Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 900: The Final Battle Begins

"Did it fail again?"

When Huang Taiji learned of Tulus's death, his face remained completely calm; he was numb to it all.

Lost! Lost! Lost!
From the moment they came into contact with Xinghan until now, Qingting has been losing every single time, from beginning to end.

They occasionally won a few small victories, but overall they were still losing.

Having lost so far, the soldiers below may still maintain their confidence due to information asymmetry, but the officers and generals above have now become numb to the defeat.

Aobai lost, Dodo lost... Dorgon lost, Huang Taiji lost, and now, the entire Qing court only has Nurhaci who still has an undefeated record.

But soon, Nurhaci had no choice but to take action, and they also had to face a problem.

If Nurhaci also loses, what will become of the Qing court?

No one knows the answer, at least not Huang Taiji.

They tried their best to push their soldiers beyond their limits, but Thurus's failure was not an isolated case.

The Qing army currently only has three legions that have a chance of achieving a miracle. With the defeat of Turus, the other two legions have also been defeated.

One was defeated by Lü Bu.

Because he was trying to surpass his limits, he couldn't avoid Lü Bu. Before he could cross those limits, he was killed by Lü Bu's all-out burst of power.

With their commander dead, the entire army's morale collapsed instantly, allowing Lu Bu's wolf cavalry to successfully enter the ranks of the three-talented class.

The other was defeated by the First Yellow Heaven, who was driven by the First Yellow Heaven at lightning speed and crushed him in the cradle, leaving him no chance to escape.

Despite all the fancy attacks, First Yellow Heaven directly crushed the entire legion into dust.

Even though some soldiers eventually crossed into the realm of the Three Talents, they still could not resist the power of the First Yellow Heaven.

The series of premature deaths made Huang Taiji very clear that the tide had completely turned against them.

"Brother Emperor!"

Dorgon walked in from outside and bowed to Huang Taiji.

"You're back?" Huang Taiji's expression changed slightly.

Regardless, Dorgon is currently the most powerful ally, and it's always a good thing to have someone to assist him.

"What's the situation now?" Dorgon asked anxiously.

With Yue Fei around, he simply couldn't launch a northern expedition. Although he could wear them down eventually, Yue Fei's forces were limited.

However, what they lack most now is time, so he had to leave the south and come to the north ahead of time to serve as Huang Taiji's deputy, ready to rush out at any time.

"Father's transformation has entered its final stage!"

Huang Taiji sighed deeply. At present, their strength was the strongest in all the conflicts, but it was also the weakest they had ever been.

"We are about to engage in our final battle!" Huang Taiji said in a deep voice.

"I'll cut off the queen."

Dorgon said firmly that he was now filled with guilt, after all, the decline of the Qing Dynasty seemed to have started from his defeat to Sun Tzu.

That battle not only resulted in the loss of the commander of the large army and the Miracle Legion, but also the loss of dozens of good generals and hundreds of junior officers. It was a devastating loss for the entire Qing court.

More importantly, his defeat may have given Xinghan boundless confidence, leading him to initiate all of this.

He is now very clear about his mission: to step forward without hesitation and find a way out for the Qing court.

"You're going to die!"

Huang Taiji originally wanted Fu'an Kang to cover the rear, but compared to Dorgon, Fu'an Kang might not be able to hold the line against two military geniuses.

“I should have died long ago! If it weren’t for you, my brother, pulling me out of that desperate situation, I would have died on that very day.”

The two brothers, who had been estranged, sat down together for the first time in a long time and had a heart-to-heart talk. The power that had alienated them had, in turn, awakened their bond of life and death when the crisis came.

Neither of them expected that after all these years of strained relations, they would eventually open up about everything when facing life and death.

After the conversation was completely open, Huang Taiji, for the first time ever, brought Dorgon to the center of the ancestral land.

"Brother, why did you bring me here?"

Dorgon was somewhat bewildered, not understanding why Huang Taiji had brought him here, a place supposedly reserved for the emperor.

Although he had been stationed here before, he had never actually entered the area.

"What does it matter if you and I, brothers, come to see our father? This place will be abandoned soon anyway!"

Huang Taiji said indifferently that if it were before, he would never have allowed Dorgon to come here.

But now that the two brothers have already talked things out, there's nothing left to hide.

Huang Taiji personally pushed open the last door.

"Get out of my way, all of you!"

With a wave of his hand, Huang Taiji dismissed all the guards and led Dorgon to the Qing court's greatest secret location.

"This……"

Dorgon looked at Nurhaci lying in the coffin, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"This is the biggest secret of our Qing court!"

Huang Taiji calmly addressed Dorgon.

It's called a secret, but it's actually quite simple: Nurhaci, at the cost of his slumber, transformed into a dragon vein and forcibly devoured the fragmented imperial will of the Ming Dynasty.

Later, the practice of shamans visualizing household spirits was adopted, and these spirits were used to exploit the people. Nurhaci exploited his household spirits to support his own growth.

The so-called household spirits were all Nurhaci himself, so Nurhaci also began to have the characteristics of household spirits.

Today's Nurhaci is more like a monster than a human. Apart from his human form, he is almost completely unrecognizable as human.

But it is precisely this existence that allows him to control the power of this region. Now, Nurhaci is only one step away from fully awakening.

However, upon awakening, Nurhaci would also lose the ability to control the power of the region.

It has a certain sense of harmony between man and nature. The former can possess all power but cannot leave this place, while the latter can leave this place but cannot control it freely.

But leaving is inevitable. This place can only be a temporary haven. If they really treat it as a safe haven to live in, what awaits them is no different from the will of Brahma on the Himalayas.

In the end, they will all be reduced to the role of power banks. Moreover, the ancestral land cannot sustain the living expenses of so many people in the long run. As long as the connection with the outside world is cut off, they will be trapped here sooner or later.

Moreover, Mu Yi's presence also means that this is not an absolutely safe zone.

What Nurhaci could interfere with, Mu Yi could also interfere with.

If the entire country falls into Mu Yi's hands, they might not be able to escape even if they wanted to.

Therefore, they only have one last path before them: to go to North America, then re-establish their nation in the Americas, remotely control the Central Plains, and drag Mu Yi down with the quagmire of war.

Xinghan cannot possibly place all its forces in the Qing court, so if this drags on, Xinghan will truly be worn down by the Qing court.

Therefore, the final war was fought by Bai Qi, who completely annihilated the Qing army. Without this army, even if Huang Taiji and his forces fled to the Americas, they would not have been able to integrate the local forces and would still have been caught up by Xing Han and defeated one by one.

Or rather, after leaving the Central Plains, Huang Taiji and his forces, without military strength, would become the losers, and those feudal lords who divided the country would not mind taking the emperor hostage to command the other lords.

More importantly, Huang Taiji and his people couldn't guarantee that a situation wouldn't arise where someone would be willing to be the ruler of the empire regardless of who they were, as they simply wanted to be a vassal king.

Leaving the Central Plains signified the Qing Dynasty's defeat, and such a landmark event would give rise to other thoughts in many people.

Nurhaci projected his image using light and shadow.

“The more I actively use the forces around me, the more I am pulled back to reality. The last thing I can do now is to improve the basic quality of the army as much as possible,” Nurhaci said wearily.

He had to suppress his awakening while dealing with Mu Yi's harassment from another dimension, and now he also had to transfer as much power as possible. Even a will-based being like him would feel exhausted.

"Can miracles be created?" Huang Taiji asked the question that concerned him most.

“No, the power of miracles comes from surpassing the limits of the world. All I can do is raise the lower limit of the soldiers.” Nurhaci shook his head.

If miracles were so easy to create, he would have already piled up his power to create them; unfortunately, he couldn't.

"This enhancement is a one-time event, and it will probably give all soldiers the minimum strength of the Imperial Guard."

"However, don't be too happy yet. After I fully awaken, the power that was once unclaimed may become half for each of us. At that time, it may give the entire battlefield an unprecedented boost and suppression."

Nurhaci was somewhat helpless. If Mu Yide hadn't existed, he would have had plenty of time to gather the scattered power after waking up, and it wouldn't have been a dream to either empower the soldiers or take it away.

However, with Mu Yi present, it's highly likely that each side will influence half of the situation, at which point these forces will significantly distort reality.

Or perhaps it means that if a region with a high density of the essence of heaven and earth is formed, the strength of the soldiers will become so exaggerated that even Nurhaci could not predict it.

This problem also troubles Xinghan's side.

The higher the density of the essence of heaven and earth, the greater the destruction and lethality that will ultimately result, which is clearly more in line with the interests of the Qing army.

Their requirement was that the power be as small as possible, so that they could annihilate the enemy within the encirclement to the greatest extent possible.

It is important to know that using one's elite talents in a place rich in the essence of heaven and earth will achieve several times the effect.

At that time, the effect of matter will be infinitely reduced, and Guan Yu's swordsman might be able to shatter a heavy shield without defensive talent with a single strike.

However, Xinghan was prepared and planned to use the secret technique stakes that were being driven in to suppress the essence of heaven and earth on a large scale.

Of course, this effect is based on Sima Yi's spiritual talent.

The military formation and secret techniques amplify Sima Yi's effectiveness, while the thought link connects the strategist group, thereby expelling the essence of heaven and earth or enhancing the effect of the cloud formations.

In short, the strategy is to remain unchanged in the face of all changes, suppress the increase in destructive power as much as possible, and keep the intensity of the war within a controllable range.

The brief meeting ended, and everyone went back to their respective duties.

War broke out quickly, because for the Qing army, the longer the war dragged on, the more fortresses the Hou Tu army could build.

After their attempts to destroy the enemy from a distance failed, the Qing army quickly mobilized all its troops to prepare for a breakout.

Huang Taiji was responsible for breaking through the encirclement and confronting Bai Qi head-on, while Dorgon was responsible for setting up a defensive line on the spot to block the reinforcements from Sun Wu and Han Xin.

The moment Nurhaci awoke, the previously dim sky suddenly became stormy, as if in response to Nurhaci's power, with dark clouds obscuring the sun and lightning flashing rapidly.

Mu Yi smiled as he looked at the dark clouds in the sky. Commanding wind and rain was something any strategist could do. Nurhaci was even resorting to such petty tricks, which meant he really had no other trump cards left.

The soldiers on Xinghan's side had seen this kind of thing many times before, so they were completely unfazed by it and it wouldn't have any effect whatsoever.

However, if the other party does not take the initiative, Xinghan is willing to buy some time, since their large-scale strategic secretariat also requires advance preparation time.

"Come on, Nurhaci, let's begin our war!"

Mu Yi completely infiltrated his mental energy, beginning to frantically penetrate this out-of-control, unclaimed area.

Mu Yi collected a large number of unclaimed consciousnesses, but encountered obstacles when he was about to plunder half of them.

"Come!"

Mu Yi and Nurhaci were like tug-of-war, each desperately trying to draw all the power into their own hands.

However, for a time the two sides were evenly matched. After all, Mu Yi's momentum of victory over Nurhaci was overwhelming. If it weren't for the fact that this was Nurhaci's own territory, the situation would have been different.

Nurhaci was not even qualified to compete with Mu Yi.

"How's it going?"

Zhang Liang asked nervously, "Han Xin and Sun Wu have already set off with their army. What we need to do next is to go all out."

"Just as expected, half for each of us!"

Mu Yi roughly assessed the situation and nodded to Zhang Liang.

Just as Xinghan was about to take action according to the plan, the Qing army activated the prepared secret technique first.

What's the best secret technique for dealing with a completed structure?
Without a doubt, it was a major earthquake.

"Grand Secret Technique, Earth Collapse!"

The Qing army's strategists, who were connected to all the secret nails, locked onto all the secret nails when the army began to break out. The resonance magic was directly injected into the earth from the secret nails, and all the war zones suddenly shook. The earthquake began!
"I never expected it to be such a secret technique!"

Bai Qi frowned, looking helplessly at the collapsing fortress complex. This move from the other side was indeed quite deadly.

However, this was a secret technique that was expected.

By making the opponent's uncontrollable secret techniques controllable, the risk factor is greatly reduced.

"Grand Secret Technique: Relative Stillness!"

Xu Shu's side also activated a great secret technique. They had anticipated the secret techniques prepared by the Qing army and naturally prepared corresponding counter-secret techniques.

The earth, which had been trembling, instantly returned to stillness. The tremors did not disappear, but correspondingly, everything in the area began to tremble in unison.
