after all, they had taken precautions before this.

But once the battle begins, the enemy will definitely take the opportunity to dig wildly, and then when the army is distracted, launch a devastating attack on their food supplies.

Even if there is a space gate, transporting food is still a troublesome task.

"Can we make a fake target for them?" Chen Gong pointed on the map. To deal with granaries and the like, the only way is to pollute and burn them.

Wouldn't it be great if they could build a fake granary to lure the other side out?

"We can make some arrangements, shoot a few more door cards, and add the refraction of light and shadow. There should be hope of luring the enemy into the fake granary!" Han Xin thought of an idea, and everyone thought it was feasible.

After all, it is better to guide than to block. Instead of trying every possible means to defend yourself, it is better to use bait to lure out the opponent and then knock him to death.

"We should prepare for both situations. Let Luoyang transport some more grain to a new granary and cover it with light and shadow. Now we have the initiative to attack, and the enemy should not be able to find our new granary."

Chen Gong thought about it and gave a suggestion.

In such an important decisive battle, you really can't treat the opponent as a fool. Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang are not here, so the halo of stupidity can't be put on the opponent.

Fortunately, Mu Yi is here, and with the protection of the imperial will, they don’t have to worry about being outsmarted by the opponent. Otherwise, the outcome of a fight would be hard to say.

When empires fight each other, the upper limits are actually similar.

What matters is the bottom line and foundation.

"Okay!" Mu Yi approved Chen Gong's suggestion. After receiving the news, Jia Xu immediately became busy.

"Can we find a way to win a quick victory at Guandu?" Yang Xiu proposed a draft.

"I mean to mobilize air power and make the enemy lose directly!" Yang Xiu tried to join the core group chat.

But unfortunately, Yang Xiu's wisdom is still a little short of the top level.

"Impossible. An army of one million cannot be defeated so easily. We cannot spare the hands to annihilate the enemy at Guandu for the time being. We can just let Jiang Wei and his men hold them back with the cannon fodder of gods and demons." Han Xin vetoed Yang Xiu's suggestion.

"Speaking of air power, I remember that Qingting has air power. It is possible that they can quickly join the battlefield from fifty miles away. How should we arrange it?" Mu Yi asked when he thought of this.

"I have prepared two fully staffed Shesheng Camp archers, which should be enough!" Han Xin vowed.

It is really easy to fight against this kind of aerial unit with the Shesheng Camp. It is very fancy and can kill the unit with one shot of will lock.

"I'm afraid it's not very safe!" Mu Yi pondered for a moment.

Shooting sound is indeed effective, but the problem is that the number for two fully-strength legions is probably a bit too little.

According to their estimates, the Qing court had concentrated at least 10,000 to 20,000 air forces, and this was still a conservative estimate.

After all, what happened to Lu Xun before is very telling.

Especially until now, they have not found the so-called real body of the family immortal, which inevitably makes people doubt whether this so-called real body really exists.

If it doesn't exist, wouldn't it become something like a phantom soldier?

But the opponent will occupy the bodies of real soldiers.

If this is the case, there may be more air units than they think.

"We should be able to help with this!" Eden, who had been silent all this time and acted as the mascot, suddenly spoke.

"The Dijiang Army can use music to change the rules of an area and set up a no-fly zone. As long as air units can't fly, they won't pose much of a threat!"

Hearing this, Han Xin nodded. The biggest problem with air units is that they can directly cross the front line, which almost doubles the difficulty of command and dispatch.

If a no-fly zone could be created, the difficulty of command would be greatly reduced for him.

"However, in this way, the blessing effect of the Dijiang Army may be weakened to the bottom, and it will take most of the power to distort reality with will!"

"Don't worry about that. I will personally come down to bless this match. Don't worry about that!"

Mu Yi waved his hand to signal Eden not to worry, as he was ready to burn the empire's will this time.

Anyway, as long as Qing Ting is defeated, all the losses can be recovered.

Or maybe it could be said that the empire's will has been accumulated for so long just to blossom at this moment.
