Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 975 Development Plan

Sima Yi's situation is extremely favorable.

Luoyang stopped increasing its efforts and simply quietly transported a batch of supplies to maintain a balance.

After all, besides Sima Yi's strategy, the empire had other things to attend to.

The martial arts tournament is still in full swing.

Compared to the speed of internal energy leaving the body, the battles between realms are much more complex.

This activity, after all, serves political purposes and cannot be conducted as freely as the battles fought against the people of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, it's a friendly competition based on martial arts, and it's a good thing for both sides.

Of course, these tasks are all done by the staff.

The generals from the three sides are already locked in fierce fighting behind the scenes.

Besides Xiang Shaoyu, who stood out among his peers with a twelve-game winning streak.

Lu Bu had to rest after a battle with Phagpa, the Grand Preceptor of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, which ended in a draw and both were severely injured.

The contest of divine will between the two sides was so intense that both were severely overdrawn and both were seriously injured.

Of course, this battle was fought under the premise that both sides were exchanging ideas and skills.

In a real life-or-death battle, one of them will inevitably fall, but in a competition, the best outcome for both sides can only be mutual destruction.

"Who's fighting whom today?" Lu Bu lay bored on his recliner and turned on the screen to watch the battle.

"It should be Zhang Yide and Chang Yuchun," Zhang Liao recalled the battle schedule.

"This is boring!" Lu Bu immediately shut down the light screen.

"These two have been fighting more than ten times already, it's not entertaining at all!"

Lu Bu was slightly speechless. Zhang Fei and Chang Yuchun had fought more than ten times, with wins and losses about equal, and the difference in skill level was not significant.

Guo Jia naturally liked this kind of evenly matched situation, as it could be used for propaganda purposes.

The most popular gambling industry in the entire city of Luoyang right now is betting on who will win and who will lose in the battle between the two sides.

But for Lü Bu, this was completely meaningless.

After all, Zhang Fei and Chang Yuchun were of similar strength and had fought many times, but their battles were lukewarm and unexciting.

"Then let's have a drink!" Gao Shun walked into the room carrying two jugs of wine.

"Gongzheng, you've broken through?" Zhang Liao said with a hint of surprise.

"Good luck! I broke through while sparring with a Ming general!" A smile appeared on Gao Shun's stern face.

My long-cherished wish has finally been partially fulfilled.

"Then we must drink until we drop today!" Lu Bu immediately ordered his men to prepare the banquet, which was good news.

"Well, after we finish our drinks today, I'll be leaving with my troops. I don't know when we'll see each other again!"

Gao Shun's expression also showed a hint of regret.

"Are you really planning to carry out the expansion plan?" Zhang Liao's expression turned serious.

"Well, I still plan to try and find another way out with the Trapped Formation!" Gao Shun said calmly.

"Why bother with all this!" Zhang Liao didn't know how to persuade Gao Shun, so he could only sigh.

He couldn't say anything about Gao Shun's choice.

After all, the Imperial Guards Wolf Riders are the most ruthless at drawing men from the heart of the enemy lines.

As the beneficiary, no amount of persuasion seemed appropriate, so he could only sigh and lower his head.

For others, joining the Imperial Guard was not an unacceptable thing, but for Gao Shun, he believed that there were other paths to take in the battle.

For this reason, Gao Shun even studied a plan to switch the vanguard from cavalry to infantry.

No matter how much research is done, the soldiers' foundation is still the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, and the most suitable for the development of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is still the Yulin Wolf Cavalry.

This was the most painful thing for Gao Shun.

"Why are you so fixated on this?" Lu Bu sighed at Gao Shun's choice.

"Everyone needs to have some aspirations!" Gao Shun shook his head.

"For me, creating the Miracle Legion is my final wish!"

Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were speechless at Gao Shun's words, and could only raise their wine cups to toast him.

People have different pursuits, and this cannot be forced.

Lu Bu pursued the highest level of martial arts, while Zhang Liao pursued large-scale army warfare.

If Gao Shun is pursuing the ultimate legion, then they really have nothing to say.

"I wish you success!"

While Lü Bu and his two companions were drinking and exchanging toasts, Zhuge Liang was selecting other personnel to carry out the expansion plan.

The so-called exploration plan is to go to another world to explore.

The expansion of the empire could not be stopped. Sima Yi's wars relieved some of the pressure, but the pressure within the empire still existed.

The more prosperous an empire is, the more talented people it has, and the more positions and platforms it needs.

Zhuge Liang also had to consider the issue of how to settle these people.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang picked up the intermittent plan to explore another world once again.

Preliminary explorations have been conducted using puppets, revealing that some worlds possess high-value resources.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang planned to conquer several worlds with high-value resources.

However, based on the current situation, the indigenous forces cannot be dealt with by ordinary legions, and even a single military spirit may not be able to handle them.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang planned to form an army of 30,000 to subdue these natives and seize the resource area.

Gao Shun is definitely the core, but choosing which legions to support is a real headache.

Although Xinghan was happy to hear of war, even an iron man couldn't withstand frequent wars.

Some legions are on leave and resting, some legions have just retired from the front line and are taking a break, and some legions have just been formed.

Zhuge Liang had to take care of everything.

However, one applicant's name still caught Zhuge Liang's attention.

"Are you going to participate in this pioneering project?" Zhuge Liang called Lu Xun over and asked for his opinion.

"Yes!" Lu Xun replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"You could easily go to Sima Yi's side and lead an army on your own!" Zhuge Liang said, somewhat puzzled.

With Lu Xun's abilities, he could stand alone wherever he went, and everyone would welcome him.

"I want to broaden my horizons!"

Lu Xun shook his head. To be honest, he felt that his abilities had reached a bottleneck. If he couldn't overcome it, he would never be able to catch up with people like Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi.

So he wanted to participate in the exploration program, to broaden his horizons in other worlds, and see if he could improve himself through exploration.

"Fine, since you've made up your mind, then so be it. I'll give you 30,000 places. These are the available slots; you can choose for yourself!"

Zhuge Liang cleverly delegated his tasks directly to Lu Xun, which is also proof of his growth. He no longer tried to do everything himself, but instead assigned some tasks to capable people to solve.

However, when Zhuge Liang saw Lu Xun's choice, he was no longer so sure.

Are you sure you want to choose these?

Looking at the list, which consisted entirely of heavy infantry, Zhuge Liang wondered if Lu Xun had lost his mind.

The choice to use only heavy infantry in battle is something even children can't sit still.

“I’m very certain!” Lu Xun was quite confident. “I’ll allocate another thousand light cavalry to you, based on the legions you’ve chosen. I hope you won’t disappoint the Emperor!”

Zhuge Liang felt a throbbing in his temples, but he managed to stay calm and sent Lu Xun a thousand light cavalry to make up for their weakness.

"Thank you!" Lu Xun nodded and did not refuse.

What are you thinking?

Zhuge Liang found it difficult to discern Lu Xun's intentions, which was already quite perplexing, and Lu Xun further interfered by using his spiritual talent to misjudge the situation.

In the end, Zhuge Liang simply gave up thinking and chose to trust Lu Xun's abilities. For him, there was no need to consider the reasons behind many things; he only needed to look at the results.

Lu Xun led 31,000 men across the spatial gate and began their journey into the other world.

"Is this the target world?"

Lu Xun looked at the locations of several high-value resources marked on the map and planned a rough marching route.

"Be careful, someone's coming!" Gao Shun, who was standing next to Lu Xun, frowned and looked up at the sky.

They had only just arrived in this world, and their army wasn't even fully in place when the other side came knocking. They certainly didn't look like easy targets.

Soon, a burly man dressed in full armor and wielding a two-handed greatsword larger than a door appeared in everyone's sight.

He stood in the void, exuding the majesty of a realm-breaking expert. However, in front of Lu Xun and others who were used to seeing experts, this majesty he tried so hard to exude seemed rather weak inside.

"Visitors from another world, state your purpose!"

"This is the territory of the Kingdom of Srid. If there is no need, please leave immediately!"

Through his telepathic abilities, Lu Xun understood the man's meaning; the other party had actually come to drive them away.

Unfortunately, according to Jia Xu's intelligence analysis, this so-called kingdom was filled with dark oppression.

Such a kingdom has no reason to exist.

At least in Xinghan's view, this kingdom needs to be completely rebuilt.

"Can you take him down?" Lu Xun turned to look at Gao Shun.

"Let me try!"

Gao Shun wasn't sure, but he nodded nonetheless.

They flew high into the sky and arrived opposite the burly man.

"Make your move!" Gao Shun used his telepathy to convey his meaning to the other party.

The words were concise, but the sense of provocation was automatically translated into provocative words in the burly man's mind.

"Cross cut!"

The enraged burly man swung his two-handed greatsword.

Gao Shun raised an eyebrow. The greatsword, which should have been heavy, was as light as a one-handed sword in the opponent's hands, while still retaining the imposing presence of a heavy sword.

With his fighting spirit rising, Gao Shun swung his knife and struck, sharing the same thought as the burly man opposite him.

The burly man's helmet shattered suddenly, and Gao Shun was sent flying by the heavy attack.

"So strong!"

A sense of surprise rose in both Gao Shun and the burly man's hearts.

The exchange resulted in a draw, with both sides suffering losses.

"No wonder they specifically transferred me here!"

After just one exchange, Gao Shun understood that the Kingdom of Srid probably had some tricks up its sleeve; otherwise, it wouldn't have bothered to mobilize a military spirit to coordinate with the 30,000-strong army.

"Come again!"

Suddenly, military spirit power surged from Gao Shun's body, wrapping around the blade and greatly increasing its power.

It cleaved the burly man's two-handed greatsword, which he had used to parry, in two.

Seeing the broken edge of the greatsword, the burly man didn't hesitate and turned to run away.

This was the first time Gao Shun had encountered such a decisive opponent. He chased after him and slashed twice, but the opponent didn't even retaliate and was only focused on escaping.

Gao Shun was willing but unable to deal with an opponent who was only focused on escaping.

"I apologize, this humble general is incompetent and failed to kill him!"

After Gao Shun returned, he apologized to Lu Xun.

"General Gao, why belittle yourself like this!" Lu Xun didn't dare to be presumptuous and personally helped Gao Shun up.

It was a game of chance, and Gao Shun's seriousness made him feel a little embarrassed.

However, Gao Shun's cooperation reassured Lu Xun a lot, as his biggest worry was that Gao Shun would not cooperate with the command.

Discord between generals and commanders is a major taboo.

Gao Shun was a senior figure with a high position and significant contributions. Lu Xun would indeed need to put in a lot of effort to win Gao Shun over, but Gao Shun's cooperative attitude put Lu Xun at ease.

"March!"

Once the entire army had arrived, Lu Xun ordered the army to advance immediately. Since they had been discovered, they should accelerate their advance and seize the first target and establish a stronghold before the enemy could assemble their troops.

Lu Xun's forced march caught the kingdom's garrison off guard. They had just received orders to be careful when Lu Xun had already come knocking on their door.

They received information that the enemy was heavily armed infantry, so they weren't in a great hurry.

But they never expected that Lu Xun would abandon his heavy armor, arrange for light cavalry to guard the camp, and lead more than 10,000 infantrymen, lightly armed and simple, directly to the destination.

Their misjudgment led to their garrison being almost instantly overrun by the Trapped Camp.

"A peculiar power system!"

Lu Xun watched as prisoners were being taken in and expressed his surprise at the unusual strength of the kingdom's garrison.

The opponent was using a power called "Battle Qi," which, in Lu Xun's view, was a special kind of internal energy.

However, the difference between the two is that the other party did not intend to develop cloud energy, but instead used the resonance between battle qi to form a military formation to increase the upper limit.

It's similar to a military formation, but without the suppressive effect of cloud energy, allowing individual powerhouses to almost single-handedly break through it.

However, this combat mode is naturally covered by the cloud system.

It is precisely because of this characteristic that three masters at the level of internal energy separation were killed while charging into battle.

This would be almost impossible in the Xinghan region.

"The level of internal energy leaving the body is called legendary, and the level of breaking through the boundary is called demigod... So, there are gods in this world?" Lu Xun learned a lot of information from the prisoners.

"Twenty-odd legends, three demigods, and a kingdom army of one hundred thousand?"

Lu Xun stroked his chin, thinking, "This is quite a challenge."

However, judging from their first encounter, the Kingdom of Srid is quite strong.

They need to proceed slowly and deliberately, and perhaps even mislead the other side to make the wrong judgment.

Lu Xun looked at the camp that was being set up.

Yes, this campsite is a good choice.

His arsonist spirit was burning; the weather was dry, making it the perfect time for arson.

The opposing team is used to fighting against thousands single-handedly, and they can take advantage of that.

Before the opponent figurees out the characteristics of the cloud formations, go for a big move and completely troll them.

The cloud formation bursting into flames was one of Lu Xun's specialties.

Of all military formations, Lu Xun's favorite was this kind of explosive formation.
